Chapter 2853 Bones
After hearing what the little girl said, Zhang Xu nodded, then he put the flashlight in his hand on the ground and reached out to take the thing the little girl handed to him.
After Zhang Xu took the things, Lu Xiaoxiao took out a small stool from the space and placed it one meter away from the entrance of the secret room. Then she picked up the flashlight that Zhang Xu had placed on the ground and said to Zhang Xu, "I'll help you light it, and you can focus on cracking the mechanism."
"good."
More than two hours later, Lu Xiaoxiao yawned for the one hundred and thirty-second time. Just as she was about to use a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, she heard Zhang Xu say "OK", which immediately made her wake up.
So she immediately stood up and walked towards Zhang Xu, then watched Zhang Xu slide the five-claw hook in his hand down the stairs.
"We can go down now." Zhang Xu said to the little girl after completing the final inspection.
"Okay." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she put the small stool and tools into the space, and followed Zhang Xu to the basement.
However, for safety reasons, she and Zhang Xu took the wooden warehouse out of the space and held it in their hands.
"Aren't they here yet?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Zhang Xu after following him for a few minutes.
"No, but I heard the wind, they should be here soon."
"Then be careful."
"good."
Lu Xiaoxiao followed Zhang Xu for a few more minutes, and she finally saw a faint light. So she excitedly and nervously clenched the wooden basket in her hand and slowly approached the light.
"Be careful." When Zhang Xu saw something shooting towards them, he quickly took the little girl to the wall.
"What's wrong?" Lu Xiaoxiao was walking behind Zhang Xu so she didn't see the thing being shot at them, so she asked Zhang Xu.
"A hidden weapon was shot at us just now."
"What is it?"
"I don't know. It was too fast and I couldn't see clearly."
"Then let's be careful next time."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xu dodged more than ten rounds of hidden weapons, they finally arrived at the deepest part of the basement, and then they were shocked by the scene in front of them.
Because what was hidden in the basement was not gold, silver, jewelry, weapons or explosives, but more than a dozen people and piles of bones.
Looking at the number of bones, there must be dozens of them. What on earth were the Mao family doing? Why did they lock people up in the basement and pile up so many bones?
"Zhang Xu, I... am a little scared." After Lu Xiaoxiao calmed down from her anger, she looked at the pile of bones and felt that they were all staring at her, so she pulled Zhang Xu's sleeve and said to him.
"Don't be afraid, they won't do anything to you. I'll go ask them why they are locked up here." Zhang Xu said after reaching out and touching the little girl's head.
"I'll go with you."
"Okay." After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he pulled the little girl towards the person closest to them.
When they came in front of the man, they saw that he kept backing away, but because he was trapped in an iron cage, he had no way to retreat before he could get far.
"Don't be afraid, we are good people. I just want to ask why you are locked up here." Zhang Xu asked the man softly.
“Wuwuwu…wuwuwu….”
"Zhang Xu, his tongue is probably cut off, otherwise he wouldn't just shake his head and not speak." Seeing that the man trapped in the cage kept shaking his head and didn't speak, Lu Xiaoxiao said to Zhang Xu.
Zhang Xu nodded after hearing what the little girl said. He also noticed this, so he only asked one question and then stopped.
