Codex of Powers
Chapter 28: The Cage
Zimeng told Gao Xia not to talk, but to sit and rest well.
There are still tall trees on both sides, but they are essentially different from the trees in the forest. The trees are beautiful in shape, and it can be seen that they are often repaired and cleaned.Zimeng straightened the sword on his waist, then walked a few steps before turning around and saying to Gao Xia: "You are here to take care of Pusheng, I will look around and check the situation before going back."
"Okay." Seeing him like that, Gao Xia knew it would be boring to follow him, and now Pusheng really wanted him to take care of him.
"How do you feel now? Do you feel better?" Gao Xia helped Pusheng sit up and lay down, then took out a bottle of water from his bag for him to drink.Pusheng snatched the bottle from his mouth and said, "I'm not dead yet! You can drink it yourself."
Gao Xia smiled.Get another bottle of water to drink.After drinking the water, Gao Xia brought out some bread and biscuits.Seeing the bread that had turned into Wu Dalang's biscuits, Gao Xia spread his hands and began to eat with big mouthfuls.
Pusheng looked at it, grabbed it and ate it too.Later they ate some snacks. Although they were not very full, they still filled up six or seven points.
After sitting and waiting for more than 20 minutes, Zimeng still did not come back.Both Gao Xia and Pu Sheng couldn't sit still.Thinking about it carefully, Zimeng has been gone for more than half an hour, and when he left, he said he would go and return, which is a bit too long.
"What should we do? Shall we go find Zimeng?" Gao Xia asked Pusheng.
Pusheng thought for a while, frowned, and couldn't make up his mind for a moment.But in the end I still said: "Wait a little longer, if we rush to find him, it's okay if we find him, but it's a bit difficult to get together again if we don't find the three of us. He also asked us to wait for him here when he left. Come back by another way, and we are not here, not to cause trouble for him. If he encounters danger, he must first consider how to get out of his body and join us. I believe his consideration is more slender, longer and more comprehensive than ours "Pusheng tied up the bread bag on the ground and continued: "Maybe we found something if we haven't come back so far. Let's wait. If we are in danger, we won't be able to help you if we go there. Don't say help. After a fight, as long as you can hide, it’s fine, I’m worse than you now, going there will only increase Zimeng’s burden.”
After hearing Pusheng finished speaking, Gao Xia had nothing to say.And if you think about it carefully, it's best to wait here now, maybe Zimeng is on his way back now.
Gao Xia tidied up her things and was ready to go at any time, just waiting for Zimeng to show up.
After 10 minutes, Pusheng and Gao Xia couldn't bear it any longer.
After half an hour, Gao Xia walked back and forth in front of Pusheng, but was stopped by Pusheng irritably.
After five or ten minutes, Gao Xia sat, not knowing what to think.
After an hour, Gao Xia helped Pusheng up.Walk in the direction Zimeng walked.
After walking for a while, they came to a forest.They could see the roof of the yard along the way, and along the direction of the roof, they could reach Baldy Li.Strange to say, even though they kept walking in the direction of the yard, the yard they saw never got bigger, and the distance didn't seem to get shorter.
"Is this the right direction? Now that I've been walking for so long, I don't know which way Zimeng is going." Gao Xia said.
"It's okay. Let's look for it slowly. Zimeng has his own measure and will find an opportunity to join us. The most important thing now is to protect ourselves. We can live until Zimeng finds us." Pusheng was a little scared when he finished speaking. , I just wanted to ask, is there any danger here?Before he could speak, he heard footsteps.Gao Xia immediately looked left and right, and then hurriedly pulled Pusheng behind a clump of plants.
After a while, a group of people came over.Gao Xia took a peek, and saw a group of people wearing white gowns walking by, followed by a few men who looked like bodyguards.
After the team finished walking, Gao Xia looked at Pusheng, and Pusheng also stared at Gao Xia, then nodded.The two stood up slowly and followed behind.
Gao Xia and the others followed the team and walked for more than half an hour before arriving at a house.This house is a normal house, with small windows and iron railings, like a bungalow in the countryside in the 90s.
I saw that group of people came to the door, stopped, and then the person who walked in the front took out the key and opened the door, and then a group of them walked in.Don't forget to close the door.
After waiting for a while, Gao Xia and Pu Sheng came out slowly.came to the door.These are two iron doors, both rusted to a certain extent, but they are very thick and look very strong.
"What should we do? Shall we follow in?" Gao Xia tried to push the door, but it didn't move.
Pusheng stepped forward, touched the iron gate, and then touched the palm-sized lock.Then tell Gao Xia to stand a little further away.Looking at Pusheng's careful study, Gao Xia suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Pusheng, when will you be able to move around freely?" Gao Xia remembered that not long ago he was helping him to walk Well, how come you are more energetic than yourself now?
"Just now." Pu Sheng tilted his head and said.
Seeing that Pusheng was able to act like a normal person again, and his face was full of vitality, Gao Xia was really relieved. He walked over slowly and saw Pusheng tinkering with the rusty lock.
"What's the matter? Can you open it?" Gao Xia asked while hiding behind and stretching his neck.
Pusheng ignored him, turned around, shook his head slightly, and said, "I don't know. I'll try." As soon as he finished speaking, Pusheng pulled the lock hard with his hand, and the lock popped open. Gao Xia looked down and saw that the lock was twisted by Pu Sheng abruptly, and it was made of pure iron.
"Did you do it? Your strength...?" Gao Xia looked at him in surprise, is this really something that a young man of his age can do?Pusheng ignored him, pushed the door open forcefully, and walked in.Gao Xia looked at the black hole inside, hesitant, just wanted to ask if there was any ambush, right?Before he could say anything, Pusheng walked straight in. Gao Xia looked at it and thought that leaving him here alone might as well go with Pusheng.
They just walked in.This room is miraculously dark, like a basement. Fortunately, there are still lights in this room, although the lights are also very dim.
A corridor is just enough for two people to sit side by side without looking crowded.There are walls on both sides, and I don't know what is on the other side of the wall.
The two walked for a while, but the corridor hadn't come to an end yet, and it looked like it was about a hundred meters away.Gao Xia felt guilty, no matter how he looked at it, it was a bit unusual, and he felt that this was a trap to lead them into danger.
Pusheng didn't feel it at all, he walked quickly alone, like an adventurous boy who always wanted to find the treasure quickly.Gao Xia followed behind, looking left and right, always felt that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit strange.
They walked some distance.Then saw a door.This is also an iron door, but smaller than the door.Pusheng, who was walking in front, stopped and looked at the door.
"What's wrong?" Gao Xia asked.
Pusheng frowned, touched the door up, down, left, and right, and then said with a strange expression: "Isn't it right?"
"What's wrong?" Gao Xia also felt something was wrong.
"This door is dead!" Pu Sheng looked at him in confusion, Gao Xia became anxious and said, "Dead?"
"Well, it's dead. I can't open it. This is actually a wall. This iron door is integrated with the wall." Pusheng's confused eyes just now are gone. Back to normal, speaking calmly, as if nothing had happened.
"Is this door fake, and it's here for playing?" Gao Xia asked.
Pusheng didn't listen to what he was saying, moved his hand away from the iron door, looked around on the wall, saw a small protrusion on a place, pressed it lightly with his hand, and then heard a heavy "bang" from the wall. An iron cage fell from the top of their heads and covered them all at once.
When Gao Xia heard this, he immediately turned around and wanted to run back, but it was too late, the iron cage locked them both inside.
"The protruding brick just now is a mechanism?" Gao Xia asked Pusheng.Pusheng looked around and didn't answer him.
"Wrong, that's not a mechanism, that's just a protruding brick." A voice rang out, and then they looked up to see a man standing above their heads.Gao Xia recognized him, he was the man who locked them in the Heishu den.
"Do you know why it's just an ordinary protruding brick?" The man touched the white mask on his face, and asked himself: "That's to attract the attention of the dolls, as long as you are attracted by this, I can take advantage of you." Unprepared to press the switch and lock you up here." After speaking, the masked man burst out laughing.
Although Gao Xia doesn't watch much TV or movies, he always thinks he's pretty smart, but now he doesn't understand it and feels he can't make it.
"Actually, is it necessary to do this? If the protruding brick is a mechanism, you don't need to press it, and pressing it yourself has no technical content. If you accidentally shake your hand, isn't it just letting the enemy live?" Gao Xia rolled her eyes and asked Pusheng.Pusheng rolled his eyes the same way he did, and said, "There's nothing to do when you're full, you bunch of crazy."
"I heard it, did you two do it on purpose?" The masked man put away his smile, a little annoyed.
"Hey, faceless man!" Pusheng raised his head and shouted at the masked man.
"Who is the faceless man?!" the masked man asked loudly.
"Of course it's you? Otherwise, who else is there?" Pusheng pointed to the masked man standing on top of them, and said word by word: "It's you who is talking about! Who dare not show his true face! Face! Man!"
"You idiot who is tired of work!" The masked man was really irritated, and he pulled out a knife from the back all at once, flung it down, and aimed at Pusheng.
Gao Xia and Pu Sheng stood together, looking at the situation, it was really scary.Gao Xia exerted all his strength, but he didn't move, because he was too nervous and was completely stunned.
Watching the knife rushing towards him so fast that he didn't even have a chance to blink, Gao Xia couldn't help but think in his heart: "I can't die now, right?" Knife rushing.As soon as the hand stretched out like this, it was firmly clamped.
Pusheng smiled lightly, then swung the knife in his hand and threw it out.The knife quickly flew over from the iron cage, and then pierced the masked man's head.
The masked man smiled and easily dodged.
"Want to kill me? It's not that easy." After speaking, the masked man slowly walked over, but before taking two steps, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he suddenly lost his footing. The son lost his momentum.Gao Xia stared blankly, really didn't know what happened in the last second.
"What's wrong with him?" Gao Xia touched Pusheng with his hand and asked.
Pusheng didn't answer, the masked man coughed and hurriedly covered it with his hands, spitting out a mouthful of black blood.The masked man's body began to tremble, and then violently twitched, bending his waist and shrinking into a ball.After waiting for several minutes, the masked man stood up again and pointed at Pusheng and said, "What have you done?" His tone was weak, as if he was about to die.
There are still tall trees on both sides, but they are essentially different from the trees in the forest. The trees are beautiful in shape, and it can be seen that they are often repaired and cleaned.Zimeng straightened the sword on his waist, then walked a few steps before turning around and saying to Gao Xia: "You are here to take care of Pusheng, I will look around and check the situation before going back."
"Okay." Seeing him like that, Gao Xia knew it would be boring to follow him, and now Pusheng really wanted him to take care of him.
