Chapter 443 One-way Crack
Wu Xian heard wanted to stop Xu Meng from continuing.
If ghosts appear in Xu Meng's story, they can be used to light palace lanterns in exchange for safe time.
Although the 'Will of the Labyrinth' has proven through actual performance that the safe time is not absolutely safe, it is much better than nothing.
But Wu Xian hesitated for two seconds and let Xu Meng continue speaking.
"That sound was very strange. It didn't sound like a human, nor an animal, and it certainly wasn't the sound of the wind blowing through the cave. If I had to put it in a different way, it sounded like some kind of musical instrument that could make the sounds of living things. The chaotic rhythm and strange tone seemed to be cheering for our death."
"When we reached the end of the original hole, we found a dark crack there. The sound came from the crack."
"I report to my boss on the intercom."
"There was a hissing sound from the intercom. After more than ten seconds, there was a call. The boss told us to go into the crack and take a look. We didn't need to go too far. We just needed to take a look. He would give us a bonus when we came back."
Xu Meng shook his head regretfully.
Looking back now, he realized that his boss' voice was very cold, without any emotion in it.
"Tubby Chen didn't want to go, but I needed the money urgently, so I forced him to go into the crack with me."
"The crack was very wide and deep, and the light could reach far inside, so we were not too nervous. Although there were only headlamps to provide lighting, people who often work in mines would not be scared by such a thing."
"The cracks became narrower and narrower, and soon they became impassable. Baldy Chen and I wanted to go back."
"But just as we turned around, the sound suddenly accelerated, the ground began to shake, and the cracks began to widen. We were caught off guard and fell through the cracks."
"The good news is we didn't fall very far so we weren't hurt."
"The bad news is that we both fell headfirst into a sloping tunnel..."
"The tunnel was very dark and narrow. We couldn't even turn around. We couldn't leave backwards. Even if we used the intercom to call for help, there was only the hissing sound of electricity!"
"All we can do is keep climbing down, trying to find a space where we can turn around and climb back up!"
"The strange sound kept accompanying us as we kept climbing. We didn't know how deep we had climbed..."
"Then at a certain moment, we both suddenly fell down, and when we opened our eyes again, we were in this underground maze."
Xu Meng's story is over.
When he said it, his expression looked relaxed.
But Xiong Gang and Gong Xiujuan felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
This story is not horror.
I just heard some strange noises, but I didn't see any ghosts or any sudden danger.
But if you put yourself in Xu Meng's situation, you will feel a terrible depression and despair.
The two men kept climbing down in the dark and narrow cave. There was no food, no water, and no rescue. If they stayed still, they would die, but every movement would push themselves into the abyss of death.
I don’t know at which moment they will realize it.
"It's too deep. Even if the two of us turn around, we can't climb up!"
Xiong Gang patted Xu Meng on the shoulder.
"Your co-worker died. You must be very sad. Even if you were bewitched by evil spirits, you were so determined to save him. You must not want him to die."
Xu Meng was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly.
"In fact, when I think back on it now, his death even makes me happy." "Chen Sanbalzi owed me a large sum of money, but when the agreed time came to pay him back, he didn't have a penny in his hand."
"If he hadn't refused to pay me back, I wouldn't have taken the risk for the bonus, and he wouldn't have listened to me and entered the crevice with me."
"I wanted to save him at the time because I was afraid that he would die and the debt would be ruined. But now that I have come to my senses and think about it, since I have fallen into the underground maze and cannot get out, the money is meaningless. All I have left to blame him for is not paying me back."
Just complaining...
Wu Xian shook his head.
When he first heard Xu Meng's story, he was very excited, thinking that the two people had crawled all the way to the underground maze, and thus he had found a way to leave the underground maze.
But the final fall of Xu and Chen shows that this underground maze is not really underground in the real world, but an independent space.
Also.
If there really was a way to crawl out directly, the will of the maze would not have to spend the effort to lead the evil spirit out through people.
In addition, there are some contradictions in Xu Meng's words. Since he claims to be a miner, why is there only dirt and no coal ash on his body?
He claimed to be brave, but it seemed like he was just pretending.
But Wu Xian did not expose it.
It's not a big mistake to hide something from someone you meet for the first time.
After listening to the story, Wu Xian stood up and walked to the front of the temple.
The crazy woman still maintained her previous posture and looked at Wu Xian for help.
Wu Xian's heart sank when he looked at her belly.
"It's getting bigger!"
"Although the change is subtle, her belly has definitely grown a bit!"
The growth rate of this "demon baby" far exceeded Wu Xian's expectations. According to this development method, this guy should be born before the end of the seventh day.
"It seems that many of the things that happened in this cave before were to accumulate 'nutrients' for the growth of this thing. This demon baby is the big boss I need to face in this blessed land."
"The Black Lord left a child in the mad woman's belly to raise the upper limit of this 'demon baby'."
"The cave closed, squeezing out countless evil spirits in order to provide 'physical nutrition' for this demon baby."
"Let us tell ghost stories in order to provide them with 'experience' and 'spiritual nutrition'."
"There should be many things similar to the Pain Cube in this cave. These things may provide the 'nutrients' for the 'Demon Infant's' abilities."
The more Wu Xian thought about it, the more frightened he became.
If things continue to develop like this, the power of the demon baby will become stronger and stronger, and when the demon baby is born, there will only be two possibilities.
One possibility is that the demon baby is like the 'evil dragon' transformed by Liu Baoyu, who will wreak havoc on the world as soon as it is born and will not care about the lives of these minions. In this way, Wu Xian can pass the level easily.
One possibility is that the demon baby will hunt them down, and they will need to defeat the demon baby or survive until the seven-day deadline to escape.
But Wu Xian didn't like either of these two endings.
He stared at the crazy woman's belly and licked his lips.
Is it possible to find a way to turn the demon baby into a premature baby, and then use the umbilical cord of the premature baby to strangle him to death?
