“Sit down when you’re done.” Chu Huan threw the rope with a few people on the ground and sighed exhaustedly. “Listen to me first.”

He clasped his hands together and wiped his face hard, then coughed slightly, and slowed down the speed of the speech as much as possible: “Don’t worry, you listen to me to sort out-now things are like this, we must before the scepter burns out , Rushed to Shen Xingdao to find the holy book, or at least clues to the holy book, only the holy book can tell us how to deal with the following crisis. Then now the road has gone half way, you suddenly said you want to go back? “

Ruger asked facelessly: “If you are sensible, you will understand that this idea is right.”

Chu Huan pinched his eyebrows hard, trying to suppress the anxiety in his heart. After a while, he pretended to be calm, and said optimistically: “I am a little confused now-this thing … do n’t care What is it-this shadow in the sinking ground, it certainly has its own consciousness that has not run, it is now staring at us for some reason, and through various methods will not let us pass this mountain, this is not just to show that the road is right Is it? “

Nanshan didn’t say a word, Ruger didn’t even bother to refute, but sneered gently.

Only Yuan Ping sighed: “You don’t understand.”

Yuan Ping was hardly serious. He said, he bowed his head silently and walked down to sit next to Chu Huan: “I told you that we were born from the holy water, which is part of the mountain. The mountain is dead or alive. It ’s not fake, do n’t you feel it by breaking an arm yourself? ”

Forgetting that there is still this, Chu Huan choked up.

Ruger stared indifferently at the sea of ​​clouds where the black mist was flying. Over the years, the gatekeeper has experienced countless deaths and life. He has become accustomed to this-if he is unable to return to heaven, he will calmly die.

The gatekeeper’s life is set in stone. For them, sometimes death is just a familiar end.

The four men fell into a silence that was more suffocating than the valley.

Yuan Ping used his fingers to pinch the rope tied to his hand, step by step, and then let go of the crumpled rope, so he went back and forth several times. :”I do not.”

The ice sculpture-like Ruger finally responded, looking down at him.

Yuan Ping said: “The patriarch, I will not go back. I have encountered everything in my age, but even if the sky falls, I haven’t honestly waited for death.”

Slender Ruger’s eyebrow twitched slightly, seeming a little stunned.

Yuan Ping kicked Chu Huan sullenly, coughing dryly: “You, say something too.”

Chu Huan has nothing to say. The reason why he is here, not to mention all, at least more than half of the reason is for Nanshan. As for Nanshan, he came to the death ground for his people.

Now Shenshan is falling, the clan is gone, and there is no place for them to stand in the world. Chu Huan doesn’t know what his own view can change.

Nanshan didn’t say a word on the side, as if he was insane.

Yuan Ping was isolated and helpless for a while, embarrassed, and had to kick his foot again Chu Huan: “Savior, can you still have the torch on your neck, can you do it? Do not shrink back at the critical moment?”

Chu Huan photographed the shoe prints on his pants without expression, ignoring him, just opening his head and saying to Nanshan: “I told you that I jumped on my own. . “

He didn’t have a shop before the village, which was very puzzling. No one except Nanshan understood.

Nanshan finally responded, turning his eyes slightly to look at him sideways, and said in a mute voice, “Isn’t it lying to me?”

Chu Huan smiled bitterly: “So shameful, how embarrassed to admit-I was … really did not expect to meet you.”

Nanshan’s expression is not happy or sad. As far as the situation is concerned, Chu Huan is unlucky to meet himself.

“I just didn’t mean anything at that time. If no one needed me anymore, what would it be like if I lived every day and lived like a zombie?” Chu Huan ignored Yuan Ping because he seemed to suddenly understand what he felt. ‘S expression, and then said, “So now I think about what you said to me, I think it makes sense.”

Nanshan froze.

Just listen to Chu Huan said: “At that time, I copied the information of the veterans on the mountain and said to go back to report the funeral of their family members. You said to me,” I am alive without death. “Do you remember?”

Nanshan fixedly looked at him for a while: “Are you persuading me to go down?”

Chu Huan spread his hands: “You are the head of my family, I do not persuade you. If you want to go forward, I will accompany you to go forward, if you want to go back to the mountain, I will go back to the mountain with you.”

Nanshan listened silently for a long time.

At this point, his path was completely cut off, and he felt like a coward when he turned back, and he felt like a joke forward. He gripped Chu Huan’s hand tightly, and at one time he only felt as if he was watching this person. Only then can he make up for the kind of fragility and powerlessness that his lost hometown brought to him … unable to resist.

“go.”

Finally, Nanshan stood up and cut the ground with a knife and axe.

Yuan Ping just wanted to agree and heard a soft hum. Then he remembered that there was something wrong with his position. He inadvertently isolated his head of the family. He quickly turned around and tried to remedy: “That, patriarch … this …”

Lu Ge’s pale face was a serious skin like frost, and he glanced at Yuan Ping lightly, but he couldn’t see whether it was joy or anger. Then he picked up the poisonous green snake without saying a word, desperately throwing the fat insect into Yuan Ping’s arms, holding the burning scepter and walking to the front to open the road.

This little shoe was really wonderful. After a moment of stun, Yuan Ping found that he was being watched with love by the poisonous snake, and then he did n’t even pay attention when he was anxious. On the one hand, I was afraid to disturb this living creature in my hand, and the atmosphere would not dare to come out.

His whole body stiffened into a goal post that was going in and out of the valley, and he snorted with a breath: “Save, save …”

It’s a pity that he failed too much, and no one was willing to rescue him once. In this way, Yuan Ping held the bi-colored viper in his hands and maintained such a posture that Ma Gu gave birth to his life. The unwilling footprints left a deep ditch on the ground.

They were finally forced to break through, and walked into the depths of darkness without turning back.

And fearful, or pretending to be relaxed, they all know each other well, the sun in this world will never rise from any corner again.

A few people followed the ridge carefully around the valley, and for a while there was still a looming cry.

Xiao Green was probably a little tired by Yuan Ping, and left him spontaneously to find Chu Huan.

Yuan Ping was so relieved, and he was also in a mood to think about something else. As he walked, he said thoughtfully: “Screaming is generally afraid, crying … It seems that it is generally sad and sad?”

When he mentioned this, several people thought about it, and they all made sense.

When a person is sad, at first, it may indeed be a daze in the heart, then? To a certain degree of sadness, there will be a feeling of suffocation, which coincides with their experience in the valley.

“The shadow that had climbed down from that girl has been chasing us to the river. You said it didn’t dare to cross the river. Is there such a possibility,” Yuan Ping continued, “For example, the river belongs to another kind of It does n’t dare to cross the boundary-that is to say, the ground is actually not a whole, but is divided into many blocks. “

Chu Huan: “Not necessarily, it may be that it knows that we can’t climb this mountain after crossing the river. The elder told me a very strange thing about the sinking ground, he said, ‘The sinking ground is a consciousness, what makes people I ca n’t even think about it. I have been thinking about what this sentence means. Now I seem to have touched a side, but I am not sure. “

Nanshan had calmed down by the strong psychological endurance at this time, and was holding the rope to guard around, and heard Yan Shensheng said: “You said.”

“The so-called sinking ground refers to the places engulfed by these shadows. If the mountains and rivers in these places have no problems,” Chu Huan paused. “The problem is the kind of shadow that will spontaneously spread. We can think of it It is some kind of unknown life. “

This statement is obviously much easier to accept than “the enemy is the world.” Chu Huan really got his heart. The language used is actually very skillful. In three words, the invincible enemy is pulled to a height that does not have to look up.

He whispered that although it was all speculation, some words were still very nonsense at first glance, but it sounded inexplicably convincing … presumably the group of people who specialize in senior bank card fraud also have this skill.

“Since it is a kind of life, it must obtain energy by ingesting something. I believe that there is no such energy plant. It can only be obtained by animals, including people.”

Ruger frowned: “You mean it eats people.”

“Yes, but it is a life form that I can’t understand at the moment, so it doesn’t have to be human or animal flesh.” Chu Huan thought for a while, “I think it may have something to do with human consciousness- So I have a question now. Are these animals such as Patriarch Rug, Mutay, Sound Beast, Eye Eater, Dead Flower, Phantom Monkey really existed since the beginning of time? “

Chu Huan has been pondering this matter since the mountain tour. In his view, the existence of these monsters is very unreasonable-to know that the ecosystem is very fragile, with the combat strength like the mountain guards against some of them Monsters have no power to fight back, let alone other wild animals?

Then the ecosystem must be shuffled. The result is that one or several of these monsters must multiply so much that they force other creatures to become extinct. This is normal logic.

When they encountered the eye-eating beasts in the forest, Chu Huan felt that something was wrong-the monsters were a group. Although the internal management problems were great, they were barely regarded as division of labor and cooperation, and even storage of grain reserves. But they fled through the forest, and there seemed to be no place to raise cubs.

Do they have no cubs at all?

As soon as this question was thrown, Nanshan didn’t know, but Ruger was stunned. His impression seemed to be unclear. After a long memory, he was a little uncertain and said, “If you say this, it seems that it is indeed …”

In the old age, even the gatekeepers left only a thin impression, but Ruger remembered that the gatekeepers were the guards of the Divine Mountain at the earliest. At that time, when they were old and weak, they would automatically throw themselves into the Holy Spring, waiting for the arrival of new life, As if I didn’t know when to start, the gatekeeper was faced with endless battles from birth. It seems that it has become a very luxurious thing to be able to live old and sleep peacefully in the holy spring.

“They appeared suddenly, and I can’t tell exactly when.” Ruger said.

Chu Huan did n’t check whether the monsters and the sinking ground appeared at the same time. The world ’s information was poor and the error might be very large. He nodded and said, “Because these monsters correspond to exactly five human senses and consciousness. It is based largely on the senses, so I suspect that their appearance and growth will not be related to the sinking ground. “

“I agree,” Nanshan interjected nonchalantly. “The more you walk toward the core of the sinking land, the fewer monsters. Have you not noticed that we haven’t met one in a long time?”

Chu Huan: “I have been thinking about what happened to that little girl, including other people I met on the road. Their consciousness seems to stay in certain scenes that convinced them. I do n’t know to let them out through communication. What will happen after that scene, but obviously it is not what this devourer wants to see, otherwise it will not be able to chase us for as long as someone wearing a green hat. “

Several people nodded thoughtfully. For a moment, Ruger thought about his words from beginning to end, and asked with some doubt: “I understand what you mean, but what is the green hat?”

Chu Huan: “…”

As he deepened his understanding, he found that the gatekeeper’s patriarch seemed to have only a little emotion, and he looked cooler. His focus was always so comprehensive and sharp, and he didn’t let go of a little doubt.

Nanshan: “It’s not serious, just ignore him.”

Chu Huan was speechless again. If he wasn’t old, Nanshan didn’t seem to know what a green hat was. Their family head seemed to have added a function of filtering sensitive words in a subtle way.

Chu Huan didn’t really want to know what his image was in the other person’s heart.

“But if you say sad …” Nanshan said, “You can try to keep saying ‘this is fake’ in his ear.”

“Alas, Nanshan Patriarch, you are too straight-browed,” Yuan Ping couldn’t hear anymore. “Of course it’s fake, but do you believe you when you talk about it? That’s too easy.”

Chu Huan didn’t take the chance, thinking carefully.

“People are different when they are sad,” Nan Shan said quietly. “If someone tells him everything that happened is fake, he is more willing to accept than you think.”

Chu Huan couldn’t help but ask: “How do you know?”

Nanshan glanced at him, and he didn’t say that Chu Huan had once stopped breathing in his arms, but that silently brought a thousand words in his eyes, he couldn’t tell what was included, and Chu Huan’s heart was crazy for unknown reasons Jump up.

Chu Huan coughed quickly, and turned his face to avoid his sight. It was rare to feel a little embarrassed.

He thought that his face was thick and hard to push, but now it seems that he hasn’t encountered enough true feelings.

Of course, this brainwashing-like fooling method is definitely useless for the groups in the valley, not to mention nagging in the ears of people, because the suffocation there is enough for them to drink a pot.

A few people walked for another day and night, and then carefully passed the mountain. In the vast wilderness, I met a man who seemed to be on his way.

“I can’t hear the voice.” Chu Huan said.

Yuan Ping: “Of course you can’t hear from such a distance. Come closer.”

“It’s strength is increasing, be careful.” Nanshan held Chu Huan, and several people circled around the man carefully like a mine, approaching the past, Nanshan attached to Chu Huan’s ear and said, “Don’t ask What happened to him, just tell him everything is fake. “

Chu Huan vaguely felt that this idea was a bit unreliable, but there was no smarter way at that time.

As they got closer to the man, the familiar suffocation rushed up again, but perhaps the other person’s single-handedness, although a little chest tight, did not reach the point where he could not breathe.

Chu Huan licked his lips and, as the leader of his family instructed, started asking his Buddhist monk to read the scriptures without saying anything. “That’s false.”

Repeated many times, he felt that he was almost unable to understand these four words, his mouth was thinned, and his head was buzzing, but he did n’t even squeak.

Chu Huan turned back sneakily, lowering his voice: “I feel like something is wrong.”

Ruger bent over and observed the man: “Try again.”

“It’s a tight spell again after trying again …” Chu Huan gurgled, raised his hand tentatively, and pressed on the man’s shoulder. This time, he brewed his emotions for a moment and said as much emotion as possible, “That is fake.”

Suddenly, Chu Huan heard a sneer. He turned around inexplicably and looked at Ruger: “Patriarch Ruger, what are you laughing at?”

Ruger’s expression is a cold version of the unknown so “What?”

It ’s not Ruger laughing, then …

Chu Huan immediately reacted, withdrew his hand violently and was about to retreat.

He responded extremely quickly and shrank his hands as if he had touched the electric door, but it was still too late. A hot flame erupted from the man and he directly caught the rope in Chu Huan’s hand.
