Chapter 1779: Hourglass (2)

The thin man's voice fell, and the sand around him followed.

For a moment, the golden sand poured down like golden rain.

The rustle drowned out the tail note of the thin man.

By the time the sand has covered the ground and turned the ground into a dune, the surrounding environment has been completely changed.

There are sand dunes on the ground, but what is unrealistic is that there is a magnolia tree standing on the dunes. The dandelion seeds fluttering around are dreamy, but they are not real.

The skinny man's feet were sunk in grains of sand.

He stepped forward, his feet pulled out of the sand, and he stepped on them again.

With that kick deep and shallow, his speed quickened.

He ran towards something.

But in my field of vision, there is still yellow sand in the distance. Even if I tried to find it from the perspective of the thin man, it was in vain.

I was a little panicked.

If the ability can't be used, forget it, I can't find Qi Bai's figure now. I couldn't find it, but the thin man did!

What's going on?

Qi Bai is targeting the thin man, only making the thin man hallucinate?

Even so, I should be able to connect with the consciousness of the thin man. I see the memories that the thin man recalls, but I can't see the hallucinations that the thin man sees now?!

I broke out in a cold sweat.

At this time, I could only grit my teeth, keep up with the thin man's footsteps, and continue to scream in his ear.

I want the skinny man to hear me, and the skinny man to stop and turn his head to look at me.

But as he ran, the yellow sand under his feet had decreased, and he had not yet discovered my presence.

The yellow sand receded, and the thin man stepped on the floor.

The strange sight receded, and all that was left was a living room.

This is Qi Bai's room. I've seen it in my dreams.

What I didn't see in my dreams was the hourglass on the coffee table in the living room.

It's similar to the hourglass in the thin man's memory, but it's much bigger. In my memory, the hourglass that the medium took out was exquisitely made, but it was very small. The one in front of me is half a meter high. The two snakes that served as scaffolds also looked hideous, opening their mouths and revealing their fangs. The blood-red eyes were supposed to be two rubies, but they looked like real eyes, and the light in them was breathtaking.

The sand in the hourglass, the top half is golden, and when it flows into the bottom half, it turns black.

I looked closely for a while and saw that the black sand was still evaporating. It was as if there was a flame burning at the bottom of the hourglass, and the heat burned the sand into fly ash, and the whole bottom half of the hourglass was smoked black.

The thin man's body trembled for a moment, and finally blinked.

He kept looking at the sofa, but in my eyes, it was empty, and there was no one at all.

The thin man walked over and sat down on the couch.

When he sat down, the couch was dented. But except for that position, the rest of the sofa is very flat, and there is no trace of anyone sitting at all.

The thin man sat still for a while before he spoke, "I already know about it. I have a way to resurrect you. "Baibai......" he turned to the right and looked at the empty couch, "Baibai, do you want to come back to life?" Something is not quite right about this question...... You may not know it, you may have noticed it...... The world is changing. The things you love are real. Not all of them are true, but spiritualism, mediums, witchcraft...... A lot of it is true. They are getting stronger and becoming uncontrollable. You...... When he died, he probably saw a lot of things......"

The thin man sighed, "I don't know what will become of it." It may get better, but it is also possible to ...... You're going to die even worse......"

The thin man's eyes were empty.

After a moment of silence, he nodded slightly, "Hmm." Oh, yes...... There is always hope in life. This truth turns out to make sense. The current word...... To live is to have one more life. ”

He patted his knee, "And this life can't be said to be reliable." Honestly, I sometimes think it's good to die. If it continues like this...... If you are prepared, it should be a better choice to choose suicide. ”

I looked at the thin man in surprise.

The thin man suddenly laughed.

He was talking to Qi Bai, who I couldn't see or hear, and it surprised me. What the thin man said surprised me even more.

We never talked about it.

Now that I think about it, we all deliberately avoided this problem.

No one wants to see that future. No one wants to choose death just like that.

Although, after rational consideration, it will be found that suicide at this time may be the wisest decision.

It is really unthinkable to die suddenly and unexpectedly, or if you die in a tragic and painful way, and become a ghost.

I'm sad, but now is not the time to be sad.

The thin man was a listener for a while.

He smiled wryly, "Well, I think so, but how can that step just be taken casually?" Die...... After so many years and a lifetime, in my cognition, death is the end of everything. Moreover, even if you commit suicide and are mentally prepared, who knows if it will change when the knife goes down? ”

The thin man was talking to Qi Bai.

A couple is separated by yin and yang, and the atmosphere cannot be said to be bad to be able to talk calmly like this.

But I know the thin man is dead!

The thin man may have died the moment he was caught by those sands, or he may have had a broken conversation with Qi Bai later, and Qi Bai went crazy and killed him.

I started to get anxious again, and I yelled wah-wah-wah-wah.

The thin man can't hear me.

I suddenly thought of a possibility, and I felt a strong feeling of palpitations.

It's not that I can't see Qi Bai, it's not that I can't hear Qi Bai's voice, it's that I'm separated.

I was cut off from this illusion.

I can still see the scene here, I can see the thin man, but this "seeing" may be similar to seeing through the screen.

I'm not in this illusion.

My gaze turned to the hourglass.

The hourglass was still counting, and the sand in the first half of the knot was decreasing at a constant rate, and the sand in the second half was not increasing, but the layer of glass became darker.

Is this the problem?

Qi Bai himself should not have the ability to open up space and separate me.

I've only encountered a similar ability once in that game spirit. It was one of the most powerful spirits I've ever encountered, more powerful than most ghosts.

I floated up to the hourglass and held out my hand to the hourglass.

"Shhhh

I immediately withdrew my hand and dodged this blow.

The thin man's attention seemed to be drawn

“…… Left, this little bit of time? The thin man asked.

He didn't seem to see the snake's movements.

I shifted my position, faced the thin man, and reached out to the hourglass again.

Both snakes on the hourglass came to life, their bodies swelling and wrapping around the hourglass, their red eyes staring at me, and they kept spitting letters.

The thin man just looked at the hourglass at this time.

His eyes moved slightly, as if to lift them to look in the direction I was standing.

It may have been his move to follow the snake's movements.

Found me? I was overjoyed.

Nangong Yao also discovered me at the beginning. He has a special ability and has an advantage in this regard. But it is enough to prove that this quarantine lockdown for me cannot be absolute.

As long as the skinny man is aware of my existence......

The thin man suddenly turned his head at this time, showing a surprised expression.

But it wasn't me he was looking at, it was the empty couch beside him!

Grass!

I couldn't help but curse.

Qi Bai! It was definitely Qi Bai who said something that diverted the thin man's attention!

The two snakes staring at me completely surrounded the hourglass, their mouths open to the maximum, one on top and one on the bottom, and began to devour the hourglass from both ends.

The thin man turned his head abruptly and reached out to grab the hourglass without thinking.

I just felt my heart contract.

What happened? What did Qi Bai say to the thin man?
