"I have looked for it. I was also wondering if the lord had captured Yang and used it as an experimental subject. Therefore, I also went to the laboratory to look for it. I have checked every living or dead experimental subject, even the blood slaves.
I’ve seen the corpse pits where people were imprisoned, but there’s nothing there.”
"You are sure you haven't missed anything?" Xia Xue asked, tilting her head.
"Definitely not. I care about my own son more than anyone else, how could I be careless?" Zhou Yang frowned and stared at Xia Xue displeased, "Are you okay? If not, don't waste time."
"Of course, Mr. Consul, now, let's go to the passage of Yuting River. You have to ask a few people to bring excavation tools, and be quick."
Xia Xue put away the map and walked straight to the passage on the right. Hong Wen followed closely. Zhou Yang immediately ordered his men to bring digging tools, and the group walked to the passage on the right, which was the secret passage leading to Yuting River.
After walking a few steps, a follower quickly came over to report to Zhou Yang: "Master, the blood slave has been captured by us and injected with anesthetic drugs. We imprisoned him in a corpse pit."
"Very good." Zhou Yang smiled coldly, stared at Xia Xue sinisterly, and said sternly, "If you can't find Yang, you will become the lunch of those mutants."
"If I find it, please don't forget your promise."
Xia Xue glared at him and ran forward quickly. To save time, a group of people were trotting, with Xia Xue running at the front, Hong Wen following closely behind, and Zhou Yang and his men following behind.
The amazing thing is that Xia Xue is actually very familiar with the route. When she encounters dozens of forks along the way, she can choose left or right without hesitation, without any pause. This shocked Zhou Yang, who trotted along.
While asking Xia Xue: "How do you know the route here?"
"I just looked at the map, have you forgotten?" Xia Xue gasped slightly, her physical strength was not as good as theirs.
"This map is so complicated that you just read it once, and you can remember it so clearly in less than a minute?" Zhou Yang looked at Xia Xue in admiration.
"I have always had a photographic memory, so this is nothing."
After Xia Xue responded calmly, she continued to trot forward. A few minutes later, they finally reached the passage of Yuting River. By this time, they had spent nearly twenty minutes.
The group stopped, Xia Xue stood there panting slightly, took a rest, walked to the wall, touched the wall with her hands, there was a thin layer of water mist, very humid, different from the walls they were on just now, those
The walls of the place are very dry.
Xia Xue knocked on the wall with her knuckles. There was still a slight sound, but these sounds were crisp, while the dry walls just now were dull. This shows that these walls are hollow, while those just now were solid.
"Ah——" Xia Xue suddenly covered her mouth with her hands and shouted loudly. Sure enough, the echo here was very loud. Even if it wasn't a shout, there would be a slight echo if she spoke louder, but the echoes of those secret passages before were relatively small.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Yang frowned and asked in confusion.
"When Long Xiao took Zhou Yang away from you, in which direction did he go?" Xia Xue did not answer Zhou Yang's question directly, but asked while looking at the wall.
"On the right, this is where we met the lord. The lord asked people to take Yang away and leave through the passage on the right." Zhou Yang pointed to the passage on the right and said.
"Let's go." Xia Xue walked quickly to the passage on the right. The passage here is no different from the one just now, and the end of this passage is also an intersection, just like an ordinary passage, even if they continue to move forward
, you will only encounter countless intersections and cannot find the purpose at all.
"Let's all search to see if there is a secret passage in this passage." Xia Xue ordered.
"Secret passage?" Zhou Yang looked at her in surprise, tilted his head and asked, "You mean, there may be other secret passages in this passage, and Yang is hidden in the secret passage?"
"That's right. Don't waste time. Find it quickly. I'll tell you the reason while you're looking for me." Xia Xue's eyes never left the wall. She groped and checked in the passage carefully, using her palms to check everywhere.
Let it go.
"Hurry up and do as she says." Zhou Yang ordered urgently, and his followers immediately began to check the secret passage like Xia Xue.
"Now, can you tell me? What's going on?"
Although Zhou Yang looked at Xia Xue questioningly, he already believed her in his heart. Xia Xue's photographic memory made him believe that she had the ability to find Zhou Yang. Moreover, Zhou Yang searched the entire experimental base and found nothing.
After finding Zhou Yang, now only Xia Xue's theory can explain Zhou Yang's disappearance.
"When I was looking at the map just now, I found that the secret passages on the Yuting River side are slightly narrower than other secret passages. There are probably no less than a thousand secret passages in this experimental base, but why are there only dozens of secret passages on the Yuting River side?
Narrow? This made me confused, and then I checked the previous secret passage. It was solid, which proved that there were no other secret passages behind it.
Then I had a bold guess in my mind, but I was still not sure, so I just came here with the mentality of giving it a try. The walls here are not only damp, but also hollow, and there is such a loud echo. The answer
Obviously, there are other secrets behind these passages, and even you don’t know about these secrets.”
After saying this, Xia Xue looked back at Zhou Yang and said solemnly: "Now, do you believe in my ability?"
"The secret passage here is only less than a foot narrower than other secret passages. The difference on the map is even more subtle. You can actually find it. I have to admire your sharp eyesight." Zhou Yang sighed sincerely, "
I personally supervised the construction of these experimental bases. I have always known that the secret passage of Yuting River is relatively narrow, but I did not expect that there is another mystery. I went to Thailand for half a month last year. Could it be that the master established the secret passage here at that time?
?But why did he do this?"
"Don't you know about Long Xiao's research on biological zombies?" Xia Xue stared at Zhou Yang suspiciously.
"My lord did mention this matter in front of me, but I have never seen him actually implement it. At that time, I tried my best to advise him not to do it. The current mutants are enough to help us achieve our goals. There is no need to study biology.
Zombies must have sacrificed so many lives, which will lead to retribution." Zhou Yang looked at Xia Xue solemnly, "Do you think the secret passage here is where the master uses to study biological zombies?"
"Maybe, I'm not sure now." Xia Xue looked at Hong Wen complicatedly. Hong Wen had been huddled against the wall with his head lowered and said nothing. Maybe, he had known something for a long time, but he just didn't dare to go.
Faced with it, so I didn’t say it.
"Boom -" At this moment, a dull sound suddenly came. Xia Xue and Zhou Yang turned around alertly and saw a follower accidentally pushing open a door in the secret passage on the right...
