C369 The Mysterious Old Man(part I)

"Bang!"

As soon as he stepped through the door, a loud sound immediately rang out from behind him. The sound of the door closing produced a long echo in the empty corridor, causing one's ears and drums to feel somewhat numb.

After spitting out a smoke ring, Faang Xuan laughed at himself and continued to walk forward.

The corridor was very humid, and the air was filled with a moldy smell. The walls were even covered with moss. When the door was closed, the entire corridor became somewhat stuffy, and the lights were extremely dim.

The long pathway served as a light source. The dim yellow light bulbs that were extremely small in number were placed 20 meters away. If it weren't for Faang Xuan's extraordinary eyesight, he wouldn't have been able to move forward in such a dark and damp tunnel.

The corridor seemed to have no end. Faang Xuan remembered that he had made at least ten turns. The path he had taken was probably no less than a thousand meters, but he still didn't feel like he was about to reach the end. However, what shocked him was that at this moment, in the damp and moldy air... Suddenly, a strong smell of rotting corpses was added into the air, making him feel nauseous and nauseous.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Faang Xuan stopped in his tracks and gathered his ears. At the end of the tunnel, which was getting darker and darker, there seemed to be some sound coming from it.

"Hehehehe..."

All of a sudden, that strange sound suddenly became clear. The dark tunnel was like a gust of chilly wind that blew past, causing people's hair to stand on end.

Was it laughter?

A horrifying and miserable laugh that was like a malicious spirit?

"Ghost?"

After a moment of shock, a strong light flashed in Faang Xuan's eyes. Every cell in his body seemed to be burning. "Haha... I've never seen anything supernatural in my two lives. Do you want to see the world today? "

Raising his foot, Faang Xuan did not hesitate any longer and ran straight towards the end of the rotten and dark passageway.

"Stop joking, Faang Xuan. In this world, what kind of thing do you mean by that? What kind of god or ghost is that? It's just a boring imagination of you humans. Do you really believe it?"

Sensing the excitement in Faang Xuan's heart, the Junyao poured cold water on him.

Of course, Faang Xuan understood that the saying of ghosts and gods was absurd and untrustworthy. However... Along the way, the environment was gloomy, and there wasn't even the slightest sound. Under the extreme boredom and depression, he wished that a ghost would really appear. It was better than being suppressed all the time.

"Tsk, I want you to say, who cares about others or ghosts, it's better than a person walking around blindly, right?"

While talking nonsense with the Junyao, Faang Xuan raised his vigilance, and wind blew under his feet. A few curved lines flashed past in a row, and finally, a strong suffocating smell of rotting corpses assaulted him. He flashed out from another corner, and his entire person stood there like a stone statue. The expression on his face was one of shock and silence.

What was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?

What did he mean by a sea of corpses?

Two very common adjectives were easy to describe, but how could modern people have truly seen a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?

Even if he was an assassin in his previous life and had personally gone to the Middle East battlefield, the battlefield that he thought was already very bloody and terrifying was nothing compared to the scene in front of him.

In front of Faang Xuan was a square that was at least a thousand square meters wide. It was oval shaped, and there were a few small holes at the top of the tall square that were probably used for ventilation. A few small incandescent lamps hung on electrical wires, emitting a pale light.

What shocked Faang Xuan was the broken limbs that he could not even look at.

The huge space was filled with a layer of blood mist that didn't dissipate. The sparkling light emitted by the incandescent lamps. It was an indescribable color that fell on the ground through the blood mist. It was the concrete ground. Broken arms and corpses were scattered everywhere. The tall mountain of corpses was like a sea of blood. Together, they formed an extremely shocking pool of scarlet blood.

Inside the pool of blood, the blood, which had no idea how deep it was, would occasionally bubble with an unpleasant smell. The red threads floated out of the broken bubbles and merged into the blood fog. Because of the sealed space, the red clouds would become thicker and thicker. It caused the square to have a strange dreamlike state, but it also felt like hell.

Smelling a nauseating smell, listening to the gurgling sound by one's ear, if one's mental fortitude wasn't deep, one would probably be shocked to death on the spot.

"Damn those people from the Little R Country. Just how many people are there? Can they withstand such a death?"

Standing in the midst of the blood mist, Faang Xuan lit up a cigarette. He used Nicholas's suffocating smoke to try to suppress the stink of the rotting corpse. Unfortunately, after taking a few deep breaths, the smell of the rotting corpse... It still lingered in his nose like a maggot. It made him feel uncomfortable.0

"Hehe, young man, you're the second person I've seen in all these years to be able to remain calm. Not bad, young people nowadays, their psychological qualities are getting stronger and stronger..."

Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded like a blunt knife scratching a disk. It made people's heart feel like it was being scratched by a cat.

Not far away, there was a tall mountain of corpses, surrounded by blood. A skinny old man, who was so thin that only a piece of skin was left, sat on the ground. His withered face seemed to have a monstrous rosy color. At this moment, he was blooming with a bright and warm smile towards Faang Xuan.

"I don't understand. Is the life force of humans really that tough?"

Faang Xuan wasn't surprised by the sudden voice of the old man, because the moment he entered the square, he had already discovered the existence of the old man. However, the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood were truly magnificent. It made Faang Xuan instinctively ignore his existence.

"Hehe, young man, it is fate that we meet. Can you give this old man a cigarette? I haven't smelled a cigarette for so many years. It's strange to see you smoke."

The old man licked his lips. His dry and shriveled Adam's apple wriggled as Faang Xuan contentedly breathed in and out smoke. It could be seen that this old man was also a smoker in the past.

Faang Xuan touched his clothes and took out a pack of Treasure Road cigarettes from one of his pockets. It was not expensive, but it was the best cigarette he could find in the streets of Chiyoda.

A pack of unsealed Wanbao Road and a lighter. Faang Xuan casually tossed it at the old man. "You can smoke slowly. I won't disturb you anymore."

Faang Xuan looked around. After making sure that there was no exit, he turned around and prepared to return the way he came.

Ever since he saw the square, Faang Xuan had a vague guess. He had taken the wrong path. This was merely the place where the abnormal people from the R Country dumped their corpses after their failed experiments. It seemed like he had to go back to the base and choose a new door.

As for why a strange old man appeared in this place, Faang Xuan didn't have the slightest desire to find out. This was also in line with his personality, regardless of his past life of killing. And he's a rich man in this life, and he's never been a curious man.

"Don't, young man, don't be in a hurry to leave. This old man hasn't seen a living person in a long time. Accompany this old man and chat..."

The old man had lit a cigarette at this moment. He took a few deep breaths. When he saw that Faang Xuan wanted to leave without any hesitation, he immediately shouted anxiously.

"I'm sorry. I don't have the habit of chatting with people who eat dead meat and drink the blood of dead people. That would make me feel so uncomfortable that I would want to throw up."

He turned around just like that, but Faang Xuan's attitude was firm. Leaving behind a pack of cigarettes was already the greatest mercy. He wanted to stay behind and accompany half a step into the soil. It was unknown how many dead people he had eaten to chat with. Just thinking about it gave him goosebumps all over his body.

"Hehe, young man, if you are willing to stay, I will tell you a secret." Seeing Faang Xuan walking further and further away, the old man threw out his bargaining chip.

"Save it, a secret. I will leave it to you to bring into the coffin!"

"If I tell you that I'm the chief designer of this base, will you be willing to stay?"

Faang Xuan paused for a moment. Then he turned around and smiled. "If you dare lie to me, I'll take back the pack of cigarettes."

The reason why he didn't say a more forceful threat was that given the old man's current situation, his life had already become a torment. If Faang Xuan said that he could pinch him to death, the old man would be extremely grateful.

Although he knew that Faang Xuan was just saying it, the old man still nervously put away the Myriad Treasure Road. Together with the lighter, he put it into the tattered clothes on his body that he couldn't see his true appearance clearly. After that, he looked at Faang Xuan with a look of anticipation. "Really, I really didn't lie to you. The entire base. There's nothing that I don't know. You have to believe me. Eight years ago, I was the chief engineer here. I was in charge of all the research projects in the base. "

He didn't get too close to the old man, but when the old man said this, Faang Xuan's face was filled with hatred. "Chief Engineer? So, all the corpses here were caused by you? "

"This... Hehe, young man, I'm just a scientist, regarding political matters, how can I be qualified to speak? The higher-ups have decided on a plan to conduct experiments on living people, and they have chosen me as their leader. Other than choosing to obey, do I have any other options?"

Faang Xuan couldn't get used to the strong smell of rotting corpses. He lit a new cigarette, but he didn't have a good impression of this old man who was obviously paralyzed.

Just by looking at the scale of the square, it could be inferred how many ordinary people had died in the hands of this old man. Although he could say that these were not his original intention, as a chess piece, he had also committed a grave crime.

"Young man, since I'm already so old, can you do me a favor?"

The old man's face suddenly darkened, and his habitually flattering smile disappeared. He slowly looked at Faang Xuan, and his hoarse voice became more and more terrifying. "I really don't want to live like this anymore. I beg you. Young man, can you kill me?"

"Kill you?"
