Hua Muling's words made me really stunned, and I wanted to ask something, but at this time, Hua Muling was already holding Xiao Niya and ran quickly in the direction where Shinaiichi and the others left.
Being rejected, I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut and obediently carried Xiong Ming and trotted behind them.
A few of us walked forward for about fifty or sixty meters, when a corner suddenly appeared in front of us.
It was at this time that a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from the other side of the corner.
The gunfire sounded suddenly, and it was obvious that Shinnaichi and the others had encountered an unexpected situation.
At this time, Hua Muling stopped at the corner, turned back to look at me out of habit, and moved her mouth slightly, as if asking: "Should we go over and have a look?"
I frowned, shook my head gently, and said, "The situation is unknown, so don't act rashly yet!"
But who would have thought that before I finished speaking, a man suddenly rushed out from around the corner and almost fell in love with me.
I was startled and hurriedly took two steps back. The man's body was gone and he fell heavily to the ground not far from my feet with a "thump".
After the man fell down, he struggled to get up. However, at this time, his lower body was covered in blood, and his flesh and blood were all eaten away by unknown things. In many places, white bones were even exposed.
I know this guy, he is the one who was leading Shinna's team just now.
When the man saw me, he seemed to have seen an enemy. Anger flashed in his eyes and he reached out to grab my ankles.
But helplessly, this guy was already at the end of his strength. He just stretched his hand halfway and went to see the King of Hell without even taking a breath.
And the last thing he said was, "Why...why do you do this?"
"Why did I do this? What did I do? Young master, I have been following you. I don't even know what happened to you. What the hell did I do?" Looking at the guy in front of me, I I couldn't help but curse in my heart.
This guy's last words not only confused me, but also puzzled Hua Muling.
Hua Muling and Xiaonia looked at me in surprise, as if they were looking at a monster.
I was extremely upset by their expressions, and said with some displeasure: "What do you mean by looking at me like this? I was with you the whole time just now, and I never went anywhere. Now you want to say that it was me who did it?" Yes, it will be snowy and bloody in June!"
Hua Muling lowered her head and thought for a while and said, "Indeed! You did stay with us just now, but why did that guy say such a thing before he died?"
I whispered angrily: "How do I know, Master? If you ask me, who should I ask?"
Hua Muling said: "As the saying goes, when a person is about to die, he also speaks well. He knew that he was about to die, so why would he suddenly say something irrelevant? If that is the case, it would be so strange!"
I cursed in a deep voice: "Aren't there enough weird things nowadays?"
But before I could say anything, the gunfire suddenly stopped at the corner, and then, a burst of heart-rending shouts came from the other side of the corner.
The sound was extremely miserable, and people who had never heard it could never imagine what kind of wailing it was.
It is no exaggeration to say that the cries of evil spirits in hell are nothing more than this.
What's even more terrible is that the shouts came from far away, and in a short time, the ghost-like screams of wolves had already reached the side of several of us.
This sudden change made Hua Muling and I stunned, but before we could recover, those people had already rushed to the corner in front of us, and behind them was a group of black people. of thick fog.
The thick black fog was overwhelming and blocked the entire passage. Anyone in Shinai's group would be sucked in immediately if they ran a little slower.
The next second, bursts of painful wails came from the thick fog.
Not long after, a white bone was spat out by the black mist, and then, as if it was conscious, it turned and pounced on another person.
The strong man was obviously frightened by the death of his companion. He raised the MK776 assault rifle in his hand, pointed it at the black fog, and pulled the trigger without hesitation. But unfortunately, the bullets had already been fired in the chaos. .
The strong man pulled the trigger several times, but there was no reaction at all. Only then did he remember that the gun in his hand was out of bullets.
In panic, the strong man lowered his head to change the magazine, but what he never expected was that the black mist had already arrived in front of him.
By the time the strong man wanted to run away, it was already too late. The ink-like black mist was like a predatory beast, swallowing up the 1.9-meter-plus strong man in a sudden roll.
The painful screams spread throughout the entire passage in an instant.
The sudden scene in front of us really frightened Hua Muling and I. I shouted at her: "Run!"
After saying that, I carried Xiong Ming and turned around and ran behind me.
I lowered my head and ran forward like a fly on my brow, fearing that I would be sucked in by the thick black mist if I ran too slowly.
My original plan was to go back the same way and run to a relatively safe experimental area.
But what I didn't expect at all was that after I turned seven or eight turns in this underground palace, I didn't find the door I entered here through before.
I stopped in panic, and Hua Muling behind me suddenly braked and bumped into me.
Hua Muling rubbed Xiao Niya's sore head and said with some displeasure: "Hu Tian, why did you stop suddenly?"
I looked back at Hua Muling, swallowed, and said, "We seem to be lost! This is not the way we came here before."
Hua Muling was also stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise: "How is this possible? Could it be that you were too anxious just now and went astray?"
I said firmly: "Impossible! There is only one road here, and I can't go astray!"
Hua Muling frowned and said, "If that's the case, it would be too strange. How could this happen?"
Before Hua Muling could finish her words, the heart-rending cry sounded from behind again.
That sound was not far away from the few of us. Needless to say, it must have been the sound made by the remaining guys in Shinai's team when they were swallowed by the black mist.
Listening to those scalp-numbing shouts, I knew now was not the time to delay. Thinking of this, I picked up Hua Muling beside me and continued running forward.
Hua Muling and I ran like this for more than ten minutes.
Suddenly, a wall appeared at the end of the entire corridor.
"Is this a dead end?" I shouted in a low voice.
"There is a room here!" Before I finished speaking, Hua Muling beside me suddenly said: "The door is unlocked, we can hide here for a while!"
Hearing this, I quickly turned around and looked towards Hua Muling. I found that there was a small stone door on one side of the corridor.
The stone door was not closed, but there was a gap half a person wide.
I couldn't help but feel happy when I saw this, and shouted to Hua Muling: "Quick! Get in quickly! If it's too late, it'll be too late!"
After saying that, I stuffed Xiong Ming into the door with all my skills, and then got in myself.
As we got closer, Hua Muling and I almost used all our strength to barely close the stone door from the inside.
And at the moment when the stone door was pushed up, a huge impact force came from outside the door, and there was a "bang" sound, which almost knocked me and Hua Muling out.
The black mist outside the door seemed unwilling to do so. It failed to knock the stone door open with one blow, and then hit it seven or eight times in succession.
After seeing no results, he left in confusion.
But Hua Muling and I inside the door still didn't dare to let go. The two of us held the door firmly against the door. After a long time, when we saw that there was no movement at all outside, we let out a sigh of relief and let go.
Because we had used too much force before, we both sat on the ground out of exhaustion after letting go.
I gasped for air, and it took me a long time to squeeze out a few words from my mouth: "It was so dangerous just now! There was almost no scum left."
Hua Muling sat next to me and panted heavily, and said, "You're right! It was really dangerous just now! If there hadn't been a room here, we would probably have ended up with those people. ."
"Yes! It's a good thing we have this room." I said as I stood up with all my strength, raised the miner's lamp in my hand and looked around the room where I was.
What surprised me was that I, Hua Muling, Xiao Niya and the unconscious Xiong Ming were not the only ones in the room at this time.
The whole room was densely packed with people.
These people were both men and women, old and young, and everyone was wearing strange clothes. Some people's clothes had already weathered due to age, and turned into bursts of fly ash at the slightest touch.
But what surprised me was far more than that. What surprised me most was that although these people had been dead for many years, judging from the elasticity of their skin and the degree of rigor mortis, they seemed to have just died. Just a few hours.
I reached out and hugged the legs of the person closest to me, and then lifted them up with force. Since this person's whole body was now in a relatively stiff state, I didn't waste much effort and lifted him up. Picked it from the rope loop.
I laid the guy flat on the ground and shined the light on the guy. Except for holding a palm-sized gold coin in his mouth, there was nothing special about this guy.
Out of curiosity, I reached out and pulled the gold coin out of the corpse's mouth.
Hua Muling seemed to be very happy about the gold coin. She stuck her head over and asked, "This gold coin is..."
I didn't take Hua Muling's words, but spread the gold coins in the palm of my hand and observed them carefully.
I looked at it for a while, and unexpectedly discovered that this thing was exactly the same as the gold coin I found in the belly of the water monkey.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but say "Huh".
But before I could say anything, Hua Muling spoke first. Hua Muling said beside me: "I remembered, this gold coin is..."
