Chapter 55: A Chance Fork in the Road
"I didn't expect there to be people in this room. Tu Shen breathed a long sigh of relief and said with some surprise.
"He seems to have run out, and there really seems to be a way out here. Jass seemed to see hope.
"What's wrong with you?" Shi Ting asked when he saw that Deng Ke had been staring at the hemisphere intently.
"That person ......" Deng Ke said in a trance, still looking at the hemisphere. "It's nothing, I just think the person is familiar, like ....... Hey, nothing, it must be an illusion. He shook his head vigorously, as if he was about to shake something off.
"Dang Dang!" there was a rough knock on the door behind him.
"They must be here. A cold mountain man said.
"But we can't go in here, we can't go in!" said another cold mountain man.
"And what about them hiding here?"
"Then I can only wait for the approval of my superiors before going in. You watch here first, and I'll send a message to the keepers. Rest assured, it's a dead end, they can't run away. After the Lengshan man finished explaining, he ran back.
"Dangdang. There was another knock on the door, "Are you guys inside?" called the cold mountain man.
"It's so stupid, who would answer him?" Jass glanced at the door with contempt. "Let's go over to the hemisphere, where the man ran away. She said.
Several people went around the small narrow side of the hemisphere to the other side of the hemisphere, and sure enough, a hole was dug in the wall there.
"Did that guy do it?" Stine felt that whoever he was had done a good thing.
"Probably, let's go in and have a look. Deng Ke said.
"It can't be a trap or something, is it?"
"Probably not. Deng Ke's intuition came from nowhere, which made him very confident in it.
The four of them walked in one after another, and it became pitch black in front of them. I don't know where this is going, or if there is one. They fumbled through the walls, moving where they could. After walking for a long time, there was still no sign of an exit, and Shi Ting was a little worried.
"I say, how long are we going to go?" he muttered as he looked into the endless darkness ahead.
"You don't think we're going up all the time, and the temperature around here seems to be getting colder. "Yass doesn't feel the stuffiness of the smelter anymore.
"yes, I feel it, maybe we're going to get out. Deng Ke kept walking forward as he spoke.
"Eh, I don't understand, how could you have guessed that there would be a way out behind this closed door?"
"Oh," Lamp Ke smiled, "I'm honest, I probably know a little bit about this." When I came back from the keeper, didn't I say that I had run from a cave to a mass grave? I think the cave seems to be on top of this tunnel, and if you keep walking, you should be able to get out. ”
"How do you tell this cave is up here?"
"By feeling. However, I can't be sure, and you know that I don't have a strong sense of bearing. Deng Ke laughed to himself.
"yes, and if someone hadn't dug a hole in the wall, there would have been no way out behind the door. Brother Ke happened to be right. Toshen was blunt.
Deng Ke smiled, "Tu Shen is right, who dug a tunnel here?" he thought and quickened his pace.
The temperature around him was getting lower and lower, and Deng Ke's whole body began to tremble. Yasz, Sting, and Tushen were already wrapped up in their clothes.
"We seem to have reached the mouth of the tunnel. Deng Ke said as he touched the edge of the hole.
"But I still can't see anything. Yasz said.
"There's a cold wind blowing outside," he said, crouching down and touching the ground outside the cave. "You can go, it's like another tunnel. ”
"That's right, but this tunnel leads in both directions, where should we go?" asked Tu Shen, who had already walked out, running left and right.
"Tu Shen, how can you say go in, just go in, that's dangerous. Deng Ke stood up and said worriedly.
"It's so cold here, I think we'd better go with the wind, so at least we won't go to the outlet. Yass stepped out as well, he suggested.
"I agree! Stine said, standing next to her.
"Why are you all ......?" Lamp Ke's eyes widened.
"It's alright, Dengke, it's just another tunnel, come here. Jass comforted him......
Lamp Ke cautiously walked out of the hole, groping for the walls of another tunnel and continuing to hurry. The cold wind blew from behind, freezing his teeth and chattering. Suddenly, he suddenly remembered the fork in the road he had walked in the well, and there was also a cold wind blowing in one direction, and he chose another way because he was afraid of the cold. So, could the road they are taking now be the one where the cold wind blows at the fork in the road? If so, then they will see the well in the well when they go out of here, and then they will be able to walk out of the well and go outside. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he wished he could get to the fork in the road quickly to make sure. The tunnel seemed to be considerate of his eagerness, and it wasn't long before they came to another fork in the road. Deng Ke ran out first this time to find out, but no one expected that hurried footsteps sounded outside the cave.
"Oh my God! It's the Lengshan people who have come to arrest us. "Stings were nervous.
"Shhhhhhhh Yass whispered a reminder to everyone, and several people held their breath and waited quietly.
Footsteps stopped at the fork in the road.
A woman's voice asked, "Where do I go?"
After a moment, the young man pointed to the tunnel where they were and said, "This way." ”
So saying, they ran in.
Because the tunnel was narrow, the few people couldn't dodge for a while, and they could only collide together.
"Oops!" I don't know whose shout startled everyone, and they all jumped nervously.
"Who!" said almost several people together.
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?" suddenly became a mess in the darkness, I didn't know who was asking, I didn't know who was asking, and for a while, everyone was confused.
"Why are you here? Who are you?" the young man who came here lit the fire lamp in his hand, and the lamp Ke only felt that he looked very familiar.
"I'm Zhan Dengke. "Who are you?" he asked.
"Zhan Dengke?" repeated the boy and the woman.
"Dengke, are you crazy?" Yasi hated to cover Dengke's mouth in time.
"It's really you, Zhan Dengke. Mu Gulan moved the firelight closer to Deng Ke's face, and Deng Ke also saw the young man's appearance clearly, he was Xi Ke. "I'm glad to see you, but why are you here?" he began. Jass was even more surprised to hear the word Sico, and she hurriedly covered her heart to prevent it from popping out inadvertently.
