Chapter 4: Phantom of the Dream Demon
On the other hand, Xiao Hai anxiously grabbed his hair, lowered his head and walked back and forth to find an exit, and finally sat on the ground in a daze. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoHe was in a secret room made of four walls of earth, with an old rusty candlestick in the corner, and the white candlelight was dying on his mission. He looked around a little dazed, not knowing what was going on, not knowing how he got in. I only remember that night in the corpse pile, my brother suddenly woke him up and punched him hard, when a powerful dizziness hit, he fainted, and when he woke up, he was already here.
Xiao Hai's eyes carefully examined the small space, not sparing an inch, hoping to find an exit. If he can get in, he will definitely be able to get out!
Finally, he landed his gaze on a small, barely visible white spot in the corner above his head. Xiao Hai carefully picked up the candlestick, walked over and stood on tiptoe, the white dot was nothing else, it was a small white flower! The core of the flower is pink, like blood dripping on the snow.
There are flowers here?
Although he has little culture, he still knows that the most basic needs of plants are sunlight and water.
There's nothing in it, so how do flowers survive?
Xiao Hai raised his arm curiously, his fingertips could barely touch the edge of the petals, the soft touch was a real flower! But it made him even more confused......
Xiao Hai has a problem, when he is particularly nervous and extremely confused, he will habitually bite his nails.
But this time, when he just put his finger in his mouth, he felt a faint sweet smell of blood permeating his mouth...... He put down his hand in a panic, and in the light of the miserable white candlelight, his dirty fingers and stomachs were actually imperceptible thin cuts! The blood inside was like beads with broken threads, slowly oozing out drop by drop.
Three fingers, all the same! This hand is the hand that has just touched the flower......
He should have thought that since this flower could bloom in this sealed and waterless desert underground, it must not be simple!
Xiao Hai looked up, gritted his teeth, simply didn't do anything, jumped up and grabbed the flower with one hand, wanting to pull it down to see what kind of play it was, anyway, the wound didn't hurt, it was a big deal to be hurt a few more times! Who knew that this flower was firmly clamped in the sand, and he couldn't pull it off!
"It's evil...!" Xiao Hai unwillingly increased his strength again, who knew that as soon as the words fell, the flower instantly enlarged infinitely in his hand! It grows luxuriantly at an astonishing rate. At the same time, he also saw clearly that the edge of the white petals was densely crenellated and imperceptible! Razor-sharp! If it weren't for the magnification of the flower, which would be difficult to detect, it would be no wonder that his hand would hurt and he would not feel pain.
At this time, the red core in the stamen became more vivid, and the color was so bright that it made people feel terrible, as if the blood basin of the monster was roaring at him with a fierce mouth. But what made him feel even more terrible was that he couldn't let go of his hand! Xiao Hai regretted his recklessness and wanted to leave the flower quickly, but who knew that his hand was firmly attached to the flower and couldn't let go! Suddenly, a peculiar fragrance hit, the smell was so strong that Xiao Hai's head was dizzy, and when he looked at it, there was a viscous green liquid flowing in the middle of the stamens, and a big lump of mud and a lump of ticking flowed out, so it was not disgusting.
Suddenly, boom! There was a loud bang, like thunder and roaring, shaking the heavens and the earth, the secret room shook violently, and Xiao Hai hung in mid-air and did not advance, nor did he retreat, just like the prisoners on the ancient beheading platform who were about to be slaughtered.
Pieces of sand and dirt fell from the top layer and smashed on him, not good... This secret room is going to collapse!
Xiao Hai broke free and wanted to escape, but he couldn't let go of his hand at all. His eyes were red in a hurry, and he looked around in a hurry, and suddenly stopped struggling again in a deflated breath - all around was closed, and even if he let go of his hand, where would he escape?
The chamber shook more and more, and as the sand fell, the top layer, behind the huge white flowers, was actually a coiled and interlaced flower stem! They gradually emerged from the sand and coiled tightly on the top layer, no wonder Xiaohai couldn't pull it down just now, there was such a big foundation behind this flower! If you look closely, the blackened green stem is still active! They squirmed back and forth in this small space, like thick cyan pythons, as if they would raise their heads at any moment and spit blood at him!
Xiao Hai gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, trying to pull out the hand holding the flower, but the more he tried to pull it out, the tighter it sticked. Xiao Hai felt a sticky liquid flowing out of the gap in his hand, could it be that the liquid secreted by this flower core flowed to the back?
This huge flower couldn't see anything clearly in front of Xiao Hai's eyes, he looked back at it with his neck up, and couldn't help but be surprised, what kind of liquid was it, it was clearly his blood! The tail of the flower was connected to the stem, and at the end of his hand, a bunch of thorns grew! It has penetrated his hand, and it is miserable......
But even so, Xiao Hai still didn't feel it at all! There was not the slightest pain!
What the is this!
Xiao Hai scolded secretly, he came back to his senses but saw the core of the flower in front of him, and if he looked closely, this flower turned out to be wheezing! The liquid that flowed from it was like greedy saliva on him, and an ominous premonition surged into Xiao Hai's heart, could it ...... Just listen to the "boom" of the secret room! With a bang, pieces of sand and dirt quickly fell, and the whole ground was shaking, and it seemed that in less than a minute, he would have to be buried in the ground with this play!
Not good! Xiao Hai's head was hit by a huge piece of sand, and in an instant, a stream of heat flowed down his forehead... He only felt that the world was spinning, his head was dizzy, and he saw that pieces of sand and dirt were falling towards him! said that it was too late, and the core of the flower suddenly opened a huge black opening, and before Xiaohai could react, he was actually sucked into the flower!
A dark ......
I can't see anything clearly, is it in its stomach?
A strange fragrance filled Xiao Hai's nostrils, and he felt like he was about to be vomited by the smell.
He touched the injured hand, and although he couldn't see clearly, he could feel more than a dozen wounds of different sizes, and strangely, the pierced palm still didn't feel pain.
After a while, the smell seemed to be less intense, the pain in his head was reduced, and Xiao Hai's thoughts were a little clearer, but he couldn't believe that he was in the belly of a flower now!! It's a space that's even more oppressive than in a secret room.
Because the "belly" of this flower is too narrow, he can't lift it up, so he can only lie on his stomach. Xiao Hai didn't want to sit still, although he didn't know what to do, but waiting at the moment was never the way. After thinking about it, he crawled forward on his knees.
You might even be able to climb out!
After crawling for a while, the wet and soft road was more bumpy than Xiao Hai imagined, he moved forward little by little, but he was so depressed that he couldn't breathe, and the space seemed to be even narrower than just now...... Even, Xiao Hai doesn't even have room for his arms to move, at this moment he is like a wine plug caught in the bottleneck, he can't retreat, he can't get in. Xiao Hai eagerly climbed forward, but the soft walls inside the flower were like a thin quilt covering his body, completely clinging to him, and he didn't even have room to breathe.
It seems, it's narrower than just now....... Strange, something seems wrong...... Wait a minute! Wrong! Be....... It's the wall that's slowly closing!
Xiao Hai was startled by his sudden thought, he calmed down, touched the wall up and down with both hands, and felt it carefully...... That's right! These two walls are beating again and again, very small movements, it is easy to be ignored by the nervous nerves, but at this moment, I can clearly feel that the walls are merging little by little! Damn it! Wouldn't I have to be suffocated by it!?
Thinking like this, Xiaohai was anxious again. He fluffed back and forth, hoping to make a little more space, but to no avail. Suddenly, a thought that he hadn't thought of for a long time came to mind -- at this moment, his flustered behavior was like the fish in Uncle Xiang's pot when he was cooking Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
......
"This fish has to be eaten fresh! The meat is fresh and tender! Uncle Xiang took a cigarette in his mouth and suddenly burst out of a sentence. Aunt Xiang was afraid of seeing blood, so she hid in the courtyard and set off firecrackers with Da Lei. Xiao Hai stood behind Uncle Xiang, looking at the fish in the pot that was splashed back and forth by the hot oil star, and was speechless.
It's obviously dead, how can it be that it seems to be alive in the pot?
If you are in the pot, you must be in pain......
He had no appetite at all that night, and the fish had barely eaten much, and he was absent-minded the whole time, and as soon as he looked up, he could see the abrupt and conspicuous fish staring at him with wide, mutilated eyes and open mouths on the table full of sumptuous dishes......
Since then, he has never eaten fish again.
Xiao Hai even had a hallucination now, he turned his face sideways, pressed against the soft wall of the flower, as if lying on the skin of the fish after the scales had been shaved, soft, smooth, with a kind of wet mucus......
Or rather, he's the fish.
Suddenly, a spirit all over his body, a rush of urine hit, violently making Xiaohai unable to parry, and his bladder seemed to be about to explode! Strange, since he got lost in the desert, he hasn't experienced this kind of urine for a long time, and besides, he hasn't eaten a drop of water for the past two days, why is the urine so intense?
Could it be that it is caused by the squeezing of this wall?! didn't have time to think about it, Xiao Hai shivered, and his crotch was warm......
Comfortable...
Suddenly, Xiao Hai obviously felt that both sides of the wall road trembled a few times, and then a strange force behind him pushed him forward, and with a bang, Xiao Hai only felt that he seemed to be pushed to the end by that strange force, and his body fell down quickly, and before he could shout, his butt hit the ground. Yes, it's on the ground! It's a hard stony floor!
Xiao Hai gritted his teeth and wailed on his ass, and his mouth was crooked in pain. But fortunately, the tail bone is not broken.
He relieved himself and got up little by little, covered in the mucus in the flower's body, which was so thick and uncomfortable. Xiao Hai rubbed his eyes, his vision became a little clearer, although it was still very dark, he could barely see the road. He was in a stone cave, with many forks in front of him, and there were stone caves in the forks, and he didn't know which one was the exit.
The foul smell was gone, and it seemed that he had come out of the belly of the flower. Even now, he still doesn't believe it, could it be that he should be afraid of peeing?
It was dark and damp, and the clammy breath penetrated into his pores, making him shiver with cold. Xiao Hai looked around, the stone walls full of ravines and cracks exuded a strange dark blue in the dim light, especially the stone caves, which were black like traps full of unknowns, and I didn't know which one was right.
Suddenly, as if sensing something, Xiao Hai held his breath, his ears nervously pricked up to listen, and in this silent and uninhabited cavern, a sound echoed, small and distant, full of temptation to tease him. The voice....... Every time he tried to confirm his suspicions, the voice disappeared again.
His grandma's! There is no end to playing Lao Tzu!
Xiao Hai was a little angry, he picked up the gravel on the ground, and threw it towards the stone caves in front of him.
......
Wait a minute!
......
Just! Just as he finished throwing the stones, the sound was visibly amplified! Echo over and over again along the stone cave! Could it be ...... Xiao Hai couldn't wait to pick up another pile of stones and threw them towards these stone caves, holding his breath nervously.
The voice came again.
That's right...... That's right! Some stones entered the cave, and there was only the sound of bumping, but... But there was a stone cave, and there was a distinct sound of "Plop!" ā...
Is that...... That's the sound of water!
Water... Ah, water! Xiao Hai was overjoyed, he picked up some more stones, and staggered to the mouth of the stone cave where the sound came from, he stared at the darkness inside, without the slightest fear, he couldn't hold back his excitement at all, and his hand almost trembled and threw stones inside.
Thump... It is also accompanied by the sound of splashing water.
Ha ha! Xiao Hai danced happily, what had just happened had already been thrown out of the clouds. At this moment, he is in no mood at all, and he has no time to think about why there is a stone cave buried under the thousands of acres of yellow sand, and how can there be water here, the instinct of human survival He only knows that water is his life.
Xiao Hai almost rushed to the stone cave, the ground was bumpy and difficult, but he couldn't care so much, the sharp stone pierced the blood blisters on his feet, a large stream of pus and blood flowed out, the wound was bloody and bare, and his whole person was numb like a living dead of the walking dead.
Suddenly "pop" made Xiao Hai come back to his senses, he listened carefully where the sound came from, stood for a long time and found that the sound actually came from under his feet, he lowered his head in surprise, only to find that what he was stepping on was actually water!
The cold touch was instantly sensed by the brain, and Xiao Hai looked at the water flow under his feet, and in front of him, there was a large pool of water!
His mouth trembled and he couldn't say a word, and he ran over and squatted down with tears of joy, and drank the water in his mouth.
Water! It's really water!
Sweet... It's so sweet! It's so cold and refreshing!
He only felt that his already chapped body was all saturated with moisture, and he lowered his head and drank until his stomach was about to explode before he stopped talking. Xiao Hai wiped his mouth with satisfaction, thinking about what to do next, but after relieving himself, he found that his stomach had been cold and uncomfortable, as if his body was chilling, and the cool air was surging outward, Xiao Hai's throat was itchy, and he spit out a mouthful of blood without control! In an instant, his stomach turned over and Haitian hurt, Xiao Hai fell to the ground and covered his stomach with an ugly face, it seemed that he was too drunk and his body couldn't stand it!
Xiao Hai groaned in a low voice and curled himself up into a ball, for a long time, the pain slowly disappeared, he struggled to get up, who knew that when he looked up, there was a figure in front of him!
The figure sat on the stone, and Xiao Hai couldn't see the person's appearance clearly in the dim stone cave, but guessed that it was a woman, her hair was long and disheveled, and she seemed to be holding something in her hand, sitting there quietly.
"Who's there!?"
Is there anyone else in this? How can a girl's family run away from this wilderness? Are there any accomplices? What is the purpose?
Countless questions bubbled in Xiao Hai's heart, and he stared at the woman tightly, but the other party hummed a song as if he couldn't hear what he asked.
It seems that she should be holding a child in her arms.
Xiao Hai stretched her neck to see that what she was holding in her arms should not be a baby, the size of a child.
The woman hummed softly, the old nursery rhyme was particularly creepy in the burrow, humming and humming, and the woman suddenly cried, but the constant whispering in her mouth was not audible.
Xiao Hai got up and walked over tentatively and asked, "You... What happened to you? ā
"Head," the woman sobbed, "the child's head can't be found......"
Boom, Xiao Hai only felt that the hairs on his body stood up, his eyes subconsciously looked at the child, the small stiff body, there was no head!
"Ahh Xiao Hai's legs were weak, he sat on the ground, and scurried backwards vigorously.
The woman said over and over again, "Head, do you see my child's head?" ā
Xiao Hai was so frightened that his crotch was wet, and his hand touched the sticky liquid, and when he lifted it, it turned out to be blood! He looked back, and the water he had just drunk behind him now seemed to be a pool of blood!
There was a round solid floating in the center of the pool of blood, and the thing floated around, and it was none other than the child's head! The flesh on his face has been soaked and rotted and turned outward, his eye sockets are full of dense maggots, and his fat white bodies are squirming.
The strong feeling of nausea made the pain in the stomach that had just dissipated more intense in an instant, and the stomach turned over, and Xiao Hai bent down and couldn't help but vomit.
In the dim light, he vomited on the ground, in addition to the acid water, there were pitch black shelled worms, some of which had been chewed to pieces by him, and some of which were still struggling and wriggling......
Xiao Hai frowned in pain, and finally vomited until he almost vomited out of bile. He wiped his mouth, a bad desire welled up in his heart, and before he could react, a pair of cold and piercing hands caressed his neck, and then increased the force as if it was about to penetrate his neck!
"Uh.... cough cough..... "Xiao Hai couldn't breathe, and he opened his mouth wide to breathe, but to no avail.
A hoarse voice came from his ears: "Do you think I'm beautiful?" ā
With the smell of decay burrowing into his nose, his consciousness became more and more blurred, and in a trance, he seemed to see that the hole not far away was closing little by little, and the already dim light was getting smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared.
It was pitch black.
