Xin Wu was thinking something bad in his heart, and just as he was trying to gain some space for himself, a "mixed-flavored" chemical attack that was mixed with the strong smell of long-haired livestock, urine, and blood suddenly struck. This smell was very... It was so powerful that it directly took his consciousness to another world, while his body gave up its struggle and fell limply, never moving again.
With his consciousness vague, Xin Wu felt like he was wandering in the "ideological struggle" of whether to completely drift away from this "Hu Tian Hu Di". After hesitation, he decided to fall back into the body of this little "Hu Ren child".
When I opened my eyes again, I no longer saw the rough burlap pieces of cloth with "big holes and small eyes" in front of me. Instead, I saw a tall coarse stone wall lying in front of me. Looking left and right, I saw little boys about the same size as myself. , lying in a row on the left and right, their hands tied with iron chains and strung together, and their feet were also in groups of three or five, all "sharing" a long wooden "foot shackle" to serve.
The place where they were staying seemed to be a long corridor, which could just accommodate all the children. It was only an adult's foot away from the tall stone wall in front of them. Looking up along the stone wall, there is a dome structure. This stone wall and the top are integrated - this is basically a "cave". The so-called "stone wall" is the body of the cave, and they are staying in it. This "room" was actually dug out later.
Most of the children were asleep, hugging each other, some were still awake, their little bodies curled up in a ball alone, and some were sobbing secretly.
At the end of the aisle, the big fat man guarding them was lying on a wooden table near the door. The flame of a small oil lamp on the table was being carried by his long or short snores with extremely uneven rhythm. The incoming airflow made the light flicker and flicker, and the flames swayed. It was obvious that most of the children were asleep, and their figures, especially the shackles, The black silhouette of the chain seems to be alive, and the density of the "blockade" is increasing crazily, while the children, seemingly in their sleep, are desperately dodging and struggling, trying to escape from here.
The lighting is very interesting, and you can use light and shadow to perform your own fictional plot.
Xin Wu judged that it should be around midnight.
"Bang!"
Xin Wu subconsciously raised his head and touched his face. The chains tied to his slender wrists collided with each other and made an "ear-exploding" sound - it was really too quiet here. This sound was quite harsh to his ears. Fortunately, it did not sound like an "ear-exploding" sound. The big fat guard in the distance woke me up.
After making sure that the guards hadn't noticed him, Xinwu was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe, and finally he could breathe out slowly.
He was just about to retract his feet, but found that his feet were stuck tightly in the small holes of the wooden shackles. In addition, there were two people on the left and right who were also shackled together, so he couldn't pull them at all, so he had to tighten the iron on his wrists. Chains, so that they don't make any sound, compromise and let the whole body move down, move the butt down so that the straightened knee joint can change the angle, bend the legs, relax the muscles of the inner legs, then The sore feeling in my buttocks was slightly relieved.
The faint and faint cry suddenly disappeared with Xin Wu's movements. The crying little boy who was trying to "pretend to be asleep" disappeared as if he could not sleep. In this row of sleeping children, with the dim and swinging lights, there was no way to find them.
Xin Wu gently stretched his neck, looked around, then lay down again, widened his eyes, and stared at the dome directly above. The flames did not give up any corner, and he painted on the dome. He kept performing ferocious equipment projections.
"Oh! It's sloppy, it's sloppy! I really didn't choose the 'landing' location and identity this time!"
Xin Wu comforted himself that this was just a dream. If it doesn't work and he doesn't like it, he can go back to sleep and leave!
The strange thing is that the eyes he tried to close would open repeatedly uncontrollably, and his mind was completely awake, with no trace of sleepiness at all!
"It seems that this 'journey' is also the only way to go, and we have to face it seriously. Well, as long as you can't die, just play with them."
Xin Wu cheered himself up, with an attitude of "Cynical, I'm just here to have fun!" He could be more or less "Ah Q" to prevent himself from being frightened by the predicament in front of him. .
It was late at night, and the surrounding rows were full of people, but the air in the cave did not seem to be lacking in oxygen. This was thanks to the broken wooden door, which was being beaten by the strong wind, constantly changing the air here from the gaps. Breathing in the brand new air full of "sand and dust", the wind leaked in, swirling and turning in the room, and once the children's sleeping postures were blown into a shrunken "egg" version.
There were no quilts covering the children at all. They were all wearing the clothes from their respective homes when they were first captured. Many of them were torn and in a mess, just like a group of little refugees who had been robbed on the road to escape. look.
"Silk---"
Xinwu was also chilled by the new gust of wind. He couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air from between his teeth, trembled all over, and shrank his whole body into an "egg" shape to protect his core body temperature.
Now that it was cold, I couldn't sleep even more. Xin Wu looked at the end of the "walkway" room. It seemed to be much wider and higher.
Based on experience, Xin Wu estimated that the dome above their heads would be no more than 1.6 meters above the ground, making it very suitable for children; but the space at the end was obviously not just for an adult to walk on. Yes, the light energy on the fat guard's table was easily diluted by the space there, as if it were thrown into a huge black hole, unfathomable.
The wind outside the cave was very loud. When entering the front room of this "black hole", it went around in a big circle before a small part of it blew into this room. Therefore, although it was still very cold, the children's body temperature was relatively high. They are all crowded together in a row, and the space is extremely small. The room temperature at this time seems to be more than ten degrees, which is still within the tolerable range.
"Wu...wu...Wu Wu...Wu Wu Wuwu——"
The wind seemed to be playing a symphony of "Symphony of Destiny". When it was discovered that it had finally reached an audience that could appreciate it, it blew even more vigorously, carrying sand in its mouth and carrying a more ups and downs and more exciting rhythms. and melody, trying their best to make the scene as great as possible.
"I really thought the second senior brother was coming!"
Although Xinwu was not in the mood to listen to this kind of "serenade by the wind", the wind didn't think so, and kept displaying its power and skills, forcing Xinwu to focus all his attention on the flames, jumping to the demonic dance, and successfully My mind shifted to using my ears to feel the special information contained in this "strong wind".
Except for the scene at Gao Laozhuang in "Journey to the West", Xin Wu could not feel any pleasure from the epic "serenade" of this wind "symphony", let alone understand such a wild wind. By association, this wind What message were you desperately trying to convey to him?
Finally, the climax of the night wind symphony came. The broken wooden fence door at the entrance of the cave was finally blown into pieces by the most powerful blow of the strong wind. The broken wood pieces flew onto the fat back of the caretaker, knocking him Wake me up from my sleep.
The small oil lamp on the table was blown over to the ground, and the poor little flame had to end its performance and was blown out.
The cave became completely dark. Only at the entrance of the cave, the strong wind rushed in with the dim light outside. The children were all awakened, and suddenly they cried and screamed.
