On October 25th of the [-]th year of Hongwu, in the dark tunnel, Cui Miao could only feel his way forward. After walking about a hundred steps, the passage gradually widened. I don’t know if it was Cui Miao’s illusion. , he looked forward as if there was a little light.

People who have been in the dark for a long time are particularly eager for light, and Cui Miao is no exception. He unconsciously quickened his pace and walked forward for about a hundred steps. Suddenly, a step appeared at the corner, and his right foot was empty, and he suddenly lost weight. feeling, startled him.Cui Miao wiped the cold sweat off her forehead. Just as she was about to move forward, she vaguely heard footsteps. As the footsteps got closer and closer, the darkness in the distance was gradually illuminated. Cui Miao quickly closed her eyes, Hide behind the mountain wall around the corner.Cui Miao slowed down her breathing and waited quietly for the person to approach. About 2 minutes later, the person came close, and Cui Miao could even feel the heat of the torch.

At such a time, he can still walk in the courtyard, which means that this person is not his own, and he is now in the belly of Yushan Mountain. The person who came is probably the dead man in the dark nest of the King of Qin. Now he is injured and must be dealt with enemy.Cui Miao clenched the dagger in her hand and waited with bated breath. The moment the person came into sight, the dagger pierced fiercely into the person's neck. Before the person could hum, he fell to the ground clutching his neck. Li's spirit disappeared, and he lost his breath.The wooden barrel in his hand fell to the ground, and inside was a large piece of blood dripping meat.Cui Miao picked up the torch on the ground, squatted down and carefully inspected the man on the ground. His face was covered with a black cloth scarf, and he was wearing a strong suit of the same color. When he pulled the mask off, he saw an ordinary face, similar in height and figure. , Cui Miao couldn't help but feel a little happy.Fixing the torch, Cui Miao put on the man's coat, thought for a while, and then put the man's body back, came to the secret door where the snake cave was, opened the door and threw the body in.Cui Miao sat in the dark passage and rested for a while, then continued walking forward with the torch.

Going down the steps, the passage became wider and wider. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the passage came to an end, and a huge underground square appeared in front of us, which was as big as two football fields.Two guards stood at the entrance of the passage, with weapons on their waists, stopped Cui Miao, and said, "Identity badge."

Cui Miao took out a wooden sign from his bosom, which he found from the corpse.

The guard took the ID card and looked at it carefully, then gave it back to Cui Miao, and said with a smile: "I heard that another person who went up the mountain was caught in the past two days, and some of the treasures in the snake cave have been eaten."

Cui Miao nodded, and responded casually. He didn't dare to speak. Judging from the situation, they should be familiar with each other. If the voice is not right, it is easy to expose himself.

"Okay, go back quickly, or those few will trouble you again."

Cui Miao nodded again, turned around and walked towards the square, walking very slowly, one was because of his leg injury, and the other was that he really didn't know where to go.

"Hey, you said that those people have done too much. It's okay for the outsiders, and they bully their own people. A good person's voice is ruined, and he can't even speak."

"Keep your voice down, if Ling Yi hears it, it will be bad luck for you."

Cui Miao couldn't help but rejoice in her heart when she heard the words. Fortunately, she didn't speak just now, otherwise she would have revealed her secrets.

"Seventeen come here."

The voice came from behind, Cui Miao instinctively stopped, and turned to look at the person who came.With the same attire, not to mention strangers, even acquaintances would not be able to recognize them unless they approached.

The man stood on the spot, looked at Cui Miao, and said loudly, "Waste, I called you, didn't you hear me? Your voice is ruined, is it possible that your ears are also deaf?"

Cui Miao walked towards the man with the wooden barrel. The man had a pair of red phoenix eyes, slender and pointed. If it was a woman, he would be charming, but it is a pity that this man's eyes are a little bit more hostile.

The man looked at Cui Miao with complicated eyes, and said impatiently: "Hurry up, Zero One wants to see you. It's really tiresome to dawdle all day long!"

After the man finished speaking, he turned around and left. Cui Miao followed behind with a wooden bucket, and pressed his fingers on the dagger in the sleeve.There were only a few people walking around in the huge square, and there were four exits, in the four directions of east, west, north, south, but in the dark underground, Cui Miao couldn't know the exact direction.

The two walked across the square, walked straight ahead, and walked into one of the entrances. The gatekeepers stopped the two of them, and they each took out their ID cards before letting them through.Cui Miao looked calmly at the ID card in the man's hand, which said 'Zero Nine'.And the token in his hand is seventeen, it seems that their identity token here is their name.

Walking into the entrance, there is a two-meter-wide corridor. The mountain walls on both sides have been cut into rooms one after another. A wooden sign with numbers is hung on the door of the room.Cui Miao guessed that this should be the bedrooms of these dead men.The one on the left is an odd number, the one on the right is an even number, the outermost ones are fifty and 49, and the zero one should be a stone room inside.

The two came to the room where the seventeen wooden sign was hung, the man stopped in his tracks, and said disgustedly: "Look at your sloppy appearance, go and change into clean clothes."

Cui Miao put the wooden barrel in her hand at the door, opened the door and walked in without saying a word.Just as he was about to close the door, the man followed him in, closed the door casually, and fastened the bolt.

The man pulled off Cui Miao's belt, Cui Miao was startled, then backed away, looking at the man with frowning eyes.Cui Miao's actions angered the man. He pulled off his veil, revealing a delicate face, but with an undeniable violence on his face, he said, "What? He can touch you, but I can't? Obviously you can't do anything. Can't compare to me, why does he like you?"

Speaking of the man approaching again, she stretched out her hand to pull Cui Miao's scarf, Cui Miao didn't dodge or dodge, the moment he saw his appearance, the dagger instantly caught the man's neck.

Cui Miao said with a cold face: "You'd better not act rashly!"

The man narrowed his eyes slightly, with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "A stranger barged in! Who are you and how did you get in? Where is Seventeen?"

"Dead." Cui Miao replied blankly, "What about you, do you want to die or live?"

"Dead?" The man's expression was startled, complex emotions appeared in the beautiful Danfeng's eyes, the corners of his mouth raised, and he said: "Okay, it's good to die, I wish he would die sooner."

At this moment, a cold light flashed, and while Cui Miao was not paying attention, the man pulled out the dart in his sleeve and raised his hand to strike Cui Miao's wrist.The man's movements were in full view, Cui Miao raised her right hand, the dagger pierced into the man's palm fiercely, and the dart fell in response.

Before the man could scream, Cui Miao punched him in the face.The man leaned back, but the severe pain in his hand made him stand up straight.

Cui Miao drew out the dagger, pressed it against the man's throat again, and said coldly, "You'd better not play tricks, or the next time it will stab your throat!"

The man's face turned pale from the pain, but his eyes were filled with excitement, and he said nervously: "The movements are neat and ruthless, you are very similar to me. What's your name?"

Cui Miao ignored the man's plan and stayed in this dark place all year round. There is no normal person here.He said threateningly: "I'll ask you to answer, if half a sentence is not true, I'll cut off one of your fingers, understand?"

Without fear, the man smiled and said, "If I tell the truth, what good will it do?"

Cui Miao's dagger pierced the man's skin, and a bloodstain appeared on his neck.Cui Miao said coldly, "You have no choice."

The man's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said casually, "If that's the case, then kill me."

Cui Miao confronted the man silently, seeing that there was no fear in his eyes, but excited light.Cui Miao cursed secretly, he was alone in the tiger's den, the situation was not good for him, he decided to take a step back and said, "What do you want?"

The man said without hesitation: "I want you to take me out of here alive."

Cui Miao pondered for a while, then asked, "Why are you so sure that I can take you away?"

The man smiled and said: "You are wearing Shiqi's clothes, and you are holding a wooden bucket. You must have come from the Snake Cave, which is the Ten Thousand Snake Cave. No one survived the people who were thrown into it, but you If you have done it, it is enough to show that you came prepared. With the support of the master, those who dare to move the dark nest must have at least as much power as the master, so this is the best chance to escape from the dark nest."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll regret it later?"

"If you dare to repent, even if you die, I will drag you into hell together!" The man smiled nervously, and the fierceness in his eyes turned into substance, capable of tearing people into pieces.

"If I don't die, I will definitely take you out, but there is a condition that you must agree to."

"You said."

"After you go out, you are not allowed to do any more evil. I will send someone to monitor you. If you dare to do bad things, even if you chase them to the ends of the earth, I will kill you with my own hands. Promise?"

"Wouldn't it be more convenient for you to hire me as a guard after you go out?"

Cui Miao thought about it, so she agreed and said, "Okay, I agree. You'd better keep your promise."

"What do you want to know, just ask."

Cui Miao took the dagger away, looked at his bleeding palm, and said with a frown: "You should deal with the wound first, I don't want to arouse suspicion."

"My name is Ling Jiu." The man looked at Cui Miao and suddenly smiled innocently.

"I know. I'm not familiar with this place. Find the medicine yourself."

The man walked to the bed, bent down, took out a box from under the bed, found gauze and wound medicine, sat on the bed and began to treat the wound.Seeing his strenuous effort, Cui Miao couldn't bear it, put the dagger into the sheath, and said, "Put it down, I'll do it."

Cui Miao opened the medicine bottle, sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound, and then bandaged the wound with gauze.

The man looked straight at Cui Miao, and said with a smile, "You trust me like that? Are you afraid that I will play tricks again?"

Cui Miao raised her eyebrows and said, "I don't believe you, I'm confident. If you dare to play tricks again, I'll just wipe your neck!"

The man chuckled and asked, "What's your name?"

"Of course you will know after you go out, now I am seventeen."
