Chapter 31: Entering the base by mistake

"What's going on here?" Gao Xia asked.

"I don't know, maybe we've arrived at an important place." Pusheng stared at the room. They felt damp and a little cold just walking in it, and they slept on the floor, so it's no wonder they weren't sick.

They walked slowly, watching as they walked, hoping to find some clues, but unfortunately, it seemed like an abandoned base, and there was no one there.

After a few minutes the last cell was reached, and before them the passage narrowed again.Along the way, Pusheng roughly counted, and there are at least a hundred houses. In this way, this is a large and hidden laboratory.But what is strange is what about the experimental body here?Why are none of them missing?

Gao Xia saw the way Pusheng lowered his head to think, and knew that he was full of questions just like himself.Pu Sheng was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice Gao Xia who had stopped, and was grabbed by Gao Xia.

Only then did Pusheng recover from his trance, and looked at Gao Xia blankly, Gao Xia stared at Pusheng with a complicated expression before looking forward, Pusheng turned his head and looked in his direction .

What appeared in front of them was a huge iron gate, or a whole wall that was poured into iron blocks, three meters high and ten meters wide.At the bottom right there is a small door, which is a normal small door, pulled out and locked with a large iron lock.

"Behind this...?" Gao Xia wanted to say something, but felt at a loss for words.The longer he stayed here, the more uneasy he felt.

"I'll try to open it..." Pusheng walked over and picked up the lock with his hand.

"How is it?" Gao Xia leaned on Pusheng and asked.

"This is called a Citi lock. It's out of stock in the market for a long time, and it's a bit difficult to open." Pusheng looked around, couldn't help saying "Huh?" and said, "This kind of lock is a bit strange. They are rare, and the structure inside is very complicated, and it was made by a famous old locksmith, and this is the first time I have seen the real thing.” Pusheng lowered his head and took a closer look, the lock seems to have existed for a long time Yes, it's rusty, it feels prickly to the touch, let go to see the rust on the first hand.

This lock has a half-moon shape, most of the patterns on it have rusted away, and you can vaguely see how luxurious it was back then.Although this lock is big but not rough, it still looks quite delicate now.Pusheng turned the lock over and faced the keyhole.The keyhole is very round and very small, so small that it is abnormally small, only the size of a toothpick.Normal lockholes generally start from big to small, so that it is easy to insert the key and open it.If the keyhole is so small but the inside is so big that the key cannot be inserted, then the lock is a useless lock.Now this 'disused lock' is here, which made Pusheng stunned all of a sudden.

Pusheng doesn't know much about locks. He only heard that there was once a very powerful locksmith. Every lock he made was the only one in the world, and there was only one key, except for that key. Nothing can open it, because no one knows the structure inside except the locksmith.Moreover, every lock that a locksmith makes is very valuable, ordinary people cannot afford it, and he does not sell it to ordinary people. There are people there, threatening his life, and he retired early, and he doesn't know where he went.

Although Gao Xia didn't know anything about it, he also saw the mystery of this lock.This lock was originally different from those anti-theft door locks he had seen, and it was a bit similar to those locks on ancient costume TVs, except for the keyhole.If there is no toothpick hole, this is a connected iron thallium.

Pusheng turned over on him, and then looked at the ground. The ground was very clean, except for dust, there was nothing else.Pusheng turned his head to look at Gao Xia, and said, "See if there are any small things on your body, such as wires."

Gao Xia immediately rummaged through his body, and there was nothing on him except some money and a mobile phone.Pusheng looked at it and knew that he couldn't help, so he took out a large bunch of keys stolen from the masked man and tried the keyhole.These keys are like ordinary keys, you don't even have to try to know that it will not work.

Gao Xia brought the bag to the front, opened the zipper, lowered her head and said to Pusheng: "You are quite strong, see if you can open it?" Gao Xia still remembers the way Pusheng opened the door. The appearance of breaking open the iron lock alive.

Pusheng clasped his hands on both sides, and exerted force on both sides with the strength of breastfeeding.This power tug of war lasted for 2 minutes, and finally Pusheng was defeated.He spread out his sweaty palms, but the locks were intact.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Pusheng's frustrated face, Gao Xia knew the answer.

"This lock is not made of iron. I don't know what kind of material it is inside. It is very strong and I can't get it open." Pusheng put down the lock angrily, sat down and leaned against the door to rest.

Seeing his appearance, Gao Xia also squatted down, put the bag on the ground, and searched carefully.After a minute or so, Gao Xia suddenly asked: "Is this okay?"

Pusheng looked up and saw Gao Xia holding a small black wire-like thing in his hand.The wire is crooked and looks like that.Pusheng looked at it, turned his head, turned his head and stared at it for a few seconds after a while, and then lazily rubbed over, stretched out his hand and took the thin wire.

Pusheng aimed the thin wire at the toothpick hole, without much hope, but he didn't expect that the size was just right, and it seemed that the crooked wire would get stuck, and he inserted it all at once like lubricating oil, just like this It seems that the hole is specially prepared for this wire.Pusheng was stunned, and his heart suddenly hung up. Now he is a little guilty and nervous. If he guessed correctly, maybe this is the key.Although he didn't know how this guess and premonition came about.

The length of the wire was just right for the lock, and Pusheng pushed it forward, feeling that it had reached the end.Cold sweat broke out on Pusheng's back, and his hands were still a little uncontrollable.Pusheng took a deep breath, and exerted force to the left, and the wire turned to the left along with this force, and Pusheng broke out in cold sweat even more.After turning to the left three times, the lock flicked open gently.Pusheng took out the key, feeling weak all over.

"Really opened it?!" Gao Xia pulled the bag away and asked with a smile.

"Where did you find this key?" Pusheng asked with a dark face.

"Really the key?" Gao Xia asked with a smile, seeing Pusheng's appearance of collecting debts, she obediently put away the smile and put on a serious expression.

"Here is the key," said Pusen.

"I found it in this bag."

"In the bag? Our bag?" Pusheng couldn't help frowning, walked over, took the bag, looked inside, and flipped through it anxiously.

"That's right. This is the bag. I found it in the interlayer." After Gao Xia finished speaking, Pu Sheng immediately looked at the interlayer of the bag carefully, but there was nothing inside.

Apart from him, Gao Xia came across this bag, and Zimeng might also come across it, but it's impossible for any of the three of them to have the key, right?Could it be someone else?

Pusen put the key back in the bag, pulled it up, and carried it on his shoulder.Go over and take the lock and open the door.Gao Xia also followed and stood behind him, for some reason, both of them were slightly nervous.

The door was a bit heavy, and Pusheng pulled it hard, only to open the crack just enough for one person to pass through.Pusheng turned his head to look at Gao Xia, Gao Xia stared at him, gave him an encouraging look without saying a word.Pusheng really didn't know what happened to him today, so he smiled lightly and walked in.

It was a little blurry before Pusheng and Gao Xia got used to it for a while before they could see the situation clearly.There is actually no difference between here and outside, only a little darker.Gao Xia looked around, the cells on both sides were much wider than the outside, like three joined together, the iron pillars were also thicker, and some horizontal iron pillars were added, square and square, more like one cage.

It was very quiet all around, as if everything had stopped breathing since they entered this place.Gao Xia couldn't help but raise his whole heart, walked up and grabbed Pusheng's sleeve.Pusheng looked quite calm on the surface, but Gao Xia still felt that his whole body was tense and nervous.

In this dim, negligibly dark space, hundreds of eyes stared at them with red light.These pairs of red eyes looked at them from all corners of the cell, maybe they were doing other things before they came in, but when they saw them, they immediately quieted down, these beasts were locked here, nothing happened to do, and then suddenly two food items appeared, and the beasts thought they were hungry.

Gao Xia was guilty of staring at him with eyes that seemed to have stripped him naked, and his back felt chilly.As long as he can see, at a glance, there are these hungry red eyes.It seems that he has entered the wolf's den.Seeing these eyes, Gao Xia suddenly remembered the little boy Hei Shu he saw in the square for the first time, that little boy also looked at him with such eyes at that time.That look was full of desire, so straightforward and terrifying that he could never forget it.

"Suoso" Gao Xia heard a strange sound.First there was a little 'suosuo', then 'suosuosuo', and then continuous 'suosuo' sounds entered his ears, and they became louder and louder.Gao Xia saw those red eyes that were a little distance away from him getting closer and closer to him, slowly moving towards him.He didn't even blink his blood-red eyes, just staring at them.

Gao Xia broke out in a cold sweat, turned around, pulled Pusheng, and ran back.Gao Xia threw herself on the cold door, feeling a surge of warmth rushing up.Pusheng was also a little absent-minded just now, but after being pulled by Gao Xia, he also came to his senses, and immediately went to push the door.

Surprisingly, the door did not open.If I remember correctly, it took less than a minute for them to enter here, half of the door was opened when they entered, and neither of them closed the door smoothly.What's even more strange is that the two of them were less than 1 meters away from the door. In such a short time and such a short distance, the door was closed so quietly, when neither of them noticed?Maybe it was because the scene just now was too scary, both of them were stunned, so they didn't pay attention to what was behind them.But who was it that quietly closed the door?
