When she learned from Zhao Ping that He Fei had gone to the basement, which was the most dangerous and least understood place in the entire castle, Cheng Ying's expression changed drastically. She became anxious and planned to go downstairs without saying a word.
Looking for the other party, he was unexpectedly grabbed by the man in glasses in front of him.
Seeing someone blocking him, and seeing that the person blocking him was Zhao Ping, in a hurry, this professional killer who had killed countless people in the real world stared at the opponent, exuding a murderous aura, and said in a serious tone: "What? You?
Want to stop me?"
Putting aside what Cheng Ying said, in fact, as soon as Zhao Ping came into contact with the other party's cold gaze, he instantly felt a strong murderous intention surrounding him. The murderous intention was so strong and rich that it spread throughout the surroundings, even to the person next to him.
Hudu felt something was wrong and subconsciously protected Ye Wei behind him. However, what was surprising was that Zhao Ping, who was facing Cheng Ying, was unmoved. The man with glasses looked calm and adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.
Still expressionless, he said to him: "I didn't stop you. The reason why He Fei went to the basement to find you is just for the sake of their safety, but you are now taking the initiative to take risks to find him. Isn't this right?
Was He Fei’s good intentions wasted?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Ying retorted: "But He Fei didn't know that we were all on the third floor at the time. Since he risked going to the basement for all of us, why can't we take a risk for him too?"
"Yes, Cheng Ying, what you said is good. I will go down to look for He Fei later! You can't live without loyalty!"
Hearing what Cheng Ying said, Peng Hu felt the same and immediately expressed his willingness to go together. At the same time, several people looked directly at Ye Wei. It was obvious that the people with different opinions planned to let the female captain make the decision.
However, before Ye Wei made the final decision for everyone, or even before she opened her mouth to say something...
Boom... boom... boom...
There was a series of knocking sounds nearby, and in the darkness of the corridor directly in front, a series of dull knocking sounds from far to near reached everyone's ears.
Hearing this sound, the expressions of the four executors who were currently at the bottom of the stairs changed. Just from this series of familiar voices, Ren knew what the sound represented. It was a female locust! The upside-down female locator who kept wandering on the second floor
The tiger is coming! When they heard the sound, how could the four of them dare to hesitate? They climbed up the stairs again and hid at the corner of the stairs connecting the second floor to the third floor.
In the dark corridor, everyone was squatting silently at the corner. Unfortunately, after a long time, the series of permeating knocks were still lingering nearby, with no intention of leaving. Seeing this, they knew that the female scorpion could not enter the stairs, but everyone did not.
Ye Wei, who was also unable to go down, couldn't help but frowned and whispered: "The only way to the downstairs has been blocked by a female locust. It seems that we can't go down..."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ying's face became even more ugly.
(He Fei, you, don’t let anything happen to you!)
………
Time, 4:26 am, basement of the castle.
Snap!
The flashlight and the hammer in his hand both fell to the ground.
"Cough! Cough cough...wu..."
Unexpectedly, the Black Shadow Man finally caught Xu Hui, and caught Xu Min at the last moment when she was about to escape!
What does this feel like? Falling from heaven to hell in an instant is not an exaggeration.
At this moment, Xu Min was caught like a little chicken, pinched by the neck and held high in the air by the tall black shadow mango. Despair enveloped the woman's body in an instant, and the severe pain in her neck made her extremely painful.
, she couldn't make a sound, she could only whine and struggle violently, but unfortunately, her struggle was a joke in front of the black shadow worm. No matter how hard she tried to break the big hand, the black shadow worm pinched it.
The hand on her neck remained as motionless as a vise...
Inadvertently, with the help of the flashlight on the ground, Xu Min saw clearly the face of the black shadow hawk...that hideous hawk's face that was covered with black carrion under the light!
Da da da…
The only surprising thing was that after catching Xu Min, the Black Shadow Man did not kill her on the spot. Instead, he grabbed the woman by the neck and dragged her back, not far away to a blood-colored wooden table that was previously used for dismembering corpses.
Plop!
Walking to the table, he first threw Xu Min on the table hard. Before the thrown woman could cry out in pain, the next moment, the black shadow man had put his hands on Xu Min's calves.
, then, hold it hard!
Cluck, cluck!
There was a sound of bones breaking.
Then...
"Ahhhh!!!"
It was a scream, a cry of pain. For a moment, Xu Min, who was about to get up, fell down again. Stimulated by the severe pain, the woman let out a series of heart-rending screams. Her leg bones were broken, and she became a completely useless creature.
After slaughtering the pigs and sheep, she lost her mobility, and she could no longer escape.
The woman was worse than dead, screaming in pain, but the black shadow man in front of the table was indifferent to Xu Min's screams. After breaking the living person's leg bone, he turned around and left. Not long after, Xu Min faintly heard it in the severe pain.
There was a little sound, a little noise, and directly ahead, in the darkness where one couldn't even see anything, there was a series of dragging sounds of iron tools.
Yes, that's because... the black shadow is currently dragging a hatchet and slowly walking towards Xu Min!
(Help! Who can save me? I don’t want to die, I want to escape, I want to escape!)
The woman wanted to run away, but with her legs broken, how could she move even half an inch?
Next, the black shadow man returned to the table and raised his hatchet towards the woman...
Boom!
Phew!
"Ooohhhh!!!"
Another heart-rending scream was heard, accompanied by a large amount of red liquid flying around. Looking at Xu Min, one of her left legs was actually chopped off alive!
"Ah...oooo...ahhhh..."
Xu Min was tortured to the extreme by the severe pain at this moment, and even his miserable screams began to change his voice and tremble. Unfortunately, the black shadow worm did not stop at all. Before the poor woman's screams ended, the hatchet stained with red liquid in the darkness
Then he was lifted high again...
Boom!
This time Xu Min's right arm was chopped off.
Phew!
A large amount of red liquid spurted out from the right shoulder followed by the left leg.
As for Xu Min, she was in so much pain that she couldn't make any sound. Yes, she was bleeding too much and had fallen into a semi-conscious and semi-trance state. It was only then that she finally understood...
The reason why this locust didn't kill her when it first caught her was because it wanted to cut her alive!
I have only heard of the idea of being quartered by five horses in books or movies, but who would have thought that Xu Min is actually suffering from this kind of cruel torture. Although she is dead, this way of death is really terrible.
It's too painful. Yes, now she no longer hopes that she can live, and there is only one thought left in her mind, that is, I hope this worm will stop torturing her and let her die quickly!
pity……
It's a pity that Xu Min's inner prayer was obviously not heard by the black shadow wolf in front of him. To say the least, it would be useless even if it was heard. All hawks are cruel and murderous. How could the hawk show mercy to a living person!?
Next, the black shadow man raised his hatchet towards the woman again, and this time the blade was aimed at... the woman's waist.
‘He’ actually wanted to cut Xu Min in half alive!!!
brush!
Accompanied by this ear-piercing roar, the hatchet was swung down by the black shadow slug!
only……
Snap!
At the critical moment, just as the whizzing hatchet in the hand of the black shadow mango was about to hit Xu Min's waist, a dazzling bright light instantly shone on the rotten face of the black shadow mango.
According to the photo, the black shadow mandarin paused for a moment, and the hatchet in his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air. Then, in the distance, in the direction of the iron gate, a human shout also echoed in this silent hall:
"Draft it! I'm here, if you have the guts, come and catch me!"
The bright light of the flashlight and the yelling came from the direction of the iron gate. The camera moved to the side of the iron gate, and a human suddenly appeared at the door of the iron gate, a human who was shouting curses at the black shadow mango.
As expected, when he discovered that there was still a living person in the distance, the Black Shadow Man immediately gave up on Xu Min and walked straight towards the living person at the door while holding a hatchet.
Da da da…
As for the living person currently at the door, it is not anyone else. It is He Fei, the college student who has just arrived in the basement! It is a coincidence that as soon as he arrived in the basement along the stairs not long ago, he was the first to listen before he could start to observe.
There was a scream from a woman. Hearing the sound, He Fei immediately concluded that the owner of the sound was most likely the woman named Xu Min among the newcomers. He was startled and started to run quickly, following the sound and ran to an iron door.
In front of him, the flashlight also shined in the direction of the scream.
Then, He Fei saw a horrifying scene:
Right in front of the hall, there was a black turtle holding a hatchet high and intending to kill Xu Min below!
Seeing that the poor woman was about to die, He Fei was so anxious that he didn't think too much. He pointed the flashlight directly at the creature's face and shouted at the same time to attract the creature's attention. Unexpectedly, it was exactly this move that he made.
But he also saved Xu Min from being cut in half at the critical moment.
Back to the topic, when he saw that the black shadow worm was indeed attracted to him and walked towards him, He Fei was so frightened at the door that his hair stood on end. He quickly turned around and fled towards the back, and did not forget to face him before running away.
In the distance, Xu Min, who was not sure whether he was dead or alive, shouted:
"There's half an hour left, hold on! I'll lure him away. The exit is right in front of the iron gate!"
After saying these words to the other party, the next moment, He Fei turned around and ran away without hesitation, running towards the connecting corridor behind him.
Ta-ta-ta!
Not long after He Fei escaped from the hall, the figure of the black shadow that followed him quickly disappeared into the dark corridor.
The scene moved to the hall. In the seriously injured state, Xu Min heard it. She heard the words He Fei left before leaving. Yes, she wanted to live, but she couldn't die, because once she died, her son would also die.
It completely cut off any hope of survival, so...so she couldn't die no matter what!
"I, I want... ahem... I want to live, Xiaofeng, mom will not die... mom must leave here alive, so Xiaofeng, don't be afraid..."
While mumbling, in a daze, Xu Min moved. Unexpectedly, she had lost an arm and a leg and even lost too much blood, but she actually climbed down from the table with amazing perseverance!
Then, she slowly moved forward with only one arm and one leg, dragging a long blood trail all over the ground and crawling towards the iron gate...
………
He Fei, who was currently running along the corridor, gradually discovered a problem, a detail that concerned him extremely, that is... the black shadow hawk chasing him from behind did not seem to move very fast, or in other words, this hawk was not moving very fast from the beginning to the end.
Walking instead of running.
(Huh? Is it possible that...this worm in the basement...doesn't have the ability to run?)
Somehow, thinking of this, He Fei's energy suddenly perked up, and he even tentatively slowed down a little.
As a result, the black shadow hopper from behind still chased in a walking state.
Seeing this, He Fei was not only calm in his heart, but also had some thoughts in his mind. The next moment, he first made a turn, and then led the black shadow behind him towards another corridor on the right.
He Fei actually led the wolf in a circle!
He was stalling for time, and his purpose was precisely to create time for Xu Min to escape from the basement!
The perseverance of a person between life and death is sometimes really amazing. After nearly ten minutes of slow crawling, Xu Min not only successfully climbed out of the hall, but even climbed along the corridor outside the hall to the first stairwell connecting the basement! Looked up
Seeing the exit in the middle of the stairs, she wanted to go up, but... now she was in the middle of the stairs, but she couldn't hold on any longer. Yes, her remaining strength had been completely exhausted. Finally, Xu Min stopped moving.
He just lay there in the middle of the stairs, completely motionless.
At the same time, when Xu Min was not sure whether he was alive or dead, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard from the corridor behind.
That's right, the person running along the corridor towards the exit was none other than He Fei, who had just led the black shadow worm in a big circle, and not far behind him was the same black shadow worm that had been chasing him!
Obviously, after feeling that the woman had almost escaped from the basement, He Fei himself planned to escape as soon as possible.
Ta-ta-ta.........
In a hurry, He Fei arrived at the exit and was about to run up, but he found Xu Min who didn't know whether he was alive or dead on the stairs. Seeing this, He Fei didn't dare to think too much. He first carried her on his back without hesitation, and then walked straight along.
The stairs lead to the first floor above.
Blah, blah, blah...
But who would have thought! Just as He Fei carried Xu Min on his back and got out of the basement hole and arrived on the first floor, a string of iron scraping sounds came directly into his ears. He followed the sound and looked to the left, and the young man's expression suddenly changed!
The hair on your head stands on end!
That's because...
I don't know if it was because he was unlucky or because he didn't read the almanac before going out. When he looked around, he saw the axe-headed man on the first floor dragging his ax aimlessly into the corridor more than ten meters away!
Of course, at the same time that He Fei saw the axe, how could the axe not see He Fei? Sure enough, the moment he saw the living person, the axe moved. The originally slow-moving 'he' accelerated instantly and headed towards He Fei's location.
Rushing in the direction!
Da da da da da!!!
He Feize's face inevitably changed. Not long ago, he was chased into a dog by an axe. He knew that he couldn't outrun this thing! What's more, he was carrying someone on his back now. When he saw the axe.com rushing towards him, he turned around.
Being at the connection between the first floor and the basement, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly carried Xu Min back to the basement as quickly as possible.
He Fei knew very well that every locust in this castle had its own range of activities, and the locusts on each floor would never cross the boundary to other floors. As expected, He Fei had just retreated to the basement. He was originally anxious
The charging axeid stopped pursuing it as if it had lost its target for an instant, and returned to its original aimless and slow walking state.
The crisis on the first floor was temporary. However, just as He Fei's feet touched the basement floor, not far away, the shadow ghost that originally turned back when it saw its prey coming upstairs turned around again and walked towards He Fei!
And the difference from last time is that if he could use the wide space and speed to escape the pursuit of the black shadow worm last time, then this time, the narrow corridor near the exit and the front passage were completely occupied by the black shadow worm.
Next, unless he immediately escapes to the first floor through the connection port behind him, he and Xu Min will be caught by the approaching black shadow in less than ten seconds!
But……
But if you choose to return to the first floor now, you will also be killed by the axe-weevil hanging around the connection port!
"Fuck!!!"
Upon seeing this, He Fei found out that he had won the jackpot. He was actually caught between two oysters, and was thus caught in a dilemma.
At this moment, He Fei felt a burst of despair, and cold sweat could not help but cover his forehead. He did not expect that after escaping for a long time, he would end up being attacked from both sides! If you go upstairs, you will be killed by the axe, and if you continue to stay in the basement, you will be killed by the shadow beetle.
Kill, what, what should I do!?
However, just as the black shadow mango was getting closer and He Fei was at a loss, suddenly, he remembered something.
(Since the stairs from the first floor to the second floor of the castle and the stairs from the second floor to the third floor are all safe areas, do the stairs from the first floor to the basement also have this effect?)
Thinking of this, He Fei gritted his teeth. Yes, he was going to gamble. Blocking the stairs connecting the basement to the first floor was still a safe way to survive. At the same time, he had to gamble. If he didn't gamble, he would be killed! The next moment, He Fei
It flew, and in a hurry, Xu Min, who was not sure whether he was alive or not, hurriedly backed up and jumped straight to the stairs, jumping to the middle of the stairs connecting the basement to the first floor.
After a while...
A miracle happened!
As soon as He Fei's feet stepped on the middle of the stairs, he saw the black figure behind him suddenly stagnated. He slowly turned around as if he had lost his target in an instant, and then headed in the opposite direction of He Fei.
He slowly left and disappeared into the darkness of the corridor.
Similarly, because He Fei was just standing in the middle of the stairs leading from the basement to the first floor, the axe-weevil that had been wandering on the first floor was still walking slowly above it as when it first lost its target, and it didn't take long before it was also dragging
The ax disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
Seeing this scene, He Fei felt a big stone fall in his heart.
Yes, although this basement staircase is very short, it is still effective!
So in the next ten minutes, He Fei stopped taking any action and just stayed there with Xu Min on his back until 5 o'clock in the morning!
Finally, a cold voice without any emotion suddenly appeared, echoing in He Fei's mind:
"The mission time limit has reached, and all surviving executors will be judged to have completed the mission. This mission is completed, and the teleportation function is activated!"
