Chapter 263: Canyon Flowers
This is probably the first time I feel like this, right?
Once upon a time, the Golden Heart gave me danger signals, usually in the form of a wild beating when my life might be threatened, and at least I was very close to the danger. Apparently this is not the case now.
But just now, it only beat once.
So, what exactly does this signal represent?
But according to previous experience, at least it is linked to danger. But it's not an immediate danger. And the source of that danger is the owner of this name, Ayimu.
"You eat slowly, I'll go out and prepare, and if you think about it, come to me later." With that, she left the kitchen.
Yao Qianwen, who has always been stupid, quietly glanced at the door at the moment Ayimu left, and then buried her head in eating.
"Are you trying to say something?" I looked at her.
Yao Qianwen quietly raised her head, glanced at the door again, and whispered, "I've heard that name......
"Tell me about it."
"I only vaguely remember that Sister Lan mentioned it, but I have forgotten why she mentioned that name and the story behind that name. At that time, I was still in the jar. ”
"But you look nervous."
"I ......" Yao Qianwen thought thoughtfully, her expression becoming more and more complicated, "I just vaguely remember that Sister Lan thinks that the owner of this name is very dangerous." That's why I'm curious, is it the same name, or what...... Why don't you ask Sister Lan tonight? ”
Sure enough, it was not much different from what I thought.
The danger comes from the owner of that name, but the danger is a probability, not necessarily happening. But if I don't do something right, the danger will come true.
"It's too late." I shook my head.
"You're going to go with her?" She asked.
"Hmm"
"What about me?" Yao Qianwen pointed to her nose.
"You ......" I thought for a moment and responded: "You stay, find a way to leave a message for Du Youlan, if I haven't come back at night, let her go to the valley to find me." ”
"Oh......"
In fact, what I hope most is that Yao Qianwen will go to the valley with me, I know that today's trip will not end in the evening, and it will be more reassuring for Du Youlan to be by my side at that time. But I don't know how much Yao Qianwen remembers the name Ayimu, her frightened eyes are very obvious, I don't want that kind of eyes to be violent and exposed in front of Ayimu, because I am really not used to the feeling of being afraid of the opponent before the conflict.
……
At about one o'clock in the afternoon, Ayimu and I came to what she called the back mountain canyon.
Standing in front of the cliff, she asked me, "Why didn't you come, girl?" You said she was here to play, why, because of what happened last night, she got angry? ”
"She's not feeling well, maybe she'll be late."
"Then she may not be able to find us, in this deep mountain, if she gets lost, a girl will not live long."
"I'm worried."
She was talking to me, but my mind was completely lost in the conversation with her, and looking at the canyon in front of me, I felt déjà vu.
Should have been here at least once.
It's just that I don't know if that memory is buried in the pool of oblivion, or ......
When I thought of this, Ayimu suddenly approached me and grabbed my arm, "Hey, your answer is absent-minded?" What do you think? You...... Do you really not know me? ”
The action looks rather ambiguous.
Although I didn't resist her as much as I did with Du Youlan, thinking of the Gu poison in her body, I still forcibly pulled her arm down, "We've never seen each other." ”
"But what do I think we've met? And, you stole one of my things. ”
"What did I steal from you?" I turned and walked to the other side of the cliff.
But she was behind me, and she replied in a slow voice, "That's it...... My heart. ”
I turned my head sideways, and I could just see her smiling face, "......"
"Haha......" she laughed, "aren't you shy?" But others are shy and blushing, why is your face a little pale when you are shy? ”
It's a heart of gold.
When she said the words "my heart", her heart actually beat again.
What's going on?
"Are you really here looking for someone?" I couldn't help but ask.
"It's looking for someone, and that's not a lie."
"This is not a lie, that is, you at least have something to deceive me."
"Heh......" she chuckled, then nodded completely undenied, "yes, the search for someone who disappeared two years ago is a lie." However, I really came here to find a boyfriend. ”
I frowned, "What do you mean?" ”
She approached me again, "Guess what I mean?" ”
In and out of the words, her goal is me, so finding a boyfriend is true, finding someone is true, that is to say, what she wants to express is ......
Why do you think it's so weird? The end of the world
I even want to ask, are you Mina? But this person is obviously not Mina, she feels different from Mina from the bones, even Mina's disguise is very powerful.
But who is she, and why is she eyeing me?
Thinking of this, strange things that happened along the way suddenly appeared in my memories, the eyes hidden in the library staring at me in the dark, the hidden eyes when I first met the stammer.
Could it be......
"You've followed me all the way? Is that right? ”
"Huh?" She was stunned for a moment, and immediately shook her head, "That's not true, if I hadn't found out that you were here, I wouldn't have appeared." ”
"Who the hell are you?" I finally asked the same sentence.
"Ayimu."
The heart of gold, beating again.
……
"According to the news I inquired about today, lying down the cliff and at the canyon level, you will find something similar to an ancient well. Walk around that thing eighteen times to the left and twenty-four circles to the right, and the well will shimmer with colorful colors. It is said that it is one of the entrances to the castle in the sky. ”
Ayimu was sitting on the edge of the cliff, swinging her legs alternately as she recounted to me the information she had sought.
"Who told you the message?"
"We stayed at that house, the neighbor's kids."
"You believe it too?"
"I believe it, so do you believe me?" She looked at me with a smile, then held out her hands to me, "You carry me down." ”
"Carrying you? Why? And, I don't seem to have said to you that I would choose to go ahead. ”
"Oh, I'm not sure, but you're ...... Still, I vaguely remember that he was supposed to be like this. She said something inexplicable, then stood up, dusted her body, circled behind me, and put her hands gently on my shoulders, "I'm a girl, how can I do such a thing as climbing down the mountain?" If you don't help me, I won't be able to get down. ”
I stood still and didn't look at her, I didn't take her arm off.
Until she actually climbed on my back......
I actually took her and crawled down the valley, but slowly. As I climbed down, I wondered what was the real intention behind this woman's actions.
But just when I was thinking about it, she suddenly asked me, "Hey, aren't you tired of crawling like this?" What you have here, and what you have in your mouth, don't you take it out to help? She touched my waist with one hand.
At that moment, my brow furrowed, and I knew what she was talking about.
But why would she know about my tentacles?
Obviously, she has changed her face, and there is no smell of insect poison on her body, although my nose may not be as sensitive as before, but most of her ability is still retained.
"Mouth? Bite a stone with your teeth, not yet. This slope, this height, is still carrying you, take your time to be safe, otherwise, we will probably die without a corpse. ”
"Well, well, if you like it, just keep ......," she leaned her head on my shoulder, "Actually, I like it quite a bit." ”
Near the bottom of the valley, I smelled a fragrance, and below there was a sea of flowers, red, green, and green, full of colors.
However, it seems that it should not be ......
The valley floor should be very dark all year round, and the flowers should not be so colorful.
At this time, Ayimu, who was lying on my back, spoke in a slow voice: "Be careful, I heard from the neighbor's children that the flowers under the valley are like a labyrinth. Originally, it was not difficult to find a well here, but with this maze, it became a problem. There are also many people who have been here, and it is said that most of them will be trapped to death...... Oh yes, I heard that under this gorgeous flower, there are hidden bones of explorers. ”
By the time she had finished, we had reached the bottom of the valley, surrounded by flowers.
"Really? That kid knows a lot. I put her off my back.
Ayimu moved his arm, "Hey, seriously, I always feel that your body movements are not as smooth as last night, is it my illusion?" ”
"You seem to like to play with me very much?"
"I'm telling the truth."
"I don't understand."
I took a few steps forward, and there was a creaking sound under my feet, which I had thought was a joke when Ayimu said that it was full of explorers' bones. But when I looked down and picked up the thing under my feet, I found that it was really a bone. But it's not human bones.
And, it's not the only bone.
It seems that there are really a lot of life, dead here, but most of them are small animals in the neighborhood. But why did he die here?
I instinctively found a direction and reached out to explore the valley, with an extra stick in my hand, and as I went, I pushed aside the nearby flowers. I was thinking about what Ayimu had just said to me, and she said it was a labyrinth. The flowers here are indeed very tall, but they are basically not above my waist, and it seems impossible to trap people as a labyrinth, at least so far, I can see the situation around me completely clearly, and I have not lost my bearings.
So, I asked, "Did the neighbor's kid tell me the specific direction of the well?" When you get to the bottom of the valley, how to go. ”
"Oh, it seems like the first time you took the initiative to ask me, do you think you need me too?"
"I don't think you know."
"You're really boring, can't you sell it a little? The child said that it would be good to get out of this maze of flowers, and when the flowers were gone, the well would appear. ”
"Really?" I looked ahead, and the bottom of the entire canyon was occupied by these colorful flowers, and if the flowers were missing, they would probably be out of the valley.
Thinking of this, I suddenly stopped.
It wasn't that I had any particular thoughts, but I realized that I hadn't found a skeleton for about three minutes on the route I'm walking now. I pushed aside the flowers around me, and sure enough, the ground was clean, only dirt and flower stems. So, I started to back away, and walked to where I had been about three minutes ago, and there were broken bones of various sizes around here. It is worth mentioning that at the boundary of about three minutes ago, the density of bone fragments was the highest.
I thought for a moment and said to Ayimu: "The area ahead, don't go, let's go another way." ”
