Chapter 5 Part Four: Strange and Inexplicable Relics

At this time, I acted very rudely towards Sinney, that's why I believed that Sinney was a murderer, so I don't need to be polite to him. Zinny woke up shortly after I kicked him.The small room is very dark, only the cigarette in my hand has a dark red light, and every time I take a puff of the cigarette, I can vaguely see Xinny struggling to sit up. (Strangely, at this moment, I suddenly couldn't help thinking that the stone chamber that goes seven floors underground, the lowest one, must never have any light. I kept thinking: Is it possible that the light from smoking a cigarette is like this now? Can't have both?)

After Zinny sat up, he groaned a few times. I took another puff of cigarette and saw Zinny stood up.I'm already thinking about how to ask him sternly about how he killed Bai Lai.But Xinny spoke before me, and to my surprise, when he spoke, his voice was full of joy, and he shouted: Bai Lai!It's you! I was stunned for a while, and for a while, I really didn't know how to answer.Psychologists say that no matter how cruel a murderer is by nature, when he thinks about the process of committing the murder, he will always have a certain amount of guilt in his heart.At this time, Sinney called me that, obviously he mistook me for Bai Lai, and Bai Lai died under his hands, why was he so happy?

Before I could figure out how to deal with such a weird situation, Xinni had already walked towards me, talking constantly, with extremely excited words: Bai Lai, you succeeded?how is it thereYou promised to come back and tell me, I know you will come back! Sinney is almost here!I had no choice but to step back, making a vague sound at the same time, perfunctory him.At that moment, I suddenly thought that if he kept mistaking me for Bai Lai, it might be easier for me to learn the truth about Bai Lai's death! What Sinney said at this time sounded completely meaningless, and he even kept repeating a meaningless question as he walked forward.

He couldn't stop saying: You know these days, what is the problem I can't figure out the most?Haha, what's the use of hair?You must already know, what is the use of human hair?Tell me, what's the use of hair, why don't you talk, what's the use of hair?Why do not you speak?What is the use of hair? What use is his grandma's hair! I kept retreating until my back touched the wall of the small room, and it was impossible to retreat. Then I said a word in a deep voice: stay away from me!This sentence was really useful, and Xinni stopped immediately, and remained silent for a long time.

After half a minute, Xinni's tone suddenly became very sad again: Why don't you let me approach you?You are not what you used to be.You forgot to promise me something? I took a slow breath and took another puff of the cigarette. At this time, Zinny was not very far away from me, less than five feet away.I could see the puzzled, mournful look on his face as the cigarette flared.I was afraid that he would recognize me, so I quickly moved the cigarette away.Fortunately, looking at Xinny's expression, he seemed to be intoxicated with a very important matter and didn't pay attention to me.

I think that the murderer, Sinney, must be in a state of schizophrenia at this time, or he would not have mistaken me for Bai Lai.Under such circumstances, I could pretend to be Bailey's ghost, scare him, and force him to tell the truth. So I said calmly: Xinni, no matter what I promised you, you killed me, you are the murderer!Sinney, don't you feel guilty at all?You killed your friend! I thought that these few words of mine would definitely have a certain effect. Xinni might cry bitterly and kneel in front of me to repent, but unexpectedly, Xinni cried out full of grievances. :what are you saying?kill?kill?

When he mentioned the word kill, it seemed that this word was very unfamiliar to him, and he didn't understand what it meant to kill.Then, he said again: "Bai Lai, I was supposed to go. I couldn't compete with you, so I gave you the first place. I really don't understand what you are talking about!" I should have gone, I can't compete with you, and similar words, when Bai Lai's body was found on the river beach, I also heard Zinny say it, but I still don't know what it means.Then he repeated it again, but I still didn't understand what it meant. I stretched out my hand and pointed at his chest: You are here with me, stabbed a knife!

Xinni immediately said, "Yes, that knife was stabbed so correctly that your heart stopped beating almost immediately!" In my life, I can say that I have met countless stubborn and cruel people, but I have never met a person who is full of appreciation when mentioning his brutal behavior like Xinni.I really had nothing else to say, so I had no choice but to emphasize my tone, and said: You killed me!You are a murderer! This sentence had an effect, and as soon as the words came out, Xinni quickly backed away.I was afraid that he would turn around and run away again, so I quickly reached out and grabbed the clothes on his chest.Sinney cried out: You are not Bailey, who are you?He gasped, and then said hopefully: Are you sent by Bailai?What did i do wrong?Why do you keep saying I killed him?

When the matter developed to this point, I really felt a burst of sadness in my heart.Zinny is a madman!He stabbed Bai Lai's heart with a knife, but he didn't know what he did wrong! I grabbed him tightly with one hand, took out the lighter with the other, and lit it: Xinni, do you still know me? Sinney stared at me. In the past 20 days, my appearance had changed a lot, but he recognized me after looking at me for a while!This, however, proves that his intelligence is quite normal.When he recognized me, he struggled a bit, but I held him so tight that he couldn't break free.Then, like a deflated balloon, he suddenly became dejected: It's you, you don't understand, you don't understand!

I'm still holding on to him, but I turn so that Shinny turns his back on the wall and pins him against it.I said: Of course I don't understand, that's why I came back to you after all the hard work. What I don't understand is: why did you kill Bai Lai! Xinni showed a very bitter smile, and said: I said you don't understand, you really don't understand!I killed Bailey?Why do you keep using the word kill? I was really angry and funny: OK, then please tell me, when a person stabs another person's heart with a knife, what words should be used to describe this action?

Xinni blinked, and remained silent for a while. I turned off the lighter, and my eyes became dark. In the darkness, I could hear Xinni muttering: You don't understand, you don't understand! My anger rose uncontrollably: Forget it if I don’t understand, I don’t need to understand, the police don’t need to understand, and the judge doesn’t need to, they will convict you. Just like the last time I caught Sinney and referred the police, he struggled violently again, but this time, he couldn't break free, but I pushed him and walked out. Although Xinni was struggling hard and shouting loudly, I kept pushing him out of the ancient temple and into the open space where hundreds of people had gathered. No one paid attention to us all the time. I kept pushing, pulling, and dragging Zinny forward. It took nearly an hour and I only covered a mile or so. Zinny looked exhausted and had stopped struggling. I was also very tired, but still Hold on to him.Panting for breath, Xinni said in a hoarse voice: If I told you the story in detail from beginning to end, would you believe it? I said: Then it depends on what you say! Sinney lowered his head and remained silent.After a long while, he said: It started with a Nepalese man named Bain who sold antiques to me and Bai Lai. , I just want to get him back to Kathmandu, hand him over to the police, and then I will concentrate on investigating the relationship between Bain and the king, and figuring out the origin of the mysterious seven-story underground building.But at this time, Sinney mentioned Bain as soon as he opened his mouth.That was extremely unexpected. Bayne, the mysterious sculpture and the seven-story subterranean building and his relationship with the king; Sinney and Bailey;I didn't know there was a relationship between the two things until I heard those few words from Zinny! Xinni looked at me with a very helpless look, I nodded and said: You can go on! Xinni said: That day, in the afternoon, Bai Lai and I were together, and a Nepalese man named Bain was selling antiques to us. Bai Lai suddenly felt very interested, and agreed without even asking the guy what antiquities it was. I said: Bain didn't tell you what kind of antiquity it was. Xinni said: No, in fact, Bai Yin himself didn't know what it was. It was only later that Bai Lai and I knew what it was. I endured it, and didn't ask why Sinni wanted to kill Bai Lai immediately, and asked: What is that?real antiquities? Sinney took a long breath: The real ancient relic is as old as human beings lived on the earth, so I don't know how many years ago Sinney looked at me: Guess how many years ago it was?Guess, how many years have we continued our lives on the earth from generation to generation? Xinny started talking crazy again, I shook his body, and Xinny seemed to wake up from a dream: Where did I go? I said coldly: You talked about the ancestors of human beings starting to live on the earth. If you continue to talk like this, I don’t know when and what month it was before you talked about what happened between you and Bai Lai! Xinni said: You don't understand, maybe you will understand after seeing that ancient artifact. My heart moved. That ancient object was a sacred object stolen by Bain.The old man who died under Bain asked Bain to get it back, but Bain said that he had sold it to someone and could not get it back. It turned out that the holy object was sold to Bai Lai and Xinni.It seems that this sacred object has a great relationship with the future encounters between Bai Lai and Xinny. Anyway, Xinny speaks a bit incoherently. Then, looking at this strange sacred object may help to solve the mystery in my heart. I nodded and said: Okay, where is it? Xinni said: I hid under Bai Lai. I'm a little angry, this guy didn't mention it at all last time!Xinni also saw that I was blaming him, and hurriedly said: This is a secret between Bai Lai and me, and we promised never to mention it to anyone! I laughed and said: Do I swear to God before you take me to see that thing? Xinni looked very bitter and shook his head: "It's not funny at all, sir, it's not funny at all!" I didn't have time to care about his attitude at that time, but I was excited by the sudden connection between the two things I was going to do. I asked: How long have you known the Nepalese who sold you the antiques? ? Xinni was taken aback for a moment, and said: "I don't know him at all, and Bailey doesn't know him either. It's just that he came to sell to us. I waved my hand and didn't let him go on, because it sounds like Bailey, Xinni and The situation when Bai Yin met was the same as the first time I met Bai Yin. I watched Sinney all the way, and walked a few miles forward. During that time, Sinney kept his mouth shut and kept silent.After walking for a few miles, I used a lot of money to lure a British couple who were driving out of the car, and then borrowed their car, and Sinney and I drove towards the river beach. When we arrived at the river beach, it was the time when the sun was setting in the west. The red sunset glow reflected on the snow-capped mountains, reflecting a strange brilliance, which made people feel like they were in a dream world.However, I was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery in front of me. Once I arrived at the destination, I opened the suitcase and found two tools that could barely be used for digging. I threw one to Xinni and shouted: Dig quickly! Zinny took the tools and started digging with me.When I left last time, I just buried Bai Lai's body carelessly, so it was very easy to dig it up now, and it didn't take long before I saw Bai Lai's body.The interval between before and after was less than a month, but because the burial was not good enough, Bai Lai's body, the part that could be gnawed, had all become food for gophers, leaving only thick bones.At this time, the sky was getting dark rapidly, and the gloomy light reflected from the snow ridge was reflected on the white bones, which seemed extremely desolate and terrifying. After seeing Bai Lai's skeleton, I looked at Sinni for a long time to see if he had a guilty look, because he killed Bai Lai.But Sinney didn't feel apologetic at all.He put down the tools, and together with the two of us, we pulled the old felt, and lifted up Bai Lai's skeleton.Under the bones, there is another square hole, and in that hole, there is a black lacquered box. I glanced at Zinny, and Zinny nodded, and I jumped into the pit and reached for the box. It was a metal box, very heavy, and it took all my strength to lift it.At this time, I saw Xinni's expression, with a strange tension, his mouth moved, as if he was muttering to himself.After I took the iron box, I jumped onto the dirt pit. Xinni had already bent down and removed the lid of the box.When he removed the lid, I noticed that the lid and the edge of the box were molded very well, and the workmanship was very delicate, not a rough handmade product. After the box lid was opened, although it was already dark, I could still see the contents of the box.For a split second, I really couldn't figure out what it was. At first glance, the square thing in the box is composed of many thin layers, and it is so heavy, it looks like a transformer commonly known as a fire bull, but I immediately realized that it was not a transformer, but something else, because in it On the top, there are many filaments like hair.This seems very weird, you may wish to think about it, a transformer is covered with hair, what shape is that? I gave Zinny another look, and Zinny kind of stared straight at the thing.I said: Well, what is this?As I said that, I tried to grab those hairs and pull that thing out.But as soon as I grabbed those hairs, Xinni cried out suddenly, and pushed my hand away very roughly. I watched him carefully lift the thing out and put it on a relatively flat stone. superior. After the whole thing was taken out, it was about half a foot square, he waved to me, and then groped for the bottom of the thing, and suddenly there was a slap, and the upper part of the thing with hair on it bounced off Well, for some reason, I have been using hair to describe those filaments, perhaps because those filaments not only look like hair, but also feel exactly like hair. Therefore, at this time, the upper part of the thing suddenly bounced off. In my opinion, it felt like a person's skull was suddenly uncovered.It was a very indescribable feeling, which made people feel a chill. I have come to Xinni's side, so I can see the situation inside that thing at a glance.I can't even describe what's inside that thing, I can only roughly say that it's full of extremely tiny, glowing crystals. Those crystals are luminous, the colors are blue, white, yellow and red, and they are constantly flashing in a very rapid and orderly manner.I was really stunned, because no matter from any point of view, this thing is not an antique, but an industrial product of a high industrial standard. It looks like a shrunken computer, and this computer is working operate! I was full of doubts: Is this what Ba Yin sold you?What kind of antiquity is this? Xinni took a breath: Yes, when Bai Lai and I opened the box, we thought the same way, we just thought it was Bain's trick, but we didn't intend to pursue it, so we just put the box in the box. Beside where we sleep. Xinni said: After a few days, Bailey and I dragged it out and used it as a pillow to sleep on. That night, he and I both had a dream. I tried to be as patient as possible, listening to Sinney talking and observing the thing carefully, but neither came to a conclusion.At this time, it was completely dark, the wind was blowing up, and it was very cold. I wanted to suggest that Sinney go to the car to continue his narration, but I said it twice, and Sinney seemed not to hear it at all.I had no choice but to let him, turned up my collar, half turned around, and turned my back to the cold wind. Xinni said: Dreaming is a phenomenon that everyone has. I think, have you ever had a dream? I wanted to ridicule Zinny, but I saw Zinny was very serious, so even though his question was stupid, I answered him very seriously: Of course I did! Xinni said again: Have you ever tried a dream after waking up, and the situation in the dream is completely remembered, as if you have really experienced it? I said: Sometimes, there will be such a situation! Shinny smiled wryly: Have you ever had the same dream as another person?Exactly the same?When you want to tell this dream to the other party, can the other party tell each of you a sentence and retell the whole dream? After hearing this long question from Sinney, I had to shake my head: I have no such experience. Sinney sighed, and brushed his hair disheveled by the cold wind: This is a very strange experience. Both Bai Lai and I were stunned, thinking that it was an almost impossible coincidence. We discussed it that day. After a day, I feel that the connection between us is that we have both put our heads on this box. I nodded: Are you trying to use this box as a pillow again? Xinni said: Yes, on the second night, the situation was the same as the previous night. We had the same dream, and the content of the dream was also the same as the previous night.We didn't believe the content of that dream at first, but for seven or eight nights in a row, it was all like that. When Sinney spoke up to this point, he raised his head and looked at me: In such a situation, what would you do? I thought about it for a while: You seem to have been hypnotized. If someone told you to do something in that dream that kept repeating, you may have been urged by your subconscious mind to do what you were told! Sinney listened attentively, and when I finished speaking, he remained silent.I took a breath: what did you dream about?Is someone asking you to kill each other? Xinni was taken aback for a moment, apparently he didn't know what I meant by that, but he understood immediately, and he shook his head: No, where did you think!There was no Bailey in the dream at all, it was just a very strange I'm waiting for him to tell the story of the dream he and Bailey had together.But Zinny stopped suddenly, looked at me, and said, "It's useless, you never had such a dream, and you will never believe me when I tell you what the dream is about."The best way is yourself. He said here, looking at me with a kind of consulting eyes.Although I am eager to know the content of the strange dream of Sinney and Bailey, because I can be sure that the death of Bailey and all kinds of unexplainable strange actions of Sinney are related to that dream.But I also agree with Zinny's suggestion that I want to experience the dream myself, which is much better than Zinny narrating it! I thought about it: If I use this box as a pillow, will I have the same dream? Sinney replied: At least me and Bai Lai are like that, because the thing is too bizarre, so we didn't find someone else to try it! I closed the hair part of the thing, put it into the iron box, held the box in both hands, and walked towards the car.Sinney followed me obediently.We got into the car together, and I drove back to Kathmandu.On the way, I said to Xinni: When you saw me, you thought I was Bai Lai resurrected, why was that? Xinni's answer was very simple, but it was also elusive. He said: Because Bai Lai promised to come back and find me!He obviously also noticed my puzzled look, so he immediately added: After you also had that dream, you will understand! I didn't ask any more questions, looked at the box next to me, and concentrated on driving.When I say concentrate on driving, I mean I try to restrain my thoughts and not think about anything else.In fact, I thought about so many things that when the car drove safely into the streets of Kathmandu, even I couldn't believe it was so smooth! I parked the car at the entrance of a hotel, motioned to Sinney to hold the suitcase, and walked into the hotel lobby together. I went to the cabinet and asked the staff for a room. At the same time, I called the British couple to pick it up. back to their car.Just as I was going through the formalities, I suddenly heard a commotion from the lobby of the hotel, and a voice I was very familiar with shouted: "Hey, we have made an agreement. Both money and goods are settled. You buy it." Things can not be returned! I immediately turned around and saw Bain. Bain was still in the same finery I had seen him in at the palace.But obviously since that day, he has been wearing this suit and never took it off.So the clothes, though gorgeous, were dirty and wrinkled.He was backing away, and in front of him was Zinny.Xinni was still holding the iron box in both hands, and was walking forward, obviously wanting to say something to Bayin, but Bayin was still yelling, "I can't go back, even if I wanted to, I wouldn't." Money back to you! As Bain kept saying this, I had some idea of ​​what was going on.I knew that Sinney must have seen Barin while he was waiting for me to go through the formalities.Zinney might have something to ask Bain.So walked over to Bain.And when Bai Yin saw Xinni, he immediately recognized the iron box in Xinni's hand, which was an antique he had sold.Bain must have thought that Sinney had been tricked by him and wanted to trouble him, so he backed away and yelled that he could not return the product. Of course I knew that Xinni definitely didn't want to return the goods to Bain, but Bain's reaction was so strange that at least I knew one thing, that is, Bain himself didn't know what the antiquities he sold were! At this time, I was in a very embarrassing situation.Ba Yin is the person I'm looking for. I saw him here at this time, and I wished for it. I should rush out and catch him immediately.However, I was the one who was invited out by the king's personal order. The king invited me out, and Bain must have known about it. As soon as I showed up, things would be in trouble. Just as I was hesitating and imagining how to do it, things changed again.Ba Yin stepped back and yelled loudly, which had attracted the attention of many people.And Bai Yin's expression seemed even more flustered.Zinny was still walking towards him.When Bayin saw the two security guards, his expression became even more flustered. He yelled suddenly, and instead of backing back, he rushed forward. Debain rushed forward, and the two security guards immediately went to grab him, but they didn't catch him all at once, which made Debain's movements even more flustered and swift. Xinni uttered a cry, and he bumped him to one side, and the box he was holding in both hands fell down.Because of Bayin's rampage, the hotel lobby suddenly became chaotic. As soon as I saw the iron box fall to the ground, I knew that something was bad, so I hurried forward.When I came to Sinney, I saw Sinney standing dazed, his eyes fixed on the ground. Under his feet, the iron box had already fallen apart.The unknown thing in the box also fell out of the box and split into two halves. The half with hair was rapidly bursting out many small sparks and making a slight explosion sound.Many small crystals in the other half were also scattered on the ground.The continuous sparks attracted the attention of another security guard, who shouted loudly: Hey, what is this?He screamed and ran over. In such a situation, I must act decisively!I immediately stretched out my hand and grabbed Sinni's arm: go!I pulled him forward and rushed out.At this time, the chaos in the lobby became even worse. Xinni and I ran out of the hotel easily, turned a corner, and stopped. Xinni looked very depressed. He looked at me and murmured: It's over!It's over!You won't believe me no matter what I say! As soon as I saw that the unknown thing in the box was damaged, I already knew that I would not be able to experience the dream that Sinney and Bailey had experienced.But at the same time, I also believed what Sinney said, that he had indeed had a strange dream.Otherwise, he wouldn't be so sure, so confident. So at this time, I went to comfort him instead, and I patted his shoulder: It doesn't matter, as long as you tell me the truth without reservation.No matter how ridiculous things are, I can accept it. Xinni didn't make a sound, lowered his head, and kicked the road with his toes: "It's all my fault. I met Bai Yin and wanted to ask him for another same ancient relic. Who knew that he suddenly became nervous." I shook my head and said: I don't think even Bai Yin knows what it is, so leave him alone, the dream you and Bai Lai had Xinni raised his head, looked at me for a while, and then said: Originally, I wanted to wait for you to experience this dream by yourself, but now he seemed to be thinking about how to word it, so I didn't bother him, and after a while, He said: This is an experience that is difficult to describe in words. I try my best to say it, it is really difficult to express in words, really. I said: I believe you.While we find a place to rest, you tell what happened to you. Sinney nodded, and as he and I walked forward, Sinney began his narrative. When I was halfway through, I was completely stunned. I really couldn't believe what he was saying was true, and I had to use great restraint to prevent myself from interrupting him.After he finished speaking, I felt like I was in a dream, and I didn’t know how many times I went around the street with him before I agreed to a Nepali’s ride, and when I arrived at the Nepalese’s house, I found a place to stay. place.As the two of us sat on the rough felt in a small room, Zinny asked me: How do you feel? My mind was very confused, and after a while, I said: I want to listen to your narration again from the beginning to the end. Sinney: Why?you do not believe? I took a breath: Xinni, you should know that everything you just said is completely beyond the scope of human knowledge. , adding my own ideas! Sinney nodded silently, took out a pack of marijuana cigarettes, handed me one, and we smoked together.Cannabis is highly sedative and can slow a person's perception of time.After smoking marijuana, you can describe a complicated matter more calmly and in more detail.
