Chapter 55 Deeper Doubts (Ask for Collection Recommendation)
The fat man and I were hiding in the corner of the ear chamber, gasping for air. After a while, the fat man said, "Damn, those things are covered with stones, and their brains are also stony, so they just rolled down the cliff outside." ”
"Why don't you go out and have a look?" I said in shock.
", it's your blood that makes those things come out, and it's up to you to go, maybe you're related to them." The fat man suddenly looked at me as he spoke, "Eh, that's it, why does your blood work as soon as it goes up?" ”
"How the do I know?" It was a little strange to say, but I suddenly thought of something else, "By the way, now we know that the mountain rock and the stone above our heads are fake, and now that those insects are gone, then you should be able to see the place where you fell." ”
"Guess it's useful here, let's go out and have a look." After the fat man had finished speaking, he walked towards the firelight outside the door, and I followed him.
As soon as we arrived at the door, the fat man and I saw a few stone worms crawling around on the ground. The fat man grabbed the two insects with his hand.
"Damn, this thing is heavy enough, it can't really be a stone." As he spoke, the fat man handed me one of them. I took it with palpitations, only to feel that the six long legs of this insect were extraordinarily strong, and if I didn't pinch it hard, it would definitely run away. The stone worm is small, only the size of three fingernails, but its legs are extraordinarily long, and I'm not sure if it's a spider or something. After turning it over, I found that its belly was white and soft, so it was possible that the stones were just attached to its back. I was wondering what this thing was, when suddenly I felt something darker on its white belly, and I looked a little familiar. But the light was very dim at this time, and I couldn't see it clearly, so I asked the fat man, "Is there any way you can take this thing out of the canopy?" ”
The fat man smiled, and then there were six crisp sounds, and the six legs of the worm were broken off for him. Then the fat man shoved the bug into his ass pocket, "That's it." ”
Many of the torches in the graveyard outside had been extinguished, and the ground was bustling with stone worms. However, this amount in front of him still did not pose a threat to the fat man, and he trampled on a lot of them while lighting the torch. This kind of bug, it's useless for you to step on its back, the fat man first turns them over with his toes, and then points to the stomach and kicks it. I saw that his instep was quite flexible, and I wondered if this guy had ever studied ballet when he was a child.
Looking at the fat man's figure again, I felt that my thoughts were funny. However, I soon stopped laughing.
As the fat man gradually lit the torches around him, it became clearer in front of us and above our heads. Maybe it's because of the light, but at first, I just thought that the rock and the top of the rock were gone, and there was only a narrow black belt in my field of vision. But it didn't take long for white things to appear in front of my eyes in the darkness.
I looked at the white shadows hanging in the air above me and swayed slightly, and I looked at them for a long time, but I still didn't recognize what they were. I only felt as if they were all hanging in the air, floating faintly in the dark world of nothingness.
There seemed to be a larger space above us and in front of us, but everything there seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and the light of the torches could not penetrate it, and even when I used the flashlight to shine it, the light disappeared into the darkness, and only the white shadows were still shaking.
"I found it!" The fat man in front suddenly shouted excitedly, and I ran over to take a look, only to see that behind the previous rock, there was indeed a step to the head.
"This is the staircase that leads to the main burial chamber?" I'm also a little excited.
"Damn, it must be. This time you don't have to be trapped to death. The fat man shouted, very excited, I just didn't understand why he wanted to mention the word "again".
The depression in my heart finally eased when I saw the stone steps in front of me. However, I just wanted to laugh, but suddenly I remembered peanuts again. I couldn't help but look back at the black iron door. At this moment, it would be nice if he could push open that door and come out of it.
The fat man probably saw what I was thinking, "Don't think about it, whatever?" That little brother didn't die in vain after all, besides, we just saw that he was trapped inside, and things in the world are often not what we expected, maybe he has found a way out of it. ”
That's all I can think about.
Now, neither I nor the fat man want to delay any longer. The fat man stepped on the backpack, picked up a torch, and inserted the dagger back into his trousers, "Yuan Liuye also took care of me along the way, this time, the fat master will give you a turnaround." Find a living person, Lao Tzu will help you carry it out, even if he is dead, the fat man will also help him collect the corpse of the old man. ”
"Can you say a few words?" After getting used to the unscrupulous style of the fat man, I didn't talk back to him much.
Before going up the steps, I looked a little behind the steps and saw that the rocks at the bottom of the steps led all the way to the darkness inside, where the wind seemed to be stronger, and I only took one step before I dared to go any further. I don't know what else is behind this, but at the moment, although I am curious, I don't have the time or the courage to go any further.
When the two of them walked up the steps, they felt that there was nothing on either side, just like Peanut and I walked down that fork in the road. But this time, the bottom of the stairs is finally solid, and it is relatively wide, and my heart is finally a little relieved.
After walking some distance, I suddenly glanced back, and all of a sudden, the tomb became a shadow of light in the darkness under my eyes. I can still see the black door again, I don't know if it's my own illusion or what, I seem to see the door move slightly.
"I'm sorry," I sighed in my heart and continued to follow the fat man.
After walking for a while, I felt that I should be able to see the white shadows from my current position, so I raised my head. But when I looked at it, I felt a little wrong, because those things felt as high as when I looked at them down before, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
So I asked the fat man, "Eh, what do you think those white shadows are?" ”
The fat man stopped, looked around, and didn't say a word for a long time.
"What are you doing?" I thought this guy was going to mess with me again.
The fat man then looked at me with a strange expression, "What did you just show me?" ”
"Just those white shadows hanging around, you see, everywhere." I said, pointing at the fat man.
However, I suddenly noticed that there was something wrong with the fat man's expression. He looked at the top of his head again, and then said, "Is it because I have been malnourished recently, or are you blind, where did the white shadow come from?" ”
"You, can't you see?" I thought to myself, "No, there are so many, I guess it's hundreds, all over our heads." I saw it in the graveyard before. ”
"Hmph" The fat man looked at it again suspiciously, but still shook his head, "Miss Yuan, if you want to scare your fat master, this method is too clumsy." ”
"Who the has time to scare you." Although I said it earnestly, the cold sweat on my back was already coming out. Could it be that I'm really dazzled? Suddenly, I remembered what had happened in the cocoon. "Fatty, look at the back of my neck, look closely, red."
I turned around as I spoke. The fat man leaned in, "No, no, you really see something above our heads?" Or maybe you can make sure again. ”
I started to feel a little hairy in my heart, and when I looked up, the white dangling things were still hanging in the air. But when I look at it now, I feel a wave of horror again.
Presumably, my face was very ugly at this time, and the fat man stared at me for a long time, and said, "Actually, I thought about it for a while, maybe there is a reason why I can't see it." ”
"What do you mean?" I looked at the fat man.
The fat man seemed to be recalling something, and after a while he said: "When I came in with the earth dog and your father before, I always saw Yuan Liuye who loved to look up when he had nothing to do, I thought there were murals or reliefs on it, but when I looked up, there was nothing, but your father's eyes at that time were just like you now." I asked him what he saw, but he just smiled at me and said he didn't see anything, he was just thinking about things. But I always felt that something was wrong, because Yuan Liuye looked up like that too many times. Especially his expression at that time, it was clearly the kind that would only be revealed when he was looking at something. ”
Hearing the fat man say this, I began to feel a deeper chill rush into my heart.
"Moreover, the effect of your blood just now is too strong, fat man, I am now starting to think that your Yuan family may have something to do with this place."
I couldn't help frowning and scolded in a low voice, "What's going on here?" ”
The fat man patted me, "Anyway, let's not care about anything, if there is anything else, you will not see it, so that we can save time again." After thinking about it, the fat man added: "But if you see a beautiful female ghost, remember to greet me." ”
I didn't have the heart to laugh with him, but I could only keep going. With those experiences in the cocoon room, I didn't dare to look at those things on my head anymore, and I just stared at the fat man's back all the way.
