I didn't turn into stone today (end)
He knew that it was Medusa.
Madness and despair, Medusa, burst out with all her powers, and the air was filled with invisible whispers, striking at even the deepest desires and attachments hidden in the hearts of human beings.
Laurie realized the deep fear and panic, and no matter how many voices and calls were in his ears, he gritted his teeth and puffed up his strength to run forward.
His Zaya is still young, he still has family and lovers, he can't die here, he definitely can't die here!
A person with a firm heart is not easily tempted by Medusa, but there is a place in the human heart where the sun does not shine, and as long as there is, there will be infinite desires.
Medusa, who was kneeling on her knees, slowly raised her head, looked at the cold stone statue in her arms, muttered in her mouth, and the light in her eyes gradually disappeared.
"Humans, betraying me, don't dare to look at me. Only you, love me and hold me. ”
Amidst the sound of crying, laughing and wailing, Medusa picked up the stone statue in her arms and walked slowly forward step by step.
In a trance, Jin Ting seemed to see the girl in her arms open her eyes and smile at him like a flower.
"Good boy, where do you want to live?"
He asked softly.
Ding Bao thought seriously and said with a bright smile.
"Me...... Want to live in the sun, in the sea of flowers. But with you by your side, none of the above will do. ”
——
And Laurie, who was halfway there, suddenly heard a child's cry from behind him, it was Zaya, it was his child.
"No...... Fake, fake. ”
He muttered to himself, constantly reminding himself that everything in front of him was fake, that Zaya had gone home, and that Zaya was waiting for him at home.
The crying continued, becoming more and more miserable, as if torn apart by a sharp claw, fragile and desperate, as if he would die in the next second.
The sound tore at Laurie's heart, he simply closed his eyes and covered his ears, and the annoying crying finally disappeared, but the moment he closed his eyes, the face of a crying woman appeared in front of him, not Zaya, not his wife, not his mother, but ...... It's the girl he's hidden in the depths of his heart for years......
"Brother Laurie, didn't you say that you would go home and marry me, I waited in the mountains for a long, long time, but I couldn't wait for you, it was so dark and cold...... Brother Laurie, please, take me home, I want to go home, I want to go home......"
The woman's face was close at hand, the moment the tears poured out, her face became distorted and hideous, the eye sockets fell off, the bridge of her nose collapsed, and black blood spat out from her mouth full of rotten teeth, she reached out and grabbed Laurie's arm, calling and crying over and over again.
"No...... Don't, I can't marry you, I'm sorry for you......"
"Then I'm dead, a lonely person died in the mountains, the wolves ate my body, worms were all over my body, my flesh and blood turned into dirt, I couldn't feel my hands and feet, I couldn't go home, you stay with me, stay with me......"
Laurie's eyes widened in horror, shaking her head frantically, the woman in front of her opened her mouth, black mucus rushed to her face, she grabbed Laurie's arm, and her body slowly sank into the ground, taking Laurie's piece and slowly sinking.
"Come with me...... Come with me ......"
"No, don't !!"
With a roar of exclamation, the man's body gradually stiffened, his expression frightened, and finally froze forever at this moment.

There is no more Medusa in the world, but his rumors continue.
One hundred years later, the world's largest museum exhibited a conceptual statue of Medusa, and a huge stone statue was placed in the center of the museum, and the first thing anyone who came in could see the sculpture was at first sight.
The tour guide enthusiastically explained the origin of this sculpture to the people, and the whole exhibition was full of people, and everyone looked at the huge stone statue in front of them with amazement, and exclaimed continuously.
"What you see now is the world-famous sculptor Zaya. Figure's sculpture, the weeping Medusa. As we all know, Zaya. Ms. Tochin is 108 years old this year, and since the age of 80, she has been out of the public eye to start making her last work, and now this work is presented to everyone. ”
"Wow - Medusa is so big, so beautiful, she's a girl, right?"
A child innocently asked.
The tour guide smiled.
"It is rumored that Medusa is indeed a beautiful and elegant woman, but Zaya. In a personal interview, Ms. Tuzhen said that the Medusa in her mind is a handsome and elegant aristocratic son, a gloomy soul trapped in a black castle, feeding on desire, the embodiment of suspicion and darkness, a pair of purple eyes that can see through all the greedy desires of the world, a nightcrawler, and a pianist. ”
"Then why is this work called Medusa the Weeping? Why did Medusa cry? ”
"That's a good question, and the reporter asked the same question to Ms. Tochin at the time, Ms. Tochin said that Medusa is not a monster without a heart, there is a beautiful girl living deep inside him, his love is persistent and pious, and this work is what Medusa looks like after losing her lover, despair, crying, and sadness accompanied Medusa's life, and finally this elegant Medusa boy died of the loss of her love."
Another young girl asked.
"Ms. Tochin has completely constructed a virtual and full Medusa, which is completely different from the rumors, why did she create this work?"
"Ms. Tuzhen said that this work is to complete an obsession in her heart, to make up for a friend's work, in short, this lonely Medusa will be displayed in the museum for a year, everyone should take this opportunity to enjoy it."
And at this moment, far across the ocean, where the museum is located, a long-abandoned farm has finally been sold.
The buyer is a recently retired couple who have moved from the big city to this quiet and beautiful place in order to enjoy their old age.
No one has moved in to the farm for a long time, and the old couple cleaned everything inside and outside the house on the first day they moved in.
Behind the courtyard is a cluster of out-of-season sunflowers, which at the end of October have almost withered, and large stout flower stems are adorned with huge trays of sunflower seeds.
The old woman sighed, thinking to herself that it would take a lot of effort to pull out all the sunflowers and plant them again.
Thinking so, there was a shout from her husband behind her.
"Come and see what I've found."
The old lady walked slowly to the hut by the sea of flowers, cobwebs were growing under the dilapidated eaves, and when she walked in, she saw that the old man was wiping something with a handkerchief.
"Come and see, there's a pair of sculptures here, and it looks like real people, which is really strange."
The old lady looked up.
It was a pair of men and women embracing each other, the young and beautiful girl was gently held in her arms, and the slender and tall curly-haired young man hugged the girl in his arms, looking at her with his eyes down, quiet and peaceful.
"Old woman, did the original owner put this here?"
"Then why don't you take it with you?"
"What now?"
The old couple was religious, and when they saw such a sculpture of a man and woman in love, they couldn't bear it, so they continued to put them in the wooden house.
"Put it here."
"I also found a lot of sunflower seeds in the house, let's plant this this year, and we will buy other seeds if we save it."
The old lady acquiesced, and in the early spring of the next year, they buried the sealed flower seeds.
In July of the following year, there was a sea of golden flowers outside the farm, and the angry flower disks were born to the sun, like the sun falling on the earth, brilliant and intense.
