Chapter 9: Frontline Puppets
Fake?
Hearing this, my jaw dropped again.
Trying to recall the scene, the woman saw the snake and threw herself on me in shock.
Then, she scared away.
I walked over to the faucet and, with a slight stretch of my hand, grabbed the little snake.
I still remember that the snake had a temperature.
It's about the same as a person's body temperature.
It wrapped around my wrist, moving around and itchy.
And now, Li Jiale actually told me that this is a fake snake, which I can't accept anyway. And when I handed the little snake to the snake killer, I saw it myself and took the snake gall out of its body.
Seeing the confusion on my face, Li Jiale said again:
"It's really a fake snake, an imitation snake that I bought from the Internet for nine yuan and nine free shipping. The degree of simulation of the snake is quite poor, it is made of plastic, not so much a snake as a hemp rope. I put it in the sink just to check the feedback of the people around me. The guests who came to eat were scared away when they saw the snake that couldn't be faker, but when I saw you put it in the palm of your hand, it was moving! ”
Speaking of this, he could pause again: "At that time, I found out that the fake snake was alive. Later, when I saw that the snake killer went to take out its bitter gall, I confirmed my idea even more. ”
"What thoughts?"
"You, Tang Xiaofan!" Li Jiale pointed at me with his finger: "Because of your existence, some inherent things around me have changed, and the living artificial snake says it all!" ”
Hearing this, I opened my mouth.
Then I looked at him with wide eyes: "Li Jiale, what can be opened is a snake shop, there must be hundreds of snakes in your shop, one or two run out, it's too normal, and take snakes in the women's bathroom, women are naturally timid, and they are scared when they see snakes, it's not how normal it is." ”
When I said this, my heart was actually very empty.
I tried my best to explain the situation at that time according to the logic that conformed to the development of things, but Li Jiale didn't listen to anything.
He asked me again: "Tang Xiaofan, do you still remember, when you caught that little snake, was there anything special about it?" ”
A special place?
I rolled my eyes a few times, trying to remember.
I walked to the edge of the pool and grabbed the little snake in one hand.
The little snake was wrestling on my wrist.
I held it down with my other hand again.
When the little snake looked at each other, it spat out a stamen, and on its pointed head, a little white spot, was twisted into a circle, and it looked a little unusual.
Lee continued: "At that time, what I bought online was actually an imitation silver snake. ”
Krait.
When I heard these three words, I seemed to understand.
The silver krait is a highly venomous snake, its body is very small, and the pointed head is surrounded by a white ring, hence the name silver krait. The krait is very rare and is now almost on the verge of extinction.
The price of one such snake is said to be quite expensive on the black market.
So, don't say it's a highly venomous snake.
Let's just say Li Jiale, how could it be possible to make such an expensive snake into ingredients for guests to eat.
The only logical thing is that he bought it, it was indeed a fake snake, and that snake, after I appeared, was really resurrected.
If what Li Jiale said is right, then it is indeed alive.
Because I saw with my own eyes that the master took off its snake gall bladder, skinned it, and took the internal organs, and made a pot of snake soup.
I looked at Li Jiale, and my heart beat more and more:
"The snake lives, and he didn't know that he was a hypothesis before, what does that mean?"
Li Jiale's expression was very serious: "Tang Xiaofan, did I tell you before that my snake-killing master has killed tens of thousands of snakes?"
I nodded, "Yes, but this ......"
"How can a master who has killed tens of thousands of snakes not be able to tell whether the snake he killed is a poisonous snake? And how is it different from other snakes? ”
When I heard this, I seemed to understand something.
The words were all on my lips, but I tried my best to suppress them all.
At the moment, I am more nervous than ever.
I looked around, and those people still didn't move, their expressions and postures were different, maintaining the last movement before they were still, and the expressions on their faces were very marketable, looking much more realistic than the dummies in the wax museum.
The air was filled with the abnormal smell of the "Red Girl".
Looking up at the sky, the full moon hanging in the sky was half obscured.
I whispered to Li Jiale: "So, do you think someone is in control of all this?" The employees of your farmhouse, and the people around us now, the young man who disappeared just now, are all being controlled? ”
I've never had a very good imagination.
It's not easy to have such logic in your head.
I've watched some horror movies before, and there are marionette plots in them, talking about some people, some of their thoughts, some special personalities, which seem unfathomable, but they are actually controlled by people at the top.
That's why I made some moves that are usually unimaginable.
No, Li Jiale shook his head after listening to my words.
My heart sank.
It's not being controlled, what is it?
Everything around is still quiet, and the "Red Girl" is quietly blooming with that atmosphere.
I couldn't hold it back, and my voice was much louder than before: "It's not that I'm being controlled, so what's wrong with them, Li Jiale, don't let me guess everything, I'm stupid, I can't guess a lot of things." You just say it's okay or not! ”
I'm really angry.
I'm still thinking that if Li Jiale continues to pretend like this, I will beat him up.
Seeing that I was in a hurry, Li Jiale nodded:
"Tang Xiaofan, in fact, it is very normal for you to have such a reaction."
I waved my hand at him and made a gesture of please continue, and Li Jiale said: "They are not controlled by others at all, if they are controlled, there will always be one or two people who will make some rebellion and change, but there are so many people, no one." ”
"And then?"
Li Jiale asked me rhetorically: "Do you remember what I just told you?" ”
I thought for a moment: "You say the program?!" ”
"That's right!" Speaking of this, Li Jiale gritted his teeth; "Tang Xiaofan, all along, many people around us are actually lifeless, they are just programs written by people!"
Hearing this, I stood up all at once!
Li Jiale continued: "And we are what you just said, marionettes!" ”
