"Doraemon and Nobita took the time machine back to the past, wanting to change what has happened, or to find out the reason and the truth behind what has happened, but the truth is that what has happened is The results they have participated in after returning to the past, even if they are only spectators to observe the truth behind, for the future results, they have already participated in the past," Ke Xun said, looking towards Mu Yiran said, "Can I understand what I said?"
Mu Yi nodded: "The result of the matter is the result of the cause that has been affected."
"Yes," Ke Xun said, "So, maybe we have reached this step now, and it is already the result of doing everything we can after crossing back to the world of mountains and seas in the future. That is to say, whether we cross the Back in the world of mountains and seas, none of us can change the ending of the death we are about to face... Right?"
"Yes." Zhu Haowen said.
Ke Xun lowered his eyelids and sighed for a while, "So we're talking about it, but there's still no way out."
"Also, even if it doesn't require scientific instruments and scientific evidence, it will take a lot of time to manufacture a super weapon like Jiuding," Zhu Haowen said.
Ke Xun shook his head and waved his hands: "Okay, Mr. Howen, your task of attacking me has been completed, and you can call it a day. At this last moment, I want to cry in my arms for a while."
"You only have a few minutes." Zhu Haowen opened the tent curtain. It was already flying sand and rocks outside, and the whole sky and earth were filled with violent wind. Those tornado columns that must appear every night have been completely connected tonight. A piece of wind became a wall of wind.
Zhu Haowen walked out, and Ke Xun and Mu Yiran were left in the small tent.
The two looked at each other, a thousand words were stuck in their hearts at the moment, I don't know which sentence to choose first.
"My intuition has always been accurate," Ke Xun said with difficulty, his eyes were slightly red, "and this time... my intuition... we... we really can't live... anymore..."
"It doesn't matter, Ke Xun, it doesn't matter." Mu Yiran stared at him deeply, his voice was soft and gentle, "In this world, there may not be a couple who have experienced so many lives and deaths together like the two of us. , this is enough to be unforgettable, and enough to die without regrets."
Ke Xun was speechless for a moment, nodded with a choked voice, then stretched out his arms and hugged Mu Yiran tightly.
This was probably the fastest few minutes in his life.
Almost just in such a hug, a shallow kiss ended quickly.
Putting on the backpack, the two walked out of the tent holding hands.
Companions are also silently coming out of the other tents. Ke Xun didn't want to look at the expressions on their faces, and looked at the ghostly altar standing in the overwhelming storm.
"Are you ready?" In the violent sandstorm, it was impossible to distinguish whose voice asked.
No one answered, but it no longer mattered what the answer was.
"Let's go," said another voice.
Thirteen people strode forward with difficulty, as if they were carrying the ancient mountains on their backs, as if they were trudging through the empty millennium, and stiffly stepped into the storm that was about to swallow the sky and the earth.
Thirteen people walked silently towards the altar, and the dark figures were filled with endless silence, despair, and sadness.
Such a violent sandstorm almost wanted to uncover a layer of the ground, but it seemed to be blocked by some force, unable to destroy the thirteen figures.
It seems that there are two tit-for-tat forces fighting in the wind. One wants to swept away these thirteen people and swept them away from this terrifying valley of death, while the other tries their best to keep them behind. , opened the way for them, and even pushed them behind him, pushing them all the way to the foot of the altar.
"Climb," someone said.
But no one wants to act first.
"There's no time..." Someone else said, "If you hesitate any longer, after dawn, this world may be the world of demons."
Still no one moved.
"Wait a minute," Ke Xun said this time, "Wu You, look at this altar by looking at the bones."
Wu You's voice was hoarse and slightly responsive.
After a while, I heard her say: "I can't see anything... just rocks..."
"Then what about the wind?" Ke Xun pointed to the place where the storm was the sharpest, most intense, and most violent in the distance.
Wu You screamed in shock and fear: "A lot of - a lot of strange things - the wind is full of - it's terrible! It's terrible-"
"What are they like?" someone asked.
"I can't tell - I can't describe it - it's just - it's so scary that you want to die on the spot -" Wu You covered her eyes, squatted down and hugged herself forcefully, and then burst into tears.
"It's the demons, they're here." Shao Ling said in a hoarse voice, "Let's go up, there's no time left."
"We—we don't have to die—" Li Xiaochun also burst into tears, "Didn't ghosts and humans coexist in the Shanhai Age! Just let them out, we are no longer ancient humans, we have high-tech Well, we'll use infrasound to deal with them when the time comes!"
"Don't be delusional," Zhu Haowen said coldly, "Countries in the world have long started to study infrasonic weapons and want to invest in wars between humans. So far, no country has completely succeeded in research, nor will they wait until human research is successful. Extinct the human species!"
"No way!" Li Xiaochun roared, "Humans in the Mountain and Sea Age have not gone extinct!"
"That's because no human beings can make infrasound waves in that era!" Zhu Haowen looked at him coldly, "But when the Gao Yang clan suggested that Dayu built the Jiuding, do you think the demons would tolerate the existence of humans
"Humans are used to being the master of the world, and will they allow demons to usurp the throne and make themselves the target of being hunted and preyed on
"Humans will definitely research super weapons with the goal of exterminating demons, and demons will also madly kill humans with the goal of exterminating human beings to avoid future troubles. So do you think that demons kill people fast, or do humans study infrasonic weapons fast
"Look up at the storm in front of you. This is the ability of demons. How long do you think it will take for a storm of this magnitude to sweep the earth? How many human beings can survive such a storm?"
Li Xiaochun knew that everything Zhu Haowen said was reasonable, and his unwillingness and anger made him roar heart-to-heart, grabbed the submachine gun on his body, and fired frantically towards the distant place where the storm was raging.
The sound of gunshots reverberated in the storm and surrounded by the mountains. Ke Xun was afraid that he might accidentally hurt his companion, so he stepped forward and pressed him down, but he didn't notice that Mu Yiran suddenly turned around and came towards the crowd when they entered the valley. look in the direction.
There seemed to be a glimmer of light in a trance, but after waiting for a closer look, it was no longer visible.
"Calm down," Ke Xun pinched Li Xiaochun's arm until cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "If you do this, you won't do anything, calm down and think about it. You didn't decide to go to the board before. Did you go to the altar? If you regret it, you can, I don't force you, you can leave here, no one has the right to force you, calm down first, Xiaochun, do you hear me?"
Li Xiaochun softened and cried.
No one opened his mouth to persuade him or comfort him. At this time, any kind of words are powerless, and no one can help others to make any decisions. Whether it is life or death is in one's own thoughts.
After a long while, Li Xiaochun wiped away the tears on his face, with a strong nasal voice, he said hoarsely: "I'll go."
Li Xiaochun's entanglements and struggles are also everyone's entanglements and struggles. Maybe everyone hopes that he can say "I want to leave here", just like he can represent everyone, it seems that this will make everyone firm immediately. The determination to leave, whether the world is born or destroyed.
And Li Xiaochun's decision also seemed to represent everyone's decision. He was hesitant and struggling, and when the word "I went up" landed, he was also firmly smashed to one end of the scale, and There's no chance of it ever happening again.
Inexplicably, everyone felt relieved.
It's just, this tone is also what everyone is trying to support, and the last breath is angry.
Now, it's gone.
"Let's get ready," Ke Xun said calmly to everyone, as if he was going to a game with his teammates that we knew we couldn't win, "Yi Ran and I climbed up first, and when we reached the top, put the rope Throw it to the other side of the altar, and a few of you will go over to order the ropes... In short, follow the steps we discussed earlier."
Saying that, without waiting for everyone's response, he took the lead and climbed onto the roof of the car.
Mu Yiran then turned it up, and the two leaned the ladder frame against the altar wall, and after reaching the top of the ladder, they began to climb up with their bare hands.
In the process of climbing, Ke Xun still had the heart to say a few words to Mu Yi: "When those seniors who lived in ancient times came here, they also climbed up with their bare hands? Their equipment is definitely not as good as ours, right?"
Mu Yiran climbed in front of him, waited for him for a while, and answered him by the way: "Maybe they have their own ways, don't underestimate the ancients, the people who can get through the illusion in the painting and finally find here according to the clues are definitely not People of average ability and ill-consideration."
"That's right." Ke Xun didn't say more and climbed to the edge of the altar together with Mu Yiran.
The rope was thrown to the other side of the altar. Someone caught it and tied it to the car. The rope was tied with a string of nooses, forming a set of rope ladders. People below could step on the noose to climb up.
Yue Cen was tied behind her by Li Xiaochun, abandoned the wheelchair, and took a pair of crutches. Although it may not be used for a while, she said that she did not want to sit on the altar before she died.
Thirteen people, unwilling and unwilling, finally came to the edge of the top of the altar together.
Luo Yu and Wu You cried so hard that they almost fainted.
Everyone hangs by the altar and looks at each other. It seems that at this time, as long as one person says "let's go, don't die", there will be an immediate response from everyone, and then they quickly go back to the ground, get in the car, and don't look back. escape from here.
But no one could say that.
No one was willing to take the lead in saying the "let's go" the curse.
Thirteen people looked at each other, silent, breathing hard and crying helplessly.
Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone selfishly and greedily controlled their less and less lives.
Until the raging storm around, like bubbles emerging from boiling water, strange and terrifying figures gurgled outwards, they were wrapped in a wind membrane, and they were about to burst out.
Ke Xun gritted his teeth and shouted, "Guys, do you have any last words to say? This is the last chance!"
"—God! In my next life, you must let me be reborn as a rich young master!" Li Xiaochun shouted piercingly.
"Dad! Mom! I'll be your daughter in my next life!" Wu You cried and shouted.
"In the next life, give me a home." Fang Fei said word by word.
"Parents—Dongzi is not filial, here I will kowtow and say goodbye to you two elders—" Wei Dong cried, banging his head against the altar wall.
"I hope that in the next life, I can live a normal life..."
"I don't want to die—"
"I love you mom and dad..."
"May it end here forever."
"It's a pity, but... so be it..."
"Goodbye, friends."
"Goodbye, world."
"Yan Ran, I love you."
"I love you."
"goodbye."
"goodbye."
…
"Come on." Ke Xun said.
Thirteen people stretched out their arms and legs and turned to the altar together.
