Volume II, Chapter 16, repeatedly
CHAPTER XVI
Repeatedly
It happened so suddenly that Xiaoxue didn't expect it at all. It hurt a lot from her hips, but she got up strongly. complained in my heart: This dead Ruan Xiaotian, when he saw that I fell, he didn't come to pull me. Looking back, you look good!
However, when Xiaoxue got up and saw the scene in front of her, she was shocked. She had thought about many possibilities, and she had thought about many outcomes, but she couldn't think of the ending in front of her.
Her view of the world was completely shocked, and even if she wanted to break her head, she couldn't understand what was happening in front of her. It's too unreasonable, it's too unexpected.
I saw the whole carriage, and it suddenly returned to the way she was when she first got on the train. Just like everything that happened before, it's all unreal, it's all a dream.
The charming young woman is still holding a make-up mirror and taking pictures of herself. That scene, not to mention how charming it is, how soul-stirring it is. The nervousness and helplessness just now swept away on her face, as if nothing had happened. She was there and kept smiling. For fear that others would see it, the smile was fleeting. The whole action is exactly the same as what Xiaoxue saw at the beginning. It's like a movie, and it's played again.
And the ** uncle who was sitting next to the charming young woman, I don't know when, sat back in his original seat. A pair of eyes stared straight ahead, motionless, like a statue, towering in the carriage.
If it weren't for the fact that he could still see his exposed, thick arms, the rolling, bulging veins. Xiaoxue will really think that Uncle ** is a vivid wax figure.
Let's take a look at the young couple again. Sure enough, as Xiaoxue expected, the two of them were facing each other, with headphones in their ears, and they were closing their eyes and listening to music leisurely. It seems that nothing else has anything to do with them except themselves.
Sitting behind a young couple, a white-collar petty bourgeoisie, holding a notebook in both hands, swearing and saying the same foul language. This is completely inconsistent with his appearance.
Before, Xiaoxue sat in front of the white-collar petty bourgeoisie, so she couldn't see the contents of the notebook. Now, she is sitting in the back row, and next to her is Ruan Xiaotian. Therefore, at this time, she can clearly see the notebook of the white-collar petty bourgeoisie. Sure enough, as Xiaoxue thought before, that white-collar petty bourgeoisie was really speculating in stocks.
Looking at the incredible situation happening in front of her, Xiaoxue was at a loss. This is the first time she has encountered this kind of thing, and she doesn't know how to explain it.
Those people seemed to be completely ignorant of what had just happened, or rather, in their eyes, nothing had happened in this carriage, and everything was no different from normal.
Wait, Xiaoxue finally found a little difference with the difference. That is, the smiling granny is really gone. In other words, all the events that have happened before are real, not simply repeated.
So, what's going on?
Is it like a certain sci-fi blockbuster, with what kind of thing is flashed, and the memories of everyone in the car are ruthlessly erased? And the reason why I am so lucky is because I happened to fall and didn't see it?
Or did you fall into a time spiral that brought the whole event back to the beginning and started again? And is the reason why I am so lucky, or is it because I happened to fall?
These far-fetched reasons are not believed by Xiaoxue herself.
However, she quickly thought of someone she had just overlooked, but was very important, and that was Ruan Xiaotian sitting next to her.
Ever since he fell and got up, Ruan Xiaotian has not made a sound. Xiaoxue turned her head to look, and Ruan Xiaotian really returned to the way she was when she first got into the car. Draped in an overcoat and slept there.
Xiaoxue didn't think about it, ripped off his coat, and kept shaking Ruan Xiaotian's body. He shouted while shaking: "Ruan Xiaotian, you wake me up, wake me up quickly."
"Holy." Standard, Nguyen Xiaotian's mantra blurted out of his mouth.
Ruan Xiaotian stretched his waist, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he scolded: "Damn, who, who is so bold, dare to wake me up." When I looked back, it turned out to be Xiaoxue, her face changed color all of a sudden, and she said gently, "Sister Xiaoxue, why are you also in the car?"
Looking at that expression, it is not difficult for Xiaoxue to see that Ruan Xiaotian also seems to have lost his memory. However, she still asked in disbelief: "Ruan Xiaotian, do you remember what happened just now?" After speaking, a pair of eyes stared at Ruan Xiaotian, and he didn't let go. Seeing that Ruan Xiaotian's heart was straight, and his uncertain face changed several colors.
After thinking about it, Ruan Xiaotian's face was not very good-looking. His face began to distort because of nervousness, as if he was desperately thinking about something, but he couldn't seem to think of anything.
It didn't take long for Ruan Xiaotian to speak: "What happened just now? Sister Xiaoxue, I remember that I was sleeping all the time! Nothing seemed to have happened just now, did it?" He looked at Xiaoxue with puzzled eyes.
Xiaoxue still didn't give up and said: "Think about it again, don't you think there is anything changed in the car, something is missing?"
Hearing Xiaoxue say this, Ruan Xiaotian hurriedly raised his head and observed the situation in the car. After a while, he suddenly said in amazement: "Alas! Why is that old woman gone?"
This made Xiaoxue overjoyed, and all of them lost their memories and returned to the starting point. It seems that Ruan Xiaotian is better than she imagined, at least he can remember something.
Xiaoxue took the opportunity to ask, "Think about it, what else can you think of?"
This time, Ruan Xiaotian said without hesitation: "Find out what doesn't belong to this car!"
"Yes, yes." Xiaoxue was so happy, clapped her hands and said, "Do you remember everything?"
I thought that Ruan Xiaotian could say something more. But at this time, the interior of the carriage began to change. The boy in the young couple suddenly stood up, walked up to the driver, and asked, "Excuse me, when will you get to the watershed?" The driver replied coldly: "It's almost there!"
When the boy heard this, he said no more. When he got back to his seat, he made out with the girl, completely ignoring whether there was anyone around him.
Xiaoxue was surprised, she thought that since she had returned to the starting point. Then, all the events that have happened will be revisited as they were.
But no, things don't seem to be running the way they were. Xiaoxue remembers clearly that it was the smiling old lady who asked before, not the boy. What's going on here?
Wait, a thought suddenly flashed through Xiaoxue's mind. It was indeed the smiling old lady who asked before, but now she is gone, or rather dead.
So...... The person is gone, but the event is repeating. It's just that the executor of the incident has shifted from the smiling old lady to someone else's. Like, that boy?
Thinking of this, Xiaoxue was so surprised that she even opened her mouth wide. In her eyes, there was fear, hesitation, and more incomprehension. According to her understanding, the events that just happened are still repeating, and they have not changed at all.
Sure enough, just when Xiaoxue was stunned, the ** uncle, like before, sat next to the charming young woman for no reason. The charming young woman was the same as before, after glancing at the ** uncle, she didn't say anything, and continued to look in her mirror, admiring her beautiful face.
Xiaoxue glanced at Ruan Xiaotian, trying to find some answers from his face. However, Ruan Xiaotian's face, in addition to being nervous, was still nervous.
At this time, the charming young woman and the ** uncle sitting in the front row began to accuse each other. One said he took advantage of her and ate her tofu. One denied it, and the fierce one scolded the other party back.
This time, it's exactly the same as what Xiaoxue saw before, not even half a word.
Before Xiaoxue could react, the white-collar petty bourgeoisie over there also began to scold at the mobile phone. Word by word, even Xiaoxue knew what he would say next.
Then, I saw that the white-collar petty bourgeoisie suddenly dropped the mobile phone, and the broken mobile phone cover smashed on the girl's head unbiased again.
Then, needless to say, the boy and the white-collar petty bourgeoisie began to point fingers at each other. And the result can be imagined, the boy won the final victory with a high compensation of 500,000 yuan.
Everything is not much different from what happened before. The only difference, I'm afraid, is the smiling old lady. But what can it be, it doesn't seem to have changed anything because of the disappearance of the smiling old lady.
Xiaoxue just wanted to ask Ruan Xiaotian, but after Ruan Xiaotian watched all this, he suddenly said, "Damn, hell, why is it exactly the same as before?" Sister Xiaoxue, am I dreaming?"
"Do you remember anything?" Xiaoxue asked with some disbelief, "Didn't you say that you didn't remember anything, but now you remember it again?"
"Holy, what's going on? Sister Xiaoxue, when you just woke me up, I really couldn't remember anything. However, when I saw what I had just seen, I remembered it all at once." Ruan Xiaotian stared at Xiaoxue and said.
Now there is a problem, all the people in the car, except for Xiaoxue herself, everyone else is repeating the same thing over and over again, and they themselves don't know that they are repeating the same thing. Until someone in the car disappears, the whole thing goes back to the beginning and starts again.
But the problem is that after Xiaoxue woke up Ruan Xiaotian, he was able to remember everything that happened before. But don't forget, Ruan Xiaotian is also a member of the car.
So, what happened in between?
Xiaoxue suddenly slapped her thigh and said, "I know what the problem is, what is the problem with the Dao?"
She roared like this, and the eyes of everyone in the car were focused on her. Of course, except for the driver, he seems to be very dedicated and indifferent to everything that happens in the car.
Ruan Xiaotian looked at her and said, "Damn, Sister Xiaoxue, what are you doing, you are shocked, what do you know?"
Xiaoxue seemed to have discovered a new continent, and said in surprise: "I know that Ruan Xiaotian can have a memory for you, but these people have forgotten everything." As he spoke, he pointed to the other people in the car.
Being hooked by Xiaoxue like this, Ruan Xiaotian's curiosity also rose, and he said excitedly: "Oh! Damn, for what, for what, Sister Xiaoxue, what is this for?"
Xiaoxue said: "If my guess is correct, originally, you will be like them, you will keep repeating the same events in this car, and you will not know anything, and you will lose the memory of any detail, until you are also made disappear by this car. But you didn't, I'm thinking, and the only explanation is that I broke your constant repetition. In other words, your awakening was not originally woken up by me. That is to say, I changed your trajectory in this space that should have been normal. So, you don't have amnesia and remember it clearly. This can also prove that so many people disappeared from the car, and the rest were still indifferent, and they didn't find anything that didn't belong to the car. Ruan Xiaotian, do you think I'm right?"
After listening to Xiaoxue's explanation, Ruan Xiaotian nodded meaningfully and said, "Damn, Sister Xiaoxue, you seem to be very reasonable!"
"Of course, who am I?" Xiaoxue smiled proudly.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much Sister Xiaoxue for saving me from the dire situation." Ruan Xiaotian was very pious, and he was deeply moved.
"You're welcome!"
"Then what are we going to do next, Sister Xiaoxue?"
That's a problem, too, and Xiaoxue meditated. But at this moment, an extremely sharp scream came out of the carriage. Immediately afterwards, the boy in the young couple suddenly plopped and fell to the ground, blood splattered all over the carriage. And the screams were made by the girl next to him.
Xiaoxue secretly screamed that it was not good, and a new round of disappearance was about to start again.
In the car, everyone who was originally calm and relaxed was shocked by this sudden change. So, as before, some people started to get nervous, some people started to get scared. All of a sudden, they all seemed to have regained their memories again, and the sense of fear one by one was deeper than before.
Xiaoxue didn't dare to speak, she looked at the boy who fell to the ground. Motionless, I don't know the way of life and death. However, judging by the pattern of events, the boy's chances of survival are not high.
Ruan Xiaotian's eyes also widened at this time, staring at the boy on the ground without blinking. The scene of the smiling old lady being disappeared suddenly flashed in his mind. Could it be that the boy on the ground will also disappear like a smiling old lady as concocted by law?
To everyone's surprise, not long after the boy fell to the ground, he saw that his feet began to grow as thin as pieces of paper as if they had been run over by a road roller. There seems to be something unseen that is crushing the boy.
This alone does not make people feel anything. The point is that during the crushing process, you can also hear the crunch sound of the bones being crushed. At the same time, the blood that was squeezed out was like a fountain, splashing in all directions. Some of them also splashed on Xiaoxue and Ruan Xiaotian's bodies. Suddenly, a strong smell of blood filled the carriage, which lasted for a long time.
The first to make a noise was the girl closest to the boy. Because she is closer, therefore, it is also the most real one. After hearing her voice, her face turned pale. Then, he fainted in his seat.
If it was in normal times, encountering such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Ruan Xiaotian would definitely be the first to run over, and with a sincere appearance and a lewd mood in his heart, he would not hesitate to help that girl.
But now, let alone him, even anyone in the car will not have the slightest bit of pity. Now, they can't even take care of themselves, how can they care about the lives and deaths of others?
The white-collar petty bourgeoisie was still holding his laptop, cowering in horror in the corner next to his position. While looking at everything that was happening in front of him, he trembled and said, "Here it is again, here it is again. Why is it more terrifying than ever? Why is it bloodier than the last?"
The words are shaking, and the whole body is shaking.
The charming young woman, as usual, had been frightened to the point that there was no trace of blood on her delicate little face. The delicate and sexy body seemed to be unable to support it, and fell softly into the arms of the ** uncle.
At this time, all the previous reserves of the charming young woman disappeared. She said in a slightly old voice, "What to do, what to do?" We're all going to die here, we're all going to die." As he spoke, two lines of tears flowed down his pink cheeks.
The ** uncle sitting next to her, holding the jade hand of the charming young woman with one hand, gently patted the delicate back of the charming young woman with the other, and comforted and said: "As long as we find something that does not belong in the car, we will not die."
"However, we have been looking for so long, but we still haven't found anything." The charming young woman said with a sad face.
Xiaoxue at this time, suddenly found a problem. She found that while the situation in the carriage was repeated, it started again. However, it is not a complete copy, and there are still subtle differences. Especially when one of them starts to disappear and the others regain their memory, the difference is even greater.
Another point is that after recovering their memories, these people will always say that they have been looking for a long time, looking for things that do not belong in the car for a long time. But Xiaoxue got into the car until now, and she didn't see anyone looking for it, including Ruan Xiaotian.
Needless to say, some other time, some force erased their memories, causing them to be unable to remember anything. All they really remember is the few minutes when one of them began to disappear.
But in just a few minutes, Xiaoxue didn't see anyone come forward to look for it.
In other words, they keep saying they're looking for. Actually, no one actually looked for it. Because, I don't have that time to look for it. So, what exactly is it that doesn't belong in the car?
Just as Xiaoxue was pondering, the boy on the ground twitched. Xiaoxue saw that the invisible crushing had crushed the boy's legs. The legs were flattened, flesh and bones were mixed together, and no one could tell the other.
And then, something even more unbelievable happened. The boy's stomach began to press down, and in an instant, the intestines mixed with the fishy smell were squeezed out. Like blood, it splashed all over the carriage. A lot of people were splashed all over because they couldn't dodge.
So, in the compartment of this minibus, there were screams and wails. Especially the girls, their screams are even sharper.
Xiaoxue was okay, because at this critical moment, Ruan Xiaotian used his coat to stop the attack of feces on Xiaoxue, which made Xiaoxue very moved.
After a lot of commotion, Xiaoxue asked Ruan Xiaotian: "What do you think?" I don't think it's that simple."
Ruan Xiaotian changed the topic, he said: "Sister Xiaoxue, I have been thinking about another question. Why do all of us lose our minds, but you don't?"
When Ruan Xiaotian said this, Xiaoxue realized this. Before that, she had focused all her attention on the other passengers, completely oblivious to herself. Now that I think about it, that's really the case.
For what? Why do other people lose their memories, but only they remember clearly? Xiaoxue looked at Ruan Xiaotian suspiciously, as if she wanted to get an answer from him.
Seeing that Xiaoxue was looking at herself, Ruan Xiaotian said, "There is one more question. Sister Xiaoxue, do you know all these people in the car?"
Xiaoxue looked at the remaining passengers, then shook her head. Indeed, she didn't know any of these people, and she had never seen them before."
Ruan Xiaotian continued: "Although we have left the town of Fenshuilin, we have also lived for more than 20 years. The people of Watershed Town, even if we don't know their names, should be more or less familiar. However, these passengers are very strange now. Do you feel that way?"
Although what she said is true, Xiaoxue disagrees with this point of view. She said: "This is also normal, this car was originally driven from Zhou Tiezhen to Wuxi. Maybe these people are from Zhou Tiezhen, or from Wuxi."
"But I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say it for a while. Anyway, they made me feel bad." Ruan Xiaotian said seriously.
Xiaoxue rarely sees him serious.
At this time, the girl who had fainted in her seat woke up. Before she could say a word, when she saw the boy's miserable condition, she let out another thud and fainted.
Xiaoxue and Ruan Xiaotian shook their heads helplessly at the same time, cups! What did you do to torture the little girl?
The charming young woman finally couldn't stand it anymore, and rushed to the car door without everyone being prepared. He said incoherently, "I'm going to get out of the city, I'm going to go out of the city. I don't want to die, I don't want to die." Her spirit was on the verge of a near-breakdown, like she was crazy. The charm and coquettishness of the past are all gone.
Fortunately, the **uncle has a quick eye. As soon as he grabbed the charming young woman and dragged her back to her seat. Even so, the charming young woman was restless, struggling and tearing in her seat.
The uncle pressed her stiffly, and then said, "You can't leave, you'll die if you leave."
Unbeknownst to him, the charming young woman said even louder: "It's the same if you stay, everyone has to die, and no one can live." The original black and smooth hair is now unkempt like a pile of straw.
It's just that in this situation, how does Xiaoxue look like two people flirting. If it weren't for the fact that there was a boy's body lying on the ground, Xiaoxue would really think so.
The white-collar petty bourgeoisie hiding in the corner, the expression on his face changed from the original white to purple. Xiaoxue doesn't understand, after people are scared to the extreme, their faces turn blue?
At this time, I heard the white-collar petty bourgeoisie murmuring there: "It's over, it's over, we all have to die, we all have to die. We're not going to end well, we're all going to die." It's like talking to yourself, and it's like you're talking to everyone.
With that, he shrank back and hid himself even deeper.
Xiaoxue stood up suddenly, and Ruan Xiaotian hurriedly stood up and asked, "Sister Xiaoxue, what are you going to do?"
"No, we can't sit still and wait here to die." Xiaoxue said, "Since you want us to find something that doesn't belong in the car, then we'll look for it. Since there is a question, there will definitely be an answer."
"But, Sister Xiaoxue, where is the answer?"
"I've thought about it." Xiaoxue said, "I am the only one in the whole car who has not been erased, and maybe it is only me who can find the answer. It's too short a time for them, and it's still starting from scratch. Even if they do, I'm afraid they're back to square one. So, only I have plenty of time to find out."
"Why didn't I think of this, Sister Xiaoxue, you're right. I can recover my memories too, I'll help you."
The boy's body is still disappearing. When the heart was crushed, the blood in the carriage splattered even more. Almost the entire interior of the carriage has just been painted with a layer of red paint. The red is dazzling, the red is shocking.
The boy's body fell on the middle aisle, which had also been stained red with blood.
When Xiaoxue just wanted to step over the boy's body and prepare to start looking for it from the front of the car. But I suddenly found that my legs couldn't cross over. It was as if there was an invisible wall blocking her way.
Xiaoxue reached forward and touched it, but she didn't touch anything. But the legs, no matter how much you cross, just can't cross the boy's body.
Seeing that Xiaoxue had not moved forward for a long time, Ruan Xiaotian asked behind him, "What's the matter, Sister Xiaoxue?"
"Strange, I can't get through." Xiaoxue muttered, her eyes staring at the boy's corpse on the ground, and began to think about it again.
She remembers that she was able to move around when she first got in the car. Not only herself, but also other people in the car can move around freely.**Uncle and Smiling Lady have both left their seats.
So, when did the imprisoning of people begin?
Xiaoxue was thinking, could it be when someone started dying and disappearing, and the other passengers started to regain their memories? That's not right, the charming young woman and the ** uncle didn't leave the seat just now, and ran to the car door.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a thud, and the boy's head exploded like a balloon. White brains and red blood were splashed all over the body. She was the closest to the boy, and what had happened to her the worst.
Before he could react, the car began to shake violently again. Xiaoxue didn't stand still, and with a plop, she threw herself at the crushed boy's corpse.
But strangely, Xiaoxue didn't feel it at all, and under her, a flat corpse was pressed. Instead, she felt like nothing.
When I looked up, the situation in the carriage had changed strangely.
