Car No. 8 can be simply skipped, because the owl has also dissected the corpse of a dead cat before, so this time he will not talk about the corpse of a dead wolf. The belly of the wolf turned its head and stared at Mr. Bad Wolf, that look was simply creepy.
The wolf wasn't afraid, and smiled at the owl.
Until the owl peeled the wolf from head to tail, and pulled out its heart, then the owl stared at the heart for a long time, and said: "This wolf committed suicide... No, or, it realized that there was something in its heart." thing, so I tried to get that thing out, so it died."
The Owl took out a blood-stained key from the wolf's heart.
The wolf over there didn't look at the owl, but looked down at his fingers.
The door of carriage No. 8 was opened by an owl, and now, carriage No. 7 was in front of them.
Dirty and messy like all odd-numbered cars, but thankfully, there doesn't seem to be anyone in car 7.
However, although there was no one in carriage No. 7, there was the sound of music coming from inside. It was a violin piece with an elegant and lyrical voice, and the elongated tune was played slowly.
Everyone walked into the No. 7 carriage one after another, and naturally they all noticed the violin music played in a loop.
Of course, after entering the No. 7 carriage, everyone also noticed another thing. They all smelled a sweet smell in the air, like a strong floral fragrance, but this smell can only be felt at the moment of entering the carriage. It smells obviously, after being in the compartment for a period of time, it seems to be used to the smell, so it becomes less obvious.
It's just that carriage No. 7 makes people feel a little drowsy.
"Let's go find it? Where did the sound come from?" The owl cheered up and said, his attention was still on the mysterious music first, so he walked towards the place where the music came from, and they quickly I found the source of the music, a music box placed on a small table.
A music box is a wooden box with a relatively retro shape. As long as you open the box, it can automatically play music in a loop. Inside the box is a mini vinyl record, the kind of disc that puts a small metal wire on a round disc. On the chip, a vintage piece that makes music when it is rotated.
The owl took the little music box, opened it and closed it, and the music started and stopped abruptly with his movements.
The sweetness in the air seems to be more intense.
The owl closed the box and looked at the bottom of it. There was a sentence engraved on the box: "Don't stop it, unless you want to die in a cold dream." The owl read this line, looked up at the crow next to it, and tried to Get his opinion. The crow has become much quieter since the incident of the two-headed snake, but fortunately, his desire for survival is still positive, saying: "Just do as above."
So the owl opened the box again, let the music play beautifully, and put the music box back in its original place. Then the owl said, "Let's go and see the door of this carriage."
So the owl and the crow went to look at the connecting door of the No. 7 car together. On the door, it reads: [There is a mysterious and terrible gas in the No. 7 car] [It can make you fall into an endless sleep]
[Only a music box can wake you up]
[But you can only find the key if you stop the music]
"If you stop the music, you can find the key." The crow said to himself.
The owl interjected: "But if we stop the music, we will die... Is that what you mean?"
"Is there anything special about that music? For example, if I find a mobile phone and listen to other music with headphones, don't I need to die?" Crow wondered.
"It's worth a try." Owl nodded, and said, "It depends on whether there are other things in this compartment, such as mobile phones and MP3 players. At least there must be a headset."
So the crow and the owl negotiated and took the black cat together to search the entire No. 7 carriage. They searched every corner and finally found a special place in this carriage—there is no electronic equipment.
"No mobile phone, no earphone, no MP3, no tablet computer, as long as it is an electronic device, there is nothing in this ghost place!" Owl opened a suitcase, which was full of clothes and several file bags. Things like pens and paper, and even funnily enough, Owl also found a... er, sex toy inside this trunk.
"It's terrible!" The owl closed the lid of the suitcase, turned to the crow and said, "It seems that we really don't have any equipment that can play music except for the music box."
"I think so too... After all, if there is something like MP3, this car will be great. Even if we can't use other music, we can also record the music from the music box and put it in the mobile phone or MP3. Listening with headphones, and then turning off the music box, can also make this car quiet..." The crow subconsciously bit his fingers and began to make some assumptions.
"I don't think this is a good idea. Obviously you don't know anything about music." At this moment, the wolf suddenly sat aside and spoke, and refuted the crow's idea.
"What do you mean?" Crow frowned at him.
"Have you ever heard of the famous killing song—Black Friday?" Bad Wolf seemed to have become a little calmer. In this melodious music, his tone was very gentle, and his attitude was completely different from before. He said this: "This song The creator of the tune played the tune on the piano in public, and when the tune reached its climax, someone in the audience pulled out a gun and committed suicide."
"Afterwards, no matter who played the piece, there will be similar incidents. The suicide may be the audience or the player of the piece. Then, this terrible tune was blocked, and people put it The original manuscripts were burned, and the recorded tapes and records were also wiped out, leaving nothing behind."
"But later, good people also went to study this song specifically. They said that the few syllables of 'Black Friday' are very special. The combination of them means 'suicide', so some listeners who are not psychologically firm will commit suicide under the hypnosis of this suggestion."
The evil wolf calmly introduced such a piece of music, raised his head to look at the crow and the others, and said with a slight smile: "I think the piece we are listening to now is also the same, a piece of music that can use the tune to hint at our hearts, even , the hints in its tune are a little stronger, it makes us ignore the deadly smells in the air, and keeps us awake."
"A car that dies when it sleeps?" Crow frowned and thought.
"Almost, even if there is any recording equipment in this car, if the song is not recorded accurately... I mean, if a few syllables happen to be missing, the song can't bring us this kind of Suggestion effect, and we'll fall asleep in this sweet smell in the air - and die."
"It seems that you have studied music." The owl stared at the wolf.
"Probably yes, I think I should be able to play the piano." Bad Wolf smiled.
"In that case, do you have any good suggestions?" The owl seemed hopeful, but his face was expressionless.
"Opinion? It's nothing good. When you closed the music box just now, none of us fell asleep immediately. I think it should be that it takes a while for the smell to take effect, and... our willpower can also guarantee us I won't fall asleep immediately, so I can only use this time to find the key."
The owl tilted its head and looked at the wolf with malicious eyes: "You are cooperating unexpectedly now."
The evil wolf smiled and said: "Of course, why do you always look at me with the eyes of wanting to kill me? It's terrible. I don't want to die so soon! I have to compromise a little bit."
"Oh! It's disgusting!" The owl stared at the wolf even more maliciously: "I want to kill you even if you kneel down and beg for mercy."
"Of course!" The wolf spread out his hands and made that kind of gesture towards the owl... as if he was expecting the owl to fall into his arms. His tone was unusually gentle, and he said, "Come on, you can kill me right now. …”
"Be quiet!" The crow said, interrupting the tit-for-tat confrontation between the owl and Mr. Wolf, his voice was hoarse and his face was gloomy.
The music in carriage 7 continues to linger.
The crow sighed, as if helpless: "Stop making noise, I just want to quickly find the key and get out, the smell of this carriage makes me want to vomit."
So the owl and the wolf finally calmed down a bit, and several people began to discuss plans. Because there is no other electronic equipment in this carriage, and they have searched every corner but did not see anything like a key, so they can only follow the prompts of that door.
The only way is to close the music box, quickly find the key before falling asleep, open the music box, and then take the key to open the door.
It seems easy to say, but it is a very troublesome thing to do.
"I don't know if that's the case, even if we're asleep it still takes a while to die, and if you turn on the music box during that time, there's still a chance we might wake up."
The crow guessed and said: "Sleep is a mechanism for human self-protection. If a human stops breathing during sleep, the brain will use nerve twitches to move your limbs in order to test whether you are dead, so some people will suddenly twitch during sleep. For a moment, it is the brain testing whether you are dead or not."
"That sounds terrible!" the wolf teased.
The crow glanced at him blankly, and continued: "We need a person with strong mental power, squatting next to the music box, others can find the key, and once someone is found lying down and falling asleep, that person will A music box can be opened to wake a sleeping person."
"That sounds like a good idea," said the owl.
