Chapter 21: Truth or Illusion
Aren't these people already dead?
A look of disbelief appeared on my face, and a sense of fear came over me that I had never felt before. The old bustard also opened his mouth very wide, his fat tongue was about to hang out, and his face was frozen with surprise. Although we saw the scene with our own eyes, we never came back to our senses.
On that train, the bustard and I looked at the bodies of the passengers, and we could tell that except for the two of us and the spy, none of them were spared, including the yellow bugs that kept pouring out later. But now, the passengers are standing in front of us intact, as if they have been "resurrected".
"Fuck, what the hell is going on? Aren't all those people dead? I saw that their bodies were all a little decomposed, and one of his grandmothers' heads had been caught in the door, why was there nothing now? The bustard's mouth was still wide open, one by one.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing, obviously those people were dead, why are they still walking alive? I said to the old guard, "But we really saw those people dead, and a whole bunch of yellow worms, which would burrow into human flesh!" ”
The old guard beside him laughed dryly, his face was very stiff, and he seemed to be a little sleepy. Apparently he dismissed my words as nonsense.
Seeing him smile like this, I immediately became anxious, I was anxious, anxious to make him believe what I said. Immediately, I thought of the wound on my leg: "Yes, yes, I'll show you, that bug got into my calf flesh, there's a blood hole, I'll show you!" ”
I rolled up my trousers and muttered as I scrambled to untie the cloth that was tied to them. But when the cloth covering my head was completely torn off, I was stunned: the bloody hole in my leg was gone!
I couldn't believe what I was seeing, but the calf was really intact, there was not a trace of blood, not even a trace of blood! The bustard was also surprised and couldn't speak, indeed, he watched my wound drain pus, and saw that I couldn't stand up in pain, and it was also the wound he helped me bandage with his own hands.
The old bustard looked stunned for a while, then turned his head and asked me, "Xu Xuan, do you still have pain in your leg?" ”
As soon as the bustard said this, I suddenly realized one thing: it seems that since I got off the train, the pain in my leg has disappeared in an instant, and I no longer stumble when I walk, just like I have never been injured at all!
At this moment, the passengers who had disembarked from the train were already a few steps away. is the same as when I saw them get into the car, they are as quiet as pond stagnant water, and their faces are surprisingly flat, and it can be said that there is no excessive expression. They were carrying luggage or briefcases, and they walked towards us one after another.
The bustard and I both involuntarily straightened our backs and swallowed our saliva, as if we had seen a lonely ghost, we didn't dare to move, and the muscles on our faces trembled from time to time.
Soon, the group of passengers came to us, almost close to our chests. At that moment, I felt a chill in my chest and abdomen, and then a cold wind blowing from their walks on my face. I immediately shuddered. It was at that time that I saw their faces up close, their eyebrows flat, their eyes looking straight ahead but blankly, their mouths tightly closed, like rows of prisoners in chains.
In about ten seconds, the "resurrected" passengers passed in front of us in turn, and the bustard and I were also stunned for more than ten seconds. The cold feeling can be felt, like pieces of fish scales glittering with cold light, scraping across our cheeks.
We didn't react until they were all gone, our eyes were still wide open, and what we saw before us was like a mallet hitting our heads. What the hell is going on, watching those people die thoroughly, and now seeing them alive and passing by in front of us, these two contradictory "personal eyes" make my mind a little confused.
"! What the hell is going on? Obviously we still saw it on the train. The old bustard scolded, he also had a headache about the current situation, and he didn't know which was true and which was false.
The wind whistled around them. I don't know if it's because I don't wear a coat, or because of the low temperature of the air around me, or because of the eerie cold caused by the strange atmosphere, I always feel very cold, and I can't help but wrap my clothes tightly.
At this time, a thought suddenly crossed my mind, and then I said: "You say, could it be that what we saw on the train is all an illusion?" ”
The old bustard was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes suddenly lit up, and his face showed an expression that seemed to have suddenly realized, and he pointed his finger in mid-air, and exclaimed, "Probably! It's possible! None of the people on the train died, but what we both saw was probably an illusion, some dead people, some corpses, and all those yellow bugs. This train is indeed quite evil. ”
I lowered my head and thought about it, then quickly raised my head and said, "Old bustard, do you remember, it's the spy you met in the car, and when you were sleeping, he blew a cigarette at you and woke you up, and then you saw a train of dead people. Before that, I also ran into this guy when I went to the bathroom, and he also spat in my face, and then I saw a corpse. So I think maybe there's something wrong with that cigarette. ”
The old bustard nodded: "Yes! That smoke may be a kind of drug, I have heard that people in the underworld will use the spices of the Western Regions to frame others, the smoke that comes out of the incense after it is lit will be inhaled into the nose and hallucinate, and the sights we see on the train may be the hallucinations produced in our heads after inhaling those smokes, which are all fake. That spy must also be a demon thief, and he must have been responsible for these things, and the purpose was the silver mask in our hands. ”
Me: "It seems that the word of this mask has gotten out, and the agent may still be spying on us both now, what should we do?"
Bustard: "We have to go to the tailor's village immediately and connect with the informant arranged by Liu Da's crooked mouth, so that it will be more or less safe." If the news spreads even more at that time, and the people on the road come to grab the live, it will be that the duck will fly before it is cooked, and neither of us will be able to catch half a drop of oil and water. ”
I think too, this place really can't stay for long. So we steadied our duffel backpacks and walked towards the waiting hall. After leaving the waiting hall, we can go to the village in the lower reaches of the Yellow River.
