The Dead Zone: Maya Stela - C52

I looked on dumbfoundedly as two figures walked in. Elder Li’s back was straight as he stood there, effortlessly supporting Song Ping, whose face was covered in sweat and his white hair was trembling.

I started.

“Elder Li!” “Captain!” I called.

“Ai!” Song Ping immediately responded, he reacted and shouted: “Left side?!”

“Why did you come in?” Seeing the cloth shoes on Song Ping’s feet covered with a layer of red, I shouted, “Come over here! It’s fine!”

Song Ping was placed on the ground by Elder Li. The old Beijing cloth shoes on his feet had already been bitten off. Fortunately, the socks inside were thick enough. Elder Li had worn a pair of old leather shoes for who knows how many years. Some of the leather shoes had been torn off, but the inside was still intact.

Song Ping took in a deep breath. I turned around to look at Elder Li. His face was full of shame, but I didn’t know why he had such an expression. “Do you still remember the method I used to differentiate the maze?” “Yes.” I was wrong. ”

“Huh?”

It turned out that the direction of the mural depicted a fork to the right, so Elder Li subconsciously took a right, but he forgot that it was the opposite.

Looking from the bottom up, the entrance was naturally to his right, but he had forgotten that the direction was not the same. If one were to look at the frescoes, the correct direction would be to the left.

This was also a result of looking at the long-term effects left behind by Tuo Ben. Looking at Elder Li’s sighing face, I didn’t know what to say.

“So, this is a dead end.” Elder Li looked at the door behind him and exclaimed.

Elder Li’s observation was very meticulous. He immediately pounced towards the door, causing the word “die”, which I had pushed away, to appear on it.

I reminded him that the whole wall was covered with small words. When he saw them clearly and kept praising them for their supernatural work, he squatted down and changed the gauze on Song Ping’s hand. It was probably due to him using too much force while climbing the gauze was soaked in blood.

He straightened his back a little and let out another wail. I immediately felt that something was wrong, so I turned around. The back of his neck was cut open, all the way to his back. His body armor was also ripped open, but fortunately, his sweater wasn’t damaged.

“How did this happen?” I was scared half to death by that thin layer, and I suddenly thought of skinning. As he served him iodine, he was trembling with fear.

There was still some rust on the wound. When the iodine touched the wound, Song Ping shuddered and took a deep breath, “Elder Li realized that you walked in the wrong direction, and there’s only death in here. We tried to find a way in, and as I climbed the wall I heard a roar and a gash in my back. ”

“Split?” I wondered in my heart, but I did not know what to question, but I faintly felt that this wound was not like something I had cut myself, it was truly a little strange, I could not see even a scratch, but Song Ping did not need to say that he was panicking, so if he did not get it, or if he did have something, he did not know.

I laughed at myself. What is it? A ghost? “Chi!”

Perhaps Song Ping was so unlucky. Elder Li turned around and said, “Let’s go in.”

“No,” I told him what I’d observed, especially the black water. Elder Li had also seen the painting on the wall. It wasn’t as heart-wrenching as mine, he was just interested in the slow flow of the black water. For the time being, Song Ping can’t climb over the wall anymore. If I’m not careful, I think that his hand would be crippled, but I also don’t want to go in. The three of us are all here, and there’s nothing that can stop us from going back the way we came. Why are you so distracted by the uncertainty behind the door?

“Didn’t you want to go see the Divine Clubhouse? Why waste your time here?”

Glimmers danced in Elder Li’s eyes as he sighed, “No, no. This way is fine. I just want to take a look …” He insisted on going in. “You guys go back first. I’m already so old. There’s no harm in taking a look …”

I was about to say something else, when Elder Li walked to the door and peered behind it.

Just as I was about to continue persuading him, Song Ping suddenly tugged on my pants leg. When he saw me looking at him, he turned his face to the side.

I sat down beside him. He leaned close to my ear and whispered, “Elder Li …”

“Hmm? What’s wrong with me? ” Elder Li’s ears twitched. He actually turned around and smiled at us.

This old man’s ears were truly sharp.

Song Ping’s face instantly turned pale, “The back of Elder Li’s ears, do you know?” His eyes sparkled as he looked at Elder Li and said, “I wanted to say it from the start. Elder Li’s back is bent, but you’re not bent at all. Elder Li’s left foot is slightly turned outwards, but you’re walking normally …” His gaze swept over me like lightning. “I don’t think he is Elder Li at all.”

“How clever!” Elder Li’s voice suddenly changed as he slowly straightened his bent waist. He swept his eyes over us as he smiled and said, “I really am not.” “You brat, you’re not as stupid as what idiot Li says you are.”

Song Ping’s face instantly paled. Just as he was about to stand up on one hand, he bellowed, “Where’s Elder Li?” Old Song? ” I couldn’t help but ask.

This voice sounds a little familiar now, but when his back straightens up, a thought goes through my mind.

He was also Old Song’s master.

Song Ping looked at me and then looked at “Elder Li” who was standing there. His expression was erratic. It was unknown who he was asking: “… “Know him?” “Hehe, this little bastard’s eyes are sharp.” Elder Li walked over and patted my shoulder. “Do you still remember my old man?”

The moment the word ‘little bastard’ came out, the stone in my heart was completely lifted. “How could you …”

Elder Li and Elder Song had worked together before. Old Song was the type of person who worked with capable people and had worked with many projects before. The friendship between the two of them was deep. Old Song followed me all the way here. Last night, after Uncle Zhang dug it up, they went down to take a look as well, because regardless of whether it was the Gate of Life or the Gate of Death, it was impossible to enter with Old Li’s body. Not to mention leaving safely.

I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Why don’t you just come over? “Why would I suspect you? Why do you need to put on a face to scare people?”

“I’m used to it.” As he spoke, he touched his face. Suddenly, his face began to tremble violently, like veins bulging in the middle of his nose. Red lines began to crawl out of his nose.

After a few breaths of time, his face has returned to what I was looking at before. The clothes worn by Old Song were extremely inappropriate on him, so Old Song did not mind. A few red dots on his hands looked like rapeseed to Song Ping.

“It doesn’t hurt,” Eccentric Song said nonchalantly. “Let me tell you one thing, I must open this door. You won’t be able to survive here unless you go outside to the Maze right now. “If you follow me in, you might be severely injured, but I can at least keep both of you alive.” I’ll go with you. ”

“Me too! I’m just afraid that I’ll be a burden to you. ” Song Ping’s expression returned to normal, but his expression did not look too good, “The way back is already broken, we don’t even know where to go …” I’ll just follow you then. As long as you can survive, you can go out and treat your injuries. ”

“Let’s go.” Eccentric Song did not waste any more words. I helped Song He up, feeling a little disgruntled, but I couldn’t tell where the problem was. There was nothing wrong with Old Song’s words, there was no way to fake the identity he revealed just now.

Old Song said, “The door is open from top to bottom.” He pointed to the empty death.

Naturally, it was me who helped. Old Song held onto Song Ping steadily, and I used my fingers to grab onto that word and pulled downwards. At first, I didn’t move a single bit, but then I loosened my grip a little, as if some switch had been turned on.

I jumped back, and the door clanged open on the floor. A cold air clung to my heels.

I stomped my foot, and Song Lao got in first.

The moment the door descends, the black water on both sides is cut off. The black liquid that has already flowed through slowly gathers in the middle of the groove and decreases in size. As I push Song Ping forward, I can hear a buzz behind us. He climbed in quickly, took one last look at the flustered Buggy army and shut the door again with a bang.

It was extremely difficult for the door to be opened, but when it was closed, it broke the law and rose without me having to do anything. The buzzing behind me was cut off from the outside of the door. I heaved a sigh of relief and propped myself up on the floor. However, my hands were covered in black mucus, which was viscous to the point of being solid.

Eccentric Song’s flashlight shone everywhere. This place wasn’t big. I didn’t ignite my flashlight, so Eccentric Song’s light was sufficient.

There were steps all around him, all the way up to the top. It was as if we were standing inside an inverted four-sided pyramid.

The room was small and obscure, and there was nothing frightening about it. However, Eccentric Song’s expression suddenly changed. He took off his jacket and rushed to a corner, saying anxiously, “Quick! “Faster!”

Fast what? There was no need for him to say that I had already seen it. Light red smoke rose from all four mouths. I was stunned for a moment before I immediately took off my clothes and stuffed it into a corner.

I cursed silently in my heart as I took off my sweater and stuffed it in. I couldn’t stop it at all, so I got out through the gaps in the wool, causing Eccentric Song to shout out loud. He actually walked up the stairs, and the faint red fog had already started to spread out in front of us. I carried my bag on my back, using my hands and feet to climb upwards. I had a headache for an instant. The red smoke had already spread out and a warm liquid was flowing out of my nose. Elder Song’s fence was suddenly opened and he jumped in.

Stunned, I saw the clasp under the fence and jerked it up and crawled inside. When he went up, he found a new plane, connected on all four sides. In front of the mist, the fences seemed to be built out of thin air! The three of them lifted their legs and ran. It was unknown whether the faint red smoke had caught up with them in the darkness. I wiped it with my hand. It was full of blood.

Even though I was prepared, my heart was still in pain. Behind me, thick smoke suddenly rose up, and I held my breath as I ran. Song Ping was at the back, but he suddenly stopped and shouted, “Jump!”

He pressed the button with his hand and with a boom, a wall appeared where he had jumped. The red mist was blocked.

I heaved a sigh of relief, but my mood worsened, and the blood from my nose continued to flow uncontrollably, instantly soaking my chest, and my last autumn gown was covered in spots of blood. Elder Song was shocked, and immediately placed some worms in my nose, but under the washing of the blood from my nose, there were traces of feeling coming up the stream, which combined to make me feel creepy. Old Song pressed hard on my nose, and I only felt something rushing out from my stuffy nose, flowing out with the blood, and when he reached out subconsciously to touch it, it was actually a huge lump of blood, which I couldn’t break and slid to the ground.

“Sigh …” Eccentric Song took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wrapped it around a clot of blood.

“I saved you … “It seems like his death will be worth it.” “Dead?” I thought for a moment of the insects that had gotten into my nose.

“These are all 15 lines long …” “He followed me for 15 years …” Looking at my guilty expression, he sneered, “I helped you avert a disaster once, sucking in the poison that was already sucked in and the blood that was invaded into your stomach. Your nose will be fine for a while longer.”

“Oh, oh, good …”
