The number of branches in the tunnel changed from three to five, which originally meant that it had become more complicated. Yan Xing also studied it carefully. When he first heard the little Lolita say that there was an intruder, he was a little unable to react at first.
Intruder Intruder
With little Loli's words swirling in his mind, his eyes were still scanning the five tunnel entrances. After about half a minute, his thinking paused. Little Loli, you said there are others."
Le Yun said that there were intruders, so she calmly turned on her hearing and smell, listened to the noise in the tunnel, and distinguished others from the smell left in the air. How far had the intruder walked? After a while, he heard Handsome Yan's reply and almost wanted to yell at him. His reflex arc was really long.
"Yeah."
"There really are tomb robbers"
"How do you know it's a tomb robber?" How did handsome guy Yan decide that he was a tomb robber Wan? One is that he accidentally fell in like them.
“If you are not a thief, why would you come to the tomb in such a good way?”
“According to what you say, you are also a tomb robber. "It's a thief"
"I was just passing by." Yan Xing finally understood why Xiao Loli's tone was a bit harsh. It was because he and she were also in the underground tomb, and he said that the people who came to the maze were all tomb robbers. Thieves, that includes them.
Le Yun stopped arguing with handsome guy Yan and was more serious with the Yan people. The only one who was angry was herself. She listened around and heard no vibrations, which meant that the person had gone far away and there was no need to continue reconnaissance.
She is not very curious. Whether it is a tomb robber or someone who enters by mistake, there are only three possibilities for entering the Jiuqu Veranda. One is that there are professionals who can find the route to the birth gate or find the way to the formation. The central route, then, no matter what, she and they will meet in the end;
Secondly, if those people don’t have enough food and can’t find a way out, they will only be trapped and die; thirdly , well, that refers to a very unlucky person who makes a wrong choice and accidentally enters the door of death, steps on a mechanism and is killed in minutes, or accidentally enters the center of the mechanism, triggers the mechanism to change the formation, and finally gets trapped in the corridor with no way out. , the ending is still a dead end.
Therefore, Le Yun has no intention of looking for other intruders. If there is no danger, she will take the other intruders out when she retreats. If there is danger, of course she will wipe the soles of her feet. The oil fled.
Don’t blame her for being cold-blooded. After all, saving people is out of humanitarian spirit, not legal obligation. From a moral perspective, there is a moral obligation to save people, but from a legal perspective, there is no obligation to save others.
What's more, she is the only daughter of the Le family, and she has a father and a new mother to support. If something happens to her, it will be difficult for her father to survive without mental support.
The others no longer knew which corner they had gone to, so what were they waiting for? Leyun no longer hesitated, held her head high, and headed straight for the first tunnel on the left.
The little Lolita was in a trance, taking the lead and vowing not to look back. Yan Xing naturally followed her lead without hesitation and ran along without stopping.
The two of them either go in tandem or go hand in hand, navigating through the intricate and endless tunnels.There are edges and corners in the road, this appears and the other is lost, enjoy it.
The tunnel, which has not seen the light of day for many years, is cool and empty. Occasionally, there is water seepage in some places, stalactites are condensed, there are even tiny moss in some places, and a layer of white dust is condensed in some places. If someone looks carefully, they may be able to find that there are actually murals carved on the stone wall.
However, due to countless years of vicissitudes, the carvings on the murals are light and the pictures are hidden in the color of the stone wall. It is difficult to show the true appearance. The tunnel looks like it has been dug neatly.
In a tunnel, four backpackers were walking like ghosts, each carrying a large black backpack and wearing waterproof and moisture-proof black hiking clothes.
All four of them are men. One is about fifty years old, relatively voluptuous, with a shy beer belly. He holds a small mahogany sword in one hand and a compass in the other. They lead the way and occasionally talk. He was still reciting something, but no one could hear clearly what he was reciting.
The other three are all between thirty and forty years old, two are neither fat nor thin, one has a Chinese character face, is relatively fair and gives the impression of an intellectual; one is a dark-faced man, who looks like a perennial He is as dark as the sun, a healthy red-black color; the other is a thin man, the shortest among the four, which is what people say that concentration is the essence.
The four people's faces were slightly pale, their lips were scorched, a bit like they were dehydrated, their hair seemed to have not been washed for a long time, there was a layer of grease, their hairstyles were messy, and there was a circle of blue around their eyes. The shadow is obviously due to lack of sleep, and there are bloodshot eyes in the eyes, which makes him look even more tired.
The group of people did not walk fast. The old man with a beer belly had strong steps. The man with black face and the thin short young man were weak and lacked energy. The man with white face felt more top-heavy and his steps were frivolous. .
Two of the four of them had their headlights on to illuminate the road. As they walked together in the empty tunnel, the footsteps of different weights echoed, making people feel like they were alone in the end of the world. feel.
The long darkness has no edge, and five more tunnels appear in front of the tunnel.
The four of them walked slowly to the intersection where they needed to choose. The old man with a beer belly faced the tunnel in the middle, adjusted the compass, and analyzed the direction and angle. Soon, he selected the direction that represented good luck and walked into the right hand direction. The second tunnel on the side.
The three men behind him followed closely and walked into the long and endless road.
"Master Ao, can we really get out?" The long blackness infected the surroundings and infected people's hearts, and the voice of the speaker was filled with despair.
They have been walking for five days, and every time they thought that the end of the tunnel would be the exit. However, the reality is always so cruel, the end of the tunnel is still a tunnel, endless.
Five days, not five hours. I don’t know how far I have walked for five days, but I am still in the tunnel. You can imagine how much pressure everyone has in their hearts. It is so great that it makes people happy. Collapse makes people desperate.
Is it really necessary to be trapped and die in this strange place for no apparent reason?
Everyone’s emotions are on the verge of collapse, but the hope of survival isHope makes me hold on to my life, telling myself over and over again that I will go out, I will definitely go out
"Four eyes, we will definitely be able to go out."
"Four-eyes, don't be anxious, we will definitely find the disciple."
Master Ao hasn't spoken yet, Monkey Spirit and Black Potou comforted Four-eyes, Four-eyes is the nickname of the fair man, he was originally He wears glasses, so he is jokingly called "Four Eyes".
Monkey Jing is the nickname of a short and thin man. He is short and lean, and is as flexible as a monkey. People in the industry call him Monkey Jing. A man with a black face is naturally dark-skinned, and no matter how he maintains it, he is not white, but looks like burnt black. The bottom of the pot is therefore euphemistically called the black pot head.
Master Ao is a person in the world, nicknamed Yi Gua Ling. He helps people tell fortunes, read Feng Shui, etc. and only calculates one hexagram, never two hexagrams.
The four of them are not old acquaintances. Siyan, Black Potou, and Monkey Spirit are old acquaintances and part of a team. Master Ao is a solo explorer. When they were exploring an ancient tomb They met in an accident and formed a temporary team.
The four people mistakenly stepped on a mechanism in an ancient tomb and fell into an underground river. They were washed to a shoal and then found a tunnel. They walked into the tunnel to find a way out, and ended up trapped in it.
Now, five days have passed, and the tunnel is still endless. Because there is not enough food and water, the hope of Siyan is being wiped out bit by bit, and the hope of survival becomes increasingly slim.
Although Monkey Spirit and Black Pottou no longer have much hope of getting out of the maze, they still try hard to calm themselves and comfort their companions. They cannot be confused. If their minds are confused, their power to survive will disappear. There is really no hope.
"Brother, don't panic, we can get out." Master Ao also understood the mood of his companion, and walked forward without looking back, explaining as he went, "When I was washed here by the water, I After a calculation, even if this trip goes through a lot of hardships and there are no dangers, once the opportunity comes, the flowers will bloom on the bank of trees."
"Master, when will the opportunity come? It will be evening soon. Ah." The black pothead held his dark face, feeling a little weak.
"The opportunity should be with Brother Monkey Spirit. Brother Monkey Spirit will meet a noble person today at the time of fortune. With the blessing of the noble person to protect us, we will surely turn bad luck into good luck and have a bright future."
Siyan heard that the monkey spirit is lucky to be a noble person, and when he meets a noble person, he can turn bad luck into good luck. His decadent spirit was refreshed, and he felt motivated again. He felt that his feet were lighter, and he no longer walked as if he was walking with lead. Heavy.
"I am lucky." The monkey spirit was stunned. He was just an ordinary person who ran a small business to support his family. He did not make a lot of money or lose a lot this year. Generally speaking, he could support his family. As for He has never met a so-called noble person.
"You have." Master Ao smiled meaningfully, "A noble person does not necessarily mean someone who can bring you great wealth and great wealth, and the destiny of a noble person does not mean that you will embark on the road to great wealth and great wealth from now on. , Whoever's luck can help you avoid disaster is the luck of noble people. The person who can make you safe and worry-free, whether he is an official, a farmer, or a passerby, is your noble person. "
"Oh." The monkey spirit understood that noble people are not judged by status, but by whether they can borrow someone's blessings to protect them at that time.
"Master Ao, it's now 4:23 pm." Shen Shi, that is, from 3 to 5 pm, to 4:23 pm, which is also the end of Shen Shi. It only takes a short time to meet the noble person
Besides, this is a tunnel that goes underground for who knows how many meters. If anyone comes to meet the noble person, it is possible that the person falls from the sky
Hei Guotou is very concerned about Numerology and the like are half-believed and half-disbelieved. People like him have a very special nature of work. To put it bluntly, they are fighting in reverse, and to put it more ugly, they are tomb robbers. They follow some old traditions of fighting and do not accept death.
p>
Not many people suffered retribution, but quite a few got rich overnight. Even if some were caught in the situation, it was because they were greedy and did not know how to stop, so they were exposed; those who made a lot of money still died in the end. It is relatively desolate, and it is purely caused by poor management of the family, causing family members to fight for property, or caused by one's own extravagance.
Therefore, Hei Guotou sees clearly and does not despise the charlatan Feng Shui magician. He believes in the charlatan and does not blindly trust the charlatan as if he is a god.
Master Ao heard the implication of Heiguotou’s words and knew that he did not believe in his own words and did not explain much. He was very confident in his own divination, and the divination predicted that the monkey spirit would be lucky to be a noble person that day, and the time would be auspicious. It should be at the time of application, then you will see for yourself when the time comes.
Master Ao stopped talking. Monkey Spirit and Black Potou kept their eyes open and kept their strength. They followed Master Ao forward to the other end of the long tunnel.
Shuaiyan Yan and classmate Le Xiao, who were both walking in the maze tunnel, passed through forks one after another without any rush, and their speed was several times faster than Master Ao and his group.
Yan Xing followed the little Loli at a trot. When he found other intruders, the Little Loli said that he should speed up and rush to the center of the formation before evening to avoid accidents. As a As a military man, he has great physical strength, and running thousands of miles with a heavy load is a piece of cake, so he carries a not-so-heavy backpack and can trot along effortlessly.
Not to mention Le Xiao, if she hadn’t taken care of Handsome Yan, she would have turned on running mode and run forward by herself.
Walking through another crossroads of five choices, Le Yun’s sensitive nose captured the smells that had been captured before. The smells scattered in the air rushed into her nose. Her brain was like a washing machine. The dehydration barrel rotates at high speed to analyze the details.
With just a click of a finger, the information from the smell feedback to the brain analysis was finalized. There were four foreign intruders, all of whom were injured and had wounds on their bodies. Moreover, some of the wounds may not have been treated in time. , has suppurated.
After collecting the information, Le Yun frowned and guessed based on the smell that the four were not too far away from them. If there was no accident, the two sides would meet on the way.
"Yan people and other intruders also entered this tunnel. "In order not to scare Handsome Yan when he suddenly sees someone, out of humanitarian spirit, Xiao Le gave Handsome Yan a friendly reminder.
"Hey, you said others are here too" Yan Xing followed Xiao Luo Li ran and ran, and was surprised to hear little Loli mention the other people who ran into the maze again, right? Other people have arrived too. Is it possible that they will meet face to face
To be honest, he He doesn’t want to meet other people, whether they are enemies or friends. Enemies may have to fight, but fighting is not scary. What he hesitates about is whether to use all his strength or reserve when fighting with others.
If you meet an ordinary person, you may have to travel together. He doesn’t want to team up with others. It’s just him and the little loli. They can share food when they are hungry and drink water when they are thirsty. His food He is extremely willing to choose for the little loli. Others are strangers, so he is not willing to contribute the small amount of dry food he brings to irrelevant people.
In general, he knows that he may meet other people. Young Master Yan is in a depressed and unhappy mood. He can't let the little Loli meddle in her own business. If he has any say in the little Loli's affairs, he will definitely tell no matter who he meets, ignore them and let everyone go their separate ways. Yangguan Road, everyone crosses their own single-plank bridge.
"Well, if we go, we may meet each other. " Le Yun Yun ran away lightly.
Young Master Yan had to keep up with the little Lolita's footsteps. The two of them jogged for a while, and sure enough they saw a bright light flickering in the darkness ahead.
p>Just when they saw the bright light looming, at the other end of the tunnel, Master Ao, who was leading the way, also saw a faint light in the distance, and was overjoyed: "Brother Monkey Spirit, your nobleman has appeared."
