Chapter 443 Fork in the road
Irrespecting Qiu Jin's unlucky metaphor, Brad and others have gradually adapted to this cramped environment after the panic just now!
Although you need to bow your head and lower your waist, although it is still dark, after holding the rope in your hand, the astringent feeling of sweat connects everyone's pulse, which invisibly adds a lot of security to everyone!
Walking, Brad couldn't help thinking to himself that although the passage was not spacious enough, it was not wet and did not become narrower with their depth. What's more rare was that there was no light source here, but the air did not feel a sense of stagnation at all. Obviously, in front of their unknown, it was definitely not dead. It's just an alley!
In this way, this hidden channel seems to be the path arranged for them by the ultimate boss!
Brad confirmed the speculation in his heart and was secretly relieved! If this is really the path arranged by the potential boss, although there may be enemies to test them, according to its consistent style, it should not kill itself!
What he is most worried about now is Hugh Potter walking in front of him!
After walking for so long, Brad also figured out that Xia Fei and Mei Lu stopped him, just to complete Hugh Porter's unwillingness to be protected, and a solution to the embarrassment of seeing her... Although the person walking in the front of the team may not necessarily encounter the greatest danger, in case something abnormality really happens. Brad will definitely blame himself to death!
Prayed to the unrelenting demon god all the way. Brad did not forget to say two words from time to time, so as not to make Xia Fei feel afraid again!
After walking in the dark for a long time, even Brad's feeling for time became numb. With a soft "huh", Brad suddenly hunted that they might soon see the exit of the path!
"Here... there seems to be a fork in the road!"
Hugh Potter gently waved the rope and showed everyone the direction of the fork in the road!
Brad hesitated for a moment and then asked Hugh Potter to take two more steps forward to make a fork in the road and make room for him to check it himself!
Touching along the hard wall, Brad felt empty without walking a few steps, knowing that this was the fork of the road that Hugh Potter just said!
He groped to measure the size of the passage with his arm and found that although the hole was not spacious, it was wider than the passage they are now in, at least allowing two people to walk away! Feeling the weak airflow, Brad wondered whether this fork road would be the right route to the end, and unconsciously started to be stunned!
And Xia Fei, who followed him, waited for a while and didn't hear the next instructions, so she couldn't help but feel a little anxious!
She shook the rope in her hand and there was a sound in her mouth. Finally, she couldn't help asking, "Brother Brad, what kind of door can you touch like this? Why don't you let me put a small fireball, even if it lights up, enough for you to see the way ahead! It's not so much faster than you!"
"This..."
Brad is obviously a little hesitant! Compared with the decisiveness that just resolutely stopped Xia Fei from setting off lighting, the breeze that now feels that the floating pores seems to have eliminated some of his worries!
He calculated Xia Fei's suggestion in his mind and felt a little moved: If he did it, maybe he could really see something... However, will this be hit by the boss's trick again and trigger an unexpected chain reaction? In the face of the enemy who played tricks on everyone all the way, Brad felt that it was not too much to take precautions!
"What's the matter with this, that and that!"
Xia Fei's voice became impatient and said like a cannon, "Just now, you yelled at me together, which caused me to fall heavily. Up to now, I don't know why I can't set fireballs for lighting! Don't people always have a searchlight or torch or something when they go into the cave? We are not really exhausted. Why do we have to go in the dark?"
Brad laughed dumbly when he heard the words. Unexpectedly, Xia Fei's little head was still entangled in the problem just now. He couldn't help crying and laughing!
Thinking of this little girl who did not lack experience but lacked half a tendon in some things, if she has not been able to get an answer, she will have been turning around on the matter of not letting her lighting the fireballs. Brad could only sigh softly and gently explain these curves to her at once!
"Xia Fei, we also tentatively walked into this place just now. We are not sure whether there will be a beast here. Is it a dead end? Of course, we can't turn on the lighting!"
Brad gently rubbed the rope, as if he were touching Xia Fei's hair, and then said, "Let alone the problem of oxygen consumption, the warcraft insects living in such a dark place are generally afraid of light!" Whether it's a searchlight or a torch ball, for them, it's no different than a signal to invite a battle! Of course, you can't open it easily!"
"But... we didn't get disturbed all the way. Maybe there are no creatures here in the first place! Turn on the lighting now, there should be no problem!"
"There are no large creatures!"
Meilu's voice came from not far away. In response to Xia Fei's question, he said slowly, "Aren't you afraid that you will find all kinds of disgusting bugs under your feet as soon as you turn on the lighting?" Although it's not wet here, according to the consistent style of the behind-the-scenes, it's impossible for us to pass easily!"
She paused and added a firm encouragement in her tone, saying, "Instead of expecting a flash of light, I might as well believe in my other perceptions!" I don't want to see something disgusting that affects my beliefs!"
"Bum...disgusting..."
Xia Fei silently repeated Mei Lu's words, with a little more meaning in her tone: "But if you say so, you will be more afraid if you don't look at it!" ~~~Brother Brad, I beg you, we have all found a fork in the way. You can't judge the direction just by groping, just let me make a light! It's too cruel for me to be suspicious in this dark! Ah! ~~~I feel like something is crawling on my thighs!"
Listening to Xia Fei's shouting, everyone immediately became unable to laugh or cry!
Mulu's words were to remind Xia Fei not to act rashly, but this girl was so unspeakable that her gentle concern came out of her mouth and turned into a cold threat!
Listening to the unstop sound of stepping in Xia Fei's direction, everyone knows that this girl must have been scared to death by her imagination. If she doesn't show her clearly, I'm afraid Xia Fei will attract all the imaginary enemies now!
Thinking of this, Brad sighed helplessly and took the initiative to take out a small strong light flashlight. Instead of shining straight at Xia Fei, he shone closely on the wall next to him and tried to illuminate it with the reflection of his flashlight!
The power of the strong light flashlight is not weak, and several people who have been walking in the dark for a long time have become very ** to the light. Therefore, when the white light suddenly appeared, everyone holding the rope in their hands has instantly saw each other's situation!
Where everyone's eyes are focused, Xia Fei, dressed in red and with short hair, is jumping with her feet and looking frightened! Although there is nothing on her white and tender thighs, everyone knows that in the world imagined by the girl, she absolutely felt the touch of the most horrible and disgusting insects in the world just now!
And at the moment when the light appeared, although the expression on Xia Fei's face and the action she was doing just now were fixed for a second or two, she did not forget at all. She looked down at her thighs, ankles and feet at the first time until she was sure that there was nothing there, and finally calmed down!
"Meru! You scared me to death!"
Xia Fei, who calmed down, couldn't help but be angry when she saw everyone's eyes focused on her. She said angrily, "Thanks to you that you are still so smart, you can scare me with such words. I don't know that I'm most afraid of bugs!" Brother Brad, you are really, will you be too cautious? Don't you think it's okay to turn on the flashlight now? It's really..."
Xia Fei continued to complain, and finally couldn't stand everyone's ridicule. She lowered her head half ashamed and half angrily!
Although she also knew that she was too timid, afraid of the dark and worms that made Brad explain so much and was forced to turn on the flashlight... However, Xia Fei's heart was righteous: she is a girl, afraid of the dark, what's wrong with insects, isn't this full of cute points! Anyway, the flashlight is on now, so you don't have to be afraid. Just achieve your goal!
Thinking of this, Xia Fei raised her head. Although she was still a little frail, her eyes showed unconcealed joy!
However, just as she looked at everyone who also looked at herself with a smiling face, a figure that was obviously different from others attracted Xia Fei's attention, which made her suddenly look surprised and shouted!
"Hugh Potter! What are you...what are you looking at? Your appearance is so terrible! ~~”
When Xia Fei shouted, Brad hurriedly turned around and bumped into Hubert, who was less than half a meter behind him!
Following Hugh Potter's eyes, he looked straight at the newly discovered fork in the road. Suddenly, his body stiffened and the expression on his face became stunned. The expression of fear, puzzlement and disgust was indeed terrible!
"What is this...what is this!"
Brad spit out a few words with difficulty. He felt that his teeth made a "cluck" sound because they were too nervous, which sounded extremely creepy!
He can't take his eyes away. In fact, he doesn't need Hugh Potter's answer. Maybe his question is just soothing the strange emotions in his heart! However, it was Brad's question that attracted others to come and stand beside him one after another, looking at the new fork in the road!
In an instant, everyone, including the old devil, became stiff!
