Hearing this, Chen Ziyan was slightly depressed. He knew what Black Glasses meant.
It is very unprofessional to have such a inconsistent state in such a place, so there are only a few answers, and the most likely one is that the other party is very confident.
I am confident that even if someone invades the underground research institute, the defensive force inside will be enough to resist. In other words, even if the invasion force is too strong, the defensive measures inside will be able to hold up until the arrival of support personnel. .
"Don't think too much, we are already here. Even if there is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den ahead, we still have to go in and break into it." Chen Ziyan thought for a while and said.
If he was fooled by this little trick, he might as well just retire and take care of himself. Those ancient tombs and tombs buried deep underground are not more dangerous than this.
After all, what they have to face now are just people, and at that time they were probably not people.
"Yes." Black Glasses also understood this and nodded lightly.
Nothing can be done if you are afraid of your hands and feet. No matter how much you think about it at this moment, it will be in vain.
When Chen Ziyan saw this, he stopped saying anything and stepped into the passage.
Whether their guess is correct or not, their time is very tight and there is no need to waste it on this unimportant matter.
Tap tap tap——
In the bright but deep passage, only the sound of footsteps echoed for a while, as if this place was a place of death. Not to mention the sight of people, nothing could be seen except the walls.
"Mr. Chen, have you noticed that there seems to be something wrong here." After walking for a while, Black Glasses suddenly said.
Chen Ziyan in front nodded lightly: "Yes, if I guessed correctly, this place should be built on the basis of an ancient tomb."
This is what he is talking about. Not long after entering the passage, I already realized that a simple transitional passage does not need to be so long, and generally longer passages must have unique meanings. Like this one, they are probably arranged with traps.
But they have come so far, but they haven't seen even the slightest trace of the trap mechanism, which means that the length of the passage has nothing to do with it.
So the answer is obvious. This should be due to the limitations of the terrain, rather than deliberate construction.
"Then the space down here must be much larger than the ground." Black Glasses said: "But we have to speed up, there may be other entrances and exits here."
He has entered There are many more ancient tombs than Chen Ziyan. Although he has not yet stepped into the official area of the underground research institute, the length of this passage is enough for Black Glasses to construct a rough outline of the underground space in his mind.
After all, many ancient tombs have templates that can be compared. Even if there are changes, they are still the same. Very few tombs will exceed the limitations of the existing templates.
"Yes, we have to speed up." Chen Ziyan responded softly, and the pace under his feet accelerated significantly.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something, that is, why the alarm did not sound after the secret door was broken open.
At that time, he also told Black Glasses that the alarm might have sounded elsewhere.
Looking at it now, it is not impossible. If an alarm sounded in the underground research institute after they broke open the secret door, it would be understandable that the secret door did not make any movement at all.
The people who originally designed and renovated this place were most likely going in the opposite direction, taking advantage of people's tendency to think wildly about unexpected situations, in order to gain more benefits for the people in the underground research institute. Much time.
As for what this time will be used for, it is not difficult to guess, either to activate the weapons in the underground research institute, or to transfer important information and supplies.
However, Chen Ziyan guessed that it was likely that the two would be done together.
This gave Chen Ziyan, who had always had a chance to win, a sense of urgency in his heart. He knew that if he could not succeed at this moment, he would most likely lose the opportunity forever, and even make his future development completely chaotic.
Losing the opportunity to get Zhang Qiling is nothing, this kind of loss is still within the scope that he can accept.
But if this causes changes in the future, that is not what Chen Ziyan wants to see.
You must know that his foresight is of great use, but this ability also has limitations, that is, it cannot be flexible.
Just like the location of this sanatorium, he knows this one. Judging from what he has guessed, if people in the institute are really allowed to move Zhang Qiling, let alone him, even if it is the original The plot successfully took away Zhang Qiling's Jie Jiuye, and I'm afraid it will be impossible for him to do it again.
Of course, Chen Ziyan couldn't do it because of information problems, and the reason why Jie Jiuye couldn't do it was more complicated. The most critical point was that he didn't have enough time left to play such a big game again.
People outside may still not know how the turmoil in the capital will be resolved, but Chen Ziyan knows very well that Jiumen will inevitably be hit hard this time, and as the person who planned all this Xie Jia is the first to bear the burden.
This is also the reason why in the original plot, both the old and middle generations of the Jie family died, leaving only a child named Jie Yuchen.
Although Xie Lianlian faked his death to escape, he had a plan, but the real reason was clear to Xie Jiuye, which was that as long as he 'lived' for one day, the Xie family and he would not be able to find true peace.
Chen Ziyan even felt that without the protection of Er Erhong, even Jie Yuchen would not be able to survive.
As someone who knows a little bit of the inside story, he knows better than anyone else that the Hong family, which is known as February Red, seems to have been declining without a successor, but that was decades later, and now the Hong family sees He may seem inconspicuous, but he is definitely one of the best among the Nine Sects.
At this moment, Chen Ziyan suddenly saw a different scene in front of him. He quickly restrained his divergent thinking and looked over.
It was a metal door that looked full of texture, but what was strange was that this door was completely different from the secret door at the entrance.
The secret door outside can be seen to be obviously modern, and the lock above is also the same, but the door in front of you is full of a sense of vicissitudes of ancient times, and the two pairs of door knockers in the center are actually two horns. A weird snake head with exposed teeth.
This is different from an ordinary door. Let alone the yang house, even the yin house has never seen anyone use snakes as door knockers.
When Chen Ziyan saw this strange door knocker, he felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
This situation attracted his attention. Chen Ziyan was very clear about his current memory. Although things that are too long ago will be blurred, he can easily recall them as long as he encounters them, even if they are useless. Such things can also be achieved if there is enough time to recall them.
But although the knocker on the metal door now gave him an indescribable sense of familiarity, it did not evoke his memory at all, it was just simply familiar.
"What, Mr. Chen, do you recognize this thing?" Black Glasses noticed Chen Ziyan's gaze and couldn't help but ask.
He also noticed the strange door knocker immediately. According to his experience, such unconventional things are very evil.
So after noticing Chen Ziyan looking at the door knocker, he immediately thought of this possibility.
“I don’t know.” Chen Ziyan shook his head gently: “I just think there’s something wrong with this thing.”
After finishing speaking, Chen Ziyan directly pressed his hand on the metal door, wanting to try Try to push the door open directly. Although he really wanted to study these strange door knockers, he didn't have time to do so now.
Creak——
With a heavy friction sound, the seemingly heavy metal door in front of him was pushed open by him.
Chen Ziyan withdrew his hand as soon as the door opened and stepped aside. After not seeing any movement inside, he looked at the black glasses.
The black glasses were also looking at him at this moment. After the two sides looked at each other silently, Chen Ziyan put his hand on the metal door again, increased his strength and continued to push it.
With a sound, half of the metal door was slowly pushed open, revealing the scene behind the door.
The door behind this metal door is the same as the passage they are in at the moment. The only difference is that there are closed doors evenly distributed on both sides of the metal passage inside, which looks like a hospital ward.
After Chen Ziyan briefly tested it in his own way, he stepped inside. When he walked to the nearest door, he found that there was a transparent window on these doors, and he could see what was going on inside. .
These portals look like the layout of a hospital, but there is nothing inside, just empty rooms.
However, this also brought some help to Chen Ziyan and the others in their search work, allowing them to see the specific situation without going inside.
The two of them walked slowly through the passage without entering any of the rooms.
The two of them have not considered that there will be secret rooms hidden in these rooms, but they are pressed for time now, so they can only do a rough inspection.
Of course, they have also seen that there are no traces of life in many of these rooms, so they did not go in.
The deeper he went, the more Chen Ziyan felt something was wrong. It was normal that this place was much larger than what he remembered, but now this situation was unusual.
He made a rough estimate. Not counting the part of the road they had been sloping down, they had already walked nearly three hundred meters after entering the underground space. This didn't seem to be that far. distance, but there is still a long stretch of road in front of us. The total distance is definitely more than 500 meters, and such a scale is not small underground.
"Master Chen, there is a problem here." Black Glasses looked away from a room and whispered to Chen Ziyan.
Although there was no sense of danger, his experience told him that this place was not what Chen Ziyan said before.
Even though the personnel of the underground research institute had received the news in advance and had evacuated before they entered, the scene now does not look like what it looked like after the evacuation, but more like it has never been used. .
"Yes." Chen Ziyan nodded lightly.
He had a similar feeling.
But he hasn't figured out what's going on yet, but he doesn't pay too much attention to it. No matter what is here, it will be clear when he gets to the core position.
Crack——
And just when Chen Ziyan and the others reached the end of the passage, crisp sounds suddenly sounded one after another behind them.
Both Chen Ziyan and Black Glasses could clearly hear that these noises came from the rooms behind them that they had inspected.
To be more precise, the door locks of those rooms.
Almost as soon as the sound sounded, Chen Ziyan and Black Glasses switched into back-to-back defensive postures.
They also held their respective weapons in their hands, half of their eyes were on the passage behind them, and the other half was on the hall in front of them.
Yes, at the end of the passage is a hall that looks to be the size of two basketball courts. It is a completely different world from the passage behind them. There are dry bones and dried blood everywhere. It's not that there are no imaginary equipment, this hall is like a slaughterhouse.
While the two of them were on alert, the doors in the passage behind them opened automatically, and then a series of dark figures walked out of the originally empty rooms.
These figures appear to be tall, short, fat and thin, but they are all wrapped in dark clothes. Even their faces are covered by masks, and no features can be seen at all.
trap!
The moment he saw these figures appearing, this word immediately flashed through Chen Ziyan’s mind.
Thinking of the clean passages and rooms, and the slaughterhouse-like hall behind him, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Chen Ziyan's mind.
He knows what the hall is for!
This is the breeding shelter.
As expected, the ones they raised were the figures that appeared in the passage behind them.
No, those are not people at all!
At this time, Chen Ziyan also thought about why he felt that the door knocker on the metal door in front of him seemed familiar.
If he guessed correctly, these things hidden somewhere are the legendary Heifeizi!
“Old Hei, let’s go!”
Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan directly pulled the black glasses behind him and ran towards the hall in front.
This passage looks completely different from the hall, which means that the two are not connected, or that they are not connected when Heifeizi is eating.
This also means that there is some kind of isolation setting in the passage hall. Although the result of entering the hall is unknown, if you stay here, you will most likely be locked up with this group of black flies.
"Mr. Chen, what are those?" Black Glasses followed Chen Ziyan and asked immediately after entering the hall.
He already knew from Chen Ziyan's reaction that he knew those things that looked like humans.
"Hei Feizi, have you heard of it?" Chen Ziyan didn't hide anything. He looked around cautiously and said simply.
"Hei Fei...Hei Feizi?!" Black Glasses showed a dazed look at first, but he quickly came to his senses and asked in disbelief: "This thing really exists?"< br>
As someone who has been hanging out with the Nine Sects all year round, he has naturally heard of legendary creatures like Heifeizi before, but this thing only exists in legends and no one has really seen it with his own eyes, so Hei Feizi Glasses are also used as stories.
"Exist." Chen Ziyan whispered: "It's just that everyone who has seen them before is dead."
