In fact, Shen Xing was worried when he first started carving his own cartoon wood sculptures.
He always felt that the works made by him had a certain degree of spirituality, but was this a belief born out of his love for his works as a wood carver, or was it the worry that naturally arose from Shen Xing's many encounters with anomalies? .
I'm afraid even Shen Xing himself can't explain this feeling clearly.
When he handed over his cartoon wood carving to Xia Hongyu, he felt vaguely uneasy, wondering if it would be lost somewhere in the future, or if it would be picked up by an anomaly and whether he could tamper with it.
But after such a long time, it proved that his worries were unnecessary. But if he was asked to make a prototype wood carving that was not cartoon-like but exactly the same as himself, Shen Xing was still reluctant. He always felt that it was a crime. Some kind of taboo.
But now in this situation, I have to do this. Even if I feel a little weird looking at my wood carving, I have to finish it, otherwise my life will be at stake.
The first time he carved a wooden sculpture exactly like his own, Shen Xing always felt strange. It wasn't until he placed the wooden sculpture on the wound and watched so much black poison being absorbed that he suddenly felt enlightened.
This wood carving is like a clone of myself, or a substitute.
Now, the wooden sculpture as a substitute is absorbing the black poison that originally belonged to the original body, and completely converting it into his own body.
I don’t know what will happen to my wood carving after absorbing the black poison.
Shen Xing guessed that there are three types. The first is that the wood sculpture absorbs too much black poison and may explode directly because it cannot bear it. The second is that the wood sculpture will not be damaged, but after the whole body turns black, it will remain like this until it slowly These black poisons can be completely removed, but this will take a long time.
The third situation is that after absorbing the black poison, the wood sculpture will mutate and become what Wang Zhi said... the seal!
Of course, it may also turn into something else unknown.
Shen Xing has no way of knowing what kind of combination process this is, but the final results are nothing more than these.
While quietly watching the blackness of the wound getting lighter and the color of his wood carving getting darker and darker, he was thinking wildly.
About half an hour later, Shen Xing's wood carving had completely turned black, but the black poison still flowed into the wood carving through the wound and did not stop, as if the wood carving was not really full at this time.
Shen Xing didn't make any move, he just observed. If the wood carving really couldn't absorb it anymore, it would always stop at a certain moment.
At this moment, the black poison that originally flowed to the armpits has disappeared, and the entire black poison-infected area has shrunk to the size of a palm, surrounding the knife wound.
Not only that, this piece of black poison is still shrinking.
Although the wooden sculpture placed on Shen Xing's waist is completely black, its color continues to deepen as time goes by, as if there is no end.
At this moment, Shen Xing has begun to pay attention. If there is any abnormality in the wood sculpture, such as cracks, instability, or a tendency to burst suddenly, he will immediately take it down and dispose of it properly.
After waiting for a moment, nothing happened as expected, but the wood sculpture became darker and darker, as if all the darkness in the world had gathered on the wood sculpture.
No one in the ward spoke. They all stared at the wooden sculpture blankly, and from time to time looked at the wound that was getting closer and closer to flesh color.
Another half hour later, an obvious stab wound was revealed in front of the three people, and the rich black color disappeared without a trace.
Suddenly, a line of blood oozed out along the wound. The blood was normal in color, and the gaping wound looked hideous and terrifying.
"The blood is flowing out and the wound is back to normal!" Xia Hongyu said immediately.
Feifei quickly went to the bedside and pressed the button to summon doctors and nurses.
Shen Xing took the dark wood carving away, but felt that it was cold in his hands, as if he was holding a piece of ice, and then temporarily placed it under his pillow.
When the doctors and nurses arrived, they were all stunned.
The current stab wound has become a normal trauma, and as long as it is treated according to routine, the weird black color before has completely disappeared.
The nurse brought the medical equipment for treating and bandaging trauma, while the doctor in charge of Shen Xing's condition asked him questions in an attempt to find the cause. However, Shen Xing's answer was that he took a few anti-inflammatory pills in the morning and noon, and did not do any other treatment or treatment. I understand why it suddenly faded away.
He, Xia Hongyu and Feifei had a tacit agreement not to reveal any rumors.
The wound was quickly treated and bandaged, and Chen Dong, Lu Yang and others from the special team also came after hearing the news.
After asking the doctor and looking at the photos of the wounds that had just been taken, the two asked Shen Xing as usual, but the answers they got were the same. There was nothing special about it. It was just that at a certain point in time, the blackness suddenly faded away.
"Maybe this infection has a statute of limitations." Chen Dong could only guess this.
But he soon reported to the Jingzhou Special Operations Headquarters that there was no need to order the grease with the highest known abnormality, because the infection here had lost its effect and no special treatment was needed.
Not long after, Gu Fei and Ding Wenying, who had received the news, also called and asked in detail. Since Chen Dong didn't know the reason, they had no way of knowing because they were far away.
Lu Yang guarded the hospital and issued a detailed treatment and report, while Chen Dong left to work on other cases. Then Lu Yang came over to say hello to Shen Xing and chatted with him for a while before leaving.
After everyone left, Feifei and Xia Hongyu had the opportunity to talk to Shen Xing.
"This matter is settled as it is. No one should tell it. Only the three of us know the secret." Shen Xing warned.
"Then what should you do with your wood carving?" Xia Hongyu said, "If it is inconvenient for you, just give the wood carving to me and I will find a way to destroy it."
Shen Xing shook his head: "It's okay, I keep it for other uses."
Leaving behind the wood carving that had turned completely black, Shen Xing actually wanted to observe the subsequent changes in the wood carving to see if it was consistent with his three guesses.
What's more, what he wants to prove even more is whether his wood carving can be used as a seal. (Note)
After dinner, Xia Hongyu took Feifei for a walk on the nearby street. Shen Xing had just finished treating the wound and was unable to get up, so he just lay in bed to rest.
He temporarily threw the dark wood sculpture into the black domain to hide it, took a look at the deeper space in the black domain, and then closed the black domain.
But just before it was closed, Shen Xing focused his eyes and saw that the wooden sculpture of the king that was originally placed in the black area suddenly trembled slightly.
At this moment, next to the king's wood carving, there is his own black wood carving.
Looking carefully, he saw a faint shadow in the king's wood carving being pulled out by an invisible force and slowly pouring into his own wood carving next to it.
Shen Xing was startled. At first, he thought the shadow was the shadow of Wang Zhi in the wood carving after being absorbed.
Because many abnormal wood carvings have been absorbed before, the abnormal black shadow will appear in them without exception, each with its own posture, but they all remain still, as if they will never disappear.
But after Shen Xing took a closer look, he discovered that the black shadow representing Wang Zhi was actually still in the wood carving of Wang Zhi, and had not been sucked in. However, the shadow that was sucked in was different from Wang Zhi's figure. Exactly the same, it was as if the abnormal soul or spirit of the king had been taken away.
In fact, his body is still in his own wood carving.
After absorbing Wang Zhi's abnormal spirit, his wood carving seemed not as dark as it was at the beginning.
But Shen Xing wasn't sure because it seemed like a visual illusion.
After closing the black realm, he lay on the bed and meditated for a while, thinking that after he absorbed these anomalies with wood carvings in the past, they were actually trapped forever and were not completely erased.
They may be slowly recovering their own spirit, which provides the so-called spiritual essence for other wood carvings like them.
However, it is unknown whether these absorbed anomalies can escape the control of the wood carving after reaching a certain mental level.
But I don't think it will be so easy to break away.
Now that his wood carvings can absorb all the energy they have accumulated in the wood carvings, there will be no big trouble. However, after returning home, Shen Xing will absorb all the other wood carvings placed at home and take a look.
He is now becoming more and more curious about his wood carvings.
She rested quietly in the hospital for a week. In fact, ordinary wounds only required Shen Xing to use the black tendon protective film, and they would scab and heal quickly.
But because he is in a hospital, he must follow normal procedures, otherwise too many secrets about him will be discovered by outsiders.
During this period, the special investigation team came twice and took a transcript for Shen Xing. Apparently they were still investigating why Shen Xing's wounds suddenly became normal.
Shen Xing also cooperated closely and described the abnormal situation of Wang Zhi in detail, except that he did not reveal that he had characteristics that made people forget his identity.
So all the points are focused on the mysteriously missing black sharp knife.
According to the request of the special task force, Shen Xing drew a picture of a black sharp knife for them. In fact, he also wanted to use the special task force to find out the origin of this sub-core weapon.
Until the day Shen Xing was discharged from the hospital, the special investigation team had no clue and reported the case to the Ningzhou Special Investigation Center.
But it seems that most of the results will be classified as what Chen Dong said, which is that the black liquid fades because the statute of limitations ends. This is also due to Shen Xing's good physical fitness, which can hold on until the statute of limitations ends.
During this period, there were no unusual incidents in the Baita Building, and after three thorough inspections by the special task force, it is planned to reopen in a week.
On the day Shen Xing was discharged from the hospital, he also went to the White Tower Building and started from the underground parking lot, carefully checking the floors above.
He mainly wanted to see if "who he is" would be here, because Compound Eyes and Wang Zhi appeared here almost at the same time, and because of the existence of the silk thread, this place was also proven to be a temporary abnormal type of mental disorder. of settlements.
Therefore, as the top of the γ-6 sequence chain, the anomaly "who is he" is likely to appear in this building.
In the process of searching, Shen Xing was also carefully sensing this anomaly, but nothing was found until he exhausted all his mental energy.
According to the prompts in the text message, "Who is he" is invisible to everyone except children.
When children see this anomaly, their first words are often "Who is he?"
Shen Xing is now unsure whether this abnormal sensing skill can detect this guy if he is within his sensing range. If its ability is to hide, it may have to meet certain conditions in order to sense it correctly.
Fortunately, Feifei is by my side now. If "who is he" appears, there is no reason why the child Feifei won't see it. Besides, Feifei is not an ordinary child.
After their injuries were almost healed (actually healed), Shen Xing suggested taking Xia Hongyu and Feifei to visit the scenic spots in Baita City for two days.
As long as Shen Xing is fine, Xia Hongyu is willing to play with him for a few days, and Feifei is even more happy.
After spending two days in Baita City, the three of them took the nearest high-speed train to Longyuan City, which is also in Longfu City, Ningzhou.
Longyuan City is Shen Xing's hometown. Since it is so close to his hometown, there is no reason not to take this opportunity to go back and see his parents.
When his memory was confused before, Shen Xing was not sure whether these parents were his real parents, but after meeting that guy face-to-face in his dream, he was now almost certain that when his memory was confused, he said he lived in Qishan University. Shi Laicheng's parents were the second-rate parents in another world, not his own.
This also explains why Laicheng does not have his parents in that memory, nor does he have a community in his memory, because they do not belong to this world.
Shen Xing can't tell whether the idiot is dead or crazy now, unless he goes into the depths of the dream to confirm.
But one thing he was sure of was that there was no way this guy could covet this body again, because he had already gained absolute control over the body.
…
Kuazhou, central city.
Next to the busy street, there is an old-fashioned commercial house. Most of the original owners of this house have moved out, and most of the people living here now are renters.
In one of the old rental houses, all the windows were closed, and there was a thick layer of dust on the window glass, but no one cleaned it, making the house dark even during the day outside.
At this moment, a dim light was on in one of the rooms of the rental house. The innermost wall of the room was densely covered with a large number of photos.
These photos include candid shots of people, buildings, and scenes of two or more people meeting each other.
In addition, the names of these people and the location of a certain building are written above the photo.
A middle-aged man is sitting in the room, with one hand on his chest so that the elbow of the other hand can be placed on it, maintaining a chin-supporting posture. His back is leaning on the back of a wooden chair, his eyes staring straight. Stare at the photos and the red lines connecting them.
In the bathroom at the other end of the outside, a faucet seemed to be unable to be tightened, and was dripping water regularly, one by one, which seemed extremely clear in this silent room.
After an unknown amount of time, a crawling sound came from the dark bathroom, accompanied by a low, hoarse howl.
A long-haired woman in white pajamas crawled to the bathroom door and slowly stood up. There was a hole in the surface of her clothes, showing that her abdomen was completely ulcerated, but it was empty and no organs could be seen.
The woman's complexion was purple and her blood-red eyes were bulging. She just stood there, staring at the small room with the light on.
The man who was staring at the photo in deep thought in the room sighed softly, stood up, turned around and walked out of the room, and glanced at the strange woman standing at the door of the bathroom.
He didn't show any fear, but murmured to himself.
"How long will you stay with me?"
If Shen Xing had heard his voice here, he would have recognized that this man had gone through the simple disguise of Zhou Dao.
