The fat man came to his senses when it was gray outside.

Even in the same place and in the same place, the daytime always feels much more peaceful and tranquil than the invisible pressure and unknown fear released by the long night.

Human beings are inherently afraid of the unknown, and when you open your eyes, you can see everything in your sight, and you won't be too afraid, because at this time you will have a mental expectation of what is about to happen.

In the dark night, people's eyesight is already limited, if there is no fire, the sensory mechanism is deprived, you don't know what kind of things will appear around you, so you will continue to imagine, this uncontrollable imagination will increase your fear, so it is instinctive to be afraid of the dark.

The fat man's mixed bones were so sore that he seemed to have been run over by a grinding disc, and he screamed "ouch" to get up.

He looked left and right at the tent he was in, and was stunned for a while before he reacted, and hurriedly asked Wu Xidao: "Innocent, how are you?" It's not hurt, what the hell is that thing, like a snake and like a fish, it's so fierce, the fat man and I are all over, but the special mother didn't even carry it for a round. ”

Mabonim's tail knocked him out, and he didn't know what was going on.

Wu Xie handed him the dried clothes and compressed biscuits, and briefly talked about what happened later, "I have nothing to do, it's just that I soaked in ice water for a while, and the two of you were seriously injured, and Muyu has no signs of waking up until now." ”

The fat man looked at Zhang Qixun who was lying in a sleeping bag on the side, stared at the lines on his right face and was silent for a while, and asked, "Are you sure it's him?" ”

Hearing the fat man's words, Wu Xie's expression had an indescribable sadness, he sighed, stepped forward and sat aside, stretched out his hand to uncover the blanket on Zhang Qixun's body, and said in a low voice: "See for yourself, I don't know how to tell you." ”

"How?"

The fat man felt that his reaction was a little strange, so he turned on his flashlight and approached, and at this glance, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what his eyes saw.

"This, this, this ......," he pointed to the countless interlaced scars on Zhang Qixun's chest, and was so shocked that he forgot to say anything.

Wu Xie seemed to have something in his throat, and took a difficult breath before he spoke, "These scars are real, and he didn't deliberately fake them to confuse the public." ”

When the fat man heard this, he hurriedly went to rub those scars, but found that he really couldn't rub them off, and his face became very ugly.

He eagerly asked: "What about the tattoos, what is the situation with these tattoos, how can I not see the unicorn on his body!" ”

On Zhang Qixun's left chest, the place where the unicorn tattoo would have appeared has turned into a more strange and complex red pattern at this moment.

These lines spread from the tattoo on the right side of the chest, intertwined with the horrific scars, and densely covered the entire chest, even on both arms.

The fat man knew Muyu, and with his obsessive-compulsive nature, he was simply not willing to leave so many ugly crawling scars on his body.

And they all know that the wooden fish has a kind of perverted healing ability, no matter how deep the wound is, it will not leave this old scar that has been around for a while.

And the tattoo of the Zhang family's logo?

So big unicorn, why can't you see it?

The temperature on the wooden fish is still a little burned at this time, and if the unicorn tattoo is still there, it is impossible not to be burned.

"Could it be that there was an accident in Zhangjia Gulou, and there may have been some kind of change in Muyu that we can't imagine." The fat man guessed.

"I don't rule it out." Wu Xie nodded and said, "I pondered all night, and I felt that either the things under the ancient building caused the changes in Muyu's body, or it was related to the bronze door here. ”

"Do you remember that when the bronze gate of Changbai Mountain was opened, the blood on the wooden fish was like something attracted from the pores and kept coming out, and it couldn't be stopped."

The fat man tucked the blanket back, "You mean to say that the reason for the abnormality of the tattoo on Muyu's body is most likely because he had entered the bronze door here a year ago?" ”

Wu Xie nodded, "I can't think of any other more reasonable explanation. ”

When he saw these scars last night, Wu Xie was no less shocked than a fat man, and he couldn't imagine what Muyu had experienced in the more than a year of separation, leaving so many indelible scars on his body.

Most of these scars are knife wounds, and there are many bullet abrasions, large and small, which look particularly hideous and terrifying against the white skin.

There was also a gun scar with a bottle cap very close to his neck, just looking at the location of the scar, Wu Xie could imagine how dangerous the situation was at that time, this shot directly penetrated his neck, and almost hit the arteries.

Wounds like these abound on Zhang Qixun's body, and these are all proofs that he has brushed shoulders with death countless times.

"Since last night, only the red tattoo on the right side of his body has been surging, and as his body temperature gets higher and higher, it will soon spread to the left side, as if he is alive." Wu Xie Dao.

"But I remember that in the past, the red tattoo on the wooden fish was only on the right side."

The fat man muttered, and had a whim, "Hey naive, do you still remember, when we were in the submarine tomb, the wooden fish was controlled by something on his body, and at that time, two kinds of tattoos on his body came out to fight, but the unicorn tattoo won later, and the other tattoo faded down, this time the unicorn tattoo is gone, could it be that this one has not been and eaten by another tattoo." ”

Wu Xie shook his head, "No, the unicorn tattoo on the wooden fish is pierced on the skin with a special plant dye mixed with something special, it doesn't grow on its own, and it's not a white blood cell devouring pathogen, you can eat it if you eat it." ”

"Then what do you say is going on, Hu made up an explanation and explained, the reason for the bronze door is too mysterious, and the little brother has also entered the bronze gate, all of them are the Zhang family, why haven't the tattoos on his body disappeared." The fat man put his clothes on his body and said, "Otherwise, there will be only one reason." ”

"Impossible!" Wu Xie denied it without hesitation, "My feeling can't go wrong, he is Muyu." ”

The fat man's coat-wearing hand paused, and he hesitated to speak, "Naive, I feel that since you entered the snowy mountain, your state has begun to be a little wrong, and you have been deliberately escaping reality on this issue." You actually know very well in your heart, right, Muyu is not the only one in this world who has this kind of fire tattoo, but also other people in Kangballo, and that Dan also has a long left finger, these characteristics are not unique. ”

Bai Ci was the one chosen to take over the task, and it was not surprising that he had such a large tattoo on his body.

What made the fat man really doubt his previous judgment was because of the disappearance of the unicorn tattoo, and in this sudden crisis situation, Bai Ci had no chance to cover up the tattoo on his body at all.

So most likely, Bai Ci really ...... It's not a wooden fish.

The fat man raised his hand and patted Wu Xie on the shoulder, and said seriously: "I know that you really want to find Muyu, and I want to too, but we can't be emotional in this matter, haven't you noticed it, from the moment you saw Bai Ci at the beginning, you have been looking at him with Muyu's filter." ”

"You have subconsciously regarded him as a wooden fish, and all his actions and reactions to your actions will be spontaneously interpreted as the habitual behavior of the former wooden fish under the cover of that filter."

"You have obviously seen a lot of contradictions with the wooden fish on him, but you still keep catching those small similarities, even if the evidence is in front of you, you will still subconsciously ignore these unreasonable details, because you hope that he is the wooden fish in your heart."

"From the last time Siguniang Mountain made a mistake in the password, to the failure to rescue Muyu at the bottom of the water at the exit, and not finding his body, you blame yourself for all these mistakes. Do you always think that if you read the password more carefully at that time, if you heard the meaning of the wooden fish when you passed the bell array, the end of the wooden fish would not be death, right? ”

"You have trapped the death of the wooden fish in your heart, it has become a stubborn knot, this knot firmly ties you in place, whenever you encounter something related to the wooden fish, you will wrap yourself up, you are refusing to believe the fact that the wooden fish is dead with a negative attitude."

"Have you fantasized countless times that if you could do it all over again, you would definitely prevent the wooden fish from returning to that bell array? Or do you want to follow him and rescue Panzi with him? ”

Wu Xie looked at the fat man and opened his mouth to refute something, but found that he couldn't refute a word.

There are some emotions that are hidden deeply, even he is not aware of it, but they are still seen by the fat man.

The fat man really knows Wu Xie too well, he always hopes that everyone around him is good, and always tries to make everything have no regrets at the end, but this world is the coexistence of hope in the sun and despair in the dust.

"Innocent, you are hating yourself, you said that Muyu once told you in a dream, 'Escape is the stupidest and worst solution, and the pain can only be emanated', you honestly put these in your heart, and in the end it gets more and more full, more and more painful, and if you continue like this, you will fall into the devil and be naïve."

All the veils covering self-deception were lifted, Wu Xie's eyelids kept trembling, and the fat man's words were like the last straw on a camel's body, he finally couldn't hold on, and covered his eyes with some collapse.

The fat man sighed heavily, his eyes were a little sour, and he felt uncomfortable when he said these words, but Wu Xie's obsession with "Muyu is still alive" was too deep, even more than the importance of his own safety.

Wu Xie didn't realize how bad his complexion was, his face was as white as if he had been sucked blood, and the wound on his forehead was directly sunken into a deep pit, and even faintly oozing blood, and he didn't pay attention to it when it was blistered and swollen like that.

If the temperature hadn't been too low now, such a deep wound would have been purulent and infected.

The fat man took the medicine bag that was put aside, took out the things used for disinfection and bandaging, and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't patronize and cry, wrap the opening on your head first, if the wound on your face is not dealt with in time, there will be a scar in the future when you cry." ”

"Didn't cry." Wu Xie rubbed his eyes, pursed his lips and smiled reluctantly, "I just have a little bit of a ...... in my heart It's uncomfortable, it's empty, hey, I can't describe it to you. ”

said and pretended to be angry and said: "You person, even if your eyes are poisonous, your mouth is not worry-free, why do you say anything, I feel that I really don't have any little secrets in front of you, no, no, this is too unfair, you also quickly shake off one or two secrets to balance my heart." ”

"Want to know the fat man's little secret?" The fat man shook his eyebrows, "I won't tell you, you can guess for yourself." ”

Wu Xie grinded his teeth and waved his fist at him, and the fat man took out a scissor from the good to let him defeat himself, Wu Xie was satisfied, and laughed twice.

The fat man beckoned him to lower his head a little and treat the wound for him, "If you knock so deeply, it is estimated that there will be a scar, but fortunately, the broken hair can cover a little, and it will not be obvious to leave a bangs when the time comes, otherwise you will have to do surgery to wipe it." ”

"The master's handsome face can't be ruined, I have to consult Xiaohua about the method of removing scars, he has a skin expert under his hand, and he is a thief." Wu Xie also took the opportunity to change the topic a little more relaxed, "Wait for the fog to completely disperse after a while, then blow the whistle and meet Zhang Haixing and the two of them, count the remaining materials, and then go to the lama temple to talk about the rest of the matter." ”

The two lowered their voices and chatted about the follow-up, neither of them noticed that Zhang Qixun, who was lying behind him, opened his eyes silently, a touch of complicated emotions crossed his eyes, and immediately closed his eyelids the moment Wu Xie glanced over.

When the fat man started to rub his scars, Zhang Qixun had actually woken up, and he listened to all the conversations between the two.

In fact, he had long sensed that Wu Xie's state was very wrong, and since he entered the Snow Mountain, his entire aura was suppressed.

Zhang Qixun hopes that he can be strong, but he also doesn't want to see him close his heart and shatter his past little by little.

But with his current status, he is not qualified to do anything, and fortunately, there is a fat man on the side who can always watch and explain.

Listening to the whispers of the two, Zhang Qixun also began to think about the problems that arose during this operation.

Why did Malpenim target the fat man almost exclusively when attacking?

When Zhang Qixun was in Kangbalo, he had hunted with Dan and the others, fed the Mabonim in this lake, and also went into the heads of beasts to follow them to their habitats.

Most of the Mapenim is found in an underground lake near a lava pool at the bottom of the mountain, which is very deep from the surface. (End of chapter)
