Yi Liuling ran after the blood stains, but even though he ran very fast, the blood stains on the ground disappeared at a faster speed. After all, this is a place where time is distorted, and many phenomena are inconsistent with common sense.
Finally, Yi Liuling stopped in front of a ruins not far from the village, because the blood stains had completely disappeared by this point.
However, this ruin is somewhat famous, because compared with other small box-like houses in the village, the area of this place is too large. It seems that before it collapsed, it was either a mansion or a single-family villa.
Just as Yi Liuling was about to go in and take a look, the Ailun brothers and sisters also caught up with them, followed by Kun Yi and Fei Huihua, and then Jonathan.
Seeing the ruins, Ai Lunpi stepped forward and asked Yi Liuling: "How is it? Did you find anything?"
"No, I just arrived," Yi Liuling shook her head, "But the blood stain came in at a corner, so there might be some clues here."
"Then let's go in," said Jonathan on the side. "My sword is already hungry and thirsty."
"Let's wait for someone first," Fei Huihua looked back at the fog and muttered, "Where did Ji Shuzhai and Gudu go?"
After hearing Fei Huihua's words, several people also realized something was wrong. Although Ji Shuzhai did run very slowly, Gudu's speed was not inferior to Yi Liuling's. How could he not keep up?
"Oh no, nothing will happen, right?" Fei Huihua covered his mouth, looking worried.
Yi Liuling thought for a while and suggested: "No matter what happened to them, they were still captured. So as long as we find the guy who captured them, we can find them."
"I think it makes sense, and the clues are constantly disappearing. I think we should go in immediately, otherwise there may be nothing left." Kun Yi on the side agreed.
Fei Huihua was still a little worried: "Otherwise, Jonathan and I will go back to find someone."
"￥%&@#%..." At this time, Ailun Shui finally spoke for the first time, but what came out of her mouth were some words that others could not understand at all.
"Ah, my sister doesn't speak Common Language. I can't find the language she knows in any books." Ellen Pima said immediately, "But after so many years, I can also translate some. What she means is
In this case, it is best not to act separately, as it may be in vain."
"You understand," Yi Liuling agreed, "Then let's go in right away."
Other than having some questions about what was wrong with Ai Lun Shui's brain, other people had no other opinions.
Speaking of which, after the Ellen brothers and sisters appeared, things suddenly took shape, which was a bit weird in itself. Therefore, although Yi Liuling had her back to the two of them, she was still secretly vigilant.
He glanced at the others out of the corner of his eye. Except for Jonathan, the other two people also maintained a state of being ready to take action at any time. Obviously, he was not the only one who had this suspicion.
Although the ruins are large, they do not have any complicated structures. There are only rubble and dust on the ground, and a few broken walls that have not completely collapsed. The overall look is like a copy of the map that the protagonist of a horror game has passed.
.
However, just because there is nothing on the ground, does not mean that there is nothing underground. Especially after the incident in the villa cellar, they almost immediately looked for the entrance to the basement.
"Here," sharp-eyed Kun Yi discovered the handle half-hidden among the rotten wood fragments, "that seems to be a cellar door."
As he spoke, he took out the skull-crushing staff. When everyone thought he was going to use a blowing technique, Kun Yi turned it around and used it as a broom to remove the obstruction on the ground.
To be honest, when he just took this thing out of the ring, Ellenpi was shocked. Then after seeing his actions, he praised him: "As expected of a student of Suojia High School, he knows the importance of saving magic power.
."
"What about saving magic power?" Fei Huihua complained at the side. As a mage, she knew very well how amazing Kun Yi's total magic power was. "He was afraid that he would lose face if he couldn't blow it."
Kun Yi's eyes suddenly widened: "Don't talk nonsense. Are you the kind of person who cares about face? I'm obviously worried about some magic detection trap here, so I avoided using magic."
"So that's it, then I blamed you wrongly." Fei Huihua's tone was flat, not like he was apologizing.
However, even someone as slow as Jonathan could see the undercurrent in the eyes of these two people, so he did not intervene. On the contrary, Ellenpi's eyes lit up, as if he smelled the breath of the story, and was about to say something.
By the time he arrived, Kun Yi had already opened the exposed cellar door.
It was dark inside. Kun Yi took out an alchemy flashlight from his pocket: "Similarly, in order not to attract attention, I won't use lighting."
Fei Huihua rolled her eyes again. She knew that Kun Yi would not suddenly be so serious. It turned out that the previous thing was just a deception, and his real purpose was to hide his lack of light magic.
But it was always right to be cautious, so the rest of the people lined up and walked in behind Kun Yi. The person in charge of the rear was Jonathan, because they did not feel comfortable letting the Ellen brothers and sisters stand at the back.
After the cellar entrance is a long downward stone staircase, and it doesn't look like no one has been here for a long time. At least there is not much dust on the ground. However, the person who disappeared before was probably not dragged down from here.
Otherwise, there would be nothing pressing on the wooden door at the cellar entrance.
The further you go down, the more worn the stairs are, and there are some blood stains on the ground. Different from the fresh traces on the street before, this blood has soaked into the stone and become part of this strange stone step.
, so it has not disappeared or changed color due to the passage of time.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, a few people finally reached the bottom of the stone steps, and what they saw was a long tunnel. It was not dark here, and there were torches inserted into metal buckles on the wall, although they had long since been extinguished.
, but it is wrapped with fluorescent plants, and the dense white leaves are like decorative lanterns.
Yi Liuling saw that Kun Yi had put away the flashlight. The tunnel was wide enough for two or three people to walk side by side, so he simply left the queue and observed the creeping plants on the wall.
This is not the white witch flower, but an ordinary luminous plant. It is not even a spiritual plant. I don’t know how it has lived underground for such a long time.
At this time, Ellen Shui tapped Ellen Pi's back with the guide stick in her hand, and the latter turned around: "What's wrong?"
Ailun Shui took a step back and pointed at the thing she had just stepped on. Ailun Shui picked it up and found that it was a piece of white petals. Only her with extremely keen perception could detect such a thin thing.
.
However, none of the white plants on the wall have bloomed.
