Secret 1

Chapter 33 Piranha (2)
"Oh, God!"

Henry hugged his head, as if the brain had also been shattered in two.

There is no light in the narrow bathroom, and candles are lit by the sink.In this suffocating space, there was a rotten smell.

Suddenly, Li Shu's voice came from outside the door: "HELLO! HELLO!"

He knocked on the door outside and shouted anxiously in English: "Hey, Henry, what was that noise just now? Did the mirror break?"

Yes, the mirror in the bathroom was broken by Henry. He still faced his broken face, locked the small door of the bathroom tightly, and let the Li Shu outside scream.

Shards of glass cut his fingers, and a few drops of blood fell onto the mosaic floor.But he still held the porcelain cup, stared at the mirror with resentment, and then shook his hand heavily.

There was another crisp crash.

The entire mirror was shattered, and amidst the splashed glass, Henry laughed wildly.It was as if there was a demon hiding in the mirror, with whom he had a sworn feud.

While laughing crazily, the door of the bathroom was knocked open, and Li Shu pressed heavily on him, knocking the candle to the ground.

Li Shu only felt a burning pain in his shoulder. Hearing the movement in the bathroom just now, it was obvious that the mirror was smashed—Henry had been in the bathroom for an hour, and they were all waiting to death. I don’t know what happened inside. , Li Shu tried his best to break open the bathroom.

Huang Wanran and Qiuqiu's mother and daughter also stood outside, watching them nervously.Henry stopped laughing wildly, and Li Shu supported each other to stand up, and all the mirrors in the bathroom were shattered.

It was already dusk, and the two groups that went out to explore the way did not come back. The rest of the people were in this room on the second floor, and the mummy of Tu Nan was still lying in the next room.

Ding Ding, the mysterious girl, and Tang Xiaotian, who was thinking about Yang Mou, all gathered at the bathroom door.Henry came out with a pale face, holding his hand against the wall and panting for breath.Li Shu rubbed the shoulder on the side of the door, and asked Huang Wanran to check for himself. After confirming that he was not dislocated, he said to Henry in English: "What happened? Are you critical?"

Henry's lips moved a few times, and an indistinct sound came out of his throat. Li Shu could only put his ear to his mouth, and then heard a sentence in English.

In an instant, Li Shu's expression changed drastically, and he stared at the others with wide eyes, as if hesitating whether to speak out or not.

"What did he say?"

Facing Huang Wanran's questioning, Li Shu had no choice but to relay Henry's words in Chinese——

"The prophecy in Angkor Wat - if you dare to break into this mysterious city without permission, you will be cursed forever. No one can escape this prophecy, just as no one can escape death."

This sentence silenced everyone, Huang Wanran, mother and daughter looked at each other in blank dismay.Qiuqiu, who never cared about fear, also frowned and took half a step back.Tang Xiaotian tightly held the top hand, praying in her heart that her groom would return to her side soon.Li Shu looked at Henry's face again, and in the gray eyes of the Frenchman, there was a devout worship of oriental mysticism.

The 21-year-old "unknown girl" was not intimidated at all, but stared at the almost crazy Henry with cold eyes.

Only these eyes can conquer the devil's fortress, even if the prophecy back then came true.

With his back against the wall, Henry slipped and fell on the floor slowly, unable to hide from her no matter what, it seemed that there were silk threads oozing from his pupils, which stuck his eyeballs firmly, imprisoned in the empty city forever and could not escape.

"NO!"

Henry shrank his body back desperately, as if trying to punch a hole in the wall.But he didn't dare to close his eyes, and he didn't even dare to blink half his eyelids.

The mysterious girl also squatted down and continued to stare into Henry's eyes.And what Henry saw in her eyes was no longer a beautiful girl, but a horrible zombie.

Suddenly, Ding Ding pulled her away, dragged her back to the study and closed the door.

Henry finally closed his eyes and took a deep breath, like the resurrection of the dead who had been sleeping for many years.

In the narrow study room, Ding Ding also looked at the "unknown girl".Since seeing her for the first time yesterday afternoon, those eyes have been floating in my mind, so strange and familiar—two fatal mirrors.

"What did you want to do just now?"

The girl didn't resist her either, and replied nonchalantly, "I just want to help him."

"Is this helping?"

"I think he is very poor."

Ding Ding sneered: "Yes, we are all pitiful. Everyone in this empty city is pitiful, including you and me!"

"I don't feel sorry for me."

"No, Twig—you're poor."

She called out the girl's name. Although the girl said it herself, Dingding could not confirm the "authenticity" of the name.What's more, the name "Xiaozhi" is too special and important to Ye Xiao, so he dare not tell him these two words.

"is it?"

"You don't know your parents, you don't know your school, you don't know why you are here, you don't know what happened here? If we hadn't come here, you would have survived alone, like a fallen leaf, It ends up rotting away in the dirt."

Ding Ding said so much in one breath, in fact, this is also a kind of provocative method, provoking Xiao Zhi to speak the truth, but what she got was still disappointment.She took half a step back, and just as she was concentrating on it, there was a chaotic commotion outside.

Heart, against the mouth of the throat again.

In the evening, at six fifteen.

Tong Jianguo and Qian Mozheng from the first group, Ye Xiao, Sun Zichu, Lin Junru and Yi Lianna from the second group came back together.

The public vehicles could no longer be driven. They came out of Nanming Palace in the center of the city, found their way back through "Zhuque Street", and walked back to the base camp with difficulty.

Six people came back at once, and the room became much more lively.Huang Wanran and Tang Xiaotian were busy pouring water for them. Sun Zichu's leg was almost broken, and he sat down on the sofa moaning.

Ding Ding in the study heard the movement, opened the door and bumped into Ye Xiao, his eyes met each other in silence for a moment, he asked awkwardly: "Where is she?"

"inside."

Ding Ding replied lightly, returned to the living room and remained silent.Ye Xiao stepped into the small study room, only to see the mysterious girl sitting under the window, the tree shadow shrouded her black hair, casting a phantom-like luster.

He didn't know her name was "Xiaozhi", so he could only cough dryly: "How are you?"

She glanced back, but did not answer Ye Xiao's question.

"One day you'll tell me everything."

Ye Xiao coldly exited the study, remembering the conversation with Sun Zichu in the corridor of Nanming Palace.

It was confirmed that the few people who stayed behind were not surprised, but Henry's face was very strange, and he was hiding in the corner without making a sound.Ye Xiao whispered to Li Shu quietly: "What's the matter with the French?"

"I don't know. I stayed in the bathroom for a long time and smashed the mirror again. It really worried me."

"Look at him!"

Ye Xiao turned around but saw Tang Xiaotian was holding on to Qian Mozheng and asked, "Why didn't Yang Mou come back?"

Facing this persistent bride, Qian Mozheng didn't know how to answer, scratching his scalp under his long hair and said, "He—he'll be fine, don't worry."

This obvious comforting words made Tang Xiaotian even more anxious: "Isn't he in the same group as you? Why are you and Tong Jianguo the only ones left, where are the other three?"

"Sorry, we don't know, don't know where they are."

It was Tong Jianguo who came out to speak, and he was more than 50 years old when he spoke with the most weight.Tang Xiaotian sat down in despair, muttering to herself: "No, you can't leave him behind."

"We will find them."

Tong Jianguo is old enough to be Tang Xiaotian's father, and these words seem to represent the responsibility of the elders.

On the contrary, Huang Wanran's expression was very natural, and she wasn't worried about her husband at all.Perhaps, it was also a relief for her to disappear into the jungle forever—but this was too unfair to Qiuqiu. She looked back at her 15-year-old daughter, and finally frowned.

The sky outside the window was getting darker and darker, so everyone decided to prepare dinner first, with Huang Wanran as the head chef, Tang Xiaotian and Lin Junru as the helpers.

Except for the mysterious girl Xiaozhi who stays in the study, everyone is listening to Sun Tzuchu's nonsense.He described the square and the palace with eloquence, and brought everyone to the splendor of the golden wall.Lin Junru lit a candle for him, and under the candlelight, he pointed to Jiangshan Pass, as if he had replaced the position of the tour guide.

Tong Jianguo snorted contemptuously: "If you met that wolfhound, I'm afraid you'd be so scared that you'd pee your pants on the spot."

"What did you say?"

Sun Tzuchu couldn't tolerate insults to his guts the most, and everyone else kept silent sensibly, and they were the only ones left in the room who were at war with each other.

"Enough, let's be more polite to each other!"

Li Shu came out and became a peacemaker.He quietly turned his head to stare at Henry, the Frenchman curled up in a corner as if forgotten.

At this time, Huang Wanran and the others brought in the dinner. Although they changed some patterns and materials, they were still all packaged food.

She lowered her head and said softly, "Sorry, let everyone eat these."

"It's okay, you did your best, and we are very grateful to you."

Qian Mozheng comforted her, but Qiuqiu rolled his eyes. He sighed helplessly, grabbed the bowl and started to eat.

Everyone is already hungry, especially those who went out to explore the road in the afternoon.Both Ye Xiao and Sun Tzuchu devoured it all, and it took less than 10 minutes to solve everything.

Only Tang Xiaotian couldn't eat at all, she insisted on waiting for Yang Mou to come back before eating.Others are inconvenient and reluctant, Huang Wanran can only prepare hot dishes for her, thinking that women in love are really stupid, but wasn't he the same back then?He raised his head and met Qian Mozheng's gaze again, and quickly turned his head away.

He held a candle in one hand and carried the supper into the study with the other.Xiaozhi almost fell asleep, but after being woken up, she picked up the rice bowl and ate without thinking.Ding Ding watched her eating and wondered if she was a human or a ghost?
After the meal, several people helped to clean up the tableware together. Night had already fallen outside the window, and it was already past seven ten.

The night in Nanming City made everyone anxious.

There was only candlelight left in the room, Ye Xiao reminded everyone to be careful, if the candle was knocked over and caused a fire, it would be a disaster.

Should we continue to wait for the three people here, or should we go back to the room where we slept last night?Everyone's opinions were somewhat different. Tang Xiaotian was determined to wait, while Huang Wanran wanted to go back to the fourth floor with her daughter to rest.

With so many people in one room, Irina felt suffocated, so she simply opened the living room window.A gust of cool wind immediately invaded the room, blowing out the candles on the dining table and coffee table.

The world fell into darkness again.

Lin Junru couldn't help screaming, and almost leaned against Sun Zichu.Elena didn't expect the consequences of opening the window, so she panicked and closed the window tightly again.In the room, you can't see your fingers. Several people bumped into each other, and all of them were in a mess.

"Calm down, everyone! Don't move!"

Ye Xiao's heartbeat also accelerated, and he could only see some shadows swaying in front of his eyes, and chaotic footsteps sounded all around.There was also the sound of friction between the human body and the corners of the clothes, Tang Xiaotian's crying, and even Sun Zichu's cursing.

Suddenly, he thought of the mysterious girl in the study.

She must not be allowed to escape in the dark, Ye Xiao touched the door of the study based on memory, and shouted inside: "Hey, are you still there?"

But there was no echo in the room. He nervously went in and closed the door, groping in the dark.

So, between the fingers touched a soft thing, smooth and with a suitable temperature, that is the skin only young women have.

Although there was still no light, he could feel those eyes, as if he could see her pupils clearly, and the name floated in his heart.

He swallowed hard at his Adam's apple a few times, almost uttering those two words——

A certain ray of light flashed in the corner of his eyes, followed by another sudden jump of light, which was the flickering of the desk lamp in the study.The whole room blinked like a soul, and the pupils shrank violently...

Her shadow and her eyes flicker in this mysterious light and shadow.

At the same time, a hissing dark roar sounded from the lamp tube, like a mandrill hiding in a dense forest, drooling and preparing for a surprise attack.

"boom!"

It was almost the sound of an explosion.

In an instant, the lights came on.

It was not the candles that were relit, but the electric lights in the room.

The table lamp suddenly turned on, and the white light shone on her face, together with Ye Xiao touching her fingers.

Eye!His eyes were violently stimulated, the pupils narrowed almost closed, and his brain seemed to be torn apart.

Are you blind?Ye Xiao's heart sank to freezing point, and the hand that touched the girl's face also retracted.

He forced himself to raise his eyelids, and subconsciously said, "I'm sorry!"

Finally, he saw it.

The mysterious woman under the light, that name that will never be forgotten.

Both had weird expressions, especially her wide-open eyes, which seemed to be facing a miracle.

So, he thought of a more urgent matter - why did the light suddenly turn on?
Calling?
He hurriedly opened the door of the study, and found that the living room was brightly lit, the chandeliers, wall lamps, hanging lamps, kitchen lights, and even the bathroom lights were all on, and the whole room was already like daytime.

Everyone was dumbfounded and extremely surprised. Sun Zichu wondered if this was a dream, and tried to reach out to the electric light, but his skin was almost scalded.The refrigerator also made a roaring sound, and Lin Junru quickly opened the door to see that all the lights inside were on.Qian Mozheng even turned on the TV, but unfortunately he couldn't receive any signal, and the screen was covered with snowflakes.

This sudden change made everyone inexplicably excited-at least there is light when there is electricity, and there is hope for survival. Maybe the tragic fate will be reversed?
Ye Xiao quickly opened the window, the garden outside was still dark, but there were faint lights flickering downstairs.

Is everything back to normal again?

Just like the curse of Swan Lake was broken, and the knight who turned into stone was resurrected?
The frozen time started to move again, and the whole city regained its vitality?

The hosts are going home soon, pulling out the keys to open the door?

But where does electricity... electricity... electricity... come from?
2006年9月26日19点19分19秒。

Nanming City was awakened from a deep sleep.

Ye Xiao looked over the door, walked down the dimly lit corridor, walked through the breezy alley, and came to the quiet street under the starry sky.The street lamp was bending his neck to shine on him, and several shops shot out light one after another, and the buildings in the distance were dotted with stars.The lights of a video store opposite suddenly turned on, and a pure and beautiful voice came out gradually——

Who is knocking on my window, who is stirring the strings.That period of forgotten time gradually rises to my heart...

His eyes followed Cai Qin's singing, and he floated up in the night wind, reaching an altitude of hundreds of meters.The sight in the dark night became so clear, countless lights lit up on both sides of the street, like the Milky Way falling into the valley of the southern country.The entire Nanming City is at the foot, the huge and closed basin is like an ancient porcelain bowl.Nuoda's big city has become a pearl in the deep sea, emitting dazzling and supernatural light.

He closed his eyes and prayed silently, please turn back time for 3 minutes.The lens is installed in his pupil, with a pair of feathered wings inserted, overlooking the earth by the wind.Shoot the dark sea, the choppy buildings and streets, which have been sleeping for 365 days and nights, turned into huge tombstones, and turned into a cemetery where souls are buried, quietly waiting for the end of the world.

Suddenly, the first point of light lights up in the dark.

The second, the third, the fourth... Hundreds of thousands of light spots ignited one after another.A street lights up, and another street lights up.After flickering on and off for a few seconds, a small half of the city opened its eyes, and the whole city was lit up in the blink of an eye.Countless stars are shining on the ground, so eye-catching and brilliant, fireworks are blooming on the bottom of the sea, and lava is flowing on the ground——

The miracle was born, the singularity of matter and time, the prince kissed the lips of the sleeping princess.

God's light descends upon the sleeping city.

Do you hear, a voice at this very moment says, "Let there be light."

"There must be air between the waters."

"Plants grow."

"The universe needs celestial bodies."

"Animals reproduce."

"Create man in my image."

Then came Sunday: "Please give us a break and look forward to the second season of "Secret"..."

(The first season is over, please look forward to the second season of "Tianji")
