Chapter 31: Bones
I stared at my watch, every second passed very slowly, the cold bench seemed very tired, and after a while, I fell asleep against the wall again. The younger brother was in a good mood, humming a little song while packing his luggage, took out the beef jerky he had treasured all the way, divided two for me, kept two for himself, and stuffed the rest into the cold bench pocket, saying that he had put a lot of blood and had to make up for it.
I looked at the cold bench, and suddenly my heart jumped, and I had an indescribable feeling that we met in Pingshui, and we said that we were partners all the way, but I did almost nothing with my junior brother, and it was difficult to protect myself, it was he who took us all the way, and saved our lives several times, and being with him, it would even give me the illusion that he was the senior brother.
Master often said that the greater a person's ability, the greater the responsibility on his body. Although I am a senior brother, but I ask myself, I have not fulfilled the responsibilities of a senior brother over the years, all the tasks are done by me and my junior brother, we have our own division of labor, cooperation, I did not share anything more for my junior brother, but the junior brother took care of me a lot in daily life; In terms of business, I was even lazier, too lazy to deal with those vendors who had to compete with each other, too lazy to rub shoulders with customers, and even for a while, I almost lost the ability to communicate with living people, and could only live in this circle that I was familiar with since I was a child, but my junior brother never complained about me. What exactly is responsibility for me, and what should I be responsible for? I don't think I've ever thought about that......
"Senior brother, you have to look again, the little master should see the hole in his face." The junior brother said suddenly, I came back to my senses, and I saw the cold bench open his eyes, his eyes were very light, and he didn't look at me, and then he got up, moved a human ghost, and told us to go down. I looked at my watch, and it was exactly twenty minutes, and it was exactly the same.
It's still the junior brother who takes the lead, I am the second, and the last one to come down is the cold bench. As soon as my feet touched the ground, I heard a few crunch sounds, as if something was stepped on by me, and when I looked down, damn it, my back immediately broke out in a layer of cold sweat, and under the soles of my feet was actually a thick layer of white bones, with arms, legs, and ribs!
"Holy!" The junior brother lifted his foot and swept forward with a flashlight, the white bones were dense, countless, pressing one by one, layer by layer, and he couldn't see the bottom or the head at all. The junior brother sizzled and said, "I said, it turns out that my body is hidden here." ”
I understood, "You mean, this is the body of those ghosts up there?" ”
"Or else?" The junior brother squatted down, picked up a broken rib casually, and sighed: "Attack on Titan? ”
The cold bench also squatted down at some point, holding a rib in his hand, and looked back and forth: "This is not a person, it is a ghost monkey." ”
My heart groaned, my legs suddenly went limp, and I almost didn't sit on the ground, and when I thought of this dense broken bone, it was a ghost monkey with no head, my scalp exploded, but then I thought, "That's not right...... That person obviously has hair on his head, and his size is no different from that of a normal human, how can it be a ghost monkey? ”
The cold bench stared at the ribs in his hand and didn't speak, probably because he didn't understand it, and the junior brother continued: "Maybe it...... It hasn't opened yet, or maybe it's another breed, with a small head and a big body, and it likes to have long hair. As he spoke, the junior brother made a hair-ruffling motion, looking very obscene.
I thought about it, although I didn't agree with my brother's statement, but I really couldn't think of a better reason, this place gave me a very bad feeling, worse than when I was in the underground river, probably because of the relationship between these corpses, I always felt that this place was heavy, cold sweat broke out on my back, and I was always itchy. I said, "Forget it, don't worry about it so much, let's find the book first, and then withdraw." ”
"It's fine." The younger brother got up, threw away the ribs in his hand with a flick of his hand, and with a crisp sound on the ground, the bones shattered into two pieces. The junior brother paused: "Oh, naughty." ”
My heart was beating so hard that I glared at him, "Be careful, don't make a mess." The junior brother rubbed behind me in two steps, and suddenly pressed against my ear and said, "Senior brother, are you afraid of ghosts......
My heart trembled, and then I shivered, not that I was really afraid of ghosts, but that this place was really exciting...... I made up my mind and pushed my junior brother away: "Don't mess ......" but this kid didn't listen to me at all, but kicked his nose and face, and began to blow cold air on the back of my neck. I was annoyed and frustrated, and raised my hand to push him hard: "I told you not to mess around!" ”
"Senior brother...... Who are you talking to......
I was stunned, and my heart suddenly skipped a beat, and the voice ...... It's from the front?! I looked up suddenly, and I saw my junior brother and the cold bench standing about three or four meters away from me, with many scrolls hanging from their heads, and one of them was still holding one in his hand, probably just taken off before he had time to look at it. Now, the two men were looking at me with a look of astonishment.
My heart was pounding so hard that it was about to jump out of my throat, what's the matter, I'll just say this place is fucking evil. I didn't dare to move, my right palm was full of sweat, and I was pinching my hand on the shoulder that I thought was my junior brother's shoulder, but now I don't know what it is. I winked at the cold bench and slashed at my brother and sister, and if they could see what I was holding, they would slash it for me, but if they didn't see anything, it would be troublesome.
"Senior brother...... What's wrong with your hand? Sifting chaff, shaking so much? The junior brother smiled a little stiffly, slowly touched his waist with one hand, and came towards me, "A monkey on the tree, a monkey on the top, ask, how many monkeys are there?" ”
I sighed in my heart, damn, there's one more on top of my head? Why the hell don't I even feel anything? The junior brother squeezed his eyes at me, signaling me not to startle the monkey, keep my posture and don't move, in fact, I can't move at all, my legs are already weak.
The younger brother and the cold bench moved quickly, one after the other, I only heard an extremely harsh strange scream, a ball of ball-sized things fell into the corner, I turned my face to see, it was really a miniature version of the black-haired monkey, long arms and legs, the head was only the size of a fist, and the two fangs were particularly sharp, hanging on the shoulder. I couldn't help but touch the top of my head, and I was afraid for a while, if this fucking gouge on a person's head, it would definitely be opened.
The cold bench pulled the dagger out of the ghost monkey's neck, and before the person could stand up, he was knocked down by a screaming black ball, and the junior brother ran over in a panic: "It's a big one, I didn't catch it!" ”
