Desperate Night

"If you don't go down, there will be no food. Eve." Jenny frowned and advised in a low voice. "I'll go down, you can meet me up there, okay?"

"Okay. Then you have to be careful, mom." Eve whispered. When she heard that she didn't have to go down, she immediately stopped objecting.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's get started." Dr. Xu glared at Eve unhappily.

She stretched out her hand to Yu Hong.

"Give me the things, I'll open the door."

"I'll do it." Yu Hong shook his head, holding the stone chiseling set, and walked to the door of the stone house of the post office.

"Open this door first, and then where is the entrance to the basement?"

"In the house, so we have to open two doors." Dr. Xu replied.

Yu Hong said nothing, took out a hammer and chisel, aimed at the door lock and smashed it.

As the muffled sound of "dong dong dong" continued to spread.

After dozens of consecutive smashes, finally, the door lock of the stone house was smashed to pieces, wood chips were scattered all over the floor, and a fist-sized hole was smashed in the keyhole.

The wooden door loosened at once.

Yu Hong took back the hammer, stepped back, and kicked forward.

Bang.

The wooden door remained motionless.

"Wait!" Doctor Xu on the side was speechless, stretched out his hand to hold the door handle, and pulled it out.

With a creak, the door was gently opened, revealing the dark environment inside.

"Okay." Yu Hong was speechless and put away his tools.

The first thing they saw when they stood at the door was a mesh bag dropped on the ground at the door.

The red mesh bag contained pieces of gray-white pyroxene.

But at this moment, all these pyroxenes turned pale. Obviously, they had all been consumed.

Seeing the consumed pyroxene bag, several people looked at each other, and their expressions became solemn.

"The pyroxenes have all been consumed. Obviously, a ghost has entered. Everyone be careful. In this dark environment, ghosts like to hide the most." Jenny was the first to speak. In fact, her skills were the best among the few people.

"I'll go in first." After thinking for a while, Jenny took out a big round pyroxene from her waist bag. The material of this large pyroxene is exactly the same as the one Yu Hong strengthened, but the pattern on it is completely different, and it is still the simplified pattern of the old version.

"Is this pyroxene marrow!?" Doctor Xu on the side was surprised. "This is not an ordinary product. One piece can be worth ten ordinary pyroxenes, and the price is extremely expensive. You actually have it?"

"My husband left it before." Jenny replied coldly. If it wasn't for the extremely dangerous feeling this time, she would not be willing to use it. This was originally a good thing to save her life.

"It's been many years, right? I heard that the runes on it have changed recently, and a more complex version with better effects has come out. Yours is outdated. Why don't you wash it and redraw it?" Doctor Xu asked curiously.

"It can't be washed off, and it's useless to wash it. This rune plays a guiding role. The moment it is drawn, the effect has taken effect. Even if it is wiped off later, it will have no effect." Jenny explained.

As she spoke, she hung the pyroxene around her neck, pulled out the machete from the outside of her thigh with one hand, held the red value detector with the other hand, and walked carefully into the door.

She walked in front, with Doctor Xu in the middle, and Yu Hong in the rear. As for Eve, she didn't want to go down, so she stayed at the door of the stone house to watch the door.

The three of them lined up in a line and walked all the way in, and soon came to the middle hall of the stone house.

There was an open basement door on the ground in the middle hall, and inside the door was the dark basement entrance.

Gusts of cold wind rushed out of the entrance and spread around, as if bringing the entire stone house to a chill.

The three looked at each other, and Jenny took out an atomic light flashlight, pointed it at the entrance, and pulled open the flashlight baffle. Suddenly, green fluorescence shone in, illuminating a section of rusty silver metal vertical ladder.

"I'll go down first, don't rush in, I'll call you when I'm better." She took a deep breath and told the two.

"Okay!" Doctor Xu responded, and Yu Hong also nodded.

After making sure that the two were all right, Jenny turned over and gently climbed on the metal ladder, climbing down like a monkey.

Soon, they reached the basement hall more than ten meters deep.

While Jenny was going down, Dr. Xu took out a hand-drawn map and unfolded it for Yu Hong to see.

"The main structure below is a series of corridors. We are going down to the connection and convergence of all corridors. With this place as the center, there are three corridors connected around it, each of which has many rooms and storage rooms. After all, this place was built for refuge in the past. The original purpose was to prevent weapons of mass destruction in war." Dr. Xu sighed, "I just didn't expect it to be used at this time."

"Is the corridor narrow?" Yu Hong looked down and asked with a frown.

"A little bit. I went down a few times before, all to bandage the postman. The corridor below is at most one meter wide, and it is not high to save materials and space." Dr. Xu nodded.

Yu Hong stopped talking. He stood at one side of the basement, his hand unconsciously stroking the handle of the pyroxite mace, and his expression was more serious than usual.

Time passed by little by little.

About five minutes later, Jenny's voice came from below.

"Okay, come down, there's nothing inside." There was a trace of fatigue in her voice, accompanied by the faint green light of the atomic lamp.

Yu Hong and Dr. Xu looked at the pyroxite on their bodies at the same time, and confirmed that there was no sign of consumption, so they slowly climbed down along the metal ladder.

The two went all the way down to the small hall in the center of the basement, stepped on the ground, and looked at the surrounding environment.

Under the green light, the entrances to the three corridors are located on the walls around the small hall, like three dark and scary caves, with cold wind blowing out.

"I have found the room where Lao Yuchang lives. Come with me." Jenny held the flashlight and spoke in a low tone.

"Have you found him?" Dr. Xu's expression tightened and he asked quickly. It's not that she cares about Lao Yu, but without him, everyone might have a lot more trouble eating in the future.

"I don't know." Jenny shook her head, turned around and led the way towards one of the corridors.

The two of them followed her through the dark corridor and towards one of the side rooms.

"Old Yu is not short of supplies, why don't he get some atomic lamps to illuminate them? Isn't he afraid that this place is so dark?" Dr. Xu couldn't help but ask.

"He said before that the atomic lamp radiated too much and he was afraid that he would get cancer. Now it seems..." Jenny did not continue. Of the three people present, she and Lao Yu spent the longest time together.

Doctor Xu and Yu Hong were actually outsiders who were later saved by Little Stutter.

So Jenny knows the best about Lao Yu.

"He is just a greedy guy, stingy and stingy, and he was lustful and even pursued me before." She sighed again as she spoke.

The other two were speechless. Although Jenny was older, it could be seen that she had a good figure, strong and strong, her face had no wrinkles, and her skin was well maintained. In addition, during this period of time, everyone's skin color turned pale due to lack of light, which made her look even more like the Western vampire beauty Yu Hong had seen before.

So it is really possible that Lao Yu pursued her before.

"This is it, be careful." Jenny held the large pyroxene in one hand and looked at the ajar iron door, her expression becoming more and more serious.

She used the tip of the machete to move forward slightly, and used the tip of the knife to push the door open.

Squeak.

The iron door slowly opened, revealing the dark bedroom inside.

The bedroom was empty, and the bedding on the bed in the corner was messy, as if someone had been on it. The other tables, chairs, cabinets, etc. were all normal, with no trace of anything weird.

Jenny was about to go inside.

Suddenly, she retreated sharply, and her breathing became rapid.

"careful!!"

She opened her arms to block the two people behind her.

"Look at the ground!" she said quickly.

Yu Hong and Dr. Xu looked at the sound at the same time.

On the black floor of the bedroom, a set of gray male work clothes was scattered.

The overalls were long-sleeved trousers, with a dirty yellowed white shirt inside, and a pair of long rubber shoes under the trouser legs. The shiny white glue glowed with a faint green light under the atomic lamp.

"They are Lao Yu's clothes and shoes." Jenny said in a complex voice in a low voice.

"The person is probably gone." Doctor Xu looked at the remaining clothes and felt a little depressed. In a gathering place with not many people, another person died at this time, and a key person who produced food died. This had a great impact on them.

She knelt down and reached out to pick up Lao Yu's clothes.

Suddenly, her pupils shrank and she quickly stood up and backed away.

"Wait!! Everyone, stay back! Don't touch these clothes!!"

Hearing her words, Jenny and Yu Hong quickly retreated without saying a word.

"What's going on!?" Yu Hong also became nervous, holding the stick in his hand and looking around.

"Look at the back of the clothes!" Dr. Xu gritted his teeth. The voice was trembling.

Yu Hong quickly looked through the atomic light.

I saw that Lao Yu's clothes had been turned over by Dr. Xu just now, and a clear small black handprint was revealed on the sleeve on his back!

"Black handprint!!?" His heart sank. I had just heard the characteristics of the evil shadow dead girl, and now I immediately saw this special black handprint.

"Escape quickly! We can't stay here anymore!!" Jenny made a quick decision and turned around to leave.

The other two people also felt cold in their hearts and followed closely behind.

The three of them did not dare to touch anything, so they quickly returned to the small hall, climbed up the vertical ladder, and returned to the stone house.

Bang.

Jenny kicked the entrance to the basement shut with a metal lid.

"This place is out of bounds!" she said firmly.

"This guy Lao Yu definitely didn't escape on his own! Thinking about it now, he must have been stained with black fingerprints a long time ago, so he was kicked out and couldn't be moved away together!" Dr. Xu's face turned pale, " This old guy is still hiding it from us! It seems that I have been in contact with him, can I be infected too? "

"Everyone, check each other carefully. I heard that as long as there is no direct contact, you will generally not be infected. Black fingerprints will show through the clothes." Jenny gasped with her scalp numb. She was also very angry now. After all, Lao Yu's concealment is likely to bring disaster to everyone here.

"Let's check each other out." Yu Hong was silent for a while, then suddenly spoke up.

For a moment, the three of them were silent.

Immediately, the three of them slowly distanced themselves, and then circled each other to see if there were any black handprints on their bodies.

A few minutes later, fortunately, none of the three were infected, which made them obviously relieved.

"We can't stay here any longer. Let's go out first." Jenny said in a deep voice.

"What should I do with food?" Yu Hong asked. "Without Lao Yu, we have to get food ourselves. Wild vegetables alone are definitely not enough."

"I probably know some of Laoyu's breeding process here. Let's try it out. If it doesn't work, go ahead and look for it." Jenny replied.
