Chapter 14: Darkness
Whew......
Under the yellowing sky, the sunlight illuminated the distant clouds a little red, and a faintly sharp wind blew gently, bringing up a piece of yellow sand to sweep the sky and the earth, gradually forming a wind circle. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It floated and moved in the fading twilight, like a ripple on the surface of a calm lake, only to return to its original state and dissipate like a cloud of smoke.
This is an unknown place in the depths of the Sahara Desert, standing here, looking at it, there is not the slightest human habit, only the yellow sand flying in the sky, not a trace of green, full of desolation, no sign of life, like a forbidden area of life.
However, it can still be seen with the naked eye, and there are still faintly tall buildings here, and its original glory can also be seen from its current appearance.
Although it is now only a ruined wall, lonely and stubborn in the world under the gradually ending sunset, it seems to tell people that it also had an ancient and glorious history, but it still seems to be so bleak and full of desolation.
From time to time, a gust of wind blowing from the depths of the desert would occasionally blow the yellow sand on its surface, revealing a pile of white bones hidden deep under the sand, but it was not known whether it was human bones, animal bones, or both.
And this faint everything seems to confirm the cruelty and loneliness here today.
It was also in this environment, on a sand dune a little far from the ruined wall, although it was also very desolate, but it still had more life than there.
There was a man lying on the ground, motionless, but I don't know how he got here and how he fell on the dunes.
Soon, small desert animals would appear around him, passing by him, sometimes stopping to look at him, and then quickly leaving.
And the figure had been sleeping on the sand dunes like this, allowing the wind and sand to gradually bury and cover him, only the faint wisps of breath between his nose and mouth still showed that he was still alive.
As time passed, the figure sleeping on the sand dunes still didn't seem to show any signs of wanting to wake up.
The sky is getting darker, the sun is sinking in the west, and the desert, which used to be very hot during the day, is gradually cooling down after nightfall, and the time of night is coming.
Here you never know what awaits you, and there may be extreme danger hidden under the extremely ordinary appearance, no matter who you are, the slightest mistake here can lead to death.
Not only because there are many unknowns hidden here, but also because this is the Sahara Desert, the largest desert in the world, and there are many mysteries that the world cannot explain, but also because after tens of millions of years of evolution, it has already formed its own set of rules and food chains.
Naturally Ji Wuchen who was unconscious on the sand dunes, speaking of which, he had been in a coma here for a day, with the sun and the moon crossing the sky over and over again, alternating day and night, letting the daylight and starlight sprinkle all around, but he was still unconscious.
The wind and sand covered him, and finally he almost only left one nostril to exhale outside, and the temperature was gradually decreasing, but because of the sand, he didn't feel extremely cold.
He lay under the lonely night sky, I don't know how long, and finally, at a certain moment, the sand on his body hidden under the yellow sand could be seen to be a little inexplicably loosened......
************************************
In the deep darkness, there was no light, no sound, all but a dead silence of darkness and coldness.
Here, there seems to be nothing but darkness, and naturally there is no concept of time.
"Hmmm......"
I don't know how long it has existed, but in this dead darkness, a voice finally came, making this dead world finally have a different color.
In this dark and unknowable place, it seems that someone is slowly waking up at this moment.
In the fog, he felt that his mind and consciousness were all in a trance, and his mind was also a little groggy, he couldn't raise his head or open his eyes, and his brain was like a mess.
Sitting up and opening his eyes, it was all dark and cold, and he felt as if he was standing on the edge of a great abyss, feeling the cold to his bones, without a trace of warmth or warmth.
He didn't know where he was, he didn't know what he was doing, and at this moment he only felt his mind go blank, a little confused, and at the same time a little frightened.
In the dark, he stretched out his fingers, trying to see clearly, but found that he couldn't see anything, because there was no light illuminating, he could only have some vague senses, but inexplicably a little chill.
He just stood in place, his eyes were a little dull, he was silent for a long time, he didn't make any movement, I don't know if he didn't dare or didn't want to.
"I'm ...... Where......"
Finally, after a long silence, a faint sigh echoed in the darkness.
"I ......"
"Who's ......?"
After a long sigh, there was silence for a long time, and again there was a sound of confusion.
I saw him stretch out his arms, sit on the ground, pick up his knees, and bury his head deep in front of his knees, looking so depressed, lonely and pitiful.
"I ......"
"Who the hell is ......?"
"Here ......"
"Where the hell is ......?"
Muttering, he slowly stood up from the ground, holding his head in his hands, looking extremely painful, and kept talking.
Originally, it was just a small voice, but then it grew louder and louder, and the voice became more and more rapid, and finally it turned into a roar, looking crazy and desperate.
"Who am I!!"
"Why can't I remember who I am!!"
"Why !!"
He staggered, his body was a little unstable, and he began to scream in despair.
At this moment, suddenly, he felt the atmosphere in the air tighten, and it was instantly full of oppression, as if it was slowly approaching him, and even almost suffocated his whole body.
Feeling the extreme oppressive aura coming from the air, his eyes opened angrily, revealing bloodshots, although his face could not be seen in the dark, but he could also imagine how unwilling and angry he was, roared angrily, struggled to stand up and walked forward.
Rumble!!!
And when he stepped on it, his body was suddenly unstable, and when he stepped on the air, the whole person fell down.
"Hehe......"
I saw that his whole person hung upside down and fell towards the bottom of the abyss in the air with his arms outstretched, and there was a burst of unwilling laughter from his mouth, and finally disappeared into the darkness, leaving only the sound echoing in the abyss......
"Is that it?"
"I'm really unwilling......"
