Chapter 40: The Road of the Dead
There was nothing behind us, only the cold mist that was rising and escaping, and there was still a trace of the Heavenly Monk.
The four of them looked at each other, and they could all see the fear and doubt in each other's eyes. I patted my forehead to calm my tumultuous thoughts, "What did you see just now?" ”
The big head replied, "I first saw you shaking your feet, and when I came back to my senses, I saw that the monk in front of me had turned into an old lady, standing quietly like a statue with her waist bent." ”
Zhou Bu was unwilling to point to his feet: "I only saw four shadows on the ground, and there were no monks." ”
I then asked, "And what did you just see?" ”
Qi Qian said: "The three of us should all see the same, just see you squeezing your eyebrows and making some inexplicable moves, and finally pointed the gun at your temple." ”
I looked at the submachine gun on the ground that was destroyed by bullets, and my mouth was dry and astringent: "You fired the gun?" She nodded.
Silence, deathly silence. The four of us seemed to have lost interest in talking, and even the most deceitful heads had turned into flat-mouthed gourds, and sat on the ground with their heads down. My mind was also very confused, and what they said was obviously different from what I remembered, and I saw that it was a stranger who looked like a monk, but they saw that it was an old lady. It was the revenant who had taken control of my body, but they saw that I had raised my gun to my temple.
It's messed up, everything is messed up, I don't even know who to believe, whether to trust myself or the three of them? Could it be that I am really confused by the souls of the dead? After thinking about it deeply, I suddenly realized that what I was afraid of was not actually my mind being confused, but the fact that I would be confused!
Years of experience in martial arts training and scouting have given me an almost narcissistic pride in my psychological quality, and now that the pride has been broken, all that remains is annoyance and anger. Fortunately, I am a very competitive person, and my frustration is only temporary, and it is quickly replaced by unwillingness.
"When did the monk not see?"
"It's hard to say, it's gone in the blink of an eye." Scratching his head, Big Head recalled, "My attention was on your dangling hooves...... By the way, why did you shake your hooves back then? ”、
I didn't get angry: "Your feet are the hooves." At that time, my ankle was grabbed by a ghost hand, and I subconsciously trembled. ”
Qian Qian pinched her chin and pondered: "You say, monk...... Did it really appear? ”
In a word, let's all be terrified. It's not impossible, but in retrospect, there are indeed many doubts. First of all, the timing and place of the monk's appearance do not conform to common sense, he himself explained that it was because of spatial disorder, but even if it was spatial disorder, how could he appear impartially right behind us? And the main reason why we took the risk to come out of the operating room was that he said that he only had half an hour, was he deliberately inducing us to come out?
I told the other three about this, and Zhou was unwilling to raise objections first, if this monk was fake and intended to harm us, then why did he save us to the operating room? Why use your own blood to write scriptures to stop the souls? And it's not like taking off your pants and farting.
I can't answer that, there are too many irregularities in it. In the end, it was the big head who broke the tip of our horns, he snorted, and said with a big grin that these are all blind thoughts, anyway, they all came out, and they still wondered what to do with some of them, and it was the right thing to go forward first and find a way out.
His proposal was so reasonable and correct that we got up again and walked in the direction of the hospital lobby. At this time, Zhou was unwilling to put down the submachine gun on his body and handed it to me: "You still have this gun, I'm not used to it, just have a pistol." ”
I didn't shirk either, took the gun over and took the monk's place, and walked in front to take the lead. As soon as they raised their feet, several people were stunned again, and looked around in great surprise and found that it was foggy!
In a hospital, and indoors, we saw a white mist that shrouded our vision, stretching out our five fingers in front of us, and we could only see the faint hints of our fingers.
"Damn, it's foggy indoors, it's unheard of!" The big head cursed.
Zhou Buxing said: "This is not ordinary fog, it seems that the air is formed by condensation and atomization. ”
Indeed, when you put your hands on your skin, you can feel the tiny ice particles, and it doesn't take long for us to get wet all over our bodies, and the cold feeling is very uncomfortable. Fortunately, it can withstand it to the extent that it does not cause damage from extreme cold.
Qian Qian stretched out her arm, tentatively took five steps to the right, frowned slightly and took five steps to the left, stopped and said: "According to my memory, the width of the corridor is about four to five people, and I stretched out my arm just now and didn't touch any substantial objects, which indicates that the passage to the gate has actually disappeared." ”
The big hair was stunned: "Disappeared?" Like a monk who disappeared inexplicably? So what do we do, do we want to keep going? ”
Suddenly, Zhou Buunwilling stretched out his hand and pointed to the dense fog in front of him and exclaimed: "Look, the fog in front seems to be someone!" ”
After she shouted, we also found that in the dense fog ahead, there were indeed figures shaking, and the distance was not far away, which was estimated to be the length of the hall. As a soldier's brave spirit, let me take the initiative to take on the command of the small team, and I waved my hand very decisively, go!
The four men were armed with submachine guns and pistols, cautiously and cautiously approaching the front, and the fog became thicker at this time. The fog blurred the sense of distance, and it seemed that there was still some distance, and as soon as we opened our eyes, we were already in a position where the figure was shaking. This change is very abrupt, as if we have just lifted our feet, and many figures appear on both sides of our bodies.
"Ahh
Zhou Bulu's exclamation came, and I quickly raised my gun to look in her direction, only to see a half-cut old man, crawling under her feet. At the end of the severed body, black blood gushed out, Bai Sensen's broken bones faintly flashed, and the intestines dragging on the ground were like rags, dirty and obstructive.
"Save ...... Help me....... The old man crawled with great difficulty, and the intestines behind him flowed out too much, which slowed down his speed. The old man turned his head to look at the intestines on the ground, and pulled the intestines directly from his waist in his hand and tore them off, and then continued to crawl forward.
"Gross!"
Zhou was unwilling to stand such stimulation anymore, and knelt on the ground and vomited. Her eyes were blurred by tears, and she vaguely saw a headless person walking by, wearing a nurse's uniform, with fair and smooth skin, a convex and backward figure, a pair of Qianqianyu hands supporting her in mid-air, and above the palm of her hand was a female nurse's head, facing her miserable crying.
"Holy!" The big head was stimulated a lot, and he was about to shoot when he raised his gun.
I quickly grabbed his hand and shouted, "Don't shoot!" ”
"Why?" Big Head doesn't understand.
"It's not clear where we are now, but if it's still a hospital corridor, it will form a ricochet and injure my own people."
"Uh......." As soon as I reminded him, the big head also woke up and put down the gun in his hand stupidly.
"Do you remember what the Heavenly Rim Monk said?"
"This chattering monk has said a lot, which sentence do you mean?"
"Fate and fate are extinction, birth, old age, sickness and death, all of which are the cycle of cause and effect, and this is the way of heaven. As long as you uphold your heart and are not deceived by illusions, you can be fearless and fearless. I looked around at the three of them and said in a deep voice, "You see, these souls are just passing by us, but they don't hurt us. This shows that whether the fate in the operating room is true or false, what is said is true. The three of us are still under protection, there is no need to be delayed by these illusions, and it is better to hurry forward and find a way out for the sake of today. ”
"It's true, but how can you explain that you were clearly confused by the dead soul just now?" Qi Qian cautiously asked.
I shook my head: "I don't know, the situation just now is very ...... It's weird, and it won't be explained for a while. Anyway, the focus now is on finding your way! ”
"A way out? Woo...... It's just ahead! ”
Very suddenly, an old woman suddenly emerged from the thick fog, seventy or eighty years old, dressed plainly, with a wrinkled face and a bitter face, stretching out her shriveled arms, trembling and pointing in the direction in front of the fog. I looked at this normal-looking old woman in astonishment, is this really a revenant? The tips between the eyebrows and the eyes are no different from the old man on the side of the road.
The old woman stretched her frowns, laughing more sadly than crying, and her chest parted at this time, revealing only bones in the abdominal cavity, and the heart, liver, spleen, stomach and lungs were all gone. She looked down at her empty abdomen, closed her hands nonchalantly, and continued to move forward with difficulty holding her stomach.
Goo-dong, goo-dong!
The sound of the four of us swallowing saliva came one after another, wiping the cold sweat from the corners of my forehead, and I waved my hand firmly and said, Go forward!
The fog flashed with all sorts of miserable souls, but they all headed in one direction, and we were blind to them. In this way, four living people, two rows of dead souls separated by each other, actually reached a delicate balance, and moved towards the unknown ahead together.
After walking for a while, I suddenly figured out something and shouted violently: "Wait a minute, I can't go any more!" ”
The big head was already having a nervous breakdown, and when he heard this, he asked impatiently, "What's the matter?" ”
With a gloomy face, I pointed to the souls of the dead who kept walking on both sides and said, "The passage to the hall is only about twenty steps away, and it can be completed in two or three minutes, but we have already walked for almost ten minutes just now, why are we still walking with them." This is not the road to the hall at all, but a path of revenants, and if we continue to walk, we will also become revenants in place of death! ”
