Chapter 264 Deep Tunnel



Chapter 264 Deep Tunnel

As for how far this journey will be, Bai Ning cannot speculate, and can only make rough predictions and make big bets.

He picked up the monocular and carefully looked at the overall condition of the horses in front of him. In his high-spirited state, Bai Ning could already detect obvious fatigue.

A large amount of sweat flew down the horse's skin. This state showed that the horse's physical limit was almost reached.

However, since these giant horses are genetically improved breeds, Bai Ning does not know whether giant horses in this state will also be unable to succeed.

Taking out his watch, Bai Ning prepared to wait another three to five minutes to check. If something went wrong, he would quickly jump out of the car.

A few minutes of gambling passed by in a blink of an eye. There was still an endless corridor of spotlights in front of him, and no wide space appeared in the light and shadow in the distance.

After observing the condition of the horse again, he still looked angry and exhaling like a dragon. There was no outward sign of exhaustion at all.

Such a situation makes it difficult for Bai Ning to decide whether to stay or leave.

However, somewhat inexplicably, Bai Ning felt a sense of unreasonable tension in his heart.

This feeling of tension mixed with worry was obviously a special mechanism in the carriage that was interfering with his emotions.

It is completely impossible to tell whether the strange emotional fluctuations in a complex environment are an instinctive feedback deep in the consciousness, an animal alertness to danger.

After thinking carefully for a few moments, Bai Ning finally made a decisive decision.

Bai Ning quickly tied the four bodyguards together in twos, tied their few packages around their waists to cushion them, and wrapped their clothes around their necks to protect their cervical vertebrae. Then Bai Ning threw them out of the car. outside.

Taking one last look at the deep darkness in the distance, Bai Ning curled up slightly and jumped out suddenly, then rolled to release his strength the moment he landed, and then he landed safely.

Falling from a high-speed carriage will inevitably cause some collision injuries. As long as the bones are not broken, this is the best result.

Staggering towards the back, he quickly found the first pair of bodyguards. He quickly checked his pulse. His pulse was stable and his breathing was normal. It seemed that the protective measures just now were still effective.

The four people were gathered together in a hurry. Several of them were already faintly waking up, but I didn't know if their current state was the same as the chaotic isolation state I had at the beginning.

Not sure if they could hear clearly, Bai Ning told them some simple methods of focusing inwardly, hoping that their hearing system could still have a certain effect.

After doing this, Bai Ning took a pair of bodyguards with one hand and dragged them backwards, slowly moving in the direction indicated by the spotlight.

After advancing slowly for more than half an hour, the first bodyguard finally woke up. His horrified shouts made even Bai Ning startle.

He quickly threw it to the ground to stop his howling.

"Shut up."

Bai Ning scolded him coldly and covered his mouth with both hands. His sharp eyes scared the bodyguard into a cold sweat.

As if he was still in a confused state, the bodyguard calmed down for a while before regaining some sense.

He looked at Bai Ning with slightly panicked eyes, and then hummed a few dull times, as if he wanted Bai Ning to let him go.

"Tell me, what have you experienced before?"

Bai Ning is also very curious about the overall status of these ordinary bodyguards. By analyzing more group data, he can also better analyze the special mechanism in the carriage.

“It felt like I had an infinitely long dream, but I can’t remember anything clearly.

I just felt extremely bored, and sometimes a little scared.

At a certain moment, my vision suddenly became empty, as if I had fallen into a bottomless abyss somewhere, and finally, somehow, I woke up in a daze. "

The bodyguard's story was very brief. This was not necessarily the result of his detailed thinking. It was possible that he could only tell so much at the moment.

It was obvious that he could only remember a rough outline of his experience when he was locked in a certain time and space, just like he could only remember a small outline of a dream when he woke up from a dream.

The bodyguard was not deeply affected by Captain Dong's poison. Perhaps he didn't listen at all to Bai Ning's instructions on concentrating and looking inside.

The reason why he was able to wake up was only because he was in good physical condition before being poisoned too deeply, and the connection between his body and consciousness was not completely severed.

The past experiences of the bodyguards were meaningless to Bai Ning.

Bai Ning, who felt a little bored, quickly untied the bodyguard's rope, and then ordered him to drag the remaining three people behind him.

Although the bodyguard wanted to know where the huge carriage had gone, due to Bai Ning's authority and the absolute control of the carriage at that moment, he could only shut up and work like an excellent coolie.

As the time slowly extended, the remaining three bodyguards also woke up one after another. The team became a little more popular, but they remained silent and silently moved forward in the spotlighted corridor.

A full hour has passed, and this corridor of spotlights is still endless.

Bai Ning was not too upset about this result.

There will always be misjudgments in everything. The current dangerous situation forced Bai Ning to be more conservative rather than start taking action only after seeing the end point.

At that time, at most only Bai Ning will be left, and the other bodyguards will have to be sent to designated areas by the Lord of the Netherworld to serve as cannon fodder.

Being alone, many things are difficult to do, and there is no chance for trial and error.

After walking forward for more than half an hour, the spotlighted ceiling that had remained unchanged for thousands of years finally changed.

Some hazy light changes seemed to indicate that the space ahead suddenly became wider.

Have you finally arrived at your expected destination?

I picked up the monocular and took a look. It was still hazy, and I couldn't see any specific details clearly.

Such a sight is as if something is preventing prying eyes from a distance.

Some kind of anti-spying mechanism of unknown principle?

Without having time to think about anything in detail, Bai Ning waved his hand, signaling the entire team to enter a slow stealth state.

Maintaining this silent and slow pace, Bai Ning finally arrived at an area with a good view, and the hazy scene in front of him finally became clear.

The clouds finally cleared and the moon became bright, but that didn't mean that Bai Ning could relax his tense heart.

No matter how long and winding the journey is, it is just a journey.

No matter how concrete the destination is, it can be a frightening place.

What's more, since arriving at the bottom of this abyss, Bai Ning hasn't encountered anything pleasant to his body and mind.

Behind the risks are greater risks. This is the norm here, and it is also breathtakingly unknowable and invisible.
