Chapter 6: The Man in the Sarcophagus (2)

I secretly opened my eyes and observed him, his tall body was filled with a cold and unapproachable aura, like the suppressed cold under the iceberg, the silver hair was like satin spread on the red clothes, the light piercing in the hole seemed to be emanating from him, his waist was tied with a silver waist seal like a fire totem, and his shoulders were covered with blood-colored shawls flying in the cold wind, like an immortal who had fallen into the world...... He turned his head to look at me, his jade skin was better than snow, his pupils were like the moon, his long light gray eyebrows were marked by two petal-like red marks, and the angular outline was especially beautiful in the light, like a superb painting, outlining charming lines with moonlight....... I have never seen such a man, I unconsciously took half a step back, nervously clenched my palms, breathing slightly rapidly, my heart beat so that my mouth was dry...... I was still obsessed with staring, completely oblivious to dignity, and when his gaze met mine, my heart seemed to be squeezed, and I quickly lowered my head, and a layer of sweat floated on my body......

He approached me, and I was nervous whether to advance or retreat...... I stared down at his footsteps until he stopped in front of me, my forehead touched his chest, I quickly ducked back, who knew that he just looked at me meaningfully, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the cave, I patted my face, sobered up a little, and cautiously followed him...... The entrance to the cave was hidden by a few old vines, which were quite hidden, and curiosity drove me closer to the entrance of the cave, and I looked out at the old vines, and it was foggy, and there were cliffs outside...... Straight poked and poked, and my palms were sweaty when I saw it...... At this time, a black shadow hovered in front of him, and the man behind him suddenly shouted: "Come back!" ”

I was taken aback, and I quickly turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

He wanted to speak for a while, and finally only said: "The cliff outside the cave, you lean slightly inside, don't fall down." ”

I smiled and leaned in obediently: "Thank you." ”

He sighed slightly, slid on the stone wall and sat down on the ground, a little tired, I walked over and sat next to him: "You are in the sarcophagus, have you already died once?" ”

"Yes." He bowed his head slightly, not intending to say more.

I touched my neck and remembered the scar, but I still remember the pain: "Why did you bite me?" ”

He looked up at me in disbelief, and I just waited calmly for him to answer.

It took him a long time to tell me: "I have been lying in the sarcophagus for twenty years, and the sarcophagus is inlaid with life-saving medicines, but those medicines can only save my last breath, and I can only stay in the sarcophagus in order to save my life....... I was thirsty and hungry, and I thought it was a beast that broke in......"

"Do I have that beastly smell in me?" I argued for myself.

"You have a strong bloody ......"

"No, you're lying. You said that the medicine in the sarcophagus can only save your last breath, that is, you can't move at all, and if you move, you may die...... Not to mention coming out of the sarcophagus and biting me with such a big action...... You can break the boat like this, and you can't just because of a beast...... Unless, you know, I can save your life......" I leaned in his direction and asked seriously, "Why did you bite me?" ”

He pondered before he raised his eyes and looked at me coldly: "Didn't the person who brought you here tell you what you are?" ”

"He just wants me to wake you up and wait for him to come back to us. Others, not explained. ”

"Then you shouldn't have asked." He gave me a cold look, and continued to rest against the stone wall, saying no more.

I sat silently, and there was an awkward silence between us.......

I looked down at myself, I was really embarrassed by the blood, and after a long time, I finally spoke first: "You bit me, my clothes are dirty....... But I'm clean, you see! "I craned my neck to show him, and I didn't know what I was proving, and I didn't care about what I looked like in his eyes.

But he didn't care at all, and turned his head to look out of the cave, and I followed his gaze to look out, white and vast, and there was nothing to see.

"You've been lying in the sarcophagus, it's dark all around, how do you know you've been lying for twenty years?" I asked curiously.

"There's a mark carved into the stone wall behind you." He replied indifferently. When I looked back, it was really, carved into the stone, recording the passage of time......

"Someone comes to see you every year......" I groped for the deep nick, and a pang of sourness ran in my heart......

He stopped talking, I didn't talk anymore, and in my brief memories I had just harvested, he was the second person I had ever met.

The dull silence made me drowsy, I staggered like a tumbler, but I was not a tumbler after all, sleepiness pulled me headfirst to the ground, and it happened that his long sleeves were on my forehead, and I suddenly sat up conscious, and he still looked out, like a sculpture......

I grabbed his empty sleeve and asked tentatively, "How did your arm disappear?" ”

"Someone cut it down."

My heart suddenly tightened, and I couldn't help but clench my palms: "Why? ”

He helplessly hooked the corners of his mouth: "I made a mistake." I saw the muscles on his face tremble a few times.

He seems to be getting a little angry...... But I was so curious that I couldn't stop asking, "What's wrong?" "I watched as I spoke, and if he was really angry and wanted to hit someone, I would run away in time.

He was still looking outside, but I saw his chest rise and fall violently, and I slowly stretched out my hand and landed on his chest, gently stroking his chest: "I'm sorry...... I shouldn't have asked...... "Although I apologized, I was still curious...... Maybe he didn't think my apology was sincere.

He sighed silently and replied very heavily: "I live, but it's wrong." ”

I smiled and said to him, "You've already died once, and even if you're wrong, you'll pay for it." I comforted him.

He slowly turned his head to look at me, his beautiful suffocating eyes were full of anger, just as frightening, I stepped back with my hands propped up, but he didn't come close to me, he was a little helpless, and he felt that it was ridiculous to be angry at me.

"Come here." He suddenly retreated from his anger and offered to bring me closer to him......

"You're uncertain, I don't dare to go over."

"I'll tell you a story, but I can't tell the story......"

I'm confused about this, tell me a story, and I can't say it yet, what kind of logic is this? I slowly stood in front of him curiously.

"Come into my arms." He looked up at me calmly, and my whole body was already nervous: "You...... What do you mean? ”

"Tell a story." He continued, his eyes as calm as a mirror, and there were no waves.

I tried to get closer to him, and his eyes kept looking at me, and I didn't know where to put them, and I knelt down in front of him, trying to listen, but he bowed his head and pressed his forehead against mine...... My heart was beating fast and I wanted to hide, but he calmly said, "Don't move......"

I froze and didn't dare to move again.

I only heard him say softly: "Look at the mistakes I made, who should pay for them!" ”
