When Xiaoxin closed the sewer manhole cover, it was really dark below.

Tang Ji heard the rustling sound of climbing the ladder, and after a while, Xiaoxin came to the two of them.

Xiaoxin said softly, "Follow me."

"I can't see the road!" Tang Ji also lowered his voice.

The damp breath of the sewer enveloped the three of them, as if even their voices were suppressed by the moisture in the environment, and they could no longer raise their voices.

"...Ah, that's right." Xiaoxin patted his head, as if he had just noticed this place without any lights, and suddenly said in a tone of sudden understanding, "Yes, you can't see it."

Tang Ji had the urge to knock him on the head.

"Well... hold me. I can see, I'll take you away." After Xiaoxin finished speaking, he turned around and faced Tang Ji and Guo Fang.

He stretched out his hand, and accurately pulled Tang Ji's sleeve.Then he walked backwards, sure on his feet.

Tang Ji couldn't help but frowned, he didn't like other people's touch, but in this situation, he had to be patient.

"Sister Fang, grab my clothes." Tang Ji said.

Guo Fang took two steps forward and grabbed Tang Ji's coat.

The three of them went deep into the underground pipeline. From the beginning to the end, Xiaoxin walked backwards.

"Where are we going?" Tang Ji asked.

"Base camp," Xiaoxin replied very simply, "I did a fortune telling today, and the divination showed that I would have a surprise, and then I changed shifts with other people, waiting, waiting, waiting for my surprise, isn't that right?" ——Sure enough, I met you! We have been waiting for you for a long time, what about the others? Are they in other countries?"

"I don't know," Tang Ji said, "Is there anyone in the base camp?"

I don't know if Simon and Chen Lijun have been found.

"You probably don't know each other," Xiaoxin said, "but everyone knows you, you are very famous! Wanted posters are posted all over the city, and now everyone is looking for you! Hehe..."

So they are still wanted?

What do you mean?

There are three black lines on Tang Ji's forehead. When Xiaoxin said that he was wanted, it always sounded indecent.And he didn't know what to be proud of in being wanted.

"Is everyone in the dream here?" Tang Ji interrupted Xiaoxin's fancy praise, and asked, "How long have you been here?"

"I don't know..." Xiaoxin replied, "Anyway, there are many people here. According to Qin Gong, it seems that the dead people are here. You...you are dead too? Hey, if you are all dead... ...The dream must be difficult, right?"

Neither Tang Ji nor Guo Fang spoke.

I don't know how to put it, they didn't die, and Tang Ji brought Guo Fang, the main dreamer, here.

"Qin Gong?" Tang Ji heard a new name.

"Qin Gong is very powerful!" Although Xiaoxin's face could not be seen, he must have shown staring eyes at this moment, "Our base camp depends on him to survive! And us, if he hadn't saved me , I must have been captured!"

Xiaoxin said: "Hey! It's here!"

The front was still dark and boundless, Tang Ji and Guo Fang couldn't see anything, they only knew that they had been walking underground for about ten minutes.

Xiaoxin continued to retreat, fiddled with his backhand for a while, the sound of the key opening the door sounded, and a gap suddenly appeared in front of him.

A faint yellow light shines through.

Tang Ji closed his eyes reflexively, and opened them slowly after a few seconds, adapting to the light in the darkness.

A small door was opened by Xiaoxin.

"Come in." Xiaoxin climbed in first.

The door is very narrow, there are still pipes inside, and the surrounding walls are made of black steel, cold and silent.

The light is just a little bit, a strip like a fluorescent lamp, embedded in the pipe.

There was no one inside, and the place was so small that three people couldn't stand apart, so Xiaoxin took a few steps forward to reserve a place.

"It's coming soon." After Xiaoxin said, he stretched out his hand and broke off the yellow light strip from the top of the pipe, and held it in his hand for illumination, "There is light."

Tang Ji bent over and arched his back. The pipe was so short that Xiaoxin and Guo Fang could still walk straight. His head touched the top as soon as he went in.

"How long?" Tang Ji said.

"It's almost there." Xiaoxin turned her head, "You...you hit the top? You're so tall!"

Tang Ji didn't want to talk, so he waved his hand to signal Xiaoxin to stop talking nonsense and leave quickly.

I walked another similar distance, with many forks in the middle of the road, without any guidance or icons. Xiaoxin never hesitated every time he turned a corner, as if he had memorized the underground map.

In the middle of a pipe, Xiaoxin stopped and tapped the pipe a few times.

On the opposite side, after a while, someone actually responded, and there were a few dang dang bangs.

Tang Ji guessed that this was probably their secret signal for a meeting?

Sure enough, 2 minutes later, the middle of the pipe suddenly broke open—it turned out to be another small door.

There was rust on the side of the door, and no one would have noticed that there was a door here when the pipeline was dim.

Very hidden.

"Who?" Someone spoke over there, and his body shrank inside the door.

"Xiaoxin," Xiaoxin reported his name, "I found Tang Ji, and he brought a woman with him."

"What?!" There was an exclamation over there, "Come in!"

Then there was a slight rubbing sound. It should be that the person opposite stepped back and gave way to the door.

This time, there was no light inside the door, and it was darker than outside.After the door opened, Xiaoxin led them to crawl inside.

This time it was really "climbing", and I didn't even have the chance to bend over and walk.

A slender pipe that can only accommodate one person to pass through.

The pipeline is very short, about 200 meters, and there is another door in front of the pipeline, but it has been opened.

The three of them landed on a clearing.

The open space was like a room. As soon as Tang Ji landed, he found several people around him, all standing and looking at them with earnest eyes.

These people are dressed similarly to Xiaoxin, with strange clothes and strange shapes, and clothes of various styles are mixed on their bodies, and it is impossible to tell what style it is.

Judging from their voices and appearance, the people in front of them were all men.However, all of them had long hair, which exceeded the length that ordinary men should have, and all of them were longer than shoulders.And the hair is sparse, and two or three are even a little bald.

Is long hair the norm in this place?

"Tang Ji?"

"Are you Tang Ji?"

"It's true, is that Tang Ji?"

"It's him, it's him, it's him!" Xiaoxin also became excited.

Tang Ji: "..."

There was a man holding a stack of paper, the size of A4 paper, with many personal portraits drawn on it.He opened them one by one, took out one, and gave it to the person next to him.

Tang Ji took a look, yo, the avatar looks quite similar to himself, but it is not exactly the same, I can only say 80.00% similar.

Maybe this 80.00% is enough, those people compared it, and they all jumped up excitedly.

"Quick! Take it to Qin Gong!"

"Let's go! Why are you still standing there!"

Surrounded by five or six people, Tang Ji and Guo Fang walked into the room.Before he even had time to look back at the other wanted posters in that person's hand, he was pushed forward by the crowd.

This underground is like a big maze, and the room is like a transfer station of the maze. They opened the door, but they didn't expect that there was another section of pipeline inside.

The joy of these people was overflowing on their faces, and their footsteps were much lighter unconsciously.

After walking for a while, another room appeared.

"I'll take it in," Xiaoxin said suddenly, "It's all gone."

"Okay, okay, we won't bother you anymore."

"Okay, there is good news for us!"

After watching those chattering people leave, Xiaoxin gently knocked on the small door in front of him.

dong dong dong-

dong dong——

Similar to just now, the knock on the door is a fixed beat rhythm.

There was a similar knock on the door at the same time.

With a sound of "click—" the small door opened, and it was still dark inside.

"I found Tang Ji." Xiaoxin spoke to the person submerged in the darkness inside the door.

The reaction over there this time was obviously much calmer than that of the previous guys, and they just silently stepped aside.

The steps are similar to the previous ones. Only one person can pass through this narrow passage, and they move forward a little bit head to toe.

Along the way, Tang Ji discovered that the design of one wide and one narrow and the code structure of the small gate can intercept people with unruly intentions to a great extent.

If someone who is a threat to them climbs into this kind of pipeline, no matter how great their abilities are, they will not be able to use it. As long as there is one person guarding the other side of the pipeline, they can wipe out all the people in the entire pipeline.

After landing this time, there were only two people standing in front of him.

A young and strong young man, a middle-aged man with gray hair.

Tang Ji looked at them for a few seconds, and he was very sure that he had never seen these two people before, whether it was in a dream or in reality.

However, someone does.

Guo Fang behind him suddenly said, "Qin Gong?"

The middle-aged man directly opposite looked relaxed, even a little shocked: "You... Dr. Guo?"

"It's me, why are you here?!" Guo Fang passed Tang Ji and took several steps forward.

These two actually knew each other?

Not only did they know each other, they used to know each other very well.

Guo Fang introduced Qin Gong to Tang Ji: "This is Qin Xinxing, the chief engineer who developed the 'Dream System' back then."

The research and development of the "dream system" requires Guo Fang's scientific research team to provide data and subjects, and at the same time, in terms of technical construction, there must be a strong team to cooperate with Guo Fang's work.

This Qin Xinxing is the leader of the technical team, everyone calls him Qin Gong.

If the guess is correct, Lin Qiao should be regarded as Qin Gong's subordinate.

However, the name Qin Xinxing seems familiar.

Where have you heard it?

Tang Ji pondered for a while, and then remembered.

He had seen Qin Xinxing's medical records in the hospital's file room.His attending doctor was Zhang Jianshan, and the illness he saw was related to dreaming.

It turned out that the senior brother already knew about the dream at that time.

He remembered that the patient named Qin Xinxing later became a vegetable.

"Are you looking for my senior brother...Zhang Jianshan to see a doctor?" Tang Ji asked.

"Uh, um, yes." Qin Gong looked at Tang Ji and smiled wryly, "Dr. Guo introduced it. At that time, we didn't even know that the system was out of control."

"So, people who died in dreams will appear here?" Tang Ji thought of what Xiaoxin said just now, and he had already confirmed that Qin Gong in front of him was in a vegetative state in reality.

But he and Guo Fang obviously did not die, he not only interpreted the dream, but also got the easter egg of the main dreamer.

"Yes, and no." Qin Gong turned around and waved at Tang Ji and Guo Fang, "Come on, let me tell you slowly."
