Chapter 159 It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s hell on earth!
With the help of night vision goggles that allow him to see at night, An Si successfully found a secret door on the ground in the northwest corner.
Probably for better concealment, the secret door was covered with moss and weeds. As the land was very humid, the wooden door was also soaked and became very heavy.
Gu Yanchen and An Si worked together with great effort to open the wooden door, and a narrow passage that could only accommodate one person came into view.
She could clearly see Gu Yanchen's arms and fingers trembling unconsciously after he opened the secret door, indicating that he was panicked about what he was about to experience.
Ran Qingxuan reached out and held his trembling hand, giving him the most direct support.
"No matter what the person is like now, we have found our big brother!"
Gu Yanchen suppressed his excitement and nodded.
An Si stayed behind to hide the body, and the other two stood at the entrance of the tunnel and looked down. As soon as they got closer, a strong fishy smell came to their faces.
When Ran Qingxuan dodged subconsciously, his foot slipped on the moss and his right foot stepped into the first step of the passage.
Gu Yanchen had amazing hearing ability. When he heard something was wrong, he reached out and pulled the person into his arms.
The next second after she retracted her foot, several steel needles as thick as fingers suddenly shot out from both sides of the passage. If she had been a second later, her foot would have been crippled.
After Ran Qingxuan came back to his senses, he couldn't help but be amazed. Such a mechanism was not only to prevent the detainees from escaping. If an uninformed person came to rescue them, they would probably be crippled in the next second.
It can be seen how much effort Qi Jing put in to prevent Gu Yanzong from being rescued.
Gu Yanchen signaled Ran Qingxuan to follow him, and he took the lead and walked in front.
An Si gently closed the wooden door, and the tunnel instantly fell into darkness. The next second, the night vision goggles on the two men's heads came into play.
After walking about thirty or forty meters underground, the space in front of us began to expand. Unlike the winding tunnels we had seen on TV before, there were only two forks in the road ahead.
At the same time, the two heard coughing and talking coming from the right front.
"When will this end? I can't stay in this damn place for even one more day..."
"Okay, what else can you do besides complaining every day? You might as well practice more Gu instead of using this time. Otherwise, when the day comes when you need it, you will not know how you will explain yourself if it is not enough."
"That's easy to say. Those babies need fresh blood every once in a while. If we're not careful, they'll die in front of us. We haven't sent anyone down for several days. If this continues, they'll all die sooner or later. How can we practice anymore?"
I only heard another voice jokingly saying, "There is another one for emergency. Anyway, he said that as long as no one is killed, it will be fine."
Gu Yanchen's body tensed up instantly, and Ran Qingxuan also realized who the two were talking about.
"I advise you not to create trouble for the sake of saving trouble. That person has a Gu from my master. If he dies, be careful that my master will kill you."
"Oh, it's been fine for all these years. If we don't send someone over today, we'll go get some blood tomorrow for emergency use."
The three of them were rustling around, and no one knew what they were doing. The next second, a rustling sound that made his scalp tingle was heard, and Ran Qingxuan got goose bumps all over his body.
Gu Yanchen didn't want to wait any longer and walked out of the darkness directly.
The light in the cave was very dim. Hearing the noise behind them, one of them shouted impatiently.
"Why did it take so long? You knew we were in urgent need of blood but you didn't send someone over earlier..."
"Isn't it coming!" Gu Yanchen replied coldly with a gloomy face.
The three of them were puzzled by the strangeness of the voice and turned to look towards the door at the same time.
After the tall Gu Yanchen walked out, Ran Qingxuan also followed him out and stood beside him.
After seeing the unfriendly expressions on the two men's faces, two of them quickly reached into their chests, intending to take out their own poisonous insects to attack.
At the same time, the man with a sick face who hadn't made any movement asked, "Who are you? How did you find this place?"
Gu Yanchen pulled Ran Qingxuan behind him and approached the two people holding the poisonous insects without any intention of answering.
The thin man then unscrewed the lid of the porcelain bottle in his hand and released a black poisonous insect the size of a fingernail.
The moment the poisonous insect came out, it flew towards Gu Yanchen's face. Not knowing whether the poisonous insect would enter the body if it touched the skin, Gu Yanchen dodged quickly.
Ran Qingxuan was prepared. He took out a bottle of insecticide and quickly took out a lighter to light it.
“Come here quickly!”
The thin man's face changed instantly when he saw the fire, and he subconsciously wanted to recall the insect, but the insect rushed forward regardless until the scorching flames swallowed it up in the blink of an eye.
The other two cried out in surprise when they saw this, and the thin man also spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pu" sound.
"you..."
Pointing at Ran Qingxuan, the thin man's eyes were full of disbelief. They had spent a great deal of time and their own blood and energy raising these poisonous insects, and had already reached a state of spiritual connection with them.
He had clearly recalled the insect just now, but for a moment he felt that the insect was completely out of his control and rushed straight into the fire.
The other man with triangular eyes quietly released the poisonous insect in his hand while helping his companion. Ran Qingxuan had been paying attention to the actions of the other two people. Seeing this, he quickly put on the night vision goggles stuck on his head.
The next second, she saw a poisonous insect flying towards them very quickly, close to the ground.
"careful!"
After a quick reminder, the insecticide on his hand was also ignited by the lighter.
Thanks to the night vision goggles, the poisonous insect was as clearly visible as if it was coated with fluorescent agent.
Before it could get close, the poisonous insect was swallowed by the flames as expected.
"don't want!"
The insect burned by the fire twisted its body wildly, and after struggling for a few times, it became motionless.
The man with the triangular eyes screamed and fell to the ground. The sick man who had not moved began to panic when he saw this.
"Who are you guys, who are you guys?"
"He's here to take your life!"
Gu Yanchen stepped forward and knocked the man unconscious quickly. After Ran Qingxuan made sure that the two poisonous insects on the ground were dead, he began to search the three people's bodies.
In addition to several hundred taels of silver, she also found four bottles and shook them. A buzzing sound of objects colliding and wings vibrating came from inside.
After making sure that there were no more poisonous insects on their bodies, Ran Qingxuan took out a finger-wide cable tie and tied up the hands and feet of the three people.
Once this thing pierces you, it is impossible to break free by brute force unless you use a knife. The two of them did not rush to ask questions, but started searching the secret room directly.
After searching, they almost dropped their jaws.
Judging from the ground space, the secret room on the right occupies almost a quarter of the entire palace, and there are no less than twenty rooms of different sizes dug.
The place where the two of them were should be a study. In addition, there was not only a bedroom, a room specifically for practicing Gu, but also a kitchen and a toilet.
However, when they passed by the rooms with bars at the doors, the scenes inside really shocked them.
This is not a secret room at all; it’s not an exaggeration to call it a purgatory on earth!
