Chapter 14 Finding the Exit

The little beggar's thoughts were floating around, his heart was tense, and his steps became stiff. The long and gloomy corridor in front of him led to an unknown darkness, as if he could not reach the end and could not find a way out...

Some not-so-pleasant memories rolled in his mind. The little beggar's breathing became heavy and his body gradually became weak. He stopped and asked, "Hey, can you come down and walk by yourself?"

He couldn't carry it anymore.

Zhou Xiaodu said: "Okay." She fell off the little beggar's back, looked at the young man who seemed tired, and scratched his face guiltily.

In fact, after she fainted, the severe pain was over, and she felt much better when she woke up. After all, Zhou Xiaodu was a tough person, and even if he was stabbed with a knife, he could still fight back and forth with the enemy. As long as she

While her consciousness was still clear, she was able to jump around and run wildly. Just now, she had a lazy muscle attack, so she pretended to be weak and let him carry her. Now looking at his small body, which is as thin as a ponytail, she thinks that she is older.

An adult of seven or eight years old took advantage of the seedlings, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

The little beggar glanced at her and put his palms on the wall of the secret passage to relieve the tension in his body and mind. He was seriously injured by the iron-legged fairy before, and was tortured by Huo Yan later. He was able to carry Zhou Xiaodu for so long.

In Zhou Xiaodu's words, he is very strong.

Zhou Xiaodu's eyes suddenly rolled around, and then, she approached the little beggar and hissed: "Did you hear the cry?"

The little beggar suddenly stood on his back and stared at Zhou Xiaodu.

Zhou Xiaodu listened carefully again and added: "A woman's cry."

"Don't scare me... I'm timid, I can't help but scare..." he said tremblingly.

When Zhou Xiaodu saw his expression of being frightened and about to cry, he found it interesting, so he made a sound and lowered his head to laugh.

The little beggar straightened his face and said angrily: "You are indeed tricking me."

Zhou Xiaodu paused suddenly and whispered: "I understand."

"Huh? What do you know?"

"That woman's cry..." Zhou Xiaodu's voice was very low, as if he was telling something serious and important. The little beggar couldn't help but feel nervous after hearing this, "It turns out that it's me who's crying..."

Zhou Xiaodu suddenly raised his head, with a twisted and strange smile on his pale face. At this time, his smart eyes were not even black at all, and two lines of clear tears were pouring out of his two white eyeballs.

Tears were streaming down her face, she was grinning, and her body made a crunching sound. With each crunching sound, her body bones were twisted everywhere, and her whole body was like a strand.

A white candle being crushed.

The teenage boy was immediately frightened out of his mind by the battle. He screamed, turned around and ran away.

When Zhou Xiaodu saw this, he stopped moving, rolled his eyes back, wiped his tears and relaxed his muscles, "It's fun."

It's so fun to amuse children.

System: "...a good or bad adult."

Zhou Xiaodu listened carefully and found that there was indeed a woman crying. She heard it correctly, but because it was far away from here, the little beggar who had not practiced cultivation could not hear it.

Zhou Xiaodu was afraid that the little beggar would run too far and get separated from her, so he didn't dare to delay too much, so he chased after her, and then was stared at again and again by the livid-faced little beggar.

Zhou Xiaodu was really worried that his eyes would pop out and it would become the scene of a horror story.

The little beggar ran wildly in a state of collapse, and unexpectedly ran near the source of the cry. He had good ears, so he heard the cry when he got closer. After listening carefully, he found that it was indeed the plaintive cry of a young woman.

Although it was strange to hear cries in this gloomy place, the little beggar quickly realized that Zhou Xiaodu had not lied just now, and she also used this word to scare herself!

Bah! A wicked ghost lacks great virtue!

Zhou Xiaodu patted the little beggar on the shoulder nonchalantly, "There is someone else here, maybe a weak woman who is imprisoned. Do you want to go and see?"

The little beggar shook his head and pointed to a mark on the corner, "It's useless. I've been here before. I've walked all the roads I can take. I didn't find any imprisoned women... I think there must be something special about coming here."

In the design, there are some secret passages and chambers that we cannot find, which shows that the owner is an extremely suspicious and careful person, and his secret passages can be used to hide and trap enemies."

"So, here's the bad news," he shrugged. "We can't find the exit. Even our original entrance was designed to be inaccessible. We're trapped here."

Zhou Xiaodu took a long breath and was not discouraged, "Since the owner who built this underground tunnel is a suspicious person, he will definitely leave himself a way out to control the situation under any circumstances, so there must be an exit!

"

"The problem is, I can't find the exit." The little beggar said sadly.

Zhou Xiaodu said: "Then let's continue looking. We can't just lie down in two rows and wait to die together, right?"

Seeing the little beggar nodding, she suddenly realized something. Her eyes wandered to the mark on the corner, and the corner of her mouth twitched, "This is..."

"Oh, it was painted with your blood, don't waste it!" the little beggar replied. Who made Zhou Xiaodu drip blood all the time?

At that moment, Zhou Xiaodu showed an expression that was too complicated to describe. Then she turned around and walked forward, saying, "I'm going to find the exit."

The structure of this secret passage was ingenious. Zhou Xiaodu didn't know much about the art of construction. In addition, the light was dim and he couldn't see clearly. For a while, he couldn't find the mechanism to open the exit. She tried touching a few candlesticks nailed to the wall, and it seemed that she could not find the secret passage.

It's not like a switch.

The little beggar watched Zhou Xiaodu pull a candlestick off the wall with one hand. He was silent for a while and then came up with a bold idea, "Can you dig a way out with your hands?"

Zhou Xiaodu looked at the wall in front of him, held up his dusty and dirty fingers, and asked quietly: "Then can I use your skull to dig out a way out?"

The little beggar immediately fainted: "It's just a joke, just pretend I didn't say it."

Zhou Xiaodu thought for a moment and pulled out two small insects from nowhere. They were bright red and looked like two dots of cinnabar. The little beggar saw her holding the brightly colored insects in her palms and backed away warily.

Taking a step forward, he frowned and said, "What is this? Poisonous?"

"My treasure." Zhou Xiaodu replied casually, "Animals are often more sensitive than people."

She lifted her palms up, and the two little insects vibrated their wings and flew forward. Zhou Xiaodu grabbed a candle, stretched it forward to light the way forward, and said, "Catch up."

The little beggar followed Zhou Xiaodu step by step, and finally the little bug actually found a secret door. Because it was in a blind spot and the stone slab was used as a cover, it had been missed until now.

The two moved the stone slab away, revealing the thick iron door. This door should have a mechanical lock, and you need to find a switch to open it. Generally speaking, the switch is located near the door.

When Zhou Xiaodu saw the little beggar looking at the candlestick next to him, he understood that he was suspecting that the candlestick was a trap. He sneered and said, "How could anyone make the trap so obvious?"

"What should we do?"

"Since this secret door is blinded, I speculate that the switch is also hidden by blinding. Therefore," Zhou Xiaodu raised his calf, "As long as it is invisible, it is possible."

"Papa papa..." She simply kicked all the empty walls and floors near the secret door. In the flying dust, she actually kicked out a secret compartment, and the switch was set in the secret compartment.

The little beggar saw her stepping forward and flipping the switch, and with a "click" sound, the door lock was unlocked. He couldn't help but give Zhou Xiaodu a thumbs up, "Awesome."
