Chapter 157: Mirror
Under the floor tiles, how many years has this place been sealed?" Leng Rui said in a deep voice, stroking the surface of the iron door and finding a handle at the edge.
"I'll do it. Bingning pressed his shoulder and raised his black hand.
"No, be careful, in case anything happens. Leng Rui firmly grasped the handle and began to exert force, the steel plate was five or six hundred catties, very heavy, and Bingning was ready to respond at any time.
After the iron door was lifted, there was not a large space below, only about three or four square meters, and a huge object was placed in the middle, covered with a black cloth.
Several people glanced at each other, and they couldn't imagine what it could be that was so tightly hidden. "Do you have any impressions of this thing?" Leng Rui wanted to get some answers from Wang Ling, but seeing the latter's confused look, he pursed his lips and stopped asking.
It's more of a pit than a secret room. The surrounding walls are a layer of rough concrete, about three meters deep. Because the floor tiles covering the iron door were burned by the high temperature, there were some gaps on the sides that seeped some thin mud, which allowed Leng Rui to discover this place.
The annihilation realm stretched out, and the surrounding mud could not get close to this pit at all, Leng Rui carefully observed for a while and jumped down after not finding any danger.
Leng Rui carefully circled the thing twice, bent down and grabbed the corner of the black cloth, and lifted it up.
Sculpture, Portrait, or ......
What the three of them didn't expect was that there was a huge mirror on the side, after the black cloth was completely torn off, it also revealed its appearance, the delicate and soft frame made of metal was full of Omian style, and the height was almost the same as Leng Rui, which looked like a dressing mirror for a wealthy family's house.
Leng Rui looked at himself in the mirror, staring at himself with blue eyes, looking in the mirror in this environment, he always felt very weird.
"Who would put the mirror here?" Wang Ling and Bingning also jumped down, and the three people standing in the small pit were still a little crowded.
"Medium... Isn't there a saying in Chinese culture that Spiegel suppresses evil spirits, is this used to suppress something?"
"There are many places, especially in China, where this statement is true, but if I go to find out, it doesn't seem to have much concrete basis. Wang Ling said, "If it's really used for town, why bury it in this place? I feel as if it's more like it's sealed here, so that the floor has to be laid on top of it." β
"I'm thinking," Wang Ling stood in front of the mirror, staring at his shadow, "how does this shadow feel...... Not me?"
The dark circles under the eyes that appeared because of staying up late recently, a few acne that came out of the fire when eating on time, and the skin was a little dull and dull, these are all undoubted.
The only thing that made Wang Ling feel strange was that his eyes in the mirror looked so strange.
"What's wrong?" Bingning asked, leaning over.
"Look at me in the mirror, am I the one?"
Bing Ning looked carefully at the shadow in the mirror, turned her head to look at Wang Ling, and frowned, "It's exactly the same." β
"Eyes!" Leng Rui suddenly spoke, and precision helped him immediately find out that something was wrong, this discovery directly gave him goosebumps all over his body, and even directly raised the blade in his hand to the mirror.
Wang Ling's gaze was very decadent, without any brilliance, no matter how he looked at it, it looked like a frosted eggplant. He pointed to the mirror, "But the shadow in the mirror is not like that at all." β
Hearing Leng Rui say this, Bing Ning immediately went to look at it, and sure enough, she found that something was different.
"The shadow's eyes look ...... Very indifferent, it doesn't look like Wang Ling is looking at us at all, but..."Leng Rui thought for a moment, "but more like an apostle." β
Sometimes Wang Ling is really impressed by Leng Rui, he not only observes accurately, but also can summarize it very well. He actually has this feeling, looking at himself in the mirror, he always feels very infiltrating, and the self in the mirror seems to be glaring coldly at the three of them, as if he will make a move at any time.
"Wang Ling, Wang Ling!" Seeing that Wang Ling was approaching the mirror step by step, the two hurriedly called him loudly.
Wang Ling waved his hand and said that he didn't have to worry, he looked at this shadow that was exactly the same as his own movements, what was wrong, why did "he" have such eyes?
...... the hell Who is it......
Wang Ling's hand gradually touched the mirror, as if there was a force driving him, and a voice was calling him in.
Suddenly, a sharp pain came, Wang Ling subconsciously covered his arm, a wound was oozing blood, and Leng Rui was holding a bloody blade in his hand.
"What's going on?" Wang Ling was a little confused, as if he had suddenly lost consciousness just now.
"You just suddenly put your face against the mirror and sneered, no matter what we call you, it's useless. Leng Rui frowned and said, "We also want to ask you, what happened to you just now." β
"I don't know. β
What Wang Ling didn't tell them was that he suddenly thought of the hooded old man who often spoke in his head, could it be that the eyes of the shadow in the mirror were actually him?
"Do you feel it," Leng Rui pulled Wang Ling away from the mirror and looked at his eyes carefully, "Wang Ling's state is very much like a person." β
βbrodyγ Bing Ning immediately understood what Leng Rui meant, "Z's will is integrated into Brody's body, are you wondering, is there also two wills in Wang Ling's body?"
"It's not a suspicion, I'm just guessing. Leng Rui didn't get any useful information from Wang Ling's eyes, "After all, it's just, even if it was written by 'Wang Ling', judging from the content, in fact, Z's ability is very similar to that of a guide, whether it is a blood sacrifice or the promotion of the soul oracle, it is very similar." But there is never any record that a guide can enter into the body of another person in the form of a will. β
"What should we do now, the fire is already small, people from outside can come in at any time, we have to leave immediately, what to do with this mirror. β
"I think the best thing to do is to smash it, and to hell with it, whatever the oddities are. However, in that case, we will also lose this only clue at present, and we don't know whether it is the problem of the mirror itself or the problem of Wang Ling. But it's too big, so we should restore it to its original state now, it's already abandoned, and we can't get rid of this garbage anytime soon, so we can take it back at night. β
It can only be like this, Leng Rui wiped the blood on the blade casually, Wang Ling's wound has also begun to heal at this time, the three of them jumped out of the pit, re-closed the iron door, Bing Ning retracted the field of annihilation, and the mud immediately filled the place again, seeing any traces, and then the three of them quietly touched outside.
What they didn't know was that the drop of blood was falling on the surface of the mirror, and then the mirror suddenly flickered, and the drop of blood suddenly began to slowly disappear, as if it had been absorbed by the mirror.
Then, in the mirror where no one was looking, a vague figure appeared, wearing clothes like a hospital gown, looking like a child, the surrounding scene was not very clear, but it looked like a hospital room or a laboratory, with a large glass container behind it.
Soon, the image faded away, and darkness fell under the black cloth again, and a few seconds later, there was a clattering cracking sound in the pit and the sound of glass falling to the ground.
"What's wrong?" Leng Rui, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, looked in the direction of the library, and Bing Ning behind him asked when he saw this.
Leng Rui listened with his ears open for a while, "It's okay, I heard some strange sounds just now, but now it's gone." "The dance studio is shabby
Some of the tables and chairs were still burning, and the clatter was drowned out by the crackling sound of burning.
The smoke had faded a lot, and when I walked into the stairwell, the lights of the fire truck shone in, forming a curtain of light in the smoke, and if I went out, it was obvious that someone would be spotted.
"If you go out, you'll be discovered. Bingning leaned against the corner of the stairs and looked out, "There are soldiers in fireproof suits, they should be ready to clean up the mess, how do we get out." β
"I'll take a look," Leng Rui looked out from the elevator on the other side, "Under this kind of light, we have nowhere to hide, and going out directly is equivalent to running out and calling me a suspect." β
"Why don't we split up?" Wang Ling proposed, "I'm familiar with this education building, I'll lead them away, and then you run away." β
"What nonsense, you are a suspect now, these strange things are caused by you, and even this fire is inextricably related to you," Leng Rui said angrily, "Do you want to run out and say that you started this fire, and arrest you." β
Wang Ling was stunned for a moment, is his own thoughts really so easy to guess? He didn't even think about it himself, he did think that this world, which was completely different from his memory, maybe he could only return to normalcy if he left.
"You can be honest with me, I have a hunch that we should find the truth soon. After Leng Rui finished speaking, he raised his hand, and there were three thin blades between his fingers.
"What are you going to do?" Bingning asked, "Actually, I can use annihilation to open a hole in this wall to get out." β
"......" Leng Rui had a black line, "Can you not be so violent, if you do that, this fire will become a supernatural event, look at me." β
Leng Rui checked again, the precision had been pushed to the limit by him, his fingers trembled slightly, and the non-existent forward lines were drawn in his mind.
"That's it!" he flicked his hand diagonally in the direction of the outside, and the three blades flew out in an instant. It is this seemingly very simple action, if you slow down a thousand times, you will find that the time when Leng Rui's fingers are released is quietly staggered, and every time the blade flies out, his wrist will change position.
The three blades flew out at completely different speeds, and in just an instant, the three blades had already completed their collision with each other in the air, and the last blade flew out of the staircase with unimaginable speed and a direction far away from the original angle.
Yikes!
"The water pipe is broken!"
