Chapter 72: This hole stinks!

For this Taoist friend named Hu, forget it, let’s just call him Xiao Hu.

While Xiao Hu was talking about his experience, he looked at Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue.

The man was dressed in a red robe and white clothes, looking very refined and luxurious.

He was probably a child of some noble family.

He was handsome and tall, a rare beautiful man, and his golden hair was even rarer in the world.

When hiding in the closet just now, Xiao Hu was constantly observing Yun Zhonghe.

He felt that although Yun Zhonghe was young, he was very mature and steady, cautious and careful, but not without ruthlessness.

He could feel that if he had just been discovered, Yun Zhonghe would definitely draw his sword without saying a word and kill all the people searching one by one.

As for the little white-haired girl next to her…well, it’s hard to comment, she just has a very clear sense of stupidity.

“Um?”

Mu Jixue suddenly felt that someone was saying bad things about her behind her back, and she immediately subconsciously turned her gaze towards Xiao Hu.

Xiao Hu couldn’t help but be frightened and quickly calmed down.

It seems that he is not just stupid, but a very sensitive stupid person.

“Anyway, this is what happened to me. I woke up in a dungeon. When the group of people were about to send me to the monster’s mouth, I injured a few of them and ran away. Then I hid in this room and met you.”

Yun Zhonghe nodded and felt sympathy for Xiao Hu.

Yun Zhonghe remembered that in the original game, after Mu Jixue defeated the mission boss, he opened the dungeon.

In addition to the previous team of dead members, there were also the corpses of some independent cultivators.

Perhaps the person in front of me is one of them, a passerby who should have died here.

After all, Yun Zhonghe remembered that in the original plot of the game, the only important character with the surname Hu was the fox fairy Hu Shang, one of the other female protagonists.

However, there was still a long time before Hu Shang officially appeared, so it was impossible for her to appear here.

What’s more, the heroine, whose selling point is her seductiveness, doesn’t seem to match the pig-headed man in front of her.

But it doesn’t matter.

Yun Zhonghe is somewhat related to the Minotaur, so he won’t dislike it.

They are all good brothers who often appear in the Beast X book.

“Friend Hu, my surname is Yun, and this is Miss Mu.”

Both parties exchanged only their last names.

At this moment, Yun Zhonghe had already obtained the clue of Lin Zhongyu’s location, so he didn’t intend to waste time.

“Friend Hu, there is a secret passage under the bed that leads directly to an inn in the town. There are other companions traveling with us in the inn. You can meet up with them first. If anything happens, you can act with them.”

Yun Zhonghe told Xiao Hu the location of his teammates, which was the most he could do.

However, after thinking for a moment, Xiao Hu rejected the suggestion of escaping through the secret passage.

“I won’t leave, Miss…Oh no, I have never suffered such a big loss before. I was almost eaten. I must see that demon cultivator die!”

There was reluctance in his tone when he spoke, and coupled with his face, which was covered with colorful powders, one could instantly understand his mood.

If it was Yun Zhonghe or Mu Jixue, there was absolutely no way they would be able to swallow this kind of humiliation.

“I can lead the way for you two. The mechanism in that dungeon isn’t that easy to find.”

“Besides…one more helper means one more guarantee, right?”

Yun Zhonghe expressed his appreciation for Xiao Hu’s spirit.

Besides, since the other party had said so, he probably wouldn’t be able to persuade him to leave even if he tried to persuade him.

So Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue exchanged glances and agreed to let each other join the team.

So the three of them continued to sneak, using the invisibility talisman and the small stone that enhanced their invisibility, and gradually approached the rockery that Xiao Hu mentioned.

At this time, the moon had risen high.

The big and round moon was hanging high in the sky, but it was covered by a layer of light blood-colored clouds, which looked particularly strange.

Yun Zhonghe and Mu Jixue then realized that they had arrived at the mayor’s mansion. It was extremely exquisite and grand.

Although it was not as good as the Yun Mansion or the Lin Mansion, for mortals, it was already considered a mansion.

It can be seen that Mayor Wu is also a very wealthy guy.

The exquisite courtyard is swollen, with a well-arranged rockery.

This rockery is made up of oddly shaped stones, and its surface is covered with moss and mottled marks.

Xiao Hu pointed to the side of the rockery, where an inconspicuous bulge could be vaguely seen.

That should be the hidden mechanism.

Yun Zhonghe walked forward cautiously, and after making sure that there was no one around, he raised his hand, touched the mechanism, and pressed it.

There was a muffled sound, and the rockery slowly cracked open, revealing a deep dark passage.

“I feel it, Xiaoyu is in here!”

The moment the secret passage appeared, the telepathy between Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu instantly increased.

Great, looks like we found the right place.

Yun Zhonghe glanced around and said secretly.

The stone walls of the secret passage were wet, and there felt a warm and humid atmosphere inside.

The shape was, how should I describe it, a bit subtle, like an abalone.

The top was covered with slippery moss, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell.

“This hole stinks!”

Mu Jixue pinched her nose and resisted instinctively.

But in order to rescue Xiaoyu, she would endure it no matter how much resistance she had.

Yun Zhonghe stuck his head in and checked the secret passage.

It was dimly lit inside, with only a few swaying oil lamps providing a weak light source that could barely illuminate the road under his feet.

“You still have time to go back now.”

Yun Zhonghe kindly reminded Xiao Hu that according to the original plot, the subsequent battle would be extremely brutal, and he did not want any unrelated people to lose their lives in vain.

“I’m not afraid. I want to teach that demon cultivator a lesson!”

Xiao Hu was fearless and was the first to step into the secret passage.

He had been imprisoned here before and was quite familiar with this secret passage.

The secret passage was winding and the walls were wrinkled, wet and slippery, with a faint smell of blood.

Someone must have died here!

At first it was very narrow, but then it became passable.

After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly became open.

Finally they reached the end and Yun Zhonghe and others saw the dungeon.

Hearing the footsteps, Yun Zhonghe immediately felt that the people in the dungeon raised their heads slightly.

Yun Zhonghe was horrified when he saw the situation in the dungeon.

Although it has been described in the game, the people at the scene looked too miserable.

The people in the dungeon had their hands and feet chained and were dressed in tattered clothes.

Many people were missing limbs and their faces revealed despair.

The only good news is that they are all still alive.

Yun Zhonghe went forward to check the situation.

Most people were dying, and only a very few were still conscious.

“Xiaoyu!”

Anxious Mu Jixue glanced at countless people and after searching around, she finally saw Lin Zhongyu who had fainted in the corner!

In terms of completeness, Lin Zhongyu, who had just arrived, was the most complete and tidy.

Mu Jixue hurried over and helped her up.

Only after confirming that Lin Zhongyu was safe and sound did she breathe a sigh of relief.
