Chapter 449

The deep mouth of the well completely swallowed up Hong's voice, like a ghost eating haysai, able to swallow up all light.

There are seven floors in the entire lower city, and the closer 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 ore and go deeper. Stories of not coming back abound.

Because of the danger here, there are very few people who are 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 there are few.

Just from one meal a day to one meal every two days.

Is this unbearable? It's just a few meals less... However, Hong is completely a fat man.

The foul-smelling wind from the hole leading to the lower part made Hong want to vomit. The pure black hole couldn’t see the depth at all. From a distance, it looked like a pool of black lake water, attracting people to jump and enjoy the eternal fall.

The little fat man stared at the mouth of the abyss-like well for a long time...then turned around and ran away.

Lin Jie frowned, so angry that she wanted to laugh, Hong rushed 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 before in the upper city?" Hong asked unexpectedly.

Lin Jie shook his head and gave a negative answer.

"Then it seems that this thing is indeed a treasure." Hong held it carefully.

Although Lin Jie has never seen this kind of necklace, it looks very cheap no matter how you look at it, and there is very little magic power attached to it. It can be seen that it is a mass-produced extraordinary item.

This kind of item is something that you won't find even if you lose it.

Hong said quietly: "Grandma gave it to me, she said it is a treasure."

"So, this is where your confidence lies?" Lin Jie hesitated, and then said, "Your grandmother is from the Plague Church, right?"

Hong's hand holding the necklace tightened in vain.

The Plague Church is not allowed to exist underground, but this prohibition is useless.

Officials are aware of the existence of the Plague Church, which is a product of the last rebellion in the lower city.

"Where is the headquarters of the Plague Church?" Lin Jie continued to ask.

Hong looked up at Lin Jie, 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 said that in Uptown, adulthood is after the age of twenty, and so should Hong.

Because we are from the upper class, sooner or later we will return to our hometown... These are the exact words of my grandmother.

So grandma has always had her own attitude and principles towards Hong—that is, Hong can only be a child, a child who will not fight or turn bad.

Hong took it for granted, she didn't want to grow up, to become an adult, to become either the Plague Church or any party in Uptown.

She was obviously just a child.

"Grandma often goes to the third floor." Hong said with a sob.

In any case, grandma is dead, and it doesn't matter if her identity is revealed now.

"So you want to go to the third floor too?"

"Well, the headquarters of the Plague Church is on the third floor. Grandma is very old. People from the Plague Church gave her 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 believed in suddenly spoke, and it was only a matter of time before he woke up. He also gave the Plague Church a book called "Dream of Chaos". Agreed, so I left the church."

"Ahem..." Lin Jie coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment when he heard this sentence.

"The Plague Church's dream is to leave the lower city and counterattack the upper city... This can be regarded as grandma's dream, but grandma doesn't want to counterattack 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 the people in the upper city know about the purpose of the Plague Church, but they can't stop it, because they dare not go deeper."

"Beyond the fourth floor, even the tree witch can't reach it." Hong slowly stood up from the ground, clutching the necklace in his hand, and said with some fear: "Because the deepest part of the lower city is the place where the god sleeps." .”

Lin Jie fell silent, and after a while, he continued to ask:

"Speaking of which, the Plague Church is the leader of the resistance of the people in the lower city."

Red pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind, she shook her head and said, "They are not, they are the lackeys of the evil god!!"

"They think that the change that the gray mist gave us is a gift from the evil god. 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 the lower city nor the adults in the upper city are good people." Hong lowered her head, tears welling in her eyes, and said, "People in the lower city have no way out."

Lin Jie looked at the top of Hong's head and said, "So that's how it is. That evil god also had various dreams when he was asleep. Those grotesque dreams are the source of the gray mist. The closer you get to him, the more you will be assimilated. Is it the mind or the appearance."

"And all of this is just his unconscious expression." Lin Jie said: "He didn't even intend to hurt anyone at all. When he wakes up, it's the time when his consciousness returns..."

"Then when his consciousness returns to the cage, I will die." 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 asked such a question suddenly, she cautiously raised her head to look at Lin Jie's warm smile, which reminded her of the legend about the sun that her grandmother once told her.

Hong sniffed and slid his nose, then shook his head firmly.

Lin Jie didn't know why, but felt relieved, and said, "Come on, let's go dig the ore."

No matter what, life still has to go on. With the dream of returning to my hometown one day, I picked up the hammer and started digging.

Holding the slightly emerald green necklace tightly, Hong came to the wellhead leading to the lower floor again, and slowly went down the stairs with Lin Jie.

When they reached the fifth floor, they couldn't even see the lights for two hours a day. The people here had evolved a stronger night vision ability. 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 Red Life here.

Lin Jie pointed to the mouth of the well, which seemed to be once darker than the surrounding area, and said, "Go on and have a look."

Hong tightly grasped the enchanted necklace in her hand, and tapped it.

Lin Jie glanced at the ordinary cheap prop, and snapped his fingers quietly, making it start to emit emerald green light, almost illuminating the red eyes.
