Chapter 760: Wise Ants
Qi Xia frowned and slowly stood up.
The situation in front of me seems a little strange.
He never remembered that the "ants" would actively tap on the windows, and they would mostly avoid the living.
And now that there is a bonfire burning in the room all the time, it doesn't look like a place where "ants" will enter, so what does this continuous slapping represent?
He looked back at Chen Junnan and Qiao Jiajin, who were sleeping, and the two seemed to be very tired, so they were not woken up by this sound of slapping, so they could only walk to the window by themselves to check the situation.
In just two steps, the pale hand tapped the window twice.
Qi Xia narrowed his gray-white eyes and looked down, this was the first time he had observed an "ant" so closely.
His appearance is no different from other ants.
The eyes were two black holes, and due to the time it had been gouged out, crumpled lines had developed around the holes.
His mouth was wide open, and it was obvious that his teeth had been pulled out, that only a small part of his tongue had been left, and that even his nose and ears had been cut off. The smooth skull had no protrusions on it, resembling a skeleton with a withered face.
He didn't have a single hair on his body, just skin clinging to his bones.
At this time, he stared at his eyes and opened his mouth, raised his head and was "looking at each other" with Qi Xia.
Qi Xia could clearly see that his face was covered in dried blood.
Who would have thought that the most horrible thing in the "End Land" could have a level of suffering that no one else could match?
Qi Xia and the "ant" in front of him looked across a glass door, he wasn't sure if the other party had a visual system, and he didn't know if the other party had found out.
The "ant" seemed to sense something, and he slowly raised his head, and his mouth kept making a sound, like an insect chirping.
Then he slowly raised his white, bony arm, this time not tapping the window, but just pressing his dusty palm against the window.
Qi Xia was quite amused to see his performance, and then also reached out his hand and approached the glass.
The hands of the two slowly joined together through the glass, and in an instant, both of them retracted their hands at the same time.
Qi Xia felt the biting cold of the palm on the other side of the glass.
The "ant" seemed to be burned, and carefully retracted his palm back to his chest.
His palms were as cold as a corpse.
"Who are you......?" Qi Xia asked softly.
The ant's eyes widened, and then tried to reach out again.
Qi Xia knew that the other party should not have a visual system, but was just acting with his senses, so even he wasn't sure what he would touch, and the sudden temperature of his palm just now should have startled him.
Seeing that the other party once again put his hand on the glass, Qi Xia felt even more curious.
Why is this "ant" different from other "ants"?
What's so special about him?
Thinking of this, Qi Xia once again stretched out his hand and was with him.
This time, the "ant" did not flinch, as if feeling the temperature of Qi Xia's palm through the glass.
The expression on his weird face changed for a while, but unfortunately he had neither eyes nor other facial features, and Qi Xia couldn't understand the meaning of his weird expression.
"Are you looking for me?" Qi Xia asked again.
The "ant" kept opening its mouth, and its hoarse voice kept making sounds like crickets rubbing its wings, but it couldn't say a complete sentence.
Seeing this, Qi Xia thought for a moment, and simply unlocked the window and opened it, and the "ant" also retracted his hand the moment he felt the window move.
His reaction was really like a bug.
Qi Xia took a step forward, stretched out his hand to hold down the windowsill, and then looked down at the "ant" in front of him.
The human-like creature was lying on the ground outside the window on the first floor, and the two of them now didn't even have the only glass partition, but the other party didn't make any other moves, not only did they not continue to stretch out their hands, but they didn't even run away.
"Can't you see me, can't you hear me?" Qi Xia asked.
All he knew was that the other person's ears had been cut off, but now it looked like the entire auditory system should have been smashed as well.
The "ant" looked up and spun around in confusion, then took a step forward.
He was silent for a long time, but tentatively stretched out his hand, and then slowly leaned forward.
Qi Xia stared carefully at the "ants" in front of him, and there was an indescribable strangeness all over his body.
If the other party is an individual, you can at least infer the other party's motives, but what is the other party now?
In just three seconds, the trembling, pale hand had already reached Qi Xia's body.
The other party was kneeling on the ground at this time, only one arm that had been broken was raised high, and the picture was indescribably weird.
Qi Xia quietly watched the path of this hand, and generally knew the other party's goal.
He wants his own eyes.
"Strange ......," Qi Xia muttered to himself, "aren't you looking for 'chips'?" Why are they aimed at my eyes? ”
Seeing that the finger was approaching his eyes like frozen dry wood, Qi Xia suddenly reached out and grabbed the other party's wrist.
The "ant" was startled by the hot thing, but couldn't withdraw his hand for a moment.
His expression changed exaggeratedly, as if analyzing the situation in front of him.
"Wait a minute......," Qi Xia said, "I seem to have fallen into a misunderstanding. ”
The "ant" panicked for a while and then suddenly used a lot of strength to retract his hand, and Qi Xia also understood something at this time.
"It's me who misunderstood...... Qi Xia slowly narrowed his eyes and whispered, "I took it for granted that you had become 'ants', so you must have lost your mind, but 'Qinglong' never said that he had taken away your sanity, only that he had destroyed your five senses, and then implanted an "idea" in his mind. ”
The "ant" stretched out his other hand and rubbed his wrist, as if feeling the hot temperature.
"So you're sober......?"
When he said this, even Qi Xia himself couldn't believe it.
But the other party is clearly able to do actions that "crazy people" do not have, they respond to external stimuli, and even have their own thoughts and judgments.
"It was a real eye-opener. I knew you were having a miserable time, but I didn't expect you to be so miserable. ”
Looking at the "ant" lying on the ground, constantly searching for Suo in his throat, Qi Xia's eyes gave birth to a trace of pity.
What kind of pathetic creature is the thing in front of you?
"The 'crazy people' here have all their senses, but they have no reason." Qi Xia said in a low voice, "But you have been deprived of all your five senses, but your thinking is sober ......?" You are much more miserable than the "madmen", is this the fate of working for the two of them? ”
