Teresa won't starve

Just as Teresa was considering whether to stop hiding at all, she heard a heavy door closing from the direction she came from above her head, followed by a burst of hurried footsteps, which sounded like they were coming in Teresa's direction.

After going on like this for at most ten seconds, Teresa will collide head-on with that person.If Teresa didn't want to be found, she had to find a place to hide as soon as possible.

But before she could think of a way, a pair of arms hugged her waist from behind and covered her mouth; just as she was about to resist, she heard a voice next to her ear: "Don't make a sound."

......

After ten seconds.

Fu Hua, carrying an oil lamp, appeared here, but he only saw neat rows of wooden boxes and wooden barrels used to hold wine. The old dust on them obviously had not been touched by anyone.

"It seems that someone has been here..."

Fu Hua couldn't help frowning, but he didn't stay here any longer, but continued to rush to the lower level.

934 "Full Escape Skill"

As the footsteps slowly receded, Teresa, who was forced to huddle in a certain corner, immediately broke free from the restraint that was much looser than before.

And while turning around, he stepped back, creating a relatively proper distance.

"Do you like breaking into other people's homes in the middle of the night so much?"

Although for Teresa now, it is a bit too embarrassing for her to see the other person's appearance clearly in a nearly dark environment.

However, the voice she just heard and the smell left in her nose still made her judge that the person in front of her was Sixth Night.

"There is no other way to do this. In my current capacity, if I want to go through the main entrance, it would be strange not to be caught in the City Lord's Mansion."

The sixth night explained his behavior of thieves indifferently, and then brought the topic back to Teresa: "On the contrary, you, if you don't have a good rest at night, your body won't grow taller."

"Don't worry about it!"

......

After calming down her restless mood, Teresa barely looked at the vague silhouette of a human figure opposite because she had adapted to the dark environment: "What is this place? Is the purpose of your coming here related to the Six Laws of Hereticism?"

"To answer your second question first - there is indeed a curse mark of the hell way hidden here, which was originally left behind by 'Yunchen'. It's just because the 'human way' has changed hands, so whether it's me or' She', don't want the same accident to happen again with the curse mark of the hell way."

"Aren't you and Yun Chen the same person?"

Sixth Night shook his head after listening, and did not agree with Teresa's point of view: "I can be Yunchen, but Yunchen is not me. She should have told you about this."

"Your statement is very strange... In other words, in order to avoid unforeseen accidents, that's why you plan to take back the hell way tonight?"

"wrong!"

The Sixth Night denied Teresa's guess and gave the correct answer: "I didn't open the door to the basement. To be precise, I came in after you."

"?"

Theresa froze for a moment.

Because judging from the situation just now, Sixth Night should be walking in front of her.But then she remembered that she did not smell the scent of Sixth Night before she came in, which also proved the correctness of Sixth Night's words:

"Then why didn't I..."

"Don't underestimate the Phantom Thief! Hiding your breath and footsteps is a basic operation!"

Having said that—

"Then why did I discover it 'last time'?"

Teresa deliberately mentioned another world line in the near future, the "accident" that Sixth Night happened to be "bumped into" by Teresa when she broke into the dancer's house in the night.

"Ahem! It was an accident, accident, do you understand?"

Fortunately, this strange individual in the sixth night can have prophetic dreams, so he can still remember things that happened in the future.

But she didn't want to get too entangled in this matter, and listened to the footsteps coming from downstairs for a while, and then lowered her voice: "Our 'master' is walking back, let's hide now, and discuss other things after she leaves here."

"......All right."

Teresa had no objection, and hid in the corner with Sixth Night again, avoiding Fu Hua's second inspection.

As a result, Fu Hua still had nothing to gain, so he could only go back the same way with the oil lamp in hand, and locked the door of the basement from the outside.

If there is no special means of escape, breaking the door violently will be the only way for them to escape from here.

But it also means exposing them.

"It looks like we're all locked up!"

However, facing this situation, Sixth Night didn't seem worried at all, and even had the mood to joke with her, wanting to see if she would be frightened.

It's a pity that Teresa is not a child in the usual sense, and it is still uncertain whether she can even be considered a child: "Stop talking such boring nonsense, let's go down."

"Yes!" Sixth Night walked to the bottom of the stairs, looked at the darkness below like an abyss, turned around and made a suggestion to Teresa: "Why don't you go first? If there is any danger..."

"You can just leave me and run away, right? You go ahead!"

of course.

This is not Teresa's real idea, but she just doesn't want to be followed anymore, because that is really not a good experience.

"..."

So Sixth Night had no choice but to bite the bullet and go down first, leaving a faintly audible muttering on the road:

"I just want to say, I can run with you in my arms..."

935 "Puppet"

"Why is there such an underground space here? What exactly is Master Fu hiding inside?"

If before coming here, Xia thought it was just a cellar or a dark pavilion at most, but now she was completely shocked by what she saw with her own eyes.

She never expected that there would be an underground space in this place, which was even larger than the size of the above-ground buildings.

Although it seems to be storing some red wine, aged wine, food and the like, judging from Xia's experience in carrying out missions over the years, even if it is simply to store food, it is absolutely impossible for it to survive the winter or something.

Because of the total amount of food that can be stored in such a large space, it is a bit unrealistic to say that it can feed a person in a city, but it is still possible to provide food for a village population for several months.

And take this as a starting point and think about it further——

"Could it be that Master Fu is forming an army in secret? Are you planning to resist the rule of the city lord?" (You are in secondary school)

Although Xia didn't have much affection for the city lord, even if she only met once, Xia didn't think that the other party was the kind of person who would do things that hurt the sky and cause anger and hatred.

At least this Yae town can still be called peaceful on the surface.

but.

Xayah soon stopped thinking about it.

Because she is a ninja, a ninja is a tool, and a tool does not need thinking, especially these problems should be considered by big people.

......

While going deep down, I explored carefully, so as not to miss some key points due to an oversight.At the same time, he had to carefully avoid Fu Hua who would come in to inspect for some reason.

At first she thought she had exposed herself.

But when the other party searched around and gave up after finding nothing, she made another judgment again—maybe it was just a routine inspection?

In any case, at least this can be regarded as a relatively favorable result.

After Fu Hua had left completely and made sure that she would not come in again at least tonight, Xia was relatively bold, using as fast and careful actions as possible to explore the corner where the scrolls of Hell Dao secret arts might be stored.

However, after searching a lot, I only found some insignificant things-such as the ledger.

After carefully looking at the above information about the purchase of grain and so on, Xia restored the ledger to its original appearance and put it back in its original place, continuing to walk towards a deeper space.

And saw a strange thing at that end.

"what is this?"

As long as there is a little light here, you can clearly see what Xia is seeing.

Of course, even without much light, Xayah could roughly see a vague outline—what appeared to be a humanoid object all around.

The reason why it is called an object is because it has edges and corners, and the total height is about three or five people. In addition, there are no human life activities-such as heartbeat and breathing, and there is no smell after the corpse rots.

Obviously this can't be a human being.

Especially when Xia approached cautiously and stroked it with her hand.That kind of hard metal texture, but the surface is like a wooden shell, plus the dents that cannot be hidden at the joints and so on.

It made Xia make a judgment: "Is this a puppet?"

Puppets, or human figures, have been circulating in Far East culture for a long time.

Of course, this thing is called a "organ" in China; but because most of the human figures can't move, they are generally not classified into the same category.

And Xia is because she was born in the Far East—even though she grew up in the destiny since she was a child.In addition, he has also traveled in the land of China, so he is not too unfamiliar with this kind of thing.

What just puzzled her was:

"Why does Master Fu hide such a big puppet in his house?"

Generally speaking, if you want to make the puppet move, you need human support to do it.

Although some perpetual motion machines can be made in mechanics, once the thing moves, it will move forever, which is an uncontrollable thing.

This leads to the fact that if you want to control it, you have to make a puppet that requires human control.And the size of this kind of puppet should not be too large, otherwise it would be difficult to move it with human strength.

Even if it can move, it takes a lot of effort, and even causes a certain degree of damage to the puppet itself-it is too light and easy to break, too heavy and difficult to drive.

All in all, Xia thought it should be just a big baby that couldn't move.

But it was precisely because of such a judgment that Xia couldn't understand - what was Master Fu doing with such a thing hidden in his house?

936 "Re-Entering Whirling"

Just at this time, a strange sound caught Xia's attention.

Click!

Xia almost instinctively looked behind her, but she just turned half of her face when she realized that the voice did not come from behind her, but from a giant puppet directly in front of her.

Looking back at this time, I saw the huge puppet actually bent over, giving people a feeling that it was not bending over, but was about to fall, which made Xia immediately realize that there was a problem with the load-bearing structure.

Maybe this puppet had a similar problem before, but unfortunately it was bumped into by itself.

Therefore, he calmed down quickly, and retreated to the vicinity of the stairs; it was convenient for him to evacuate, and at the same time, he could avoid being hit by this big guy.

It's just that what Xia didn't expect was that the huge puppet stopped halfway down, and the entire upper body was almost suspended in mid-air in a bow-like posture.

Then--

Under Xia's unbelievable gaze, he straightened up automatically, and his whole body began to emit a scorching red light, allowing Xia to clearly see its fire truck-like painting at this time.

But what is even more shocking is that this huge puppet, which doesn't even have vocal cords, actually shouted someone's name like a human being.

"Fu-Hua!!!"

......

"It happened!!"

The loud and undisguised roar could be heard even by Fu Hua who had already returned to her residence, which made her immediately realize that someone had alarmed the mechanical puppet.

Without even wearing shoes, he rushed to the direction of the martial arts field.

As a result, when they got there, they found that even the buildings including the Martial Arts Hall and the basement had disappeared, leaving only a huge pit with completely unknown meaning.

......

"Well."

Following a burst of 'familiar' dizziness, when Sixth Night opened his eyes again, he had already come to a world full of dreams; when he was about to ask Teresa what happened, he heard another Another familiar voice came from one side:

"What place is this? And you, are you Yunchen?"

"I...please call me Sixth Night."

Sixth Night subconsciously touched his face, only then remembered that because Teresa knew about her relationship with Yun Chen, she didn't deliberately use a mask to hide her identity, and thought that her own reaction should be able to——

Seeing the hesitation on Xia's face, Sixth Night decisively diverted her attention: "The place we are in now is called the 'Whirling World', a mirror world outside this world."

While speaking, she also looked to the other side.After seeing that Teresa had nothing to do, she relaxed a little.

"Whirling, the world?"
