Forty-two wells downwind

Meng Shuai was suddenly shocked, looked at the bottomless well and said, "What?"

Rong Lingqi waved his hand impatiently and said, "I'll let you go first."

Xiao Mo couldn't help but say, "Why let him go down first? Isn't that too dangerous?"

Rong ordered him to turn his head and look at Meng Shuai coldly.

Meng Shuai's face calmed down, but then he said simply: "Okay." He took a step and approached the basket.

Xiao Mo hurriedly shouted, "Don't go down! I don't know what's underground. Isn't it a search for death if I continue like this?"

Meng Shuai spread his hands and said, "Someone has to go down first. There are only three of us. You are not suitable and he refuses. I can't go down. Do you have to wait for the zombie to be beaten up here or turn against each other? I'll go down first."

Anyway, the mechanism of this cradle is so complicated, it doesn’t look like a trap. Compared to outside...

Even in this quiet garden, Meng Shuai heard the noisy voices approaching outside. These voices put pressure on him and made him make a decision quickly.

At critical moments, try it.

Rong Lingqi nodded slightly, showing a hint of satisfaction, but then he lowered his face, raised his hand and threw a dagger, and said, "Take it down and defend yourself."

Meng Shuai said, "Thank you. Sister Xiaomo, use the fire stick for me." Then he broke a few bamboo branches and took them for later use. The bamboo branches were still damp and were not easy to light, but at this moment, he had to use them.

As a result, Meng Shuai sat on the basket and sank little by little.

Although the deeper the depth, the last ray of light was also obscured. Meng Shuai only heard the sound of dripping water sometimes on the well wall. In addition, everything was silent.

He closed his eyes, slowed his breathing, and carried the Great Circle with his internal force.

When Meng Shuai dared to come down alone, he naturally had reliance on it.

Based on his experience in living in another world over the past few months, this is not a world where fairy foxes and ghosts are rampant, nor have he heard of any monsters - what Shui Sigui said doesn't count. Therefore, he is 80% sure that he will probably not encounter any wild monsters in the next shaft.

The most worrying thing is the foul air and fog barriers that are harmful to humans underground. Meng Shuai is more resistant to these things than ordinary people because he has the ability to breathe the turtle.

The breath-retention technique of Turtle Breathing Achievement can already absorb breathing and minimize the frequency of breathing, but only stop external activities and reduce consumption. The water breathing technique goes a step further. It is essentially the formation of internal breathing, which forms a self-circulation in the body. It is not a matter of external affairs. Although it is not possible to completely isolate the breath of the outside world, it can also spend a few hours safely in closure. At that time, he should have walked out of this channel.

In the darkness, the basket stopped falling with a thud.

It's dry underneath, without water, and not much moisture. It seems authentic and only says it's more reliable.

Meng Shuai held his breath, slapped the rope three times, and then walked forward slowly.

Before I could take a few steps, I heard a sudden sound, and the basket behind me suddenly lifted up, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the darkness.

Meng Shuai only felt his hair standing upside down and his hair was creepy - without a basket, it was equivalent to breaking his back!

Did he guess wrong? Rong Lingqi threw him down with bad intentions from the beginning just to deal with it?

This doesn't make sense.

Not to mention how he and Rong Ling had no grudges in the future and no grudges in the near future. From a strategic perspective, he should not be left alone...

Why do you have to put Xiao Mo down with him?

Thinking of this, Meng Shuixin suddenly lifted the basket up, and the one who came down from below might be Xiao Mo. Xiao Mo would not be careful of anything. The two fell down the well at the same time. Rong ordered him to cut the rope on it. What if?

shudder.

Meng Shuai was thinking about it all, and suddenly felt a chill coming and he was clever.

It's not that he was scared, but that it's really-

The wind is blowing.

The cold wind blew past his side, causing the corner of his clothes to float up. Meng Shuai looked at the side and felt confident.

When a wind blows, it means that the air underground flows. Not only is it likely to have an outlet, but the possibility of toxic gases is also reduced, and its safety is greatly increased.

He is too suspicious. People are prone to random thoughts when they are in empty and dark places, and Meng Shuai is no exception.

When I was lit up the fire, Meng Shuai looked around carefully.

The entire shaft is made of smooth stones, polished without any hand, and almost no trace of the cracks of the rocks is visible. It has always been to prevent people from climbing or sliding down. A slightly larger stone chamber is formed under the shaft, which is square, and there are no other traces except for the inevitable water seepage in the corner.

Looking beside the king, Meng Shuai saw a horizontal hole on the right. The entrance of the hole was narrow enough for a person to walk sideways. The cold wind blew out from it, causing the flames to tremble. It must be the entrance to the secret passage.

Just as he was about to go further, Meng Shuai suddenly heard a whirring sound.

mouse?

After suddenly turning around, Meng Shuai realized that he was thinking awkwardly. The sound came from the shaft - another basket fell down.

Another one came down?

Why is it so fast?

He, the person who explores the path, cannot get out of any information.

Without waiting for him to doubt, the basket fell to the ground with a thud.

Meng Shuai frowned and said, "Xiao Mo?"

Someone in the basket grew up, but from the perspective of height, it was not Xiao Mo.

Meng Shuai was even more surprised and raised the fire pie. Sure enough, the person he saw was Rong Lingqi.

Meng Shuai laughed dryly and said, "You're down too? Am I not doing anything yet?"

Rong Lingqi's face reflected strangely in the flames of stars. He did not answer Meng Shuai's greetings, and stepped out of the basket by himself, pressed on the stone wall, and clicked on it with a click-

The four ropes tied to the basket were cut off at the same time. The basket was under pressure and silently silenced on the ground, turning from a treasure that sustained life to a dead object.

Meng Shuai was stunned for a moment before he understood what was going on, and suddenly shouted: "What are you doing? Have you cut off your back?"

Rong ordered him to stagger into Hengdong and said, "Come in." His hand slowly raised.

Meng Shuai subconsciously followed, got into the hole, and said, "You want..." Before he finished speaking, he heard a bang.

The loud noise made him deaf for a moment, and he felt dizzy and the land under his feet was trembling. This kind of movement was only comparable to that of a major earthquake. The fire slit in his hand was shaken and the surroundings were immediately pitch black.

In the darkness, he felt that the tiny particles sputtered on his face, causing pain.

An earthquake again?

Meng Shuai was trembling in his heart and slowly leaned against the wall, as if only the support of the wall could make him feel at ease.

Suddenly, a trace of flame lit up.

In the fire, Rong Lingqi's face was even more weird than it was.

Meng Shuai said, "What's wrong just now?" A hint of hoarseness appeared unconsciously.

Rong Lingqi coldly extended the flame to his side. Under the flame, the horizontal hole that had just exited had disappeared, and replaced by a stone wall filled with a huge stone.

Meng Shuai felt so upset that he said, "You... filled the shaft to death?"

Rong Lingqi said: "If you don't fill it, are you waiting for someone to chase you? When the ancestors designed it, the ones used to fill the well were huge rocks with a radius of more than meter. There was a stone pillar from top to bottom, and it could not be dug. Unless you used gunpowder or invited sealers to open the mountain seal with great force, no one could do anything."

Meng Shuai felt uncomfortable and suddenly said, "Where is Xiao Mo? Xiao Mo hasn't come down yet."

Rong Lingqi said: "Yes."

Meng Shuai said: "What do you mean by um? Why did you leave her?"

Rong Lingqi said lightly: "When did I say I wanted to take her away?"

Meng Shuai choked for a moment, and then he remembered that from beginning to end, Rong Ling only expressed the meaning of taking him out. As for Xiao Mo, he didn't even mention it, so it seemed natural to throw Xiao Mo on it now.

However, even so, Meng Shuai was still panicked and said, "Why do we have to divide it so clearly? Aren't we three in total? Taking her down is just a small task, but it's better than building a seven-level pagoda. Why not do it? After all, her surname is Rong."

Rong made his expression jump slightly, revealing a hint of hideousness, and said, "It's Rong, not Rong, and I can't find this place. The one with the surname Rong killed Rong, and it's particularly cruel. The deepest wound on my body was left by my uncle. Tell me, why did you guys with the surname Rong block my grandfather's old house?"

He supported the wall with one hand, his tone with a little bit of hatred accumulated after being betrayed, and he stared at Meng Shuai.

Meng Shuai was speechless. After all, although he could not write two words Rong in one stroke, he did come to grab Rong Lingqi's things. He was an enemy but not a friend. Even Xiao Mo was one of them. Rong Lingqi was not a mistake, let alone abandoning her, even killing her was not a mistake.

But……

Meng Shuai smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Mo still understands nothing, it's not like..."

Rong Lingqi said: "If she is sensible, I might be willing to take her down. The first thing that is, the first thing that is, is to have a conscience. If she doesn't have it, she will have a lot of wisdom and tricks. If she doesn't have wisdom and tricks, she will have at least courage. If she doesn't have these, what do you want me to endure her?"

Meng Shuai was helpless by choking by him. He was dissatisfied with the fact that he felt that there was no reason to attack, so he just said: "Brother... she is also a girl after all..."

Rong Lingqi said: "Is it your dear sister?"

Meng Shuai shook his hand and said, "No." He thought to himself: Where are your eyes growing? Didn't you see that she is bigger than me?

Rong ordered him to turn his back and said, "So what if you are your dear sister? What can you do if you are my real brothers and sisters? Your talent is just a little good, and you are not an amazing genius. Given that you are young and have a lot of room for creation, the Rong family is really no one, I will let you have a chance. If you don't want it, just wait for death here." As he said, he held the wall and dragged his injured footsteps, he walked step by step into the depths of the tunnel.
