This NPC really has a problem

After all, the distance was very close, and the sound of the bell was very clear when it reached the City Lord's Mansion, but after the door of the dungeon closed with a bang, all the sounds were blocked out.

The dungeon echoed with the sound of iron doors being closed again and again, and there was a dead silence inside, as if there was no living thing except Chen Jin and the guards who escorted him.The design of the cell is completely in line with Chen Jin's imagination of the ancient cell. It is dark, damp, and the mottled marks on the wall seem to be left after the splashed blood dries up. People are crazy.

Chen Jin swallowed, and he spoke to the city guard who was supporting him: "Is there something wrong with the bell just now?"

It seems that talking can relieve tension.

But the city guard had a cold face and didn't make any answer.

The city guard always had this attitude all the way, with a cold expression, sharp eyes staring straight ahead, without even looking at Chen Jin, but the arm holding him was so strong that he couldn't break free, unlike the small captain who brought them to the city lord's mansion. It's like coming out of a system.

Chen Jin was so scared that he shut up. Even if the city guard didn't say a word, he thought in his heart. To be precise, it was because they didn't speak that Chen Jin felt scared.

The city guard gave him the feeling like those maids in the city lord's mansion, simply speaking, he was not like a living person.

For Chen Jin, the luck among misfortunes at this time is that he didn't directly become like Zhong Changya.

Not long after he threw down the city lord, he was controlled by the swarming city guards, but he also managed to buy Xu Yan time to escape.Chen Jin was so worried about Xu Yan that he didn't even pay attention to what the people around him said.

Chen Jin didn't react until he heard the names of Bai Zhu and Lu Ren.

At that time, Xu Yan had already escaped from the City Lord's Mansion and jumped directly into the Mirror Lake, not knowing where to land or where he would end up.

So "Zhong Changya", who followed coldly, stepped forward and told the city lord and their accomplices.

The city lord frowned when he heard Lu Ren's name, but he didn't say much. He ordered the city guard to find out where these two people lived, and planned to go to their residence to arrest them directly and block Xu Yan by the way.

The city lord who captured Xu Yanqian did not intend to deal with Chen Jin, and a group of people blocked in the corridor. The city lord looked at the open window with a gloomy expression.

Not long after, the first batch of city guards who went to arrest people came back and told the residents around the city lord that Lu Ren and Bai Zhu had gone to the main church, so the city lord sent another team to the church, and that team still returned to Lu Ren squatting at the residence.

The three of them didn't know when they would be able to catch them back. Seeing that it was getting late, the city lord didn't intend to continue waiting in the corridor.

Chen Jin was thrown into a small prayer room by the city guards. There was nothing in the room except tables, statues, and a few candles. The windows were never opened, so that those who stayed inside felt that they could breathe more than in the outside world. difficulty.The door of the prayer room was sent outside and locked. Chen Jin failed to escape and could only sit down on the cold floor of the prayer room.

He searched all over the prayer room, and there was indeed no secret door that would allow him to escape.

Under the candlelight, the statue's smile looked eerie and weird. Chen Jin didn't dare to face it, let alone turn his back to it. He could only sit on his side in a posture where he could see the movement of the statue without facing him directly. night.

What happened to Zhong Changya at night, Chen Jin felt that he was probably too cold tonight, so he took out his mobile phone and sent Xu Yan some "last words". push away.

Chen Jin reflexively threw the phone back into the inventory.

Two city guards came in from the door, they were different from what Chen Jin saw before.

The two tall and burly guards seemed to be deaf. They didn't respond to Chen Jin's questions such as "who are you?"Chen Jin's physique and strength were not small, but in the hands of the two of them, he was dragged all the way to the iron gate of the dungeon like a weak kitten.

As soon as the door was opened and he saw the scene inside, Chen Jin's heart skipped a beat.

I don't know what a good place it is at first glance.

……

Chen Jin was carried to the depths of the dungeon. After all, his height was similar to that of a city guard, and his feet basically dragged on the ground, dragging two scratches on the ground that had not been cleaned for a long time.

He wanted to ask the city guard something, but he was too scared to ask.

What he said earlier was not nonsense, Chen Jin really felt that something was wrong with the bell.

He has been in this dungeon for two whole days. He has heard the four rounds of bells, and knows that no matter it is the evening bell or the evening bell, the interval between each ringing is the same. rhythm.

But this time the bell sounded hastily. It didn't take long for Chen Jin to hear one sound, and another sound followed.Chen Jin was a little uneasy, always feeling that something big had happened.

But the sound insulation effect of the dungeon is really good, he can't hear the bells from the outside at all, and he doesn't know what's going on outside.

As soon as this thought arose, Chen Jin felt the arm holding him shake.

No way? !

Chen Jin's expression changed.

The city guard who was supporting him seemed to stagger a bit, and one hand held the hilt of the long sword at his waist.

Chen Jin's face was pale.

However, the long sword was not able to be used by Chen Jinlai. The city guard seemed to lose all strength suddenly, and led Chen Jin to fall forward. Feeling the pain, he subconsciously gritted his teeth.

The city guard in heavy armor could support the weight of two people alone, and it took Chen Jin a lot of strength to push them aside and stand up.

The city guard who was turned over was motionless and unconscious.

Chen Jin stood on the spot without daring to move for a while, and after realizing something was really wrong, he tremblingly stretched out his hand to check the city guard's breath, lest these two people were pretending to be dead.

Chen Jin didn't feel breathing, checked other places, didn't feel pulse, didn't feel heartbeat.

Chen Jin looked bewildered, what happened, why did such a good person die suddenly?

Chen Jin couldn't figure it out, and didn't have time to find the answer.

He walked through the gap between the two corpses and ran back in a hurry, but when he climbed the steps, he was shocked to find that the iron door of the dungeon was locked.

Chen Jin had no choice but to run back again, boldly groping around the two corpses, but he couldn't find the key.

The iron door seemed to be automatically locked when closed from the inside, and only those outside could open it.

Chen Jin was helpless, he didn't know for a while whether he wanted to stay with these two corpses until the end of time or run to slam the door and throw himself into the trap.

Just when Chen Jin didn't know what to do, deep in the dungeon, there was the sound of chains being dragged.

……

The girl seemed to have finally calmed down, perfectly covering up the hysteria in her eyes.

She lowered her eyes slightly, met Lu Ren's gaze, raised the corners of her lips and showed a flawless smile: "Do you know where that is?"

Lu Ren replied calmly: "The bell tower."

"That's a formation eye. The magic circle is engraved on the inner wall of the giant clock." There was no trace of anger in the girl's tone, "It was destroyed by the people of the Holy See."

Lu Ren remembered what the girl told him not long ago.

She said that in order to end the reincarnation of the City of Reflections, the magic circle at the eye of the circle must be changed.

The words of the bell ringer clearly stated that the way to end reincarnation is to break the magic circle.

Lu Ren knew exactly who was lying.

But he didn't intend to expose it, but asked calmly and flatly, "What should we do?"

The author has something to say: I am sorry because I was notified in the morning that I will report an assignment tomorrow, so I have been preparing all day long.

I can only write at night.
