Tomb of the Hanging Dragon 4.
"All I have on me is these herbs...... Try to exercise as little as possible. The toxin of this hairy spider is not particularly ruthless, but if you insist on death, it can also make you braid. I stiffened up, took the herbs I took out of nowhere to treat the wound that had been bitten by the spider, and after looking down and focusing, I suddenly found that the tips of my hair were soaked with sweat. I looked down at the wounded him, and looked down at me.
"Rest well, we'll leave later." Xiao Yue said calmly.
"If I lie here and fall asleep, I won't be able to wake up. If I hadn't been hurt, I might have been able to carry you on my back...... After all, you may not be as hungry as me, but still have the strength to walk? I said with a wry smile, all my bones, skin, flesh and brains screaming in pain.
"I'm hungry. Since childhood. But he corrected me. I'm a little surprised that a person like him who grew up in the palace can't get enough to eat, it's unimaginable. I suddenly felt a thrill in my heart, the children adopted by the Queen Mother are all poor orphans without fathers and mothers......
But I quickly put the matter behind me, for I saw the bloody hand he was clenching and hiding behind his back. I let out a very disgruntled "tsk" and tore his clothes after grabbing him.
Xiao Yueleng: ???
He subconsciously struggled, but I had already torn a strip of cloth from him quite unreasonably.
"Don't move, bastard." I wrenched his hand viciously.
He immediately understood, and fell silent.
Although my father only taught me medical skills, but because the foolish master insisted on cultivating me into a Gu master, I was tossed around by him with a confused face, and became this nondescript innocent baby who looks like a doctor and a witch, after getting used to raising a bunch of insects, most of the things on my body are poisonous, and there are very few people who can really use them to save lives and help the injured. I thought to myself that if I had brought more grass, I might have used it to satisfy my hunger.
"Ah, by the way, I'm full of water, if your mouth is dry!" I took out a small bottle out of nowhere, "The potion here is for stimulating plants...... You can barely drink it as water. Of course, it won't last long, and it's better than nothing. β
Xiao Yue took it coldly, and the brown liquid inside exuded a hint of fragrance. He hesitated for a moment: "You ......" but as if he thought of something, he didn't finish the sentence, but drank all the water.
We rested for a while, but decided to move on.
The burial chamber in front was strange, because it was so small that the coffin hung in the air as always, and this burial chamber was only a little wider than the passage. There seemed to be a candle lamp hanging on the wall, and I went to look at it and took out the flint and fiddled with it.
"This wall is weird. Luo Zhiyao, look at what it looks like. β
"Huh?" I turned my head suspiciously, and saw Xiao Yueleng muttering to the wall on the left. Then I took off the candle and held it up to look at it, a little surprised.
Each wall tile is very square, and the gaps between the gaps are deep and wide, cutting the entire large wall into small pieces, and some of the wall tiles are painted with some strange symbols.
"Like ....... What the? "Something came to my mind.
Xiao Yueleng suddenly squatted down, picked up something under her feet, pressed it against the wall fiercely, and stuck on it.
That's a disc. The mechanism behind it was stuck directly in the gap between the bricks. On the disc was written a symbol that I didn't recognize, but was somewhat familiar, and it seemed to be ......
"...... 'witch'? Chessman? Is this a chessboard? "I was a little shocked, and when I crouched down, I saw countless discs scattered on the ground.
"The front door is sealed, give us a chessboard...... Puzzle solving? Curious, I crouched down and looked through the scattered old chess pieces, "It's strange...... I don't know much about the Wi languages, but it seems that these are the names of countries. Interesting. Although I don't know the chess of the Wu clan, it may be a little similar to the chess of the Rui Kingdom, after all, it is born from the same roots. I casually hung the chess pieces with the word "θ³" written on them on the chessboard, but I felt a huge pain in my shoulder, and I squatted down with grinning teeth and shrunk into a ball. Xiao Yueleng also squatted down and was silent for a moment: "Let's two play chess." β
"Shhh.......hhh It hurts to death. Not necessarily. After all, how did the designer know that there must be two people coming here? What if there was only one person ......? A person facing a deck of chess? As I pondered, I suddenly had a stir: "I'm going to finish burning with this candle." Only this one wows my heart and liver baby. "I hurriedly blew it out. Xiao Yueleng didn't laugh at my funny appearance, but stood up and looked for chess in the dark. The world suddenly became silent, and I was stunned for a moment, and then I got up to look for the chess pieces.
"Rui, Fengyang, Qiubei, Qian...... Boom? I picked up a piece of chess, and the word "ζ±£" on it made me unable to take my eyes off it.
There are two names of old people who have not been seen for a long time. One is a master who is happy to get rid of the beating, and the other is a scheming senior brother with a poisonous tongue.
Oh, how did I know how much betrayal and helplessness the reunion would carry later.
I looked at the chessboard, and there were simple paintings on it that looked like mountains, rivers, oceans, etc., and I couldn't imagine what kind of magic paint still hadn't faded.
Chess? The two of us didn't know the rules at all, and we didn't even know how to arrange the initial formations. Xiao Yueleng became more and more irritable, and her movements became louder and louder, and the sound of the chess pieces colliding with the chessboard was very noisy, but I was dizzy and unable to say anything.
Senseless actions, senseless words, senseless everything!
What the hell am I doing?
Every time I breathed, it became more and more difficult, and I didn't know whether it was the mental or physical trauma that completely broke me, I only felt that from the inside out, from the outside to the inside, from the body to the heart, from the beginning to the end, it was full of gloomy emotions and tiredness and pain. I need to rest. I understand it deeply. But I have to race against time, or the guy next to me who is still extremely hungry with spider venom will really be hopeless.
It's weird. This feeling.
The feeling of being trapped in the capital of despair.
I rested my forehead on the cold wall, feeling weak. I can't throw in the towel yet.
"That, Xiao Yuebi...... I take a little rest and get up in a moment. β
In order not to disturb him from studying the chessboard, I slowly groped my way to the smooth wall on the other side, sat down slowly, and closed my eyes with my knees in my arms. The hot and cold body and chaotic brain made me really have to declare a shutdown
Will I fall into a deep dream and never wake up again?
Under the entanglement of countless pains in my dreams, I felt a cool hand on my forehead.
It's not like my father who is cold and indifferent and only throws a bowl of water on me, it's not like the master who will hug me tightly when I have nightmares and sleep with my saliva running down my mouth, it's not like the senior brother who always kicks me out of bed and shouts that this guy is sick again, and it's not like Wen Shilan who cares about me but also despises me.
But I wish it was them.
I was obviously asleep, but my brain became very awake and sensitive, and I seemed to vaguely feel the child's silence at a loss. He didn't call my name, he just laid me flat on the ground. I really didn't have anything more than the thought of sleeping, and I didn't want to react.
How long has it been? How many dreams did you have? A minute, an hour, a day, or 10,000 years? One, ten, tens of thousands, or an infinite number?
What is special about warmth? Obviously, there would be no bright and beautiful flames in such a dark and damp underground.
When my conscience and urgency forcibly woke me up, I saw Xiao Yueleng leaning next to me and falling asleep. The bangs hung down to block his quiet sleeping face. Beside me, the candle that burned to the end gave its last faint light. It seems that my sleep has not been very long, and the light has not been extinguished......
The light that has not yet been extinguished, so faint, but also so warm and bright.
As if my chest was already full of dust, I took a deep breath of the faintly smelly tomb air, and continued to solve the mystery, and after a while, the candle was extinguished, and when everything suddenly returned to darkness, I actually felt a great sadness called "loss". It turns out that the loss of light is such a heart-wrenching thing.
I have to thank the air here for being circulating, otherwise I would have suffocated if I didn't die of hunger and thirst. There was even water, just no food...... Well, if that old dryad from before was food, it was actually pretty good here.
I'm thinking about something.
I swapped the order of the pieces again and again, but it seemed to be all in vain.
I'm desperate, if this is a question specifically for the Wicans, how can I solve it? How can I crack it?
Xiao Yue slept coldly for a long time, of course, it was not as exaggerated as a day and a night. When he woke up, I was already desperately playing with several hairy spiders in the spider room. I tried to knock down and dig up those fluorescent stones that glowed with a faint purple light, hehe, useless.
Then I was a little crazy and hungry, who said that Xiao Yueleng was the only one hungry? I began to study the "Spider's Steaming, Stir-frying and Roasting Recipes" with green eyes. However, I'd rather eat spider silk than I can't eat it. I even want to go back and salvage the carcasses of the strange fish for a whole fish feast.
So Xiao Yue woke up coldly and walked to the spider room, just to see me gnawing on the soil (it's fluorescent stone, this is really like the kind of translucent sugar that Master gave me) such a picture.
The corners of his mouth twitched. "I thought you left me behind."
"The door is also... Can't open it, I have the one who discarded you... Ability? If I really want to lose you, it's not the best thing to kill and eat your meat...... Best. Eat sugar? β
I gnawed on the stone and asked weakly.
Xiao Yueleng: ...... You are crazy.
Me: I'm crazy from hunger. I really want to eat mooncakes, and winter melon can also be used.
Xiao Yueleng: I eat radish!
In the end, I was dragged back to the chessboard room by him.
ββββββββββββ
Uh, there's not enough time to write so much first.
βββββ Small Theatreββββ
Wen Shilan: My master dares to sleep alone!
Bai Yuehan: My brother dares too! He also dared to go to the field alone!
Wen Shilan: My master dares too! He still dares to eat!
Bai Yuehan: My brother dares to eat!
Poor me: I don't dare to !!
