Chapter 919

In the darkness, looking at Sang Lan's bright eyes as bright as the night stars at close range, I could only remain silent.

In this case, if she can turn back to save me, it is equivalent to betting on her own life. What else can I say?

Sang Lan said: "When I was in the front hall before, I sensed a ghost nearby, and deliberately relaxed the spirit platform to attract that thing... to attract that person to attach to me. Whether you believe it or not, I can be sure that she is Xu Jie!"

She suddenly sighed, "I originally wanted to keep her in my body, but unfortunately, I was flashed into my eyes by the lightning, and I was distracted by her. But this is good. I know who she is, at least I can be sure that she will not harm you."

I suddenly realized that I realized why she was in that state before. After thinking about it, I asked, "Can you feel what kind of way she exists?"

Sang Lan's eyes showed a hint of confusion, as if she didn't know how to answer me, but after hesitating for a moment, she said:

"Of course she is not a living person to possess me. I can only say that she has a lot of resentment, just like... it seems that she has been carrying resentment for several lifetimes..."

As he was speaking, a "buzzing" sound came from above and the elevator in front of him began to slowly rise up.

Perhaps this elevator does not exist at all, but even if it is illusory, the oppression it brings is so real.

As soon as I suddenly got rid of this depression, Sang Lan and I both breathed a long sigh.

"Get out of here quickly!"

Sang Lan turned over and crawled to a corner with his hands and feet. Only then did I see that there was a hole with a diameter of no more than two feet. There were some bricks of debris piled up outside the hole, which was obviously dug open not long ago.

I followed Sang Lan, got into the hole, crawled forward all the way, and became more and more frightened as I climbed.

This secret passage used by the tombmakers to escape was not as close to the blocked passage in the utility room as I imagined, but was tilted downward, very narrow and winding.

At first, the inner wall of the secret passage was still in red brick structure, but after climbing a while, the red bricks turned into old blue bricks. Further forward, with the lightning, I saw that the cave wall was completely piled with bluestone.

No, the so-called tomb of the Living Dead is definitely not an ancient tomb, but a nest built by a demon with ulterior motives in recent years.

According to time calculations, Sanyiyuan Hotel has been built less than 20 years ago, but why do I feel that this secret passage seems to have existed for more than a hundred years?

"It's the end, be careful."

When I heard Sang Lan’s reminder, I realized that I had reached the end.

The exit is indeed a relatively spacious passage, with a height of less than two meters, barely able to stand upright and width that allows two adults to walk side by side.

This passage has tilted downward steps, and each step is carved with a whole piece of bluestone.

The hole where Sang Lan and I crawled out was on one side of the passage, in a hidden corner.

Seeing the situation clearly, I became more and more suspicious.

Although I know nothing about archaeology, my own feelings tell me that this ancient channel is by no means a product of recent decades.

I didn't see anyone around, so I asked Sang Lan: "Where are Lao Jian and Zang Zhiqiang?"

"I don't know, when they dug the hole in the elevator trough, I heard you shouting on it and went up to find you. At that time, in order to restrain Xu Jie, I couldn't talk much, so I didn't say much to them."

I felt moved again when I heard her say this.

It’s okay for Lao Jian, but Zang Zhiqiang is still unreliable. At the critical moment, only Miss Sang will return to help me regardless of her life...

"They should go down first." Sang Lan looked at me, obviously she had no idea at this moment.

I originally wanted to go down without hesitation, but when I saw the timidity in her eyes, I would rather go up and check the situation first.

I am not a tomb robber of the Tushima. I can do my best to achieve my goal without hesitation, but I cannot be responsible for this woman who sacrifices her life for me. I don’t know what dangers will be. I must first figure out the overall situation and explore the way out.

The two of them walked up the stone steps not long before they reached a corner. Seeing the situation on the other side of the corner clearly, I felt a chill in my heart.

Judging by the direction, the final exit of this passage should be in the utility room.

But now not only the entrance of the utility room has been sealed with iron plates, but also a large number of gravel and blue bricks are piled up inside.

Zang Zhiqiang was right. Someone deliberately sealed the entrance to the utility room, and it was completely sealed and could not be done anymore.

The retreat was blocked, so the two of them had to bite the bullet and turn back down. During this period, I put away the flashlight and lit up the fire eyes that Zang Zhiqiang gave me.

First, compared with this original fire-induced lighting tool, I believe that flashlights can be more emergency at critical moments; secondly, the flame can be used to judge the circulation and direction of air in the channel.

The two of them illuminated them with their fire eyes and went downwards. Not long after, cold sweat oozed out of my back.

The bluestone staircase is not smooth. After counting it, we returned from us and walked for less than five minutes. However, based on the drop of the steps, our location is at least more than ten meters away from the ground.

Such underground projects may not be anything to modern technology, but the projects here can never be built with great fanfare and modern construction machinery.

After going deeper than ten meters underground, it is all the most primitive stone steps... How much manpower and financial resources does it take to achieve this?

"What is that?!" Sang Lan suddenly whispered.

I looked at her and looked down with my fire eyes. The lighting range of the fire eyes was limited. I saw that it was hazy five or six meters away, and there was nothing unusual.

However, Sang Lan stared at her and whispered: "It seems like there is a gatehouse below."

"Gate Tower?"

My eyelids twitched, and I didn't bother to ask her, and pulled her to continue walking down.

After walking for a while, with the light of fire, I saw a faint view in front of me, and it seemed that there was a white gatehouse.

"You have such good eyesight, can you see this?" I looked at Sang Lan in surprise.

"Aren't you asking your good sister Hu Qiaoyan for your good sister?" Sang Lan gave me a blank look, "Don't say more, go down quickly."

As the two of them advanced, the scene below became clearer and clearer.

The passage widened unconsciously, and at the end was indeed a strange-style gatehouse.

What's even more strange is that the gatehouse is pale overall, but there is a dark thing hanging in the middle.

Before she could walk down the gatehouse, Sang Lan had already started to tremble all over.

The truth is, I am not much better than her.

Because both of them had seen clearly that the gatehouse was not built with white jade stone, but was made of white bones.
