Chapter 105: Sea of Worms
The self in the mirror seemed so strange, as if I was not seeing myself, but another soul that had borrowed from me.
But what I probably didn't even expect was that after seeing this scene, I didn't panic too much, as if I had already been mentally prepared enough in my heart, and now it's just a formality and a stamp.
I bent down, took the mirror straight out of the coffin, held it in my hand, and spun it around like a basketball, and then I slammed it to the ground.
The mirror was shattered, shattered densely.
I don't know what I'm doing right now, it's an absolutely impermissible act, most of the things in the tomb are artifacts, they are things that need to be handed over to the state, I don't have the right to destroy it, it's a violation of the law.
And yet I felt like I should and had to.
At this moment, among the shattered lenses on the ground, a very small insect crawled out, its whole body was golden, like a silkworm baby that had not developed well.
It squirmed on the ground, silently, as if trying to hide from my vision, but it should also be desperate, because after breaking the mirror, my eyes had been fixed on it, as if I had been waiting for it.
This insect should have been hiding in the mirror before, but now it is held up by my fingers, and it feels a little soft, wet, and glutinous, and I can clearly perceive its delicateness, but I can also imagine its strength.
It was sealed in a mirror, and the mirror was placed in a coffin, and the coffin was hidden deep in this ancient tomb, heavy and heavy, and it can still live until now, can you say that it is not strong.
Then, I did something that made me jaw-dropping, I actually lifted the worm high and slowly lowered it, and the place where I put it down, in my mouth, I actually ate it, no, to be exact, I didn't chew it, but after I put it in my mouth, it took the initiative to burrow into my throat.
The strong earthy smell came from my stomach, making my stomach spasm, I bent down, grabbed my stomach fiercely with both hands, it was still drilling, and kept marching in, it was still sick before, after entering my body, it instantly burst out with amazing vitality, like Sun Dasheng was thrown into the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun, constantly pouring.
Pain, yes, but after a long time, I slowly got used to it.
I tried to start standing up straight, like an Olympic weightlifter, and slowly lifted the barbell.
I could feel that the insect was struggling desperately, and I, I felt the beads of sweat on my forehead like running water, and I only felt that my whole body was hot, and an inexplicable sense of restlessness emanated from my body.
An irrepressible breath erupted rapidly from the heat, and before I could stop it, it rushed out of my body, and yes, I didn't even have time to shut up.
A piercing and sharp sound came out of my mouth, just like when I was in elementary school, the class leader accidentally scratched the blackboard with his fingertips when he wiped the blackboard, I subconsciously frowned, and covered my ears tightly with both hands, trying to resist the inexplicable irritating but unstoppable sound.
Of course I tried to keep my mouth shut, but the voice seemed to be mocking me, and no matter how tightly my mouth was closed, the shrill sound didn't go away at all, not even a little bit, to be precise.
As the voice came out again and again, I seemed to hear this voice, gradually, there was a trace of echo, could it be that there is another insect in this ghost place, it is the brother of the insect just now, wife?
I put down my hands a little frustratedly, and simply pricked up my ears, trying to tell if there was any voice that replied after the scream.
It didn't seem to be an echo, but as the frequency of the screams became weaker and weaker, the rustling sound seemed to become more and more pronounced.
It's like ......
It's like there are tens of thousands of bugs crawling towards you.
If Cui Lian had seen the top of the widow's grave at this time, he would have seen that thousands of densely packed and colorful dots were gathering quickly and densely towards his location from all walls, corners, and crevices.
It was like a colorful flood coming towards him.
I stood where I was, at first concentrating on the direction of the voice, but finally I realized that the sound was coming from all directions, from the top of my head, from under my feet, and I didn't seem to have to listen carefully at all, and the person behind the sound appeared in front of my eyes.
This is a sea of insects, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a sea, and the insects that are overwhelming, layer upon layer, are surging in my direction.
I wanted to run, but at this time, my legs were like the trunk of a tree that had been rooted for hundreds of years, and I couldn't move even a minute, and in my mouth, the scream was so weak that I couldn't hear it clearly, perhaps, it had stopped, I don't know, my brain was swollen now, like a watermelon that was about to ripen, and I was really worried that it would crack open on its own like the watermelon, revealing the red flesh inside.
The sea of insects, as if he hadn't noticed that there was such a person standing in front of him, as if they were surging just now, directly overshadowed Cui Lian himself.
Layer after layer of insect sea covered me tightly, like a quilt, cutting off all perception from the outside world, and even the air became thinner and thinner.
Silence once again became the theme song of this tomb, and the whole tomb was quiet as if no one had ever come, as if the dense sea of insects had never been.
After a while.
"Whew...... Whew......"
Bursts of noise came from under the sea of worms, and the sound was a little faint.
"Whew......"
At this moment, those insects that have quieted down like grains of sand and stones, a little restless, they move, but they don't have a clear goal as before.
They're whirling around.
"Huh."
This time, a loud and clear voice came out again, and at this time, those insects that were still spinning around wildly just now seemed to have regained their previous discipline, slowly surging in the direction they came.
The sea of insects rushed to the side of the fierce son, paused, and then, like ants moving, the bodies of several people surged like a relay to the place where they went to the tomb, and then retreated into the tomb like a tide, and dispersed.
I walked at the end, watched the sea of worms gush out of the cave, and as if it had touched a flame, quickly dispersed back into the corner of the cave, and without any further sound, I walked out of the tomb in silence and walked under the bright starry sky.
I'm a little tired, I can't say where, I just feel so heavy.
I sat down slowly and sat next to Mengzi, but I was still tired.
I was like the shadow of a bamboo pole, and I slowly lay back, looking at the vast starry sky, unconscious.
