Chapter 30: Strange People
Chapter 30: Strange People
As the light in front of him became brighter and brighter, Fan Peixi gradually saw the scene in front of him clearly, and to his surprise, after putting on the mask, what he saw and heard was different from just now.
Now, although he doesn't have a flashlight on his hand, everything in the jade corridor seems so clearly visible to him.
He found that after putting on the mask, the jade corridor around him changed wonderfully, and the jade corridor became more complicated, and he felt that the place where he was standing was like a labyrinth, with corners and walls everywhere.
He saw the one-eyed old man again, but this time he saw the one-eyed old man was not a skinned zombie.
At this moment, the one-eyed old man crouched down in a corner of his far wall, his body swaying gracefully like a tumbler, and his mouth muttering something.
What's going on? Fan Peixi said in her heart, is all this really an illusion, everyone is not actually dead, but just confused by the illusion in front of them? He looked at the runes on the wall, could they be the cause of the hallucination?
He looked left and right again, but for the time being, he didn't find Zhang Hefang, Binzi and the others, he saw that the one-eyed old man was still in a fantasy realm, and couldn't help but want to wake him up. But he looked at the strange figure of the one-eyed old man, and thought of the skinned zombie just now, and couldn't help but retreat a little.
Fan Peixi shook her head and said to herself: "Illusion, it's just an illusion, it's not real, there's nothing to be afraid of." ”
In fact, such words seem to have no effect on himself, but in the current situation, the only person who can comfort him is himself.
Fan Peixi pondered for a moment, and shouted softly in a trembling voice, "Uncle Chen." ”
Suddenly, the one-eyed old man's body froze, he no longer swayed, and seemed to have some reaction to Fan Peixi's voice.
Seeing this, Fan Peixi was overjoyed, so she couldn't help but shout again, "Uncle Chen, it's me, I'm Fan Peixi." ”
Unexpectedly, this time, Fan Peixi's voice became much louder, but the one-eyed old man seemed to be even more incomprehensible to Fan Peixi's shouting, so he shook himself again, and the frame looked as if he was reading the words on the wall, but he obviously didn't know those words.
Fan Peixi couldn't help but take a step forward and said, "Uncle Chen, wake up." ”
Who would have thought that Fan Peixi had just walked halfway, and the one-eyed old man's body suddenly turned around as quickly as lightning, holding a submachine gun in his hand, staring at the two eyeballless eye holes, and looking at Fan Peixi in a daze.
Fan Peixi screamed, and immediately, he found that this was not an illusion, the one-eyed old man's other eye had indeed been lost, and the submachine gun in his hand ...... Could it be that the one-eyed old man shot at himself?
Fan Peixi was quite timid, seeing that the situation was not right, he hurriedly pulled out his legs and ran, which ran for less than two steps, and saw the old python at a corner, the old python's posture looked very similar to the one-eyed old man, except that he was standing there, and then put his face on the wall without making a sound.
Fan Peixi took a closer look, only to see that the old python's face had completely sunk into the jade wall.
Fan Peixi exclaimed, he couldn't understand what was happening in front of him at all. Even if Long Bujin had warned him before, in this place, you can't think about things with logic, but with feelings. However, wasn't the old python already swallowed by the darkness just now, and how could it be like this now?
He didn't dare to stay here, he wanted to find Zhang Hefang and Binzi, it was best to meet Long Bujin earlier, in that case, she might be able to give an explanation of everything in front of her.
However, at this moment, the jade corridor has made him unable to figure out the direction, he can only be like a headless fly, stumbling around, walking in the intricate jade corridor for nearly ten minutes, during which he has also gone around many times, but he still forced himself to go on, because he always had a bad premonition, and finally dared as if as long as he stopped, a lot of terrible things would happen immediately.
Just as he was desperately looking for Zhang Hefang and the others, he suddenly heard a very faint voice around a corner, shouting "Mr. Fan...... Mr. Fan...... Mr. Fan......"
Fan Peixi listened attentively, and couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, isn't this voice Zhang Hefang's, Fan Peixi followed the sound for a long time, and finally found Zhang Hefang.
Fan Peixi thought to herself, since Zhang Hefang can still call my name, then he should have hope of being saved.
However, when he saw Zhang Hefang, he was still desperate. Zhang Hefang was not as conscious as he thought. Zhang Hefang seems to have turned into a living tape recorder, and is constantly muttering "Mr. Fan, Mr. Fan", which makes Fan Peixi feel hairy when he hears it.
In addition, Zhang Hefang's strange behavior also made Fan Peixi shudder, only to see Zhang Hefang standing in a dead end, with his back to Fan Peixi, and his hands seemed to be holding something on the wall. Although there is no road ahead, Zhang Hefang seems to be enchanted and still walks forward.
With each step, Zhang Hefang was bounced back into place, but he continued to walk, his forehead constantly hitting the jade wall in front of him.
"Mr. Zhang!" Fan Peixi detoured to the front of Zhang Hefang and shouted at him: "Zhang Hefang, wake up!" ”
But these are useless, and Zhang Hefang is still indifferent.
Fan Peixi's shoulders drooped, he was a little depressed, or rather, he was a little desperate. He no longer even had any hope of trying to find Binzi. He wanted to go back and get out of here, but at the same time he wanted to find Long Bujin. So, he began to shuttle back and forth in the corridor to look for it.
He searched aimlessly in the corridor, but no matter what, he couldn't find Long Bujin, as if Long Bujin had completely disappeared from here. Fan Peixi began to shout Long Bujin's name in the corridor, but it still had no effect.
However, it was at this time that he suddenly heard some strange sounds.
Fan Peixi was stunned, it was a clanging sound, which sounded like the sound of hitting a brick with a hammer.
Could it be Bu Jin? Fan Peixi felt a wave in her heart, and began to follow the sound little by little.
Soon, he was led further and further away by the voice, and he was surprised to find that as long as he followed the voice, he was moving away from the labyrinthine path behind him, and the road around him began to become simple and wide.
As he walked, Fan Peixi found that he was very close to the voice, and it seemed that the sound came from the bend in front of him.
Fan Peixi didn't rush over, he put his back against the wall, and poked his head out a little tentatively. The man who appeared in front of his eyes he had never seen before.
It was an old man with a withered face, and he looked very peaceful. The old man was holding a chisel in one hand and a stone hammer in the other, carving something into the wall. Fan Peixi was taken aback, he remembered that Long Bujin once said that all the runes on this wall were laid by Wu Zong himself back then, could it be that the old man was the legendary Wu Zong?
He swallowed, still in disbelief.
At this time, the old man suddenly stopped what he was doing, but it didn't seem to be because of Fan Peixi's appearance, but because the old man had completed the most difficult carving.
The old man put down the chisel and the stone hammer, then looked at the jade wall, seemed to be very satisfied, and then blew on the jade wall with his mouth, and raised a lot of lime at once, and then, the old man touched the patterns on the wall with his hand, sighed heavily, and seemed to finally let go of the burden in his heart, and then he slowly turned his head and said to Fan Peixi: "You are finally here." ”
