[Infinite Stream] Destiny Rubik's Cube

Chapter 38 The Price of Memory

"Oh, I gave it a temporary name." Zhou Qi said, "There is a litchi character engraved on that doll's body. Since it likes the doll so much, I'll give it this lychee as its name."

Xu Chi looked at him: "Is there a word on the puppet?"

Zhou Qi nodded: "Yes."

Xu Chi stretched out his hand: "Show me."

Zhou Qi rushed to the little moth, oh no, now it is a moth with only a name, Zhou Qi waved to Xiaoli, and Xiaoli lowered her head obediently.

The little puppet tied to the mouthparts hung in front of Xu Chi impartially. Xu Chi grabbed it and held it in his palm to check.

This is a doll of a future soldier wearing a metal coat. It is an exquisite collection. The head can be twisted, the wooden limbs can be folded, and the metal coat can be removed. The word "Li" that Zhou Qi said is engraved under the coat. on the back.Xu Chi looked at it silently for a few seconds, and said, these are three forces, not Li.Zhou Qi was puzzled, isn't the three powers Li?

Xu Chi turned the doll over: "There is a word Si beside the three forces."

"Ah? There's another word." Zhou Qi didn't see it before, so he didn't care about it at the moment. He laughed twice and waved his hand, "Okay, let's call it Lisi."

Xu Chi paused for a few seconds, and finally decided to tell him the cruel truth: "No, this is a word, pronounce it Xie. It sounds the same as the shoe of the shoe."

The little moth next to him heard it, and raised his head abruptly, and the little doll was taken away from Xu Chi's hand.

Zhou Qi: "..."

Zhou Qi would definitely not admit that he was illiterate, so he forced his respect: "Xiao Li sounds good! What do you mean by small shoes? No, no, it sounds bad. Xiao Li is pretty good, isn't it Xiao Li...Xiao Li?"

Xiaoli didn't know why, she called out "Woooooooooooooooooooooooo", and looked at him with big eyes in horror.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Qi noticed something strange.

Xiaoli flapped her wings, and her wings, which are impenetrable to bullets except for the venom that can corrode them, slapped the rocks, making a loud bang, and it was obvious that she was very excited.

Zhou Qi thumped in his heart, and wanted to step forward, but was pushed away by the strong wind brought by the wings.He is like an old father who was shut out by a rebellious child, scratching his head and saying hi: "No, you don't have to lose your temper if you don't like this name! Let's discuss it again. If you want to call it Xiaoxie, then Just small shoes."

Xu Chi stopped him, told him to keep quiet and wait and see what happened.

The little moth lost his temper and was so powerful that it almost demolished the entire small island reef. The lake overflowed, and it curled up on the last dry boulder, its wings folded to cover its head, tired and motionless.

Only then did Xu Chi let go of Zhou Qi.The two approached and got in through the gaps in the wings, and found that the little doll had been thrown off, falling on the stone man and shattered to pieces.

The little moth couldn't cry, and didn't cry, it just hung its head on the ground, but Zhou Qi could see that it was very sad.

As sad as a person.

No one spoke at first, Zhou Qi just held the little moth's head and stroked it.

Later, the little moth struggled in his arms, Zhou Qi backed away, the little moth flapped its wings, and slid its sharp forelimbs regularly on the stone under its feet, and there was a sharp sound like fingernails scraping a blackboard in its ears.

Xu Chi realized that it might be writing, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Unfortunate premonitions began to pile up in the top of his head.

The little moth wrote two words: Sun Xie.

Xu Chi's tongue was bitter, and he turned his head, seeing the same horror and bewilderment from Zhou Qi's frown.

"Is this puppet originally yours?" Zhou Qi asked cautiously, "Your name is Sun Xie?"

The little moth looked at him quietly with big eyes.

It was filled with sadness and despair.

"You can understand us. All moths upturned can understand, can't they?"

Sun Xie closed her eyes.

"You, you..." Zhou Qi clenched his fists, his chest swelled, and he didn't fall back for a long time. He asked the third question with difficulty, "We were all human before?"

Only silence answered him.

Silence is the spokesman for the truth.

"I don't understand." Zhou Qi squeezed the space between his brows, walked around irritablely, and couldn't figure out many things, "Since, since you are human beings, we are also human beings, why are you killing each other? Why did you come to rob the indigenous people? The children of the people? Why kill the passer? We, we are compatriots."

This time Sun Xie did not remain silent. He raised his head and spread his wings, with burning hatred in his eyes. He poked Zhou Qi's waist with his long mouthpiece and drove him up his back.

After knowing his identity, Zhou Qi couldn't help becoming vigilant: "Where do you want to take us?"

Sun Xie just pushed him.

It was Xu Chi who took the free flight first: "Let's go, whatever it is, go and see."

Sun Xie led them to the stone wall from last night. During the day, the moths had all gone out. There was no moth in this open space, which was actually much safer than at night.

The stone wall looked nothing special from a distance, it was bare, and as he approached step by step, Xu Chi put his hand on Zhou Qi's shoulder, tightened it, and said in a low voice, "There seems to be words on it."

Zhou Qi didn't speak, his face was ashen, the corners of his mouth were always tense, and he could see that he was in a very bad mood.

Xu Chi secretly made mental preparations, no matter what unbelievable secrets he saw later, it was normal.

After all, in Rubik's Cube, anything bad can happen.

But there are no secrets in the walls.

What is more shocking than having no secrets is that this wall is full of names.

Those are real names.

There is far more than one Sun Xie. Behind every name here is a fresh life. At this moment, these lives are densely listed on the wall in the form of code names, like a silent accusation of blood and tears, which makes people's scalp tense.

If the cold air emanating from Zhou Qi's body had any substance, even Xu Chi could feel the cold air invade his body, like falling into an ice cave.

"The moths were also passers before. Because they failed to pass the pass, they were left here forever." Xu Chi's vocal cords were like taut strings, and every word was filled with forbearance, "They were deprived of their bodies, It became like this. Judging from the previous situation of the little moth, many people who turned into moths will also have their memories erased until they find their own names one day. Recovering memory means retrieving the truth. So, what kind of truth is it that makes the moths, who are originally compatriots, have to attack the aborigines on the inclined plane?"

Sun Xie didn't stay here much, he took off for the second time soon, and carried Xu Chi and Zhou Qi to the mother flower field.

But this time he was very careful not to fall to the ground, because there are many moths busy in the flower field at the moment.He landed on a giant mushroom not far away and got down.Zhou Qi and Xu Chi hid in the fluff on the top of his head.

At this time, a loud cry came.

Zhou Qi's heart trembled, his pupils trembled, it was the cry of a baby!

I saw a moth stopped in the center of a huge blooming female flower, and its four appendages were impressively holding a familiar swaddling baby!

The child was finally snatched by them!how come?The hiding place is obviously hidden!What happened to the natives?What happened to Dr. Ren and the girl surnamed Leng?Shouldn't everyone...

Qi and blood surged for a while, Zhou Qi red-eyed, raised his knife and wanted to rush out.

"We're in the wolf's den!" Xu Chi put his arm around his waist, "Go out now, and you will have nothing but death!"

"Then what to do!" Zhou Qi roared angrily, "These moths want to feed their children to flowers! And what's the matter with you, Sun Xie? You brought us here so fucking you want us to see this?"

Sun Xie nodded: "Woo Gu."

Following his nod, Zhou Qi and Xu Chi jumped up and down, one of them couldn't stand firmly, and almost rolled down hugging each other.

"Your uncle!" Zhou Qi pushed away Xu Chi who was on him, and became angry, he raised his knife and threatened viciously, "Fly over there now! I'm going to save the child, or I'll kill you as a moth!"

Sun Xie: "Ugh."

"What are you talking about? I can understand shit!"

"Ugh."

"You whine one more time?"

"Ugh."

"Damn, Xu Jiaojiao, don't stop me, I'll chop up this woogoo right now!"

Xu Chi who was standing eight feet away from him: "..."

Did I block it?

"He may mean to let us watch patiently." Xu Chi translated.

"Are you still watching? Look at the child's life..."

Before Zhou Qi finished speaking, the child's crying stopped abruptly.

The two looked over at the same time, and saw the snow-white stamens slowly unfolding in the center of the blooming mother flower, and a cradle-shaped white body cavity was pushed out, which was covered with soft down.The moth put the child in it very gently, and the child stopped crying immediately and became quiet.

A transparent film slowly covers the body cavity.

The child curiously stretched out his hand and pulled the thin but tough membrane, which was pulled out of various strange shapes by him.At this time, a nipple-like duct appeared in the film coat. Without teaching, the child could instinctively detect that there was sweet and full milk in it, so he opened his mouth happily, drank freely, and danced happily with his little hands and feet.

All the moths in the surroundings let out a "Wooooo" at the same time, including Sun Xie below him. This grand scene was like a sacred prayer ceremony.

Zhou Qi was almost dumbfounded: What's the matter, this flower can not only produce moths, but also help nurse children?

The child gradually fell asleep, the moths retreated one after another, and the mother flower closed its petals little by little.

Sun Xie used his forelimbs to draw a number on the white glowing surface of the mushroom: 6.

"In six days, this child will be reborn as a new moth?" Xu Chi's still calm voice came from beside his ear.

"Six days? Reborn? As a moth?" Zhou Qi repeated suspiciously, obviously he could understand every word, how could he fail to understand when they were connected into sentences?But this does not affect his focus, "What? As a moth?"

Sun Xie nodded slowly.

"You do this because you hope he can have human memory?" Xu Chi continued to ask, "Between human body and human memory, you think memory is more important, isn't that true? So you try to snatch the child back ?”

Sun Xie "wow": Yes.

Zhou Qiru listened to the bird's language, and was confused: "What are you two talking about? Can you translate it for the stupid idiot?"

"You guessed it a long time ago, Zhou Qi. You just don't want to accept it." Xu Chi sighed, "There are no newborn children. The children are passers who were only one step away from success but still died in the end. These unfortunate people, either Completely lose all the memories before coming to the Rubik's Cube, and transform into the muddle-headed natives in this level; or be captured by moths, restore the memory, and maintain the sobriety of humans from life to death, knowing the cause and the consequences, the price is , no longer have a human body."
