Chapter 10: The Female Corpse
Goo-dong, goo-dong", the voice came from the upper part of the stairs, and Su You tensed his body and held his breath. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Su You's current location is the corner of a staircase, which can be up and down, and the field of vision is relatively wide, but the light is dark, and he can't see what the person who sent the sound is.
The main consciousness told Su You that this was dangerous, and he should quickly run down the stairs, but the cells in his body were shouting, and his limbs were not controlled at all, so he could only stand there in a daze.
Listening to the thing walking towards him step by step, seeing that it was about to reach his eyes, his heart was a little more calm, it was a blessing or a curse, and he couldn't avoid it.
"Who?" The excessive panic made Su You's voice very hoarse, and it was especially terrifying in this quiet space.
The man did not answer, but continued to walk.
Su You struggled to look at the silhouette of the thing in the darkness, as if it was a human form.
"Great Dragon?" Su You tentatively shouted, "Big Dragon? Is it really you? ”
The thing was also obviously stunned, and slowly spoke: "Su You? ”
When I heard the other party's answer, I felt that something was wrong, but it was also fleeting. Su You suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, "Dalong, you kid, I'm easy to find, are you injured?" ”
"No, what about you?" The man replied.
"Don't mention it, I almost became an old rat's dinner just now, don't talk about it, you're fine."
"Are you seriously injured? What do we do next? There was silence for a moment before the man spoke.
"My injury is not a big deal, it's just that I was too nervous just now, I need to take a break now, and then, let's go down the stairs all the way, Dalong, maybe, you can quickly find a way to wake up, I always feel that this place is not within our control, in case I have something long and short, and I don't even have a person to collect the body, I don't want to do this."
"Su You, am I so weak in your heart? We've been brothers for so many years, but you say such things to me! You have the answers you're looking for, and I have the people I want to protect! He's my brother, someone I can die for him!"
Su You was stunned for a moment, it seems that he had heard this somewhere, where is it? So familiar. But then he was interrupted by Da Long, "Su You, let me accompany you, I don't want to see you alone anymore, you know, we are brothers, you are not alone, listen, you are not alone!" ”
Dalong's words provoked Su You a surprise, although Dalong is a naughty person, but he is also a person who does not like to express emotions, these words, these emotions Dalong will not say, but Su You understands, they know each other, this is the deep bond between the two.
But now, Dalong said it word by word, which really surprised Su You, but it was just a moment, after all, the current situation is so special, I don't know if there is a chance that the two of them will survive, and it is natural to say something that is usually difficult to say, so Su You didn't take it to heart.
Su You got up, and the pain in his hind leg made him stumble.
"Thank you, Dalong, let's go." Su You suddenly felt very relaxed, he had been closing his heart for so many years, unwilling to contact with the outside world, in fact, just like Dalong said, he was not alone, there was also Dalong, a good brother, and the uncle who didn't know that corner of the world, maybe he was also constantly looking for himself, it was not necessarily, it was just a matter of time, the first thing to do now was to be optimistic about his own life, and he couldn't die casually.
The two of them continued to want to go downstairs one after the other.
There seems to be no end to this staircase, what kind of grand building would install such a long and deep staircase. Looking down, there is still endless darkness, bottomless, as if it will lead to hell. At first, the two of them occasionally talked to each other, but later, the two just walked mechanically, each thinking about it.
Suddenly, a message flashed in Su You's mind, which made Su You fight a cold war.
Dalong rarely calls Su You's name, and he has always been called "Ayou", but this "Dalong" is a "Suyou", which is very wrong. And what he just said was not familiar, it was not the same as following his father's footsteps back to the room not long ago, and the dragon roared at the door. And Dalong usually never said those things that were already tacit to each other. All of this can only lead to a distressing conclusion: the person behind him is definitely not a big dragon!
Just in case, Su You decided to test it.
"Da Long, Yi Han and Yi Shui, which one do you like?" Su You's tone was as flat as possible, pretending to be nothing.
"Well, Yi Han, I like it a lot." The man behind him was stunned, obviously not expecting Su You to ask such a question.
Su You stopped.
"What's the matter, why aren't you leaving? Are you alright, Su You? Seeing that Su You didn't move, the man asked with "concern".
"You're not a big dragon, let's say, who are you?" Su You's tone lowered the temperature, and his eyes showed a fierce light.
"Hahaha, sure enough, you still found out." The answer was a female voice, and there was a bit of chill in the faint voice, almost freezing the air around her. Along with it, there is also the smell of dampness that Su You will never forget in his life.
Su You realized who this woman was, and if she guessed correctly, this woman was the one who pretended to be a big dragon in the first dream and wanted to put herself to death.
"Are you a human or a ghost? Why do you keep coming to me? ”
"Hehe, what do you say?"
This time, the sound came from the bottom of the stairs. There was no way, Su You could only go hard.
"What do you want, I beg you, don't hurt Dalong, okay?" Su You's voice was almost pleading, a gesture that he had never had in his haughtyness.
"There is one condition." The woman's voice rang out again.
"On what terms?"
"Give me your blood, all."
Su You clearly felt that the woman was close to him, the heavy smell of moisture filled the entire nasal cavity, and he could even feel it slicing back and forth between his neck with sharp nails, the cold temperature, and the disgusting smell made Su You's attention unable to concentrate. Su You didn't have anything to defend himself on, and the dagger he had always carried with him didn't bring it to his dream.
Su You turned his head and secretly pinched his thigh with his left hand, the pain made him sober up a lot and diverted his attention.
"What's the use of your blood?"
"Young master, you're asking a little too much, to give or not to give, eh?" This time the voice came from the head, and the long tail note was gently raised, and it was indescribably cold.
Su You subconsciously raised his head, "Ah...", took a few steps back, and covered his mouth.
There was a woman's head, without a body, just a head hanging there. There were no eyeballs in the eye sockets, looking at himself in a black hole, the skin of the whole face seemed to have been corroded by concentrated sulfuric acid, accompanied by a strong rancid smell, the corners of the mouth cracked, cracked to the ears, and the ears seemed to be hollowed out by something, only a thin layer of skin hung there, and the crystal blood kept overflowing from the eye sockets, ears, and corners of the mouth, and the scene was extremely disgusting.
Su You couldn't hold back the churning in his stomach anymore, squatted down and vomited.
"Don't and Lao Tzu pretend to be ghosts, even if you are really a ghost, I will admit it," Su You got up, wiped the corners of his mouth, and looked at the head.
"Knock, knock, knock", the head fell to the ground and rolled down the stairs.
Su You was very afraid, how could an atheist suddenly encounter so many inexplicable phenomena! But he can't show it, let alone expose his weak side in front of a man who wants to drink his own blood.
"Tell me, where the hell is the dragon, is it safe?" Su You stared at the bottom of the stairs, it was so dark that he couldn't see anything, but Su You knew that the person was in the black.
"If you want to know about your brother, then give me blood."
Su You is not a person who is afraid of death, and he is not the kind of person who refuses to sacrifice his life to save his brother when he sees his brother in trouble. He also knew that even if he handed over his life to the person in front of him, it might not be able to speak, and if he couldn't make it happen, not only did he not save it, but he put himself in it for nothing, which was not cost-effective.
Anyway, I can do it twice, but I can't give in so easily. A clumsy method formed in Su You's mind, maybe it would work, maybe it would just hit a stone with an egg, but it always had to try.
"Okay, I'll give it to you." These words were squeezed out of Su You's teeth. At the same time, Su You quickly ran down a few steps, and with the help of his body's inertia, he rushed towards the darkness fiercely. Su You is also a man of nearly one meter eight, although his body is a little weaker, he still has strength, no matter whether the one in front of him is a ghost or a demon, he will talk about it after he flies.
"Boom".
Su You lay on the ground, covering his nose, a sweet smell filled his mouth, and it seemed that he had a nosebleed.
Su You wondered very much, why was that thing so hard?
The smell of dampness in the air is gone, the smell of rot is gone, is that thing gone? No, there's a big blurry thing in front of me, what is that?
Su You carefully got up from the ground, stood on tiptoe, and slowly approached.
When I got closer, I realized that it was a wall!
The owner here is really sick and built a wall on the stairs. Thinking that it was this broken wall that had just hit his nose and scared himself for so long, Su You was so angry that he didn't hit it.
I was just about to kick it to take revenge, when I suddenly noticed a glimmer of light coming from behind the wall.
The wall occupies three-quarters of the entire width of the staircase, leaving only a narrow slit leading down to the brilliant lights. Su You didn't hesitate, and laboriously drilled through the gap.
Eyes that have been in the dark for a long time do not adapt to the light very quickly. When his eyes can see things well, Su You was stunned, is this sure it is not on the set of which movie?
Could it be that he ran to the Golden Whip Creek Inn? Su You was amused by this conclusion that popped up in his mind, the Golden Whip Creek Inn is a large ancient building mentioned in a domestic cartoon he watched when he was a child, mainly based on wooden structures, and the corridor on each floor is lined with rows of rooms on one side, and the open-air kind on the other side, so that it is convenient to see the singing and dancing performances in the central hall on the first floor.
Unlike the Golden Whip Creek Inn in memory, the architecture here is even more spectacular!
This ancient building is in the shape of "Hui", Su You counted it carefully, there are seven floors, each floor is connected by four corridors end to end, there are seven closed wooden lattice doors on one side of each corridor, with patterns carved on them, the distance is too far to see what is carved, there is a flaming red lantern hanging on both sides of each door, and the atmosphere of the lanterns almost makes Su You mistakenly think that this is the New Year; On the other side, it is open-air, and when you look down, you can see the stage in the central hall on the first floor, and dozens of carved wooden chairs arranged neatly around the stage.
What attracted Su You's attention the most were the four stout and slender load-bearing wooden pillars embedded in the four corners. In fact, according to common sense, it is not uncommon for such a huge building to have such thick load-bearing columns, and it is strange that there are things on those four pillars.
Because of the angle, Su You can see it at a glance.
The pillar behind him was the closest to Su You, that is, the "wall" where he had a nosebleed just now, and the pillar was so high that Su You took about twenty steps back to see the whole picture of the pillar.
This pillar is carved with a giant dragon hovering from the bottom up, Su You is in the middle of the whole building, so he can only see the scales of the dragon body in the middle, each one is the size of two palms of adults, looking up, a huge dragon head sticks out from the coiled pillar, looking at the sky, this dragon is too high, Su You can't see its facial expression, only knows that the hair around this dragon head is subtle and realistic, and the two naturally curved whiskers seem to be flying in the air like the real one. The two front paws only grasped the pillar, as if it would soar into the air in the next moment.
Between the gap between the dragon body and the pillar, there are four big characters: Canglong returns to the sky!
This character is a seal script, but Su You recognizes it, because the calligraphy of his grandfather before his death is a seal script. For a while, Su You didn't understand the meaning of these four words, and he didn't think much about it, and looked at the next pillar, on which was a huge red bird carved on it, and the bird's head was also facing up, and the bird's facial expression could just be seen from the side. I saw that this bird had a human-like pious gaze and a face full of awe. This bird is similar to the phoenix, and it is very different from the phoenix, the phoenix is a representative of peace, so it gives people a sense of comfort, but this bird makes Su You feel cold all over his body, I don't know what kind of wood is used, the color is bright red as if it has been soaked in blood, and it has just experienced a killing.
At the junction of the bird at the pillar, the same four big characters are "Red Bird Foehn Wind".
One is a dragon, the other is a red bird, isn't it?
Su You hurriedly turned around to look at the remaining two pillars, and sure enough, they were carved with a combination of a tiger and a turtle and a snake, with their heads tilted upwards and their eyes reverent. That's right, these four pillars are carved with the Green Dragon, the Vermilion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Xuanwu. Although he didn't know what this was, Su You, who had always been quick-witted, immediately realized that he was caught in a formation, and if he couldn't get out, he would be trapped here!
I was thinking about what to do, but suddenly I heard a voice from nowhere. Su You calmed down and listened carefully.
"Woo... Whining... Woo"
The voice gradually became clear, "What is this sound?" Su You thought, "It's like a person who is gagged by something, and it comes out..."
It's a big dragon!
It must be that the dragon is trapped in a room here, and I don't know what the situation is. Su You, who was in a hurry, immediately ran towards the source of the sound.
"If you don't want to die, don't move!"
