"My God! What's going on here? Is this thing a plant?"
"The damn cage is broken! Long live the plants!"
"Damn! I tried my best to get through twenty prisons, but every time I failed, and I was locked deeper every time, why didn't I think of using this method?"
They were lucky not to die, but most people were still affected by the poisonous gas a little bit, in addition to the symptoms of oxygen intoxication, and they were bumped up and down by the murmuring straw bales, and many people suffered from varying degrees of "motion sickness". "Phenomenon.
Just after the Whispering Grass broke the prison, it was silent at first. After people woke up one after another, I didn't know who was the first to speak. In short, people's voices came one after another on the vines.
"Hey? Big brother! Is that big brother you? Am I going to die? Why do I seem to hear the familiar voice of big brother?" Another voice followed hesitantly.
"Emma! Is that Joseph? I seem to hear your voice too!" The rough male voice who said he had escaped from prison twenty times before appeared again, and this time he spoke again with disbelief.
"It's me! Big brother! After you came in, I also tried to find a way to get in. At that time, I heard that you were locked on the second basement floor, and I happened to be locked on this floor. I thought it would be easy to meet, but... What prison did you break out of!"
"I'm not worried about our mother's body, I want to go back and have a look~"
"You don't need to look, I came in just to tell you that her old man is fine!"
"Ah... so you came in?"
"Um… "
Someone actually performed a happy meeting scene. Although the dialogue was a bit embarrassing, but listening to everyone's ears, they felt a little emotional, but—
"But wait, are you right next to me, bro? I'm... heck! I don't know where I am now!"
"I can hear the sound, it should be very close, right? I know where I am, I can see the light, and I can see the snow. The air is very fresh, but it's a little cold, Ahe!"
More and more people joined the conversation. As each person provided more and more clues, everyone couldn't help but find out which layer they belonged to. Even if the vines grew fast, it would not be completely disrupted. Their original floor positions, their current positions are in principle distributed according to the original number of floors, but they can hear each other's voices, and it is none other than the five flowers that bind their vines!
These vines can actually achieve the sound transmission function to a certain extent!
However, this sound transmission function also has certain limitations. For example, the two people who can talk should generally be near a vine, even if it is a little further away, but it cannot be too far away.
The thicker the vine, the better the sound transmission, the thinner the vine, the poorer the sound conduction, and there will be noise.
The vines tied them too tightly, and most of them were weak due to inhalation of bad gas, so they couldn't do anything else, so everyone just hung up and chatted.
Some people were chatting, some were trying to break free from the vines and waiting for an opportunity to escape, and some were just looking at the ice and snow outside, just watching, motionless.
This is what the vast majority of people are doing now.
And in the narrow elevator room—
"Xiaomei..." Ronggui whispered Xiaomei's name tightly bound by the vines.
Thanks to the various analyses Xiaomei gave him before, after the incident, Ronggui was the most calm among all the people present.
But in fact, it was only calm on the surface, but he was very panicked in his heart.
He also had a chip Xiaomei gave him in his hand. According to Xiaomei, he could use it when things became too much for him.
Yet he didn't want to use it at all.
Maybe it was Xiaomei's expression when she handed it to her... He didn't want to use this chip at all, he always felt that once he used it, he would never see Xiaomei again.
I can handle it, I can do it - saying aloud to myself, Ronggui dragged the freezer with Xiaomei and ran desperately to the elevator.
Anyway, he is a robot now, anyway, Xiaomei's body has been packed in the most advanced freezer, and now he just wants to go home.
Go back to his and Xiaomei's home here.
He knew that if Xiaomei finished the arrangement, she would definitely go back there.
Xiaomei will definitely go there to determine his situation. I don't know why, but Ronggui felt that way.
Then he carried Xiaomei and ran towards the elevator.
In the process of escaping, Ronggui vaguely saw the back of the man, the man who bought his body, but...
Without deviating the slightest bit in the other's direction, Rong Gui resolutely took Xiaomei's body into the elevator.
Fortunately, he was one of the first people to realize that something was wrong and hurried to take the elevator. Besides, no one else would stupidly press down on the elevator. The elevator started with him and Xiaomei.
Isolating the screams outside, the elevator was quiet.
Only he and Xiaomei were left.
The elevator door opened.
Just when Ronggui was about to take Xiaomei to leave the elevator and go home, he realized that the originally empty corridor outside had long been occupied by huge vines. The moment the elevator door opened, he was eager to find new growth space for vines. Quickly rushed towards him and Xiaomei!
Ronggui immediately released a new Whispering Grass on himself and Xiaomei—
Not for oxygen, he just asked this Whispering Grass to tie him and Xiaomei's freezer together first.
As Xiaomei said, Whispering grass has extremely strong clinging properties, and it will wrap up anything that can cling to during the growth process.
Ronggui and the freezer containing Xiaomei's body were firmly tied together.
The bundles were so tight that even the newly arrived Whispering Grass could not separate the two of them.
Because it was a robot, Ronggui soberly witnessed the whole process of the crazy growth of the vines.
Located on the 999th floor deep underground, he had no idea what was going on outside.
In fact, at this time, he was not in the mood to pay attention to what happened.
Only the name Xiaomei remained in his mind.
"Xiaomei..."
"Xiaomei..."
Like a malfunctioning robot, only the name Xiaomei remained in his mind.
Mechanically, he repeatedly called Xiaomei's name.
until-
"heard it."
In the darkness, he heard Xiaomei's voice.
"Xiaomei! Where are you!" Ronggui exclaimed excitedly.
"...I don't know, it's probably in a very narrow place." The deceiver is actually still in the ventilation duct. No matter how sturdy the body is, it can't resist the wildly growing murmur grass. After rushing through a few corners, Xiaomei's body... In the end, only one head was left.
Ah... I never thought that I would end up in such a situation, with only one head left, or an incomplete head, the imaging system is broken, the sound system is broken, can't see, can't hear, Can't make any sound either.
However, Xiaomei was surprised to find that she didn't regret falling into such a situation.
When he was taken to an unknown place by the torrent of vines, he was still in the mood to think: If Ronggui's disease is not cured, is this the state that awaits him
This is too scary. Such a beautiful voice should not be unheard of. It is great to be here and to be able to cure Ronggui's illness.
Trapped in the dark pipe, at this moment, Ashhivi Messertal's heart was filled with happiness.
Satisfaction, happiness not obtained in any memory.
He thought that Ronggui should have escaped. Before leaving, he gave Ronggui a chip. The chip with the behavior mode was set. After inserting the chip, Ronggui would go to sleep for a short time, and then the program in the chip would go to sleep. Start, it will automatically analyze the current situation, and then leave here quickly with Ronggui. After it is safe, the chip will release a notification to itself, informing him that he can "transfer" back to the body.
Ronggui's body has been cured, and they will return to their own bodies together next.
Ah... It was the first time that he had such great expectations of returning to his original body. Their bodies had been in a freezer, so when he woke up, he could hold the honorable ones. Where's the hand
He thought about it for a long time, the touch of that hand.
As long as it's just a short time, he wants to use his body to be with the real honor.
Then, let his body slowly become mechanical or something, it doesn't matter.
He is already familiar with the touch of machinery and is used to its convenience. It is good to let a person who is used to go back to the place where he should stay. There is nothing to regret.
only-
Where does this huge, almost real sense of sadness... come from
He thought that he could abandon his body, and the ending was the same every time, and he himself had already decided that it was his own destiny.
However, after meeting Ronggui, watching Ronggui cherish his body so much, watching Ronggui also cherish his body, listening to Ronggui Meimei's vision of the life after the two return to their own bodies together in the future...
Are there expectations
Confused by such a beautiful idea, are you looking forward to happiness in the future
This time, he was unwilling!
However, no matter how unwilling you are, you must accept your fate. He knew in his heart that his body had undergone changes in the past few days, and the uncontrollable awakening would come to him. It was nothing at first, but as time passed, various symptoms would gradually come to him. .
Not a single exception.
Maybe that was his fate? No matter how many times it is repeated, he will eventually usher in his own destiny.
Perhaps, this is also the fate of the times.
In the darkness, Ashhivi Messertal fell into contemplation.
It was at this time that he heard Ronggui's call.
One after another, there was a noise at first, but it became clearer later.
"I heard." When answering the other party's words, Xiaomei's heart was full of uncertainty.
He almost thought that Ronggui's voice was a dream of his own.
"Ah! Xiaomei!" Immediately, he heard Ronggui's surprise louder.
The sound is clear, not a dream.
"Is it the Whispering Grass? Did the Whispering Grass pass Xiaomei's voice to me?" Ronggui said immediately.
"… Naive, the Whispering Grass can transmit sound within a limited distance at most. The distance between me and you is very long now, and the Whispering Grass cannot realize the communication between us."
"It's a built-in phone. The built-in two-way communication system between us has suddenly resumed operation." Xiaomei's voice was as calm as ever.
"Huh? Isn't our built-in phone useless here? What..."
"Is it someone from outside? The barrier between the floors of this prison was interrupted, and other communication methods have been restored now, right?" Xiaomei guessed that Whispering Grass could break through the entire prison at all.
"So that's the case~" Ronggui said convinced.
The two little robots didn't speak for a while.
After a long time, Rong Gui spoke again: "Xiaomei, you are hiding from me that you are sick, I already know."
"Well, I didn't mean to blame you, I just wanted to tell you..."
"Sick people get sick and stop running around."
"This is what the director of the orphanage told us before. I think it's a good sentence. Rongfu and the others told me this before. Now, I want to tell you this too."
"Xiaomei, you have cured my illness, and the current patient number in our family has become you. Then, then, you can rest well and let me help you find a way to find a doctor for treatment!"
"It doesn't matter if there is no doctor here who can treat you. Let's go to Sky City~ Purda said that someone there has been cured of the same disease as you, so let's go to him!"
"Xiaomei-"
"Xiaomei..."
In the end, in Xiaomei's ears, only the voice of Ronggui calling her was left.
"Yeah!" With a heavy response, Xiaomei didn't say anything anymore.
Allowing himself to be surrounded by honorable voices, he allowed himself to be immersed in this great sense of happiness.
Then, he heard Ronggui continue to say to himself:
"Xiaomei, can't you move?"
"Actually, I can't even move."
"but-"
"Your body is with me, and I tied our bodies together with the Whispering Grass you gave me before the Whispering Grass rushed over." What he said was eloquent, but it was vivid, and Xiaomei made up for it all at once. Ronggui's current appearance.
In his imagination, what Rong Gui said should be that he tied the freezer together with murmur grass, and there was his body and his body in the freezer.
"Xiaomei, didn't you say you have a way to come back? That... Do you want to think about it and come back now?" He heard Ronggui say to himself cautiously.
"… Hmm." Xiaomei gave a positive answer again.
He wants to go back, he wants to go back to Ronggui now.
Just when Ronggui described their current situation to him, he was already tempted in an instant.
