Thirty-four, the red-faced soul breaks the underwater city
Ali has always been careful to show me that she is truly in love, while I just treat our relationship as a game.
If it hadn't happened that we had met Yang Xiaoqi, I think I would have left her by now, sitting on my computer at home typing the necromantic file. Of course, I definitely don't care about how she feels, and I can't even think of her again.
But fate is so strange, God arranged for me to meet the protagonist of the 'Necromantic Files', and I was destined to have this fate.
The world is unpredictable, and the entanglement between me and Ali is short, but there is a feeling that my heart is torn.
***
I held her carefully, feeling guilty, sad, and fucking anger ......
Today, many years later, until I put into words what happened back then, I still don't dare to uncover that memory.
Ali.
This girl, who I don't even know her surname, ended up in the ancient city deep under the sea because she knew me.
I don't want to admit it, but the feeling of my heart being torn apart when I type this text is real. I don't know if it should be called love. If so, I can proudly say, 'Damn, Lao Tzu also had true love back then'.
Deep down, though, I don't want that pride. Because the price is just too great.
I'd rather never know you if I could. At the very least, we can still stick to our blue sky and be carefree.
If I could, I'd rather not write the Necromantic Files, because then I would never know you.
How I hope that it is me who stays in the ancient city under the sea, and how I hope that you will continue to be your boss lady in Qingyang Town.
If I could, I hope we were strangers. At least, you won't lose your life because of me.
Please forgive me for writing about my feelings at the moment in almost six hundred words. Although there are still a thousand words, but the love is long and short, after all, this book is developed with 'horror', not romance, and the editor will not make me too lyrical.
That's it, and I'll spend the rest of my life telling myself.
Getting back to the point, time goes back to the past.
Ali slowly stopped breathing in my arms, and it was not a good feeling for me to face the death of a person for the first time.
"Zhang Xin, if you can, can you let me marry ....." I kept thinking about the half of what Ali said before she died. Finally, imprinted in the heart.
The moment I saw her stop breathing, I was surprisingly calm, and I didn't know why. Is there no ripples left in that lake?
The beard patted me on the shoulder, signaling me not to be too sad.
He is a person who sees life and death very openly, which is what I heard Yang Xiaoqi say to me later. This person has always been like this since Wu Kai's death, and he is desperately looking for death in everything he does, as if Wu Kai's death left him behind.
I looked up, and Feijing also came over to comfort me and said, "This is an accident, no one wants it to happen." But things have come out, and we have to face them after all. Dude, look away. He sighed and said.
Ayumi didn't say anything on the side, and I didn't have the heart to look at her, only that she seemed to be even more silent.
"I'm going to take her out with me," I said firmly.
Beard tried to stop me from doing this very stupid thing, but was stopped by the flying mirror.
At this time, Ayumi said quietly on the side: "I'll help you take her out." As the saying goes, the fallen leaves return to the roots, and the soil is safe, and we can't leave her in this ancient city under the sea. "I was surprised that she could say something like that.
Although, in the end, we still couldn't get Ali out of the ancient city, but I still have to thank Ayumi for her sincerity.
I wrapped Ali's body in a waterproof bag and carried it behind my back. Feijing and Beard discussed the route, and we continued to walk towards the top floor of the palace.
This is the third layer, and the beard is roughly counted. It is preliminarily inferred that this palace is nine stories high, which shows the prosperity of this place.
There is a screen on the first floor, the second layer is a head burial, these three layers are seven coffins, what will the fourth layer be?
We didn't have any confidence in our hearts, and even now we haven't even found the passage to the fourth floor.
In addition to the coffin, there are insect corpses all over the ground, and we step on it to make a crackling sound, which feels like stepping on fish bubbles.
"It's fucking disgusting, you see there's worm marinade on these feet. Brother Dao, are you interested in trying it? The beard said to the flying mirror heartlessly.
Feijing ignored him and told him to find a way out quickly so that he could get out of here. It was evident that he was also disgusted by the corpses of insects all over the ground.
However, we walked all along the wall and did not find any passage. Hu Zi said that he couldn't help it, this place is very evil, and this broken palace doesn't know how Xu Fu built it back then, and even the doors are so hidden.
Feijing used his previous experience to make a judgment and asked Beard to say. Could this be Qimen Dunjia, where the walls on all four sides hide the door?
Beard said unlikely. You see, the entrance when we came was still there, if it was Qimen Dunjia, this entrance would definitely be blocked, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain?
Beard's words are not unreasonable, as long as it is impossible for the agency to do such a thankless task.
"So what's going on? It can't be that the palace is so high, right? I said.
Feijing shook his head and said, "We must have noticed something, where would the location of the door be?" He pondered for a while and said, this palace is definitely built upward, yes, there can be no way down, as long as we find a place where we can go up.
Except for the surrounding walls, there are no buildings built upwards. I think the problem is the wall.
Feijing finally made his own judgment.
Ayumi suddenly said at this time: "Not exactly. ”、。
Oh? We all looked at her in confusion.
Ayumi is not a talkative person, and now that she has opened her mouth, she must have made some great discoveries.
I put Ali's body on the ground for the time being, and said to Ayumi, "What do you mean by that?" Elaborate on that. ”。
Ayumi also seemed surprised that it was me who asked her and looked at me. Then he straightened his short hair a little and said, "I know that there is a kind of underwater secret passage on the edge of the Yellow River, first I want to go down to the waterway, and then at a corner suddenly go up to the sweat road." I guess it seems like the same possibility here.
I mean, is there a path under our feet that leads to some wall on one side and then suddenly goes up to the fourth floor? ”。
I frowned, thinking about the possibility of this.
By now, I've finally learned that any strange mechanism in this tomb is not surprising, and Ayumi's hypothesis may really be true.
The beard also nodded on the side and said: "There is some truth in what you said, then according to your opinion, where will the secret door beneath it."
Ayumi thought about it for a moment, and Dao should be the place that is most likely to be ignored.
Where is it most likely to be overlooked? Where?
Ayumi said: "Where was the first place we ruled out. It's easy to tell. ”。
She said to us confidently.
Beard and I looked at each other, both shook our heads and said we didn't know, and the last time I looked at the flying mirror, we looked confused.
Ayumi raised her hand and pointed to the seven coffins, and said to us, "Haven't you thought that the secret path will be in the coffin?" ”。
It dawned on me that sure enough, those coffins were indeed the first ones we ignored.
There were seven coffins, and we opened four of them to avoid the bugs. There are no hidden passages in these four coffins. In other words, there is a high chance that the possible dark passage will be in the remaining three coffins?
Opening the coffin is the beard's housekeeping skill, he snuffed out the cigarette in his hand with a snap, and said fiercely: "I'll come." ”。
"Slow". Feijing suddenly shouted.
Beard looked at him puzzled and asked what was wrong?
"If the exit is in this remaining coffin, what kind of traps will there be, and will it be dangerous for you to open it so recklessly?" Feijing asked worriedly.
The beard didn't appreciate it, and waved at the flying mirror to reassure him.
With that, he took a crowbar and very rudely knocked open one of the coffins. Inside was a female corpse, with a lifelike face and a very beautiful face, but the overly thick pink delicacy made it look a little bewitching.
The female corpse's cheeks were slightly bulging, apparently embalming. The beard swallowed his saliva and said that this girl must have embalming pearls in her mouth, and the owner of the tomb is really right, such a small girl is not afraid of choking on others if she has such a big thing in her mouth. Since we've met, let's do the girl a favor and take it out for her.
He said that he was about to do it, but he was beaten back by the flying mirror. Let him not be delusional, "This woman will not rot after death, obviously she suffered great resentment before her death, this bead is a corpse pill, if you take it out, this person will immediately raise the corpse." When the time comes, you will be able to see the 'female zongzi' that is widely popular in your industry. What do you think? If you want to see the world, feel free. But I can guarantee that your hand will definitely remain in the mouth of this female corpse. ”。
Feijing made a gesture of invitation to Beard after speaking, but Beard is not a fool, Feijing said it so clearly, he didn't dare to act rashly. After all, although he is not afraid of danger, it does not mean that he is mentally retarded.
He shook his head and said no need, and then began to move his hands to open another coffin, and this time he made a discovery.
The coffin was empty, there was nothing, not to mention the body, not even a decent strip of cloth. After making sure that there was no mechanism, Beard went over and tinkered with it for a while.
"It's empty underneath. There is only one stone slab for the bottom of the coffin. He jumped out of the coffin and said to us.
"Can you open it?" I asked.
Beard nodded, saying that this mechanism is not complicated, and it is easy to open. Then he took out an iron hook from the treasure chest, and struck it in a place inside the coffin, and then the stone slab really opened a gap.
Feijing gave a thumbs up and praised the beard, and then beckoned us to go.
He was the first to jump into the passage inside the coffin, and when I looked back to see Ali's body, I suddenly realized that something was wrong.
At that moment, I couldn't help but exclaim, and the beard behind me was also shocked, "Damn it, where is the corpse?" Can't you run away by yourself? ”。
