Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

"As long as you can bring us back to the ground, you can take away everything you take from here," Chang Yin said.

Xu Xin was silent for a while, and asked, "I'm afraid it's not easy to bring you back to the ground?"

"That's right," Changyin tapped the stone table with his index finger, "It's impossible for you to go back the way you came. The way you came is already blocked. If you want to go back to the ground, you have to Continue walking down the corridor."

"Oh?" Xu Xin frowned, "Didn't you block it?"

The gate at the entrance of the dungeon suddenly closed automatically after he entered, and it was already locked.

"Of course it's not us." Xuelan on the side spoke, "You are the third person to cooperate with us. The road was always blocked in the first two times."

the third time?

"You said that the person you cooperated with last time...is the owner of this backpack?" Xu Xin pointed to the backpack she was carrying on her back.

"Yes, he is the survivor who came here twelve years ago."

Twelve years ago...and this twelve years. Speaking of which, the fruit in this backpack has not rotted for twelve years, and it is indeed a blue-grade fruit.

Changyin seemed to see the doubts in Xu Xin's heart, and explained actively: "Every twelve years, a group of survivors from other worlds will come to our world. As far as I know, you are the fifth batch."

"I'm the fifth batch... What happened to the first four batches of survivors?"

"I don't know," Chang Yin shook his head to express that he didn't know, "I only contacted the survivors who came here."

"You treat the survivors who came here as test subjects. Now they have all become mutants." Xu Xin narrowed his eyes and looked at Changyin and asked.

Chang Yin froze for a moment, then shook his head.

"It's not what you think. The dozen or so mutants you saw are the first batch of survivors." Xue Lan spoke again.

Her voice can always make people feel convincing, but Xu Xin doesn't like the feeling of being led by the nose. She frowned and took out an orange from her backpack. Oranges can reduce the impact on the spirit of the opposite party.

"Hey!" Ke Ke, who had been quietly lying on Xu Xin's shoulder, yelled suddenly, and tugged at his clothes. Xu Xin had to give Ke Ke one too, and Ke Ke jumped onto the stone table, hugged the orange and ate it.

Changyin and Xuelan didn't care what Xu Xin ate, Xuelan continued: "They came in groups and wanted to destroy everything here. At that time, Changyin and I were not stone statues..."

"Xuelan, you don't need to explain this kind of thing to him. Xu Xin, you just need to know that we didn't kill innocent people indiscriminately." Chang Yin interrupted Xuelan.

"Then how do you explain the inscription on the stone table outside?" Xu Xin asked, that kind of inscription would only be engraved in extremely desperate situations.

Changyin was silent.

The room was quiet for a while, and finally it was Xuelan who broke the silence. She took Changyin's hand lightly: "You mean the writing on the stone table outside? It wasn't left by the group of survivors."

"What do you mean?" Xu Xin didn't understand Xue Lan's meaning for a moment.

"I engraved that word." Chang Yin said suddenly, a red light flashed in his stone eyes, and it was fleeting, "How do you think we became what we are now?"

Xu Xin fell silent again. He didn't expect to get such an answer.

The room fell silent again.

Chang Yin suddenly slapped the table, and the palm of his hand made a crisp sound on the table: "Okay, we have talked enough, now, let's talk about the cooperation. What we want you to do is very simple, that is, bring We leave this place and return to the surface."

"To tell you the truth, it's very difficult. The survivor 24 years ago was torn to pieces by the mechanism. The survivor 12 years ago chose to stay here after trying to no avail, but after staying On the third night, he suddenly stopped breathing. You may not believe it, but his death has nothing to do with us.

So far, none of you survivors have made it out of this corridor alive. The first batch was our fault, but we didn't take care of the second batch, and they were wiped out.

The third and fourth batches of survivors were all alone. We chose to cooperate and help them, but all ended in failure. And you are the fifth batch of survivors who came here. "

Xu Xin could probably think of how the survivor died, probably because the activity could not be completed.

"In this case, why did you choose to cooperate with me?" Xu Xin was puzzled, "Didn't you try to go out by yourself? Your bodies are much stronger than mine."

"Isn't there a mysterious voice speaking in the minds of you survivors from time to time?" Chang Yin pointed to Xu Xin's head.

"...You really know the survivors."

"That mysterious voice will also speak to us."

What Changyin said made Xu Xin's eyelids jump, and he stood up: "Can you hear this voice too?"

If so, is this voice the "god" mentioned in the altar?

Chang Yin gestured for Xu Xin to sit down, and after Xu Xin sat down, he said, "That's right, that voice told us before the arrival of the third group of survivors twenty-four years ago, follow the survivors, Only then can we get out of this dungeon."

"We also tried to walk by ourselves, but the way up is blocked, and the way to the depths of the corridor will be closed by a metal door, only you survivors can push through, no matter what method we use, we can't open it " Xue Lan said softly.

"Then it's okay if I push you away?"

"No, there are at least three doors in the passage. The survivors twelve years ago were stuck in the third door and couldn't get out. In the end, we can only return here." Xue Lan explained, "If the situation does not change, the first two We all know the mechanism of the door, and we can handle it, but it’s up to you to push the door, we can’t push the door no matter what.”

Xu Xin sorted out everything they said, about the world, about the survivors. At the same time, he also knew that the voice was not only related to the survivors, but also inextricably linked with other creatures in this world.

"After going up, what are you going to do?" Xu Xin asked what he wanted to ask most now.

"We'll talk about it when we go up, we want to verify what that voice said to us now."

"What words?"

"If what it says is true, you'll know it when you get to the surface."

Xu Xin didn't ask any more questions. Although what the two stone statues said did not seem to be lying to him, he did not fully believe it. There are some things that he still needs to verify by himself.

"Okay, I agree, I will take you out, but all the supplies from here belong to me."

"If you can really take us out, I can make a bunch of contract cards for you. The premise is that you can really take us out, instead of dying halfway."

In order to prove what he said, Changyin took out a blank piece of paper and a special pen from nowhere on the spot, and made a contract on the spot in just a few tens of seconds.

The blank paper was gradually filled with strange characters under Changyin's pen, emitting a green light. The completed Changyin handed the contract to Xu Xin: "Don't you survivors see the properties when you touch the object?"

Xu Xin took it, and sure enough, it was the [Mutated Beast Contract], with some words that Xu Xin couldn't understand. It was a bit like ancient characters like oracle bone inscriptions, and it was the same as the previous contract.

"...How did you make this?" Xu Xin was a little puzzled, so he finished it with just a few strokes?

"Secrets, oh, don't pay me back, if you can take us out, these will naturally be yours."

He didn't say a word. If you can't get out, these things will naturally stay in the dungeon.

Xu Xin decided to go back to the original route to take a look. Chang Yin told him that the original route was closed, but he still wanted to check it out by himself.

Chang Yin and Xue Lan didn't follow Xu Xin. According to their words, this place must be closed. Anyway, Xu Xin was coming back, so they didn't follow.

He opened the door of the room and walked out, only to find the stone statue of the middle-aged maid standing not far from the door. This stone statue hadn't come out since the beginning, but it suddenly appeared not far from the door, which surprised Xu Xin.

"Well, hello." Xu Xin greeted the statue of the maid.

"Hello." The stone statue of the maid also bowed to him, just like a servant meeting a guest.

According to Chang Yin, this maid statue should have been a human being in the past.

Seeing that the statue of the maid did not make any further moves, Xu Xin nodded to her, turned and left.

After leaving the corridor, Xu Xin took Ke Ke to the stone room at the entrance of the corridor.

The table full of resentful words was still placed here, Xu Xin approached again and carefully observed the writing on it.

Although the handwriting is crooked and hard to read, it is indeed somewhat similar to the handwriting on the newly-made [Mutated Beast Contract] that has just been printed. Although it is not a type of language, some strokes have exactly the same habits.

It seems that Chang Yin did not lie, these words should be engraved by him. After confirming this point, Xu Xin was a little relieved.

Although he was very curious about how Changyin's family turned into stone statues, Xu Xin did not have the habit of exposing scars, and judging by Changyin's attitude, he would never tell Xu Xin.

He got up and walked to the door that he had tightly closed to avoid the mutant bats, and gently opened the door with his hand.

A bat that was squeezed to death by Xu Xin when he closed the door fell to the ground, making a crackling sound.

The two rows of candlesticks on the wall of the staircase passage were still burning, illuminating the entire staircase.

"Hey!" Ke Ke yelled softly, pointing to the group of bats hanging upside down not far above the steps.

Xu Xin took out the broom that could repel wild beasts from his backpack.

The moment he took out the broom, the bats suddenly moved.
