Chapter 44: A Single Chat (1)

Ever since he saw the padlock with a string of strange numbers and the skeleton inside the door, Kuroko's whole person was like he had fallen into an evil spirit, a person was there to watch the bones and read the numbers, I don't know what he was thinking, but I saw that his body was a little trembling, as if he was afraid of something, I had never seen him like this, even if it was a human corpse, he never put it in his eyes, why did such a skeleton make him so panicked.

Does that skeleton have anything to do with him? It can't be his dead dad! But it's not difficult to find out what the reason is, as long as you know the identity of the skeleton, but now that the manual that was turned out of the skeleton has been carried into Kuroko's arms, it may be an unwise decision to ask him to take out the manual and show it to me, seeing him like that, I really don't dare to provoke him.

But then again, when we were in the house just now, I obviously had a chance to see the small print on the manual, but the manual was suddenly closed by Kuroko, and he said that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's leave quickly, the situation was sudden, how dare I not listen to Kuroko.

But in retrospect, there was nothing urgent at the time, and after we rushed out, we opened a few more doors and found a few skeletons.

The monkey stood next to Kuroko, and he was obviously a little overwhelmed when he saw Kuroko's appearance, he kept calling Kuroko on the side, but Kuroko didn't pay attention to him at all, he looked at me and looked away, and then called Kuroko, and he really didn't have a clue and squatted down on the spot, and he didn't know what was written on his notepad.

If this had happened in the past, the monkey would have discussed it with me a long time ago, but now we are strangers and have become so different. For a moment, the passage was as silent as death.

At that moment, a crisp crunch suddenly broke the silence, and I was startled and immediately looked around, but found nothing unusual. I knew that it was not a good thing to hear a voice of unknown origin at this moment, and I suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

The monkey in front of him also stood up immediately, and it was obvious that he had heard the crunch just now, and it was obvious that he was also a little nervous, so we looked at each other and approached Kuroko's side in unison.

I glanced at Kuroko from the side, and Kuroko's expression was very different from before, only to see him frowning and leaning over his ears, probably paying attention to the dynamics around him.

Suddenly, there were a few more crisp crunching sounds, and this time I heard the sound, like a broken branch, which seemed to come from the rooms on both sides of the passage, and immediately I got goosebumps, you know, there was nothing else in the room except the bones, could it be that the bones were resurrected!

"Run! They're all human corpses! He heard Kuroko scream, and then ran to the front of the passage. When I heard the word human corpse, my legs immediately weakened halfway, and I didn't have time to confirm it, so I pulled my legs and ran forward. A few steps after I ran out, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a black shadow crawling out of the room on one side, and when I looked back, it was really bones! I saw a skeleton of bones rushing towards us as if it had become a spirit.

The three of us ran forward along the passage for a while, only to hear the creaking sound behind us getting closer and closer, I gritted my teeth and exerted all my strength, desperately walking without a trace of discouragement, but I knew that after all, I would not be able to outrun the corpse, and I could only delay for a minute and a half at most.

At this moment, I saw that the sunspot in front of me suddenly turned around, and then threw himself on the wall, and disappeared directly! Damn, no, the sunspot will still pass through the wall and escape, I didn't learn this trick, what is this!

I quickly rushed to the place where Kuroko disappeared just now, looked at the wall, and suddenly realized that there was a hole in the wall here, and I didn't care to look closely, so I just drilled into it. As soon as I entered, I found that it was a staircase going up, could it be that it was leading to the upper floor!

I went straight up the stairs, about ten meters or so, when the stairs suddenly turned, and I rushed forward, and then rushed out of a hole to a new passage.

There were still rooms on either side of the passage, the oil lamps on the walls were lit, and the doors of the rooms had an unlocked padlock, exactly like the next floor. It's just that there is no staircase leading to the previous floor here, and the entrance to the stairs on each floor is no longer in the same place!

Before I could take a closer look, there was a series of rapid crunching sounds from the staircase, and the corpses of this dog day were too rushed to kill, so I didn't let Lao Tzu take a breath first! I changed my breath and rushed forward, the sunspot should be in front, the monkey should be ...... Alas? No way! What about monkeys!

The monkey was following me when I started running, didn't he see the staircase and rushed straight over? As I ran, I wondered where the monkey was going, and I kept looking ahead, and the sunspot seemed to be gone!

At this moment, a door on the front side of the passage was suddenly pushed open, and then a bald head poked out of the door, it was Kuroko! I heard him shout: Come in!

I stopped at the door with a hard brake, drilled into the house, and took them with me. Kuroko somehow got an oil lamp from the passage and put it in his hand, and the situation in the room was clearly visible.

In the middle of the room, there were still bones sitting cross-legged, and Kuroko sprinkled a few drops of burning pine oil on the bones, and the bones immediately burned, and the whole room was illuminated brightly, and the smell of burnt paste was pungent and unpleasant.

I gasped for breath in horror, looking at the burning bones in front of me, and I felt strange in my heart. Kuroko also stood in front of the fire, staring at the fire motionless, and his eyes once again revealed that feeling of confusion.

It wasn't until I came to my senses that I remembered the monkey, and I wondered if he would be able to escape this time.

I immediately asked Kuroko, "Did you see the monkey?" ”

Kuroko didn't seem to hear me ask him again, just stared at the fire and didn't respond to me. I didn't ask anymore when I saw that he didn't make a sound, he probably didn't see that the monkey was behind me.

"Which monkey?" Kuroko was silent for a long time and said suddenly.

I was a little stunned when I heard Kuroko's words, and my heart suddenly chuckled: "You...... What did you just say? ”

Kuroko turned to look at me, his deep eyes even more unfathomable against the backdrop of his shiny bald head: "Which monkey are you referring to?" ”

I heard Kuroko's words clearly, but these few words made me a little confused for a while: "What do you mean by this, are there still a few monkeys?" ”

Kuroko sighed and said slowly, "At least, that's what I think!" ”

I swallowed and asked, "What the hell is going on, did you find something?" How come there are only a few monkeys left? ”

At this time, the fire from the bones was almost extinguished, and only a few sporadic fires remained. Kuroko put the oil lamp in his hand on the ground in the corner, and the room was dark again for a while. Kuroko picked the wick on the oil lamp with his hand, and the light brightened slightly.

Heizi got up and said, "This is just my guess, if not, Lao Zhao lied!" ”

When I heard it, I was even more confused, how could this be related to Lao Zhao again, could this be what Lao Zhao said to Heizi? When was it said?

I immediately asked Heizi: "What did Lao Zhao tell you?" ”

Kuroko looked at me again with his deep eyes and said, "He said the monkey is dead!" ”

Kuroko's words made my heart beat wildly like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and I broke out in a cold sweat for a while, and the thoughts that came out of my heart couldn't tell whether they were sad or surprised, how could this good person die.

I asked in a trembling voice, "Old Zhao...... When did Lao Zhao tell you? Why didn't he sue me! ”

Kuroko paused and said, "Four days ago, just after I entered the cave!" ”

"Four days ago? How can it be! And who is the monkey who has been with us before? ”

"That's what I just said, there could be more than one monkey here!" Kuroko let out a long sigh after speaking, and it could be seen that he was also a little skeptical of his statement.

I'm completely confused by Kuroko's words, how can there be two monkeys who are exactly the same? If the monkey really died four days ago, then who changed the monkey behind it? Is this Journey to the West? What surprised me even more was that the news that the monkey was dead still came out of Lao Zhao's mouth.

I then asked Kuroko: "If that's the case, how could Lao Zhao have the opportunity to tell you this in the cave at the beginning?" ”

Heizi asked me, "Did Lao Zhao follow me after I entered the cave?" ”

I replied: "Yes, not only Lao Zhao went in, but I and the monkey both went in!" ”

Kuroko frowned intentionally or unintentionally, and then said: "After I went in, I climbed all the way to the end of the cave, which was a cliff platform, and I saw that the bone vines on the platform could be used as a tool to go down to the bottom of the cliff, so I immediately climbed back to inform you, but I didn't expect to meet Lao Zhao on the way back." Kuroko stopped abruptly when he said this, and saw that his expression was solemn and his brows were furrowed, as if he was recalling a tragic experience.

I immediately interjected and asked, "You pretended to be a human corpse at that time?" ”

Kuroko said: "That's not yet, there are no human corpses in the cave, it's not necessary, I pretended to be human corpses after I went down to the abyss, there are thousands of human corpses, and you have seen them later." ”

I swallowed my saliva, thinking that something was wrong, Lao Zhao told us at the time that the sunspot he saw in the cave was very similar to a human corpse, and he didn't dare to act rashly before returning the same way, if the sunspot did not pretend to be a human corpse at that time, then this is a contradiction!

I secretly speculated in my heart, planning not to say my doubts first, and to listen to what Kuroko said next, maybe there was another mystery here.

I then asked Kuroko, "What happened after you met Lao Zhao?" ”

Heizi sighed and said, "When I saw Lao Zhao, he was almost dead!" ”

"What! It's almost gone! I was taken aback and immediately asked, "What do you mean when you're dying?" ”

"It's just about to run out of breath!" , Kuroko closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose with his hand, and began to recall the scene at that time: "At that time, Lao Zhao was seriously injured, almost all the bones in his body were broken, and when I saw him, he almost only had one breath left, and after he saw me, he used his last strength to say four words to me: The monkey is dead!" Then he died! ”
