01368 The Lord of the Past (1)(2/2)
"There is a large space underground in this shelter, and there is also a ruins. We just thought that if we don't enter the tiger's den, we won't catch the tiger's cubs, and we plan to find out the truth before we die." Xiang Mubai said more straightforwardly.
Liu Ping finally got up. He glared at Xiang Mubai and said, "So? You want me to go with you?"
After Huazi and Xiang Mubai looked at each other, Yuhuazi said: "Yes, one more person will increase the chance of winning. And if my father's diary is correct, we will encounter a door in the ruins. If we want to
There have to be three people to open it."
Now that it was all said and done, Liu Ping had no reason to refuse.
But……
"Tsk... I'm good at killing people, but I've only played games in this ancient tomb exploration. Can the three of us do it?"
Xiang Mubai snorted coldly: "Damn it, if I had known you were so dirty, I wouldn't have killed that little turtle grandson."
"Little turtle grandson?"
"Brother, there are only three of us left now. If we want to leave alive, maybe we just have to go deep into the tiger's den."
Liu Ping understood. He pondered for a while and then said: "Okay, when should we leave?"
"Leave after lunch." Xiang Mubai is impatient.
"Are you in such a hurry? I don't know anything!"
"I'll just let Hanako tell you on the way. By the way, Hanako, I want to eat meat for lunch today. Can you take out all the stock in the refrigerator and stew it?"
Hanako smiled and nodded: "Okay."
"Hey? Did you hear what I said?" Liu Ping was very unhappy to be ignored.
…
Returning to the camp again, looking at the severely damaged cluster of buildings in front of him, several pictures flashed before Liu Ping's eyes.
Some were welcomed when he first arrived here, and others fled when the camp was overrun by monsters...
Now the area was quiet and the corpses were gone. Liu Ping took a deep breath and followed Xiang Mubai's footsteps.
The three of them walked through the abandoned passage and arrived at the central area of the camp, where the nightmare began.
Different from the cave Liu Ping saw for the first time a few months ago, it seemed to have come alive... The darkness that seemed to be flowing on the ground was constantly shrinking into the cave.
When you are outside, you feel like you are being targeted by the devil.
"I'll go down first and take charge of the reception. You guys wait here." Xiang Mubai said and strode towards the cave.
It didn't take long to reach the edge.
Liu Ping looked at his eyelids twitching and said out of nowhere: "Be careful."
Xiang Mubai raised his hand, jumped up, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
A shrill howl immediately erupted from the eye-like black cave, as if some giant beast had suffered a fatal blow.
Liu Ping was startled and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong? Has something happened to him?"
Hanako was much calmer: "No, this sound came from the cave."
"Ah? This thing is really alive."
"I don't know, but it is clearly written in the diary that it is sentient, maybe even alive, and very fragile." Hanako, who was already familiar with the contents of the diary, said and walked forward.
Liu Ping hurriedly followed.
After both of them reached the edge, Liu Ping realized that the darkness was more disturbing than he imagined.
As recorded in the diary.
It is sentient, and may even be alive... But as for whether it is fragile or not... Anyway, Liu Ping feels quite fragile now, like a little girl.
"Okay, come down." Xiang Mubai's voice came from the communicator.
Liu Ping suddenly felt relieved.
"Okay, received." After Hanako finished speaking, he turned around and locked a fixed lock on Liu Ping's waist: "Okay, let's go."
Liu Ping was stunned: "What does this mean?"
"It's easy to get lost in the process of falling. If we are tied together, we will save a lot of trouble." After Hanako finished speaking, he jumped down first.
Watching the rope on the lock keep tightening, Liu Ping became anxious: "Hey, don't be anxious!"
But it was too late, a powerful force pulled his body into the abyss.
At the moment when he fell into darkness, Liu Ping seemed to see a familiar figure, but it seemed like some kind of hallucination...
By the time he came to his senses, he had already landed.
Xiang Mubai caught the two of them steadily.
"Okay, we're all down." Xiang Mubai put the two of them on the ground, then pointed to a little light in the darkness in the distance and said, "That's our destination."
When Liu Ping heard this, he followed Xiang Mubai's hand and looked over.
Sure enough, there was a faint light like a candle flickering in the darkness. It was really easy to miss it if you didn't look carefully.
At this moment, there was only less than three meters of light around Liu Ping, and everything else was hidden in darkness. Even the lighting on his shoulder could not touch it.
"This place is too dark." Liu Ping frowned and said something uncomfortable.
"Those things that absorb light are not some kind of paint. I always thought I was right until I saw them dragging Professor Liu away, yes... dragging away..." Hanako began to "talk to himself" again.
Liu Ping knew that she was retelling the records in her diary, but the content was really disturbing.
"Pay attention, the three of us cannot be separated, we must advance and retreat together." Xiang Mubai said and walked towards the light in the distance first.
Upon seeing this, Liu Ping quickly followed.
Hanako was not slow either, but she seemed very nervous.
This makes people a little concerned.
"Hanako, didn't you come down here before?"
Hanako shook her head: "I'm not sure, it's always changing down here, and it's random every time..."
"Random?"
"Yes, when I came down last time, there was water everywhere here, and it was still so dark." Xiang Mubai said, launching a signal flare forward, but the originally bright illumination flare continued to explode after making a burst sound.
Not even a bit of light escaped.
"Look, this place is really evil."
It's very evil...Liu Ping thought he had a deep understanding of the filth and filth in this world, but he didn't expect that it was just a farce between people.
All this darkness seems humble in the face of a greater reality.
"Then how do you determine that the place with light is our destination?"
"It's written in the diary." Xiang Mubai said.
"Is it written in the diary?" Liu Ping was a little doubtful and even more surprised.
"Yes, it's written in the diary." Hanako's voice was very confident.
Now that things have happened, there is no point even if Liu Ping wants to doubt him.
The three of them just kept walking forward.
At first, their pace was neither urgent nor slow, but as they walked, Xiang Mubai's pace slowed down.
Liu Ping, who was following behind, asked, "What's wrong?"
"Not quite right."
"Ah?" Liu Ping had been awakened all the time, but the surroundings were really too dark and quiet. At this moment, except for their conversations and breathing, he could not detect any abnormality other than light.
"You stare at your feet." Xiang Mubai reminded.
Liu Ping then began to pay attention to his steps, and he was shocked to find that he was actually going backwards instead of forwards.
this?!
"Stop! Don't leave!" Liu Ping felt his scalp numb. This feeling was really bad.
All three stopped.
"Are they coming?" Liu Ping asked Hanako: "Who are those who captured Professor Niu?"
"It's Professor Liu." Huako said: "They dragged Professor Liu into the darkness. Xiao Zha and I wanted to chase him, but Xiao Zha fell down and we ran away. I thought I could find Xiao Zha as long as I walked back.
Zha, but he just disappeared... I'm not sure if I'm on the stage of the Creator, but I know that it's all too magical. The light is like a spotlight on the stage, clearly surrounding me, but dazzling me.
I can’t see all the audience under the stage…”
"Um...so they are around us?" Liu Ping pointed his gun into the darkness.
Xiang Mubai was more straightforward. He took off the heavy machine gun from his back and pulled the trigger.
The fire flickered, the bullet penetrated the darkness, but disappeared like a stone...
"Look, nothing happened." Xiang Mubai lifted his mask and smiled.
