Darkness Endless Light is expected

Who's harder

Darkness, endless darkness.

Not only is it destroying people's eyes, but it is also eating away at people's hearts.

People have always thought that what they see with their eyes is the most terrifying, but they often ignore the fact that what is really frightening and frightening is usually the invisible things.

"Rustle...... Rustle rustle...... Rustle rustle ......"

The footsteps were low and slow, and it sounded like a weak woman dragging a bag of cement on the sand, slow and weak.

But at this moment, the voice sounded to the ears of Liu Junxiao and the bearded man, as if an invisible ghost hand was pinching their necks little by little, making them unable to breathe.

Liu Junxiao and the bearded man squatted on the side of the dried corpse, not daring to move, not even daring to take a breath, for fear that if he made a little movement, the thing that didn't know what it would pounce on him.

There are many kinds of footsteps, some are light, some are heavy, some are men, and some are women.

Most people can't hear the difference in footsteps, but some people can tell who they are in an instant.

The shopkeeper Chen of Zhenpinzhai is this kind of person.

The shopkeeper Chen, known as Chen Youde, is the second head of the Chen family's Zhenpinzhai.

The first head Chen Tianhua had a total of seven children, three sons and four daughters, and Chen Youde was the youngest son. But Chen Youde is young, but in the identification of antique artifacts this talent is extremely high, at the age of four can already see the quality of jade, the location of the excavation and the approximate year, when he was six years old, he followed his father to visit Beijing Panjiayuan, "pick up" to pick up the opal in the middle of the Ming Dynasty.

In the following decades, Chen Youde relied on his own pair of discerning eyes, which can be said to be dominant, and he won the name of Golden Eye.

In a blink of an eye, more than 40 years have passed, and Zhenpinzhai has become the number one shop in Tianjin's antique industry with the efforts of Chen Youde, and its name can be said to be unparalleled.

It's just that compared with the old man Chen Tianhua, Chen Youde is more ambitious, he wants more than just money, if you want money, how much does their Chen family want, although it is not the first household in the lower reaches of Tianjin Jiuhe, but it is definitely the master who stomps on the whole Tianjin city trembles, Chen Tianhua wants another thing.

"You're here!" Chen Tianhua sat on the shore of a tea made of wood at the bottom of the boat with his back to the door, and said slowly while drinking the tea in his hand.

"How do you know it's me?" A voice said lightly.

It's a woman's voice, a nice woman's voice.

"I can tell who this person is by the footsteps, have you forgotten?" Chen Tianhua suddenly paused when he said this, and after a while, he slowly continued: "Do you have something on your mind?" ”

"Why...... Why? The woman said.

"Because there's some hesitation in your steps." Chen Tianhua took a sip of tea, then tapped the place next to him with his hand, and said, "Come, sit, have a drink together, the aged Pu'er tastes good." ”

"No...... No. The woman said with some hesitation, "I just wanted to ...... this time."

"Whatever you think, let's drink tea first! Isn't there some waste of such a good tea that no one shares. Chen Tianhua said slowly.

"Good!" The woman thought about it, and finally sat next to Chen Tianhua.

Chen Tianhua raised his eyes to look at the woman, frowned slightly, and then poured her a cup of tea.

The tea soup is very thick, and the dark brown tea soup exudes a very special aroma, like fruit trees, like flowers and plants, like bitterness, and like sweetness.

Chen Tianhua finished pouring the tea, and then said slowly: "Why do you always like to wear black clothes?" ”

The woman did not answer Chen Tianhua's words, but picked up the tea in her hand, first sniffed it under her nose, and then drank the tea soup in the tea cup in one gulp, and then took a deep breath, saying that it was strange that the originally bitter and dry tea soup suddenly became extremely sweet at the moment it entered her throat, and an indescribable warmth followed the tea soup into the woman's stomach, and the woman couldn't help but sigh: "Good tea." ”

"I'm telling you it's good tea." Chen Tianhua smiled slightly.

"I've drunk the tea, now can I talk about my business?" The woman in black looked at Chen Tianhua and said.

"Absolutely. Excuse me, what are you coming to me for? Chen Tianhua asked.

"For my children." The woman in black said word by word.

"Hmmm! I guessed it. Chen Tianhua replied word by word in the same tone. However, our agreement is, you give me, I want, I can give you, what you want, right? ”

The woman in black didn't speak, she looked at Chen Tianhua, as if waiting for Chen Tianhua to continue.

Chen Tianhua picked up the teacup unhurriedly, took a sip of tea, and sighed: "This tea is really good, it's really a pity that you don't drink a few more sips." Since you're coming to me today, I think you've got what I want, right? ”

"That's right!" The woman in black said.

"So where's the thing?" Chen Tianhua looked into the eyes of the woman in black and asked.

"Don't ask where the thing is, what I want to know now is, how can I be sure you won't go back halfway?" The woman also looked at Chen Tianhua's eyes and said.

Chen Tianhua smiled, he was nearly fifty years old, he still had a neat white tooth, he slowly put down the teacup in his hand, reached out and picked up the pipe on the side and lit it, and then said slowly after taking a puff: "I can't be sure, and you can only trust me, right?" If you want to continue with this transaction, it's best to give it to me first, and I'll ......."

Just when Chen Tianhua's words were not finished, a loud "bang" suddenly came from outside.

At the same time, such a scene also occurred in another place in Chinese mainland, a huge explosion almost collapsed the entire stone road, and the violent shock wave accompanied by the explosion knocked out the bearded man and Liu Military Academy who were squatting in the corner.

Because the explosion just now was very sudden, the two people who were caught off guard were not only pushed out by the shock wave brought by the explosion, but also almost burst their eardrums by the sound.

Liu Junxiao was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, his ears were like pins and needles, and his chest was like being pressed by a thousand-pound boulder, and after a long time, he barely spit out the breath held in his chest.

But then there was a sweet throat and eyes, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out.

After vomiting blood, Liu Junxiao felt a lot better, he barely supported his body and sat up, but as soon as he sat up, he heard a series of gunshots not far in front of the stone road.

"This ...... What the fuck is going on? The bearded man said through gritted teeth.

"I don't know!" Liu Junxiao reluctantly replied.

"Let's ...... Shall we go and see? The bearded man gasped.

Before Liu Junxiao could answer, the rapid gunfire suddenly stopped, and then bursts of tragic wails filled the entire stone road.

The sound sounded like a myriad of evil spirits roaring in hell in this enclosed space, making the hairs stand on end to those who heard it.

All of these changes come and go very quickly, to be precise, from the moment the shots go off to the moment they disappear completely, it only takes a few seconds.

After a few seconds, everything returned to its previous calm.

The darkness is still the darkness that you can't see your fingers.

The silence is still the silence that seems to swallow up all the sounds in the world.

The only evidence of this happening is the sand and gravel that occasionally falls through the cracks in the rock walls of the stone path.

They are like fine sand in an hourglass, falling by themselves, as if reminding Liu Junxiao and the bearded man in the stone path that time is still passing quietly.

Or maybe it's God warning them that it's not just time that's lost, it's their lives.

The two of them did not act rashly, they were both old rivers and lakes, and they knew that if they rashly walked towards the place of the incident at this time, they would probably become the next victims.

At this time, what they need is calm, what they need is to wait, as for what they are waiting for, is it an opportunity? Or hope? Or even death? Maybe they don't even know it.

They are afraid!

Fear of the unknown environment ahead, fear of the sudden appearance and disappearance of footsteps, and fear of the darkness here.

But even so, they have to be calm, and they have to wait.

Liu Junxiao and the bearded man leaned against the stone wall and waited for a while, finding that everything around them no longer had any changes.

After about a cigarette, Liu Junxiao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Let's go, let's go over and take a look." Look what just happened! ”

"Good!" The bearded man nodded.

After the two of them agreed, they each took out their flashlights. Liu Junxiao's wolf-eye flashlight was hit in the explosion just now, and he took several shots before he barely lit it, perhaps because the bulb was hit, and the wolf-eye flashlight in Liu's hand obviously lost its previous brightness.

But there is more light than no light.

It's a strange thing to be a human being, because you rely a lot on your eyes, you rely on light.

This is not only psychological, but also psychological, people will subconsciously think that where there is light, there is safety, where there is light, there is hope, just like a person walks in a dark place for a long time, when he sees the light, he can't help but walk towards the place where there is light, even if it is full of danger.

The two of them walked along the stone path for about ten meters one after the other, and suddenly, a ray of light suddenly lit up not far in front of this stone road.

A white light.

A ray of light as white as paper.

This stone road, which was already full of strange atmosphere, was instantly covered with a veil of mystery and horror.
