Chapter 106: Entering the Jedi
Xiaoyuer laughed and knocked with her hands: "Hey, is this the door? Is anyone at home?" Unexpectedly, after a slap, she actually slapped the bark open, revealing a hole in the door.
"It's really a door." Xiao Yu'er was also startled. He was just trying to make a joke, but he didn't expect that the bark was really a door!
He quickly jumped back and retreated, and did not forget to pull Chu Zheng, which made Chu Zheng feel a little fond of him.
After waiting for a while, no one came out after the door opened. Xiaoyuer bravely approached him, shouted a few times, and threw two stones in, without any response.
The little fish simply pushed open the entire bark door, and saw that it was empty inside, as if it was just an ordinary big tree hole.
But how could a big tree hole make a door by itself?
"Go in and take a look." Xiaoyuer stepped in, but this time he still pulled Chu Zheng, which made Chu Zheng laugh and cry. However, he already knew that he had been completely trapped in the adventure incident. Since he could not get rid of it, he could only work harder to get the benefits from it.
The young woman looked nervous and scared, and followed behind.
The three of them walked in and found that nearly half of the hollowed out in the middle of the tree, which was just enough for the three of them to stand. There were hundreds of iron branches as thick as thumbs around the tree hole, making the entire tree hole look like a fine iron cage.
The little fish looked left and right curiously, and suddenly an iron gate fell down, sealing the hole of the tree, and then the entire iron cage slowly descended, and the surroundings immediately fell into darkness.
"Hey! What's going on?" The calm young woman was extremely panicked and hugged Xiao Yu'er's arm tightly.
Chu Zheng also pretended to be full of fear and exclaimed, but he was a little curious.
Isn't this just a lift? There is such developed technology in the game? However, judging from the not very uniform speed, it is more likely that the man can pull the mechanism by hand, and it should not be real mechanical control.
After a while, the iron cage finally stopped. The door of the iron cage opened again, revealing a pale yellow light.
"It's useless to stay here. Since the owner here invites us out, let's go and have a look." Xiaoyuer pulled Chu Zheng and rushed out first. Chu Zheng had no choice but to wake up his spirits and follow him. Compared to the young woman who couldn't guess, he was more inclined to stay with this young man who had no malicious intentions towards him.
There was a long passage outside, with exquisitely carved stone walls and lit copper oil lamps embedded.
There is a lamp that means there is a trace, but the passage is extremely quiet, and there is no other person except the two of them. Chu Zheng understood in his heart that the traces of people moving in the valley should be left by people living in this underground building.
"It seems that you're right, there must be someone living here." Xiao Yu'er bit the grass beside her mouth and turned to the young woman, "Hey, you can come out."
But as soon as he finished speaking, the door of the iron cage suddenly closed and then fell down again. The young woman exclaimed, and in a moment she descended with the cage and disappeared.
The little fish was shocked and quickly turned back, but thick iron plates had appeared at the location of the cage, and there was no way to see where the iron cage had fallen.
"Ah! Fire... Fire! So hot, help-!" The young woman's shrill cry came from the ground. The little fish was anxious and repeatedly smashed her fist on the iron plate, but how could her fist hit the iron plate?
Only the young woman's screams of pain and help were getting weaker and weaker. Finally, there was no sound again. It seemed that she was burned to death.
The little fisher was furious and ran back to the passage and shouted, "I don't care who you are, but don't want to scare me! I will find you sooner or later and kill you!"
Chu Zheng had long been "scared" and stood close to the stone wall without moving, but in fact he was watching coldly. He didn't care about the young woman's life and death. However, seeing the young man was so indignant, he looked at him a little more.
At his age, he is extremely smart but has not lost his kindness and humanity, but is better than himself.
And what made Chu Zheng look at him the most was that Xiao Yuer shouted recklessly, but in fact she wanted to use aggressive techniques to lure the enemy out and change the relationship between light and dark.
Obviously, Xiao Yuer also thought that since the mastermind behind the scenes waited until they left the iron cage before taking action, he was afraid that he would have other plans and would not harm their lives for the time being.
Chu Zheng couldn't help but nodded secretly. The boy, who was at least sixteen or seventeen years old in front of him, thought of these things in an instant and immediately took countermeasures. This quick mind was not under his battle-hardened old world, which was really amazing.
Chu Zheng was thinking while being pulled to the other end of the passage by the little fish.
Xiaoyuer shouted angrily, but did not hear anyone's response. She ran to the end of the passage and saw an exquisite white jade door. He pushed it hard and walked in first.
There was a huge hall in front of me, built magnificently, but unfortunately there were no windows and no one.
In the middle is a large table with a fragrant roast chicken.
"Brother Chu, look at the owner here, he only knows how to pretend to be a ghost, but he dares not show up. Obviously, he has money if he has money, but unfortunately he is a coward." Xiao Yuer sneered.
Suddenly, a voice echoed in the hall: "Jiang Xiaoyu, you are brave." The sound is ethereal and difficult to distinguish between men and women.
Xiaoyuer was shocked and looked around, but he didn't see the source of the sound. Only Chu Zheng had extraordinary eyesight and saw dozens of evenly distributed small holes on the top of the hall, and the sound came from there.
"Who are you? Why do you know my name?"
The ethereal voice said slowly: "The master here knows everything."
Chu Zheng rolled his eyes and immediately grabbed Xiaoyuer in horror: "Little Yuer, who is talking?"
"Boy named Chu, don't look around. You can't see me, but I can see you."
Chu Zheng was anxious and thoughts. Didn’t this person call his full name like Xiaoyuer?
"Pretending to be a ghost, I have the courage to come out to meet!" Xiao Yuer shouted.
The man laughed: "You are brave. There is a roast chicken on the table, which is highly toxic. Do you dare to eat it?"
"Why don't you dare?" Xiao Yuer picked it up and ate it, and even gave it to Chu Zheng: "Eat it, it's not poisonous. If he wants to kill us, he can burn us directly in an iron cage just now. And even if it's poisonous, being a full devil is better than being a starving devil."
Chu Zheng "obediently" chewed the chicken legs, and there was a wine pot and two cups on the table. Xiaoyuer simply poured two glasses of wine and ate and drank with Chu Zheng.
Just as the two of them were full of wine, the man's voice came slowly: "Do you really think these wines and dishes are not poisonous?"
Xiaoyuer said, "Of course, why do you do this too much?"
"What a pity, I like to do this." The man laughed.
Xiaoyuer snorted and was about to speak when she suddenly became dark and fainted.
An old man like Chu Zheng had actually tried the poisonous food in the wine and food, but he was not poisonous and wanted to see what tricks the owner was playing here. At this time, he saw Xiao Yuer's face turned slightly dark, her eyes turned pale and then fell down. He should have been a type of drug with paralysis effect, so he pretended to have the same symptoms and then fell down.
