The space you fall into isn't deep, but it's weird. When it lands on the ground, it is soft and does not feel pain, but I can't see my fingers.

The old man spoke from the top: "Don't wait too long, our king will come to you." Then there was a snap, the space was closed, and the footsteps left. I don't know what my mood was at the time when I was only five years old, but for me at this moment, the surprise was greater than the panic. From the analysis of the old man's words, he was murderous to me, and it seemed that this place was a slaughterhouse.

But apart from feeling some tightness in my chest, I didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. I got up from the ground, and my hand was so soft that I fell down again after a second when I stood up, and there was nowhere to focus on my feet. After trying it a few times, it turned out to be like this, and I was discouraged to think that it would not be to lock me up here and starve me to death. I never thought that I would really say it!

Because of the long-term training by the commander, the concept of time points is very accurate, and after twelve hours, I am hungry. Fortunately, I have a habit of hiding food close to my body, and when I took out the dry cake wrapped in oiled paper and was about to eat it, I heard a strange movement above my head. The old man's laughter was coming from far and near, but I couldn't help frowning, how could this laughter be so abnormal?

"I knew you were the fiercest wolf of all, and you dared to instigate those useless people to kill me. Hahaha, I'm not mistaken, come on, come on, the old man will give you another ride. ”

Listening to this crazy talk, I subconsciously looked up, only to hear the sound of brushing, and a gap was opened. Thinking of something, he rolled on the spot, and a dark shadow blocked the gap and fell straight down. I thought it was someone who was left behind by the old man, but I didn't think about the muffled snort that accompanied the sound of heavy smashing, it was the old man, and I couldn't help but be surprised.

Why was he left behind?

A childish crisp voice came from the top: "Old guy, the master won't play with you anymore, you can stay in the grave you dug yourself." My heart rate jumped uncontrollably, and I squinted at the small gap, as if a small figure was standing there. Who is it? Who is he? I asked myself urgently.

There was a roar of demons from hell, and at that moment, there was a sudden noise, and the gap on the top suddenly widened, and the small figure rolled down. I couldn't reach it and didn't have time to react, and my body was hit, and it hurt even more than when I fell down on my own. Looking at each other, it was a pair of black eyes, with a wise light in them, and it was a boy.

The gap in the top was closed in an instant, and it disappeared into darkness. The old man smiled: "My king, my king, this is the old man's altar specially for you, how can you not be prepared at all?" ”

Altar? My heart trembled. I've been here for more than ten hours, and I don't feel anything special.

The boy on top of him was somersaulting to get up, but he was only halfway through his feet and fell down again, and this time he got out of the way and fell next to me. Then came the old man's painful snort, and the boy spoke: "The old guy still pulls a cushion to death, right, since everyone can't live, then I don't need to be polite to you." A few more sounds accompanied by the old man's gasp, and I could roughly understand that the old man must have been injured, and the boy was angry after falling down with him, and was kicking the other man's wounds.

When he spoke again, the old man's voice was obviously weak: "If the old man is dead, you will never want to go out again." ”

The boy sneered: "Don't worry, I will definitely be able to think of a way to get out after you die, and I don't have to worry about you." But I can close my eyes and rest in peace, for the sake of your many 'care' for me, I will give you a spirit card for this ruined city, so that you can keep it forever and eternally. ”

"Oh, that's fine, thank you for your grace." The old man's words suddenly changed: "Do you know why this body is soft and not strong?" ”

I was watching from the sidelines, and I couldn't help but prick up my ears when I heard the words. For the first ten hours, I couldn't sit still indifferent, and I had almost touched everything I could look around, and it was all a soft substance, and I couldn't tell what it was.

I only heard the old man say: "I tell you, under you is our Chu people." ”

"Chu people?" The boy questioned. I don't understand, what does it mean to be a Chu person under me? The old man asked strangely, "Didn't you look for it in Chu City?" Have you ever found any traces of people? ”

I didn't know what was going on, but the boy grabbed me by the arm, dug his nails into my flesh, and asked, "What do you mean......?" The old man laughed again, this time looking a little desolate: "Yes, they are all here." This place is the Elysium after the death of our Chu people, with the change of time and the turn of time, blood and flesh are connected, and finally achieve the same life. ”

I began to feel my scalp tingling, and my body trembled, no, not only me, but the hand that had been pulled into my arm was trembling, and I heard the boy next to me whisper in a trilling voice: "You are talking nonsense." ”

But the old man didn't seem to hear him speak, and he immersed himself in his thoughts: "How good is this, the Chu people will always be with the Chu people, they will not be mixed with any lowly blood, and they will not leave this Chu city, I will call this place the land of eternity." ”

"Maniac!" The boy burst out two words from between his teeth.

It's really crazy, and what makes me even more crazy is that these soft corpses under me are actually human corpses! The strange thing is that the body is completely unrecognizable, and the old man said: blood and flesh are connected. Does it mean that the corpses are all connected? Why is this happening, shouldn't people corrode and turn into white bones after death, and even the bones will decay and disappear as the years go by, how can they become so soft and terrifying?

Wait a minute, the old man said "to achieve the same life", will this thing still be alive?

"It's not alive, it's all dead, it's because of some special reason that the corpse doesn't rot!" The boy said suddenly. I looked in his direction in amazement, how did he know what I was thinking? Mind reading?

The boy spoke again: "It's annoying enough, don't mess with the activity of your thoughts so much." Let me think about what to do. ”

"Don't think about it, you can't get out. The Chu people are immortal, the Chu people are immortal, what is it for when I come back desperately? It's that this still lacks a heart and a brain, you are the last king of our Chu people, you are the brain, as for the heart, there is no time to find it. Whether it's unintentional or not, it's complete. Wang, Yuan Feng has done his best, so he has come to follow you with allegiance. ”

The old man's voice grew quieter and quieter, and finally fell silent.

I only heard the boy grit his teeth and roar: "Nonsense, who is the brain?" Old guy you up! The boy gasped heavily, and it sounded like he had kicked twice, but the old man was no longer silent.

I was so anxious that I couldn't see because of the darkness, and was this dead? If it is really dead, then just looking at the height suspended from top to bottom, how can we two children get up? In addition, what does the old man's last words mean, what does it mean to lack a heart and a brain?

"He's saying that this soft thing under us is the body of all Chu people, but they all came to this space after death and became this state, and they still belong to dead things, if you press a human heart on it, a wise human brain, then it will live." The boy's mood was calm and his tone was very light, but his explanation made me think he was whimsical.

Even more outrageous, in this eerie atmosphere, I asked a question that had nothing to do with reality: "Who are you?" ”

As if he felt that there was a gaze on me in the dark, the boy asked, "I have to ask, who are you?" Without waiting for me to answer, he added, "This is the first time that there is a third person here besides the old fellow." As soon as he had said that, he brought me forward and slammed me headfirst against him, causing my scalp to ache, and his short hair was rudely grabbed and forced my face to tilt back.

When I felt the breath on my face, I realized that he seemed to be looking at me closely, but it was pitch black, and he could see clearly?

I was meditating when I was startled by his shout: "Say it! What do you have to do with the old guy? His body shuddered, his eyes widened in vain, but his mouth was tightly closed. The boy gloomily threatened: "If you don't say it, believe it or not, I'll leave you here alone?" Let you be the company of the old fellow and the corpses of these corpses, or ......" He laughed abruptly, and the hand that grabbed my hair touched my head instead, and then said, "It's not bad to look at this head, why don't you let this monster be that brain." ”

Hearing this, reason told me that I shouldn't be scared off by a child, but that was my adult mind, and I was only five years old at the time, and I was so frightened that I almost cried, and finally spoke, "I don't know him." I was on another island, and I was put in a wolf's cage for finishing last in a physical test, and then he asked the leader for me and brought me here. ”

"Another island? Not far from that? ”

I was silent, and he asked again: "How long did it take to get from that island to here?" I have a clear concept of time: "One hour and three minutes." The boy paused, muttering, "That shouldn't be very far." Then he asked, "What happened to you after you were put in a wolf cage?" ”

I did not dare to disobey him, and recounted the experience in the wolf's cage. After he finished speaking, he said, "You mean that the snow-white wolf not only didn't bite you, but also released you out of the cage?" I nodded subconsciously, and the head that was grabbed by his hand also came out of his palm, and he did not come to forcibly restrain me again, but only whispered: "Don't move, let me think about it." ”

After a moment of silence, I wanted to pull out the wrist that he had been grabbing, but as soon as I moved, he realized it, put pressure on my fingers, and asked, "Did the old guy say anything after he brought you here?" ”

I thought about it for a while, and read out the words that the old man cursed after finding that he was gone, and when I said the last sentence, "I will leave you to make the last sacrifice for my Chu", he grabbed my hand tightly, and then slowly released it and withdrew his palm. This time it was not dark, I could clearly feel his gaze on me, for a long time, he asked an inexplicable question: "How old are you?" I didn't understand why he was thinking so fast, but I honestly replied, "Five." ”

"It's good to be able to remember it so clearly at the age of five." He smiled, and the laughter creeped me up. But in the next moment, he changed his tone and said in a gentle tone: "Okay, I roughly understand that you have nothing to do with the old guy, so I won't pursue it." He patted me on the head as a gesture of friendship. <
