Chapter 25: The Bloody Rose (14)
The corners of Wei Fengci's mouth twitched a few times, and he still sighed in his heart that Xiao Chang was also a 22-year-old young man this year, how could he be more daring than a girl, and when Xiao Chang's voice channel suddenly sounded extremely weird music.
"The white dragon horse, with its hooves facing west, carrying Tang Sanzang to follow his apprentices, taking scriptures from the west and going on the road, it is tens of thousands of miles to ......"
"I said a little change, what are you doing......"
"With this song played, I feel less scared now......" Xiao Chang replied honestly.
"I'm more scared of you like this......"
Wei Fengci complained with empty eyes, and Xiao Chang suddenly screamed in surprise, pointing to the river:
"Brother! Elder brother! There's a skull thereβ"
His voice was so sharp that it was close to going out of tune, Wei Fengci turned his head to look, and really saw a skull wearing a crown floating on the surface of the river, and when he got closer, Wei Fengci couldn't help frowning.
The skull was unusually large, with a sleek top of its head almost the size of a wooden basin. The skull floated down the river to Wei Fengci, stuck on the driftwood branch by the river and ran aground, Wei Fengci suddenly shouted:
"Xiaobian, there's more than one skull here."
"Brother! Don't say it! Xiao Chang's voice trembled uncontrollably: "This is obviously a fighting game, what do you do to make the skull so realistic......"
Wei Fengci didn't speak, just quietly observed the surface of the river, and many skulls gradually emerged from the bottom of the river after he approached the river, and fell together on the surface of the river, forming one jump after another.
"In that sense, to get to the dungeon on the other side, we're going to jump over these skulls."
"Brother, it's good for you to jump...... I'm here waiting for you to come back......"
Wei Fengci glanced at Xiao Chang helplessly:
"Then you can stay here by yourself." With that, he jumped on the nearest skull with the crown on his head, and continued to leap forward.
"Don't! Elder brother! Rather than jumping over these skulls, it was obvious that Xiao Chang was afraid that he would be left here by someone, so he had no choice but to jump up with trepidation.
Every time a skull is jumped, the character will shake uncontrollably, and a very eerie and painful moan can be heard from the headphones. Xiao Chang was so panicked that in order to divert his attention, he asked again:
"Brother Feng, why don't the other skulls have crowns, only the first skull?"
"Because that's the king's skull." Wei Feng replied without replying, his answer was so unexpected that Xiao Chang exclaimed:
"Huh? King? How could the king's skull be here?! β
"In the original book of Alice in Wonderland, the Queen of Hearts has a husband, and if there is no king, where is the queen? Wei Fengci said calmly: "But in the works adapted in later generations, most of them will add a setting where the queen seizes power and executes the king. The March Hare and the Dormouse also said that the Queen of Hearts' favorite thing is to cut off other people's heads, and you can guess how the floating skulls in this borderless river came about......"
"When you say something like that, can you not use such a calm tone, brother...... What do you do in reality? Aren't you scared at all? Xiao Chang wailed.
The width of the river was staggering, and although it was clear from this side that the view on the opposite wall was clearly visible, it took a long time to actually jump over, as if the two were not crossing the river, but crossing Victoria Harbour, and when the Morph stepped on the ground, the small changes in reality were already weak.
Wei Fengci faced the city wall that couldn't be seen left and right, and couldn't find the direction where the city gate was, so he picked a direction and walked down the road by himself, ignoring the small changes that followed behind him and said some nonsense to relieve pressure.
After a while, Wei Fengci suddenly stopped.
"We're here."
In front of him, under the base of the city wall, there was a gap that was not too big or too small.
"Brother Feng, isn't this a dog hole? Do we really want to drill? β
"Don't drill the dog hole, do you still want to swagger in through the main entrance?" Wei Fengci said something with a humble eye, and he had already climbed in through the gap first.
Passing through the thick city walls, the scene in front of me was once again turned upside down. On the other side of the Borderless River, it was still night, and a moon made of inferior plastic hung in the sky, illuminating the walls of the city in a terrible light. And when the two of them came to a place that resembled a back garden behind the wall, the sky changed to a cloudless clear day.
"This place is really weird......" Xiao Chang was a little thief-minded, and lowered his voice and sighed.
"In the fairy tale world, those who pursue logic are all good spirits." Wei Fengci said calmly: "In this kind of place, maybe even the concept of time and space is very different from reality. β
Xiao Chang still wanted to say something, but Wei Fengci signaled him to silence again, squatted down beside the grass, and looked ahead vigilantly.
- There, there are two one-man high playing cards watering the flowers.
In this back garden, there are patches of roses growing freely, only the one in front of the two poker players is white, and what is even more bizarre is that the shower used by the poker people to water the flowers sprays not transparent water, but some viscous and rich red liquid, when those liquids are poured on the petals, the whole white rose bush is dyed red.
One of the three of hearts suddenly lamented:
"Watering the flowers like this every day, I feel like my waist is going to break."
Another spade four said coldly: "You're just a paper man, where did you get your waist?" β
The third of hearts said again: "Why don't you say that the Queen of Hearts just planted some ordinary red roses?" We are always asked to dye the white roses red. β
The Four of Spades: "Since the Queen of White took charge of Dusk, we have not been able to grow red roses." β
The three of hearts said listlessly:
"Every day except watering the flowers is watering the flowers, this day is really unbearable."
"That's safer than the Praetorian Guards fighting all day long." The Four of Spades choked and said, "In a while, the Queen of Hearts' 'afternoon pastime' will begin, don't you hurry up and finish the work, do you want to be beheaded?" β
Hearing the word beheading, the hearts trembled, and the two "men" began to scramble to dye the remaining white rose bush.
"Looks like the Queen of Hearts will be here in a moment." Wei Fengci said: "Our reputation in the Queen of Hearts camp is friendly now, and direct contact should be no problem. β
"So what should we do? Do you just wait for the Queen of Hearts to come over? The Shapeshifter was stunned.
"We'll have to wait, but we still have something to do until then." Wei Fengci smiled meaningfully.
