Chapter 13: The Hall of Lost Souls
But I couldn't pull him, I was pulling him like a mountain, my heart sank, and I had a bad premonition in my body.
Hold your breath, turn around slowly, and hold the handsome handsome, the palms are already full of cold sweat, what's wrong with him in the back?
The handsome man froze in place, and the eyes that were left stared straight at me.
"Dashuai......" I broke out in a cold sweat, incoherent, and didn't know what to say, but Dashuai didn't pay attention to me at all, but stared at my eyes like a starving ghost staring at a cake. The whole figure looked ready to pounce on me at any moment.
I wanted to let go of his hand, leave him alone, and go out first. However, I found that now he was holding me tightly, and no matter how I broke free, he held my hand tightly, and it was over! I thought silently in my heart, but I didn't expect to end up falling prey to the handsome.
He began to smile and pulled me hard towards him.
"Dashuai, what do you want to do......" I cried: "I helped you all the way, you won't harm me, right......" I had the opportunity to beg for mercy, and at the same time I put my hands together, trying to push Dashuai's hand away, but it was useless, he pulled me very tightly......
The handsome man didn't seem to hear me at all, his eyes became hotter and hotter, as if everything was falling into place, he suddenly pulled me hard, and pulled my eyes with his other hand......
My mind went blank, instinctively shielded it with my hands, grabbed a fluffy mass in a panic, and at that critical moment, I didn't think much about it at all, I closed my eyes in fright, and after grabbing it, I stood between him and me.
It wasn't until I heard the screams of animals struggling that I slowly opened my eyes, and saw a fluffy puppy in my hand, with a blood-red hole in the white fur of its face, and as soon as it broke free from my palm, it ran away in a panic.
"Ruolan, I'm sorry......" Da Shuai touched his eyes while avoiding my gaze from time to time.
He actually put the dog's eyes in his own sockets. One of the eyes was round and black, like a button, how awkward to look at.
"Let's go!" Da Shuai suddenly came to his senses and pulled me to the middle of the stage.
Really. The color of the place in front of it was different, and the circle seemed to be slightly red.
We looked at the scene of "cannibalism" around us and walked carefully to the center, but the closer we got, the more we discovered. It's just redness on the ground, and it doesn't seem like there's any mechanism to open, so how can I get out?
As soon as I stood in the red circle, the whole world turned white in an instant, all of them were white, and my piercing eyes couldn't be opened. Strangely, no sound could be heard in my ears, and the cries and screams of the people before disappeared all at once.
Fortunately, the eyes can gradually adjust to the light, or the white fog around them gradually dissipates. In short, slowly start to see clearly.
What's going on? It's still the same place as before, it's still this courtyard, but no one is gone, and the original bloodstained ground has become neat and clean, and it is impossible to see that there was a massacre here before.
Hey? There were so many people around me, and I jerked back, and my memory of the procession of people with broken chains that I had seen behind the scenes.
It took me a few seconds to fully see that it was really a team. They lined up here on the stage, and the line was long, almost all the way to the wall, just. They are quiet and disciplined, and besides, the people here are not missing arms or legs, they are all complete people.
Not only has the environment become cleaner, but the stage has disappeared from before. The original appearance of the gazebo was restored, and the source of the line seemed to be in the gazebo, and I curiously walked over to see what they were doing in line.
"** Temple"? There is a sign hanging on the pavilion, and the sign is written with the three words "** Palace", and there is a well below the word, and the boiling spring water is coming out of the well, and there is a layer of white mist on it.
It turned out that everyone was queuing up to drink water, and those who finished drinking went straight out in the direction of the gate.
Only then did I notice that the door was open at this moment. But I didn't seem to want to go out, and suddenly I felt so thirsty!
Oh, yes! Thinking about it carefully, I haven't drunk half a mouthful of water all the way, and at this moment, when I see the boiling spring water in the well, I can't help but swallow my saliva and want to drink more! Even if it's poison, the so-called "drinking water to quench thirst" is my state of mind at the moment, not only the throat, esophagus, stomach, intestines, etc., but I just feel that every cell in the body is shouting, they want to drink water!
The people at the mouth of the well, after drinking, went out the door, and then drank in the next one, in such an orderly order, that I couldn't help but run to the end of the line, and also lined up, just to take a sip......
Hey? Isn't the one in front of me a big handsome? And I found another problem, the people here are all complete, although the big handsome's eyes are made up with dog eyes, but his leg is still lame, the sole of one foot is missing, and a small piece of white bone is still exposed at the ankle.
"Dashuai, what's going on here?" I asked in a low voice, because it was extremely quiet here, and they didn't communicate with each other, so I also unconsciously whispered to the big handsome.
However, the handsome man didn't look back, so he turned his back to me and said lightly: "Drink water."
He didn't seem to want to talk to me. After he finished speaking, I was silent, and like everyone else, I obediently lined up in the line, moving forward little by little with the team.
"Dashuai, why are you the only one missing a foot? Are people all good? I couldn't help but ask. Because I found that many people in the team were familiar, they were all audience members or actors who had performed magic tricks in the courtyard before, but they all found the missing organs in their bodies and made up for them, all of them were complete people, only Dashuai was different.
"Because my foot is not injured in this world", Dashuai replied to me absent-mindedly, his attitude seemed extremely impatient.
I didn't have the heart to think about it anymore, because as the team got closer and closer, I could already smell the smell of the spring water, a faint fragrance, cold and cold, and I swallowed desperately, to the point of heartburn, and I wanted to plunge headlong into the well.
Soon it was the turn of the marshal, and he took the wooden spoon by the well, and scooped a large spoonful into the well, and the spring water in the spoon was also billowing and flowing, and the white mist was shrouded on it. Da Shuai carefully put it to his mouth and drank it down, without wasting a drop.
Da Shuai wiped his mouth with his sleeve, put down the wooden spoon, limped forward, and disappeared into the fog at the door......
When it was my turn, the well was like a hot pot, and there was a raging fire burning underneath, so the water in the well was so tumbling, and it was still steaming all the time, but ...... This is not heat, I leaned over to the well, but felt a coolness, although I haven't drunk it yet, but with my nose, I can know that this water must be very sweet, I don't want so much, scoop a spoonful first!
Pick up the wooden spoon next to it, gently scoop up a spoonful slowly, but the water in the spoon is still boiling, the bottom of the spoon is not heated, but why is the water in it always boiling? And something like heat is always at the top of the water, as if it were a hat, buckled to the water,
Looking up at the sky, I looked at the three big characters that were written on the top of the pavilion, which happened to be directly above the well, and the ...... Could the water in the well be ** water? If it's not ** water, why are the fierce crowds just now willing to line up for drinking water, not fighting or grabbing?
But at this moment my throat seemed to have thousands of little ants crawling, dry and itchy, and I couldn't help but breathe into the well, wanting to let the mist suck into my throat, and let the dry and burning throat inhale as much sweet and refreshing water vapor as possible.
I can't take it anymore! Just like an addict who sees that little bit of drug when he is addicted, his brain is blank, and he returns to the most primitive ** of human beings, the simplest giving, without thinking about it, he drinks the water in the spoon in his hand and drinks it all, leaving no drop.
The fire of irritability in my heart was extinguished in an instant, and from the second of the entrance, it seemed that the soul had been thoroughly cleansed, even if there was more unwillingness and reluctance before, I put it down one by one at this moment, just like I put down the wooden spoon, completely let go!
Looking at the only exit in front of me, I wanted to get out of here at that time, but the door was locked, and I was allowed to escape and struggle in the blood rain. And at this moment I was strolling out the door, and I didn't have much joy in my heart, as if everything was arranged in the dark, and it didn't matter whether I was happy or sad.
I remember that outside the yard was a small village, and the people in the village were the ones who had escaped from the dogs and chickens. However, at this moment, when I walked out of the gate of the courtyard, there were no villages and towns at all, but a vast land, as if boundless, and I could not see any pedestrians.
I looked back again, there was no yard and nothing, and I was surrounded by an endless land, and the whole sky was covered with dark clouds, and I couldn't even see what the road was under my feet. It's like being thrown in the center of the ocean, surrounded by the endless sea, has the world abandoned me? I can only go forward, all the way forward......
I couldn't hear the sound, I couldn't see the sky, it was all gray, and the road was cloudy.
There seemed to be sunlight in front of me, and although it was blocked by thick clouds, it was no longer so dim and began to brighten, and I quickened my pace, trying to get out of this gray haze as soon as possible.
Just like the white mist in the well, at a glance, the black mist faded away, revealing a piece of white flowers, although it was clear, but I still couldn't see anything, like walking into a sauna field, only to see the clouds and mist, but not the person opposite.
But I'd better speed forward, no matter what, it's better than the dark and weird sky!
There seems to be a majestic building in the fog? (To be continued.) )
