Chapter 243: The Man in the Cave

Over and over again, it almost tortured me to a nervous breakdown, I knew what was going to happen next, but I was powerless to stop it, but I was scared again and again, and I was still scared when I saw it again, it was like that simulated battle, terrifying like a maggot on the tarsal bones, like a shadow.

I felt my calves twitching, I wanted to wake up, but I couldn't open my eyes, I felt so painful, if I continued like this, I would probably die in my sleep.

"Bang bang bang bang-"

A series of rapid drumbeats suddenly exploded in my ears, and I panicked, and opened my eyes suddenly, the scene in my dream was still in front of me, and even when I opened my eyes, it was dark, no different from sleep.

I shook my head, finally out of my head, I breathed heavily, only to realize that my face was covered with sweat, I raised my sleeve and wiped it casually, the dried salt rubbed against my face, and it was hot and a little painful.

There are also a lot of abrasions on my face, it is strange if it doesn't hurt, these pains made me quickly wake up, the muscles of my calves are still twitching, as if the flesh and bone are separated, it doesn't hurt much, I raised my hand and pounded it twice, it finally stopped, and my chest fell with my breathing, and the pain seemed to burst.

I moved my legs and feet, and there was a sharp pain on the side of my ankle, and I touched it, and the lump seemed to be higher, and the pain in my whole body seemed to have been suppressed for a long time, and it broke out in an instant, and it seemed that the effect of the painkiller had passed.

I hesitated, but I opened my backpack and took two more pills, now I can't move at all, the familiar drum beat is coming again, who knows what danger it will bring.

I struggled to my feet, almost half-paralyzed on the rock wall, it would be nice to have a crutch, but it was difficult to walk against the rock wall, and there was nothing to support here.

The rapid drumming seemed to urge me forward, and the rocks behind me also increased the range of movement, there should be no human skin figurines here, I didn't encounter them all the way, they disappeared very early, it was almost impossible to chase them, but I was afraid that there was something else hidden in the dark, I could have avoided danger by hearing, but now I could hear nothing but the sound of the drums, and rash action is likely to be attacked.

I sat down again, and I remembered what Nineteen had said, that the drums would last forty-five minutes, with eleven hours and fifteen minutes apart, but unfortunately the last time it was very soon in the silent realm, and we couldn't verify that it was in accordance with this law.

I took off my gloves and pressed my pulse, and now my heart was beating fast, and I was afraid that it would be off, but it was not much worse, and I thought that I was really at leisure, and that I would concentrate on doing something meaningless in such a dangerous environment.

It's not bad to be quiet like this, the minutes are ticking, my heartbeat is back to normal, I sit quietly like this, silently remember the count, and my mind is very peaceful.

After a long, long time, the drumming stopped abruptly, and I let go of my right hand that was holding my wrist, and put my gloves back on, and nineteen was right, the drum beat did last about forty-five minutes, and I am sure it was controlled by a kind of automatic timekeeping mechanism.

But this number is too accurate, not to mention whether there was such a technology thousands of years ago, and even if there were, it should have been broken down by the sea for thousands of years, how could it be so accurate, even a god should not have such an ability.

I didn't think about it, there were so many mysteries here, the pain in my body was gradually decreasing, the painkillers were working, I touched my ankle, the swelling seemed to have subsided a little, and it seemed that the anti-inflammatory medicine I had just swallowed was also working.

Before it could get to the worst point, the surrounding area was quiet again, and it was time for me to hit the road, I stood up against the rock wall, and felt around to find that the original rock crevices had changed their positions, several of them had been closed, and two new ones had been opened.

I thought back to the one that came out of it, and headed for the one across from it, as long as I didn't turn back.

I'm a lot more settled, I thought I'd get more and more panicked as I walked, but no, maybe because I really saw death, maybe I didn't care anymore, I got used to the darkness, I learned to catch it with my ears, although I was still dizzy.

I don't know what happened to the injury, I raised my hand and touched my forehead, it hurt when I touched it, and I didn't even dare to touch it in front of me, it hurt so badly that I might be able to faint directly if I touched it again.

It's a good thing that there is no more bloodshed, this time I walked a little further, and several times I came across caves full of water, and I gave them up, and I didn't want to go into the water even if I could turn back, but fortunately there was less water here, unlike before I fell down, all of which were waterways.

There should be no turning back, I can't remember, I can always feel a slight wind blowing on my face, it seems to come from an open place, I face the wind that is like nothing, there is a wind means there is an exit.

During this time, I also turned on the lighter and tested it twice, which proved that I still couldn't see, and this absolutely dark realm was no smaller than the silent zone, so it seemed that this place was really layer after layer, and I would probably have to fall down again, or climb up to get out.

It's all by chance, it's complicated here, there should be a lot of ways to get into the upper and lower levels, but I can't find it, unless the maze moves again and takes the initiative to throw me down, but seeing Ah Chuan's death, I don't dare to be thrown down by it casually, no one knows how deep it will be below.

When I can't see, my hearing becomes sharper, I can feel the echo of my footsteps getting louder and deeper, and the crevices and caves I encounter gradually become more open, and I get closer and closer to the empty place.

I hesitated, I stopped several times, even if it was empty, it couldn't be open, I wasn't walking to the edge of the floating island, but going deep into the center, which was contrary to my initial decision, but I didn't want to go back, the floating island was sealed, even if I really walked to the side, I couldn't get out, and I could at least tell by the sound that I was walking a path that was not repeated.

I still chose to continue, in fact, it is the same wherever I go, and I will die wherever I go, so there is no need to dwell on it, just move forward.

I walked out of a rock crevice, and I heard the sound of water dripping from the roof of the cave in front of me, the sound was very empty, this should be a big cave, I was tired, and I wanted to rest again.

I walked into the cave and suddenly I felt that something was wrong, there was something else in the sound of water droplets and rocks rubbing, although it was very soft, but it was still caught by me, it was the sound of breathing.

I felt a chill all over my body, I couldn't hear it when I listened carefully, I held my breath, as if floating in an infinite hollow, and listened carefully to the movement around me, and it appeared, it was indeed a very shallow breathing sound, as if something was sleeping, but I couldn't detect the source of the sound, it seemed to come out of any corner of the hole, and converged together.

What is it?

The sound of my footsteps was not hidden in the slightest, and if it were a human being, it would have been a monster, and it was watching me quietly in the dark, waiting for me to make my next move.

I didn't dare to move, I desperately tried to turn myself into a stone, and the shallow breathing disappeared again, and I felt sweat on my cheeks, running down my neck and into my collar.

I took a step, quietly retreating, I wanted to retreat into the crevice of the rock just now, I was still holding on to luck, maybe this monster was too big to stay in the cave, then I would be safe to retreat.

I didn't make a sound, I held my breath a little flat, and the sound of breathing came again, far away from me, and it didn't seem to be chasing me.

I touched the edge of the crevice and cautiously retreated, I still felt that something was wrong, if there was a monster, it would not be able to let me escape, this breathing sound was shallow, it really looked like a human.

He didn't call out that I might have fainted, and I hesitated, but finally whispered into the cave, "Is there anyone?" ”

My voice spread out like ripples, with layers of echoes, and I heard something move violently, and soon silence returned, and the shallow breathing was gone, and I waited for half a minute, but I didn't hear it again.

That's certainly not a person! If he faints it doesn't make a sound, if it's impossible not to respond if awake, I feel creepy, it's holding its breath, it's noticing me, it's definitely getting ready to charge!

I was extremely remorseful, why was I so impulsive, there was still darkness in front of me, but it was different from the darkness of Fang Cai, there was a slight breath of danger in it, my whole body was tense, clinging to the recesses of the rock wall, and the sweat on my forehead was dripping uncontrollably.

I want to see, and there has never been a moment when I have such a strong desire to see what is inside! It was obviously much more patient than I was, and it hadn't made a single movement until now, but I felt depressed, and I always felt like something was creeping up on me.

My desire grew stronger and stronger, and I stared at the cave with my eyes closed, and suddenly, my eyes brightened, and I was startled, and immediately realized that something was wrong.

It's A! My strong desire touched A, and I inadvertently gave A a clear order to see, and it was being carried out!

No way! No!

It was too late, and suddenly it turned black and white, and I could clearly see that there was a huge cave of hundreds of square meters, and in the corner of the cave was a person, yes, it was indeed a person, but there was something different about him.

My eyes seemed to pop out of my sockets, and I saw clearly, I could see what was different about him, and then I felt the feeling of thousands of needles pricking, and I immediately held my head and let out a scream.

I lost consciousness little by little, a huge pain filled my whole brain, I couldn't think anymore, my eyes were dark again, something was gradually moving away from me, I knew it was my memory, the second time, even the second time I still couldn't escape, I screamed, I tried to keep this memory in pain, but I couldn't, it was dark in front of my eyes, and my body fell down heavily.
