Juliana’s workshop Chapter 23: Stories heard by Julius

　　 Julius has been following Lei for a long time. He was behind Lei, holding a torch high, illuminating the surrounding space, so that Lei could see the road ahead and lead him forward. Although he has been to the sewers many times, he is not a newcomer who has just arrived underground, but in front of Lei, he is still as green as stunned.

　　 Now the two of them have left the narrow pipe. When they left the pipe, they fell from mid-air. When he fell on the ground, Julius felt his shoes step on the water, which made the soles of his shoes soaked. When he turned around, he saw the outlet on the wall, with water flowing down, dampening the wall below. He and Lei came down from here.

　　 Julius has not walked this road. Since Lei brought him here, Lei should know this place. "Where is this place?" Julius asked, turning around and looking around.

　　 The place where he and Lei fell is a large space. The ground is a very shallow layer of water. If you look down, you can see the water sparkling under the light of the fire. It looks beautiful, but Julius is only worried about whether the water will be dirty, and if the foot is accidentally cut, will it become infected. He moved his nose, the air here is not good, and the smell of the water under his feet has also spread under his nose. The water is definitely not clean, it has a smell of decay...but it seems that it hasn't reached there yet. Kind of degree.

　　 "Don't step on anything weird." Lei said to Julius, "It would be bad if you make a noise."

　　 "What will you step on?" Julius asked.

　　"It may be a snake, or it may be a toad...Anyway, they are all things that like to live in water, slippery and slippery, very disgusting."

　　For Julius, this is not something you can rest assured, "Will it be poisonous?"

　　Lei shrugged and shook her head, "If it is poisonous, I won't be here. If you are poisoned in this kind of place, you really can only wait to die. Don't worry, don't poisonous things. Will appear in this kind of place, you have to go deeper underground to encounter it."

　　 "You can't reassure me at all." Julius said, "Because you are leading me to the depths."

　　 "Because something is worth the risk." Lei turned her head and smiled at Julius, "If you are scared, then turn around-but without you, I can probably only look back, I don't dare Go further by yourself."

　　Lei did not scare Julius, nor did she intend to intimidate Julius to go with her. She was telling the truth, and she could only go back without Julius. If you want to move forward, the two will go together, and if you want to go back, the two will also go back together.

　　 Julius sighed, raised the torch high, illuminating the space around Lei and her, "Go ahead... I can only rely on you to eat a bite."

　　 "Thank you, bodyguard." Lei smiled.

　　 The two walked forward on the water. After leaving the exit, Julius found that the space they were in was unexpectedly large. If you compare Rat Road, this place is much more spacious than Rat Road. At least the light from the torch in his hand cannot illuminate everything around him. It turned into a ball of light and enveloped him and Lei, and the area further out was still pitch black. He couldn't see how high the ceiling was above his head, maybe he had already seen it, but the darkness really couldn't make people think that it was the ceiling.

　　 "Where are we?" Julius asked.

　　 "Shallow water area." Lei replied, "A lot of water from the surrounding pipes has flowed around here, and then it turned into this look... You have to be careful not to slip in such a place. Otherwise, you will regret it from the bottom of your heart. If you accidentally eat the water under your feet, haha.” Speaking of this, Lei couldn’t help but laughed out, “How would it feel to be drenched in **** and urine? Then you can experience it."

　　 Julius heard Lei’s words, frowning with disgust, thinking about the water under his feet...or maybe it was an unknown liquid, his throat began to squirm, and he felt something coming out of his stomach. coming. "This is disgusting."

　　 "There is something more disgusting than this below." Lei laughed, "It's good to be used to it, it's better than not having to eat anything, just picking up trash to eat, right?"

　　 Lei’s words made Julius unable to refute. As Lei said, compared to this trivial matter, not being able to eat is the most terrible thing. And the reason why the two of them can still eat and make a little money now is because the two of them never cared whether they were **** or urine. It's disgusting, but as long as the things under your feet are still under your feet, not on your lips, that's enough.

　　 The two walked forward for a long time. The space seemed to be endless. Julius could not see the end of the road ahead with the torch in his hand. Julius only felt that he was walking on a path that was not straight, but slightly curved, as if walking in an arc-shaped passage. The surrounding walls are already mottled and broken, and you can't see the original appearance. Julius doesn't know how old this place is, and in such a dark and humid place, it can't be seen what era they belong to. And Julius thought he couldn't see it, he was just a semi-illiterate who was still barely able to read, and he was still trying to write down what Pasta had taught him. It was a headache, but thinking about Lulunaka's smiling face, he felt that it was better to have a headache than to be tortured by her.

　　 "I heard someone say at the Rat Road before that the underground was habitable." Julius said, "But it was destroyed because of the war, and the residents who lived in the underground were also driven there. The underground of the mountains to the west."

　　"Are you going to listen to the old crazy man talking nonsense again?" Lei chuckled, "In Rat Road, you who have just come here are also interested in listening to the crazy old man telling some strange stories. And also. Only you will believe him: the people in the underground and the people on the ground have conflicts, and finally the underground becomes an inhabitable cave. Since then, there is no more underground city Inside...I can hear this kind of story. ."

　　 "Don't you think this story is interesting?" Julius said, "At least it's much more interesting than the stories about expelling underground monsters."

　　"But the stories about expelling monsters will always change, and there will always be the latest version. Underground dragons, underground snakes, underground steel golems..." Lei elaborated on the stories about the underground," It’s much more interesting than that old madman’s never-changing story, right?"

　　 "Do you like those amazing stories too?" Julius asked.

　　Lei shook her head, "I don't have the time to listen to stories that drunks and children would like."

　　 "But you are still a child."

　　 "You have to rely on me as a kid to eat now, don't forget this."

　　 "You have to rely on my protection, child."

　　 Julius and Lei occasionally had such a quarreling behavior. It was not because of a bad relationship, but because they became familiar with each other and became less restrained.

　　 "Then which stories do you believe are the underground dragon, or the version of the underground empire of the crazy old man in your mouth?" Julius continued to ask.

　　Lei was walking in front, a pair of small feet lifted and stepped in the water~IndoMTL.com~ There was a sound of water, "You are very interested in this. Is this important?"

　　 "I'm just a little curious."

　　 "Soon you won't be curious about it." Lei said, "And you will soon get tired of that crazy old man's nonsense... There will always be a process of getting used to it. Just like me. , I heard it since I was a child, and now I can’t listen to it anymore, I will run away every time."

　　 "He is an interesting person." Julius said.

　　 "It's a poor old man." Lei said, and then laughed, "But I am not qualified to say that others are poor."

　　At this time, the two finally reached the end of this shallow water area. In front of the two of them, there was a semicircular entrance standing on the ground, and an iron fence sealed the entrance. Lei walked to the iron gate carried by the fence, reached out to grab the lock with the iron chain and shook it. The iron chain and the lock knocked on the fence, making a loud sound, echoing in the dark. "If it was before, we probably wouldn't be able to get in." Lei said, "but this time it's different." She took a key out of her pocket and inserted it in. With a click, the lock was opened. She hung the lock and iron chain on it and opened the iron door. "This is a VIP channel. We didn't have a chance to get in before."

　　 "You said that this kind of road is only safer, but there is nothing to pick up at all." Julius said.

　　 "Of course, the safer the place, the less valuable things. But these safe paths can save us a lot of time." Lei said, "I will find a way for those guys to find a way to the new Regional roads, and I can pass through these places that I usually can’t go through for free...that’s enough.” Lei beckoned to Julius, “Go, it’s time to venture deeper.”
