Chapter 24 Homecoming

I don't know if I fell asleep or have been in a half-dream and half-awake state. The heartbeat of the grotto, steady breathing, the sound of clothing slipping off, and depressive panting, all kinds of sounds are noisy in my ears.

My body seemed to be torn by something, the cold touch reminded me of the first operation, I watched the doctor cut my body with a sharp scalpel, but felt nothing, no pain, only sutures When the time comes, the thin thread interspersed on my body drives my skin to lift up.

I couldn't open my eyes, cursed, trapped in a dream of nothingness.

"!!!" I stood up abruptly, checked my body for any abnormality, the clothes were put on well, rolled up the sleeves, the blue and purple marks became more obvious, as long as everyone kept their senses before going out, I secretly thought.

The only person around was Xiao Mo, Mao Zi and Han Lin tore their clothes in half under Wen Yu's strong reprimand, and rested and guarded on both sides of the team respectively. Mo Han could still sleep alone, but this time the dream seemed not quite right Friendly, she kept frowning.

Wen Di slept with her master, Wen Yu was reluctant at first, saying that she was not used to sleeping with two people, so Wen Di resorted to murder, using the content of the text messages she saw on her mobile phone as a threat, Wen Yu was arrested. forced to agree.

As for Xiaomo, he is lying beside me now. After a day of hard work and lack of water and food, he finally stopped messing around at night.

I looked to the right again, and the place where Jingyan was resting was now empty, and the place where she was resting was also gone.But I don't need to worry because I have Bikong by my side. I looked at the time and saw that I had only slept for four hours at around two o'clock in the morning, but I no longer had the desire to rest.

I carefully withdrew my left arm from Xiaomo's arms, and put her arm around my waist down, leaving the "bed" as lightly as possible.Little Mo's long hair hung down to the tip of her nose, and she swayed from side to side with her warm breath, probably because it was itchy, she wrinkled her nose slightly.

I smiled, bent down and returned the broken hair to its original position, looked around and walked towards the source of the sound.

Now I can walk like walking on the ground without a flashlight. This kind of infection is still very useful in the early stage.

Hmm~ The closer I got, the clearer the sound, and finally I stopped in front of a wall, and the source of the sound was behind this wall, I'm pretty sure.

The short breath was mixed with vague words, "Yanyan...I miss you so much..."

Well, I probably knew what was going to happen next, and suddenly I was tapped lightly on the shoulder, and I jumped out of the spot reflexively.

I saw Mo Han put her finger on her lips to signal me to keep silent, I nodded understandingly, and left this place of right and wrong with her.

Give them both some alone time.

Under the circumstance that neither of them planned to go back, we chose a place far away from the camp to chat. This place is very strange to me, but Mo Han has always been indifferent.She knows no less than I do.

"You're quite calm."

Mo Han found a seat on the bank of the moat, and I approached the bank to scoop up a handful of water and pat my face to refresh myself.

"That's right, I've been single until now by virtue of my ability." After saying this, I felt ashamed of myself, "I ate more dog food than rice along the way."

"I think you are very popular, Sister Qin also takes good care of you, and Manager Chu, Wen Di, even Jing Yan, who has never met before, will consider your words." Echoed in the not-so-quiet environment Indifferent voice.

"Sister Qin has been with Teacher Xu for a long time. This is recognized by our office. Xiaomo is my college classmate and best friend. She has an excellent work background, and many men are coveted! And Wendi, alas ~Just a little girl.” I don’t make comments, anyway, most of the people around me have their homes, and I’m the only one left alone.

"You should have more confidence in yourself." Mo Han said looking at the calm lake.

I really want you to see how attractive you are in my eyes.

I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere. "These words are also based on countless reincarnations, right? The me you are talking about now is not the current me, but another person you met in countless encounters. She has the same appearance and voice as me, but unfortunately , she is not me."

Make the matter clear, and it won't be too much trouble in the future. Ji Kong thinks I'm the leader of the team, but now I'm just an idiot who doesn't know when I will lose my mind; Mo Han thinks I'm excellent, but it's just in her memory Another me remained.

I don't live in another person's shadow, not even "me" myself.

"I'm sorry, if it makes you feel uncomfortable, I withdraw it. But I still hope you think about the first sentence and have more confidence in yourself." Mo Han is gentle and gentle, which makes me feel that I am going too far.

"It's nothing, what I said is too much, after all, in such an environment, memory and intuition are indispensable." Apologized hastily, and then went to the topic, "When do you usually start to recover your memory?"

"The time point is not fixed, and the first memory is very vague." Mo Han explained simply, "I mentioned the implicit memory to you before, and it is just a personal guess about it, and I am not the one who proposed it."

"Could it be me?"

So I am so good!

Mo Han smiled slightly, and she took out a small pocket watch from her bosom, as if she had never seen this thing before. "I found this from a box, but I can be sure that the box has never been opened by anyone. The box is full of dust, and the lock is rusty. If someone opens it, it will definitely leave a mark."

"But this pocket watch is obviously a handicraft of this era. Could there be such exquisite craftsmanship in ancient times?" I took the pocket watch and pondered. "Do you think it will be us in another world?"

"I think so too. This pocket watch is a custom-made gift I once made. Although I dare not say it is unique, there are very few people who can own it."

"That is, our actions in different worlds will also affect each other?" However, this influence seems to be limited, and Mo Han's discovery is only accidental, and there should be a refreshing mechanism here.

"And people from other worlds are very likely to have discovered it, otherwise they wouldn't have put this thing in such a hidden place on purpose."

"It seems there is a turning point." I returned the pocket watch, there is a loophole in reincarnation, and we have discovered it, even if I am not in the same world, I believe that "myself" will not sit still.

The swimming fish in the lake were trying to approach me, their bodies shimmering, but for the sake of safety, I stayed away.

"Is the time point going forward?" I thought about it and asked, "In my memory, you have 23 exes, but now you say there are 9."

"No, the time is irregular. It's like the time closest to me, the mechanism was triggered in the tomb, and I fell into the ground and lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was lying on the bed in my apartment."

"I'm sorry." Death is not an easy thing to accept. My abrupt question made Mo Han recall that dark scene again. I know that things can't be as simple as she said.

"It's okay, you should get used to it so many times."

"..." Continued the topic, "Then you had eight exes in your last reincarnation, but I participated in 23 reincarnations, and the time points were staggered."

The different processes of an event or the subsequent development of a different decision exist in different parallel universes. This is the famous theory of parallel time and space. I don't know whether it is applicable to our current situation.

A butterfly flapping its wings can cause a storm hundreds of miles away.It seems nonsense, but in reality this kind of chaotic effect exists, just like Archimedes' sentence, give me a lever, and I can move the earth.

Just like the simplest one, in the car accident in the city, the drunk driver was held back by me and Xiaomo, so that Jing Yan escaped.

If Wen Yu hadn't come to help us, if the driver had just run away and not entangled us, would Jing Yan still be standing here now?

"Even if I retain my memory in the next reincarnation, the you I see when we meet again may not be the current you." I murmured.

"To be precise, there were nine exes last time, because I didn't make friends this time. Let me say one more thing, it is inevitable that we came here. I tried countless times, but I couldn't change it. I came to Luoshui Mountain for tourism and entered Quenhu Lake by mistake. this matter."

Mo Han answered before me, this is what I want to know, since she knew that coming to Luoshuishan would be dangerous, why did she take the risk?

"Tongtong?" Xiaomo's voice, I still heard it from such a distance.

"Let's go back first! Otherwise, they will be worried when they wake up and can't find anyone." I stretched out my hand and said.

Mo Han grabbed my hand and used his strength to get up from the rock, and the two left side by side.

Returning to the warm bed again, I fell asleep against the noisy voice, my body seemed to be re-tempered, and the feeling of fatigue swept over me.

"If I become like this, I might as well be dead!" Looking at the monster in the secret room that we once mistook for the corpse of "Wen Yu", Wen Yu said with disgust, "Looking at his appearance, he must have committed some crimes." .”

I can't understand what Wen Yu explained, but it is enough to know that this monster is not her.

Jing Yan rummaged through other people's corpses on the other side of the room, most of them were bones, and only a few skeletons had rotting flesh left on them.

It was Jing Yan's request to come here, she was still obsessed with finding her family, so she obediently turned into a kitten and lay on her shoulders, her face full of fluffy fur couldn't stop her smile.It seems that yesterday was very satisfying!Looking at Jing Yan again, she could only bear with this shameless vicious cat, thinking that she would never see her again in a few hours.

"The clothes of these people are not our clansmen, they are probably Wen Yu's colleagues." Jing Yan made the final conclusion. In front of Wen Yu, she did not directly say the word "tomb robber". Thieves hooked on the bait appears neither fish nor fowl.

"Now Yanyan should feel relieved." The kitten lying on Jingyan's shoulder said suddenly.

Please, be a little self-conscious, don't talk when you are not human, my heart can't take it!

Suddenly, a strong sense of unease came to my heart, and my right arm began to fluctuate regularly, as if responding to something.I ran out of this disgusting and annoying secret room in a panic, and the rest of the people thought I couldn't stand the smell inside, so they followed.

"Where's Maozi?" I asked, there were only two men in total, and it would be easy to find out if one was missing.

Hearing the sound, Wen Yu searched around, but to no avail, "Strange? You were at the back of the team not long ago, where did you go now?"

"Should we search separately? The rooms here have been marked, so there shouldn't be any danger," Han Lin suggested.

"No need!" Jing Yan dismissed the proposal without hesitation.

"Well, it's better for us to act as a group now." My intuition told me that there were some invisible secrets hidden behind the darkness.

"Maozi already knows the time to open the door, and the route here is not complicated. If he just wandered off accidentally, he should reach the tomb door safely." Wen Yu seemed to have realized something, "There is nothing to investigate Let's go, time is limited."

Everyone coincidentally did not raise any doubts, but formed a group and continued on their way. I, Wen Yu, and Han Lin stood at the front and back of the team, paying attention to the surrounding situation at all times.

Vines glowing?

The closer you are to the gate, the more vines there are, and the stronger the sense of light, you don't need a flashlight at all.

But other people can't see it, so I can't see it too!

"Smell of blood?" I could smell a faint smell of blood from a distance from the gate.

"How can there be blood here? Is there anyone else besides us?"

I'm sure it's blood, though faintly.He quickened his pace hastily, and the rest of them followed up for no apparent reason, and finally arrived at the stone gate at noon, but nothing was the same.

Shu Ya lay quietly on the cold stone slab, the bruises on her neck were particularly glaring, her body was already broken, as if she had been bitten by a monster, her shoulders and thighs were bloody, and the gaps between her fingers were filled with mud. Traces of desperate struggle on the ground.

I staggered and ran over, witnessing this human tragedy, Deng Zhixin and Zhang Xinchi had disappeared, the equipment on the ground was still there but the food was gone.

I stopped, not daring to touch it, "Where is Deng Zhixin! Where is Zhang Xinchi! Where are people!"

No one answered me, of course.There is still an hour, and no one will accompany me to fool around.

"She was suffocated to death, she didn't suffer any pain." Wen Yu comforted me in a low voice, "Don't blame yourself too much."

Why on earth am I angry?As a partner in the tomb, the team was also buried in it. I also saw countless corpses along the way. I was already numb and only thought about how to get out alive.

why am i angry now

"There are signs of being bitten on her body." I choked up and said, "Compare the size of the teeth, it doesn't look like a beast."

In other words, it is human.

"..." Tiger poison is still invulnerable, but just two days of food deprivation turns a person into a devil-like existence.
