Chapter 15: The Basement of the Castle

The silence in the back kitchen was eerily low in the faint line of sight.

Jiang Linxian squinted, as if he was watching the movement of the kitchen door.

Wang Yuanqi and Zhao Peng held their breath, afraid of being discovered by Jiang Linxian, a 'pervert'.

Since he dares to eat people's hearts and drink human blood, it is estimated that he will not blink an eyelid when he kills someone.

Hearing Jiang Linxian's footsteps gradually, the two immediately exited the gate and left slowly.

When you get out of the back kitchen, you can quickly run towards the dormitory.

Jiang Linxian watched the two of them leave, so he walked to the pool and wiped the blood from his mouth.

After taking three bowls of human blood, he quietly left the back kitchen.

It's already eleven o'clock in the evening.

At this moment, there is not even a living thing to be seen in the castle.

Except for the faint light on the walls, it looks like a dead and silent building at the moment.

As he passed by the corridor window, Jiang Linxian inadvertently looked up at the window.

A red blood moon hung high, looking very terrifying.

He couldn't help but quicken his pace, lest something bad happen after twelve o'clock.

A dense black fog formed inside the castle unconsciously.

The corridor where Jiang Linxian walked seemed to have no end.

It made him feel very strange.

"At the usual time, I'm back in the dormitory at this point."

Jiang Linxian had a premonition of something bad in his heart.

"It's been a long walk for me."

Around the corner of the hallway, the echo of chains dragging the ground could be heard.

Jiang Linxian took out the blood-colored ghost stick and walked forward cautiously.

"Here."

Suddenly, a hand slapped him on the shoulder from behind.

Jiang Linxian's tense nerves suddenly reflexively swung his ghost stick back.

He paused when he saw the figure.

"Why are you here?"

Jiang Linxian squinted his eyes and asked curiously, this person was Ji Ningxue who wanted to cooperate with him.

"Follow me."

Ji Ningxue motioned to Jiang Linxian not to make a sound, then hooked her finger at him and walked towards the corridor behind her.

Jiang Linxian followed closely, and the blood-colored ghost wand was held tightly in his hand to avoid danger.

Ji Ningxue walked around a few corners and stopped in front of a closed door.

She slid her hand over the door a few times, and it slowly opened.

Immediately after, the two walked in.

Closing the door, Ji Ningxue listened carefully at the door, and waited until the sound of the chain disappeared at the end of the corridor before explaining to Jiang Linxian beside him: "The ancient castle at night is very dangerous, especially after twelve o'clock. ”

A large amount of black fog will appear from all directions, and the castle will be full of demons."

"The appearance of the black fog today is an hour earlier, and I feel that something bad will happen in the next few days."

Ji Ningxue said seriously.

Jiang Linxian frowned slightly, glanced at her, and asked curiously, "You come out at twelve o'clock every night?" ”

"Almost." Ji Ningxue replied seriously.

"Then it looks like you're not a newcomer." Jiang Linxian said: "The newcomer doesn't have the courage to dare to come out at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night to wander. ”

"I'm really not a newcomer." Ji Ningxue said, "I was able to enter the newcomer dungeon through a quest item. ”

"But this newcomer copy doesn't feel like a newcomer at all."

"How?" Jiang Linxian asked.

"When it gets night, something changes here." Ji Ningxue replied: "Every night when I come out, I can always hear some roars coming from the ground, like the miserable cry of human beings. ”

"There should be a secret passage leading to the underground, I feel that there should be something terrifying there, but I haven't found the entrance to that secret passage for several days."

Hearing Ji Ningxue's words, Jiang Linxian didn't know where to start for a while.

"You mean now we need to find that dark passage." Jiang Linxian said.

Ji Ningxue nodded and looked at him: "I feel that you are not a newcomer either, maybe you are like me, you have some kind of prop to come to this newcomer dungeon." ”

Jiang Linxian didn't answer this question, and continued: "I believe that you should have searched a lot of places in the past few nights, and there are still areas that you haven't visited, we can search them." ”

"I've basically searched for them." Ji Ningxue shook her head and said, "But I didn't find any entrances. ”

"The sound coming from below, where is the loudest." Jiang Linxian asked,

"Back kitchen." Ji Ningxue said, "I always suspected that there was an entrance there, but I searched that place very carefully, but I didn't find anything. ”

"Maybe I do." Jiang Linxian thought for a moment and said.

After saying this, the two quietly came to the back kitchen.

The back kitchen door is hidden.

After the two of them slipped in, Jiang Linxian looked for a few places without hurry, and finally opened a giant barbecue grill.

He crouched down and walked in, knocked on the inside wall of the barbecue, and then stabbed hard with his ghost stick.

A secret door to the underground suddenly appeared.

There was a terrible cry from inside the secret door, as if someone was suffering greatly.

Ji Ningxue, who was squatting behind him, suddenly showed a different gaze.

She didn't understand when Jiang Linxian discovered this secret passage.

I searched for three days without any results, and this person found the clue as soon as he came.

"Go down and have a look?" Jiang Linxian's adrenaline surged up at this moment, and he turned his head to Ji Ningxue behind him and said.

Ji Ningxue nodded and took out a black dagger.

Jiang Linxian glanced at it, thinking that it should not be an ordinary thing.

Slowly descending along the dark passage, the human shouting gradually became louder.

The dampness around the tunnels was incomparable.

Jiang Linxian held on to the wall with his hand and walked down slowly.

When he raised his hand, he found that his hands were covered in blood, staining his white gloves bright red.

The temperature is gradually decreasing, and it seems to be a little cooler.

The two of them finally walked to the end of the tunnel, to a large empty basement.

The roar of the humans came to the altar in the middle of the basement.

The candle flames around the room danced violently, and Jiang Linxian felt a trace of coldness behind him.

There was blood all around, as well as human limbs and internal organs.

Some have rotted and stenched, while others are still fresh.

In the very middle of the altar, a naked man is tied to a stone slab.

His body was trapped by countless green threads.

Bright red blood oozes from the skin of the body cut by green silk threads.

The blood flowed down the green thread to the stone slab where the man was lying, and then to the stone tray below.

It's just that when the blood of the slate flows down, it turns green.

Inside the stone plate, there was already half of the green liquid.

The man continued to roar, not taking Jiang Linxian and Ji Ningxue seriously at all.

Ji Ningxue stepped forward slowly, frowned at the man in the middle, and whispered, "This person is dead, I didn't expect to be able to maintain such a miserable roar." ”

"Half-dead?" Jiang Linxian asked.

"It's not." Ji Ningxue explained: "It should be some kind of curse that keeps him in the state of the moment when he dies." ”

"Men have been screaming in the last moments of death." Ji Ningxue said: "The blood below has turned green, if I guess correctly, it should be evil energy." ”
