Chapter 39: Difficult to distinguish between the true and the false
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, in case the fire below ignites, it will cause a bigger explosion, and it is important to protect myself first, and I will cover the broken corpse of the one-horned again, because I really don't want to look at that face again, and the fear and doubt in my heart will be increased if I see it again.
Carrying Jiang Li's backpack on my back, I stepped on the spiral staircase made of iron plate again. As I climbed up, I cursed that the stairs were too long, but on second thought, if we had gone up the mountain from outside, it would have been a thousand times more painful than this, and in fact, we were lucky to find it here. It's just that there is a good start, but there is no good ending, obviously everyone's mood has just improved, Lao Li and they came uninvited, and they made it clear that they wanted to block me.
Lao Li, when they see the unicorn, they will definitely know that I have not gone down the mountain, so they have to search all over the mountains? In the future, we will have to be more careful on the road.
Thinking of the unicorn, I couldn't help but start to wonder, either the dead man and the unicorn looked alike, or the dead corpse was indeed a unicorn, and now the unicorn accompanying the fat brother was in disguise.
I began to recreate in my head what was going on, we had been going upstairs, and I didn't know what was going on below, so I could only analyze what happened based on what the unicorn had said when he came up. When I told the horn that there was a road on it, the horn must have turned around and ran up, and it wouldn't be long before he was caught up, and what happened after he caught up? I can't figure it out.
It stands to reason that the one horn was escorted downstairs and then two or three men were assigned to continue chasing us, but the young man died, and shot before he died, which was the first suspicion.
After that, there was an explosion below, and the unicorn said that he detonated the arms below, so it can be confirmed that they caught the unicorn, and the unicorn set the arms on fire when the others were not paying attention, or that the unicorn broke free while others were unprepared, and then detonated. Then the second suspicion comes, why is the unicorn that detonated the arms not injured at all? But he was able to get out of the way, instead of being cannon fodder directly in it?
The more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, and I concluded that the real one-horn had been blown up, and that it was the male corpse I saw, and the one-horn who managed to run up must be fake, and what he said must have been watery. This is a reasonable explanation why the body of the one-horned man below is not clothed, because someone wants to pretend to be him, and he needs to strip off his clothes and put them on himself.
If you pretend to be a one-horn, what is the motive? Assuming that Lao Li and his gang can go up directly to catch up with us, and then use all kinds of means to forcibly coerce or persuade us to go down the mountain, there is no need to pretend to be a single horn and blend in with us.
If not mercenaries, then there are others down here? And this person will have that legendary disguise? Even the voice of a single horn is imitated vividly? I'm afraid this is not often seen in movies, right? It's weird. Besides, even if there is such a master, in such a short period of time, there are one-horns and mercenaries fighting below, how did he do it quickly?
Even if there are people outside, there are really people who can mix in and pretend to be a single horn without everyone paying attention, and then hide the body of the single horn after the one horn dies, and take off his clothes and put them on himself, then this person is too godly, and he even knows that the one horn will die? So what is his purpose? It wasn't meant for us to lead the way and where he was going, right? Because even we don't know where we're going.
What secrets is it to probe into? In our team, there are actually a lot of secrets, such as Su Rina is a policeman, my eyes are the eyes of the sky, and Yan Qiu's tattoo has another secret. But who would be bored enough to know any of this? It's not much to get to know. I can't figure out how to think about it, and the more I think about it, the more fantastical it becomes, and I have led myself to a dead end.
If what I thought before was wrong, and then think about it from another angle, the one who came up alive was the real one-horn, then who was the one who died below? One-horned twin brother? So why not get dressed? Could it be that he wore a famous brand, and was taken off by Lao Li and sent to the pawnshop? It seems that only this absurd reason can explain what I see.
Thinking in my head, it seems that the journey is much shorter, and I don't feel tired, and I have already reached the top. I emerged from the mouth of the cellar and went back to where I had been hiding, hiding in the shadows to make sure no one was following me before I followed the others.
The footprints in the snow were very clear, I stepped on their footprints, bypassed an icy mountain wall, and saw the fat brother and them, sitting on a big rock exposed in the snow to trim, still discussing who was the least daring and the fastest just now.
When they saw me coming back, everyone got up and asked me if there was anything going on?
I threw the bag and handed it to Jiang Li, Jiang Li smiled and was about to speak, I hurriedly interrupted her, in order not to let others know that I went down again, not only for fear that others would complain that I would die, but mainly because I didn't want this unicorn to know, I went back again.
Back to the arsenal, that stairwell is the way to go, in case he is fake, then I must have seen the corpse of the real one-horned, and it is not impossible that he quietly killed me in order to hide his identity.
I took advantage of Jiang Li's lack of speech, and hurriedly said: "There is no situation in the back, those mercenaries didn't catch up, and they were probably injured by the explosion made by the unicorn." Then he turned his head and glared at Jiang Li and said, "We are evacuating, not deserters, if it weren't for me in the back, you wouldn't know halfway through." ”
Jiang Li was careful, and immediately understood what I meant, and stuck out his tongue pretending to be sorry to me, so he didn't speak again, and ran to the side to open the zipper to check the contents of the bag.
I tentatively asked the unicorn, "What did you blow up underneath?" Why are those people so careless? Did you really hurt anyone? Someone else's house is on fire, looking for us to take revenge. ”
Unicorn smiled and said: "I was also lucky, they caught me before, I took advantage of the unpreparedness, kicked the bonfire we lit on the second floor downstairs with my feet, and when they pointed a gun at me downstairs, it just exploded." I turned around and ran up before they could react. According to the position at the time, it is estimated that no one was hurt, otherwise I would have been implicated. ”
This one-horned story makes sense, if I hadn't seen the corpse below, how could I not believe him? I took a closer look at the face of the unicorn, and if it was that kind of disguise, the edge of the face plate should have a trace of sticking to the skin, but after looking at it for a while, I didn't see the seams, and I didn't dare to stare at the unicorn, for fear that he would find out that I had something abnormal.
Even so, Unihorn noticed that something was wrong with me, and he smiled and asked me, "What do you see?" I have gold on my face? ”
I said with a smile on my face: "I simply worship you so much, I have cured those mercenaries by myself, and my admiration for you is like a hundred miles of green mountains." ”
Before I could finish speaking, the fat brother also came over to joke with me, and said sarcastically while having fun: "Okay, okay, this time I will sing it, are you also standing on the high / post and looking down?" ”
The position where we were sitting was not far from the edge of the cliff, as soon as the fat brother said this, I unconsciously looked down and looked down, it didn't matter, there was actually a heavy dà found, I pointed to the mountain wall below, and said to everyone: "Look, what is that?" ”
Everyone looked down.
On the glowing ice wall, we actually saw a row of iron rings, which were buried in the soil before, and the kind of iron chains that were fixed in the fat brother's dream.
I carefully discerned the direction, and perhaps I was not mistaken, the iron ring at the bottom of the mountain led all the way to where we are now.
That is to say, the ancients relied on this iron ring to climb the mountain, and the destination was the ice field at the summit of the peak where we are now standing. If you deduce the purpose of their climbing, maybe you can clear my suspicions, the fat brother said that the person who took the lead looks very similar to me, I really have never been here, after all, no one wants a team of people to doubt themselves.
I touched my chin and asked the others: "You said that in such a dangerous place, are those Qing Dynasty people mentally abnormal, and they actually climbed here by iron chains, and they don't want to die?" ”
Yan Qiu continued: "What is this, have the ancients done less lifeless things?" It must be for some purpose. The question is, can you stop worrying about the fat brother's dreams? Know that it's just a dream. ”
said it was a dream, but in fact, it was sensed by the fat brother when he died frequently. I don't know much about spirits yet, but at least I do, so I have to get tangled up in my fat brother's dreams.
I asked, "What is the purpose of the reverse?" ”
Everyone shook their heads in thought.
The fat brother's eyes widened and said, "Could it be that there is a treasure buried in some piece of snow?" Let's look for it, don't really ask us to catch it. ”
The unicorn also became excited, and nodded yes again and again.
The reason why he is willing to walk with us is nothing more than to get a piece of the pie, and now that he has eyebrows, he is naturally happy. The original intention has not changed, and I can't see a flaw, is this really a one-horn? Shall I sue him for the storage of the one below?
