Large-scale movements of people will inevitably cause some chaos. By the time the order of entering the city gradually stabilized due to everyone's efforts, the sun was already heading west.
Xing Fei found Mu Qing and said, "At night, it will be more difficult to contact people on the ground if something happens. We have to go down."
"Do you need me to come with you?" Before Mu Qing could speak, the person behind him spoke first.
Jiang Shangxiu and Chen Zhuo also came to the inner city. With Mu Qing as the boundary, they naturally formed a different camp from Xing Fei.
Mu Qing shook his head and said: "I'm just going down this time to look for the missing soldiers. I'm more familiar with them. Just help keep the order in the city."
Everyone in Hidden Valley nodded and dispersed. Xing Fei suddenly asked: "How is Dugu Wei's recovery from his injuries? You Hidden Valley has injured many masters this time."
Mu Qing was stunned. It seemed that Xing Fei was not at all wary of Hidden Valley. The reason why he was able to stand relatively peacefully against each other now was probably because of the peace and stability goal he supported in his heart as a soldier.
The two of them did not sacrifice the near for the distant, but chose to enter through the tunnel from the White Pagoda Temple, followed by more than a hundred more experienced soldiers.
When walking through the empty underground space, Xing Fei took the initiative and said: "At that time, you attracted Bai Hao's attention. Later, he prepared the blood sacrifice formation, so we had more time to save people, but even if Even so, no fewer than four thousand people will still have no chance."
Mu Qing frowned and listened, every time he smelled the vague smell of blood in the air, every piece of flesh and blood on his body would feel dry inexplicably.
The team moved forward for another quarter of an hour and arrived at the maze above the prison.
Mu Qing looked at Lao Qi next to Xing Fei and asked, "Did Geshan say which floor he will stay on?"
Lao Qi shook his head and said: "Second brother only said that he wanted to find the missing brothers, and did not say which floor he would stay on. Moreover..." Lao Qi looked at Xing Fei and saw that Xing Fei's face was calm, so he did not hide it and said: " The eldest brother even came down to look for him, but the second brother did not show up, so I suspect that the second brother may be trapped in the same place as the missing brothers."
Mu Qing nodded and suggested, "Just search carefully on these two floors. I'll go to the bottom two floors and let you know if I find anything."
"no!"
"Um?"
Mu Qing did not expect that Xing Fei would flatly refuse.
Xing Fei looked extremely serious and said: "The Guards can no longer bear the sacrifice, so we must act together."
Mu Qing thought about it seriously. If there was really a danger, people like Xing Fei really didn't care enough about it, so he readily agreed. Your understanding.”
Mu Qing did not answer, but made a sword formula with one hand in front of his chest. The demon-suppressing sword in the sword pouch behind his back trembled and flew directly to the top of everyone's heads. The inscriptions on the sword flashed and a faint red light filled the air. Those who were killed by Xing After flying back and forth for several times, the soldier felt for the first time what a sense of security was.
The first underground space was the most severely destroyed. The closer you got to the area of the City Lord's Mansion, the more complete the damage was. Some secret passages were even directly exposed to the charred ruins and orange-red skylight.
Everyone slowly went down from the huge pit on the side of the city lord's mansion. Because the purpose was to find someone, so whenever they reached the depths of the secret passage or where it was blocked by rocks, everyone with Mu Qing's dedicated help no longer stopped. Just like before, I could only turn around and return after sighing.
When encountering a big stone blocking the road, Mu Qing didn't say anything and just broke it with a sword. When encountering a deep and eerie quiet area, Mu Qing didn't say anything and just took the lead. Although he still hasn't found anything yet, the guards' These soldiers felt Mu Qing's sincerity and gradually developed a good impression of him.
"it's getting dark."
Suddenly, Xing Fei, who walked behind Mu Qing, reminded him.
Mu Qing paused in his steps and turned around to look. His eyes passed through the people stretching in a line behind him, and he could also see the place where the ground sank behind him. The black there was different from the black here, but the sky was blacken.
Lao Qi was leaning against the stone wall, looking at Mu Qing and Xing Fei with admiration and said, "Brother, I'm really tired."
It seemed that they didn't have to work hard because Mu Qing was watching the road, but there was one thing that Lao Qi didn't expect. That was because of Mu Qing's help, they traveled to more places this time than the previous times combined. Traveling up and down in different shadow areas, my mind is always highly tense, my body is tired, and my heart is even more tired.
Xing Fei nodded and let everyone rest on the spot for a quarter of an hour. He and Mu Qing walked to the front and said in a deep voice: "Have you found anything after searching for so long?"
Mu Qing could clearly see the emotions in Xing Fei's eyes, including anxiety, confusion and exhaustion.
He pondered: "Along the way, many traces of battles were left behind, and there are no new traces anywhere. How many people do you think have disappeared underground?"
"At least five hundred people, even Xiong San disappeared without a trace."
After Xing Fei answered, he suddenly lowered his voice and asked: "Don't you think this is the biggest abnormality? If they were alive, they would desperately ask for help. If they were all dead, why didn't they leave any traces? Is there someone there? Clean up these traces?”
Mu Qing frowned and asked, "You mean Geshan?"
Xing Fei shook his head and said: "I don't know, but nothing has been discovered and no danger has arisen. My intuition is wrong."
Mu Qing smiled bitterly and said: "I don't have the same intuition as you, and isn't there a space further down that I haven't found yet?"
Xing Fei nodded: "Wait a minute, let's go directly to a place."
The military orders were like mountains, Xing Fei gave the order, and the soldiers followed the crowd, dragging their sore and swollen legs, deeper underground.
This time, with Xing Fei leading the way, everyone had a clear direction and soon came to a corner of the passage. Mu Qing saw Xing Fei suddenly stop, his eyes fixed on somewhere on the wall, and without making a sound for the time being, he passed Xing Fei and headed towards The passage goes deeper.
At the end of this passage, the ground was full of gravel. Mu Qing's face moved slightly. He quickly walked to the entrance of the passage and scanned inside. He saw broken formations everywhere on the ground. Suddenly, the air was filled with the unique thorn of magma. He felt the smell of saltpeter in his nose and said in a deep voice: "This should be the formation base where Bai Hu was trapped. Jiang Shangxiu should have been here."
Mu Qing didn't hear the response, turned around and saw Xing Fei staying where he was, even squatting down.
He returned to Xing Fei, who was touching something on the wall with his fingers. When he looked over, he condensed slightly and said softly: "There are traces of leather wipes on this wall."
