All I knew was that it was a board, not too wide, but very high, and it seemed to be wrapped in a thick leather at the bottom of the board, and when I pulled it open, I only felt a lot of friction underneath, but I didn't hear any sound.

On the other side of the board, there is a large bright space, and I don't have the heart to take a closer look at what's inside due to the urgency of the situation.

The boiling water in the distance suddenly increased its speed as if it had learned that we were going to escape, and it was almost a meter away from us in the blink of an eye.

Wu Lin's lungs have problems, and I am afraid that he will not be able to recover from his injuries for a while, so I plan to push him in first.

But as soon as I turned around, Wu Lin's foot pressed against my thigh, and he pushed me violently, and I lost my balance on the spot, staggered a few steps in a row, and bent into the doorway.

Wu Lin also rushed in, and when he came in, he grabbed the edge of the door with both hands, and struggled to pull the door panel back on.

The boiling water flowed very fast, and when it was seen that there was a gap five or six centimeters wide in the door panel before it could be closed, streams of boiling water and steam came in through the cracks.

Wu Lin's trouser leg was suddenly wet, and the back of his fingers instantly burned a large piece of blistering.

But this guy was so painful that he closed the door shut.

I don't know if I was shocked by the boiling tide or what, I didn't go over to help in the first place, and it wasn't until the door panel was closed again that I staggered to my feet and ran to Wu Lin's side to check on his injuries.

As soon as Wu Lin saw me walking towards him, he immediately waved at me, as if he didn't want me to pass.

I stood less than a meter away from him, bent over and asked him, "Are you okay?" ”

Wu Lin first swung his hand vigorously for a while, and after a long time, he struggled to squeeze out three words from his lungs: "Okay." ”

This guy's tone is still terribly cold, but there is a stubbornness that borders on paranoia in his words.

In fact, I can probably guess that the most serious injuries on his body were not the blisters on his fingers and ankles, but the lungs that were blown up.

He didn't seem to want me to know that his stamina and lungs were much worse than mine.

After running for so long, I was only breathing a little fast, but his lungs exploded.

But when has this been, what's the point of you caring about these things?

I didn't understand what Wu Lin meant, and he probably didn't need my understanding, and when the injury was lighter, he turned sideways and turned his face to the side of the door panel, leaving only my back.

Seeing him like this, I didn't want to say anything more, so I turned around and looked around.

At present, it is a stone hall with an area of about 50 square meters, except for the walls made of blue bricks on all sides and six or seven ear lamps, there is nothing in the huge space.

This place seems to be a shelter specially built to avoid the boiling tide.

After about two or three minutes, Wu Lin finally came to his senses, and sighed to himself: "Alas, nine deaths and one life." I knew I wouldn't come in with you. ”

I don't know when it began, his personality seems to have stabilized, and his tone is still cold, but the words he says seem to be very easy-going.

I glanced back at him, "Are you okay again?" ”

"What do you mean I'm okay again? I was fine. cough cough cough - cough ......"

He had just snapped up, followed by a series of coughs.

It seems that this guy, like me, heals quickly from external injuries and bone injuries, but it takes a while for internal organs to heal.

I walked up to him and crouched down and raised my chin at him, "I mean, your personality has returned, and you look exactly the same now as you did when you first went to my grocery store." To be honest, I've thought you'd be a psychopath a few times along the way. ”

Wu Lin squeezed his eyes at me: "Grocery store, aren't you a thrift store?" ”

The corners of my mouth twitched: "Slip of the tongue." ”

The twitching of the corners of his mouth seemed to be uncontrollable, and after saying these two words, he still kept twitching.

Wu Lin's tone was terribly cold, and it had a taste of rejecting people thousands of miles away, but whether it was the words or expressions he used when he spoke, he looked extremely peaceful.

This combination makes people feel very incongruous.

How to put it, it seems to be ...... In front of you stood a rough old man covered in muscular bumps, and he was talking to you about his junior high school homeroom teacher's extortion of money from their family, and when he was excited, his eyebrows were all twisted together, and he made a fierce look, but his voice was thinner than that of an underage girl.

Forget who said that contrast often leads to beauty. But I think the contrast is not necessarily flowers, and it may also be cow dung.

Wu Lin saw that the corners of my mouth were twitching, so he frowned and asked me, "Your face is cramping?" ”

I raised a hand to cover the corner of my mouth, shook my head, and said nothing.

In fact, when I think about the scene at that time, I feel strange myself, obviously I am in such a place where danger lurks everywhere, and I have just experienced life and death, but when I get along with Wu Lin, my mind will always desert and think about some nonsense.

As soon as I said this, I suddenly realized that it seemed like this every time I saw Wu Lin.

According to other people who knew Wu Lin well, Wu Lin would become abnormal every time he saw me.

In that fifty-square-meter stone room, Wu Lin and I kept this silence all the time. Outside the stone gate, the sound of water flowing did not stop for a moment, and the high temperature of the boiling water gradually penetrated the heavy stone wall, pulling the temperature in the stone room up.

The Ice Silkworm Gu is indeed a good thing, after the temperature rises, I just feel that my skin is slightly numb, and I don't feel anything else, Wu Lin avoided the stone gate far away in the morning, and sat in the deepest part of the stone room and kept fanning his palms, trying to use the weak wind to cool himself.

Later, it was Wu Lin who spoke to me first: "Don't worry, the temperature will not rise again." ”

It was still a cold tone, a calm expression and wording.

I nodded and didn't say anything.

After a while, Wu Lin spoke again: "I have a tumor in my body. ”

I turned to look at him, "Cancer? ”

"Didn't you just ask me why my personality keeps changing?" Wu Lin said: "Because I have a cancer in my body, that thing can control my mind and make me insane. But don't worry, every time it breaks my nerves, I heal myself quickly, and so far, I haven't done anything beyond my control. ”

I frowned and nodded, "I see." ”

Wu Lin said again: "It is said that this is the way of heaven. ”

There was no beginning or end to this, and I didn't know what he was trying to say, so I looked at him with very puzzled eyes.

Wu Lin then said to me: "The old pedant told me that no matter what happens, when you reach the state of poverty, you will develop in the opposite direction. What else to say, this is called 'Kanglong has regrets', in order to have no regrets, we survivors will have a bit of a stubborn disease that cannot be cured, he also said, I am because of this tumor in the body, it can be regarded as stable in the state of 'flying dragon in the sky', this is the ninety-five statue, Daji. Hey, what Ninety-Five Supreme, you see that I have lived until now, and I have not been an emperor for a day. ”

As soon as I heard these words, I couldn't help but laugh: "You don't understand what people mean at all." Kanglong has regrets, and the flying dragon is in the sky, these are all hexagrams, which belong to the Qiangua in the sixty-four hexagrams. Ninety-five is the fifth in the hexagram. In the Zhouyi Bagua, nine is yang, six yin, and this line in the Qiangua is about to be yang again, so it is called the ninth five, and because this line in the Qiangua is yang in the yang position, so it ......"

Before I could finish speaking, Wu Lin hurriedly waved his hand at me: "Okay, okay, don't gossip with me or anything, I don't understand at all." ”

"But that old pedant is right, people like us have too strong vitality, almost beyond the scope of the laws of nature, and they can be regarded as having regrets." I first said this with a smile, and then asked Wu Lin: "So, the old scholar you met has also learned sixty-four hexagrams, you say, will he also be a warlock?" ”

Wu Lin spread his hands: "I don't know about this." But you just said that you and my life force ...... It's too strong, so do you have something unclean on you? ”

I shook my head.

Wu Lin's tone became a little heavy: "The old pedant said that Kanglong must have regrets, and people like me will inevitably have a bad disease that cannot be cured." ”

He kept staring into my eyes as he spoke.

I understood what he was trying to say, and I knew that the evil disease that could suppress me would sooner or later be inflicted on me.

This is the way of heaven, and I can't escape it.

At this time, I was even thinking that maybe in the second master, there is at least a disease that can never be cured.

Wu Lin probably saw that my face was not right, so he quickly changed the topic: "This tide will last for five or six hours before it recedes, so we have to wait." ”

I glanced at Wu Lin and nodded silently.

After that, he kept squatting there and looking at me, his eyes not moving, as if if if he didn't keep an eye on me like that, I would do something very unreliable, such as suicide or something.

I was stared at by him all the time, I couldn't tell the awkwardness in my heart, and I couldn't get out for a while, so in order to divert his attention, I could only take the initiative to speak: "Why did you choose such a place as Bohai Bay?" ”

Wu Lin was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood what I meant, and asked me, "Did you talk about the Pansha Formation?" ”

I nodded: "Bao has a guess that you set up a sand formation in Bohai Bay to kill some locals. But I don't think this argument is reliable, and it took so much effort to kill a few irrelevant people, is it any good for you?

Wu Lin may have maintained a posture for too long, his arms and legs were a little stiff, he broke his shoulders and knees, first let the key be a little more flexible, and tossed for a moment before saying to me: "Correct you two things first, the sand formation has nothing to do with me, don't you you, I am not all the way with those people, although I do do things for the funeral sect at present, but I will leave after taking the money, and from then on, each will go all the way to find his own mother, and the well water will not interfere with the river water." Second, with the urine nature of the funeral religion, it is indeed possible that they will go to great lengths just to kill a few more irrelevant people, and their purpose is also very simple, that is, to disrupt your business. However, this time the sand formation was arranged in Bohai Bay, and it was indeed not for the purpose of killing. ”
