Synopsis: Fish Girl 1: I killed millions of fish at the fish market
Six Mermaid beasts
Jiang He let out a deformed scream in his throat, because he was so frightened, he forgot to let go of his hand, but instead he dragged the intestine deadly, only to hear the muffled sound of human tissue tearing, and half of the woman's womb and intestines were pulled out by him, and he dragged such a pile of human tissue like this, and the stuffy gourd rolled down from the stone.
Everyone was frightened by such a change.
I and Mo Shen immediately back to back, I took out a fish-killing knife and posed defensively in front of my chest.
Old Pan carefully moved over, also holding a sapper shovel in his hand.
All around could be heard the sound of rain on the leaves, the corpse swayed even more violently because of the pull just now, the branches of the trees made a muffled cracking sound, and the chains on the corpses also collided with each other, which made people's hearts chill.
The stagnant and monotonous silence is nothing out of the ordinary.
I breathed a little relief and looked at the river that had fallen into the muddy ditch.
"River, are you still alive?" Jiang Zhou roared, strode over, and fished out the half-dead river from the mud, his whole body covered with mud, like a clay man, spitting out the rain and leaves in his mouth.
On the ground, there was carrion that had just been pulled out by him.
Accidentally glancing at it, Jiang He couldn't help but vomit loudly.
I patted him on the shoulder, funny and angry: "It's okay you, why are you pulling people?" ”
Jiang He cried and mourned: "Just now you swore so that it was all an illusion, I thought this was also fake, who thought it was a dry corpse... Vomit..."
He said it and spat it out in a big mouth, with a snotty face and tears.
This place is really evil.
I looked up at the woman on the tree, although I didn't know the clothing of ethnic minority women, I recognized that the Han woman was wearing a cheongsam, if it was a long time ago, and it was a place with abundant rain, the clothes should have decayed a long time ago, how could it be preserved so completely?
Mo Shen obviously thought of this as well, and he looked around and said in a low voice:
"I think we're almost at the point where they're afraid of being known to outsiders."
I said, "Are you saying that these women who were hanged were all executed by breaking into the forbidden land, and they deliberately hung up to scare outsiders?" ”
Mo Shen nodded, "Over the years, the Mo family has never given up going into the mountains, but groups of people are folded in the mountains, and no one knows what they have encountered, maybe because of you this time, we can get closer and closer to the core." ”
When he said this, he was praising me.
My old face was red, and I wanted to be reserved to show modesty, but my mouth was: "That is nature, this time to be able to get out alive, you Mo family owe me great kindness." ”
After saying that, he glanced at him, and it was also good to use this boy to repay the favor.
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt some very subtle noise in the air, like the clicking sound of the tongue bouncing between the upper and lower jaws, coming from the depths of the dense forest, driving a slight air flow to rotate.
"Did you hear anything?" I looked around nervously.
The crowd held their breath and listened, their hearing was not as sharp as mine, and they did not feel this abnormality.
Mo Shen sniffed hard: "I didn't hear anything, but there was a fishy smell like a dead fish——"
Between the lightning stones and fires, a familiar sense of danger struck, and I shouted, "Be careful on your head!" ”
The words did not fall, a series of clicks were heard in mid-air, and a thin figure flew from the woods like a catapult, straight to the top of Old Pan's head, and Old Pan was reminded by me, and with preparation, smashed the sapper shovel in his hand.
The figure was slashed and twisted, rolling to the ground and struggling, the clicking sound in his mouth was even more intense.
This thing is simply not human, although the limbs of the body are no different from those of people, but it is extremely thin, the body is covered with fish scales, and the places that are not covered by fish scales are bleak and pale, sticky, and everywhere they go, they are smelly liquids, like monsters combined with people and fish.
I could hear it incessantly, and I felt bad in my heart.
"Oops, it might be calling a companion!"
I stepped forward, and without hesitation, the dagger was inserted between its necks, and it felt my approach, and suddenly looked up, and its eyes were facing each other, and the eyeballs bulged out like the eyes of a dead fish, and the fangs were forested, and the sharp teeth were soaked with blood, and the dripping was salivating.
"Fuck!" I let out a loud roar in fright, my hand shook, and it was so bad that it was stinging, and the thing seemed to feel no pain, rolled on the ground, and quickly flipped up again, with a dagger in its chest, and looked at me coldly, and pounced on it again.
Almost at the same time, the crossbow in Mo Shen's hand shot out, hitting it in the head.
The mermaid beast slammed to the ground, still struggling to pounce on me and bite me.
The river rushed up, grabbed a boulder, and shouted, "Smash it!" ”
The stone fell several times, and the entire head of the mermaid beast was flattened, and the slimy liquid sprayed the river head by body.
Seeing that it was no longer struggling, Jiang He threw away the stone in fear, with a crying voice: "I, I killed people!" ”
I walked over and drew my dagger and pulled away from the river: "This thing is not a human being, you killed it to protect me." ”
The corpse of the mermaid beast lay motionless, emitting a strong fishy smell.
Mo Shen took out all the arrows in his backpack and loaded them, the one in his hand was a semi-automatic crossbow, which could be filled with multiple arrows at the same time, and he could fire multiple arrows in a row just by pulling the string.
"Everybody have their weapons ready, get out of here, and their companions may come right away!"
While Mo Shen was talking, four or five mermaid beasts had already jumped over the woods, flying through the woods like monkeys, extremely fast, in no particular order, and swooping over our heads.
I yelled, "Run! ”
As soon as the words fell, the black shadow had already pounced in front of me, and I didn't want to think about it, and a kick flew over.
The monster rolled over on the ground, and without the slightest hesitation, pounced on me again.
The arrow in Mo Shen's hand accurately shot through its head.
The forest was suddenly chaotic, and everyone was running and fighting, and for a while the rattling sound in the mouth of the monster, the roar of the rivers and rivers of Jiangzhou, and the roar of Old Pan continued continuously.
I was much faster than everyone else, because I was pulling Lao Pan and they ran forward, and they were attacked by monsters, it was difficult to show my skills for a while, in the chaos, Mo Shen's arrows were raised and lowered several times, and he was afraid of hitting his own people.
Mo Shen dodged the monster and rushed over to me and said, "Who is faster than you are compared to these things?" ”
I immediately understood what he meant, dropped Old Pan, and flew up the tree.
These mermaids attack us and win in a swift and swift manner.
Mo Shen's speed is not good, but the arrow method is accurate, and it can only be played out by getting rid of the entanglement of the monster.
I yelled at the monster, "Here, come and catch me!" ”
The humanoid beast heard the sound, and sure enough, I was attracted to it, and they jumped on the branches and chased after me.
I gritted my teeth, grabbed a chain, and wandered back and forth among the vines. The woman hanging from the chains also wandered with me in the tree, and I tried not to pay attention to her hollow and rotten face.
While shooting arrows, Mo Shen rushed into the rivers of Jiangzhou and shouted, "You come to mend the sword!" ”
Jiang Zhou Jiang he and Lao Pan also reacted, and immediately gathered together and raised the weapons in their hands.
I deliberately slowed down and swung the swing within the range that was most convenient for Mo Shen to shoot, the mermaid beast obviously had no brains, and when he saw me, one by one, the former servants followed, flew over, and were shot down by Mo Shen's arrow.
As soon as they fell to the ground, Lao Pan and the Jiang brothers greeted them with knives and stones.
Several times, the arrow body rubbed against my body.
Mo Shen shouted at me, "Don't be afraid, I will keep you safe." ”
His voice was not loud, but he didn't know why, it was inexplicably convincing.
After several times, the number of mermaid beasts lying on the ground increased, and Lao Pan and the river cooperated more and more tacitly, and the momentum followed, slashing and killing the injured monster, very fierce
The few remaining mermaids and beasts saw the situation, probably timid, looked back a few times, turned around and fled.
At this time, the sky was also dark, and Old Pan turned on the flashlight and looked at me.
I jumped down from the tree, Mo Shen hurriedly greeted him, his body was full of black blood stains, a smelly dry fish smell, thinking that he said that I had a peculiar smell on my body, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You're like a stinky fish."
When the crowd smelled themselves, they were also very smelly, and they couldn't help but laugh.
In the laughter, there is a kind of happiness for the rest of the life.
Mo Shen also grinned, revealing his small tiger teeth, and handed me the kettle, I was just about to pick it up, suddenly changed my gesture, grabbed the blood-stained dagger and jumped up, and without hesitation, stabbed at Mo Shen fiercely!
Old Pan was shocked with Jiang Zhou and Jiang He, and his mouth screamed, but there was no time to stop it.
Time seems to have a momentary pause.
There was silence.
Mo Shen lay on the ground, his eyes looking at me silently, without waves.
Seven discoveries
The dagger plunged deep into the brow of a mermaid beast, and the dark blood stains fell down its pale scalp, and I pulled out the dagger with a weak hand, and the mermaid beast's body collapsed softly.
Just now, behind Mo Shen, in the shadows of the woods, a humanoid shadow quietly approached him.
At the moment it pounced, I struck.
Up to this moment, my heart was pounding.
Just a little bit, it was Mo Shen who had just died.
But the young boy looked at me calmly and smiled.
"Cooperate with tacit understanding." He said.
As the night fell, the cool air suddenly increased, and Mo Shen proposed to find a cave to rest.
Guangxi is mostly karst landforms, and caves can be seen everywhere. It is the rainy season, the low terrain inside the cave has been flooded, the cave is full of stalactite, some stone pillars and underwater ground connection, some hanging in mid-air, some above the head like upside down lotus flowers.
We found a platform on the high side of the ground, lit the fire, and suddenly relaxed.
A few men didn't shy away from me very much, and directly took off their clothes and hung them aside to dry.
Jiang He pulled Mo Shen aside: "Little Brother Mo, you take off your clothes and bake it." ”
I was expectant: "Yes, yes, yes." ”
Mo Shen glanced at me, lifted his feet and walked out, "I'll go find some firewood——""
Old Pan smirked and walked over to Help JiangZhou, and everyone wiped alcohol and bandaged the wounds.
When I first fought with the mermaid beast, I didn't think about it, and now I found all kinds of scratches and rubbing wounds on my body, and several people hung up the color, and they all felt ridiculous when they looked at each other, but because they had just been born and died together, they all felt extremely kind.
Mo Shen hugged the branch in and out, and I thought of the scene when he was injured that day and squirted blood, and it seemed that this time he was not injured.
Seeing me coming over, Jiang Zhou and Jiang He called me very affectionately: "Miss Ayu, drink some ginger tea to warm up." ”
Old Pan hung a small aluminum pot on the fire, which was steaming ginger tea, and the crowd sat by the fire, and for a moment there was a bit of a feeling that the same people had fallen into the world.
I pestle down the river and teased him:
"You are not a member of the Mo family, nor do you have any terminal illness, how dare you follow him to sell your life?" Gave a lot of money, right? ”
Jiang He was red in the ears when I saw it, and he rubbed his hands and smiled, "We came voluntarily." It's not about money. ”
Yes, I secretly glanced at Mo Shen, who was changing clothes in the cave.
He was tall and thin, and the campfire cast his shadow on the rock wall, watching him pull the close-fitting T off the top of his head, revealing a shoulder-width waist. Suddenly, I thought of the picture of being frightened by the shadow of the female corpse and falling into his arms during the day, and I couldn't help but feel hot in my face.
Old Pan saw me staring at Mo Shen's shadow in a daze and couldn't help but smile.
Probably because of my combat performance this time, he had a friendly attitude and even took the initiative to chat with me.
"Ah Shen is good, right?" This kid recruits girls from an early age to like. ”
Well, what do you mean, is my eyes so obvious?
"You don't know Ah Shen this child, this trip to the Moore Stone Forest, he didn't want to bring us here, everyone knows that this trip will not be an easy task, so many years no one has come out of the forest alive."
However, my life was given by the Mo family.
When I was in my twenties, I was doing long-distance work, and once, when I drove the car into the ravine at night, the person fainted, and it was Ah Shen's mother who passed by, took me to the hospital, and paid all the medical expenses for me, if it were not for her, I would have died in that ravine.
After the people were well, the job was lost, and they were facing a large amount of compensation for the loss of goods, Ah Shen's mother asked, or you stay in the museum as a housekeeper, in fact, I know that she is helping me, I am such a wasted person who will want -"
No wonder Old Pan's legs and feet were not very flexible, it turned out that he had been injured.
Mo Shen changed his clothes and came over and sat down next to Old Pan:
"Uncle Pan, I was brought up by you, and my mother will be grateful to you when she is alive."
Old Pan quietly wiped his eyes by coughing loudly, and smiled and pointed to Jiangzhou and Jianghe.
"They are also orphans raised by the Mo family, they grew up with Ah Shen, like brothers, Ah Shen has something to do, can they ignore it?"
Jiang He rushed, "Little Mo Ge's business is our business." ”
"Before my brother and I were ten years old, we were living a life of begging and kidnapping on the street, and once, I robbed Little MoGo of his breakfast money, and he actually took the money to wait for me every day, and then took me and my brother home, ate and lived together, and asked me if I would like to be his brother?
At first, I wondered if this man was stupid enough to dare to take us back, simply stole something from my brother and ran away, only to be caught by the police, or Little Mo Ge took Old Pan to pick us up. After that, we never separated again. ”
Jiang Zhou was not good at words, but nodded calmly when Jiang He spoke.
Unexpectedly, the three of them had such a relationship with Mo Shen.
Mo Shen smiled and added some firewood to the fire from time to time, and the fire jumped in his eyes, shining like stars.
It seems that Mo Shen has the problem of loving to give people money at every turn, but he has had it since he was a child.
The river got up and walked toward the depths of the cave, about to drink tea to put some water.
Old Pan shouted, "Don't go far, no one will see you pee!" ”
Jiang He was a young man in the end, and because I was next to him, he couldn't hang on his face and replied with shame: "Uncle Pan, you are an old disrespect-"
The second half of the sentence was swallowed, and there was no sound.
Mo Shen and I turned our heads almost in unison and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
I saw that Jiang He was standing on his side in front of a rock wall in a daze, his face full of shock.
Everyone gathered around, and Uncle Pan swept the flashlight over and immediately inhaled a cool breath.
How to describe it, the highest point of the cave is nearly ten meters, and the entire rock wall is full of carved paintings.
It's like a slaughter scene, killing a woman.
Countless tall women who were bound were stabbed to death by sharp arrows and spears, some hanging from trees, and some burned alive. The figure is cleverly fused with the raised stones, which is very realistic, like a human cultivation field.
Once the facial features of the human body are concave and convex, the expression seems to be particularly vivid.
I looked at the wall, as if I could hear the cries of pain of the women when they were killed and injured, and a huge wave of mourning surged into my heart.
Mo Shen noticed my abnormality and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Looking back, when I touched my face, I was in tears, and I hurriedly wiped it.
"I don't know why, when I saw these paintings, I suddenly felt a lot of pain in my heart, as if I was one of them..."
Jiang He comforted me: "How can Sister Ayu be the people here, they all use spears and stones as weapons, and they don't know that it was thousands of years ago..."
Suddenly, he stopped talking.
Because the women on the stone wall were mostly tall, with rounded skulls, high noses and deep eyes.
Very similar to me.
Originally, I thought I was born in Buya Village, but now it seems that my identity is becoming more and more confusing.
Old Pan: "Don't you think this painting is a little strange?" ”
He frowned and thought, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "There are only dead people in this painting, not a single one who kills people, and the war scenes we have seen in the past will draw the victorious side, but this is not." ”
Yes, if it is to record history, why are there no slaughterers, only those who are slaughtered?
"You see this?" Mo Shen pointed to the top of the portrait.
Everyone looked up, only to see that at the top of the slaughterhouse, there was a shape like a cloud covering the sky, and it turned out to be a creature combined with a fish and a snake, and the reason why it said so was because its body resembled a snake, and its head was clearly like a fish.
At first, because everyone was attracted to the local portrait, they didn't notice this.
"Have you ever heard of a creature called a fish woman?" Mo Shen asked.
I looked at the River Brothers with a blank look on their faces.
Although these two guys have no memory, they are not like reading material, and their knowledge reserves are similar to mine.
Seeing that we shook our heads, Mo Shen did not sell Guanzi anymore and explained to us:
"The fish woman is an image in ancient Chinese mythology, and it is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, 'There are fish that are partially dry, and the name is fish woman.'" Death is recovery. It is said that this fish woman has the effect of transforming life and reviving the soul. The mural of the fish woman once appeared in the mural of the tomb of king Liang of Yongcheng, which is very similar to this painting, that is, the body of a fish-headed snake. ”
Jiang Zhou was curious: "Then if anyone can catch such a fish, wouldn't he be immortal?" ”
Old Pan smiled: "Ah Shen said that it is a myth, it must be a fake." ”
Even if it is not false, since the ancient emperors will not pursue immortality, there really is such a creature, I am afraid that it has long been extinct.
Mo Shen seemed to see our thoughts, and smiled: "Who knows whether it is true or not, it is said that qin shi huang's mausoleum also has a sculpture of a fish woman in it, at least it shows that it is related to longevity." ”
I nodded, carefully examined the entire mural, and suddenly found that the fish woman's body still had a few lines of writing.
The mouth involuntarily said, "This is the dead and the fish and snake." Although it is not a fierce thing, it can eat people if it is hungry for a long time; but it is also by people, and it is the greatest harm. When the mermaid is combined, it is a living thing, but if it is scattered, it will all return to the dead qi. ”
"Sister Ayu, what is this talking about?"
Jiang He's eyesight is not as good as mine, and the word is also vague, and I see that I read it very smoothly, so I don't admire it.
"Probably that is to say, this kind of thing is a combination of dead people and fish and snakes, it is not aggressive in itself, if it is manipulated by people, it is quite terrible, if you do not separate people and fish, the fish woman is a living creature, but if it is broken up, both will return to the state of death." 」 I explain.
Mo Shen took out a telescope from his bag and pointed it at the picture of the fish woman, and sure enough, he found a few lines.
However, that font is not a common Chinese character, no, it should be said that it does not belong to any kind of ancient Chinese characters.
"What kind of text is this, and how do you recognize it?" Mo Shen was curious.
"Of course I know, I carved it."
A few strange glances looked at me like a monster.
I shivered, as if I had just woken up from a dream, and then fixed my eyes on it, and the intricate and twisted patterns on the fish's body, like winding flowers and vines, seemed to be words and non-words, and the depiction was very sloppy, as if it was left in a hurry.
And they are less than six or seven meters from the ground, and there is nothing to climb around them.
But I clearly remember the words I just said.
- This is what I carved.
How could it have been me, when had I been to this cave and knew so much about this fish woman?
A koko sound of teeth sounded, but it came from my mouth.
Mo Shen wrapped his arms around my shoulders and sat me half against the wall.
Neither Old Pan nor the Jiang brothers spoke, but the look in my eyes was a little more strange.
First I lived for hundreds of years, and now I found a sculpture similar to my own face on the wall, and these strange words, and many clues were like a mess mixed together, and there was nowhere to start.
An idea popped into my head, very absurd but highly probable: "You say, is it possible that I am one of those mermaid beasts?" ”
Mo Shen was very calm: "What do you say?" ”
"Suppose, I mean, there was once a kind of ancient creature here, tall, sharp in five senses, and even had its own writing system, and then there was infighting, a large number of women were slaughtered, and a very small number of people survived, who have been living in this dense forest unknown to outsiders, and gradually degenerated into the appearance of half-man and half-fish, feeding on other creatures, and I am their descendant..."
"Wrong. If it is a civil war, the surviving side must be stronger, how can it be degraded. I think the legend of this fish woman is very similar to the flower goddess in Buya Village. ”
Mo Shen looked around at the wall painting: "In the story of the flower goddess, it is the woman who sends the flower soul to the belly of the praying son, and it will give birth to new life." And the record of the fish woman is also to let the soul enter the body and revive life, don't you think there is a similarity in this? ”
I calmed down and thought carefully about his words.
"This suggests that they may be describing the same organism, but in different ways." To know that all myths and legends have roots, whether it is the flower goddess or the legend of the fish woman, they are essentially about a phenomenon of asexual reproduction, and this breeding method is very common in the biological world. ”
"Maybe mermaid creatures did exist, and they may even have been the origin of a matrilineal clan, which is female only." But the real reason for their degeneration and demise is more like being slaughtered by foreign nations. ”
Jiang He couldn't help but interject: "I know, I saw the documentary on the origin of mankind, it was said that after our ancestor Homo sapiens landed in Australia, he killed the large creatures over and over again, and finally only the kangaroo family was left alive." ”
Mo Shen nodded, "That's right, those extinct species often exist in the form of myths, but the victors are glorifying their own behavior." Whether it is "Norse Mythology" or "Greco-Roman Mythology", you can see the shadow of war and enslavement of foreign peoples, and behind the myth is the blood and tears and weeping of countless losers. ”
As soon as he said this, a picture in my mind gradually became clear.
He simply took out a dagger and slashed vertically on the ground, and for a moment the stone chips flew everywhere.
I drew a fish-headed snake body, pointed at the tip of the dagger, and said, "We'll call this a mermaid beast." ”
A cross and a human head were drawn next to it: "This is the human being." ”
The diagram is very concise, and the river has added several human heads to the side: "Humans are strong, slaughtering mermaids and beasts." ”
I nodded, drew a small circle again, and surrounded the mermaid beast: "The fish woman or flower goddess recorded in the human classics is evidence of the existence of the mermaid beast, but it deliberately conceals the fact that the mermaid beast is very similar to the human female appearance." ”
Old Pan rushed to answer: "I know, the mermaid beasts have not been completely exterminated by humans, a small number of survivors have hidden in the Moore Stone Forest, and those women who were hanged may be the corpses left by them attacking humans, in order to avenge the hatred of the exterminations." ”
Jiang Zhou pointed at me: "That Miss Fish, is it the descendant of the Mermaid Beast?" ”
Mo Shen shook his head and combined the fish woman's figure with the human figure: "Those mermaid beasts that attack us have a very low IQ, and they don't look like species that have ever had writing at all, which means that the long-term seclusion in the mountains and forests has degraded them, but the fish look no different from us, and can't be their offspring, unless-"
I guessed eight or nine points in my mind, and stood up: "Unless I am a child born of a mermaid beast and a human being, with a human appearance and a long life of a fish woman."
Eight Blood Flower Vines
"This is all guessed by Little Mo Ge, how can it be so outrageous, is it Sister Ayu?"
I turned my head to look at him, and Jiang He grinned, looking like he had no heart and no lungs, but I knew in my heart that he just wanted to comfort me and say that he didn't believe this at all.
This child is so kind.
The others echoed his words: "That is, if you tell a story, how can you take it seriously?" ”
Mo Shen patted me on the shoulder: "Yes, they are all blind guesses, when you enter the Moore Stone Forest, you may know, everyone is tired all day, first have a good rest." ”
Everyone took out their sleeping bags from their backpacks and spread them around the campfire, and Mo Shen went to the mouth of the cave to sprinkle the potion around the cave to repel snake insects, and everything was ready, so they each chose their favorite position to lie down.
As long as I can remember, I like to sleep with my back against a wall so that I feel safe.
At this moment, leaning against the stone wall of the cave, listening to the sound of water ticking, tossing and turning without any drowsiness. The conversation that had just been made in front of the mural echoed in my mind from time to time, and the truth of the matter seemed to be close at hand, but it was separated by a layer of tulle, hazy, and could not be seen to be true.
Man is indeed a creature that likes to ask for trouble.
Life after losing my memory is actually like being born again, there is nothing wrong with it, why should I go after my origin.
I remember once buying goods in Dongcheng Street, I met an old fortune teller, staring at me hard, and my two eyes were covered with white stubble, like the eyes of a dead fish.
He "stared" at me with those unencumbered eyes and said to himself:
"How is this girl's life style so strange, I can't see through it, obviously one body, but there are two kinds of life styles..."
I was only talking nonsense, hurrying to leave, but the old man accurately caught my hand, the thin fingers climbed on my wrist, the face suddenly changed, shouted: "The fish girl is in this world, she is going to be robbed, she is going to be robbed..."
I was startled by his appearance, but the old man stumbled and left on his own, as if he were running away.
I thought he was talking about the fish girl because of the fishy smell left by the killing of fish on my body.
Maybe I'm killing too much?
Since that day, I have been amplifying the curse of sorrow in the shop, as if it were to alleviate the sins created by killing.
That being said, I didn't pay much attention to it.
People are invincible, that is, they can sleep soundly when they are surrounded by a circle of ghosts at the head of the bed and play mahjong, where there are so many good and evil retribution. I thought that was my law of survival.
But today, when I saw the painting on the wall, I was shocked.
What if I were the one who was slaughtered unarmed? Can I still be insensitive?
Just because it was not his own kind who died, he turned a blind eye to this daily massacre.
This is not another kind of cruelty.
Thinking like this, I couldn't help but sigh out loud.
Jiang He was lying very close to me, and asked with concern, "Sister Ayu, are you cold, I will give you my coat?" ”
"It's not cold, it's just a little sleepy." If you don't want to chat, I'll throw a topic first, do you believe in fate? I asked.
Jiang Zhou answered: "When I was a child, my mother found someone to tell me fortunes, saying that I would run for others all my life, I was angry at the time, and I spit on people's heads, and then I met Little Mo Ge, and I felt that if I was running for him, it would be good." ”
Mo Shen laughed softly, "What did Ah Yu ask, I didn't hear clearly?" ”
Jiang He wondered: "How can I not hear clearly, I can hear very clearly, Ah Yu Sister asked us - Oops! ”
In the darkness, Jiang Zhou quietly kicked at his brother.
Jiang He climbed up and was trying to question his eldest brother, when he suddenly saw Mo Shen looking at him with shining eyes, and his heart suddenly understood that he was lying too close to Sister Ayu.
"Little Mogo, will you change places with me?" It's better to hear that way. Jiang He asked reluctantly.
"You boy, don't you just look at my place to shelter from the wind and warm?" With that said, Mo Shen moved over with the blanket in his arms. In the darkness, Old Pan coughed softly.
Mo Shen lay down, sorted out his sleeping bag, and the corners of his mouth had a triumphant smile.
Suddenly, the aura around me changed.
It was as if every cell in my body was equipped with radar, and those subtle sounds, smells, and even air currents were magnified countless times, allowing me to clearly feel the heat emitted from Mo Shen's young body, his long and rhythmic breathing, his slight squirming of the throat knot up and down because of swallowing...
These sounds made the sleeping bag under my body become hot, and I involuntarily leaned toward the cave wall, rubbing it a little more, trying to stay as far away from Mo Shen's body as possible.
In the darkness, Mo Shen laughed softly, the voice was exceptionally clear in the silence, and it was brought into my ear by my excellent hearing, just like his mouth was close to my ear and laughed softly, driving a slightly hot air current to exhale at my cheeks and neck, and a stream of warm blood jumped from the bottom of my feet to my chest and abdomen, to the top of my head.
I turned my head and opened my mouth wide against the stone wall to gasp silently, trying to say something, but my throat was a little dry.
Old Pan spoke: "The older you get, the more you believe in fate, today a few of us are lying in this cave, maybe fate has long been arranged, Ah Shen, you say yes?" ”
Mo Shen sighed, "Yes, if the Mo family didn't have a sense of smell beyond ordinary people, they wouldn't have done the strange stone trade, and if they didn't do this business, my great-grandmother wouldn't have come to Guangxi, and if she hadn't come to Guangxi, she wouldn't have contracted this disease, and if I hadn't contracted this disease, I wouldn't have bothered to inquire about the whereabouts of Ah Yu. ”
My face burned again, deliberately pulling the topic apart.
"The Mo family's sense of smell is not a special function, I heard that there are still people who can sneak on the seabed for more than ten minutes without protection, and some people can see through."
Mo Shen: "Human beings have always had some alien existence beyond ordinary people, I once heard the teacher mention that there is a memory family in Europe, they have a superior memory, how powerful, the plane passes over London, he can draw the entire London landscape, but also accurate to every shop, street, traffic lights. ”
I was secretly surprised in my heart, there were people like me?
The first time I saw Mo Shen, I clearly drew his appearance, even accurate to a dark red mole at the end of his left eyebrow. I've always been very impressed with what I've seen, like scanning into my own brain, and I can tune it out when I need to use it, presenting every detail in its entirety.
Of course, I wouldn't say those words to them.
Jiang He interjected: "I have heard of this family, didn't they all die of depression in the end?" ”
My heart was pounding again.
depend on! People with strong memories will die of depression, I think I am very good.
Over there, Jiang Zhou sighed: "It seems that there is something wrong with powerful people, you see Van Gogh painting so good, crazy, Churchill has made countless achievements in his life, he is also plagued by depression, Hawking, such a great physicist, paralyzed, and my little Mo ge ..."
Jiang Zhou's voice stopped abruptly.
Mo Shen's illness is something that does not exist all the time, but does not dare to mention, a young and warm family, but it may leave them at any time, which makes any topic become cautious.
Mo Shen did not think so: "There is an old Chinese saying that is called Heavenly Envy. God gave you something, and will take away something else, but it is quite fair, you see Ah Yu is so powerful, the result is not good. ”
I said angrily, "Who said I can't do my brain, I'm amnesiac, I'm amnesiac!" ”
Several people laughed out loud, and Old Pan persuaded: "All right, let's all sleep, old bones can't hold back." ”
The cave returned to calm, and only a few breathing sounds of varying weights could be heard.
I closed my eyes, my brow furrowed slightly, something flashed in my head, but I couldn't catch it, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
In the dream, it was like being in an icy lake.
My soul wandered out of my body, like a huge eye, silently watching itself.
The lake water was like living water that had been turned up from the depths of the earth, turquoise and clear, my body was rippling in the water, naked, the skin was soaked white, a red blood streak swept over me, on the pale skin it looked particularly vicious, the black long-haired seaweed spread out, along the water streaks in a circle outward...
A strong feeling of suffocation came.
The soul seemed to be pulled back into the body in an instant, and I suddenly woke up.
When you open your eyes, you're devastated!
Where was the lake, it was clearly a huge transparent blister, semi-suspended in the air, and I was locked in it.
Through the blisters, I could see that Mo Shen, Old Pan and the Jiang brothers were sleeping soundly, and they were not aware of my situation.
I slapped the blisters, but it was like falling into an invisible glue mass, and no matter how hard I tried, the blisters would bounce back, and I couldn't break free left and right.
At this moment, I was like an animal placed in the aquarium to be watched, grumpily struggling in this transparent blister, no matter how I pounced and churned, I couldn't get out, and the pressure of the blister bouncing back forced me to have less and less oxygen in my chest cavity, and I began to choke on water, and I was dizzy.
Don't panic, don't panic, calm down.
Over and over again I soothed myself and cheered myself up.
There must be a way, right?
Thinking about everything that has happened in the past few days, it is full of all kinds of coincidences.
Mo Shen came to me with the photo, I did not hesitate to rush to this trap, and then was attacked in Buya Village, because of Mo Shen's family misfortune and injury, so that my original resistance mentality began to change, followed them into the forest.
No one knows the exact location of the Moore Stone Forest, or even what it is.
But whether it's the hanging women, the ferocious mermaid beasts, or the murals, they seem to be deliberately guiding us in.
Will the truth be what I heard and saw?
Does Mo Shen have any reservations about me?
Thinking like this quietly, the feeling of suffocation disappeared, and I understood that all the force I exerted would return to me, squeeze my chest and lungs, simply relax, but instead gasp.
I could only wait to see if any of them woke up and found me trapped inside, trying to get me out.
The blisters fluttered gently and wandered around the cave like a soap bubble.
I lay inside like this, skimming over mo shen's heads again and again.
Soon, I realized something was wrong.
On mo shen's left-hand side, near the rock wall, lay a man, his long black hair exposed from his sleeping bag, although only a small half of his face was exposed, but I could really see it, it was myself!
What's going on?
I pounced to think clearly, the blisters were forced, and immediately bounced backwards, but instead took me away from them and flew over the cave.
This scene was so strange that I was imprisoned in a transparent blister and watched myself and Mo Shen sleep underneath. But I couldn't hear them, and they couldn't perceive me.
Mo Shen moved a little and seemed to wake up.
I was overjoyed, but his next movements made me feel cold.
Mo Shen held my dagger, the tip of the knife pointed at my neck, as if hesitating where to stab it.
What the bastard, what does he want to do!
I panicked, slapped the blister, tried to stop him, but couldn't do anything about it.
Mo Shen's knife had already pierced into "I"'s chest, "I" suddenly woke up, trying to dodge, the knife rained down on "I", "I" lay on the ground and finally did not move, as if dead in the past, a large pool of blood fainted under his body, flowing outward along the uneven ground of the cave, flowing into a thick blood-colored stream.
Mo Shen leaned down and gulped down, gulping down blood, and his pale and handsome face was stained bright red, which was extremely strange.
It turned out that if you were stabbed to death by a knife, there would be so much blood.
Before the disemboweled so many fish, how come they didn't find it?
I was desperate to find that the blisters that wrapped around me seemed to fade little by little with the gushing blood of the body.
The vitality of life seems to be disappearing continuously along the wound.
Indians say that when a person sleeps, the soul will run out, the body will die, the soul will be gone, and soon it will die, so am I going to die?
Wait, sleep, dream...
What if I'm stuck in a dream?
I picked myself up, forced myself to gather my spirits, re-examine everything in front of me, and try to find the flaws.
Mo Shen's hand had been carrying the trigger finger that had sneaked up on me, but in front of him, his hand was clean.
This man is not real!
"A fish, a fish..."
An urgent call sounded in my ears, far and near, and my hearing returned.
I took a breath, sat up violently, and as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Mo Shen's anxious face.
He reached over to hold my shoulder, and I dodged almost instinctively, my heart palpitating. Mo Shen's face darkened, as if he understood something.
"You don't trust me." Mo Shen wasn't asking me.
"The mermaid beast's blood infects the wound, which will make people enter the illusion, dream of being attacked by the people around them, and if they can't trust their teammates, they will be trapped in the illusion forever until they die."
I opened my mouth in surprise to say something, and Mo Shen interrupted me.
"There are some things I did hide from you, but I can't say, please believe me, I won't hurt you."
Can't be honest with me, but want me to trust you unconditionally?
I just think it's ridiculous, Old Pan and Jiang Zhou, Jiang He, they would have woken up from the dream a long time ago, if it wasn't for Mo Shen telling them in advance, wouldn't these people suspect in the dream that I, an old demon who has not died for a hundred years, stabbed them with a knife? Will they trust me unconditionally and break free from their nightmares by loving me?
"Believe you?" I grabbed Mo Shen's collar, and the corners of my mouth were ironic.
"Believe in a man who at any time just thinks about self-preservation? Trust a teammate who hides something from me at every turn? ”
"Me, I—"
Mo Shen's lips moved, his eyes drooped, and he looked up at me again, as if he had made an extremely difficult decision.
I waited for his explanation.
Caught off guard, Mo Shen suddenly hugged me forward, rolled sideways and rolled backwards, and the flashlight on the side rolled down the stone steps and flashed a few times.
"Survive and I'll tell you!" Mo Shen said urgently in my ear.
Almost at the same time, a snake-like black shadow swept past the position where I had just sat, and after feeling a flutter, it whizzed up, and its body split into five or six strips, straight towards us.
The swift snake shadow instantly opened into a net, Mo Shen hugged me tightly, a whirl fell to the ground, and his feet stomped the ground, leading me to slide towards the low part of the cave.
"Be careful, everyone!"
Jiang Zhou brandished the knife in his hand, and as he stepped back, he pulled up Lao Pan with Jiang He to dodge.
"What the hell is going on, what are these things?" The river shouted urgently.
I saw clearly that it was not a snake, but a plant vine with sharp black spines on its body.
At this time, the entire rock wall and ground of the cave were full of crazy long flower vines, the vines were black, and there were cherry blossom red buds on them, which looked very beautiful, but they were fatal.
They spread rapidly on the ground like they have long eyes, and they wrap around when they see people.
The terrain of the cave was extremely different, Mo Shen hugged me tightly and rolled all the way down, I put my hands on his shoulders, tightened my chin, slightly arched my back, and felt the pain of rubbing the rough ground and rubbing against my body. Gasping for breath, I felt Mo Shen's arm around my lower back expand slightly, and his other hand firmly clasped the back of my head and pressed against his chest.
Is he protecting me?
The palm of his hand was warm and moist, and Mo Shen was bleeding.
I tried to raise my head to see the form in front of me, a flower vine skimmed over Mo Shen's forehead, and the red blood flowed down instantly, I couldn't help but feel angry, waving a dagger towards the flower vine, they were hit and whizzed back.
In the next instant, it bypassed my dagger and attacked me like a madman.
But behind us, a stone pillar stood in the way, and there was no way back.
Finished!
Just when I was desperate, I suddenly felt a lightness in my body, and it was Mo Shen who threw me out and blocked the flower vine with his body.
For a moment, the blood rushed upwards, and he shouted, "Mo Shen! ”
As soon as the words fell, his figure flashed in front of his eyes, and he was pulled by the entangled flower vines and thrown out a few meters away.
Only the dull sound of the flesh hitting the stone wall was heard, and Mo Shen's low cry of pain was heard.
"Mo Shen, are you okay?" I shouted.
There was no response, like passing out.
My brain buzzed, thinking of the warm blood in my palm just now, and my eyes were sour.
"Rescue... life! ”
Looking back, Jiang Zhou's neck had been entangled in flower vines, and his whole face had become eggplant-colored.
I rushed over and slashed the flower vine with the thickness of my little thumb, and finally I heard the sound of his coughing.
"How, what to do? The entrance to the cave was blocked and nothing could be seen! Jiang Zhou asked in panic.
Jiang He slashed his double knife blankly in the darkness, and from time to time he was stabbed by the flower vine and exhaled in pain.
I reacted to this, they couldn't see the form clearly in the dark, but the stone platform where the luggage was placed had long been occupied by the flower vines, and there was no way to pass, so I said in a deep voice: "Follow my voice, start now, don't go away." ”
"Crouch, flash left, jump over..."
Unbeknownst to them, almost the entire cave was now almost occupied by flower vines.
As I led everyone towards the depths of the cave, I anxiously searched around for Mo Shen's figure.
"What about Ah Shen?" Where did it go? ”
Old Pan realized something was wrong, and he stopped and turned around and walked back.
"Don't go over, danger!"
It was too late, and the ferocious vine body wrapped around Old Pan in the blink of an eye and pulled him away.
I grabbed Jiangzhou and the river, sideways dodged a vine, and gasped for breath.
The flower vine seemed to see us, and turned back, and I stopped breathing in fright.
The flower vines that rushed forward suddenly stopped, swinging slightly from side to side, as if judging our position. Jiang Zhou didn't know what to step on, his body was crooked, and he cried out, and Hua Teng immediately pounced on him.
I quickly covered his mouth, and the flower vine stopped at the tip of his nose, motionless.
They are judged by our breath!
I gestured to JiangZhou and Jianghe, and everyone covered their mouths and noses, bypassed the flowers and vines, and sure enough, they were not attacked again.
But where can people hold back for so long, but within a few minutes, the cave will be filled with the sound of a loud breath.
The flowers and vines followed the sound, and we had to quickly hold our breath, and the cave was as silent as death.
Never felt like a minute was so long.
Time seems to pass slowly with malice, either suffocating alive or being hanged by flower vines, and it is difficult to escape death.
I felt a pang of despair in my heart, Mo Shen and Old Pan were only afraid that they were already dead, thinking that a few minutes ago, I was still sneering at him, scolding him as a "man who would only think about self-preservation at any time", but this person was just dragged away by the flower vine to protect me...
I was feeling sad, and a hand reached over and grabbed my ankle and pulled it down hard.
Caught off guard, I fell down, surrounded by cold, and there was a huge pool behind the cave.
There were two more thuds, and the Jiangzhou River was also pulled into the pool.
It was Mo Shen, he didn't know when he fell into the pool, yin and yang mistakenly dodged the attack of the flower vine.
I was stunned, momentarily ecstatic, and hugged his neck, and it was okay, fortunately, he was alive!
Mo Shen's body stiffened slightly, and then he reached out and gently patted my back, and it was all right.
At this moment, the dark cave suddenly lit up with a faint red light little by little, like countless fireflies flying into the cave and dancing all over the sky.
Look closely at the flower buds on the flower vines are open, the core of the flower flashes with red light, although the light point is small, but countless flowers cover the cave, but it is very spectacular and beautiful.
But the soft light illuminated the most terrifying and bloody scene.
At the top of the cave, on the mural, the position of the woman who was originally stabbed to death by the spear was wrapped in a humanoid thing wrapped in flower vines, and the spikes of the flower vines penetrated from the position of his heart, and the red blood flowed from the depths of his body, and was frantically absorbed by the flower vines, flowing everywhere like blood vessels.
The red buds that bloomed were glowing precisely because they had sucked human blood.
"Uncle Pan, is that Uncle Pan..."
Mo Shen saw clearly that there were only a few of us in the pool.
It was clear who the humanoid figure wrapped in flower vines in a cicada-like pupae was.
He got up from the pool and wanted to walk toward the humanoid cicada pupa to see what was going on.
"Ah Shen, don't, come here—"
A faint sound sounded from the depths of the flower vines, and was exceptionally clear in the silent cave.
Old Pan was still alive!
No, that can only be counted as half-dead, he and the flower vine have been integrated, and it will not last long.
Jiang Zhou and Jiang He had red eyes and pressed Mo Shen's body to death.
In the past, it is equivalent to sacrificing a life in vain.
Mo Shen's strength at this moment was amazing, desperately struggling, he actually threw away the river, he reached out and climbed out of the pool, and the wounds on his body burst out more blood because of the force.
I slapped it and scolded, "You calm down, what's the point of sending it to death?!" ”
Old Pan's whole body was already deeply entangled with the flower vine, a vine passed through the hole in his eye, slowly moving, the vine was shining with red blood stains, he had already given up the struggle, his body relaxed, a residual eye looked at us gently, and finally landed on Mo Shen, as if to see him into his heart.
"Ah Shen, you have to live."
Only a crunching sound was heard, and Old Pan slammed his head into the rock wall with all his strength.
Yin Hong's blood flowed down from the top of Lao Pan's head, and soon seeped into the flowers and vines and disappeared.
In such a resolute and powerful way, he blocked Mo Shen's death.
Mo Shen was as if he had been struck by thunder, and his body seemed to be lifeless, and he knelt down softly.
Exhale softly from your mouth, Dad.
The pale teenager closed his eyes tightly, trembling slightly as he tried to suppress his emotions.
A line of tears silently slid across his face, down his emaciated jaw, into the pool.
The picture of Old Pan looking at Mo Shen lovingly flashed in front of his eyes, and his laughter was full of pride.
"I brought up this child..."
“...... Girls like it from a young age..."
I put my hand on his shoulder and tried to open my mouth to comfort him.
Another eerie scene occurred.
The black flower vine, like a cloth, fell from the top of Uncle Pan's corpse, densely packed, spinning rapidly, and in an instant, the whole person was gone, and blood, water, flesh and blood splashed out like a waterfall.
The flower vines covered with caves absorbed bone blood, the cherry blossom red buds opened in unison, and the petals of the previously faint glow suddenly shone brightly, and the entire rock wall was like a cherry blossom red wall.
I blurted out, "Entrance! ”
It turned out that the cherry blossom red wall in Mo Chenghui's mouth actually needed to be sacrificed with the bones and blood of living people to appear!
