captive joint

Although it was not far from the entrance of the cave, the thick and warm cotton socks were really soft and comfortable in the boots, but at the moment when walking on the smooth, wet and uneven rocks, the slipping from time to time made Shao Jun miserable.When he finally walked to the cave, his legs became weak and he was out of breath.

Holding the iron door, he looked up, and the sky outside the cave was already glowing, indicating the bad news that the sun was about to set.

Now Shao Jun couldn't take a moment to catch his breath, and pushed the iron door with all his strength.The heavy iron door remained motionless, leaving only black scorched marks on the palm of his padded jacket.

Unwilling to give up, Shao Jun leaned forward and hit it again. Although the iron door vibrated and there was a dull sound, he did not move at all.

Too thick.The possibility of pushing it away by yourself is too small.

Shao Jun was a little discouraged, and leaned against the door exhausted, thinking worriedly: It seems that he will probably spend the night here tonight.

He rested his chin and looked around the cave.

The cave is a circular structure with no rocks in the center, and you can clearly see the gorgeous clouds.The whole cave is not big or small.If you have good legs and feet, you can run from the entrance of the cave to the deepest point by trotting for more than a minute.

but now……

Shao Jun lowered his head and grabbed the chain fastened to his ankle.

A two-finger-wide silver chain was connected to two metal shackles on his ankles.Although it is not very heavy, the short chain greatly limits Shao Jun's possibilities of movement.

He checked the sides of the two shackles, but found no depressions that were keyholes.

I don't know if Yao Yingyan was planning to lock himself for the rest of his life and welded the shackles to death, or there was another way to open them.

Thinking of this, Shao Jun couldn't help but smile wryly.

Brother Yao Yingyan...

But at the same time, he knew that if Yao Yingyi didn't let him go, if he wanted to get out of trouble, he could only rely on Yao Yingyan, whom he had just left behind not long ago.

It's ridiculous.

Shao Jun thought of his dire situation, so he could only take pleasure in the bitterness, hehehe a few times.

But he didn't give up, thinking that there might be other passages, and felt that before the sun had fully set and Yao Yingyi hadn't returned, even if he couldn't escape, he might still be able to find something about the past from the cave. thing.

It's just that Shao Jun still has lingering fears about the narrow escape just now, and he has a premonition that if Yao Yingyi comes back again, maybe something unexpected will happen to him this time.

Strange to say, Shao Jun staggered on the uneven rocks, his socks were already soaked, he should have felt cold or in pain.But apart from feeling a little cold when I realized it at first, I didn't feel anything at this time. Even the pain in my neck and throat before disappeared without a trace, and it didn't exist anymore.

He clasped his hands together and breathed a sigh of relief, just like he was still in Yao Yingyan's arms just now, there was no trace of white mist floating up.

Shao Jun felt a little strange.Although I feel that I shouldn't delve into it at this time, I still can't help but get distracted.When he realized that it was too dangerous to walk like this, he felt something round and round on his foot, his ankle twisted and the sole of his foot slipped, the chain pulled the other foot, and he fell heavily on the ground.

There was a familiar crisp sound when it landed. Shao Jun thought he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.But compared to this, what he cared about was that even if he fell to the ground like this, he still couldn't feel the pain.

He was suddenly worried, wondering if Yao Yingyi had done something to him.

Is it the bloody smell that was breathed into my body when I was in a daze?

He sat on the ground and looked at his hands. Although they were pale and bloodless, they were still human hands.Touching his cheek again, the skin was still soft, and it didn't become the firm texture like Yao Yingyi's rubber.

But how to explain why I suddenly lost the ability to feel pain and feel cold?

Shao Jun was perplexed, but he couldn't find the reason for a while, so he half got up and bent down to find the culprit who caused him to fall just now.

After brushing away the snow covering himself, he found a ball joint of a doll the size of a fist in a crack in the rock.

He took a closer look at this thing, and felt that it looked like a doll's knee joint.Touching its shape again, it seemed that it was not the first time he had stepped on this thing.

So, Shao Jun stood up again, and while walking slowly, he lowered his head and searched in the snow on the open ground in the center of the cave.

The more he searched, the more frightened he became, and the more he searched, the more confused he became.

The closer to the open air in the center of the cave, the more dolls have stumps, some of which are even stacked on top of each other. You can recognize that it is definitely not a rock without removing the snow covering it.

Why are there so many doll stumps here?

Judging from their shape and appearance, they are very similar to Shao Jun once waking up in the studio and saw the stumps of dolls all over the floor.

Was Yao Yingyan abandoned here?Or what Yao Yingyi did before his death?

Looking so broken, were they thrown from above?

Shao Jun raised his head and looked up through the opening at the top of the cave.

Under the sunlight, a cliff appeared in the field of vision.

Suddenly, he found someone vaguely standing on it.

Could it be Yao Yingyan?

Shao Jun couldn't help being overjoyed, and shouted to the top: "Brother! I'm here!"
