Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 84 The Underground Staircase

This...is the entrance to the dungeon?

Xu Xin slashed at the door with the iron sword in his hand, but there was no scratch on the door, only a harsh scratching sound.

Is this some special metal? If it was made of bronze, his blue-level iron sword would definitely be able to scratch marks on the gate.

Moreover, the entrance is too difficult to find, right? If he hadn't had an idea to follow Toad just now, who knows how long he would have spent in the maze and how many unknown dangers he would have encountered.

Xu Xin thought of the rules of this event.

[All survivors who have not found the entrance to the dungeon will leave this beautiful world forever. 】

Now it seems that even if it is this first step, many people may not be able to complete it.

He knew that mysterious voice would not be so kind.

Tell the people in the group how he found the entrance of the dungeon first. It is too dangerous for him to go in and explore alone. Helping others to enter can at least exchange experience.

"Everyone, I found the entrance to the dungeon."

[Explorer] immediately boiled inside.

Wang Lei: "Damn it! Mr. Xu got out of the maze so quickly? I'm still spinning in circles!"

Li Wenxi: "Ah? You entered so much later than me... I'm fw, I don't want to work hard anymore, hurry up, tell me how I found it!"

Ji Zhaoyang: "You walked out? The passage on my side has become wider, maybe it's just ahead."

Xu Xin: "Then it should be right, the right path is indeed very broad."

Wen Guixin: "How did you find it? I've been circling here, but I've killed a lot of mutated animals."

Xu Xin told them his method.

Qin Yunlong: "There is an underground river below here."

Li Wenxi: "So that's the case, oops, I knew I had just left a monster."

Zhao Xiaochuan: "But the mouse I met ran too fast, and I couldn't catch it if I let it go..."

Wen Guixin: "It's so stupid, you won't let it get seriously injured, it's better to hurt its leg, and then follow it? But the mouse may not lead to the right direction, it's better to find it like Xu Xin did. aquatic."

Xu Xin: "Well, I've told you everything that needs to be told. Come on."

Xu Xin sent this experience to the regional channel again, and warned those people that discovering the cracks in the cave does not mean finding the entrance of the dungeon. You have to go through the crack maze inside to reach the entrance. At the same time, he also briefly explained the dangers in the maze. for a moment.

As for how many people are still in the tree house and how many people can see it, that's not his business.

Looking at the gate of the dungeon in front of him, Xu Xin first took out various fruits from his backpack to make up his condition. He spent a long time in the maze, and the positive state of his body was basically gone.

Feeling full of energy and strength again, Xu Xin reached out and grabbed the doorknob.

"Ke Ke, is there any danger behind the door?" Xu Xin turned sideways to prevent herself from facing the crack of the door, in case something suddenly appeared in the door.

"Hey." Coco shook his head to show that he didn't feel any danger.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Xin used both hands to pull the door knocker outwards.

There was a tooth-piercing sound of metal rubbing, the door was slowly opened, and countless dust fell and scattered Xu Xin and Ke Ke's faces.

"Bah, bah, bah!" Xu Xin took a mouthful of ashes, but instead of stopping, she increased her strength and opened the door to the limit.

An inexplicable stench emanates from the door, different from the stench of red mist, this smell is like a damp quilt that has been damp for a long time, it is a damp and musty smell.

Xu Xin looked inside the door. Inside the door is a long stone staircase.

The stone stair passage goes down all the way, and there is no end in sight. The stairway is very wet, and water drops fall from the rock wall above the passage from time to time, making a crisp sound of water dripping on the damp stairway.

Both sides of the passage are made of flat gray stone bricks, and every few meters there is a device in the shape of a candlestick, which seems to be used to illuminate the passage, but these candlesticks have not been lit at this time, and the passage is still pitch black. .

It seems that this ladder will lead to a deep underground.

"Oh..." Ke Ke shrank her body in fear. This dark environment, coupled with the smell of damp and moldy, and the sound of dripping water from time to time, is really creepy.

To be honest, after experiencing the underground world last time, Xu Xin also felt a little afraid of this kind of passage leading directly to the underground. He even thought, since he has found the entrance, he won't die anymore, why not just go back?

Of course, this kind of thought only appeared for a moment, and his curiosity about the unknown and his desire to explore suppressed his fear. The mysterious voice also said that the underground city is full of resources left by the predecessors. If you get these resources, the pressure of survival will be greatly reduced.

After calming down, Xu Xin first threw a stone inside, and after finding that there was no trap, she resolutely stepped into the door.

The feet stepped on the wet steps, making the sound of treading water.

"The stairs here are too slippery, so be careful, otherwise you will fall and roll down, and you won't be able to stop on such a long staircase." Xu Xin walked carefully step by step.

Ke Ke also saw Xu Xin's difficulties, jumped off his shoulders, and walked down the stairs slowly beside him.

Suddenly, there was a gust of wind from the depths of the stairs, and an orange fire suddenly lit up at the dark end of the passage.

"What's going on!" Xu Xin stopped alertly.

The orange-red fire spread upwards from the distance below, and Xu Xin could see clearly that the candlesticks on both sides of this passage were being lit one by one!

Within a few seconds, the candlesticks on both sides of Xu Xin were ignited, followed by a damp and musty wind, which almost threw Xu Xin onto her back.

Then, there was a "bang" sound of closing the door behind him.

"Oh!" Keke was taken aback and hugged Xu Xin's calf.

"What's the situation?" Xu Xin hurriedly looked back, and the door he had opened had been tightly closed at this moment.

"The door is closed? Can't you get out?" Xu Xin's eyelids twitched. He walked back to the door. There was no knocker inside the door, so Xu Xin could only use all his strength to push the door that had just been opened.

As he expected, the door that could be opened just now couldn't be pushed by him even an iota.

"...This is to cut off people's backs!" Xu Xin gritted her teeth and looked into the depths of the passage again.

In this situation, we can only go down without looking back.

So, one person and one little panda walked down the stairs slowly.

The inside of the passage is very quiet, only the slight sound of Xu Xin's footsteps in the puddle on the steps, the sound of water dripping from time to time, and the occasional "cracking" sound of burning unknown fuel in the candlestick.

After going down at least a hundred steps, this passage still has no end in sight.

Xu Xin didn't dare to walk any faster, the wet stone steps were really slippery, he almost slipped once just now, now he has to step on the stone steps sideways to ensure that his feet don't slip. From time to time, water droplets would fall on Xu Xin's head and body, making his hair wet.

Coco was not affected, it would always run forward a dozen steps first, then stop on the steps and tilt its head to look at Xu Xin, wait for Xu Xin to catch up, and then run forward a dozen steps.

After walking for about ten minutes, Ke Ke, who had already run a few steps forward, suddenly turned around and ran back to Xu Xin's side, tugged at Xu Xin's trouser legs, pointed to the passage, and called out in a low voice: "Hey."

Is there any danger ahead?

Xu Xin squinted her eyes and looked into the depths, and found that there seemed to be something hanging on the upper edge of the stepped passage not far ahead.

It's a little far away, so I can't see clearly.

"Ke Ke, stay with me, don't run any further."

"Oh!"

Coco obediently did not run forward. Xu Xin was still going down the steps steadily, and after a certain distance, he saw the thing hanging above the passage.

"Hiss - such a big bat? There is such a large group!?"
