Chapter 73: Rift
Suddenly, Shi Yuan thought of the healing mineral water in his backpack.
In this dark world, mineral water cannot heal corroded skin, but it is still effective against normal physical damage.
If he used a knife to cut open the skin, used his blood to repair the cracks, and drank the healing mineral water when his body was weak, would he return to a completely healthy state? In this way, isn't it equivalent to having a steady stream of blood?
After making up his mind, Shi Yuan immediately began to try.
With mineral water, even if you cut yourself, there is no danger, but it is just a little painful. For Shi Yuan now, pain is nothing at all.
He took out a dagger and made a cut in his left arm.
He tossed the dagger aside and reached his left arm directly over the rift, allowing blood to drip onto the rift.
Hiss...... Hiss......
As soon as the blood touched the rift, it immediately emitted bursts of red mist, as if the stone tablet was piping hot.
Shi Yuan gritted his teeth. Although he was not afraid of pain, pain was not a comfortable feeling after all, and his face was a little pale.
The rift "heals" at a rate visible to the naked eye. Seeing this scene, Shi Yuan's face showed a little excitement.
It's finally going to be done! The chaos of both worlds, that terrible curse, can be over!
I don't know how much blood was consumed, Shi Yuan already felt dizzy, and the blood from the wound on his arm gradually coagulated. At this point, the first rift has been completely repaired. Shi Yuan took a sip of mineral water, picked up the dagger from the ground, and turned to the second rift.
The arm had recovered as before, and Shi Yuan once again made a cut with the dagger.
In the dead silence, the sound of blood dripping could be heard clearly.
This time, however, no blood-colored mist rose.
Shi Yuan's expression gradually changed, and he sensed that something was wrong.
What's going on? Why doesn't the rift show any signs of healing? What went wrong?
Scarlet blood flowed down the stele, but the rift remained the same, like a twisted bloody mouth.
Click...... Click......
Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps behind him.
Shi Yuan turned his head sharply and found that the person who came was Fang Yisheng.
"Fang Yisheng, are you back?" Shi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "I've found the balance stone." ”
The white humanoid in the Perception Domain made Shi Yuan relax his vigilance.
Fang Yisheng slowly walked in front of him, the corners of his mouth hooked.
Then, he patted Shi Yuan on the shoulder and said, "You made a mistake." ”
"Am I mistaken? What went wrong? ”
Shi Yuan's heart lifted at the moment when his shoulder was pat.
The Fang Yisheng in front of him didn't seem to be what he should be.
However, he is indeed a living being, and his perception is valid in this dark world.
"Do you remember those pages?"
Fang Yisheng said suddenly.
"Of course."
"Where's the writing on the back of the page?"
"Naturally remember. Remember every page. ”
"Do you remember what was written on the back of the page before you met me?"
"You don't need a golden fire."
"Yes, you don't need it."
Fang Yisheng's expression was strange, as if he was smiling but not smiling.
Shi Yuan became more and more nervous. He felt that Fang Yisheng was very wrong.
Could it be that he was "possessed"?
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
Shi Yuan stared at Fang Yisheng's face and subconsciously retreated, and the blood flowing from the wound dripped to the ground.
Fang Yisheng didn't answer him, but stood still and looked at him.
"Hey, Fang Yisheng!" Shi Yuan's tone also changed, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"Watch your back."
Fang Yisheng replied not as asked.
"Behind the scenes?"
These two words made Shi Yuan's whole body tremble.
However, neither the perception domain nor the telekinesis vision showed any abnormality behind him. Shi Yuan suspected that this was the trick of the "Fang Yisheng" in front of him, so he did not choose to turn back, but continued to stare at him.
Fang Yisheng smiled, but didn't say anything more.
Suddenly, Shi Yuan's chest and mouth stretched out a thin claw covered with blood. At this moment, the unbearable pain hit like a tidal wave, and breathing became extremely difficult.
"I told you, watch your back."
Fang Yisheng's mouth was very big, and it reached the root of his ear, and his mouth was blood-red.
Shi Yuan's face was full of surprise, and his body gradually became colder.
It was only at this moment that he realized that he had not come out of the hallucination at all.
He remembered that the way to judge that he was in a hallucination was not to recall the mission of Dark Crow Ridge, but to notice that the "water film" on his body had disappeared, but his skin did not have any tingling.
☆
Looking at the night outside the window, Shi Nianwen felt a strong uneasiness.
The time shown on the phone is three o'clock, the second half of the night. At this time, it seems normal to be dark outside.
However, there seems to be something unusual about the amount of time I sleep.
Seemingly, it's been too long.
I should have woken up at six a.m. the day before, not after nearly thirty hours of sleep as I am now, when I was woken up by a strange noise.
As for the strange sound just now......
Shi Nianwen's brows furrowed, and his heart beat faster.
In retrospect, the strange sound was very much like ...... The desperate screams of the dying.
This is a hotel arranged by the company, and the security measures are quite good, who is the scream? What causes it?
In addition to this, there is a more serious problem.
Where did the wife go?
He stood up and pressed the light switch, only to find that the light was not on.
Is there a power outage?
He took the mobile phone in his hand, turned on the flashlight inside, and searched for it in various rooms, but found nothing.
Unwilling, he carefully inspected each room, but the result was still the same.
Did she go out?
As soon as the thought came to him, his phone screen suddenly went black.
Dead phone?
Shi Nianwen didn't think much about it, and turned around to go to the bedroom to get the charger.
At this moment, a whisper suddenly sounded in the silence.
"Hey, have you heard? The female engineer died. ”
"Which one?"
"It's the wife in that couple, her husband's surname is Shi, and her surname is Mo."
"Oh, the couple. They're dead? Really? ”
Shi Nianwen's heart trembled, and he shouted loudly: "Who! ”
It would have been fine if the sound had come from the hallway, but it was in this room. However, he had just checked all the rooms, and found no trace of anyone at all.
What's going on?
No one answered his words, and the two voices continued to talk.
"Of course it's true! I saw her body with my own eyes, tsk...... That's a miserable one, worse than a corpse in a horror movie. ”
"Isn't it going to be a different head?"
"That's not all! That's a lot of pieces! Alas, I don't know who did it, it's too cruel to let people die without a whole body. ”
Listening to the content of the conversation between the two voices, Shi Nianwen felt a chill on his skin.
