Chapter 14
The sudden sound from behind the mountain wall startled the three of Zhao Dong in the cave.

The sound was a bit muffled, but it continued, fast and slow, strong and weak. It sounded like someone knocking on the wall to pass the time, or some animal was constantly hitting the mountain wall, looking for an exit.

"Behind here, there won't be any secret room, or is it the lair of some strange beast?"

Hu Fenglin leaned his ear against the mountain wall, lay down on it, and expressed his opinion after listening for a while.

"Maybe it's some kind of mountain mouse, trapped in the cracks and unable to get out." Ye Lan felt that there was nothing to make a fuss about.

The cave looked impregnable, but in fact it was full of gaps. For them, there might be no way out. For those smaller beasts, it was a natural passageway, allowing them to come and go freely.

Compared to the relaxed look of the two, Zhao Dong thought more. He had just discovered the clues left by his father, and the voice rang out. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but what if it wasn't.

If the person who made the noise was Dad, he was trapped behind this mountain wall, maybe he heard their voices, or he had been working hard to make the noise, but they didn't hear it just now.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that there was such a possibility. Zhao Dong began to knock on the mountain wall continuously, trying to find out the source of the sound.

He also knew that he might be on the edge of a dead end, but he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. What if he really was his father? Instead of worrying about gains and losses here, he should act directly, find a way to pry open this mountain wall, and see for himself what is going on behind him. have what.

"Let's forget it. One more thing is worse than one less thing." Hu Fenglin didn't know the inside story. Seeing Zhao Dong's attitude of wanting to tear apart the mountain wall to see what happened, he couldn't help but advise.

After all, this is the Luluo Forest, and there are strange beasts everywhere, such as rock rats, double-headed snakes, red-eyed bats, etc. They live in caves, and they managed to get out safely. Isn't that asking for trouble for yourself?

"This sound only appeared after we passed by. Maybe someone is really trapped."

Ye Lan vaguely understood what Zhao Dong was thinking. If she were in this situation, she would definitely want to see what happened with her own eyes. Otherwise, she would just be confused and wonder what she missed.

"What two weirdos." Seeing that Ye Lan, like Zhao Dong, began to knock on the mountain wall bit by bit, looking for mechanisms that might not exist at all, Hu Fenglin couldn't help shaking his head.

They originally formed a team halfway due to danger, and now that they have escaped danger, they separated and went their separate ways as a matter of course.

Looking at the strange reactions of Zhao Dong and Ye Lan, Hu Fenglin also guessed that there might be something else hidden, but thinking that he seemed to be possessed by a degenerate spirit recently and kept reciting words, he really didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

"Xiao Ming's grandma is a hundred years old. Why can she live so long? It's because she never cares about other people's business."

"Go to TNND."

After muttering a few steps towards the entrance of the cave, Hu Fenglin suddenly cursed, turned around and walked back quickly.

"Whenever you want to find it like this, get out of the way and watch me."

As he said that, Hu Fenglin took two steps forward, waved away Zhao Dong and Ye Lan, and knocked in front of the mountain wall alone, either lying on the top to listen to the movement, or staring at a place, not knowing what he was doing.

At this time, the knocking sound had stopped. Zhao Dong and Ye Lan searched for a long time, but found nothing. Seeing that Hu Fenglin seemed to have a solution, they had no choice but to stand by and watch him toss.

Less than 5 minutes later, Hu Fenglin suddenly straightened up and pressed something somewhere. Suddenly there was a sound from deep in the cave, like something heavy moving on the ground.

Zhao Dong's heart was shocked, he didn't have time to speak, and rushed over immediately, Ye Lan was afraid that he would have an accident, so she hurriedly followed.

"Hey, wait for me, really, the bridge will be demolished before the river crosses."

Hu Fenglin jumped, raised his hand and patted the mountain wall a few more times, and then quickly chased after him.

A secret door appeared on the mountain wall about 200 meters away from the cave entrance. Zhao Dong was sure that when they passed by just now, there were complete mountain walls on both sides, and there were absolutely no traces of man-made signs on them.

"Young Master Hu will know if there is one as soon as he makes a move."

Hu Fenglin ran over, groped around the edge of the secret door, and found a protrusion. With a hard push, the secret door slid open to one side.

The moment Shimen opened an account, the slightly turbid air rushed out, and Zhao Dong didn't care about the bad smell, so he turned on his flashlight and rushed in.

Inside is a stone room with two entrances. The area is not small. There are tables and chairs. There are leftover food packaging bags on the table and a few empty wine bottles on the ground. It is obviously inhabited by people, and the air still has a faint smell of disinfectant. .

There was no one in the first stone room, Zhao Dong glanced at it, and walked quickly into the second stone room, the situation inside surprised all three of them.

The inner room of the stone room is obviously a prison cell, and a solid iron fence divides the space into two.

In the simple prison cell, there were three children, two of them were lying on the ground, they should be girls in clothes, and the other half leaned against the corner, it was a boy, about five or six years old, who was flickered by the light of the flashlight and was raising his hand to block his eyes .

"What's going on here, child abuse? A cage version of Tiger Parents?"

Hu Fenglin gasped, what he said made Ye Lan roll his eyes, he slapped him angrily, and said, "Don't just watch, open the door soon."

On the iron fence that served as the prison door, there were two strong big locks, which seemed to be unable to be opened by brute force for a while, but the hand that Hu Fenglin showed just now was obviously quite proficient in this area. Two ordinary locks shouldn't bother him.

"Why is it just me? I'm a good citizen and I don't know how to open a lock." Hu Fenglin muttered a little uncomfortably, but looking at the three children inside, he still walked to the cell door, and after some tinkering, he finally got it. The door opened with a click.

Ye Lan went in immediately, took out the water bottle she had with her, fed the little boy in the corner a drink, then turned to check the two little girls lying on the ground.

"How do you feel? Can you talk?" Zhao Dong glanced at Hu Fenglin, signaling him to be on guard outside, while he walked in and said to the little boy who had recovered a little.

The clothes on the little boy's body were wrinkled, and his face was gray and black, but he still looked cute, but he didn't look energetic and didn't speak. He looked at Zhao Dong with a pair of big eyes, and his eyes were a little lax. .

"Tell me what this place is and why you were locked up here."

Zhao Dong took out a piece of chocolate and handed it to the little boy, watched him eat it, and then asked again.

"I don't know, I was caught here. The two of them were here when I came here." The little boy ate the chocolate, and he became more energetic. He grabbed the remaining half of the chocolate and gestured while eating, "That Here, the villain, there is a scar, which looks scary."

"Are there scars on your face?" Ye Lan tilted her head, took out her mobile phone, pulled out a picture, and held it in front of the little boy, "Is it this person?"

"That's him." The little boy shrank back a bit, with a look of fear on his face, and nodded.

"This is really troublesome." Ye Lan frowned slightly, and said to the two, "This guy is called Cui Yong, he is a desperado, he has captured several children in City Y, and it is said that he has fled to City H to hide , The Hunter Union has issued a wanted warrant."

"Recently, it seems that some children have been lost, and there are quite a few of them. The Internet has spread like crazy." Hu Fenglin held on to the iron fence, and said with a surprised face, "So it's not a rumor, it's true?"

Zhao Dong was confused by what he heard. He has been practicing hard recently and is preparing to participate in the hunter assessment. After binding the system somehow, accidents happened at home one after another. .

"No wonder I haven't been able to find him. He is hiding here." Ye Lan stood up and said, "Cui Yong may come back at any time. We must leave as soon as possible."

"What are you afraid of? If you meet him, just catch him. You will not only eliminate harm for the people, but also receive a reward." Hu Fenglin's eyes lit up.

He has already checked it just now, and the trade union has offered a huge reward. Just providing Cui Yong's whereabouts, there will be [-] information fees. Good thing about pies.

"What beautiful things are you thinking about?" Ye Lan said angrily.

Although Cui Yong is only a third-level hunter, he is extremely powerful, has a lot of means, and acts extremely ruthlessly.

Moreover, the two little girls have been unconscious, and their lives may be in danger if they are dragged down. In addition, there is a little boy who has no strength to walk. If they really meet Cui Yong, the three of them may have to get in.

Hearing what Ye Lan said, Hu Fenglin remembered that he had been unlucky recently and was not so optimistic. Zhao Dong was the weakest among the three, so he naturally did not dare to rely on him. As soon as the three of them combined, he took action immediately. It is best to get up and carry one on each person's back.

Before leaving, Hu Fenglin kept an eye out and restored the secret door to its original state, so that if Cui Yong came back just after they left, they could delay the time.

The three of them walked out of the cave with the child on their backs, feeling a little dumbfounded.

Outside the cave, there is an endless virgin forest, covering the sky and the sun, and it is full of dark green everywhere. It is impossible to distinguish the direction at all, and the locators in their hands do not respond.

Zhao Dong remembered that there was a compass stuffed in his pocket, and he took it out to look, but it was useless, the pointer was either spinning around, or it was motionless, even if it really pointed out a direction, they would not dare to follow it, in case they were completely lost In the depths of the jungle, that would really make the heavens and the earth ineffective.

"Don't worry, I can find a way." Hu Fenglin put away the locator, patted his chest and said, "Isn't it just to find the direction? It's a small matter. It will take a little time to ensure that we can go out before dark."

"This place is too close to the cave. When Cui Yong came back and found that the person was missing, he would definitely come out to look for it."

After learning about Hu Fenglin's location, it would take three to ten minutes at the fastest, Zhao Dong said immediately: "So, you start to find the direction now, Sister Ye takes care of the three little ones, and I will be in charge of guarding. As soon as Cui Yong appears, we will immediately Retreat, avoid him first."
