"Naive, you don't want to die!"

Wu Xie suddenly felt that his arm was tight, and he had been grabbed from behind.

He looked back and saw the fat man's sweaty, angry face: "Do you want to fucking give the worm a funeral?" ”

Wu Xie was stunned, and found that he had left the place at some point, and unconsciously walked out in the direction of the stone door, and was about to walk into the range of flames!

"The little brother is playing and disappearing if he is not careful, and you kid is self-harming if you don't see it."

The fat man scolded: "You two, once you get to the fight, there is no one who can be relieved!" ”

Wu Xie was also taken aback in his heart: What happened to him just now? Obviously just looked at those "eyes", why was he attracted to the past as if he was obsessed?

Seeing that Wu Xie was silent, the fat man was also a little worried, and said, "Are you okay naïve?" You see, we have come to the end of our journey, and the revenge of the brothers can be regarded as revenge. Otherwise, let's retreat strategically this time, and then make a comeback when we have enough manpower and equipment? ”

After walking this way for so long, the fat man was the last to propose a retreat.

In fact, Wu Xie understood that for this operation, the preparations they made were far from sufficient, and it could even be said that they were completely blind and knew nothing.

They don't know who built this place, they don't know the mechanics and structures here, they don't know what is hidden here.

The only thing I know is that my brother is here.

And now Wu Xie also found that he couldn't even talk about understanding Zhang Qiling.

It's like the fat man teased before leaving: "I said naïve-"

"Are you sure that little brother needs us to save him?"

"Maybe this time he just wants to find a place to be alone?"

Wu Xie had to admit that although the fat man usually has nothing to do and runs the train with his mouth full of gags, he is a very reliable person inside.

He spared his life, but he was not afraid of death.

He also cares about his little brother, but he is not as emotional as himself, and he has nothing to think about.

The fat man even knows and trusts the little brother better than Wu Xie himself. He is wise enough, so he knows Zhang Qiling's ability better, and he also understands the scale of being a brother. On the contrary, it is himself, as long as the stuffy oil bottle is not under his nose, he will be cranky and careless.

Wu Xie silently said to the fat man in his heart: Thank you, brother.

Thank you for watching me go crazy and accompanying me to be willful.

However, I can't stop yet.

Find the stuffy oil bottle, not to save him, but to save myself!

Wu Xie rubbed his face vigorously with his hands, put his backpack on the ground and began to count the equipment.

"Naively, did you hear what I said?"

Food, Medicine, Fuel...... Everything is enough to last four to five days.

"This little fuel on the ground won't last long, as soon as the fire is extinguished, these insects will come down to retaliate, and even if you light me at that time, it will be useless!"

The ground beneath his feet was a little hot.

The fat man was observing the movement of the insects on the one hand, and worrying about Wu Xie's state on the other, constantly walking around in a limited circle of open space, looking really like the "ants on a hot pot" as the saying goes.

Wu Xie wanted to make fun of him, but his heart was heavy and he couldn't laugh.

He stopped the fat man, took him by the arm, and said, "The road is not yet at the end, but it is in that door." ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment and said, "Innocent you-"

"Needless to say."

Wu Xie interrupted him and said, "The rest of the road is my own path." The safety of the brothers outside is entrusted to you, fat master. ”

- It's weird underground. In the end, the dumb man said that the rest of the way was his own business, and that it had nothing to do with the others, so he triggered the mechanism and locked us out of a stone door.

This is how Black Glasses describes the scene when he is separated from Zhang Qiling.

At the moment when Wu Xie said these words to the fat man, he finally understood what the stuffy oil bottle had done at that time.

Without waiting for the fat man to react, Wu Xie picked up the searchlight and strode into the area where the fire was gradually extinguished.

The door was right in front of you.

The stuffy oil bottle is right behind this door.

Wu Xie found that in this life, there was always a door between him and Zhang Qiling.

Bronze, stone, or an invisible door to the heart.

On both sides of the door, one end is the ultimate world, and the other end is the world of ordinary people.

On the one end is heavy fate, and on the other end is freedom that can be squandered at will.

All along, Zhang Qiling's way of protecting Wu Xie was to keep him out. And Wu Xie's way of protecting Zhang Qiling was to keep getting him out of the doors.

Perhaps, they all did it wrong -

Standing in front of the stone gate that stood on top of the sky, countless "eyes" silently "looked down" at Wu Xie.

He put his hand over the dark red stone sculpture and imagined what it would be like for these "eyes" to open together.

Where is the organ?

Could it be one of these special "eyes"?

A pair of fat hands also joined in, and their hands were up and down at these "eyes", and the movements could almost be said to be obscene.

"Fatty—"

After the words, Wu Xie found that he couldn't go on.

"Little brother is not your alone, he is also my brother. Don't make me fat every time, I'm like a third party intervenes! ”

Wu Xie looked at the fat man's serious side face and felt a little choked in his throat, so he didn't say anything, buried his head and concentrated on finding the mechanism.

Suddenly, Wu Xie touched a place on the stone gate that was relatively smooth.

It was a palm-sized blank space.

The shape is irregular, and there is no pattern. Wu Xie didn't know if this was the way it was, or if someone had deliberately erased something that was originally there.

He traced the edge of the blank space and put one of his hands on it—

Just enough to fit the palm of an adult's right hand, with only a slight margin at the index and middle fingers.

A dizzying lightning flashed through Wu Xie's mind in an instant, and then, his fingers spasmed irrepressibly.

He used his left hand to hold his right hand, which was trembling with excitement, but his voice was surprisingly calm.

"Fat man, why do you say that insects are afraid of the paper talisman drawn by the surnamed Chen?"

"Why?" The fat man picked at those "eyes" one by one, and said impatiently: "Could it be that the surname Chen wrote 'Do not look at indecent manners' and 'Do not move' in insect language on the charm?" ”

Wu Xie said: "Actually, I should have thought of it a long time ago. You're right, zongzi doesn't know how to read, and of course insects can't read characters. ”

"What they are really afraid of is not the words on the symbols, but the 'pheromones' carried on them!"

"Pheromones?"

The fat man stopped what he was doing and looked at Wu Xie with some inexplicability.

The fire behind him gradually dimmed, and a palpitating "rustle" sound sounded all around.

Wu Xie pulled out a tactical dagger and slashed his palm without hesitation.

Under the fat man's surprised gaze, Wu Xie slowly pressed his hand towards the palm-shaped blank space on the "Sleeping Gate".

- Little brother, don't sleep.

The blood on his hands was instantly absorbed by the wall, and not a single trace of it flowed to the ground.

- If you continue to sleep like this, you will get Alzheimer's disease.

Wu Xie felt that the huge stone door was like a bloodthirsty monster, greedily sucking human blood.

- If this is the place of sacrifice, then who is the recipient?

The blood in his body was now draining out rapidly through the incision in his right hand at an uncontrollable rate.

- And whom, will be the sacrifice?

……

A strong feeling of dizziness kept coming. But just then, he heard the fat man let out a howl of surprise—

"Those 'eyes' are open!"

Wu Xie raised his head with difficulty, but his vision was blurred. But he knew—

The "eyes" opened.

The trap is on.

This time, I finally made the right bet......

Wu Xie didn't know how long he had fainted, maybe only for a few seconds.

When he could see clearly, he noticed that the stone door had opened a gap one man wide.

The fat man helped him and smiled bitterly: "As the saying goes, 'if you don't hit the south wall, you won't look back', I think you can break his mother's south wall for the sake of the little brother." ”

Wu Xie grinned and wanted to laugh, but found that his temples hurt from jumping and jumping.

He struggled to his feet, his steps vaguely towards the gap.

For some reason, the word "white horse passing through the gap" suddenly flashed through his mind.

Life is like a white horse. If it's worth it, then even if it's only for a moment, isn't it worth it?

"What do you mean, naïve—"

Wu Xie stood between the cracks and blocked the fat man from the door: "There are still four lives outside, little brother, I will find it." ”

"Let's Iron Triangle, we want to live together, we want to die together, and no one wants to leave anyone behind!"

The fat man squeezed hard, but Wu Xie resolutely pressed his chest.

He said: "What I have done to my little brother, even if I die a thousand times, it is not enough to atone for my sins. So this time, brother, you'll fulfill me—"

The fat man stared at Wu Xie's eyes and saw the calm despair inside. After a long time, he shook his head and finally took a step back.

"Take it," he handed the pistol to Wu Xie, "No matter what happens, I believe you, fat man." ”

"Bring the little brother out."

"I'm up there waiting for you to come back."

Wu Xie retreated behind the gap, and the huge stone door let out a dull "pop" and began to slowly close.

The fat man felt the residual warmth of Wu Xie's palm in his chest. He looked down and saw a highlighter in the pocket of his jacket, and a dark red handprint.

He looked at the stone gate again, and saw Wu Xie smiling and gesturing at him:

"Goodbye—"

Behind it is the darkness of the unknown.

The bright world outside became narrower and narrower in his line of sight, Wu Xie didn't look back, he didn't want to miss the last trace of warmth from the world in front of him.

Suddenly, a strong wind whistled overhead, like an angry arrow through the crack in the stone door, into the shadows inside the door. At the same time, the stone gate was completely closed, and the eyes were suddenly plunged into complete darkness.

Long.

Wu Xie turned around slowly.

"Who the hell are you?"

In the afterglow of the searchlight, a man stood silently several meters away.

"I'm a watcher."

Taoist Priest Chen's face was pale and solemn in the light.

"You shouldn't be here."

"Wu Xie—"
