Every day I'm on the verge of death

When Lu Jifeng woke up suddenly, he found that the sun had already risen, and the monster they had been waiting for all night did not appear, not even the water monkey that He Tong mentioned.

It was only now that Lu Jifeng realized belatedly that they might have been tricked by the old village chief, and the broken bowl would allow them to spend the whole night in peace.

"He Tong, did you wash the dishes the night before yesterday?"

Because he didn't sleep all night, He Tong, who only squinted for a while at dawn, was rubbing his eyes that couldn't be opened and yawning: "I washed it, what's wrong?"

"Did that old man, the village chief, also tell you not to throw the bowl?"

He Tong didn't know the purpose of Lu Jifeng's question, but he answered honestly.

"Correct."

"Damn! We were tricked by him."

Lu Jifeng pinched the center of his eyebrows. He was a little confused because he hadn't slept all night, but they still had things to investigate, such as where the village chief's son was.

"Catch up on sleep during the day, and tonight we'll go see what's buried under the big locust tree."

Tomorrow is the day when the village chief will hold a wedding banquet. They found new mud next to the big locust tree before. They originally planned to find time to look at it, but they never had the chance.

And last night because of what the village chief said, after Tang Wuyin broke the bowl again, the four of them sat foolishly all night trying to see what the deadly thing was, but nothing appeared.

……

They slept throughout the day, and the village head didn't show up. It wasn't until nightfall that they saw the village head who had prepared the meals in the yard.

"Come on, eat quickly, and wash the dishes after eating."

The village chief seemed not to remember what he found last night, and greeted them with a normal face. If they hadn't clearly remembered that Tang Wuyin had put a knife on his neck, they would have wondered if last night was a dream.

After dinner, Lu Jifeng went to wash the dishes. In order not to disturb their actions at night, he deliberately broke the bowl this time. He paid special attention to the bowl that was broken yesterday, but it was no longer in the trash. It's in the bucket.

The village head still asked him if he had broken the bowl as yesterday.

"Not broken."

The village head nodded and shook the old cattail fan in his hand and went back to the room. In order not to make the village head suspicious, the four of them also went back to the room together when the village head returned to the room. Back to the yard.

"Old Feng, I don't know if there is really something in it, or let's forget it."

The range of new soil is very wide, and it is very likely that the village chief wants to plant something after weeding, but in an escape game, Lu Jifeng didn't realize that such a weird village chief would honestly grow vegetables in his yard.

"Dig, if you can't dig anything, it's mine."

Because they were afraid of waking up the village chief, they didn't dare to make any big moves.Fortunately, the soil was new soil that had not been filled for a long time, and the soil was not hard, so it was easy for them to dig.

After digging for about ten minutes, they dug a secret door, and when they opened it, they saw a low secret passage. Because there was no light source, they couldn't tell how deep the secret passage was.

Lu Jifeng lay down on the ground and stretched his head to look down. After a second, he retracted. There was no air circulation underneath for a long time. Just being at the entrance of the secret passage made people feel that they were not breathing well.

"It looks like a cellar or something."

He Tong, who was standing on one side, stroked his chin and said in thought, "This...isn't the village chief's place to hide wine."

After the air circulated for a few minutes, Lu Jifeng lit a few torches. After entering the game, most of the things outside the game could not be used, so he could only use such a primitive method.

He handed one of them to He Tong, and then pointed to the bottom: "Go down and have a look and you'll know."

He Tong was the first to go in and Tang Qiu followed behind him, followed by Lu Jifeng and Tang Wuyin. This secret passage was wide enough for two adults to walk side by side, and they would have room to retreat if something unexpected happened.

They went down for about 10 minutes, and they came to a parallel passageway. The two sides of the passageway were filled with oil lamps, and these oil lamps were lit at the same moment they walked in.

"I have a feeling that we are robbing graves..."

He Tong stared at the row of oil lamps with a solemn face. On both sides of the passage was an underground river, and the river water had a strong smell of blood, fish, earth, and the stench of rotting flesh.

The combination of these smells made them dizzy. No wonder the village chief sprinkled so many herbs in the yard.

"This place...is very strange, and I have always had a question. All the fishermen are against the village chief's idea of ​​marrying his son a wife, but they don't have the slightest resistance to the village chief himself."

What the owner of the houseboat said, "He's the village head," may not mean what he first thought.

"What is the reason why they don't reject the village chief?"

They couldn't get an answer to this matter for the time being. The passage they had walked for more than ten minutes still had no end in sight. They walked in a straight line without any signs for a long time, which made them feel impetuous.

Except for the regular oil lamps placed on both sides of the passage, there were almost no signs for them to confirm whether they were moving forward. Lu Jifeng even felt that they were always spinning in circles.

"A Yin, leave a mark on the wall first."

If they encountered the same situation as the campus copy, then they are stuck here now, if not...then move on.

In order to be more recognizable, Tang Wuyin drew an X on both walls. When moving forward this time, they also need to pay attention to whether the X as a mark will appear on both sides.

However, half an hour later, the four of Lu Jifeng looked at the two walls on both sides, and they all fell silent after X appeared for no reason at the same distance from the oil lamps.

Yes, there is an oil lamp and an X on the walls on both sides. In such a situation, there is no possibility of leaving a mark.

"Is this game trying to mislead us?"

The game is really getting more and more interesting, and the big X that appears makes it impossible for them to leave any iconic things.At the same time, it may be because this passage is really a circulation space, or it wants to make them misunderstand that it is a circulation space.

"My advice is to turn back."

Although Tang Qiu hadn't entered the game a few times, his attitude was quite calm.

"No, go ahead."

Lu Jifeng always felt that what they were looking for was ahead, and it was not worth leaving now, and he had a feeling that the dungeon was forcing them to leave this passage.

"Xiaoqiu, if you're scared, go back first, look at Brother Yin, and then at you... Tsk tsk..."

He Tong put his arms around Tang Qiu's neck, with a regretful expression on his face, as if to say that once Tang Qiu turned around, he would be a coward through and through.

He Tong had always acted like he was doing nothing right, but under such a depressing situation, He Tong's nonsense made them feel a lot more relaxed.

"Okay, stop making trouble and go on."

This time Lu Jifeng walked in the front, and Tang Wuyin followed closely behind He Tongduan, because they couldn't see any danger in this passage for the time being, so they can be said to be advancing at full speed this time.

Half an hour later, they finally saw an iron gate, which was about the size of an ordinary courtyard gate in the village, and it was not locked. Lu Jifeng pushed it lightly, and the door opened.

The stench inside the door became stronger. The black space was lit by the oil lamp on the wall because the door was pushed open. The humid air hit the faces of the four people along with the stench. The youngest Tang Qiu couldn't hold back holding the door to vomit out.

Behind the door is a deep pool, the water in the pool is very turbid, and there are some animal fats floating on the water surface.

There is an iron cage above the water pool, and a woman is imprisoned in the cage. She does not know how long she has been imprisoned here, but from her slightly shaking body, it can be seen that she is not dead, she just lost her life due to lack of water or hunger. consciousness.

From time to time, something was gliding across the bottom of the pool, and from the waves it caused when it swam, it could be seen that the size of that thing was at least as big as two adults.

"A Yin, is there a way to save that girl?"

The iron cage is hung in the center of the pool with iron chains, about two meters above the water surface.

If the thing in the water was as big as two adults as Lu Jifeng thought, then Tang Wuyin made a sound during the rescue, and the thing was stimulated, and it jumped up, and it only took one bite to bite the cage down.

"a bit difficult."

The biggest problem now is not whether they can save people, but that they are at least five meters away from the center of the pool. It is difficult to get to the iron cage.

Coupled with the fact that they can't make too much noise to disturb the low-level things, many things that were originally usable have become waste, such as Lu Jifeng's crossbow.

Tang Wuyin went to the wall and touched the wall. Although the wall was a little slippery, it was not impossible to climb. He took out a pair of gloves and an extremely long nylon rope from the space props, and tied one end around his waist.

"After I go up, I will fix the rope at the other end of the iron cage, and you all tighten the rope."

After speaking, he put on the gloves and began to climb up the wall. These gloves have an adsorption effect, so climbing up is relatively easy.

Tang Wuyin's idea was very simple, and Lu Jifeng probably guessed it. He climbed along the wall to the iron chain and then slid to the iron cage. As long as it went well, he only needed to fix the rope on the iron cage.

Put the girl on her back, and she can climb back safely along the rope.

Everything went smoothly, but when Tang Wuyin landed on the top of the iron cage, he discovered that there was a very small lock on the door of the iron cage, and he did not have the key to open the iron cage.

When he took out a thin needle from the space, something low suddenly popped up...

It was a mermaid, a mermaid the size of three or four adults, and it turned into a mermaid more like a human than when Tang Wuxian was recruited. There were no gills on the face, and a pair of filthy His eyeballs looked at the iron cage above.

Tang Wuyin crouched above the iron cage and did not dare to move any more, while Lu Jifeng and the others on the shore broke out in a cold sweat. One minute later, the mermaid let out a sharp cry. Boundless, thought they had been discovered.

But after the scream, the mermaid dived back to the bottom again, as if it had just surfaced to get some air.
