Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Abyss
The deep and winding underground passage seems to have no end in sight...
The passage is narrow and only two people are allowed to pass through at most.
One person led the way in front, another was at the rear, and Jiang Xi was in the middle.
If this was an interesting underground adventure, then this position made Jiang Ying feel very safe.
But, this is a kidnapping.
She was taken from her home in the Qingyuan Guild and tied up in a tunnel.
As for where the end of this tunnel leads to, Jiang Xi could guess without asking any more questions.
Although she was not very familiar with the faces of the two people who kidnapped her, they were definitely not unfamiliar to her.
The Paradise Guild...Lu Suye's subordinates.
She knew it, she knew it long ago, he was coming to catch her again.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Qingyuan Guild was busy dealing with the mutated corpse cave and Jingcheng was not by his side, he attacked him again.
This underground passage was obviously dug in advance, just waiting for this day.
Just now, they forcibly abducted her and after entering the passage, they originally wanted to tie her hands and put tape on her mouth to prevent her from screaming.
But Jiang Qian threatened and warned that if they dared to treat her so rudely, she would complain to Lu Suye when she saw him and ask him to punish them both severely.
Under the president's terrifying intimidation, the two immediately gave up the safest approach and begged her not to complain. They were also following orders and did not want to hurt her.
So, after entering the tunnel, they did not take any further measures against Jiang Xi, but only watched her from the front and back.
They were confident that the president's wife was an ordinary person without any special abilities, and they thought that even if she wanted to run, she wouldn't be able to get far, and they could easily catch her.
This also gave Jiang Xi an opportunity to take advantage of.
"Are you sure this is the road?" We've been walking for so long, why haven't we reached the end yet?
Logically speaking, they had walked through this passage when they came here, and now they have been walking for more than three times as long as before, but they still haven't reached the end. What's more terrifying is that they seem to have been going around in circles, as if they had encountered a zongzi.
"Of course," the kidnapper from the Paradise Guild who was leading the way said it without hesitation. He had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem. He was the one who dug this road, how could he not be clear about it?
He is a person with supernatural powers who is good at exploring and digging. He is responsible for the huge underground air-raid shelter under the Paradise Guild, and his skills are quite good.
He would not be mistaken. Although he had dug several exits near the target location just in case, there was only one way leading to the interior of the Qingyuan Guild.
Moreover, the reason why they had to take this hidden underground passage was to avoid most of the Qingyuan Guild's combat team on the ground to avoid any complications.
When they reach the end of the road, the people from the Paradise Guild will be there to pick them up, and then their mission will be completed.
"Wow!?" Suddenly, the kidnapper who was left behind cried out in surprise, "Look, this stone...?"
What he was talking about was a piece of copper ore embedded in the rock wall. Because it just protruded out, like the shape of a switch button, he had looked at it several times when he passed by before, thinking it was gold.
Finally, after walking for such a long time, I saw it again!
This proved that his guess was correct, they had been going around in circles! ?
Things that are memorable always resonate with people. Not only him, but the kidnapper in charge also noticed this.
An extremely strange feeling spread in the hearts of the two.
Could it be that everyone has been going back in time, or that they have been circling around a certain point?
But this is clearly a flat straight road!
Why is this happening?
For a moment, both of them focused their attention on the copper ore and temporarily forgot the purpose of their trip.
From this we can see that there are obvious differences between professionals and non-professionals. People are always fascinated by things in the field they are good at.
So, when they finally came to their senses, they discovered that the president's wife, who had been standing obediently by the side, was gone!
The two of them immediately turned back to look for it.
The result is obvious, dead end.
They never expected that what stopped them was a solid earth wall.
Oh my god, where is the way we came?
"Come here quickly!" Suddenly, one of the gangsters called out to his companion.
When the excavator walked over and took a look, he was stunned.
Damn, why are there so many forks in the road?
What's even more terrifying is that at the end of all the forks in the road, without exception,
It's still a dead end.
-
While the two were studying the copper ore embedded in the wall, Jiang Qian secretly escaped.
There is only one way to get here. As long as she can run back to the first entrance, she can be rescued!
The road was quite long, and Jiang Qian was mentally prepared. She did not dare to delay for a moment and ran forward desperately.
Because, as long as the two men found out that she had escaped, they would definitely chase after her immediately, but the footsteps behind her never sounded, as if the two kidnappers had suddenly disappeared underground.
This is a good thing, right?
But at this moment, she suddenly felt a strong dizziness and nausea. Perhaps it was because she had been underground for a long time, and the pressure and lack of oxygen made her feel unwell.
She decided to rest for a while and run again later.
It was at this juncture that she heard many strange noises.
It sounded like the wind, but also like the growl of some creature, which was creepy.
She didn't dare stay here for long, so she could only muster up the courage to move forward.
However, the road ahead seemed to go more and more wrong.
First, a light came from the entrance of the passage ahead, colorful, like the aurora that only appears in the polar regions.
She remembered that ever since she entered the underground, the surrounding light had been very dim, with only the faint light from the lighting crystal stones that the two kidnappers from the Paradise Guild had sprinkled in the passage in advance.
Could it be that we have reached a fork in the road?
How is that possible? Those two people clearly said that they only dug one tunnel.
Could it be that they had reached the exit? She could only hold on to this hope to comfort herself.
With a nervous and excited heart, Jiang Qian continued to move forward, but she was already quite scared at this time.
It can be said that from the moment she was kidnapped by the people from the Paradise Guild until she found the right opportunity to escape, her idea was to rely on her own strength to save herself and not cause trouble to others.
Moreover, she knew that the Qingyuan Guild and Jingcheng had something very important to do today, so if she hadn't had no other choice, she wouldn't have made that call.
The call was connected quickly. Although she wanted to tell Jingcheng where she was, she really had no idea about her situation.
After walking towards the light for a while, I walked into darkness again.
She didn't know where the aurora she had seen earlier had gone.
However, when she wanted to look back, the ground beneath her feet moved!
She let out a scream.
earthquake?
This was her first reaction.
My luck can't be so bad that I happened to encounter an earthquake while I was underground?
It was at this time that her call signal was completely cut off.
She lost her only chance to connect with the outside world.
In the world around us, thunder rumbled and the earth shook.
Her legs and feet were shaken by the loud rumbling sounds coming from underground. When the terrifying sounds finally disappeared, the colorful auroras appeared right in front of her in the underground where the smoke and dust gradually cleared.
Then, she watched the road in front of her, along with the mud walls on both sides, collapse together.
A cliff appeared right in front of her.
Below the cliff was a scene that Jiang Qian would never forget in her life.
The torn earth is still in an active state of continuous fission. There is a strange light in the sky, but below is a bottomless abyss.
In the bottomless abyss, there is a boundless void of darkness, like a monster with its huge mouth open.
The huge suction emanating from the ground made it almost impossible for Jiang Qian to open her eyes.
Soil, minerals, plant roots, beetles... none of them could escape and were swallowed by this huge mouth of the abyss.
With an ominous premonition in her heart, Jiang Qian immediately ran back, as if racing with death. The road behind her was constantly breaking and collapsing, and everything around her was sucked away, leaving no trace.
The bottomless abyss is rapidly expanding outward, from an initial crack, gradually expanding into a large pit, and then to a hollow black hole covering the entire underground.
All substances that can be absorbed are nutrients that nourish its growth, and it wants to eat everything!
In the end, Jiang Ying failed to run across the abyss, and the road supporting her body was sucked away by the gravity from below before she did.
Her feet suddenly felt empty, and the subsequent feeling of weightlessness and tearing of her body made her panic.
She's going to fall!
not yet.
On the edge of the cliff, the whole person was hanging in the air.
She didn't fall because a hand caught her.
