captive joint

Although the bottom of the cave and the top of the cliff are separated by at least a dozen floors, but in the mountains near evening in winter, there is no other disturbance except for the occasional wind noise, so it should have passed through this place for a long time. The words that dissipated into a lingering sound after a long distance, really conveyed where it should go.

Not long after, Shao Jun saw Yao Yingyan lying on the edge of the cliff, leaning half of his body out, and shouted loudly: "Jun Jun, don't-be-terrified-brother is coming!"

With this guarantee, Shao Jun, who was trapped in the cave, suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

With one hand on the ground, he stood up tremblingly carefully, thinking that Yao Yingyan could see him, walked a few steps towards the center, raised his head and shouted loudly, "Brother, I'll wait for you."

Yao Yingyan's figure had already disappeared from Shao Jun's field of vision, but after Shao Jun's voice fell, Yao Yingyan reappeared with most of his body leaning out of the cliff, waving his hands and shouting: "Brother is coming."

Seeing this scene, Shao Jun almost thought that he was going to jump off just like that, and couldn't help but be startled.

Fortunately, Yao Yingyan quickly disappeared from Shao Jun's sight, as if he was on his way.

Although Yao Yingyan concealed a lot from himself, and even deliberately deceived himself, Shao Jun had a sense of trust in him from the bottom of his heart.Even though he was trapped here at the moment, there was still Yao Yingyi who didn't know when he would come back, but he firmly believed that Yao Yingyan would come to rescue him.

However, Shao Jun was not happy for long, just when he was about to return to the entrance of the cave to leave later, the soles of his feet slipped, his body fell back, and he fell heavily to the ground. Just when he was struggling to stand up, he realized that it should be The ground composed of rocks has been replaced by piled up fragments of dolls in the center of the cave.Even a depression in the center of the floor is covered under layers of ceramic shards that are part of the puppet's body.

And Shao Jun happened to fall on the edge of the depression, and the balance that the fragments had maintained skillfully was instantly broken by him.Without waiting for Shao Jun to make any effort, the debris around the depression poured down with gravity, and together with Shao Jun, they were washed into the depression.

Fortunately, the pit was not deep, and there were fragments of the doll to cushion him, and Shao Jun lost his sense of pain, so he didn't feel pain after falling, and he didn't feel any discomfort and couldn't move.

Shao Jun staggered to his feet, looking up at the mouth of the sunken pit.

Although this is a deep pit that is only twice his height, normally, his feet are not restricted, and there is still a possibility to try along the uneven rock walls on both sides, but at this time his feet are restricted by shackles. Difficult, climbing the rock wall with only the strength of the arms is a troublesome thing that is difficult to reach the sky.

Shao Jun helplessly moved the debris on the ground, managed to clear an open space for himself, and sat down on his buttocks, thinking: Misfortunes never come singly.

He propped his chin up and glanced at the dimly-yellow sky, worried that Yao Yingyan would still not be able to find him before the sun set.Because of the movement of the two of them just now, Yao Yingyi might come back anytime.And he was trapped in this sunken pit again, I'm afraid it's more or less ominous.

Still have to actively save yourself.

Taking advantage of the reddening sunlight at this moment, Shao Jun raised his exhausted spirit, leaned against the rock wall behind him, and looked at the depression.This deep pit is not big, only about the size of a small pickup truck, and the bottom of the pit is full of remains of dolls that fell with him. At first glance, it looks like a mass grave.

But a little farther away from Shao Jun, there is a striking bulge.At first glance, he only thought that it was the same as the accumulation of puppet fragments around him, which was caused by the collapse just now.But when he took a closer look, he felt something was wrong no matter how he looked at it, so he half-crawled and half-walked to the side of the pile of things.

After brushing away the debris on the surface, Shao Jun gasped at what was exposed below, couldn't help but close his eyes and crawled back.

He saw that heads with exactly the same face as his own, with their eyes closed tightly, were piled up into a small minaret.

what is this!

Is it your own head?

No, no.

Shao Jun plucked up his courage and opened his eyes again. This time, what he saw was not his own face, but the heads of dolls.Most of them are not very complete, and are stained with some dirt or other stains, and some are even missing half, so the eyeballs in the eye sockets are shaking because of this, as if they could roll out of the gap in the next moment.

Did Yao Yingyi do it?

After my brother became like that, this hobby is really not flattering.

Suddenly, Shao Jun noticed with sharp eyes that there was a dark brown cloth-like thing in the pile of heads.Curiosity dispelled the shock just now, he moved to the pile of things again, stretched out his hand and pushed.

The heads of the puppet piled up and collapsed in an instant, revealing what seemed to be a windbreaker underneath.Shao Jun looked familiar with the windbreaker style.It's just that the back of this windbreaker is facing upwards, revealing a tear on the back, and a large black bloodstain spreading from that tear to the surroundings.

For some reason, some strange fragments suddenly flashed in Shao Jun's mind.He saw himself wearing this windbreaker with a dagger stuck in his back, slowly falling forward, and saw a man who looked like his brother hugging him and crying.

There is also the voice from the young man who had only met once: I am waiting for you in the pathology department.

These clips flashed by, and Shao Jun wanted to think deeply, but there was a fear of imminent disaster in his heart, which forced him to hold back.

He patted his forehead, sighed again, and put them down temporarily.

After opening the windbreaker, the things piled underneath were somewhat beyond Shao Jun's expectation.He thought it would be something related to dolls, but in fact it was a curled up human skeleton and some pens, small glass bottles and other bits and pieces.

Shao Jun visually measured the distance between the pelvis of the skeleton and guessed that its owner should be a man.

It's just that one part of this remains is missing, which looks very ominous.

It has no head.

So there are a lot of heads piled on it?

Shao Jun felt that he seemed to have found a connection, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, he didn't even know who this person was, so how could he guess right.

However, he wasn't afraid to get close to this human remains, and even felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.He stroked it lightly, the surface of the bone was smooth and white, as if someone had cleaned it carefully and gently.

Aside from the head, this skeleton is intact everywhere, except that the ribs on the back are on the upper side, and there is a scar that looks like it was cut by a sharp weapon at the place facing the break in the windbreaker.

Did this man die of suffocation caused by a massive hemorrhage in a pulmonary artery?

This can be regarded as a rather painful way to die.

Shao Jun touched the obvious scar, thinking deeply.

I just don't know what relationship this skeleton has with Yao Yingyi when it appears here.

Shao Jun didn't think it was a coincidence, the person who died was either related to him or Yao Yingyi.

Thinking of Yao Yingyi, the crying part in Shao Jun's heart made him even more troubled. His mind was filled with crying whispers. From the crying at the beginning, it has now turned into persuading him not to struggle , die quickly.

He took a few deep breaths, and forcibly ignored that part, leaving only his indifferent reason to face the reality.

Shao Jun looked at the skeleton with some pity, and tidied up the pens, ink bottles and other small things scattered around, and was planning to cover it again with a windbreaker.

At this moment, a booklet slipped out of the side pocket of the windbreaker, which caught Shao Jun's attention.
