Chapter 165 "Tunnel to the Abyss - Down" (2)
"I'll go first, okay?"
Everyone was silent and nodded silently, so Guan Tianxiang snatched Toby's flashlight as domineering as possible, and his left foot had already stepped into the starting point of the abyss. He shot the beam of his flashlight downwards, and sure enough, it only illuminated a thick fog, and he couldn't see the situation below. Luckily, as Toby said, the wall opposite the entrance really has a metal bar of about the same height, connected by two vertical metal bars, which must be the staircase she is referring to.
After dozens of hours, countless killings and strange witnesses, Guan Tianxiang has no reason to retreat...... Without saying a word, he stepped on the nearest step with his left foot and embarked on a journey of discovery.
I realized that the hollow tunnel was really eerie......
A tunnel to the abyss.
"Then Ah Xiang will go down and take a look first, see what the situation is below, and we will wait and see what happens." Fan Guofu stretched his waist.
His words passed into the pipe, and Guan Tianxiang, who had already stepped down several steps, couldn't help but shudder. Guan Tianxiang volunteered to become a pioneer, but the winner of society hoped that Guan Tianxiang would become a white mouse and go to the soup for him......
"Impossible, if Ah Xiang goes down, it's too dangerous, who will be responsible for something?"
A weak female voice came from the garbage room into Guan Tianxiang's ears, and she was heartwarming.
"In the same way, if something happens to him, we are all in dire straits, and we all wait for death together." Fan Guofu unscrupulously justified himself, but Guan Tianxiang felt creepy.
"If that's the case, I'll go down with him."
What?
Toby is indeed a world-class beauty...... 's gentle and considerate, meeting her is 100% fate.
After some arguing, they still reached a consensus, everyone would climb down the stairs one by one, and the problem of the white mouse would be solved.
Guan Tianxiang reflected the light of the flashlight upwards and shone on the top of the pipe.
Due to the low visibility, he only illuminates the bodies of Toby, Aisi, and Mao. Toby was on top of him, and the kitten obediently clung to Toby's right shoulder, silent. Aisie is above Toby, and Mao is above Aisi.
Although he could not see it clearly, Guan Tianxiang had already imagined that the garbage rooms on the 23rd floor were connected above, with a dilapidated ceiling at the top.
Guan Tianxiang accidentally shone on the bottom of Aixi's skirt above...... In a tense situation, he really shouldn't be distracted, but seeing her long snow-white legs and lines, he still blushed. Elsie seemed to notice his move, and covered the bottom of her skirt with her hands shyly.
Weird...... In addition to what he shouldn't see, he witnessed the bewilderment again.
What happened to Essie......
Guan Tianxiang shone the flashlight down and continued the long exploration of the pipeline, although it only continued to shine in the air.
"Toby...... Just thank you, if it weren't for me I'm going to come down by myself. ”
"Scare?" Toby, who was above, cautiously approached Guan Tianxiang's slow downward climb, and his voice was soft: "You don't need to say thank you to me." ”
Illusory happiness ripples in my heart.
"You concentrate a little bit, haha."
"Well...... "In the midst of endless darkness and unknown trembling, it is really a comfort in sorrow to be able to share the hardships with a lovely and kind girl like Toby......
Guan Tianxiang climbed down, and a sense of mystery arose, which may have a lot to do with what happened on the 14th floor. At that time, he only walked up 6 floors from the 8th floor to the so-called 14th floor, but it seemed that he had walked more than 10 floors, and when he stared up on the 14th floor, there were still countless steps above, which was like a strange reincarnation to the extreme......
At this moment, the terrifying oppression of being trapped forever once again swept through the whole body. Will it be, there is no end to this pipeline......
They're just repeating a terrible cycle, going down until they're exhausted and falling into an endless, physics-defying alien space.
Guan Tianxiang looked up and saw that he could no longer see their original entrance, and intuitively judged that he had climbed down about three floors. The only sound that echoed in the pipe was the "snapping" sound of everyone touching the metal ladder of the garbage chute, and there was no sound of speech at all.
Perhaps, everyone is also holding their breath, their emotions are too tense, and they don't want to speak.
Since the flashlight had to shine down, Guan Tianxiang looked up and could only barely see Toby's long legs under his denim shorts and white and blue striped sneakers.
He thought to himself that if the people above had any rebellious behavior at this time, he would not be able to resist it at all...... Since the excessive silence only added to the strange sense of emptiness, he couldn't help but shout, "Toby...... You're there, aren't you? ”
"Huh? Ah Xiang, I'm here, haha, don't worry. Toby's voice echoed loudly in the darkness.
He let go of a lot of worries, and for the time being, everything should be normal.
"Ah Xiang, what did you just say thank me?"
"Scare?" Guan Tianxiang was left and right in Toby's question, because he finally saw an exciting scene.
On his back, there was a metal plate identical to the entrance to the pipe, with the word "6" printed on it in red paint.
The connecting metal plate of the garbage room on the 6th floor relieved his doubts about the infinite reincarnation pipe. He hurriedly called to the top and told them that he was already on the 6th floor.
"Why so slow! I usually tell you to do more exercise! Judging from the voice, it was Fan Guofu.
"Fuck, I still don't see a shadow of you, old man." Every time Ah Mao responded, Guan Tianxiang couldn't help but smile.
He slowed down slightly, firstly, because his swollen and painful right foot would have to rest for half a minute, and secondly, he wanted to illuminate the flashlight on the "6" metal plate and take a closer look
He couldn't help but gasp, shivering in the relatively cool pipes......
A little bit of blood oozed from the metal plate...... When he looked closely, the blood had dried up...... However......
Why is there blood here? Could it be, there were people on the 6th floor who escaped in this way, but they have been killed in this metal plate location...... If so, will they be on the same path......
"Ah Xiang, don't worry, the blood has dried up, even if something happens, you have a pistol." Toby quickly understood Guan Tianxiang's thoughts, and hurriedly encouraged Guan Tianxiang to go on.
"Hmmm......"
"Just now, I told you not to pull out your gun, because I was afraid that the sound of gunshots would attract more gangs and abnormal people, but now in the pipeline, it will be fine to have a party."
"Partying?" Guan Tianxiang laughed, "You are so humorous. ”
"Thank you! Haha, we might as well have a party after we get out of here. Toby chuckled, she didn't know that Guan Tianxiang's thoughts at this moment were mixed with fear and happiness.
Guan Tianxiang no longer answered, and continued to crawl intently. Envisioning a better future is often the best way to comfort yourself
I don't know what, it pressed on Guan Tianxiang's back. Fearful, he accidentally dropped the flashlight, and the light of the flashlight kept falling...... Fall down......
With a "poof", the whole pipe returned to damn darkness.
Guan Tianxiang, who was sitting on pins and needles, shivered, and the only reason was to wonder what caused the touch just now......
