Chapter 531: Undercurrent
It's a place that anyone in the underground city knows, and at the same time a place that no one values or even wants to come to.
This is the miscellaneous settlement of this underground city.
Because of the special nature of the underground city, a large number of people are needed here to carry out the daily maintenance of the city, food production, water management, house maintenance, protection and repair against underground dampness, and even the destruction of garbage.
Every day, there are as many as 50,000 people who specialize in this kind of work.
And these 50,000 people are still as small as possible, after all, one more person in this underground city will consume more, and underground crops without sunlight are difficult to grow, and food is very precious.
It is also a real slum in this underground city, because these miscellaneous servants were originally transported here as slaves, the first generation was miscellaneous labor, the second generation was still miscellaneous labor, and the status of slaves has never changed.
And Baku, on the other hand, is the big boss in this region.
At this point, I didn't expect that this timid and fearful of things and no strength at all would actually be a big boss with 50,000 people under his command.
Entering this miscellaneous living city, what Tianxian saw was full of dilapidation, there seemed to be no real houses at all, they were all simple shacks, everyone was unclothed, and they looked yellow and thin, and now at this time, most of the people here seemed to be working outside, but everyone who Tianxian saw was working, the men repaired the tents and carried the goods, and the women were almost all taking care of the children. Many women bare-chested and breast-bared, breastfeeding on the street, looking so nervous and busy......
Tian Xian and the four girls were disguised.
Tianxian is better, it is estimated that no one here recognizes Tianxian, but the appearance of the four girls is too outstanding, and their identities are immediately exposed when they stand there. Tianxian used a simple technique to flatten her three-dimensional bewitching face, and a bewitching girl immediately turned into a big cake face, putting on a cloak and bowing her head, not at all inconspicuous.
This scared Baku to death, he never thought in his life that someone could change his appearance just by touching and pinching his face, as for Tianxian's appearance not only changed greatly, but even his height changed, he didn't dare to ask at all. Even looking at the sky, I felt panicked.
"That's it...... Here it is. Baku was sweating, and as he walked, he whispered about the situation around him, and everyone immediately avoided him when they saw him, and no one could hear him whispering.
Although this place is in tatters, after all, there are 50,000 people living in it, and it is also divided into regions and levels, which is probably the difference between laborers and small foremen and big foremen. And Baku is the chief foreman here.
Tian Xian didn't speak, urging Baku to go quickly.
Baku just has to pick up the pace. However, at a turn, I couldn't help but ask: "I have already led the way, what I said earlier ......"
"Rest assured. The fourth girl interrupted him, "The fact that you killed the soldier will not be exposed, if you really want to track down that soldier, you will become a secret agent, and you will become the person who killed the secret agent." ”|
"Thanks. Thank you ......."
"Shut up and get out of here!" the four girls interrupted Baku again before he could call out his name.
Baku didn't dare to delay, and quickly advanced with Tian Xian and the four girls all the way, and after turning a few corners, he came to the edge of a large area of clearing where debris was piled up. On the other side of the clearing is the swarthy mountain wall, which is the edge of this underground city.
There were no people here, and Baku spoke reassuringly: "There is a mountain wall in front, and this underground is a cold water vein, and the rocks are very cold, and there are no people around, only a little debris." ”
Tianxian just nodded, and walked forward with the four girls, Baku hesitated on the side, saw that Tianxian glanced at himself, and quickly followed with a smile.
The terrain here is really complicated, obviously it is not a day or two to pile up debris, some things look like antiques, I don't know how long they have been piled up, and you can even occasionally see people's dry bones......
"Brother Tianxiao?" The fourth girl felt that Tianxian seemed to be a little silent.
"It's fine. Tian Xian patted her little hand, "Follow me, there are a lot of things stumbling in this place." ”
"Hmm. ”
Soon Tianxian came to the front of the mountain wall, and the mountain wall below was almost blocked by all kinds of debris and garbage, and it was seen that many places were even deliberately piled up items, and Tianxian also really felt that this place was indeed much colder than other places, the cold water veins underground would swell up the cold air, and the ground was guarded by a huge energy array, but the surrounding rock walls were cold.
After taking out a map and comparing it carefully, Tian Xian made sure that his position was not bad, and then he turned around and asked, "Is there anything else closer to the rock wall?"
"No, this is the most recent one, because it was only in the past few years that I started to store sundries. Baku hastened to answer.
Tian Xian's hand is the topographic map provided by Baku to the Holy Spirit Temple, from which it can be clearly seen that the terrain provided by Baku is basically this miscellaneous living area, and the terrain in other places is pitiful.
This is the only area where the terrain is depicted with rock walls.
In the past two years, the Holy Spirit Temple has a good understanding of the topography of this area, and it is such a place that no one pays attention to, or even knows, so if you have a little brain, it seems that it is natural to pay attention to this place.
I have to admit that Baku's secret agent is too successful, his character and identity are just right, he was forced to betray when no one thought he would betray, and when no one thought he could make any waves, he had important clues that no one paid attention to.
The strongest fortresses are indeed cracked in the slightest place, and may eventually collapse.
Tian Xian pulled out the Great Sword of the Wasteland, swept away the surrounding debris in three or two strokes, and plunged the sword into the bare mountain wall, and the reverse heart trick spurred up, and penetrated into the rock with the power of the spiritual fluctuation precept.
This inspection was much smoother than Tian Xian expected, because the rock was full of the cold air of the underground water veins, and the power of the silver water spirit was also transmitted very quickly in it.
The power of the Great Sword of Desolate Dust over the earth quickly searched the situation within the rock wall, and the cold aura of the silver water spirit was the icing on the cake, making the exploration faster and farther.
Five minutes passed. There was nothing to be found, and it was surrounded by hard, thick rocks, and there were no gaps at all, let alone passages.
In the past five minutes, the distance of exploration has exceeded 100 meters, and Tian Xian feels that the situation ahead is very vague. If you further urge the power of the Great Sword of the Desolate Dust, then I am afraid that the rock will crack, and the sound will inevitably alarm others.
If you can find a clue, it is a shortcut to get out, Tian Xian mustered up his courage, and violently shook against his heart, and instantly entered a state of rage, and a layer of golden light rose up in his whole mind, and a layer of fine light also emerged from the Great Sword of Wasteland. The area explored suddenly moved forward again.
This time it advanced to about one hundred and fifty meters, but still no clues were found.
Tian Xian was a little frustrated, maybe the Holy Spirit Temple didn't act, maybe he didn't explore enough depth, but the result was nothing.
Just when Tianxian was about to give up, he was suddenly slightly stunned.
Baku is gone.
This guy actually took advantage of his concentration to explore, and saw that the fourth girl was paying attention to him, and his eyes couldn't see his space, and sneaked away!
If this guy slips away. Now you can go to the Blood Sect to beat a rake, and say that Tian Xian is a secret agent of the Holy Spirit Temple. That big bag of gold coins is still in Tianxian pocket.
He bet he would do it, and he even slipped away because of the plan!
This damn bastard!
Tianxian scolded secretly, and his heart was annoyed.
However, how can it be so easy to let him slip away?
Pull out the Yellow Dust Sword and thrust it into the rock under your feet.
"Boom!" the Great Sword of Desolate Dust poked into the rock wall, and a layer of essence light spread rapidly along the light wave of the sword body.
In this area where there are no people at all. It's easy to find a speeding footstep with the Wastedust Greatsword.
After the first exploration, Tian Xian determined that this guy in Baku was fleeing quickly more than thirty meters away from him.
With a roar of rage, the Great Sword of the Wasteland rose from the ground, stabbing with all his strength in that direction, and a heroic light broke through the air. I heard a scream in the distance, followed by the sound of my body falling heavily to the ground.
Putting the Wasteland Sword behind his back, Tianxian helped the four girls to walk forward slowly, only to take a few steps, and a light flashed back in mid-air, disappearing into the Wasteland Sword.
Tian Xian looked at the small hole that had been penetrated in the mountain of debris in front of him, and he was still very satisfied with the power of the fleeting shadow, that is, it was better that Baku did not die because of this.
When Tianxian helped the four girls to the place where Baku fell, the guy crawled forward with a frightened face, and a bloody hole was opened in his thigh, and he was still bleeding.
"If you don't want to die, you'd better stop, or you'll bleed to death. Tianxian stood in front of him.
Baku looked at Tianxian with desperate eyes, this time he didn't say anything about his wife and son, he didn't even cry, he was completely desperate......
However, what made Tianxian a little concerned was that this guy actually had deep sadness on his face at this time, and he seemed to be a little reluctant......
Tian Xian has seen the expressions of those who are dying many times, in the dirty small room, on the neat operating table, when people know that they will die, their expressions will be very strange, beyond age, beyond the world, and even beyond the laws of nature, revealing an expression that is closest to the soul......
This kind of dazed sorrow and reluctance, Tian Xian is sure that he is full of guilt and pain, he should indeed have a family, and he does not want to die.
"Do you want to die?" Tian Xian looked at him condescendingly.
Baku's expression was blank, and he was sure that Tianxian would not let him go......
"If you don't want to die, I can reunite you with your family and get out of the blood alliance. Tian Xian clicked it twice, and a ray of light jumped back and forth on Tian Xian's fingertips and Baku's thigh twice, and the wound on Baku's leg visibly stopped the bleeding.
Baku seemed to be electrocuted, and looked at Tianxian in a daze for a second, and then howled like a beast, turned over violently, and jumped up and hugged Tianxian's feet regardless of Qiqi, "I...... I don't want to die!!"
Timid as a mouse, his strength is not good, but I have to admit that he is still a little clever.
"Listen to me, I'll give you this chance. ”
Baku raised his head, his eyes were already bloodshot, "I swear! I swear to all the gods!!As long as you let you out of here!As long as you don't kill me!I'll do anything!I'll do anything!!"
"That's good!" Tian Xian nodded, "then...... Let go of my feet first. ”
Baku let go of the sky, quickly stepped back like a gecko on the ground, and knelt on the ground, his eyes full of hope and begging, "I'll do everything!
"Go and bandage the wound first, then go and stay aside, I'll make up a reason for you, give you a credit. ”
Baku was a little unsure of what Tian Xian meant, the escape just now was already a complete betrayal, but the other party ...... He didn't seem to be angry, and tried to move, but when he didn't react, Baku nodded, leaned against the abandoned stake on the side, and quickly tore off the corner of his clothes to bandage the wound.
Tian Xian could see at a glance that Baku's injuries did not hurt the bones and important meridians, although there was a lot of bleeding, as long as the bleeding stopped, it was not in the way.
At the moment, he was left alone here to wrap his wounds, and he took the four girls back to the rock wall just now.
"Brother Tian, do you still want to investigate?" Although the fourth girl can't see, she still has a lot of perception of things around her.
Tian Xian smiled slightly, "I was going to give up, but Baku gave me a hint." ”
"Oh?" the four girls looked puzzled.
Tianxian gathered his strength again, and the Great Sword of Desolate Dust suddenly plunged into the rock wall, and a layer of light burst up and blasted into the rock wall.
"We've got a fleeting shadow!!"
The light on the Great Sword of the Desolate Dust disappeared in a flash, and in an instant, it was restored to the same as before, and the shadow came and went, and an extremely long thin hole was opened in the rock wall in an instant.
The power fluctuations of the Desolate Dust Great Sword and the Silver Water Spirit were transmitted in, filling this small void and radiating in all directions, and in an instant, it seemed that the Desolate Dust Great Sword had elongated dozens of times, and the detection range had skyrocketed.
"There you have!!" Tian Xian couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
At a distance of less than three hundred meters in front of the left, a huge hole appeared in the reverberation of energy fluctuations, and this hole was very regular, the ground was extremely flat, and it was obviously dug by hand!
If it weren't for the work of the Holy Spirit Temple, it would be hell!
Under careful investigation, Tianxian was extremely excited, this huge passage that was enough for ten people to pass side by side, there was no one guarding this side!
It's like God is opening a back door for himself!
Hehe laughed, pulled out the Desert Dust Sword, and walked away with the four girls in his arms, "Let's prepare!
This one...... Yesterday I was supposed to rest and watch the parade, but it seems that the small note of leave was not sent...... (To be continued......)
