Chapter Forty-Nine: In a World Where Time Flows Slowly
Rabbit Chrysanthemum followed Lulunaka into the cave. The entrance to the cave that could swallow even the light did not frighten her, she had seen such an environment a lot, this kind of world in the interior of the mountain, it was originally such an existence, and like the underground, it was a place where the sun could not reach. The wind howls at the entrance, and she follows Lulunaka inside, unable to see the road, but she can see Lulunaka.
This petite girl, holding a fluorescent glass bottle in her hand, the light in it is soft but dazzling, dazzling but not dazzling, the light is very comfortable, even if you look directly at it, there is no discomfort, and there is even a feeling that the eyes are gently caressing and loosening the tense nerves. For someone who had eaten so much snow blades outside, it was just a cure.
Rabbit Chrysanthemum had never heard of any light that had such an effect, and the light emitted from the glass bottle in Lulunaka's hand seemed to have a fixed form, flowing slowly, was it water, or was it just her illusion?
"Are your eyes better?" Lulunaka, who was walking in front, said suddenly, "Even if you are strong enough, it will not be good to eat so much wind and snow outside." ”
It's really like this, it's not a tempering for Tu Ju, if it was ten years earlier, it might be a life-and-death experience, but now, those winds and snows can't determine her life and death - but this time stagnant environment is different.
Even now, that inexplicable pressure is still pressing on Tu Ju, making her a little difficult to breathe. Whether it is on the island or in the Central Plains, in these days of almost exile, she has also done a lot of things to kill demons and eliminate demons, and she can be regarded as seeing all kinds of things, whether it is swords, or witchcraft or Taoism, there are always new things that open her eyes, and there are also immortal arts that can stop everything...... But there has never been such a thing as it is now, giving Rabbit Chrysanthemum an indescribable feeling. If you feel the environment with your body and bear this pressure, you can feel more and more clearly that the world is not still, but what is still is yourself......
"I've heard that there is a monster in the West that can petrify people, and it's called Medusa. Rabbit Ju said, "Is that how I feel now?"
"You know Medusa, but very few people here really exist. Lulunaka smiled, "This is just a mythical creature, what does it have to do with the current era? In the case of the Central Plains, it is the era when dragons are everywhere, and what you say on the island...... Isn't it the era of primitive beliefs when the god of the land was worshipped and flourished?"
Rabbit Ju was not surprised that Lulunaka knew so much about the situation in the Central Plains and her hometown, "So does Medusa exist?"
"Medusa is a mythical creature, just like the weird novels you wrote. Lulunaka said, "But the archetype exists. ”
The two of them have come to the present, Tuju doesn't know how far he has walked, but the road in the cave is smooth, and if you look at the foot, you can see the road that has been repaired. It's really not just an ordinary cave. Although I have been mentally prepared for this, I really didn't expect to walk on such a solid and stable road...... Just ignore the things that fall on both sides.
There seem to be quite a few people who died here. Those people still retain the faces of the dead, except for the faces of the dead, there is nothing wrong with them, they are like living people, lifelike corpses. But this kind of human body without decay is not said to be more relaxing than skeletons and decomposing corpses. A dead man who looked like a living man, with a dead face that could never be alive, was more terrible than anything else.
"Do you think they're dead?" Lulunaka asked, knowing that Rabbit Daisy's gaze had been on the dead people around her. The walkway in the cave is not spacious, and it can accommodate up to three people walking side by side, and Tuju really can't take his eyes off the dead people around him, because there is really no place to take his eyes off. "Who are they?" asked Rabbit Daisy. She didn't ask for the names of these people, but for Lulunaka, what kind of identity these people belonged to in this place.
"I don't know. Lulunaka replied crisply, and it wasn't what Rabbit had expected. She should have known that these people were right, but she said so.
"It's been a long time since I last came, and I'm not an all-powerful and all-knowing god who watches over everything in the world. At least I'm not. Lulunaka said, her gaze falling to the side as well, skimming over the dead man who had staggered away from her. The dead man was dressed in full-rounder armor, and his face was invisible, and he was a warrior in terms of physique, but now he also sat down on the side, as if he had rested a little, and died like this. The snow on his body clumped into pieces and stuck to his armor, the joints were stuffed, and the iron sheets were covered with ice slag. There is no wind and snow here, so did he climb down from above, carry a body of snow and ice, and finally fall here?
Rabbit Ju didn't think she had deviated too much, and she was pretty sure why the strong man had died here. His time stopped.
"Just say this man. Lulunaka stopped, and used the fluorescent fluorescence of the glass bottle in her hand to shine at the man in armor and couldn't see, "The armor on the body has long been out of fashion in the past two hundred years, and the era of galloping in this kind of iron bucket has long passed, but it was just shot into a hedgehog by crossbow arrows." Of course, if it is strong enough armor, the firearm cannot be opened, but the person who wears that kind of thing is not an ordinary person in itself...... For example, the one in front of me can be a giant beast of war now, who can stop his charge?"
Tuju visually inspected the man's physique, and it was indeed so...... And the armor on his body is also evaluated like this, but such an indestructible body of steel, it is not easy to make a suitable armor. In her hometown, this kind of steel would probably be made into a complete set of movable armor, and then several magic weapons. Attacking requires less steel than defending, and a thick piece of iron is sufficient. And for a reckless person like Xu Qing, it is probably enough to say that it is a wild knife, but it is actually an iron rod.
Such a person did not die on the battlefield surrounded by thousands of people, nor did he die in the endless firearms attacks, or the fight with the giant beasts, but died so quietly.
"It's a pity that he didn't know what he was facing, and that he died on his own. Lulunaka laughed, "Just a break...... And then, just like that, it was gone. ”
She looked at Bunny, "I'm curious where you can hold out." ”
