In a small, dark, damp, musty room, there were eight bunk beds with iron frames covered with wooden boards.
The heavy iron door was tightly closed and there were no windows. Thirteen people lived in the entire room, but there was only a twenty centimeter-long ventilation hole on the ceiling.
The smell of sweat, foot odor and unknown odor mixed into a sour and strange smell that made people almost nauseous.
Seven of the eight bunk beds are arranged on both sides, and only one bunk bed is placed very unevenly on the middle aisle, which looks abrupt and out of place.
What's even more different is that the other seven bunk beds are basically very dirty, with shabby clothes, quilts, and socks piled randomly on the bed. Only that bed is very tidy. Although the clothes and quilts are also very old, they have been tidied up.
Very clean and tidy.
Most of the sundries were piled up on the lower bunk, and there was a quilt folded into tofu blocks on the upper bunk, with a person sitting next to it.
A woman who looks to be in her early twenties, and if she didn't have the scar running diagonally across her entire cheek, she might be described as beautiful.
Now, if I had to use one word to describe her appearance, fierce might be more suitable.
There are more than a dozen people in the room, but there is only one woman. She can occupy a bunk bed by herself. This is obviously not because of the principle of ladies first. In fact, there are no such gentlemen in this kind of place.
The woman's name was Bandit, a bandit's bandit. No one in this room knew her surname, and no one dared to ask her.
Because she is the boss in this house.
At this time, the bandit was looking at a man, a man who had just appeared in the room today.
Before today, there were only seven people left in this room, and today six more young and strong men were sent.
This kind of thing has happened countless times before. The bandit has long been accustomed to it and even regards it as a kind of fun. After all, in a place like this, there are not many things to do for entertainment. It is admirable to appreciate the fear, confusion and ignorance of those rookies.
The confused expression is also one of the rare pleasures, or a kind of spiritual comfort that can make people feel that they are still alive.
The bandit used to have some interest, but now he has become numb and has no mood to do such boring things anymore.
In the past three years here, Ajie has seen all kinds of new people, but this is the first time she has seen a new person like this man.
Most of the people who can be sent here have no choice but to come here voluntarily. After all, the reincarnation rate here is as high as 20%, and on average two out of ten people die every week.
Who the hell would come to a place like this? It would be nice if he didn't go crazy. No one is in the mood to giggle happily there.
But that young man has always had a smile on his face since he came to this room.
Although that smile could not be said to be charming, it looked extremely sunny in such a ghost place, and even made people feel a little dazzling.
"New guy, what's your name?" The bandit seemed to find that smile a little uncomfortable, so he narrowed his eyes and asked the young man.
"What are you doing standing still? What is the gangster asking you?" The strong man in underpants on the bed next to him yelled at the young man.
"Me? My name is Li Xiu." The young man then realized that the bandit was asking him, and answered with a smile, showing two rows of very white and beautiful teeth.
"What did you do to get here?" The bandit frowned. She was not used to the young man's smile.
"I didn't commit anything." Li Xiu replied, shaking his head.
"How could you come here if you didn't commit any crime?" The bandit didn't believe what Li Xiu said at all. How could he be sent to such a ghost place if he didn't commit any crime.
"Because someone told me that this is a man's paradise, so I came here." Li Xiu answered seriously.
Ha ha!
Suddenly there was a roar of laughter, and those "seniors" were laughing so hard that they almost died from laughter.
"Yes, yes, this is indeed a man's paradise. Once you come here, you will be able to go to heaven soon." The strong man who had yelled at Li Xiu laughed and said.
The bandit stared at Li Xiu and looked at her. She didn't know whether Li Xiu was really naive or pretending to be stupid. No matter which one it was, it was useless in a place like this. Whether he could survive or not, he could only rely on his own strength and strength.
luck.
Decades ago, a strange creature suddenly appeared on the earth and almost destroyed human civilization.
It wasn't until a weapon called "Magic Equipment" was created that mankind had a chance to breathe.
Along with those creatures that humans call "demon spirits", there are also many strange gates, and the demon spirits seem to come from inside the gates.
Those ancient, weird, and mysterious doors are scattered all over the world. Human beings have used various weapons to open the doors and explore the secrets inside.
As a result, even the previous weapons were unable to damage it at all, and even magic equipment was unable to cause damage to it.
There is only one way to open the door, but this method is very luxurious. Natural gems must be used to inlay on the mysterious door, so that the door can open automatically. And only human flesh and blood can enter the door. There is no way.
Carrying foreign objects.
Humanity's exploration of the mysterious door truly begins at that moment.
I don't know how many human beings died inside the mysterious gate, only to make some discoveries that could subvert human's three views.
There are different scenes within the gates that have been explored. Some of those scenes are within the scope of human understanding, and some are beyond human understanding.
Although the scenes inside the known and searched gates so far are different, they all have one thing in common.
The mysterious gates are like special examination rooms. Human beings who enter must undergo various trials.
Only humans who have reached the passing level can come out of it alive.
The so-called examination is not an examination as understood by normal human concepts. You will not get a diploma if you pass the examination. The benefits obtained are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Humanity has never stopped researching the mysterious gate, and countless humans have died inside the mysterious gate.
This underground base called "The Abyss" is built next to a mysterious underground gate. People like Bandit are basically members of the death squad. They risk death every time they enter the mysterious gate to explore.
risk.
Most of these people are death row prisoners, owe huge debts, or have some kind of difficulties that they have to come to.
There are probably very few people like Li Xiu who come here voluntarily. Even if Li Xiu said it himself, not many people would believe it.
Buzz!
The piercing siren sounded, and the expressions of the gangster and the other elderly people suddenly became ugly.
"Grandma, what's going on? The Devil's Gate should be opened in three days, why now..." The strong man looked a little flustered and looked at the bandit.
Before the bandit could say anything, the iron door in the house cracked with a crack, and then slowly opened automatically.
