Chapter 35: He's the Devil
Listening to him say this, I looked at the mural carefully, and I really felt that there was some change, but I couldn't tell what was different. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The lines on the mural are messy, I really don't understand what the meaning of this painting is, if it is just simple abstract art, it will be too abrupt in this underground palace, not to mention that a person like me, who is born without artistic cells, cannot understand the mystery at all.
Suddenly, the "boom" sound came again, this time we heard it clearly, from behind the mural.
"The big bug ran to the back of this mural?" I asked nervously.
Brother Hao made a soft gesture and motioned for me not to speak, and we didn't dare to relax our vigilance at all, because we didn't know when the insect mother would break through the wall.
After waiting for a long time, and still nothing happened, I cautiously asked, "Do you think it's because the big bug doesn't know where we are?" ”
Brother Hao looked at the mural thoughtfully, noncommittal. Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, his whole body trembled, and then he stood on tiptoe to touch the lines, and after a while, he said to me excitedly, "Xu'er! Look, the lines can move! ”
I stepped forward and squinted to see what he was talking about, and he continued: "The wall is movable, in short, this mural is like a puzzle, and when these lines are put together, it may trigger a certain mechanism, and maybe you can get out." ”
As he spoke, he put his hand on it and pushed it hard, and the whole mural actually moved, and then the sound of "boom" sounded again.
"It turns out that this is the voice of the machine!" I exclaimed.
He fiddled with it for a while, and the lines on it kept moving and spinning, and I was dumbfounded, how such a magical device was designed! The rationale behind it is certainly quite complex.
I'm too lazy to think about it, I can do whatever I want, I'm not a scientist, as long as I can get out, everything is easy to say.
Suddenly, "Click! With a bang, it should be that the machine has been pushed into the card slot, and the mechanism has begun to drive.
I subconsciously squatted down with my head in my hands, for fear that a hidden weapon such as a poisonous arrow would fly.
After a while, I raised my head, but saw a stone door suddenly opened on the side of the main hall, and there was a faint white light outside the door.
We ran out the door excitedly, and we were finally saved. The moment we stepped out of the stone gate, the feeling of loss drove us back into the bottomless abyss, and with it, more despair and collapse.
The sight in front of me couldn't be more familiar, this is the cave I have been in since I fell from the waterfall! Sand, waterfalls, tunnels, sunlight spilling through cracks overhead, everything is the same as before. The only difference was that there was a man lying on the sand not far away, motionless and seemingly dead.
We approached the man alertly, only to see him lying unkempt, his clothes in tatters, and a broken searchlight clutching in his hand.
"It's a fawn?!" I recognized him immediately, and ran to him excitedly, trying to shake him awake.
I didn't know how to express how I felt at the moment, and I was pleasantly surprised and a little worried. His breathing was not weak, he should have just fainted, could it be that he also jumped into the river in the first place?
Brother Hao pocketed some water with his jacket and sprinkled it on his face, and after a while, the fawn coughed a few times before slowly opening his eyes.
"You're finally awake!" I said with a little crying, and I was a lot more relieved to see that the deer was no longer a monster.
He looked at us, stunned for a long time, and then asked weakly, "Who are you?" ”
"Huh? I'm your little shyness, he's Qin Zihao, what's the matter, you don't know us? I exclaimed, and the joy of being reunited after a long absence had now vanished.
The fawn shook his head with a dull look, as if he had completely changed into a different person.
"It's over, it's over! This kid has lost his memory! Brother Hao said on the side.
Suddenly, Xiaolu's eyes widened, and he pointed at Brother Hao in horror, and said in a very trembling voice, "He...... He ......"
"What's wrong with him?" I asked, puzzled.
"He's the devil!" Then the fawn closed her eyes tightly, sat on the ground and hugged her knees and shivered.
Brother Hao stood there blankly, not knowing what to say.
"Xiaolu, think about it, he is Brother Hao, come with me to save you!" I comforted.
The fawn didn't look at us, but just said vigorously, "Devil...... He's the devil! ”
"Calm down! What the hell is going on! I shook his shoulders to get him to his senses.
Suddenly, the fawn raised her head slightly, and looked at me with a deep gaze, which was somewhat meaningful, but did not speak, and saw me stunned. This look was very strange, as if it was a hint, as if it was a suspicion and a thought, and I couldn't understand the meaning.
"Are you going to be a monster again?" I subconsciously stood up and took a few steps back.
After a long time, the fawn closed his eyes again, and kept muttering, "Devil! Absolute devil! ”
Brother Hao was confused by these sudden words, scratched his head and said, "What are you talking nonsense, you won't be talking nonsense if you lose your memory!" ”
"Yes, Brother Hao is very good, what did you think of?" I chimed in.
"I don't know, I don't know! All I remember is that he is the devil! Xiaolu looked at Brother Hao in horror again, this kind of frightened but determined eyes seemed to make people unable to find a reason to deny him.
Xiaolu refused to get up on the ground, always insisting on his theory, thinking that Brother Hao was a devil. We are a little helpless, after all, he has amnesia now, and there is nothing we can do with him.
Brother Hao's clothes are not very permeable, so we filled some water and fed it to the deer. At first he was stubborn and didn't drink, but then we talked about it and he drank it in a big gulp.
The fawn should have not eaten for a long time, I guess he is very weak now, and his backpack was left in the tunnel because of the escape, and now I can only hope that the fawn can hold out until we escape.
Actually, I'm not sure if we'll be able to escape, and when I first saw the stone gate in the main hall, I was really excited and almost crazy, because I was 100% sure that the white light outside the door was the natural light of the sun, and there was hardly any other light source other than the fluorescent lamp that could give people that sense of relief.
But the reality has extinguished the flame of hope in my heart again and again, escaped the siege of dragon ants, escaped the pursuit of the insect mother, and experienced the nine deaths of the tunnel, we seem to have returned to the starting point, isn't this fate playing a joke with us?
I prayed in my heart: Little deer, take me out! Please!
But the deer on the side looked up with a smile on his face, and kept muttering: "Devil! ”
