Adventure Code

Chapter 446 Escape (8)

Dodging behind the hole, I raised my gun to pay attention to the movements of the Taoist priest, while observing the situation behind the hole.

Different from the stone room next to it, the space behind this hole is very neatly built. There are sharp lines at the joints near the wall, and the floor is covered with floor tiles. The material is similar to that of the rocks around the 'stone room'. I guess this should be some kind of cement-like substance made by the ancients, but it is not as strong as cement.

At this moment, I hold the telescopic stick in one hand to illuminate, observe the surrounding environment, raise the gun in the other hand, and keep an eye out for the movements of the Taoist priest. It looked like there would be too much threat, so I relaxed my surveillance of him a little bit, and focused most of my attention on the space behind the hole.

A large amount of gauze is stuffed into the mouth of the telescopic tube, which is full of lamp oil. When lit, it looks like a super-large lighter. The flame emits light steadily, revealing the situation behind this space.

Behind this is a large and well-built stone room. There are also many storage compartments on both sides of the stone room, but they are much larger than the storage compartments in the alchemy room above. It seems that this place is used to place some large objects.

On the ground about ten steps away, there were many strange-shaped things. Among these things, I only recognized three of them. Small knives, this thing is called a scalpel, it looks like a scalpel, but it is not as fine as a modern scalpel. It was used to treat some special medicines in ancient times, such as beef tendon and tiger bone.

These three objects that I can recognize are all used for processing medicinal materials, and the other ones that I can't recognize should have similar functions.

The special fuel for Green Flame is placed in the stone room, and behind the stone room is the place where the equipment is placed. Following the rotating stone steps in the stone room, you can reach the living room and the alchemy room.

Such a design is reasonable, but it is quite unreasonable to separate the stone chamber from this place with a material similar to cement.

Why is it designed this way?
I walked forward, looking back at the Taoist priest from time to time. He was also observing me, but he was still squatting beside the green flame. The distance between us gradually widened as I moved forward.

There is an open corridor on the opposite side of the space, and a dark wind blows in from the back of the corridor. I was blown by the dark wind, and the doubts in my mind were blown away a lot.

No matter why, let's go out first.

Just when I raised my foot and was about to walk towards the entrance of the passage, I caught a glimpse from the corner of my eye. On the ground not far from my right, there was a shiny golden object. The flash was really dazzling. Looking at the telescopic tube carefully, I was surprised.

It's a short-handled hammer with a round end and a pointed end. It should be used to hammer some more flexible medicinal materials. The reason why it shines golden is because this thing is made of gold!

Although I am not very short of money now, who would think too much of money?When I suddenly saw such a piece of gold bump, my heart was washed, and I immediately picked it up, intending to put it in the equipment bag.

However, I picked up the golden hammer and turned it over, and saw that the other side of the hammer was covered with a lot of black dry matter.I froze for a moment, put it in front of my eyes to identify it carefully, and picked it up with my hand, and dunked pieces of dark black powder.

is blood.

Dried blood.

The blood was on the side of the pointed hammer. At this moment, I made up a scene in my mind.

Someone once held this pointed hammer and hammered something bloody. It may be a living medicinal material waiting to be processed, of course, it may be something else.

Lifting the telescopic tube up a part, the range of light exposure is wider, but the illumination of the light becomes a little darker.

Looking in the dim light, not far from where the golden hammer fell before, there was a drop of dried blood, which continued to spread into the darkness.

My heart skipped a beat, and I looked at the Taoist priest not far away, and then at the bloodstains on the ground for many years, and felt that the Taoist priest had become a little more sinister.

Judging by the Taoist's intelligence and appearance, he should have lived here for some years. If he has lived here all this time, then what exactly is he doing here?Did he make the blood stains on the ground?I was not in a hurry to go to the entrance of the passage, curiosity prompted me to go forward along the blood.

The farther you go, the bigger the bloodstains will be. At the beginning, they are little by little, and then they are connected in a line. It can be imagined that the bleeding speed is very fast. The last pool of blood is about half a meter in diameter, and it is an irregular circle. shape.

And beside the pool of blood, there was actually a green cloth bag with a red five-pointed star on it.When I saw this cloth bag, I was stunned. Isn't this the kind of cloth bag that was popular in the past five and 60s?How did it appear here?

For a moment, Taoist Qingfeng came to my mind.

Had he been here before and left things behind?
Apart from this reason, there seems to be no other possibility.

Just when I was in doubt and bent down to pick up the green cloth bag, there was a sudden impact force from behind, which pushed me down to the ground, and my face just stuck to the green cloth bag.

"My... my... my..." A broken voice, as if the throat was leaking, sounded from the top of my head, and I felt that I was being suppressed by a person, and this person was very powerful, so fucking taller than me.

Although I didn't look back to see who it was, I didn't need to guess who it was because of the stench from not bathing all the year round and this throat.

How could this Taoist priest, like a cat, pounce on him without making a sound?Just now he was attracted by the blood stains, and just relaxed, this Taoist priest found an opportunity to take advantage of him.

I felt remorse in my heart, but my body didn't move. From the moment the Taoist priest held me down, I followed suit to resist, but I didn't expect that the other party's strength was infinite, similar to that of the feather corpse, making me powerless to fight back.

You can't beat it with strength, you can only outsmart it.

I breathed slowly and turned my head slightly to see the Taoist's reaction.He stretched out one hand, pinched the green cloth bag in his hand, and kept chanting those two words intermittently: "My...of...my...of..."

mine?

My heart skipped a beat, and I said to myself: In all likelihood, this thing should belong to Taoist Qingfeng, right?How did he say it was his?Could it be...he is Qingfeng Taoist priest?This idea flashed through my mind, and before I could react, the Taoist priest's pressure on me began to relax.

He didn't seem to have any killing intent, and all his attention was on the bag.
