Zhang Yu's eyes widened as he watched the masked man put out the cigarette butt and put it into his pocket.
I really didn’t know how I felt at the moment.
No, is it necessary to be so cautious? My dear, you didn’t leave me any chance at all.
I was complaining in my heart, but I happened to meet a pair of eyes hidden behind the mask for a moment.
This provocative look seemed familiar no matter how I looked at it.
Then, Zhang Yu laughed at himself, put out his cigarette butt, and leaned against the wall to close his eyes and meditate.
Whether it was the giant snake, the groups of corpses, or the pits and valleys full of bones, as well as the miraculously complex and large-scale underground ruins they were in, not to mention the unscientific group of corpses before.
Whether it's the threat to their survival from giant snakes and other creatures, or the shock brought by weird scenes.
Everything that happened in just half a day had a huge impact on human outlook.
Therefore, except for a few people, everyone else was actually in a state of confusion and surprise.
Veteran detectives like Zhang Yu, who have seen life and death, feel very exhausted.
Fortunately, there is a mysterious masked man. This savior kills zombies like chopping melons and vegetables. He not only dares to confront the giant snake alone, but can also make the zombies retreat.
His presence allowed these people to regain their confidence in living and avoid immediate mental breakdown.
Now, after resting and relaxing with that cigarette, everyone's tense nerves were relieved.
Gradually, the chatter in the team began to increase.
It is worth mentioning that when they first smoked, they were already exposed to the underground air.
However, the initial test showed that the air quality here was acceptable. If it were not for the regulations, none of them would be willing to wear this. After all, it would be uncomfortable to have so many things on their faces.
So, they first took off the gas mask while smoking. There was no smell or accident, but thinking about it, they probably wouldn't care about it at this time.
Later, even Professor Chen and his assistant Xiao Li took them off.
"Teacher, you said earlier that this is not an ancient tomb. Could it be that it is an altar like the one in Dongshan?" Xiao Li asked in a low voice while putting the gas mask into his backpack.
"Yes, the place where the giant snake appeared before was clearly the place where the blood sacrifices of the ancestors were made. However, what was discovered in Dongshan was..." Professor Chen's words did stop abruptly here. He glanced at the students and sighed: "
The two places were built in the same era, and the same creatures appeared, so they must be related. On such a large scale, and underground, the ancients must have spent a huge price to build these. There must be a need to do this.
Reason. If we continue to study, I am afraid that a shocking secret will be revealed."
Xiao Li seemed to know a lot of inside information. He turned to look at the rest of the people who were resting and lowered his voice: "Teacher, do you think any of the powerful countries in the Spring and Autumn Period would have an altar like this?"
?And these two underground ruins were all exposed by Mei Qian’s novel, does he know more?”
At this time, Professor Chen seemed to have no intention of talking. He just shook his head at the students, then took out a notebook from his arms, writing and drawing on it, and occasionally staring at the contents, lost in thought...

"Captain Ren, you can go out now. You can deal with whatever you have to do, but you can't go home for the time being."
"I understand, I'm sorry to bother you." Ran Ran walked out of the room with a smile, but as soon as the door closed, the smile on his face could no longer be maintained.
Taking out a tissue and wiping the fine sweat on his face, he sighed helplessly and walked towards his office.
This was the first round of questioning, and a veteran like him couldn't stand it.
As a criminal police officer, he would rather face a group of vicious criminals than deal with internal scrutiny.
There is a popular joke among them: "The most ruthless thing is to do it yourself."
For front-line police officers, especially criminal police officers who often face suspects, many people are afraid of meeting such colleagues. To be more serious, those rules and regulations will make you nervous.
After all, if you understand something, others will certainly understand it, but if others understand it, you may not understand it.
At this moment, Ran Yi could only be glad that he was a new transfer and had not participated much in the matter of the Xiadu Tomb, otherwise...
I feel some sympathy for Qin Sen who just came back. This guy is waiting to suffer!
After he returned to the office, all the previous negative emotions were suppressed. He couldn't bring his personal emotions into work, right?
However, when he opened his phone and looked at the series of missed calls, he couldn't help but feel the anger in his heart.
After a while, he dialed back: "Hello? What's wrong with Yingjun?"
"Captain, Mei Qian is lost." A hoarse voice came from the microphone: "We stopped the commercial vehicle, and Mei Qian is not in the car."
"Not there?" Yi Yi couldn't help but raise his voice, but then lowered his voice and asked in a calm tone as much as possible: "What did his assistant say?"
"The other party said that Mei Qian was in a bad mood and went out to relax. But we did not see Mei Qian in the surveillance of the community and nearby streets."
Randomly frowned: "Where is Group 4? They are upstairs at Mei Qian's house. Can you knock on the door to confirm?"
"Surveillance surveillance shows that he and his assistant took the elevator to the underground parking lot together, and uu Reading www.uukanshu.com also got into the car. Moreover, the vehicle did not stop at all on the way. We still don't know how Mei Qian got out of the car."
After hanging up the phone, he glanced at the pouring rain outside the window. He couldn't help but feel irritated and muttered: "It's strange, it's raining so hard. Where can a seriously injured person go?"
-----------------------
Underground in Xia Capital.
Everyone rested for more than half an hour. When Mei Qian saw that their mental state had improved a lot, he put the knife rest back on his back without saying a word.
He was in a hurry and couldn't afford to delay.
Zhang Yu, who had his eyes closed, woke up immediately and quickly stood up.
And when he makes a move, the others will naturally do the same.
Although I don't know the true purpose of the masked man, I can guess that he has no ill intentions and is probably here to save me.
They cooperated quite well. Professor Chen and Lao Zhao, who were as old as Professor Chen, gritted their teeth and kept up without saying a word, even though they still felt very tired.
You've managed to survive with your whole family, but you don't want to leave this hellish place as soon as possible to reunite with your relatives?
Therefore, everyone moved quickly, and because of the threat of the giant snake, they didn't know whether this terrifying creature would appear again, so their pace of movement began to speed up unconsciously.
This corridor was longer than what I had experienced before. It took me another ten minutes to reach the exit.
But this time, there is neither an altar nor a group of corpses ahead, only a huge underground lake with no boundaries visible...
