Because it is in a spiral shape, it is not possible to tell at a glance how deep the basement is.
Li Zhi brought two kerosene lamps from the living room, and then he took the lead down the stairs, leaving Feng at the back.
Shu Li walked behind Li Zhi, and Li Zhi also illuminated the area for her intentionally or unintentionally, so that she could carefully observe the structure of the basement.
The basement is about two meters, maybe a little higher. It can be walked normally, and there are lamp posts on both sides that can be lit.
Just because they were not sure whether there was enough oxygen, the four people did not rush to light it, but temporarily relied on the kerosene lamps in their hands to continue moving forward.
After walking through a dark corridor about three to four meters long, there were two rooms facing each other on the left and right behind the corner.
From the outside, the two doors were made of fine wood, and a palm-sized hole was specially cut on the door so that it could be opened from the outside.
Li Zhifengcuo was mentally prepared, and the two of them opened the small door on the hole, one on the left and the other on the right, and looked inside.
The narrow field of vision, the weak light, and the corner of the room that they could barely see clearly were enough to frighten them.
Li Zhi's face condensed at a very fast speed. His eyes, expressions and body language all told that he was disgusted.
Shu Li watched him run to a further corner, bend over and vomit. Looking at Feng Cuo on the side, he had the same reaction after persisting for two or three seconds longer than Li Zhi.
Shu Li and Miss Meng were left looking at each other, and their eyes seemed to express an indescribable emotion in unison.
In fact, even if you think about it, this copy is two copies at different times.
But for Feng Cuo, this shouldn't be his first experience with a dungeon, let alone Li Zhi, who has experienced many battles.
But even if they were disgusted like this, Shu Li really couldn't imagine what the scene was like.
So she leaned against the wall on one side and looked at the two people, giving them enough time to relieve themselves.
Miss Meng had the same reaction, but her nose wrinkled slightly, and then she sniffed twice hard.
"Strange?" Miss Meng frowned and took two or three hard breaths: "Did you smell anything strange?"
"Is there any?" Shu Li also moved her nose slightly, but apart from the cold and damp smell of the basement where the air was not circulating, she really couldn't smell anything.
"It's strange." Miss Meng said, using her nose to search for the source of the smell.
Shu Li's eyes were locked on her, watching her get closer and closer to the innermost wall.
"Don't come over." A very weak voice sounded. It was unclear whether it was Li Zhi or Feng Wong. They were afraid that Miss Meng would step on the vomit, so they quickly stopped Miss Meng from moving forward.
But Miss Meng didn't care and continued walking forward.
Then, under the gazes of the three people, Miss Meng's hand penetrated the wall, and her whole body was sucked in instantly.
Li Zhifengcuo was obviously very close, but he stretched out his two hands in an instant, but he didn't even catch a corner of Miss Meng's clothes.
And just when they wanted to break into the wall directly, they hit an extremely hard stone.
"What did you touch just now?" Feng Cuo asked in a questioning and very unkind tone: "Why did she come over suddenly? Why was she able to enter the wall? Why didn't you follow her?"
"Are you doubting me?" Shu Li raised an eyebrow and decided to tolerate him for once.
"Nothing happened just now. It was just that Miss Meng said there was an indescribable smell inside, which seemed like a bad smell but not at all, so she smelled the smell and walked over."
"What does it smell like?" they both asked in unison.
"I don't know, I didn't smell it." Shu Li relaxed her shoulders and said, "Actually, I didn't smell anything in this basement except the cold, damp musty smell, which is the smell of sour water that you two vomited. Other flavors.”
The two people's faces froze when they were ridiculed like this.
Feng Cuo tried to save his respect: "What do you know? It wasn't you who saw the situation inside, it was you and you were afraid."
"Oh, so you are scared." Shu Li asked back.
Wrong seal: "I didn't..."
Shu Li did not continue to argue with him. She looked around and a guess gradually took shape in her mind.
She looked at the two of them and asked, "Is there a corpse in the room?"
"How do you know?" Feng Cuo was a little shocked.
"Otherwise?" Li Zhi sighed: "What else can cause such a big reaction from us?"
He turned to look at Shu Li. He seemed to have recovered because of Miss Meng's unexpected departure.
However, regardless of whether it was because of fright or something else, we were able to have a good chat anyway.
"It's not just a corpse. I suspect our guess can be 60% accurate."
"What guess?" Feng Tiao was confused when he heard it.
"It's good that Rong Ge came back from the dead, but she probably didn't do it because her father wanted to cure her illness. It was because she wanted to save himself."
"So what's inside is the body of an adult man? Shu Liyu asked softly.
"Yes, a lot." Li Zhi's tone was a little heavy. It seems that he still can't recover from the look just now.
Even though his field of vision was limited and the visibility of the light was very low, he still saw at that glance the white bones that filled the room.
It seems that the old manor owner tried again and again to achieve his own purpose until he was completely successful.
"But if he succeeded, why would he still die? And the one who survived was Rong Ge?"
"No, wait! What clues did you find? Why are you so many steps ahead of me?"
"I don't have time to answer your questions now." Li Zhi interrupted Feng Cuo and continued: "It should be that after he passed the experiment, he learned that talents with closer blood are more likely to succeed. So he chose a suitable day to let Song of glory as my own sacrifice.”
"That's right, Rong Ge's nightmare." Shu Li added.
"Yes, I think so too." But Li Zhi hesitated: "But some accidents must have happened that night, and the sacrifice process was interrupted, so the places of the sacrifice and the sacrificed objects should have been exchanged."
"You are saying that a father chooses to sacrifice his daughter for his own health?" Feng Cuo asked in disbelief.
Shu Li was interrupted again. She glanced at him subconsciously, then turned to Li Zhi and asked, "Did he have this character before?"
What was left unsaid was: a little too stupid.
Before Li Zhi could answer, Feng Cuo became even more confused because of Shu Li's words.
"What do you mean before? Before you knew me? What kind of riddles are you playing?"
"Alas..." Li Zhi shook his head and answered Shu Li's question: "Although I don't want to admit it, it is right."
"Although I was not the one who advocated and insisted on recruiting him to the team, I still often feel extremely regretful that I voted in favor."
Li Zhi felt helpless here.
Outside of the dungeon, when he received the schedule reminder, the man who had changed drastically had a very ugly face.
