Chapter 216: Strange Corpse
After passing through a few more rock crevices, the maze suddenly became so active that we had to run, this time more than ever, and the rocks with muddy water kept falling from the top of the cave, and we ran all the way with our heads in our hands, the rocks behind us were shrinking rapidly, and they were chasing us according to the sound.
No, it's not just the sounds, they seem to have a sense of touch and become extremely sensitive, and wherever my feet land, the rocks there react very much, shrinking and moving violently, not only me, but even Nineteen, whose steps are light and hardly sound, but the rocks are no slower than mine.
I raised my hand and touched the stone wall next to it, and sure enough, it felt my movements, and it moved suddenly, and I hurried past, and couldn't help but look back, this labyrinth was getting weirder and weirder, although voice control and touch screen were already popular technologies, but this was a relic of thousands of years ago, and this was definitely a creation of God.
I was tired, my feet were sore and soft, the rocks were always moving suddenly, I couldn't step on solid ground, so it was easy to twist my feet, I could only raise my legs as high as I could, and it was even more tiring to run.
We ran into a cave, and saw that every road around me was twisted as if it were alive, and I was dizzy and dizzy, and I buried my head in running after Nineteen, which was a rocky road, and the stone walls were full of dense crevices on both sides, all of which were no more than a finger's width, like writhing insects, opening and closing.
The rocks under my feet were moving up and down, and I felt like I was running on the stairs of an earthquake, and I couldn't balance at all, and I slumped into the rock wall on the left, and I felt something soft and wet under my hands.
I didn't care, I thought it was seaweed, but it suddenly moved, and shrank back from under my hand, and I was startled, and I saw a white thing flash in the crevice of the rock, and in an instant it was swallowed up by the rock.
"What's that?"
I screamed, but I couldn't see it anymore, there was only wriggling black rocks, I rubbed my eyes, and the closed rock crevices opened again, but there was nothing white.
I shouldn't be mistaken, the thing was so conspicuous and out of step with the darkness around it, but it was gone, the crevices were so narrow that even monsters couldn't hide, and I still had the touch in my palm when it was withdrawn, soft as wet hair.
"What? What do you see? Nineteen spoke as he ran.
"Nothing, something like white hair, just for a moment, now gone." I gasped and replied.
Nineteen didn't ask any more, and Brother Shen didn't respond, I don't know if they saw it.
Although nothing happened, my heart felt like a knot, and my feet ran crookedly like drunk, and we quickly ran out of this rock crevice, and Nineteen turned to the other, but Brother Shen suddenly spoke: "Wait! ”
Everyone's footsteps stopped, and we all looked back at him, only to see Brother Shen staring straight at the other road, his gaze unfocused, as if he had looked over the layers of rocks, far, far away.
"Someone died." He spoke softly.
Nineteen's eyes froze: "Who?" ”
I was really afraid to hear Ah Chuan's name from his mouth, but he shook his head: "It's not Ah Chuan. ”
My heart was like riding a roller coaster, Nineteen's body was obviously relaxed, and Brother Shen frowned slightly, as if impatient: "There is something here, we are surrounded." ”
"What's that? A-Qing didn't see anything. Nineteen spoke.
"I can't see it either, but I can feel it, they're all demons."
Brother God said, turning his head and running towards the crevice in the rock he was staring at, his speed as if he was trying to determine something.
What does it mean that he can't see either, could it be that he still has the same function as Ah Qing, the perspective eye?
I was a little baffled, his words were always so incomprehensible, Eleven didn't hesitate to turn around and chase, and Nineteen pushed me and motioned for me to follow.
"Don't you follow Ah Qing's path? Where is he taking us? I asked as I ran, things getting more and more unexpected.
"I'm afraid it's hard for A-Qing to show us the way anymore."
Nineteen said in a low voice, like a boulder thrown into my heart, stirring up turbulent waves, I didn't ask any more, can't show the way is the reason for Ah Qing or the reason for the maze? Could it be that this is already the realm that the fly can't see?
I was very panicked and scared, there were similar maze scenes in simulated battles, but it was by no means so terrifying, reality and fiction were far apart, and the state of mind when death came could not be simulated by an instrument.
The environment itself is weird enough, but there are so many unknown monsters, if they really die, I'm afraid that they won't die at the hands of monsters, but from their own fears, these monsters seem to be deliberately trying to cause us to panic, they are everywhere, and they will come out to harass from time to time, but they don't let us see the true face.
It's like a trap, they're waiting for us to walk into the center of the trap, and that's when the best time to close the net, and I feel more and more that life here is intelligent, and even the labyrinth itself has spirituality.
We ran with Brother Shen for a long time, there was water in almost every rock crevice here, I didn't dare to relax for half a minute, I watched my feet with fear, the water delayed our speed, we would run and swim for a while, even when we were doing physical exercises, there was no such intensity.
The labyrinth gradually eased, but Brother Shen refused to rest, his eyes were always far ahead, I had no concept of time, and I had no direction cognition, it was obviously an island with a length and width of only a few hundred meters, but the internal space seemed to be stacked with countless layers, and it would never be able to run to the edge.
We passed through seven or eight rock crevices again, Brother Shen's speed gradually slowed down, I was out of breath, I thought my physical fitness had been exercised well, I didn't expect to have such an embarrassing day, but Brother Shen suddenly sat down, it seemed that he wanted to rest.
No one objected, I don't know when it began, Brother Shen became the backbone, the Mo family trusted him to the extreme, if he really wanted to lead us to death, they would not hesitate to follow.
I finally had a chance to breathe, and I ate and drank a little casually, and when my breathing gradually stabilized, Brother Shen stood up again, he didn't have to say anything, and we understood what he meant.
We started again, and this time he didn't run again, but walked slowly and carefully, barely making a sound, and I tried to slow down my pace, which was difficult even if I wanted to make a loud noise.
Brother Shen's body tensed, as if he sensed a dangerous beast, Eleven and Nineteen followed me, and there was no sound, and I looked back several times, for fear that they would also disappear silently like Ah Chuan.
The smell around me was no longer fresh, and there was an unpleasant fishy smell, like the smell of the fishing port that had been unloading for many years, and I sniffed, the smell was wafting from all directions, and I couldn't find the source.
The terrain here is already very low, but it is not as damp as before, there is almost no trace of stagnant water, the maze is moving slowly, and the rocks are barely moving, as when they first entered the floating island.
We followed Brother Shen around a corner, only to see a wide rock crack in front of me, and suddenly a faint smell of blood rushed into my nostrils, my heart tightened, but Brother Shen's movements suddenly accelerated, he trotted along the rock crevice, and I saw a person at the end of the rock crevice in the distance.
He was prostrate on the ground, with his back to us, wearing exactly the same clothes as us, and I felt a stream of blood rushing to the top of my head, and my body shook uncontrollably.
My brain went blank, my lips trembled, I turned my head to look at the nineteen of them, but their expressions didn't change, Brother Shen stepped forward and squatted down, turned his body over, I almost didn't dare to look, squinted and squinted, only to realize that this was a person I had never seen before.
I was relieved and relieved, when I first saw the clothes, I thought it was Ah Chuan, until now my heart was still pounding, Brother Shen stepped forward and squatted down, playing with his hair, I saw that he died in the same way as the skeleton, there were two small holes in the skull, and there was red and white liquid flowing out of it, the amount was not large but it was terrifying, but he was not poisoned, and the cause of his death was only because of the injury on the skull.
There was also a paste of white flowers thrown out on the rock near his head, stained with blood with a slight pink, it was a splash of droplets, I looked away, this scene was really disgusting, although the wound was small, but it looked very miserable, I didn't expect that the thing that killed the ancestors of the Mo family thousands of years ago is still alive.
Brother Shen flicked his head, his head hit the rock, making a strange sound, it was a little crisp, Brother Shen stood up and whispered: "His brain has been sucked clean." ”
I felt numb all over my body, and I couldn't flee immediately, what kind of place is this, hell on earth? I felt uncomfortable all over, like there were countless worms crawling, I saw his backpack right next to it, there were traces of being dragged, Eleven opened the backpack, and the equipment inside was almost exactly the same as ours.
I was surprised, I didn't know what to say, I couldn't see anything from their faces, this was definitely the clothes and equipment of the Mo family, could it be that a group of people had already landed on the island before us?
This is impossible, it is obviously Si Yu that we found, it is impossible for the Mo family to send another batch, except that the Mo family is the enemy, but how can the enemy have exactly the same clothes and equipment as the Mo family?
The doubt diluted the fear a lot, I couldn't understand it, and I was about to ask, but Brother Shen suddenly turned around and covered my mouth, his eyes stared straight at the upper left of the cave, and I looked up, there was nothing but rocks.
The air seemed to freeze, everyone looked up in the direction that Brother Shen was looking at, I also felt depressed, as if I was being targeted by something, I could smell a different breath floating in the air, and the smell was quietly changing.
