As you walk in, you can hear the sound of water dripping from the top of the mine.
“Pah—”
Exceptionally clear.
Gu Huaiwei asked: "What's the matter?"
"Before we entered the dungeon, Xilingyou asked me about the Oasis Sanatorium." Bai Yuzhen licked her dry lower lip. "She asked me if there were anything in the sanatorium that didn't belong to this world."
Gu Huaiwei's voice was calm: "How did you answer?"
Bai Yuzhen said truthfully, “I mentioned the flowers held by the gentleman next to you, and the jars with insects in the hall.
She was very excited after hearing this. I don't know if I said the wrong thing... But, Manager Gu, I want to say that I am on your side! I think she has bad intentions, so you must be careful.
Gu Huaiwei suddenly stopped.
Bai Yuzhen's heart suddenly became nervous.
Gu Huaiwei just turned around and smiled at Dao: "Thank you for the reminder. I will give you some souvenirs when we return to the store."
"Ah...oh." Bai Yuzhen breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment just now, she thought that Gu Huaiwei was going to suddenly change her expression and reveal her true face.
Bai Yuzhen led the way in front. The mine was dark and long. When passing some forks, footsteps could be heard coming from other entrances.
"Is that you? Bai Yuzhen...someone here is injured...kakaka...can you come over and help us?"
"Come this way... click, click... we found the right path."
"I was wrong just now. We should not go our separate ways... Kakaka... It's safer if we stay together."
From those dark cave entrances came the calls of Fang Zhao and others.
The sound seemed far and near.
Bai Yuzhen nervously placed her hand on Gu Huaiwei's arm and whispered, "Manager Gu, ignore these voices. They're all fake."
"Is it a strange disguise?" Gu Huaiwei looked at the wrong cave entrance next to her. "You stay here. I'll go take a look."
Bai Yuzhen was stunned: "You knew it was dangerous, why did you go there?"
"I came into the dungeon to solicit customers." Gu Huaiwei gently patted the back of her hand, signaling her not to pull at her sleeve. "Just wait for me where you are. If you are really scared, I will leave He Xueyi behind to protect you."
Bai Yuzhen looked at the pure white boy next to Gu Huaiwei, whose skin was so white that it was almost transparent and had a heart-throbbing sense of holiness.
When she looked at him, he smiled faintly, like the first melting snow.
"Okay then..." Bai Yuzhen looked away a little embarrassedly. She had never seen a boy with such a clean temperament.
Gu Huaiwei was about to walk into the wrong cave entrance when He Xueyi held her back.
"Wait, Miss Manager." He Xueyi turned her wrist over, her thumb stroking the black scales left by the forest snake. Her golden eyes were filled with unreadable emotions. "The mark I left on you last time has faded. I need to mark it again."
"My wrist isn't a piece of scratch paper where I can scribble and make corrections." Gu Huaiwei handed him her other hand, "Change to this one."
He Xueyi marked her other wrist with a red coil.
"When the Linshe covered my mark, did the store manager say this?"
"Do you mind?"
Lin She is a petty guy.
If He Xueyi was also like this, Gu Huaiwei would have a headache.
He Xueyi looked at her for a moment, and seeing that she didn't avoid his gaze, he chuckled and gently changed the subject: "Ha, Miss Manager, be careful on your journey."
"Take good care of her. I'll be back soon."
Gu Huaiwei turned on the flashlight on her mobile phone and walked into the dark mine.
That red blood line connected Gu Huaiwei and He Xueyi.
The further you go in, the more humid it gets.
The air grew colder, and a chilly wind blew out from invisible cracks.
In the dark environment, Gu Huaiwei finally found the source of those sounds.
In the deepest part of the mine, the moss on the walls glowed with an unnatural green light, and subtle cracking sounds came from deep within the rocks. Some humanoid creatures were embedded in the cracks of the rocks.
The sound comes from these people's mouths.
There were also some yellowed recruitment books for miners scattered on the ground.
Some of the people on these rocks are trial-takers who have lost their way. They were swallowed by the copy and became part of the mine.
Those people's limbs have been petrified.
Only the mouth could open and close, imitating the voices of the trial-takers' companions and deceiving them into entering.
Gu Huaiwei stood on tiptoe and placed her fingers on the tips of their noses.
There were a few people who were not completely petrified, but were still breathing.
Gu Huaiwei walked up to a man whose only one-third of his body was swallowed by rocks.
She waved her hand in front of the man.
"Hello hello sir, are you still conscious enough to hear me?"
The man's lower body turned into gray stone, and his upper chest was heaving violently. His eyes were blind, and only his uncontrollable mouth could make sounds.
"Come in quickly... click, click, click... let's go together..."
The man on the rock wall was unconscious, his brain was out of control, and he had no way to respond to Gu Huaiwei.
It seems that he is unconscious.
"Never mind, let's try our best."
Gu Huaiwei thought for a moment, grabbed the man's upper body which was still outside, and pulled it out with force. Blood immediately flowed out, and the upper and lower bodies separated.
The skin on his back that was close to the rock wall was torn off. Gu Huaiwei saw that the blood vessels in his body were connected to the rock wall, as if they were symbiotic with it.
