Chapter 116: Headless Figure
We were far away, our voices were so low that we couldn't hear each other at all, so we had to raise our voices and explain the situation we were encountering with each other succinctly?
While flashlighting overhead, I shone the masked man's surroundings while carefully dodging the blood and sand flowing from the front.
Although there is very little blood and sand now, it is still flowing without interruption, and even some of it has escaped the hollow at the top of the door and has been flowing down along the gate.
Approaching the door, there was a hill that had been piled up, and after a few glances, I noticed that the skulls, some of which had been pushed into the gap in the ground by the quicksand, had crawled a few more.
Our situation is not optimistic, the longer the time drags on, the greater the trouble, but the people above do not seem to have any sense of crisis, and always use "wait a minute" to dismiss us.
Our echo sounded here, and the lights flickered in front of us, fanning forward, for I feared that the three-headed serpent would crawl out of the other gaps, so I watched cautiously under my feet.
Searching the gaps around, there should be more than one such snake, but strangely, there are really no identical snakes crawling out of the few gaps near us.
Although this is a good thing, I always feel a little uneasy, but when I told Ham about it, the other party gave me a blank look, and used a flashlight to shine a light on the place I went to just now, "Maybe you are too unlucky, just one, but you met me." ”
I smiled wryly and responded, "My luck shouldn't be so bad!" "Disbelieving, I went to look at the other gaps, and along one of them, I stretched nearby, but I still didn't find any movement.
"Don't think too much about it, if we had this thing in every hole, we'd be in trouble, wouldn't it be better if we didn't have it?"
"I hope I'm thinking too much!" I muttered, but as soon as the words came out, I was stunned, and I seemed to have said such things before.
I felt like I must have missed something, but I couldn't remember anything now, so I had to put the problem back in place.
At the gaps in the black holes, the blood sand was leaking down, and I asked Ham, "Did you find anything over there, and what was under the gaps?" ”
Ham thought for a moment before he added, "Actually, it's weird, I see a lot of groove-like stuff down there, moving around!" ”
"Groove?" I was even more confused, but after repeating it, I had no idea and didn't know how to continue.
It was as if there was a wall of ropes wrapped in front of me, and I wanted to open them one by one, but in the face of such a complicated relationship, I instinctively repelled and let myself rest and avoid this huge trouble.
I couldn't overcome such an obstacle because my field of vision was too narrow to see all the problems.
In the end, I had no choice but to give up all of this and turn the lights overhead, hoping that the masked man would have gotten rid of the survival lock sooner.
Under the light, the headless people I saw, their appearance was extremely complicated, I don't know how many times I had seen it, and even the last time, I couldn't remember what they looked like.
They seemed to be constantly being refreshed, and each time they saw something different, the position of the arms on the body, the cut on the neck, the height of the collar, and the bulge of the collarbone on the neck.
People of all shapes, all kinds of clothes, as if there are people from all over the world, people all year round.
Seeing their appearance, I stared at the masked man, whose figure was superimposed on the stone wall, and the mask seemed to melt into his face, fitting against the headless people on the stone wall.
In the chains hanging down, our flashlight also moved with the masked man's figure, and the space above was as large as the one below, so it was very difficult for him to move.
After moving around here for a while, he began to pause, ready to find a suitable place to rest.
But just then, the blood and sand around us flowed over, and we had to move the light backwards, just right on the side of the masked man.
If I look closely, it really seems to have become a part of the headless man, except for his hanging body.
His body hung in the air, in this uncomfortable position, and after a moment of pause, he had to turn his head away from it, in order to avoid the glare of the light from our hands.
Although we have turned the lights to the lowest position, he must be careful not to affect his vision and cause irreparable danger due to the angle.
But we couldn't put the flashlight away, because the darkness here was extremely lonely and empty, and I knew that, and everyone else should know it, so when we moved the flashlight slightly, we were rejected by the masked man.
In a huge space, the existence of one person will expand the darkness around us to an infinite extent, and that kind of trouble may destroy our hearts.
When it was all quiet, I stared nervously at the masked man, and saw that he began to pick up speed, but as I carefully moved the flashlight, I saw that he was still far from the position directly above us.
In the silence, there was only the sound of the sand flowing, and the faint sound of the chains clashing overhead.
The sand was approaching, and the three of us helped each other to dodge the incoming sand and try to keep the light source moving around the masked man too often.
Time was also lost in this situation, and when I looked up again, I suddenly saw a very abrupt human figure on it.
"Wait a minute!" When a strong premonition came to my heart, I subconsciously shouted, this feeling reminded me of the death of Li Sansi when I was in Yunnan.
Such a strong premonition forced me to wait for a second longer, but as soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned, and a ray of light shot at me, followed by Li Sansi's voice, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Wait a minute, don't grab that chain, it's the one on the arm of the man over there in blue."
Following my voice, the masked man withdrew his hand little by little, carefully holding himself in place.
When he was safe, he asked me, "What did you just find?" ”
I looked at Li Sansi beside me, then at the masked man above my head, and finally said my hunch, "I feel like that's going to make you die here!" ”
It was quiet again, everyone didn't speak, and after a minute like this, Li Sansi finally broke the silence and asked.
"I don't know how to explain it to you, the hunch is strong, but I can't really find the source, it's like ...... It was like it came out of nowhere, without warning, and I felt weird myself, but I knew that this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened, and I remember that when I was in Yunnan, I also had this premonition, and the last time I ......"
Speaking of this, I looked at Li Sansi hesitantly, but saw that he had already frowned, lowered his head and was thinking about something.
"I was told that whether this hunch was true or not, I had to make a decision because it was crucial, and if it was true, I would save the next person!"
"Who told you that?" Ham couldn't help but ask.
I thought about it for a moment, and finally only shook my head, "Forget." ”
At this time, Li Sansi didn't say a word, and he didn't look at me, just as if he was concentrating on his own affairs, and his eyes were also looking at the ground.
I didn't bother him, and I didn't want to ask him about Yunnan, looking at his current appearance, he must be very nervous, but the things in his heart are like Pandora's box, complicated and dangerous.
"Could it be a prophet?" Ham asked suddenly, causing me to look at him again.
He was very quiet, and there was no complicated expression on his face, like a blank sheet of paper without secrets, but those eyes could see everything subtle.
I patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "You've met him, too, but before I met him, I knew another key person, but I wasn't sure who he was, as if it were a foreign book, a simple plot covered in a language I couldn't understand." ”
After hearing this, the other party was a little surprised, but then asked, "How much do you remember about that person, how many times have you met him?" ”
"Twice, but I'm trying to unravel the parts I don't understand in my own way, okay, let's not talk about that, maybe we should take a look at him!"
In the flashlight, we looked up, and we saw that Gu Ren was also looking intently at the figure in blue just now.
"Hey, did you notice that he seems to be wearing earrings?" Ham looked at the masked man in the light and suddenly said something to me.
"Earrings?" I repeated suspiciously, I could see so clearly from such a distance, and despite trying to focus on the side of his face, I didn't find anything.
"Nope!"
When the other party saw that I didn't notice it, he immediately said, "Come over here and look under his ear from my position, there is a reflection, it seems to be silvery-white!" ”
After he said this, I unconsciously shook the flashlight, and before I could make it carefully, I saw the masked man on it turn around and say to us loudly, "Don't mess with the flashlight, I'm watching those people." ”
Ham agreed, and when he turned his head again, he asked me to look again, but I looked at it for a while, but I didn't see it, and finally waved his hand, "Forget it, people love it!" ”
Ham didn't answer, but glanced at the masked man again, and there was something subtle in his gaze.
I didn't pay any attention to that, and looked up at the headless man the Masked Man had just said, maybe my hunch had something to do with it.
Upon closer inspection, I was amazed to find a lot of special features.
This person was wearing blue clothes, which looked like Tang costumes, but under the collar, there were many embroidered things that looked like flowers and grass.
Its clothes are clearly depicted, as if they stand out from the crowd compared to those around them, and this may also be due to the position of his body, which spreads its arms and almost shows us a plan of his body.
I looked closely along the man's neck, revealing a pair of white pants and gray shoes under the blue clothes.
The chains around it were like a large net, passing through the person and keeping the others at bay.
If those chains are really a huge net, then this person is the most critical net, which controls the life and death of everyone, if the chains on his body are broken, the other people who are intercepted behind him will fall, so that the cage that blocks the evil spirit will lose its support.
I can't imagine what the consequences would be, looking at the shuttle chains above my head, I don't look like the masked man, he can clearly feel everything between those people, what those chains are through their bodies.
But I could look over my head at the demons and the quicksand and skeletons on the ground, along the chains.
Looking at all this, I felt in a trance, and the flashlight swayed back and forth, as if something was appearing in front of me.
Eventually, my flashlight returned to the man in blue, and the masked man seemed to have found something in him, and carefully moved to the side of the man in blue.
"What did you find, is there anything special about this person?" I asked him out loud, but he didn't rush to answer, and waited until he had time to start answering.
"This person's position is very strange, if you look at the chains around you, some people are not actually locked, or some of them are free, that is, they can move, you look at this person, he can!"
As he spoke, he suddenly touched his hand to a headless statue, but as soon as his hand touched the man, I heard a sound of metal rubbing.
