It dawned on me that I immediately understood the cause and effect.

When we crawl through the straight passage, there must be some kind of mechanism hidden in the walls on both sides of the passage or under the ground.

We stumbled upon the trap, so the passage forked.

Maybe the mechanism was relatively small, and I didn't trigger it when I climbed over, so I walked into the straight passage.

But Cui Hao accidentally touched the mechanism while crawling, so he chased me to another road.

It seemed to him that I had disappeared out of thin air in front of him with a flashlight.

And I didn't even notice that he was behind me and had disappeared like this.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly turned around and groped around on the ground, looking for as many mechanisms as I could.

This mechanism is relatively secretive, and it is impossible to locate its specific location without careful searching.

I fumbled around and quickly identified my target.

There was a faint bump somewhere on the ground below me, about the size of a palm, because it wasn't large.

I noticed that every time I touched the place, the light from my flashlight would deflect around the bend in front of me.

It seems to be a hidden mechanism in this position, which changes our direction.

"We're also very lucky, there are quite a few such bends ahead, and neither of us is lost, it seems that we haven't touched that deadly mechanism."

I finally know why it's so small underground, just to increase the chance of us touching the mechanism.

If someone who doesn't understand this kind of mechanism keeps crawling underground, then they have to keep changing passages, and sooner or later they will get lost underground.

It's also thanks to the fact that I once learned some things about this from Aunt Hua, so I quickly found the key.

Otherwise, I don't know how long Cui Hao and I will have to get lost underground.

I immediately turned my head and quickly shouted at the entrance where I came.

"Fatty, can you hear me?"

I pressed the mechanism and quickly crawled back into the bend of the road.

Sure enough, I saw that dead end again.

I knocked on the wall, put my mouth on the wall and shouted at the other end.

"Fatty, can you hear me? Are you still on the other side? ”

There was no response from the other side of the wall, but there were two equally banging sounds.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fatty, why don't you speak? I'm knocking on the wall so you can hear, what's going on over there? ”

However, in the face of my questioning, Cui Hao didn't say a word, and he was completely silent.

I knocked on the wall again, but it was still quiet.

I suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Just when I shouted Cui Hao's name again to the passage.

On the right side of my head, his voice could be heard.

"Little Manye, I seem to be lost. Not long after you left, a couple of big rats the size of a basketball came from the front, and I said what that rustling sound is, and the emotion is the movement made by these ghosts. ”

Cui Hao's voice trembled a little, obviously frightened.

"I didn't dare to stay where I was, so I immediately turned around and rushed out, and I finally stabbed a few rats with my knife and threw them all away, but I don't know where I came now."

I took a deep breath and looked back at the wall in front of me.

Again, I reached out and slammed it on the wall twice.

"Fatty, can you hear me knocking on the wall?"

Cui Hao was silent for a moment, as if he had recognized the voice.

I knocked on the wall a few more times, and then Cui Hao answered.

"I heard a little bit, but if you don't lie on the ground, it's hard to hear you knocking on the wall, what are you going to do when you knock on the wall?"

I swallowed and asked Cui Hao again.

"You're in the upper right position above my head now, and your position should have changed again. Are you sure you're not in the original passage right now? ”

Cui Hao's voice was quite affirmative.

"Of course it can't be in the same passage, because I'm now in a straight passage with no walls at all. When I was talking to you just now, I crawled to a dead end. ”

I was cold.

Since Cui Hao had already climbed into the other passages, he didn't hear me knocking on the wall.

So what is it that just gave me two responses?

I didn't dare to think deeply, and immediately responded to Cui Hao's speculation.

In other words, there is a way out around the corner, and you carefully grope around the corner to see if you can find the corresponding switch. Then remember that where there is wind, there should be a way out. ”

As soon as I flipped the switch around the corner, I could already feel the change in my surroundings.

I couldn't feel anything in the corners, and it was extremely dry and calm.

But when I shifted the commutation execution channel, I could vaguely feel a cool breeze rushing towards me.

I think there must be hidden vents in this passage.

And that's the switch for me to find the barrier of the way out.

Not to mention whether the two of us can find the exit of the hole smoothly, there are now attacking basketball-sized rats underground, and the unknown thing that responded to my two knocks on the wall.

It's so weird down here, we two have to meet up as soon as possible, lest we get dead underground.

When Cui Hao heard my conclusion, he immediately nodded and said that he would find a way out now.

I turned around and turned around again, and went back to the corner where the two of us were lost, and switched straight aisles.

I'm just here quietly waiting for Cui Hao to come over.

I waited for nearly half an hour, and everyone was about to fall asleep leaning against the wall.

Suddenly, I felt my back sink and a hand rested on my shoulder.

I was shocked and immediately raised the dagger and slammed it backwards.

Cui Hao's mother screamed, and fell to the ground with a buttocks.

"I'll go, Xiao Manye, you almost shaved my handsome face."

I saw that it was Cui Hao, and I breathed a long sigh of relief.

I withdrew the dagger and lifted him up from the ground.

"It's you, you don't open your mouth to shout, you almost scared me to death."

After speaking, I glanced around, and I still haven't figured out where Cui Hao crawled from.

I didn't even see a way out and a passage.

Seeing that my face was dazed, Cui Hao stretched out his hand and pointed to the long road when he came.

"I saw a light on your side when I crawled over just now, but in order to avoid some weird ghost, I didn't dare to squeak, but crawled over silently. After crawling up to you to make sure it was you, I reached out and slapped you, I didn't mean to. ”

I nodded.

It's a very cold and strange place underneath, and there's all sorts of unidentified things.

The more careful the two of us are, the better, Cui Hao's way of dealing with it is no problem at all.

I immediately pressed the switch and switched the channel of execution, and this time I directly tied my hands and Cui Hao's hands with a rope and crawled straight forward.

"We should have two forks in the road here, and in simple terms there are four ways out, and we're going to climb ahead and mark them at the same time."

I took out the candle Cui Hao had given me earlier and glued a few candles to the ground to mark it.

Wherever there is a switch, I stick a candle on it.

"So in about four times, we should be able to find a way out."

I immediately took Cui Hao through the turn and continued to walk straight forward.

Almost ten minutes later, I felt a cold wind blowing in my face again.

I shuddered, and at the same time I had a bottom in my heart.

With such a cool wind, I must have found a way out.

As expected.

After we crawled forward for a few dozen meters, I saw a square hole in front of me.

It seems that I didn't climb the wrong passage before, and I actually found the way out in one go.

If it weren't for Cui Hao's sudden loss, maybe I wouldn't have had to go out of this place with so much effort.

I cautiously stared at the hollow in front of me and dragged the excited Cui Hao.

"Don't worry, press the urine under the ground, I'm afraid there will be more dirt in front of here, you be careful, follow behind my ass. I'll crawl forward slowly, and you take out your weapon as well, so that if there is any danger, we can react in time. ”

I immediately pulled out a dagger and held it across my chest, and with my other hand held a flashlight and shone it directly at the hole in front of me.

I'm afraid that something will suddenly come out of this hole to attack Cui Hao and me, and the head-on killing is the most terrifying.

Cui Hao nodded, and quickly took out the weapon on his body.

"Don't worry, even if a few ghosts emerge from the ground, if they want to catch you, I will snatch you back with them."

I rolled my eyes at him with disdain.

"Then I really thank you!"

I turned and crawled into the passage ahead, continuing to crawl towards the square hollow.

It was getting colder and colder, and my frozen teeth chattered.

Cui Hao is no better than me, and his voice even has a bit of gnashing of teeth.

"I'll go, what's under here? Why is it so cold? ”

I shook my head, took a deep breath, and crawled to the very end of the passage.

I held up my flashlight and shone it down the square passage, which was extremely quiet, and the darkness inside the passage seemed to have a great deal of benefit.

My flashlight couldn't light it up for a while.

"I don't know what is ahead, let's be careful when we go out, there seem to be steps down here, you follow me down slowly."

I touched forward and shone my flashlight down.

It turned out to be a staircase built into a stone wall, and instead of a traditional step, it was a rectangular protrusion carved out of the wall, just enough to accommodate two feet.

The bulges are distributed in a zigzag shape, and if you don't have any skills on your body, you can't climb down here on foot, and you may fall to your death in the middle of the road.
