Chapter 157 157. Cave

"Is there anyone?"

Qiao Mu was sure that he was not mistaken, that it was indeed a child.

Of course, in the Veil of the World, dreams can also become reality. Qiao Mu guessed that this child might also be the creation of some kind of dream.

"Noah, I'll go take a look, you stay here."

He left a message to the people on the boat and jumped off the boat.

Looking at other thriller adventure movies, Qiao Mu is the number one person seeking death.

It didn't matter to him. Anyway, for the sake of exploration, he had to do his best to check these unexpected situations.

Ah Xin glanced at Qiao Mu and jumped off the boat.

"Don't do it alone."

Having said that, she was quite curious, mainly because she wanted to know what Qiao Mu was going to do.

The two of them walked forward along the wet, moss-covered cave, and soon they lost sight of the aerostat.

The cave does not appear dark, because the moss actually emits fluorescence, illuminating the long and winding tunnel.

"There is such a complex underground structure here."

Ah Xin couldn't help but sigh.

From the outside, this is just a small floating island, and it is impossible to imagine the intricate structure inside.

"Maybe it's all part of the dream."

Qiao Mu said, bright red words kept popping up in his field of vision.

[This road leads to a not-so-friendly place, so be prepared, or you might spit out yesterday’s dinner! 】

Walked for more than ten minutes.

The two saw a faint light ahead, which seemed to be an exit.

When he arrived at the entrance of the cave, Qiao Mu looked out. He originally thought there might be a cliff in front of him, but he didn't expect that it turned out to be a rather vast underground space.

"Is this island really that big?"

Qiao Mu muttered, now he felt that this place was most likely part of a dream.

In the curtain of the sky, there is no difference between dreams and reality.

"Go down and take a look?"

Ah Xin glanced at Qiao Mu.

Anyway, she wasn't afraid of death, and Qiao Mu didn't seem to be afraid either.

The two of them joined together, one behind the other, and stepped into it.

Qiao Mu used [Funeral Parlor Rules] to materialize a nuclear-powered flashlight, which illuminated part of the cave.

He soon discovered that there were paintings on the walls of the cave.

Painted in an unknown red paint, the paintings show storms, giant worm monsters, ships, and beasts among the clouds.

Strangely, everything converged on a huge thing close to the ground.

The thing is not finished, and only the tip of the iceberg can be glimpsed from the picture, which is enough to witness its hugeness.

Just as Qiao Mu's flashlight moved to the left, trying to illuminate the remaining pictures, the moving light illuminated a person's face.

A man is standing there.

Qiao Mu's hands froze.

That was not the child before, but an adult. He was wearing rough linen clothes, just like a primitive tribesman.

If you look closely, you will find that this man's lips seem to have been cut off by something, exposing his strong white teeth. His eyes are widened, and even his eyelids seem to have been cut off. His cheeks are painted with red paint, making him look ferocious. Weird.

I don't know since when, this person has been standing there quietly, staring at Qiao Mu and A Xin.

"Hello?"

Qiao Mu said hello.

The other party did not respond, but walked forward, as if he was taking the two of them somewhere, toward the center of the cave.

Qiao Mu followed him, illuminating the road with his flashlight, and discovered that there were paintings on the ground.

These paintings are more abstract and seem to outline an extremely huge storm.

The other party walked to the center of the cave, and Qiao Mu saw that the messy brush strokes representing the storm disappeared here, replaced by a pothole.

He used a flashlight to illuminate the pit and found that it was full of bones.

There are more than a dozen skulls that can be directly seen with the naked eye. Obviously, at least a dozen lives are buried in this large pit.

There are still some relics among them, but after being assimilated by the decaying flesh and blood, there is nothing left that can be identified.

"Where did these bodies come from?"

Although he knew that what he was seeing now was most likely part of the dream, where the dream came from was a new question.

Ah Xin squatted down and stretched out his hand towards the bones.

The next moment, a tattered notebook appeared in her palm.

"Who's a serious person who keeps a diary?"

Qiao Mu asked subconsciously.

"I can extract memories from things."

Ah Xin explained and opened the diary.

The words above were words that Qiao Mu didn't recognize, and the Chosen Game thoughtfully translated them.

[On June expect. 】

[Sailing in the sea of ​​clouds was not as interesting as expected. The monsoons that appeared from time to time made the ship bumpy, which made people very uncomfortable. The food on the ship was quite fresh in the first few days, but after that it seemed the same and very painful. 】

[Encountered a storm. Although the captain said that the ship was strong enough to withstand it, the shaking deck still made people feel shaky. Many people vomited and the cabin was filled with a stench! 】

[The unprecedented huge storm caused the ship to capsize, and the yacht, which was said to never sink, was torn into pieces. I hugged my wife tightly, thinking that even if we die, we will die together. 】

[I didn’t die, but my wife was seriously injured. We fell to an island. There was nothing here. I could only watch her continue to bleed. 】

[She begged me to end her suffering, and I did. There was nothing on the island but the rocks, which were exceptionally hard. 】

[Damn it, when I picked up the stone from her plasma-covered head, I actually heard a burst of human voices. 】

[I saw her walking in from the outside and told me that she had discovered a quiet and fertile island. We soon arrived on the island, where the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and it was extremely comfortable. 】

[I lived a happy life with her, we had three children, some grandchildren, we found some survivors, we built villages. 】

[Before I died, I looked into her blue eyes. I knew very well that everything was just a dream, an illusion in my mind. At this moment, I might still be in that dark cave, waiting. Holding her corpse. 】

[But what’s the difference? 】

[I quickly took my last breath and lost my life, but I saw that I had stood up again and walked through the door. I held my wife's hand. I knew that we would be together forever. , regardless of each other. 】

Ah Xin closed the notebook, and the tattered notebook immediately disappeared like flying ashes.

She took out several more books, and the contents were similar.

Most of them encountered an accident while crossing the sea of ​​clouds in an aerospace boat, and then were captured by the weaved dream, and lived a happy life. But some people finally realized it, some people didn't, and some even realized it. Also act like you don’t know what to do.

In despair, even false joy can be addictive.

"So, these corpses may have been left by people who fell on this island, and these friends collected them and put them here?"

Qiao Mu didn't understand.

"Look at what it looks like here."

Ah Xin looked around and saw many primitive people wearing linen standing behind them.

"Does it look like an altar?"
