The cell was only about 15 square meters, and the ceiling was very high, about 3 meters.

Because the nearest wall lamps are on the two walls outside the iron bars, the cells are mostly dark.

The entrance to the tunnel is in the darkest corner, making it impossible to clearly see if someone might fall in at any moment.

Cheng Shuang thought for a moment, then ordered the monster to guard the cave entrance while she and Sun Han searched around the cell, just in case there was another way out!

Sun Han specifically searched dark corners where it was difficult to notice anything amiss, especially the two blind spots against the wall.

Cheng Shuang then went to study the door lock.

Although the cell was damp and stuffy, like an underground chamber, it was clean and free of the mosquitoes and rodents found in old, dilapidated cells. The straw on the floor was slightly messy from being trampled on, but after pulling it aside, Sun Han bent down and found that there was a brick floor underneath.

It's just the most ordinary kind of red brick, not fixed with cement, you can easily pry one off.

Since he could move them, Sun Han didn't want to let them go. He put on his thick gloves and started moving bricks little by little.

Cheng Shuang knocked on the iron fence a few times to confirm that it was hollow iron, and then relaxed.

She would never act rashly if she followed the rules, but when there is no way to retreat, it is best to prepare another option for herself.

The hollow iron can be left for the bear cubs to handle; they can bend as many as they want.

Baby Bear: I didn't! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!

There was a small door in the iron fence, locked with an extremely thick iron chain. The lock was a very ordinary brass lock, but there were a few thin spider webs in the keyhole, cleverly sealing it shut.

Cheng Shuang raised her small flashlight and shone it at the top corner of the cell. The dim light couldn't reach that high, and she could only vaguely see that the top was clean and had no totems or shapes. Only in the middle of one wall was there a clear spider web.

Although the light was dim, the web was so large that she was able to spot it immediately.

The spider silk was quite thick, like a defective, artificially made fake. It was the kind of cheap white cotton thread prop usually used in prank videos, with gaps so large that you couldn't even catch a fish.

The little girl scratched her face. "I've encountered big spiders before, so I'm not afraid!"

It is said that there is some kind of connection between spiders and spider webs. She slowly followed the spider web on the lock and found a thin beaded thread. Her eyes followed the direction the beaded thread crawled, past the iron gate, past a wall, and then it disappeared into the ground. Because the ground was not well lit and the straw was too messy, the possibility of continuing to track it was not high.

The trail went cold.

Just as Cheng Shuang sighed, Sun Han suddenly called out, "Come and take a look, there's a cellar here."

cellar?

The little girl turned around abruptly, ran over and grabbed Sun Han's hand as he continued to move bricks. At this moment, two palm-sized holes had been opened in the red bricks on the ground. It was dark inside and could not be seen clearly. Only a faint fishy smell could be smelled.

Sun Han noticed the seriousness in Cheng Shuang's expression. After working together for a long time, he quickly began to fill the hole back in.

However, things were not so easy. In the dim environment, she could not see what was happening, but Cheng Shuang had a keen sense of smell. Coupled with the strange alarm she heard, she instinctively tried to pull Sun Han away.

A gust of wind carrying a foul stench swept past, and instead of pulling Sun Han away, she was forcefully pushed away by a panicked Sun Han.

Cheng Shuang slumped to the ground in a disheveled state. The little brown bear jumped in front of her and roared defiantly in Sun Han's direction.

All of this happened in just a few seconds. The little girl watched as a huge, black, skeletal insect leg, as black as coal, pierced through Sun Han's chest and abdomen from behind, drawing out a spray of blood.

If Sun Han hadn't pushed her away in time, that long, sharp insect leg would have pierced through her forehead.

Sun Han was slowly lifted into the air, and blood dripped down the thick black antennae on the insect's legs to the ground, then seeped through the cracks in the bricks.

He stared wide-eyed at the unusual activity in the 'cellar,' then suddenly looked up and shouted frantically to Cheng Shuang, "Get out of the way!"

The brick floor became much sparser because of the gap, and the insect leg that pierced Sun Han took advantage of the widening gap to emerge from the deep underground. Now, a sharp, curved, black claw like a sickle has emerged from the crack in the ground.

Like a radar, it swayed left and right, quickly targeting Cheng Shuang, who was sitting on the ground.

Cheng Shuang instinctively held her breath. The strange, mournful screams foreshadowed impending danger, but the key was nowhere to be found, and Sun Han was hanging in mid-air.

Before the young girl could even consider a way to escape and save the others, the ground suddenly began to tremble, gradually increasing in speed, as if an earth dragon were turning over. Then, bricks began to collapse and shatter from the center, crackling and splintering. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the red bricks were connected by thin, highly adhesive spider silk. A few broken silk threads wouldn't cause the entire ground to collapse, but they were enough to awaken the monster in the cellar.

The steps carrying Sun Han rose higher and higher until they reached the roof of the prison cell, where the dark shadows seemed unable to fully extend due to the cramped space.

The bear cub reacted much faster than Cheng Shuang. It quickly grew larger, scooped up the little girl with one paw, and used the other to pry open a gap in the iron fence.

Before leaving the cell, Cheng Shuang turned back and called out uncertainly.

Sun Han replied through gritted teeth, "You better hide!" Once he activated his skill, such a narrow place could easily implicate Cheng Shuang, so he had been looking for the right opportunity.

Almost simultaneously, Long Zhiyan flew out of the cell with Cheng Shuang and Xiong Baobao, and the red brick floor collapsed completely.

A rustling sound accompanied the appearance of a monster with a pair of enormous claws, revealing its ferocious form.
