Chapter 115: Exploring the Basement

Since coming back, Jiang Bai and Du Yiheng have used various coding methods to try the technique of Tianzi character extraction, but all of them have no effect.

This villa should be hiding other clues.

After a careful search, all the corners were searched, and even some objects were moved slightly.

Still inconclusive.

At this time, they sat in the living room on the second floor, thinking.

Stella also sat in a corner to help us think.

"By the way, I heard Chen's mother mention the basement before."

Jiang Bai suddenly thought of it, so he asked, "We have only searched the first to third floors, and we haven't found the basement yet." ”

"Basement?"

"There's a basement, but it's not a good night." The basement I remember was weird and horrible. ”

She explained that she had been to the basement when she was a child, but for some reason the door closed inexplicably, and she was locked inside for a long time.

Since the lights were broken at that time, the basement was dark. It left a psychological shadow on Stella at that time, and she never went to the basement again.

"It's okay, Sister Stella, just a few of us."

Yan Xiyue comforted, "I can't make it difficult for you." ”

Stella sighed, helped Jiang Bai find a few flashlights that could be used, and led them to the door of the basement.

"This is here, be careful when you go down."

The fear in her heart gradually came to her when she saw the door in the basement.

"Don't worry."

Jiang Bai said, turned on the flashlight, and pushed open the door of the basement.

Yan Xiyue followed Jiang Bai closely, followed by He Dazhuang and Du Yiheng.

The staircase down the basement is rotating, and when it comes to the bottom, Jiang Bai doesn't know what direction it is.

Under the light of four flashlights, the appearance of the basement gradually became clear.

The basement of this villa looks a lot more spacious than a normal villa.

It seems that the main function is to put clutter.

In addition to a few light bulbs and bits and pieces, there is even an old piano inside.

"There's no light, it's so dark."

He Dazhuang said and looked for the light switch.

It didn't take much effort to find the switch at the top of the staircase.

But no matter how you flip the switch, it just doesn't light up.

"Let's see if there's any hint first."

Du Yiheng said, starting to search from the left, "Let's search separately from both sides." ”

Jiang Bai and Yan Xiyue started their search from the right.

He Dazhuang and Du Yiheng did not find any helpful tips for cracking the password in a lot of scraps and templates.

Instead, they found something similar to a carpentry hammer, saw, knife, or the like.

If you look closely, there's still a little red stuff on it.

"It can't be blood! I'll go, is this for dismemberment? ”

When He Dazhuang saw these objects, his heart was a little cold.

At this time, there were some frictional sounds at an inopportune time, which made him more and more afraid.

"Look clearly, it's rust."

Du Yiheng picked up one of them and looked at it, the dark red on it was clearly not stained with blood.

"Huh? What about Jiang Bai? ”

At this time, He Dazhuang suddenly felt that there was no sound on the side.

The flashlight shone over, and I found that there was no one on the other side!

"Jiang Bai!"

He Dazhuang screamed, but no one responded.

"Let's go and have a look."

Du Yiheng said, "They were there just now." ”

As he spoke, they walked towards the place where Jiang Bai had searched before.

The basement is not small, but not too big either. It stands to reason that the location where He Dazhuang's flashlight shines just now should be able to find Jiang Bai.

At this time, Jiang Bai and Yan Xiyue were thinking behind a wall.

They're looking for possible clues.

However, Yan Xiyue seems to have encountered some mechanism.

Then, somehow, they fell to the other side of the wall.

"We're on the other side?"

In the dark environment, Yan Xiyue groped for the wall and said, "I may have encountered some mechanism just now." ”

"Looks like this should be the Chamber of Secrets."

Jiang Bai said, looked around with a flashlight, and took out his mobile phone to look at it, but there was no signal.

It was something that had become instinctive to him.

There are all kinds of cases in the mysterious space, and there is no shortage of such cases that escape and solve the case after entering the secret room by mistake.

The surroundings look a little old, and there are quite a few cobwebs scattered around the corners.

The road ahead is even darker, and there is no end in sight to a flashlight with a small amount of light-gathering ability.

This shows that there is a lot of space inside.

Jiang Bai got up and pulled Yan Xiyue forward, "Follow me, don't get lost." ”

As he moved forward cautiously, he thought to himself.

Looking at the surroundings, this secret room should have existed for a long time.

Yan Xiyue can easily enter by mistake, why did Chen's mother say that she had never seen the secret room?

There is only one speculation, Chen's mother is lying.

And judging by the amount of dust in front of me, it seems that someone should have cleaned it here.

No one has walked for two years, and there can't be only a little dust on the ground.

"It looks dangerous inside, should we go back and wait for help?"

Looking at the darkness ahead, Yan Xiyue frowned.

"No, there is no cell phone signal, they may not be able to find us"

Jiang Bai said calmly, "We can only move forward, be careful." ”

He pondered the structure, remembering that the villa was halfway up the mountain, so there should only be two directions.

First, continue from the inside of the mountain; Second, go out of the mountain to the side of the road.

Either way, there should be a way.

In his spare time yesterday, Jiang Bai also searched the mountain where this villa is located.

It is called Longming Mountain, and it is said to be the place where the dragon roars.

Advance can attack Kyoto, retreat can be based in the mountains, has always been a battleground for soldiers.

Therefore, it is impossible that no one has been doing something in the mountains for so many years.

According to Jiang Bai's speculation, they should be in an "ancient secret passage".

It is likely that Stella's aunt and uncle stumbled upon the passage connecting to the Chamber of Secrets.

That's why it was remodeled into what it looks like now.

One is to prevent anyone from prying eyes, and you can hide inside when there is a crisis.

Going deeper, the walkway is slightly longer and the surroundings are starting to show some different appearances than before.

Several walls stood in front of them.

It looks like it's coming to an end.

On the other side, Du Yiheng and He Dazhuang searched in the basement.

Jiang Bai and Yan Xiyue were never found.

That's when they start getting anxious.

"That's how Aunt Stella disappeared, right?"

He Dazhuang said a little anxiously.

"No, Mother Chen didn't say that Stella's aunt didn't come back after she went out of the main gate."

Du Yiheng analyzed, "They should have found the secret room by mistake." ”

"So what do we do?"

He Dazhuang asked, "You can't wait here, can you?" ”

"Go up to Stella first, wait, Mama Chen!"

Du Yiheng, like Jiang Bai, thought that Chen's mother might be lying.

Chen's mother said that she had lived here for a long time and should not know about the secret room.
