The wound on my upper abdomen was bloody, and it was right on me.

My body trembled uncontrollably.

It was as if I had fallen into an abyss of extreme cold.

"No...... No, it's not true, I ......" I looked up at Yao Qianwen in front of me, fantasizing that she would be like Mina, and then, I woke up from my dream and realized that it was just a nightmare I had on the first day of the holiday.

But there she was.

It seems to be in harmony with this endless dark cavern.

I don't know how long this fear has been haunting me, my body has gone from standing, to slumping, to lying down, and now sitting up again.

Over time, fear turns more into doubt.

Why did such a horrible wound not convey the slightest pain to me? Is it numb, or is there another problem?

I propped up my body, Yao Qianwen was still in front of me, "Uncle, have you calmed down?" I know, you need this. She sat on her knees and shone the light of her flashlight on my abdomen.

I slowly lowered my head and shifted my gaze back to the stab wound that terrified me.

It was still there, but the blood was no longer flowing outward, and the blood-colored flesh and some of the internal organs could be seen at the wound......

But there's something else to it about.

It may have just existed, but I didn't notice it because of fear.

It's mucus.

In my wound, there is also a special mucus on the back of Yao Qianwen's neck!

It's exactly the same as what you found in the mountains and forests, and on the rock walls of this cave!

"Uncle, you say, are we ...... now? Zombies or something? Yao Qianwen asked a question that seemed innocent, but it was not funny at all.

Obviously, during the time I was unconscious, she had seen her situation through my body.

When I looked up at her, she was pointing to the back of her neck, "I finally understand why you looked at me so strangely before." ”

"I didn't mean to lie to you, but for now...... I get that feeling, too. "I looked at my belly.

"It's okay, but what do we do next?" She asked me.

"We are still conscious, which means that we are not dead." I stood up against the rock wall, wrapped my clothes around my abdomen, took the flashlight from Yao Qianwen's hand, and shone it in the direction I was going before, "So, we have to get out of here quickly, and quickly find that place, the altar that Guan Hao said." Maybe that will find the answer, and even if there is no answer, it is the only hope we have to get out of this cave right now. ”

Although a fatal injury is not really fatal, it does not mean that we will always be safe.

I think the mucus can make it harder for us to die than normal people, but without food and water, it is impossible to sustain life for long. What's more, there is no free lunch in this world, the "immortal body" must not be given for nothing, Guan Hao's mutation is already one of the hidden dangers, maybe when, we may also become monsters.

And even more unpredictable horrors.

Before leaving, I put away the dagger that Xia Nan had left behind, only to find that it was really not the one I was holding before.

Did this woman hide a knife?

I took the knife and looked at it for a while, and the picture between Xia Nan and the couple man along the way came to my mind, and now that I think about it, in fact, she doesn't love him that much, and he doesn't love her that much.

"Uncle, you ...... What are you looking at? Yao Qianwen's voice trembled a little. As if worried, I suddenly went crazy and stabbed her with a knife.

"Nothing, let's go."

We continued to walk forward, and all I could think about was mucus, wounds, and images of myself transforming into monsters, until the tunnel in front of me showed a fork in the road again, and I was stunned that there were three forks in the road in front of me.

This is not surprising...... If I didn't have that hallucination.

"What's wrong? Don't know which one to choose? ”

Yao Qianwen's voice pulled me back to reality.

But I'm still shocked, what's wrong with me? Why do my dreams always correspond to reality? Was it like this before, is it a coincidence now?

If not, where does the road lead next?

That place in the illusion?

Towering stone towers,

The huge mass of flesh that perseveres on it,

and the twisted, tangled tentacles......

They appeared uncontrollably in front of my eyes, and eventually, they all turned into Mina.

Mina......

The mermaid.

For me, it was a fatal temptation.

I magically chose the option of the hallucination, the guidance of the meat ball. I don't know if my choice is right or wrong, but I want to see if there is her under the tower.

……

As it turned out, everything was not as simple as an illusion.

This way, every option, every fork in the road, is exactly the same as the memory in my vision, as if I had personally walked this road. Soon we came to the last tunnel, and the darkness ended in a cliff.

"Uncle, do you know the way?" Yao Qianwen finally couldn't help but ask me.

She had followed me all the way, and she had already noticed my abnormality.

"I said I saw it in a dream, do you believe it?"

"Faith ......"

I looked at her.

She immediately nodded: "What I said is true, I have also had this kind of dream." ”

"Really? But you may not dare to follow me in the next thing. ”

"What are you going to do?" She looked at me quizzically.

I didn't answer, but walked straight forward, all the way to the other side of the final hole, the cliff, the boundary of the vast space.

Yao Qianwen's eyes were filled with shock.

But in fact, I was shocked at the moment.

Because this time the picture is different.

The stone tower still exists, but it doesn't have the giant flesh worm, and on closer inspection, there seems to be something on it, but it's so shriveled that it's impossible to tell what it is.

Beneath the cliffs, glowing eggs were seen in the environment before they were gone.

There was darkness down there, bottomless.

All this ......

It seems to be a thousand years after that world in the illusion.

"What is this place?"

"I don't know." I shook my head.

"And what did you just say I might not dare to do?"

I stood on the edge of the cliff, looked down, and looked at the wound in my abdomen: "I want to jump." ”

"What??" Yao Qianwen was incredulous.

In fact, I was still hesitating at first, but step by step, the illusion gradually came true, and I was even more sure that it was not a simple nightmare. In the vision, Mina says that there must be a reason why she is there, under the tower. I had to go down and find out, there are some things that have a choice, and some things, there is only one way to go, and there is only one way to go, even if it means killing me.

"Why? You, don't you want to die? ”

Yao Qianwen grabbed me, as if she suddenly realized something, "Uncle, you are hallucinating again, right?" Calm down, didn't you say that you want to find the altar that Brother Hao mentioned, we want to get out alive, you can't be sent to death, you ......"

"The knife is left for you, self-defense, as for the flashlight I need it very much, sorry."

"You wait!"

Just as I was about to jump, Yao Qianwen suddenly grabbed me hard, and then made a very difficult expression.

It's weird.

That expression wasn't like hers.

"It's been eight lifetimes of blood mold with you to come here! What did you see before that you had to jump? That's it, just jump, but you wait......" said, Yao Qianwen threw out a silver coin from her cuff, she couldn't tell what kind of coin it was, the front and back patterns were different, a flower.

Coincidentally, I recognize the flower.

Crystal orchid, also known as ghost grass, dream orchid.

The legendary flower of the underworld.

"What are you going to do?" I asked.

"Jump with you head-on, find your way on your own on the back." After saying that, Yao Qianwen threw the coin high.
