Abyss Notes [Unlimited]

Yu Zhou put down the knife.

If he could return to Jiujiu's side after dying now, he would not hesitate at all.But he didn't trust Liu Yingnian.

Yu Zhou doesn't trust everyone here.

"It's so dangerous."

Just as he spoke, Yu Zhou's hand was empty: the knife was taken away.

Yu Zhou didn't look back, he knew who it was just by hearing the voice.Although he really didn't want to talk to him, that young man was stickier than brown sugar.

"Do you believe what he said?" the young man said while pressing the sharp blade against his wrist.His wrists are clearly tattooed, and the blade is pressed into the skin.

Yu Zhou stared at the knife.

He also expected in his heart that he could get the answer to Liu Yingnian's question.

The young man didn't continue, he turned the blade and carved two words on the wooden railing: Fan Xing.

Yu Zhou read it silently twice, and suddenly asked in a gentle and harmless tone: "Why are you so calm? Don't you want to go back?" He looked at Fan Xing as sincerely as possible, his eyes were full of curiosity.

Fan Xing pinched his face: "My dear, isn't it interesting here?"

Yu Zhou dodged his hand, a bit unable to pretend, and said in a blunt tone, "No one would find this place interesting."

Fan Xing smiled and returned the knife to him: "I'm not the only one who doesn't want to go back."

Yu Zhou put away the knife.At this time Fan Xing suddenly asked again: "Why do you still carry a diary with you?"

Yu Zhou was stunned when he thought of the weird notebook in his backpack.

He remembered that when he first came here, the contents of the bag were scattered all over the floor.Fan Xing saw the diary, so did Liu Yingnian also see the knife?Yu Zhou was a little terrified, and looked at Liu Yingnian.Liu Yingnian was talking to that burly man, still using biscuits as an excuse.

Yu Zhou instantly understood why Liu Yingnian was chatting with him.Liu Yingnian, who entered the "Birdcage" for the first time, had his own purpose. He used Yu Zhou as a test: What will happen after a person dies in the "Birdcage"?

But why did Liu Yingnian come to him?Yu Zhou looked down at his clothes.The clothes are too plain, the shoes are too old to tell the color, and he is about the same age as Liu Yingnian. He looks like an ordinary student with little money.

There are also the little girl's coat, socks and headbands in the backpack. It can be seen that she is an ordinary student with a perverted heart and little money.

... Am I the weakest of these people?

Yu Zhou understood.

"What did you write in that notebook?" Fan Xing's question drew Yu Zhou's attention back, "Is it a diary? Who still writes a diary now?"

At the last moment in the bus shelter, I once saw some words in this book that couldn't be opened.Yu Zhou grabbed his backpack tightly: he couldn't remember what he saw.

"The purpose of writing a diary is for others to read." Fan Xing stretched out his hand, "Come, let me read."

Yu Zhou: "..."

He really didn't want to attract attention, and he didn't want to get into conflict with people.

But, he really wanted to punch Fan Xing in the face.

After weighing the pros and cons, Yu Zhou finally just quietly raised his middle finger behind his back.

As night came, the townspeople of Wujiao Town went home early to rest. The only place in the town that could accommodate these outsiders was the high tower.

The tower has a strange structure, with only one door for entry and exit, no upward stairs and no windows, the interior is very narrow, and the space above the head is completely blocked by bricks.

Six people entered the town, but only five remained in the tower.Yu Zhou walked in front of the tower and saw a man in the team wearing a gray-blue fisherman's hat sitting by the opposite fence, obviously not going to rest with them.It was a man with almost no sense of existence, he didn't speak, and he didn't have contact with anyone. Yu Zhou wanted to greet him, but swallowed the words again.

Liu Yingnian borrowed candles from someone, and lit two candles sticking to the ground.Yu Zhou was startled and tired all day long, sitting in a corner with his backpack in his arms, thinking about it for a long time, worrying about himself, and feeling some strange noises on the brick wall above his head, making people uneasy.

Liu Yingnian and Jiang Xiao were talking, and Fan Xing was also joining in the fun.

He didn't know what he said, but Liu Yingnian laughed so hard that even the corners of Jiang Xiao's lips curled up.Yu Zhou was not good at dealing with people since he was a child. At this moment, he was dumbfounded, and he felt faint jealousy in his heart: the handsome guy with long sleeves and good at dancing is really the enemy of mankind.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, Yu Zhou quietly opened the notebook.On the blank title page were written the words "Diary of the Abyss", which was a bit scribbled, but the handwriting was beautiful.Looking through the whole book, only the first page has text, but it is obviously not the same person who wrote the title page. The strokes are immature and clumsy, and it is a sentence without beginning and end:

[When the beast stops breathing, the dream wakes up. 】

A line of inexplicable words, next to a stick figure, which seems to be the panorama of Wujiao Town: a big circle with a nail-like building in the center, and a small black whirlwind outside the circle.

Did you see these handwritings?Yu Zhou was not sure.

Fan Xing slipped to his side at some point, and Yu Zhou quickly closed his notes.

"I've seen it all." Fan Xing said, "You are a literary youth, you also write poems and paintings."

Yu Zhou: "Don't scold people."

He got up to dodge, Fan Xing grabbed his backpack strap: "What? Afraid of me?"

Yu Zhou immediately smiled meekly: "...No, I'm urgent to pee."

Fan Xing: "Coincidentally, me too. Together?"

Yu Zhou sat back and said, "Forget it."

The door of the high tower opened with a creak, and an old man walked in, claiming to be the tower guard, Mr. Gu.

"You have also seen that Wujiao Town is small and there is not much food. Recently, the fog has been heavy, and fishermen cannot go to sea. It has become more and more difficult." Teacher Gu said, "I know that it is dangerous outside, so it is no problem to keep you in Wujiao Town. , but can you do us a favor?"

Jiang Xiao immediately replied: "Yes, you can say."

Teacher Gu: "Dispel this thick fog."

Everyone looked at Jiang Xiao.Jiang Xiao asked: "Is there a method, or any tools?"

Teacher Gu answered irrelevantly: "If it is really possible to dispel the fog, I know a secret way to get out of here safely."

He beat his back and turned to leave. He paused at the door, then turned around and said, "Rest, don't go out at night."

Everyone looked at each other in the tower.

"Dispel the dense fog? This is the puzzle of the 'Birdcage'? But how to dispel it? This is fog!" Liu Yingnian asked Jiang Xiao, "Have you ever seen such a situation?"

Jiang smiled: "I haven't seen it."

The surrounding atmosphere is one of decadent.

Jiang Xiao himself was not disappointed: "Let's explore Wujiao Town tomorrow, and the clue must be hidden in the town."

In the stagnant atmosphere, Yu Zhou raised his finger upwards and mustered up the courage to say, "I saw a big windmill on the top of this tower."

The next day, everyone was awakened by the crowing of cocks in Wujiao Town.

Jiang Xiao was originally occupying a corner alone, but Fan Xing walked over to her at some point and fell asleep on her shoulder.Jiang Xiao turned pale with anger, grabbed Fan Xing by the collar: "Why are you sleeping next to me?"

Fan Xing: "I think it's safer to sleep with you."

Jiang smiled: "Are you a fucking man!"

Fan Xing followed her to get up: "What's wrong with men? Men don't need a sense of security?"

Yu Zhou rubbed his face.After he mentioned the existence of the windmill on the top of the tower last night, the big man, Fan Xing and Liu Yingnian all wanted to go out to check.But Jiang Xiao dissuaded them: Teacher Gu emphasized not to go out at night before leaving, indicating that there will be abnormal situations in Wujiao Town at night, and such reminders must not be taken lightly.

Jiang Xiao's every action allowed them to escape the crisis or obtain new information. Everyone trusted her completely and obeyed her words.

I thought it would be a sleepless night, but I was so tired and sleepy, Yu Zhou fell asleep before the two candles burned out.

He rubbed his face while getting up, and suddenly remembered the man who refused to enter the tower to rest last night.Walking out of the tower, Yu Zhou saw the man wearing the fisherman's hat standing not far away, looking up at the top of the tower.

He was still alive.

The high tower went deep into the clouds, and with the flow of the wind, the huge windmill submerged in the high-altitude dense fog creaked and turned slowly.Although it is not enough to blow away the dense fog, at least it can be seen vaguely.

Windmills seem to be the right answer.

"Do you want to go up?" Teacher Gu came leading two dogs, "You can't go up this tower."

He took a breath every time he said a word, and bent like a shrimp.The two yellow dogs stared fiercely at the six people in front of them.

Jiang Xiao asked: "How does the windmill above start?"

The old man was taken aback: "Start?"

Jiang Xiao looked at the old man quietly.After a while, the old man came to his senses: "Ah...start. The pole to start the windmill is at the top of the tower."

He told everyone that many years ago, there was an iron ladder outside the tower.But since the dense fog eroded Wujiao Town, the iron ladder gradually rusted, and one day it suddenly broke and fell, and there was nothing that could go up the tower after that.

Got a little hint, and everyone was excited.

The big man rolled up his sleeves and walked to the tower first.There are some protruding stones on the tower, and there are marks left when the iron ladder broke.Without saying a word, the big man grabbed the stone and began to climb.

Liu Yingnian yelled in fright: "No way! I can't climb up!"

"When I was practicing freehand rock climbing, you were still breastfeeding!" The big man sneered.

As expected, he was an old hand, and he climbed very methodically, seeing that he was climbing higher and higher.

At this moment, Yu Zhou realized that the stones outside the tower were placed very mysteriously: the reason why they appeared on this tower seemed to be for people to climb.

Someone beside me handed a biscuit: "Do you want to eat it?"

Yu Zhou glanced at the raisin sandwich cake, then followed the hand to look at Fan Xing.Fan Xing was chewing a piece of cake, and warmly greeted Yu Zhou: "This tastes good, Liu Yingnian must have studied eating."

Seeing that Yu Zhou didn't respond, Fan Xing finished eating the piece in his mouth and chewed this one too.He seemed to be watching a play, happily applauding the big man climbing the tower with his bare hands: "Beautiful!"

Standing beside Fan Xing, Yu Zhou felt very tired.

Suddenly the sound of breaking through the air passed over his head, and before Yu Zhou raised his head, Liu Yingnian's scream startled him.

In the dense fog covering the top of the tower, the shadowy windmill figure suddenly twisted and deformed, and then two chubby hands protruded from the fog.

Without a moment's pause or hesitation, the big hand slapped the big man climbing the tower like a mosquito.

Yu Zhou closed his eyes reflexively.

There was a loud bang, and objects fell to the ground one after another.

The big man was smashed to pieces.

The big hands hadn't disappeared yet, they stretched out to the ground, grabbed the still relatively complete body of the big man, retracted quickly, and disappeared at the top of the tower.

Everyone was speechless.Jiang Xiao crushed her lollipop, and Liu Yingnian, who was the loudest, also froze on the spot.

Only the old man with the dog walked over slowly.Like handling garbage, he picked up the stump and threw it to the yellow dog behind him.The yellow dog slurped and his mouth was full of blood and flesh.

Liu Yingnian covered his mouth and rushed aside to vomit.Yu Zhou suddenly remembered the voice he heard inside the tower.

He ran into the tower and stood still.There was a brick ceiling above his head. At this time, a voice came from above, which was extremely clear.

Bite, chew, swallow.Chirp, chirp, chirp.

The blood dripping from the cracks in the bricks formed countless tiny blood spots at Yu Zhou's feet.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Yu Zhou: Everyone please eat... eat...

Fan Xing: Eat Liu Yingnian's cookies.

By the time everyone found out that Liu Yingnian was sending expired biscuits, it was already the second day after she had diarrhea.
