Chapter 269 A Moment of Life and Death

Shen Guanyu and Lin Yisheng walked in a long and narrow passage.

It was eerily quiet, with only the sound of their footsteps.

Lin Yisheng touched the wall next to him, the metal felt cool, this should not be a passage that normal people would walk through.

He became more and more nervous as he walked, and couldn't help asking Shen Guanyu.

"Brother Shen, where are we going? Aren't we going to solve the puzzle and find clues?"

Shen Guanyu didn't want to waste words with him. But in order to appease the "hostage" emotions, he still said a few words briefly.

"This is a shortcut. Before I came here, I studied the existing information of this copy and found this shortcut. It should have been used by the employees of the mall."

He walked in front, turned his head slightly, and pointed to the deeper part of the passage.

"The exit is not far away. There is an employee's workroom over there, with props and clues.

Take the props, that one is useful."

What Shen Guanyu said was basically true, but he was vague, and the dangers were all covered up by him.

Lin Yisheng just felt excited.

"That's great. Brother Shen, you and I will be the first to leave the dungeon."

This sounds like "I'd rather die than die with my friend". After Lin Yisheng blurted it out subconsciously, he also felt that it was inappropriate.

"Well...if we go out, is there any way to rescue others?"

"What do you think?"

Unlike the usual gentle and kind Brother Shen, Shen Guanyu seemed to become particularly cold-blooded and impatient when he was alone.

The clearance conditions of the dungeon are actually quite complicated, and the situation of each dungeon is different.

Some dungeons require one person to clear the level and all members will be saved, while others focus on the clearance order. Once a person clears the level, the dungeon will be closed and the rest will die.

Like the Gongguan dungeon that Zheng Xun participated in before, the clearance conditions are also quite special. Shen Guanyu also watched the live broadcast of that dungeon. Because the new White Tower appeared again, it is still very popular.

There are too many situations, so there is no need to explain. Shen Guanyu asked a question in return, which made Lin Yisheng confused.

"This..."

His voice became hesitant. Now there were only him and Shen Guanyu, and no one else spoke for him.

Lin Yisheng couldn't help but shut his mouth. But when he calmed down, he became unconvinced again.

Shen Guanyu was just a stray dog ​​whose backer had fallen. Why did he speak to him in this way?

Shen Guanyu, who was walking in front, didn't pay much attention to his emotions and continued to move forward.

The surroundings became quieter and quieter. I don't know if it was an illusion, even the footsteps were about to disappear.

Lin Yisheng, who originally planned to argue with Shen Guanyu, gradually realized that something was wrong.

The person in front of him seemed to be getting farther and farther away from him.

He adjusted the brightness of the bracelet to a brighter level, but he couldn't see it clearly. The darkness in front of him seemed to turn into one whirlpool after another, and the walls were tilting and deforming, squeezing him walking in the passage.

He felt difficulty breathing, and the boundary between illusion and reality blurred. The stagnant darkness seemed to come alive, surging and swallowing, like a large mass of black paste, and like a deep swamp.

Lin Yisheng couldn't help but stretch out his hands and put them on his throat. He clearly wanted to figure out what was going on, but those hands kept tightening, squeezing out the oxygen in his body, turning him into an immobile fish, unable to even struggle.

There were tiny sounds in his ears, like insects rubbing their feet, or like many people making meaningless mumblings at the same time.

He was upset by the sound, and waved his hands vigorously as if to shoo away flies.

Then he found out in disbelief that the sound came from inside his body.

Shen Guanyu's figure suddenly became closer and farther, which gave Lin Yisheng a little hope.

He stretched out his arms and tried to grab the other person's figure and let him save him.

But the next second, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

Lin Yisheng was shocked and broke into a cold sweat. The arm that was stretched out was clearly forward, but for some reason it was now upward.

He was shocked and confused, and wanted to let go of his hand, but his body felt like it was falling.

Lin Yisheng lowered his head.

Below was an endless abyss.

It turned out that he had fallen into a deep hole without knowing when. This place was quite hidden and dangerous. It should be because the building had been unmanaged for a long time and had fallen into disrepair, and some places had collapsed.

This place was particularly terrifying. Lin Yisheng now only had one hand barely holding the tiles above, and the bottom was completely empty.

If he fell from here, he didn't know how many floors he would fall to before stopping.

... It was meaningless to worry about a few floors. The height of each floor of this shopping mall was amazing. If he fell down, he would be crushed to pieces and there would be no way to survive.

Clearly, he was still dizzy just now, but at this moment, Lin Yisheng was completely awakened by the shock.

Cold sweat immediately wet his back.

Where is Shen Guanyu? !

In his panic, he still remembered that there was a Shen Guanyu, and shouted his name loudly.

"Brother Shen! Brother Shen, save me——"

His miserable shouts hit the metal wall of the passage, and the whole space echoed.

Lin Yisheng shouted more and more desperately, Shen Guanyu had no intention of appearing at all.

At this time, he realized that although Shen Guanyu never resisted their bullying, it did not mean that he would not retaliate when the opportunity came.

Now there was a suitable opportunity in front of him.

This opportunity came at the right time. Shen Guanyu didn't even need to do anything. Just pretend not to hear and let him fall here because of exhaustion.

When the dungeon is over, he can still pretend to be innocent in front of others and say that he knows nothing.

Thinking of this, Lin Yisheng gritted his teeth.

No. He can't just die here in obscurity.

At the moment of death, he burst out with a strong will to survive, and his arm magically recovered some strength.

He adjusted his body posture in the air, exerted all his strength, and put his other hand on it.

Lin Yisheng was sweating profusely, but when both hands touched the pattern of the tile, he was ecstatic.

I'm going to be saved!

He exerted force in his arms and tightened his abdomen to save himself from this bottomless abyss.

However, at this moment, a dazzling white light suddenly came down from above.

Lin Yisheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

"Who is it? Is there anyone! Save me!"

This is the light of the flashlight. There are other players here!

The way out was right in front of him. Lin Yisheng shouted to the person above him, asking him for help and begging him to save him.

But the man did not move.

Lin Yisheng's hands gradually lost strength again. He became anxious.

"I have money... I... give you money... please..."

It was already very difficult to speak. He gritted his teeth and tried to lure the person above him.

The man seemed to be persuaded by him and put the bracelet he had taken off for lighting back on his wrist.

The light source was tilted to one side, no longer aimed at Lin Yisheng's face, and also reflected his facial features.

His eyebrows were deep and thick, and his eyebrows were always slightly frowned. His double eyelids were a neat and tidy wrinkle of appropriate width. The tail of his eyes was raised, which should give people a feeling of coldness and inaccessibility, but because he always lowered his eyebrows and looked down, deliberately ignoring people, he became a false gentleness.

The cold white skin color and soft lips were all inherited from his mother.

Shen Guanyu.

Lin Yisheng would never recognize this face even if he died. He and other team members had laughed at him, saying that he looked too feminine and had no blood, and that Shen Yuan had wasted his efforts to train him when he was alive.

Now it seems that the beast has been retracting its claws and sharp teeth, disguising itself as a docile dog, waiting for an opportunity to move.

On weekdays, when he and other seniors bullied each other, he didn't feel anything, and always felt that the other party lacked the power to resist.

But at this moment, Shen Guanyu didn't say a word, but Lin Yisheng realized with fear that he would not survive.

He saw Shen Guanyu slowly stand up, his legs moved slightly, and his shoes stepped on his fingers, but he didn't use any force.

The strength was added bit by bit. He seemed to want to torture Lin Yisheng intentionally, making him lose hope of life bit by bit.

Lin Yisheng's scream was stuck in his throat.

However, at this moment, behind Shen Guanyu and above, a lazy voice suddenly came.

"Someone - hello, who are you? Show yourself!"

It was Zheng Xun's voice.
