The deep wellhead completely engulfed the red voice, like an evil ghost eating Haisai, capable of engulfing all light.
There are seven floors in the entire Xiacheng District. The further down you go, the closer you are to the source of pollution. This wellhead is one of the passages leading to the lower floors. Some desperate people want to dig more ores and go deeper, but the result is no longer there. Stories of not coming back abound.
Because the danger here is very few even close to him.
This is also one of the reasons why Lin Jie can't see through the red.
Although it is impossible to get ore from a group of adults at a young age, it is not difficult, but it is less.
Just from one meal a day to one meal every two days.
Is this unbearable? Just skip a few meals... But, Hong is completely a fat man.
The stench of wind coming from the hole leading to the lower part made Hong want to vomit. The pure black hole can't see the depth at all. From a distance, it looks like a pool of black lake water, which attracts people to jump and enjoy the eternal fall.
This little fat man stared at the abyss-like wellhead for a long time... Then he turned around and ran away.
Lin Jie frowned, so angry that she wanted to laugh, Hong rushed back home like a deer, Lin Jie followed her, and she ran home in a hurry.
Then fish out a cheap chain from under the stone bed.
"What is this?" Lin Jie turned his head to look at the necklace.
"Have you never seen this from Shangcheng?" Hong asked unexpectedly.
Lin Jie shook his head and gave a negative answer.
"Then it seems that this thing is indeed a treasure." Hong carefully held it.
Although Lin Jie has never seen such a necklace, it is very cheap no matter how you look at it, and there is little magic attached to it. It can be seen that it is an extraordinary item made in batches.
It's something that you won't be able to find even if you lose it.
Hong said quietly: "My grandmother gave it to me. She said this thing is a treasure."
"So, this is where your confidence lies?" Lin Jie hesitated, and then said, "Your grandmother is a member of the Plague Church, right?"
Red's hand gripping the necklace tightened in vain.
The Plague Church is not allowed to exist underground, but this prohibition is useless.
The official is aware of the existence of the Plague Church, which is a product of the last rebellion in Xiacheng.
"Where is the headquarters of the Church of Plague?" Lin Jie continued to ask.
Hong looked up at Lin Jie, and had been with this stranger for two or three days. Hong instinctively thought that Lin Jie was not a bad person, but he was indeed a real adult.
In her impression, all adults except grandma are not good people.
Grandma once said that in Shangcheng District, people are adults after they are twenty, and so should Hong.
Because we are from the upper class, we will return to our hometown one day sooner or later... These are the words of my grandmother.
Therefore, grandma has always had her own attitude and principle towards Hong - that is, Hong can only be a child, a child who will not intrigue and will not become bad.
Hong Shen agreed that she didn't want to grow up, to become an adult, to become the Church of the Plague or any party in the upper city.
She is clearly just a child.
"Grandma often goes to the third floor." Hong said choked up.
Anyway, grandma is dead, and it doesn't matter if grandma's identity is revealed now.
"So you also want to go to the third floor?"
"Well, the headquarters of the Plague Church is on the third floor. My grandmother is very old. The people of the Plague Church gave my grandmother food. It's just that there have been some unavoidable situations in the Plague Church recently..."
"What's the situation?" Lin Jie frowned.
"The god that the Plague Church believes in suddenly spoke. His awakening is only a matter of time. He also gave the Plague Church a book called "Dream of Chaos". Agreed, so I left the church."
"Cough cough..." Lin Jie coughed a few times when he heard this, in order to cover up his embarrassment.
"The Plague Church's dream is to leave the lower city and attack the upper city... This is also my grandmother's dream, but my grandmother doesn't want to attack the upper city, she just wants to return to her hometown."
Hong didn't care about Lin Jie's embarrassment, and continued to whisper: "Even people in the upper city know the purpose of the Plague Church, but they can't stop it, because they don't dare to go deeper."
"Beyond the fourth floor, even the witch of the tree can't reach it." Hong slowly stood up from the ground, clenched the necklace in his hand, and said with some fear: "Because the deepest part of the lower city is the place where the god slept. ."
Lin Jie fell silent, and after a while, he continued to ask:
"Speaking of which, the Plague Church is the leader of your resistance in the lower city."
Hong pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind, shook her head, and said, "They are not, they are the running dogs of the evil god!!"
"They think that the changes that the gray fog has brought to us is a gift from the evil gods. What they want is not to return to their hometown, but how to take revenge on the people in the upper city."
"In their eyes, when the evil god wakes up, everything will be destroyed, whether it is the lower city or the upper city, but they are not afraid, and even think that the evil god's destruction is a gift."
"So I don't want to become an adult. Neither the adults in Xiacheng District nor the adults in Shangcheng District are good people." Hong lowered her head, tears welling in her eyes, and said, "There is no way out for people in Xiacheng District."
Lin Jie looked at the top of Hong's head and said, "So that's the case, that evil god will have all kinds of dreams when he is sleeping. Those bizarre dreams are the source of the gray fog. The closer he is, the more assimilated he is. Thought or appearance."
"And all of this is just a manifestation of his unconsciousness." Lin Jie said, "He didn't even want to hurt anyone at all. When he wakes up, that's when his consciousness returns..."
"Then I will die when his consciousness returns to the cage." Hong was so frightened that she squatted down, holding her knees with her hands.
Lin Jie sighed and said, "Then do you think I'm a bad person?"
Hong didn't know why Lin Jie suddenly asked such a question, she raised her head cautiously and looked at Lin Jie's warm smile, reminding her of the legend about the sun that her grandmother once told her.
Red sniffed, and shook his head firmly.
For some reason, Lin Jie felt relieved and said, "Let's go, let's go dig stones."
No matter what, life has to continue, with the dream of returning home one day, pick up the hammer and start mining.
Hong clenched the slightly emerald green necklace and came to the wellhead leading to the lower floor again, and slowly and Lin Jie went down the stairs at the wellhead.
On the fifth floor, they couldn't even see the lights for two hours a day. The people here have evolved stronger night vision capabilities. The golden vertical pupils and distorted facial features almost made Hong feel sick.
It stands to reason that Hong can't see here at all, but it seems that she has also evolved a more powerful night vision ability.
But unfortunately, there are not many minerals and the sixth floor of the red life here.
Lin Jie pointed to the wellhead, which seemed to be even darker than the surrounding area, and said, "Go on and have a look."
Hong clenched the enchanted necklace in his hand and nodded.
Lin Jie glanced at the ordinary cheap prop, and quietly snapped his fingers, making it start to emit a green light, almost illuminating his red eyes.
