infinite maze

Chapter 22 Ritual Account Dream Candy

When Mei Ziyi and Yun Cishu returned to the safe house, they smelled blood before they got close. They looked at each other and realized that something had happened!

When I came to the place where the mark was left before, I stretched out my hand and pushed it, and the stone door opened. This is not a good sign.

The much shrunk space inside the stone gate was filled with blood, and the blood was even slightly warm. The facilities in the house were crumbling, obviously after a struggle.And between the sofa and the bed lay a bloody skeleton, even with remnants of flesh left on it.

Mei Ziyi's breathing became chaotic for an instant. The torn clothes and the size of the skeleton all showed the identity of the deceased, but this made him somewhat unacceptable.He had seen countless deaths, both familiar and unfamiliar, but none of them were as tragic as they are now.

Just when Yun Cishu thought that Mei Ziyi would not be able to stabilize her emotions, Mei Ziyi checked the safe house calmly, then wrapped Liu Puzhen's body with the remaining sheets from before, and took Liu Puzhen out of the safe house .

Although it was impossible to bring Liu Puzhen's body out of the maze, at least he avoided the fate of the body being crushed into powder. This was probably one of the few things he could do.

Yun Cishu opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end, but Mei Ziyi understood what he wanted to say. This is not the real world, so the corpse doesn't really exist either.The longer you enter the maze, the more you will recognize the status quo, and the calmer your beating heart will be.

Unable to handle the corpse more carefully, Mei Ziyi put the corpse in a dead-end tunnel, and then quickly walked towards another safe house.If Lina is still alive, she most likely went to another safe house.

When the two rushed to the safe house, they stretched out their hands to push the door, but the door didn't open.Unable to tell what it was like, her heart fell slightly, Mei Ziyi knocked on the stone door, "Lina, are you inside?"

After a while, Shimen opened a gap from the inside, revealing Lina's blood-stained face. When Mei Ziyi and Yuncishu entered the room, Lina stepped back cautiously, looking at them with extremely vigilant eyes.She was in utter fear, but she opened the door anyway.

As time passed, the two of them did not mutate, and Lina's strong composure began to collapse, and she crouched on the ground and cried loudly.The sound inside the safe house could not be heard outside, and all the grief echoed in this small space, until Lina was tired from crying and squatted there sobbing softly.

Mei Ziyi seldom comforted others, so she could only step forward and pat Lina's head. Lina's hoarse voice sounded, "Liu Pu is really dead."

"He went to another world." Mei Ziyi's calm voice was not convincing, but Lina could only choose to believe at this time, otherwise her emotions would continue to collapse.

After Lina's mood stabilized, she told about what happened in the safe house. After the monster killed Liu Puzhen, she was completely attracted by Liu Puzhen's corpse. The bloody and cruel scene finally made Lina escape, and she herself I don't know how I managed to get to this safe house.

"That thing will turn into a human form, and it will ask questions, and if it answers, it will become true." Because of squatting for too long, Lina's legs were numb, and she fell to the ground at this time, and the two finally It was clear that she was still tightly clutching an opened can of fruit in her hand.

When escaping, the canned fruit was placed by the stone gate, and Lina kicked it out in a panic. There was not much canned fruit left in it, but Lina picked it up anyway. She didn't know why she picked it up, so she It seemed that someone would eat the remaining half can of fruit.

After Lina finished speaking, Yuncishu gave Lina a candy and told her to have a good sleep.Lina's thinking and actions were still somewhat mechanized, and she took the candy subconsciously. The sweetness of the candy spread in her mouth, and Lina gradually fell into sleep. Yuncishu transferred Lina to the bed while explaining, " This is Dream Candy, a prop obtained from a maze, which can force people to fall asleep and replenish their energy."

With Lina's current situation, it is impossible to fall asleep by herself. Forced sleep is the best choice, and the next conversation between the two must be inseparable from Liu Puzhen, and Lina is not suitable to listen to it.

Yuncishu took out another candy from his pocket and gave it to Mei Ziyi, "You keep this one, you may use it later, it's not precious."

Not giving Mei Ziyi a chance to refuse, she put the candy into Mei Ziyi's pocket, and then said, "What they encountered was the same as what we encountered, the mummy of the miner who died, and there were two kinds of chasers at night in the mine. , the miner and Axiu, Axiu is extremely powerful, almost no one in the mine can match him, the miner retains a certain amount of wisdom, and can deceive passers-by by changing his appearance."

"The miners want to leave the mine, who is restricting them?" This is what they knew from the mummy before. Although the miners are not as good as Axiu, they are no longer ordinary things, but they can't leave the mine. Mei Ziyi feels that the key point It's very close to them. "Who do you think Axiu was killed by?"

Axiu's clothes had long been stained red with blood, but no obvious injuries could be seen on her body. The village chief's age and physical strength were limited, and he did not have the ability to kill Axiu directly. Ah Xiu can only be a miner.

"Axiu has been missing for half a month, and the mine disaster happened for half a month. Maybe the mine disaster was not an accident." Yun Cishu understood what Mei Ziyi was thinking, and he happened to have similar conjectures. "Some people wanted to bury Axiu in the mine without anyone noticing. In order to avoid being discovered, that section of the mine must be an abandoned area. What happened during that period caused the mine disaster to happen, and everyone was buried in the mine. Next, we need to find Axiu's body, there may be clues, but it seems that we can only find it during the day, and Axiu at night is invincible."

While discussing the relationship between the chasers, the two checked the supplies and clues given by the safe house. The supplies were still batteries, food, water and cans.In addition, there is also a book of rites on the table, which is used to record the gifts of the people in the village when Ashu and Axiu got married.

The ledger is red, but it has faded a lot. On the hard cover, there are four words of a hundred years in gold.After opening it, the name and gift money are clearly recorded inside, and the amount of gift money varies from large to small.

Mei Ziyi found many familiar names in the book of rites, all of which she had heard from the village chief. The village is not big, and almost every household has records. What does this book of rites want to express?

When the two were studying the ritual account, there was a slight groping sound from the stone door. Someone was outside the door. That person seemed to have discovered the location of the stone door. He was rubbing his fingers back and forth along the stone door gap, as if he wanted to find a gap to drill. Come in.

The groping sound lasted for a while, and a soft inquiry sounded outside the door, "Is anyone there?"

It's Liu Pu's real voice!

The moment the voice sounded, Mei Ziyi's first reaction was that fortunately Lina was asleep, otherwise the situation might be bad.

The thing outside the door still didn't give up, knocked lightly on the stone door, "Can you open the door and help me?"

Mei Ziyi stood up, "I'll go out and have a look." If it was a miner's mummy, Mei Ziyi was confident that he could solve it alone, and there must be someone who opened the door in the safe house.

Yun Cishu subconsciously wanted to stop, "I'll go."

"We must take turns to go out to find the safe door tonight. This safe door will last until one or two o'clock in the evening at most, and there are plenty of opportunities to go out." Mei Ziyi looked calm, and she had already left the stone gate.

Yuncishu only saw Liu Puzhen's familiar face in the gap between the stone gates, but it was fake.

"Great, it's you, I can go in and hide for a while..." Liu Puzhen asked happily outside the door, but before he finished speaking, he was punched in the nose.

Liu Puzhen took two steps back, lowered his head and covered his nose and let out a nervous laugh. After being found out, he stopped pretending, grinned his weird mouth, and his body began to mummify.

It is basically certain that this is the mummy that killed Liu Puzhen. Amid the violent roar of the mummy, Mei Ziyi punched the mummy's head with every punch.

The mummy wanted to fight back with its teeth and claws, but it was beaten and kicked like a storm. In the end, the mummy didn't die, but was broken with many bones, piled on the ground like a pile of white firewood.

In the pitch-black space, only the light of the miner's lamp above Mei Ziyi's head flickered, accompanied by the occasional sound of bones breaking.

Suddenly, Mei Ziyi felt a chill behind her, which was a harbinger of death, and Mei Ziyi lowered her body subconsciously, dodging the sharp claws that came from behind her. Axiu who came here.

There was no sound when Axiu appeared this time, Mei Ziyi observed the distance between herself and the security door, she had to pass Axiu, and this was too difficult.

But what Mei Ziyi didn't expect was that Axiu didn't continue to attack after missing a hit. Instead, she floated to the side of the miner's mummy, and looked down at the mummy trying to crawl away in the mine.

Axiu let out a weird giggle, and then stepped on it, and there was a shrill scream in the tunnel.

Just now, even the dismantled mummy didn't let out the slightest scream, but now, it seemed to be in great pain.

The leg bones of the mummy just joined together were crushed like this, and Axiu seemed to think the sound was nice, so she stepped on it bit by bit.The shrill screams were mixed with fear and floated in the tunnel. Of course, there was Axiu's laughter corresponding to it.

This scene is so weird, but Mei Ziyi seems to understand something from it, such as the real purpose of that book of rites.
