"Xiao Sun, why are your hands so thin? It's not easy to find someone with a good tone."
Cai Gen saw that my grandson Rong's head rolled under the pickup truck, and he felt angry for a while.
Xiao Tianmao was so discerning. He dodged and rushed under the pickup truck, trying to pick up his head, just in case he wasn't dead.
As a result, when I went under the pickup truck, I saw the mummy of a child. He pulled it out by his clothes and placed it in front of Cai Gen as if he was taking credit.
"Master, this one is not dead. Just ask this."
Cai Gen looked at the child's mummy and felt pitiful. This was too cruel. He was still a child, right?
Judging from this size, even if it is not a mummy, it is not very tall.
Carefully put the mummy on the cover of the pickup truck and assume a sitting position.
"Xiaotian, how do you judge that he is not completely dead? Why didn't I see it?"
As soon as Cai Gen asked, the child's mummy started to move its mouth.
A few words were squeezed out, but Cai Gen didn't hear them clearly.
Put your ears very close to understand.
"Through the Looking Glass"
What does it mean?
The moment Cai Gen heard it clearly, he still didn't understand what was going on. It was like a piece of black cloth had covered himself.
Then I felt wet and a little hot around me.
I stretched out my hand and wiped it for a long time, but I was soaked in water, scalding boiling water.
Oh my gosh, isn't this the place Zeng Tiejun visited?
Why did you get here?
It was definitely not a dream, because Cai Gen's control over his body had not disappeared, and Nunu's form appeared with a thought, resisting the scalding boiling water.
After searching around for a long time, I finally found the strong miner's lamp. I knocked it hard on the stone and it turned on again.
At this time, what caught Cai Gen's sight was indeed the pool of boiling water, with five-colored oil films floating in it and steaming water vapor.
Not far from Cai Gen, there was Zeng Tiejun, whom Cai Gen met for the third time.
Fortunately, he still had his clothes. Even though his body had swelled and enlarged, Zeng Tiejun still maintained his human form. But looking at him, he looked extremely miserable and a little bit breathtaking.
All the facial features have been displaced, and there is a dazzling paleness, which is the luster of cooked meat.
Cai Gen used Nunu's form to stabilize his mind several times before he screamed.
"Are you here again?"
The words were not said by Cai Gen, so they must have been said by Zeng Tiejun, but his mouth did not move.
Or maybe the light is dim and you don’t see it?
Cai Gen felt that it would be better to pretend not to hear. Is the other party's state really suitable for communication?
Relying on the memory from his dream, Cai Gen looked at the direction where the horns were buried.
In the dream, Zeng Tiejun's soul was finally sucked away by the horn.
Therefore, the horn must be a part of Kui Niu, and it is also the key to the transformation of the wife into a cow.
Since I don’t know why I got here, it’s more important to take a look at the horns first.
After searching along the wall for a long time, he still couldn't find the horn. Cai Gen was very disappointed.
If there are no horns, then this is not a dream, is it reality?
No, Zeng Tiejun has been taken away by the rescue team. Why is there still one left soaking here?
It was neither a dream nor reality. The ice-snowy and clever Cai Gen understood it instantly.
Then the third possibility is an illusion. Has Tamamo used it on herself?
Jing Hua Shui Yue, according to the literal meaning, the moon is thrown into the mirror-like water, producing a reflection.
So according to this group of people's practice of naming spells, it should be a projection of my consciousness.
Why can’t I forget this Zeng Tiejun?
The last time Tamamo's illusion was broken, it was through Naqi's force.
This time I am alone in the illusion, how do I break it?
Cai Gen touched behind him. Fortunately, the bone-cutting knife was still there, which meant that his bottom line was suicide.
With confidence in his heart, Cai Gen decided to work hard. What if he could get out by relying on his own intelligence?
"Zeng Tiejun? We are quite destined, how do you feel?"
Cai Gen's original intention was to get close to each other so that they could communicate with each other later.
But saying this sounds a bit like taking pleasure in others’ misfortune?
Whoever is boiled in water will not feel better?
This is more embarrassing than asking a crab why you are so popular.
Just as Cai Gen was about to change his words, Zeng Tiejun actually replied.
"I think it's okay. After the nerves are cooked, I don't feel the pain anymore.
There is only this endless despair, getting more and more desperate, do you feel it?"
This sharing of feelings made Cai Gen's hair stand on end. A little empathy brought back the memories of those nine hours.
That time, I immersed myself in those nine hours with the old man selling bean buns, and completely experienced Zeng Tiejun's despair.
How do you describe that feeling?
I'm really desperate and feel like I've lost everything.
The goal of life, the beautiful memories, the yearning for the future, and finally even my own body were lost.
Cai Gen smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Well, I feel it, and I deeply sympathize."
"Hey, if you really felt it, you wouldn't sympathize. You would be in despair with me."
Continuing this topic is obviously not constructive, so Cai Gen thinks we should change the channel.
"Zeng Tiejun, do we have any causal relationship? Why are you either in my dream or in the projection of my consciousness?"
"Because I am desperate, I am the most desperate person within your range of perception.
My despair is your nourishment, the food you need to survive.
Therefore, my despair attracts you, nourishes you, and makes you thrive."
When Cai Gen heard this, he was horrified. Looking back on the past, he was nourished by despair. This reason appeared more than once or twice.
When I was at Naiman Bridge, I was attacked in despair by the little girl who cut up corpses. It was as if I had been injected with chicken blood.
Another time, in the underground pool, I was nourished by the despair of those greedy mummies. It was also very refreshing, like recharging a battery.
Today, Zeng Tiejun brought up this issue again. What does it really have to do with negative emotions like despair?
There are many unknowns in the body, and Cai Gen still has no clue, so he can only bear them passively.
It doesn't matter what it is, I never have the luxury of understanding it.
This seems to have opened a window for Zeng Tiejun, a window through which he can peek into his own secrets. This is a rare opportunity.
"Come on, brother, tell me carefully, how does despair attract me, how does it nourish me, and how do I grow?"
"Shouldn't you ask me why I'm so desperate?
More people die every day, why am I so desperate?"
Cai Gen feels that no matter what you say, it’s fine. As long as you say it, it’s the information you need to know, so there’s no need to be picky.
My own questions are mainly for guidance and have no practical significance.
"Sure, tell me, how do you manage to be more desperate than others?"
"Because of you, all because of you, the source of all my despair is you."
What's the point?
Cai Gen was said to have been deceived.
"Why because of me? What did I do?"
"Because you need despair, so I can only despair."
It's over, the thinking cycle has been closed. If you continue to ask, you can go to the end of the world.
At that time, it will be Cai Gen's turn to despair.
