Chapter 22 - Flying Grievances (1)
Li Ruoxi actually took out an alarm clock, and this alarm clock is the one in the room upstairs.
But I didn't complain immediately. I took a closer look and noticed that the clock's timing had changed. The clockwise minute hand didn't move any faster. Instead, it moved backwards until it was exactly the same as my watch!
In other words, all the illusions he had seen just now had disappeared, and the time inside the Villa and the outside world had completely corresponded to each other.
Then I looked around and sure enough, the room had changed. All the furniture in the room had begun to age, to creak on the floor, and the walls had begun to fall out of color. There were also places where the walls were connected to the floor, as if the furniture had become ten years old.
I walked to the window and pulled open the curtains. It was the same outside, as long as the things related to the Villa were constantly changing, the fountain outside the courtyard would have already dried up, and some of the potted plants would have died long ago.
I clearly remember when the bicycle had first entered, the courtyard in front of the Villa was still green and lush, and in the blink of an eye, it had become lifeless.
At this time, Li Ruoxi had already reached the entrance of the basement. Before I could call for her, she had already left.
What did this mean?
Wasn't this girl too daring? Shouldn't a normal person run away when faced with such a situation?
No matter what, I brought this girl with me, it's not possible to let a person in, I couldn't think too much about it. I also followed into the basement, but upon entering, I discovered that there were a lot of changes in the basement, the staircase to the underground was pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly. I remember the last time I saw the female protagonist come in, there were still a lot of lamps hanging around basement. Although they weren't considered bright, at least there was some light.
As I walked, I felt something being stepped on under my feet. It was sharp and hard, while some things were soft. As I couldn't see the road in front of me, every time I touched something, my mind would be filled with all sorts of scenes.
When I stepped on something hard, I thought of a wooden board and something soft, but it always reminded me of a piece of meat that had fallen from a dead person's body, and it also had a sort of viscous feeling to it.
I remember someone saying that the imagination of humans is rich, especially when they can't see, they are filled with fear of the unknown, this phrase can be said to be extremely vivid in my experience. A Corridor that is only ten meters in length feels like I have walked a hundred meters race, it feels like a long time.
Just say it's a hero saving a beauty, or at least know where the beauty is, right? I immediately shouted to Li Ruoxi in front of me: "Damn, can't you walk a little slower? Why do I feel like this place is leading to hell?
After I finished shouting, I heard Li Ruoxi's footsteps still stomping down, and didn't have the slightest intention to stop. I then felt in my pocket, it truly was a drizzling rain, I didn't even bring a lighter today!
In just one breath, I rushed all the way to the lowest level of basement. I don't know how long I ran, in fact, it might have been a few seconds, but it felt like it was a long century, after all, I ran all the way to the bottom, my legs slipped and I sat down on the ground.
I stood up and rubbed my butt as I muttered, "Girl, I'll remember you. You're bringing me into the pit. If it wasn't for you today, I wouldn't have fallen down!"
When I touched my butt and felt the place was slippery, I flung my arm and immediately heard Li Ruoxi who was in front of me cry out, as if I had thrown some dirt onto his face.
The reason I could see her glaring at me was because Li Ruoxi had suddenly opened up a flashlight. When she came down earlier, she obviously had a flashlight, and had to only be used now!
Of course, this wasn't a very surprising thing. What surprised me was that Li Ruoxi's face was covered in blood, as if she had been severely injured.
