Chapter 66: By the Sea
A full moon hung in the middle of the sky, slowly sliding westward, and the moonlight sprinkled on the wide sand, reflecting a miserable white.
Wave after wave crashed onto the beach, reflecting the icy light of the water and making a small sound of water.
On the beach lay a man covered in bruises.
His limbs were wide open, and his whole body was arranged in a large shape, spread flat on the beach. The clothes on his body were in tatters, and the red wounds could be faintly seen from under the broken fabric, and blood was constantly oozing outward.
The swaying sea water **** the corners of his clothes, constantly washing the wounds on his body, taking away the wisps of blood that flowed out of the wounds.
The man lay down for a long time, until the eastern horizon began to turn a little white, and then he snorted softly, and at the same time his limbs twitched a few times.
"Hurt ......" he squeezed a word out of his throat, frowned at the same time, and slowly opened his eyes.
The light of the moon hanging in the sky was already very dim, almost blending into the dark background.
The man stared at the moon overhead, blinked, and slowly raised an arm.
On his right wrist hung a watch that seemed to be of great value. But at this time, this watch has been completely scrapped, and the muddy water in the dial is swaying and decreasing, and the delicate gears are soaked in the water, and they are still shaking and shaking without stopping, making a small sound of breaking.
Wisps of seawater trickled down his wrists and into his sleeves, cutting through the wounds on his arms, causing him to gasp.
The man weakly lowered his raised arm and sat up straight with his teeth gritted.
"This waste ......," he whispered to himself, examining the wounds on his body, and scolded angrily, "how can ****** make himself like this!" ”
He had wounds of unknown sizes, some of which looked like they had been dragged abrasions, and some of them looked like bruises from the crash...... But the most serious ones were several wounds on his neck and thighs, located very close to the arteries, and blood was constantly gushing out of these wounds, even if there was a sea water, the blood near the wounds still stuck his skin and the clothes around him, as long as he moved slightly, he could pull the hideous wounds and gush out more blood.
The near-fatal wounds looked less like knives and more like bites, with teeth marks clearly attached to the wounds, and the pink flesh was exposed to the air and whitened by seawater bubbles.
I don't know what kind of hatred I have against this man, so I tore off a few pieces of meat from him.
The man endured the pain, forcibly tore the clothes that had stuck to his body from his skin, and took a few breaths of relief before struggling to sit up from the beach.
The salty sea breeze blew in his face, bringing up a few of his tattered strips of cloth and fluttering in the wind.
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, as if he was feeling the cool sea breeze, and a little smile on the corner of his mouth.
A huge wave more than two meters high slapped head-on, drenching his half-dried clothes again.
"!" The man cursed angrily, raised his hand to wipe the water from his face, and turned to walk towards the other side of the shore.
"Waste, waste, waste, waste......" He whispered to himself as he walked: "I can't even solve a shrew who has been dead for so many years, and I don't blink an eye when I kill people, and the surname Song is also a waste, and he is not as bold as a rabbit, and he thinks about digging out people's eyeballs all day long, and there is a bright ...... that slut"
When he said this, he suddenly remembered something, and stopped his whispered thoughts.
"Bright?" He shook his head suspiciously, and his eyes lit up suddenly: "By the way, there is still brightness!" ”
He slammed his palm with his fist and looked excitedly in a certain direction, revealing an inexplicable smile.
Then, ignoring the big and small injuries on his body, he limped up on the beach.
Mingmei curled up in the car and slept for a long time.
In her dreams, she was always immersed in a labyrinth full of cobwebs, and she didn't know what to do, no matter how she walked, she saw white cobwebs, and dense spiders of all sizes chasing her.
In the dream, she was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, with short legs and weak bodies, and she almost stopped to catch a few breaths after running a few steps, but the outstretched spider pulled their eight legs, staggering after her, and did not allow her to stop and rest, and of course would not give her a chance to think about what was going on.
Mingmei vaguely felt that something was wrong, it seemed that she shouldn't be so afraid of spiders, but she liked it a lot. But the behavior in the dream was not something she could control, and the teenage girl almost didn't want to run away when she saw the spider, as if it was instinct, and tried her best to escape.
And the cobwebs that blocked her progress were not as soft and fragile as the other cobwebs, but were tough and strong, tripping her to the ground countless times.
Countless cobwebs dangled in front of her eyes, and if she looked closely, she would find that although they looked different in size, they were indeed the same shape.
It's just that at this moment, her mind is full of the most important thing of "how to escape", and she is not too interested in carefully observing the cobwebs...... Or even if she didn't have to run for her life, she wasn't interested in the shape of the spider's web, she just felt disgusting.
She dodged the spiders chasing behind her in this boundless space, running in all directions, and occasionally being blocked by cobwebs, and soon became exhausted.
No, no, not in this direction......
Mingmei looked at the road in front of her, or the broken spider web in front of her, and kept reminding herself in her heart.
Don't go this way, there are ...... on this side
Unfortunately, her body was not under her control, and she still blindly ran forward, through one spider web after another, towards the depths of darkness.
Stop, don't keep running, it's very dangerous, you'll meet ......
What will you encounter?
Mingmei suddenly got stuck when she thought of this.
After all, the memory is too long, even if she knows that the current dream should be a memory of herself, but no matter how hard she tries to recall, she still can't remember what she will encounter if she continues to run.
It was a very important thing, very important, and even related to the lives of many people, but unfortunately Mingyang couldn't remember it.
Obviously, the vague influence of that thing was lingering in her mind, but she couldn't dig out the true face of that thing from her vague memory.
In the dream, he still ran forward without stopping, and from time to time he looked back to see if the spider behind him had followed, which made Mingmei involuntarily nervous.
The good news is that the number of spiders following behind her gradually decreased, and the speed of chasing her was much fuller, and she was soon thrown out of a large section, and could only hang behind her slowly, making some threatening movements from time to time, forcing her to quickly give up the meaningless thing of escaping.
Mingmei heard the protest sound from her lungs, and her legs began to ache.
It's going to be unstoppable......
Mingmei looked at the gradually blurred vision in front of her, thought in a daze, and opened her eyes wide.
I remember, there's something here?
She stared at a small spider web in the corner in front of her, thinking in confusion.
Behind him, the dense swarm of spiders that seemed like a flood had disappeared completely, and only large cobwebs trembled in the wind, proving that there were once some small creatures busy here.
That thing......
Bright slowly stopped, falling into the memory.
Should it be a pretty bead, or a spider like a bead?
I don't remember exactly.
But it should be right here.
It will talk, it will call me over, tell me to take it away, and ......
"That little girl over there, can you come and do me a favor?" A faint, weak voice sounded in my ears, and it sounded like a woman in her thirties. Although the voice is too small and sounds like it can be dyed at any moment, it can still make people feel a certain charm that belongs to mature women.
That kind of small, a little hoarse and lazy sexy voice can not only make men listen to it, but even women can't help but feel a little itchy in their hearts when they listen to it.
What's more, at that time, Mingmei was still a girl who happened to be in the middle of a long time, full of curiosity about the adult world, and eager to squeeze into the stairs to adults.
So she was naturally attracted by the voice, and couldn't help but walk in the direction from which the voice came.
Mingmei only felt like a bystander, watching the young man's self walk to the shining place in the corner, and sighed silently in her heart.
She had almost figured out what she was like now. Although she knew that what was happening in front of her was illusory, just a memory buried deep in her mind and she didn't want to recall, she still wanted to remind her loudly not to touch that thing when she saw her teenage self reaching out and picking up the blue spider on the ground!
Unfortunately, in this dream, she can't control her body movements.
So she could only watch as before, after "herself" picked up the spider on the ground, she was bitten by the spider fiercely.
The scene in front of me spun rapidly, and a strong desire to vomit welled up in my stomach.
Mingmei held the little spider in her hand, stood in place and shook for a while, and finally her eyes went black, and after shaking it a few times, she fell to the ground softly.
The last image in her memory was that of the aqua-blue spider slowly passing in front of her eyes, the fine hairs on its paws trembling gently.
It's so beautiful.
She thought so and fell into a deep sleep.
In a dream...... It should be said that in a dream within a dream, she heard her own painful screams, crying, pleading, cursing...... In the end, it all turned into feeble moans and low sobs.
It's useless, it's useless for you to do anything.
That thing won't sympathize with you.
It's just trying to live in your body and take over your body......
That's ...... Youkai!
When she regained consciousness again, she saw her teenage self, with slender arms and legs, yellow hair, a pointed chin and high cheekbones, and no blood on her lips, looking completely malnourished.
There are a few tiny spider webs hanging around, and a few tiny spiders are crawling quickly between the webs, weaving their webs, and they seem to be very busy.
She glanced down at her hand. The hand was bloodless, pale and could even clearly see the pale cyan veins under the skin, and the slender fingers could see the protruding bone joints, as if they would break into two with a casual twist.
"It's starting again!"
Mingmei stared at the lines of her palm, sighed, raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, brushed her hair with her hand, and smiled.
In front of her was an endless white cobweb, and in the depths of the cobweb, there was a distant and ethereal voice, constantly shouting: "Child, come here, come here, let's play together......"
When Mingmei stood in front of the blue spider for the first time and reached out to pick it up, she was suddenly awakened by something.
It was a very strange feeling, as if there was something in her soul that she didn't know what it was, and it was crushed into powder by force.
Intense pain and vague visual hallucinations pulled her back from her deep sleep.
"When is it, why haven't those little cubs come back?" She muttered to herself and leaned over to the driver's seat in front of her, fumbling for a bag of snacks.
"I don't have anything else, but I eat a lot." She vigorously ripped open the snack bag, took out a potato chip from it and put it in her mouth, and immediately frowned.
"Tsk...... Super spicy! She said disgustedly at the potato chip packaging bag: "What kind of spicy food is sold, I don't know if anyone can't eat spicy food." ”
Having said that, she still ate the bag of potato chips slowly, frowned from time to time, put on a posture of "I'm out of the way", and continued to look down and feel for a new potato chip and stuff it into her mouth.
Just after she had finished eating two bags of potato chips, a loaf of bread, and a dozen marshmallows, there was a knock on the window of the car.
Mingmei subconsciously raised her head, and then thought that she couldn't see anything now, and lowered her head depressedly.
The sound of knocking on the window never stopped, and the people outside seemed to be a little irritable, he banged on the window hard, cursed loudly, and raised his leg to kick the car door from time to time.
"Bright! I know you're right here. The man shouted loudly outside the car, "Don't pretend to be a turtle here, get out of here!" ”
Mingmei listened to the man's hysterical roar, and suddenly asked suspiciously: "Xie Han?"
