4. Overturning
As the trapstone fell, the heart-rending screams were also blocked outside the stone gate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The two stood in the dark for a short moment, and one of them was the first to touch the flint.
The firelight illuminated two frightened faces.
"Brother Che...... How so? What is that! ”
The other thought for a while, and still couldn't stop trembling: "Has everyone come down?" ”
"And Brother Jie, he went to steal the last few boats and stayed to light the fire."
"What?" When the man heard this, he turned around and ran to the other end of the dark passage, "Can't let him be alone outside!" I'm going to save him......"
Another person hurriedly reached out to stop: "Are you crazy?" If you go out, you'll definitely die! ”
The man didn't mean to listen, so the two walked silently through the dark passage.
Until he found the nearest exit, the man reached out and climbed the empty groove in the wall, and jumped to the exit in a few steps.
He expertly fumbled back and forth for a while, pulling open the dark lock, and as the plank pushed, a fresh cold wind poured in.
The man hesitated and turned around, and then instructed: "You must notify everyone as soon as possible, count the number of people, and then close the exit......"
"I see! Brother Che, you have to be careful, I'm here waiting for you to come back......"
"A quarter of an hour...... If you haven't seen me after a while, don't wait. ”
The man leapt onto the ground and walked out into the night, weaving his way through the darkness on both sides of the waterway with great skill, carefully avoiding the Green Fangs who had not yet noticed anything.
Despite this speed, it did not catch up with the sudden fire on the side of the estuary.
For a while, the Qingya guards turned their heads one after another, looking at the red light that soared into the sky, and gradually woke up.
The ship was gone, everyone was scattered and trapped in the city, and no trace of anyone else was found in the entire half-mile city, but a fire suddenly broke out at the southern estuary, and the smell of wood was clearly brought back by the sea breeze.
All this is like divine help, but when you think about it, it is man-made.
Before the leader could swallow the last sip of rice wine under the eaves, he was stuck in his throat by this sudden change.
He struggled to his feet and staggered behind him, but no one stepped forward to help, and turned his head in annoyance, and with a "sudden" sound, a long meat vine suddenly opened a hole in his mouth, and snaked all the way forward, plunging into the warm stomach of the wine and stirring back and forth.
The leader's still conscious eyes looked at everything behind him.
The monsters that dragged the meat vines and devoured the living, all dressed in the costumes of the Green Fang Guards.
The devoured person is like a clean skin bag, and not long after swallowing his breath, he shakes up again and vomits out another long vine.
No one had time to shout, and the plague-like situation seemed to ride the speed of the wind and quickly cleanse the entire city in the night.
No one heard the abnormal sound, but the fire light together, without a single sound, was just unbelievable.
Jieya threw away the last oil drum in his hand and turned to look at Banli City.
It's so quiet, doesn't anyone notice?
A crisp crackling sound sounded behind him, and the darkness of the city in the distance was as strong as the silence of the moment, so strong that it made people feel depressed.
The sea breeze stirred up a burst of sparks and rolled towards the shore, but the light was extinguished halfway through, as if it had suddenly encountered supercold air in the darkness, as if there was something evil ahead.
The strong wind slightly rolled back a trace of blood, and Jie Ya's heart suddenly tightened: "What the hell is this!" ”
He subconsciously turned his head, and not far behind him was the floodway of the half-mile city, hidden in the reef with fangs and claws, where not long ago it was a night like thick ink, but now it was lit up with sporadic firelight.
A figure suddenly appeared there, she smiled softly with the corners of her mouth covered, and then beckoned at the cliff.
Even after so many years of not seeing her, Jie Ya still recognized her at a sight.
"It's you...... How did you end up here! ”
He looked at the entrance of the tunnel, where the girl looked about the same age as when they were separated, and wore flowers in her bun that he had picked with his own hands.
She stood there with the lamp in her hands, as if waiting for him, and then she suddenly shouted, and the voice came from afar, but it was blown away by the sea breeze.
"Zixi! No way...... Why are you here! Answer me! Why are you ...... here?"
The cliffs run wildly through the sharp and piercing reefs.
On the other side of the rock, no one answered.
Many years ago, that bad little devil was pulling the girl's hand with a rogue face.
The person next to him was giggling and laughing, but in his eyes, there was only a pair of girls' eyes, just like what he suddenly saw in the mountain flowers not long ago, clear and clear, full of his heart.
He lifted a clumsy hand with a flower he had just picked on his fingertips.
An afternoon of running around the mountains just to pick the most beautiful flower.
He pinned it between the girl's buns: "Zixi, this is Tinglan, the day I met you, the mountains were full of Tinglan...... I'm going to be with you, and I'm going to be with you from today on, no matter how long it takes......"
"But why are you here?"
The call was blown off by the cold wind, and no matter how hoarse it was, no one answered.
In front of the dark and cold tunnel, there was nothing.
Dawn was fast approaching, but Half Mile City fell into dead silence once again.
Jieya stood here alone, watching the water that had risen in the middle of the night gradually reced.
Neither the people who came to him nor the people he was looking for were nowhere to be found.
They were all dead, leaving only the city with its corpses in tatters.
The sun rose all the way above the sea, and as soon as it pierced the clouds, it unveiled the tragedy of the night.
Jieya returned to the mouth of the sea in a trance, and when he looked down, the sea water around his waist was actually red, floating all the way down the waterway.
The child's corpse, with only half of its head, could just pass through the gate into the sea, and when it was pushed by the waves, it turned its head to look at him.
He looked back blankly, only to see countless stumps rushing in the direction of the ebbing tide, and then all of them stuck at the gate.
"How can this be......" he muttered in a trembling voice, turning and rummaging frantically through the crowd, "how can this be...... What's going on...... I don't believe it! I don't believe it! ”
He pulled away a disfigured, unrecognizable corpse with one hand, but never saw a familiar person.
The sea breeze blew a chill down the clothes.
"No matter what, you must live......"
The words in my head suddenly sounded.
"But, I'm alone, how can you and I live?"
