Fear Collection

On the fourth day, during the day, Xie Jinxi even felt that she smelled a...very strange smell.

It's hard to describe that smell, but if I have to say it, it's like a fragrance that comes naturally from the human body.

That kind of smell is not exactly the fragrance left by shower gel, shampoo or laundry detergent. It is more complex, richer and more three-dimensional. It makes people think of naked|naked flesh|body when smelling it. It is the most special thing about a person. markup.

Some people can smell that smell, some people can't smell it, some people can only smell their own smell, and some people can only smell that particular person's smell.

Xie Jinxi couldn't smell this kind of smell before, so he was very confused when he woke up in the morning.

Moreover, his ability to perceive temperature has also increased. Originally, as long as Muta doesn't move, he basically can't feel the existence of Muta who is separated from him by a wall.

But now he can feel that Muta's body temperature over there is slightly lower than the surrounding temperature, and he can accurately outline his approximate location through the wall.

It's amazing, are his senses more in sync with Muta's?

So what he smelled was actually his own?

Xie Jinxi's blood surged at the thought of this, and soon the tips of his ears were bright red.

Are you kidding, Muta wanted his towel before that?What the hell did he do with a towel?

No, it should be said that if Muta was still hanging around the other party at that... at that time, would it count as fishing, no, snake fishing?

Fortunately, this kind of empathy didn't last too long, Xie Jinxi felt that Muta was about to shed his skin in the afternoon.

After obtaining Muta's consent, Xie Jinxi took a cushion and sat outside the shower area, leaning against the open glass door to watch Muta shed this time.

There is obviously a dark translucent film on the surface of his tail, but generally snakes in the wild will use rough stones and branches to hang the snake skin that is about to shed, and start by rubbing off the skin on the head, but Muta wants Only the part of skin on the tail is shed, how to do this?

"Can you help me pull it?"

what?

[Is this... directly started? ]

"Why not? You and I both have hands. If I don't have your help, I will do it myself, but it will be more troublesome."

"Don't worry, just come directly."

"Okay, anyway, if it hurts, you can tell me." Xie Jinxi got up and stepped into the high-humidity shower room, carefully avoiding his tail and squatting down.

"Where do I want to drag?"

"Here at the waist." Muta motioned for him to grab the edge of the old leather raised at the waist.

With Xie Jinxi's hand as a fixation, Muta crawled in the opposite direction for a certain distance, and the translucent old skin fell off from the tail.

In the process of peeling off the old skin from the scales, there was a continuous sound that made the scalp tingle.

It was like the sound of shaking a piece of plastic sheet back and forth, the sound of crackling firewood burning and exploding, and the sound of oil meeting water, Xie Jinxi almost got goosebumps when he heard it.

The sloughed off old snake skin is actually very easy to cause dense fear at first glance, because the snake slough on the scales on the back of the snake tail is darker in color, and the snake slough in the twisted area between the scales is lighter in color, densely arranged and neat. It's suffocating and feels weirdly beautiful.

The membrane on the abdomen of the snake's tail is arranged one by one, which is much more comfortable to look at.

The process of Muta's molting was actually very fast. In less than a minute, a complete snake slough with only the tail appeared in Xie Jinxi's hands.

The translucent old skin sloughs off, revealing the slightly damp new scales underneath. Under the light, the dark new scales reflect a metallic luster, which can be described as radiant and dazzling.

Xie Jinxi stared at the tail, couldn't help admiring in his heart, and raised his head to meet Muta's gaze.

"I would like to trouble you to help me tidy up here, I want to take a bath."

Xie Jinxi nodded, and together with Muta rolled up the floor bed, moved it out, packed it up, and prepared to take it down and throw it away next time when going out, and then went to the mall to get new sheets and quilts back.

Muta turned back and took a shower, and came out with a new shirt.

After the molting was over, Muta swept away the previous burnout and exhaustion, Xie Jinxi was startled when he snaked towards him.

I have to say that Muta's figure is really good, with broad shoulders, narrow waist, and a long and powerful snake tail just below the waist. The monster-like tail is strangely harmonious on him, just like a giant that survived from ancient times. The hunter still carries that fierce, savage and cruel beauty.

Muta came to his side, stared at him, and suddenly asked: "Are you hot? I noticed you were sweating just now in the bathroom. I thought it was because the temperature in the bathroom was too high, but now you are still sweating." .”

Xie Jinxi touched his neck and felt a thin hand of sweat. He was a little helpless and said, "It's the tattoo on the back, it's always hot there."

Saying that, Xie Jinxi turned her back to Muta, pressed her ridge through the clothes to the depression, and still felt painful and irritating when she touched it.He just wanted to move his finger away, but then he touched Muta's finger.

Muta's body temperature was always slightly low. He pressed the hot tattoo through his clothes, and the strange thing was that the tattoo was no longer hot.

"It's also because the soul connection between the two of us is a little out of control."

Muta moved his finger away restrainedly, and said, "We need to adjust it."

As he spoke, he suddenly smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment."

what?

Xie Jinxi reacted immediately.

No way, wouldn't Muta hear what he said in his heart before?

This time tattoos are not hot anymore, but Xie Jinxi herself has become a red shrimp.

The two sat down on the bed and began to try to debug. The two of them first tried to minimize the empathy between the two. To this extent, they were like two independent individuals.

Then slowly increase the degree of empathy. In the first stage, only the "words" that are "spoken" with the "voice" can be heard by each other. At this stage, there is almost no physical connection; the second stage is that most of the thoughts are shared. Can share with each other, and at the same time Xie Jinxi can share part of the senses including pain with Muta.

This means that when Muta is on Xie Jinxi's body, he can hear it or see it through Xie Jinxi's eyes.

But whether to continue the experiment, Xie Jinxi hesitated, he said: "I can feel, if the empathy is further improved, then I will synchronize your senses, I will have two 'bodies' at the same time, my consciousness is In my body, and in your body."

The problem is that if they fully empathize, they will synchronize their consciousness and senses in all directions, that is, two independent consciousnesses will be entangled.

So can the two entangled consciousnesses be separated?After separation, will it be affected by the other party and lead to personality changes?Or will the two consciousnesses form a new suture body consciousness?

"My gut tells me it's too risky and we shouldn't be trying this."

Muta spat out the snake letter, expressing his agreement.

After the debugging, Xie Jinxi and Muta also reached a consensus. Generally, the first stage will be kept. Entering the mission world will open the second stage, and the third stage will not be considered.

In addition, Xie Jinxi raised his hand, looking at the thin and slender hand with good flesh and bones, he said: "This time the harvest is still very big. In addition to the strengthening of our relationship after you shed your skin, I have also learned from you. Some soul cores were snatched from the school."

"These soul cores have their own uses. Some of them can realize some conceptual 'ropes' to hang people or ghosts, some can make people or ghosts rot from the inside, and some can make noises, affect lighting, etc. Wait for a small effect, at least make me no longer passive."

"After all, you have been sober, sane and decisive, and this is the fruit you deserve."

Xie Jinxi looked up at Muta, and found that Muta was also looking at him.

Xie Jinxi looked away, and Muta changed the subject: "However, my molting growth not only strengthens the connection with you, I can also directly contact invisible ghosts, which means that maybe you will see me in the future." Hand to hand with ghosts."

When Xie Jinxi heard the words, he thought of the scene he saw in the past when he came to Muta, the price of fighting with ghosts is always tragic. almost dying.

If he was really chased to a dead end by the ghost and asked Muta to fight the ghost hand to hand, Muta might be able to hold the ghost for a while, but he would almost certainly be seriously injured or even die. This would be like using Muta's life to delay his escape.

And if Muta is not allowed to go, will it be difficult for the two of them to die together in a desperate situation?As far as ghosts are concerned, there is not much difference between killing one and killing two. Of course, one can survive.

When Muta said it, he was already prepared to face this situation.

Xie Jinxi wanted to say that there was no need to be like this, but she opened her mouth, but fell silent again.

After a long time, he suddenly said firmly: "I won't make it to that point, absolutely not."

He looked at Muta earnestly and said, "I look forward to returning to the real world with you. We all have to live. After all, you finally waited for me, and I also... finally found someone who can accompany me to face life and death."

"I also hope to meet you again in reality, when you will no longer maintain the half-human half-snake form, and my body will no longer be filled with soul cores, and the relationship between us will no longer be that of feeding and being Feeding."

"You are just Muta, and I am just Xie Jinxi. We will become good friends and brothers. We will go to the movies together, eat hot pot, and then stroll under the gradually lit street lights of the city to digest food, and discuss some movie plots and current events. hotspots and the future."

Xie Jinxi found that Muta was still looking at him, his snake-like vertical pupils were locked on him, like a hunter dormant waiting for the opportunity, he said: "Okay."

After finishing some matters, the two went out to eat as usual, and went to move new sheets and quilts for Muta Mall.

When they turned back, the two were walking on the empty street, and the street lights in the city were turned on, making their shadows long.

After washing up at night and laying on the bed, thinking about the day, Xie Jinxi suddenly discovered a problem.

Wait, since Muta can hear him subconsciously praise him for his snake tail before the molting is over and before debugging, then why Xie Jinxi himself didn't hear anything other than the "words" that Muta deliberately "said" What about your thoughts and feelings?

When they were debugging, most of their thoughts could be heard by the other party in the second stage.

Different from the first stage, only the strong heartfelt intentionally emphasized that you want the other party to know can be known by the other party. In the second stage, only the heartfelt intentionally concealed will not be known by the other party.

At that time, Xie Jinxi hardly heard Muta's thoughts and feelings, and heard very few thoughts during the afternoon debugging, so...

What thoughts is Muta hiding on purpose?
