Chapter 15: The Beauty Grass in the Sewers
In the sewers, it was pitch black all around, Xingle frowned, and whispered, "Uncle, it's so dark here, can you find the way?"
"Yes, I can close my eyes, I was beaten by my parents when I was a child, so I ran away from home and stayed here for two days. ”
The middle-aged uncle came faintly from behind.
"What do the Awakened usually do, fight monsters?"
"Hmm. Xingle was perfunctory, and said: "Uncle, find something to illuminate." ”
The sewers of the city are cold and damp, and the smell is stinking, and Xingle has already overdrawn his mental strength, but now it is really dark in front of him, and he has a strong sense of suffocation.
"I really don't know where these monsters came from, I heard that last time a monster ate all the people in a bar, I don't know where they hide during the day, they only come out at night. ”
The middle-aged uncle took out a small flashlight as he spoke, the miniature kind, hanging on the key chain, and the light could only shoot out two meters away.
"Monsters, maybe just hide in the sewers, haha......"
Xingle whispered and laughed.
"Little brother, don't scare me!" The middle-aged uncle was really a little scared, and his voice was trembling.
"Hey, just kidding, kidding. ”
Xingle snorted, his brows furrowed even tighter, he wasn't joking.
As soon as he entered the sewer, he realized that something was wrong, and he felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart, that he should be targeted by something.
It was the same feeling he had ever felt when he had faced alien creatures in Awakening.
deliberately said that to the middle-aged uncle, and also gave him a preventive shot in advance.
"Uncle, what is your surname?"
It was hard to be stared at by the unknown, and Xingle began to find something to say.
"Little brother, my surname is Wu, Wu Youde. ”
"Uncle Wu, just call me Xiaole. Lead the way, and I'll follow you. ”
Xingle's hand holding the hose began to sweat, and the feeling of unease became stronger and stronger.
"Mmmm, Xiaole, don't worry, Uncle will definitely take you out. ”
After Wu Youde finished speaking, he walked in front of Xingle and walked forward with a small flashlight.
There was water on the ground of the sewer, and the footsteps of the two people were very clear, echoing in the small space, which was extremely eerie.
After walking for about ten minutes, Wu Youde suddenly stopped, took a small flashlight to both sides, and said:
"There should be a door here, huh?"
"Misremember, let's step back a little and see if we've walked through. ”
Xingle also saw clearly, there was indeed no way ahead, so he proposed.
"Good. Wuyoude turned around and walked back.
Xingle also turned around and followed, and after walking twenty or thirty meters, he saw Wu Youde stop again.
"Well, the door is here. I haven't been here for a long time, so it's a bit negligent. ”
"Click~"
A somewhat dilapidated iron door was pushed open by Wu Youde.
"Ahh
The moment the iron door was pushed open, Wu Youde screamed, and the small flashlight fell to the ground.
"What's wrong?" Xingle stepped forward and raised the hose.
"Someone, I saw a figure flash when the door opened. ”
"Like...... It's a woman. ”
"This ...... How can there be anyone here!?"
Wu Youde was very flustered, and his voice was trembling again.
"I'll go ahead, Uncle Wu, you follow me. ”
Xingle walked forward slowly, and had no choice but to start using his perception again, but his head was dizzy, and he felt like it was exploding, so he had to stop quickly.
"Mmmm, you're an Awakened One, and the demons and monsters are afraid of you. ”
At this time, Wu Deyi did not forget to find a reason for his timidity.
"There is light ahead, Uncle Wu, you wait for me here, I'll go and have a look. ”
Five minutes later, Xingle suddenly saw a faint glimmer of light from the corner in front of him, and turned his head and said in a small voice.
The light is pale blue, fluorescent, and it looks a bit dreamy.
Xingle slowed down and continued walking, ready to see where the eyes came from.
The blue fluorescence gradually became clear, and Xingle walked around the corner and stuck his head out against the wall to look over.
The eyes are full of blue, like a dream.
This was Xingle's first feeling when he saw the vision.
It's weird and deep, and it's creepy.
This is Xingle's second sense when he sees the vision clearly.
The blue fluorescence is emitted by the tip of a small grass that grows on the ground, and it is densely packed throughout the space.
What makes Xingle creepy is also the tip of this grass, but the top that looks like a sunflower is a human face with closed eyes, which looks very weird and has a bewitching beauty.
There are blood vessels on the grass stalks and leaves, and you can see blood flowing inside.
What's even weirder is that there is a pitch-black egg-like thing next to this grass, which contracts and beats, like a human heart.
The lair of alien creatures!
Xingle felt a little confused, but he still guessed what place it was, and what kind of creatures those pitch-black eggs were.
At the same time, Xingle also heard those faces calling him in a trance, calling him over, saying that they were very happy, and they wanted to be together.
"Bite your tongue, bite quickly!"
A woman's voice rang in Xingle's ears as a hand suddenly grabbed his arm.
Xingle was attracted by the scene he saw, but he didn't notice that there were people around him, and he instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
"We met at the train station, do you remember the wallet?"
As if she was afraid that Xingle would make a sound, the woman immediately said something again.
"Is that you? Aren't you at the police station? Why are you here?"
Without the woman to explain, Xingle could already hear who this voice was, the girl who wanted to lie to him.
"Let's not talk about that, you guys come with me now, and don't let it find out. ”
"It?"
"Let's go!"
The girl didn't care about Xingle's reaction, and seeing that he was still quite conscious, she didn't say anything more about telling him to bite his tongue, but pulled him and walked back.
Soon, the two returned to Wu Youde's side.
"Uncle Wu, this is my friend. We're going with her now. ”
When Xingle saw Wu Youde, he said directly, without explanation.
"Your friend?"
Wu Youde doesn't believe it, can you meet friends in the sewer?
"Well, I'll explain it to you in a moment. ”
The girl did not speak, and led the way directly in front.
"Can't go to the city, it's not safe there, take us to the river. ”
Xingle reminded the girl in the back, afraid that she would bring herself and Wu Youde back again.
"Well, I know. ”
The girl didn't look back, but her feet grew faster and faster, and she seemed to be very familiar with this place.
"Rustle, rustle......"
After walking for a few minutes, strange voices suddenly sounded behind several people.
"Run, keep going, and you will be by the river in ten minutes. ”
"It found you, and I'm blocking it. ”
The girl stopped abruptly and turned to speak, in a hurried tone.
"Who is it?"
Xingle asked, also pausing.
Unlike the girl, from the moment she entered the sewers, Xingle knew that she and Wu Youde were being targeted by something unknown.
After the rustling sound, the feeling became even stronger, and it was estimated that I couldn't run away, so I had to think of another way.
