But he said that no matter what Liu Tao felt in his heart and what kind of foresight he had for the future, after hurriedly going home to prepare for a trip, he was taken away from Songjiang Mansion by his father who couldn't wait.

The car company sped all the way, there was nothing to say on the road, and after about three or four hours, it finally came to a place.

This is already a mountainous area, it is the earliest place for the Liu family, the ancestral house of the Liu family is not far from the deep mountain village, Liu Tao has been here many times since he was a child, and now he has to come back to worship his ancestors every year.

After leaving the car, Liu Fang motioned for Liu Tao to follow, but turned onto a remote path, seemingly walking towards a barren mountain behind a barren mountain that is not often passed.

"Are we going back to our ancestral home?

Liu Tao couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, and finally asked out loud.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't!"

Liu Fang habitually reprimanded, and finally couldn't help sighing, and responded softly for the first time, "That's it, you have such a big incident this time, and Dad can't explain it to the family, so I have to let you hide first." There are some things that I should let you know. ”

"The place we went to this time is the core secret of our Liu family, don't say more, don't ask more, when you get there, you just pay more attention and be careful." If you see anything that you can't see, you treat me as if you didn't see it, don't lose your child's temper. ”

"Be kind to your cousin, your dad and I don't stay often, when I'm not there, Liu Tong, this kid is a little bully, not afraid of heaven and earth, dare to do anything, if you annoy him, be careful that you will regret it for the rest of your life." ”

"Although Dad is now in front of this family and is in charge of some things, but the Liu family is still your grandfather in charge after all, with your grandfather protecting Liu Tong, your father and I can't do anything about him, in short, you are more careful in everything. ”

A lot of chatter, but the really important thing is that he didn't miss a word, Liu Tao already knew that his father was thoughtful, and he had never been a good character, so he just nodded wildly in a muffled voice at the moment, and just followed all the way.

Unexpectedly behind the barren mountain, there is a pig farm of considerable scale, looking at it from a distance, Liu Tao is also quite surprised.

Just as they were about to walk into the pig farm, Liu Fang took Liu Tao around a corner and came to a small wooden house near the pig farm against a cliff.

A shriveled old man, who at first glance looked like an ordinary pig farm worker, was coming out of the cabin.

"Third uncle, is there any situation?"

Liu Fang asked with a flat face, as if he was accustomed to it, and habitually handed a cigarette to the old man.

"Well, the bastard stared at you all the way when he came back, and he didn't find any heels behind, when you came over the trail, Silly Qiang also carefully checked it, no one followed, no dog followed, and nothing was seen in the sky, this time it should be no problem. Any other means are useless, even if there are satellites in the sky staring, they are not afraid, our bird land, satellite pictures are interfered. ”

The old man took the cigarette with a smile, and a mouthful of big yellow teeth was exposed, and he took two puffs while lighting the cigarette, and said in a low voice.

After speaking, he also glanced at Liu Tao with a kind face, Liu Tao hurriedly smiled at his teeth, but he wondered when he had such a third grandfather, and sure enough, there are still several sets of teams in the family, and the hiding is really deep...... Of course, it turns out that this is useless after all, and the things that should be dug up will inevitably be dug up, of course, he won't say anything about it, just honestly just watch.

"Fangzi, why are you in such a hurry this time, is there anything wrong, why did you bring your kid over, haven't you always been reluctant to bring Xiao Tao here?"

Liu Fang's face was a little unpleasant, he smiled reluctantly, and explained, "Xiao Tao caused some trouble, I brought him over to avoid the limelight, and when he was fine, let him come out, and let him learn a lesson inside, so as not to know how to cause trouble." ”

The old man nodded knowingly, "Okay, then you can go in, I'll lock the door for you." ”

As he spoke, he made a way out and let Liu Fang and Liu Tao and his son enter the cabin, and then locked the door from the outside.

After all this, the old man leisurely took out his cigarette pouch and smoked two puffs, and then picked up the hoe and picked up the vegetable patch next to the cabin, everything seemed to be very ordinary, not to see it with his own eyes, no one would think that in such a place where birds do not, there are still some unknown secrets.

In the wooden house, Liu Fang didn't know how to tinker, opened a secret passage, and after letting Liu Tao go in first, he also walked in, and he didn't know where to tinker, and the secret passage was locked with a click.

Behind the dark passage was a semi-natural cave with slight traces of modification, and after entering here, Liu Fang was obviously much more relaxed...... He obviously didn't notice it, and just as he entered the secret passage, an inconspicuous little grasshopper scurried under his feet, of course, even if he did, I'm afraid he wouldn't think it was a problem.

"Okay, if it's inside, it should be safer, and I'm not afraid of someone staring at it. Xiao Tao, you follow me, don't lose it, this place is very weird, the tunnel sometimes seems to change, sometimes walking, and people will be lost, you pay attention to cheer up, don't make any mistakes. ”

Liu Fang said a few more words, and without waiting for Liu Tao to ask, he plunged into the deep dark passage, if he hadn't taken out a flashlight immediately, it would have been so dark here that his hands couldn't see his five fingers.

Liu Fang walked and stopped in front, shaking his flashlight from time to time and shooting a few times in all corners of the cave tunnel, as if observing some subtle traces, and from time to time he had to reach out to look at his watch.

There was silence in the cave, except for the sound of the two of them walking, and only the sound of ticking water could be heard from time to time.

Liu Tao walked very hard in this dark passage, walking and walking, he found that the cave under his feet began to accumulate water, and the amount of water was getting bigger and bigger, and it was not long before it had soaked through his shoes, and even extended above his ankles, the cold and cold feeling made him feel as if there was a water ghost spinning under his feet, as if he was going to pull him as a substitute for the dead ghost, and inexplicably gave birth to a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart.

"Dad, the water is rising very quickly here, is there a big flood, will it be dangerous?"

"Well, there will be dangers, but I'll keep an eye on them, don't worry, no problem. This time I came too panicked, this is the only way I can take temporarily, I don't usually take this road, don't talk, so as not to affect my attention, if you take the wrong road, maybe you will drown in a fork in the road, and no one will come to save us at that time. ”

Liu Tao quickly shut his mouth and followed honestly, not daring to make a mistake.

And what gave him a greater sense of comfort in his heart was the tunnel network that appeared in front of him in the form of a transparent screen in his eyes, which seemed to be behind him, and he didn't know that he had infiltrated an invisible army, which quietly explored the entire unfathomable tunnel system, and slowly drew a map of the tunnel system with huge branches.

In this tunnel system, a thin green line marks the route that Liu Tao walked all the way, and he himself turned into a constantly beating point of light, constantly exploring deeper into the tunnel network.

To Liu Tao's secret surprise, this tunnel system is really like what his father said, it is constantly changing, with the continuous action of water, rocks and other elements in the tunnel, one by one the tunnels are quietly evolving, and within dozens of minutes at the earliest, a tunnel that can be walked through before will slowly become a dead end and a trap.

Just imagine, if you don't understand the rules, walking in such a complex and terrifying tunnel network, I'm afraid that no amount of life is enough to consume, and I don't know how the old lady of the Liu family discovered this secret, could it be that he found some treasure map?

Liu Tao didn't dare to ask, he knew that these questions were asked in vain.

I don't know how long I walked, but in a certain ordinary place in this tunnel, Liu Fang stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"It's here. ”

"Isn't this a dead end?"

"Wait a minute, you'll know, you're tired, take a break, you'll have to walk a little later. ”

The father and son took off their shoes immediately, Liu Fang was prepared, took out two dry towels, and wiped their feet, finally not so uncomfortable.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, Liu Tao was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out, but he saw a little light in front of him, but it turned out that under a slight earthquake, the dead end in front of him was actually cracked by a living earthquake, allowing the two to see the light of day again.

"I'll go, that's too exaggerated, isn't it?"

Liu Tao couldn't help but ask, "Dad, is there a mechanism?"

Liu Fang didn't even let him not ask, obviously he couldn't understand such a thing, he didn't know what power was playing a role in the underworld, he just shook his head at the moment and said, "I don't know what the situation is, I've seen a lot, it's not weird, as for why, I don't know the reason for this, I can only say that the creation is mysterious, breathtaking, just get used to it." ”

Out of the tunnel, there was a lush forest in front of him, Liu Fang didn't mean to go deeper into the woods, but just found a flat stone pier next to the cave entrance and sat down.

After resting for a while, he looked at his watch, and Xu felt that the time was up, so Liu Fang immediately took out his knife, cut some branches in the woods next to him, picked up some dry firewood, and lit it after forming a bonfire with dry firewood.

"Okay, wait, your cousin Liu Tong will come to pick us up in a while, wait until you get to the place, take a shower and sleep, you will know that you have not eaten in vain today's bitter meal." ”

"This secret base of our Liu family is an absolutely good place!"
