The air in Xiaolan's lungs was suddenly squeezed out.
The woman's voluptuous and bright face was suddenly deformed by countless bubbles. Xiaolan fluttered backwards. Qin Yin and Wen Ling held her hands, and the three of them began to float up quickly.
The woman's eyes followed them.
There is only the sound of flowing water in my ears, and there are only blurry and surging shadows in front of my eyes.
Xiaolan saw Qin Yin and Wen Ling stretch out their hands and explore the water.
Then, their hands were blocked by something.
Boom, boom, boom!
Qin Yin waved his fist and smashed it, making a dull sound.
Xiaolan held her breath and reached out to touch it.
It's ice.
The water surface is sealed by a thick layer of ice.
The three of them were sealed.
Qin Yin and Wen Ling knocked on the ice desperately, while Xiaolan covered her nose and mouth and lowered her head to look down.
Although the light of the flashlight could not reach them, Xiaolan could still feel a gaze cast on them.
The woman was still watching them.
Xiaolan moved her eyes back, Qin Yin and Wen Ling gave up. They shook their heads and looked at each other in panic while kicking in the water.
Xiaolan's breath-holding time reached the limit. She coughed twice in the water, and several mouthfuls of cold liquid were poured into her body in an instant.
Qin Yin lifted Xiaolan up, trying to find a gap between the ice and the water surface so that Xiaolan could breathe.
Xiaolan pressed her face against the ice, opening and closing her mouth feebly like a dying fish.
Lower your eyes.
That woman's gaze.
Keep an eye on yourself.
Xiaolan struggled to push away the ice and pointed downward.
Qin Yin and Wen Ling understood what she meant, and they looked at the stone lotus petals.
Xiaolan nodded.
There is no other way.
Have to go back.
The three of them descended again, and the woman was still floating in the middle of the petals, her dark pupils staring intently at Xiaolan.
They gathered around the woman and looked at each other.
Qin Yin raised his hand and waved it in front of the woman.
The woman's eyes remained motionless, still focused on Xiaolan.
Is it alive or dead?
It shouldn't be a living person, it's not scientific.
If it were said that a dead person materialized in an area, wouldn't it be...
Xiaolan suddenly realized.
This is the boundary!
She hurriedly reported this discovery to Qin Yin and Wen Ling.
This is not the Fire Lotus Mountain, this is simply a realm of the dead.
That's why they get lost again and again, even walking in circles, unable to find other companions, because they have entered a strange world and have entered other people's rules.
Qin Yin and Wen Ling tilted their heads and looked at her with half-understanding.
Xiaolan was very anxious and was about to change a set of gestures for the second time. At this time, the woman in the middle of the petals actually moved.
With soft and gentle movements, as natural as being stirred by water waves, the woman raised her right hand and reached out to Xiaolan.
The woman's palms were slender and snow-white, with a marble-like sheen. Her fingertips were facing Xiaolan, stopping only a few dozen centimeters away from her.
This gesture.
Like some kind of invitation.
She is inviting herself.
Qin Yin pulled Xiaolan back, and the woman's porcelain face moved slightly, revealing a smile.
Xiaolan also extended her hand.
Qin Yin grabbed Xiaolan's wrist and shook his head at her.
Xiaolan patted Qin Yin and Wenling on the shoulders, leaving them with a firm look.
After all, we have no other option.
After that, she quickly stretched out her other hand and grabbed the woman's palm before Qin Yin could react.
In an instant, the long hair floating around the woman was entangled towards the two people's clasped palms. Xiaolan felt a sudden push from the water behind her, and she fell into the woman's arms. Qin Yin could be vaguely heard.
After letting out a shout mixed with the sound of water, Xiaolan's vision was drowned in black.
The woman's hair was like some kind of vine, wrapping the two people hugging each other into a cocoon. Then, in front of Qin Yin and Wen Ling, the petals began to close.
Qin Yin grabbed the edge of the petals, while Wen Ling tore at the coils of hair tangled outside.
Doesn't help matters.
The petals are closed.
Before they could take any further action, there was a muffled sound in the water, and the petals began to fall.
Qin Yin and Wen Ling didn't even hesitate. They grabbed the edge of the petals and followed the stone lotus down together.
The water surface became turbid and they could no longer see each other clearly. The two of them hugged the closed petals and could only rely on the hands held together to confirm that the other person was still there.
sink.
Wen Ling's feet touched something solid, and a strong squeezing feeling came as they were crossing the underwater mud.
The breath was squeezed out of the body bit by bit by the sand. At the last moment when the two were on the verge of suffocation, light appeared.
red.
The color of blood.
The color of fire.
***
The fool looked at the man lying not far away and reacted for a while.
"He was...the one who went up the mountain with the pair of Porsche owners?"
"Yes!" Baomu nodded fiercely.
"Also...the owner of the hand that grabbed me just now?"
"That's right!" Baomu knocked on his head, "I was so nervous just now that I didn't notice. I was too stupid..."
The fool looked up at the sky and thought for a few seconds.
"Didn't you say that it was a skeletal hand that strangled my neck?"
"I don't know the specific situation, I can only smell the same smell as them," Baomu waved his hand, "When I distinguished the smell of the Porsche group, there were three of them, and then one of them suddenly disappeared, disappeared
That one is him."
The two of them walked towards the man cautiously.
"Can you tell whether he is alive or dead by smell?" The fool asked as he walked sideways.
"He smells..." Baomu frowned, "The ingredients are very complex."
"..."
The two gradually got closer.
No accidents occurred.
"Oh my god," the fool grinned and sighed the moment the man's appearance came into view, "In this situation, there is absolutely no way he is alive."
It was a male corpse with twisted limbs.
The male corpse was wearing a full suit, with all his limbs bent into unnatural shapes. In addition, the man's body was wrapped in several layers of transparent plastic sheeting. Several bags of preservative-like things could be seen in the plastic sheeting.
.
Fool and Baomu suddenly looked at each other.
"Throw the body away!"
The third person who disappeared, the pair of Porsche owners, simply went up the mountain to dump their bodies!
"I'm just telling you, no normal people would come here to play in the mountains," the fool yelled. "They secretly killed people at the foot of the mountain. They thought that no one would visit this barren mountain, so they came here to dump the bodies."
!”
But all said and done, the location was indeed chosen well.
Baomu nodded heavily, "That's why this person suddenly disappeared... because he was thrown off the cliff by them."
The answer to the mystery was finally revealed, and the two of them were very excited.
During the pause in the heated conversation between the two, a faint cry could be heard.
Lower your head.
The male body wrapped in plastic cloth began to cry.
