Chapter 3: Shadows
"Shadows?"
I drank a lot of wine, and looked at Jinghai's fingers in a daze, but I didn't see anything unusual, "What's wrong with the shadow?" ”
Sun Lu suddenly sighed, "Woe, you raise your right hand." ”
I did so, but I still didn't see anything, and asked Jinghai a little impatiently what he wanted to say.
"Holy!"
Sun Lu jumped up from the sofa all of a sudden, pointed to the ground, and was dumbfounded for a long time before he held back a sentence: "You...... How is your shadow reversed?! ”
I was stunned for a moment, lowered my head and took a closer look, and couldn't help but gasp.
As we all know, shadow is one of the most common optical phenomena, due to different light, shadow may be stretched or compressed, but shadow is produced by the light is occluded, no matter how the shape changes, the action is always the same as the body.
However, at this moment, my raised right hand has not been lowered, and the shadow I cast on the ground is not synchronized with me, but has raised another hand!
"How so?" I suspect I'm dazzled, but the truth is, I haven't had any visual hallucinations yet.
I subconsciously stood up and gestured to the ground, and the shadow on the ground did the same thing as me, but no matter what I did, the shadow moved in the opposite direction!
It's especially obvious that when I turn my face to one side, the shadow's face turns to the other side, and this divergence is so obvious.
This strange phenomenon made me feel panicked, looked at Jinghai in amazement, and asked him carefully, what is going on?
Jing Hai took a long puff of his cigarette, then snuffed out the cigarette butt, and pointed to the ground again, "Look again." ”
This time, Sun Lu and I looked at each other at the same time, and when we raised our heads, we were a little stunned.
Sun Lu couldn't help but look at his shadow and rubbed his eyes vigorously, "Could it be that I was dazzled just now?" ”
I was almost the same as him, because when I look at it now, my shadow is very ordinary, just like the reflection in the mirror, nothing special.
This can't help but make me wonder if I really drank too much just now and read it wrong.
However, after a long period of experience and the self-belief in self-judgment that I had cultivated during my studies, I quickly decided in my heart that I was not dazzled by the fact that I had just seen something different.
I stared at Jinghai for a while, and somehow, my eyes fell on the ashtray in front of him, and I suddenly remembered something vaguely, and muttered, "Fire ......"
Jinghai smiled, "You really thought of it." ”
Sun Lu's brain was by no means slower than mine, although it was still cloudy and foggy, but when he heard me say the word 'fire', and then looked at the cigarette butts still smoking in the ashtray, he immediately picked up the lighter on the table and hit it with a 'click'.
At this time, looking at the ground again, both of them were dumbfounded again.
The shadow that I was reflected on the ground turned against me again!
I asked Sun Lu to extinguish the lighter, and as soon as the fire went out, the shadow became normal again.
I sat back on the sofa, but I didn't dare to light a cigarette again, after all, the shadow's 'betrayal' of himself, thinking about it, is still very panicked.
After a while, I asked Jinghai why my shadow was like this.
Jinghai stared at me with a smile on his face, "How else can I say you're lucky?" If your shadow hadn't changed, I'm afraid you and I would have been buried in that evil grave, and we would never be able to drink and eat meat here again. ”
I had been awakened by the drunkenness for five minutes, and as soon as I listened to him, and then thought back to my experience in the tomb of the living dead, I quickly remembered some details.
I'm not deliberately ignoring something, but in Sanyi Garden, in that evil tomb, everything that happened is too much beyond the normal logical range, especially in the later stage, I am simply exhausted, my thoughts and actions have been racing against time and the situation, and I can't concentrate on a single occurrence at all.
However, the peculiar sight that happened to me at this time had to remind me of something.
The most impressive thing about this is that when I was affected by the power of the 'construction team' and was about to enter the last portal, Jinghai said abruptly:
"Are there eggs under the nest? He is all gone, do you still have a chance to get out of life?"
At that time, I only felt that the old monk's words were obviously not aimed at me, but at that time, except for me, and Zhao Boss and Zang Zhiqiang, who were also controlled, there was no one else around, who did he say this to?
The point is, not long after he said this, the situation took a turn for the better, and I was dragged to the ground like a ghost, so that I had the opportunity to take countermeasures.
Looking back, I felt very strange at that time, saying that it was a ghost stumbling, but in fact, it was more like someone stepped on the back of my clothes and dragged me down.
The truth is, I had a pair of pants all over my body at that time, how could I be stepped on in my clothes?
I subconsciously lowered my gaze to my feet again, and my eyes widened suddenly.
Could it be that I was trampled on the shadow behind me at that time, and I was dragged to the ground?
Seeing that I couldn't grasp the key, Jinghai smiled and finally gave an answer.
The old girl did not directly explain the reason for the change of shadows, but first asked me, "Do you still remember, how did you get out of the Netherfire?" ”
I didn't answer immediately, and only after thinking about it carefully did I say: "At that time, I dragged Boss Zhao with the intention of ending up together, and then I was swallowed by the fire and lost consciousness. When I woke up, I didn't feel the burning pain, but I heard someone whispering in my ear, tell me to go quickly. That person seems to ...... It seems to be ......"
I had a thrill in my head, "That person is Zhu Anbin!" ”
"Isn't that kid!"
Jing Hai nodded with a smile, "The kid surnamed Zhao said that in addition to 'gold' in the evil mound, water, fire, earth, and wood are extremely prosperous. The real treasure of feng shui will not easily change the situation because of external factors. On the contrary, the so-called treasure land can change the gaps caused by most people. ”
Sun Lu and I both shook our heads, indicating that we couldn't understand what he meant at all.
Jing Hai glanced at the two of us with disdain, "What I mean is that the bones of the people who have died there over the years have not only not destroyed the situation there, but have become more and more intriguing to the Five Elements, which will eventually lead to the burning of the Hellfire." In other words, the evil situation of the upside-down golden bell will eventually attract the fire of the netherworld, incinerate all the evil qi of external objects, and restore the original situation again. ”
"I'm really thinking about it." Sun Tuzi frowned and said what I wanted to say, "I have to hurry up and get the girl back." ”
