Chapter 229: The Island of Eclipse (35) Chen Si (I)
"Fang Ruoxi, I'll come."
"Ah, don't leave. I'm fine, you go and rest, I'll just come. β
She raised her head slightly from her knees and looked at the two people on the other side, feeling a little ridiculous, and a little jealous and envious.
She listened to the two of them excuse each other and wanted each other to rest, and sneered silently, curling her body tighter.
It's really strange, why does she feel so cold when it's such a hot environment?
She must be sick, she thought.
It's just that she also knows very well that there is no one to cure her disease, and there is no cure.
"Rest for a while, I'll call you if there's something, don't worry."
On the other side, the two young ladies finally discussed the results, and watched Fang Ruoxi lie down, Mo Li took over Fang Ruoxi's work. The two are humble, harmonious and friendly, and everything has nothing to do with her.
She turned her head to look out of the cave, it was almost late at night, and it was pitch black outside, only a faint light, but it could not illuminate the deep darkness, just like her life.
It's nice to be in the dark, as long as it's in the dark, all the danger and squalor are automatically hidden.
She likes the dark, and in the dark she feels safe, and she forgets the gaze of other people around her, and others.
But this darkness will not last forever.
In fact, the darkest part of the night is only the moment in the middle of the night, after which the darkness will slowly be diminished by the light until the darkness is completely dispelled by the sun rises.
The night didn't have much time, and there wasn't much time left in the darkness, just like her.
There's not much time left
"Nope! There is no such thing! I'm just because Brother Lin Ya has always taken care of me, so I'm more anxious when he gets injured, it's not that it's not that what! β
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. I just see that you are very worried about Lin Ya, and you also hope that he is safe. β
"Of course, Lin Ya is our partner, how could I not want him to be safe?"
"Yes, how can you not want him to be safe, but why doesn't he really care?"
"Huh? What do you say? Which he? β
"Ah, no, I don't have a rest without you."
Two idiots
She turned her head to look at Fang Ruoxi and Mu Li, and deeply expressed her contempt for the emotional intelligence of the two of them. I'm really envious of these fools who can't see their hearts clearly.
It's really good not to see clearly, it's better to see clearly and increase pain and trouble, or not to see clearly
Thinking so, she retracted her gaze, buried her head in her knees again, and closed her eyes slightly.
Completely plunged into darkness, the first thing that appeared in front of her was the scene when she had just met Fang Ruoxi, they knew each other, looked at each other unpleasantly, quarreled, and then became opposites who no longer communicated. During this period, she met Mo Li again, a guy who was even more annoying than Fang Ruoxi.
People have mixed emotions about what they crave. On the one hand, I can't control what I want to possess, and on the other hand, I can't control my jealousy, hatred, and fear when I see others have my own desires.
She hated Fang Ruoxi, and she hated Mo Li even more. Both of them were what she longed for, and she knew very well that she would never be what she longed for, so she had only fear.
Fear is reminded, fear remembers, fear recognizes clearly that she has no hope.
She remembered what she used to be, but she didn't dare or want to think about it. As soon as she remembered the past, she became even more disgusted with the way she was now.
If everyone had a Pandora's box, then her box must contain all the memories from December 21, 1990 to December 21, 2008.
What's really scary isn't that you never had, it's that you once had and lost.
And the scariest thing is not that you once had it and have lost it, but that you lost it knowing that you would not get it again, but you can't forget the time you once had.
Four years later, she still can't forget what happened, December 21, a day that once represented joy and happiness, became her nightmare after all.
She could run away from the place where it happened, she could escape from the time it happened farther and farther away, she could escape the gossip, the meaningful ridicule, the contempt, the slander, the malice that had nothing to do with her own β but she couldn't escape her heart after all.
For four years, she was always dreaming, the same dream. In the days when time stopped in the endless room, the dream never stopped.
She couldn't remember how long she had been in the days when time had stopped, but she did remember how many times she had that dreamβseven hundred and twenty-one.
Seven hundred and twenty-one times, the same dream, even though she can now recall all the details of the dream completely clearly and accurately, but every time the dream comes, she still can't control even a little bit, she still wakes up from the dream, and then feels the coldness of her clothes soaked in cold sweat.
The coolness penetrates the bone marrow, and it is extremely cold.
The last time she had that dream was yesterday, the seventeenth hundred and twenty-first.
The dream wasn't actually terrible, nor was it a memory of that night, but a calm and fantastical dream.
In the dream she appeared in a dark wasteland, with no light, no creatures, and no sound.
She wore a long black dress, the edges of which were tattered, and the scraps of fabric were still flowing even when they were covered with dust.
She walked barefoot on the wasteland, there were small stones on the soles of her feet, some slight pain, but it made people's hearts flutter and their will was confused.
Walk slowly forward, remove the fog and smoke, and walk to the dark depths of the wasteland, where a bright color will appear in this gray-black world.
It was a birdcage with a small bird in the cage, and it turned its head to look at her quietly, smart and beautiful.
The birdcage is also very tattered, with mottled rust and blends in with the whole world, and the only one who does not fit in with it is the one in the cage.
It craves to fly.
She heard a voice in her heart.
It longs to escape the wasteland.
It longs to escape from this dark place.
So she reached out and easily opened the unlocked cage door.
She reached in, gently pulled the bird out of its cage, raised her arms slightly, and lifted the bird with her hands outstretched.
Her eyes were misty, and she had a vague smile on her face.
The bird slowly spread its wings, flapping slowly and was about to fly away from her hand
"Click!"
She withdrew her hand suddenly, ten fingers forced! Feathers are fragmented, flesh and blood are muddy! The fragile bones snapped easily under the squeeze of her hands, and the screams of pain, despair, and death resounded across the moorland sky!
That's not birdsong! But it's clearly a human language!
"I'm you!"
She was so frightened by the scream that she woke up from her dream, cold sweat soaking through her back. An arm was across her waist, which made her feel a little heavy, and she turned her head to see the face of a man, the man was called Wang Haobo, and it was not familiar to say.
She gasped lightly to calm her rapid breathing, her heart pounding violently on the left side of her chest, and the man behind her cursed what was nothing more than an unconscious dream.
She lifted the man's arm from her waist and got up, turning her head to see something unexpected.
Her eyes were slightly condensed, but she didn't make a sound, just quietly watched the man named Lin Chang flip through the female policeman's backpack, and finally pulled out a pistol from the bottom of the backpack.
The one I saw before was still in the hands of the female policeman, and she didn't let go even when she was sleeping, so the one Lin Chang took or stole was the second pistol.
At this time, the thief with an immovable nature had also completed his theft, and after putting the backpack back, he turned around with his pistol, but met her calm gaze.
Lin Chang's face was flustered, but it was only for a second, and then he walked towards her, squatted down to her side, looked directly into her eyes and said, "Hey, let's cooperate." β
She didn't actually care about the cooperation in Lin Chang's mouth, her eyes moved slightly, and she turned to another man.
The man seemed to be asleep, leaning quietly against the wall behind him, seemingly oblivious to what was happening here. But she remembered that the man never really fell asleep, and that everything that happened here must have escaped his attention.
She didn't break the matter that the man had not been asleep, but looked at Lin Chang again, who was whispering to persuade her to cooperate. Lin Chang self-righteously analyzed her character, and she realized that her disguise was so successful in achieving her goal.
Or maybe that disguise had become her nature.
"Haven't you found it yet?" Lin Chang shook the pistol in his hand, and his tone was mocking, "Every time we are in danger, only one person is in danger, and the rest are safe." β
She was attracted by Lin Chang's attention at this time, turned her head to look at him and squinted slightly, thinking back to what happened before, and was a little suspicious, "Do you have any evidence to prove it?" That's just your guess. β
"Guess? Yes, it's speculation, but I have a basis. Li Sheng said and began to analyze: "After Wen Shiming's death, those beasts didn't chase us anymore, did they?" After Li Sheng swallowed the mosquitoes and became dangerous, the mosquitoes also dispersed. If that's not enough to prove it, look at this. β
She looked at Lin Chang's outstretched wrist, and through the faint light shining into the cave from outside, she vaguely saw a faint pattern-e.
Lin Chang shook his wrist to attract her attention, "See, this sign, you should be familiar with it, it symbolizes the clue to our escape, everyone has it in their hands." β
She listened to Lin Chang's words and subconsciously looked down, and sure enough, she found the same sign on her wrist.
"When Li Sheng was in danger before, I noticed that at that time, the sign became slightly raised. But just now, after those people rescued Li Sheng, the bulge of this symbol calmed down again. Lin Chang said, looking at the people resting on the other side, and said in a low voice, "This shows that the secret of escaping here lies in the dead." β
