Seven Evil Slips Chapter 2:

The doorway is so dark and deep that you can't see the clues inside, but it doesn't matter, it won't be worse. When you have nowhere to go, just take the only way you can see.

Gitting his teeth, Kiyo wiped his nose with his hand, and walked there.

Behind, those figures panicked, pushing and shoving each other.

——It's over, she's going out.

——If you can’t get out, don’t panic.

——Stop her, stop her!

The word "Ah" was uttered in a long high-pitched voice, and the lingering sound did not stop. A slender figure was staggered and pushed out. Looking back, the rest of the figures waved their hands at it like chasing flies.

——Think of a way, think of a way, stop her!

The figure chased towards Kiyo for two steps, suddenly remembered something, turned back, groped to find Kiyo's two shoes, and put his left and right slender arms into them, like gloves.

When he reached the front of the lintel, Kiyo stopped for a moment, but rushed in anyway.

There is a black cave inside, with a faint light flickering in the mid-air directly in front of it, it is a floating dial, with a thin pillar erected on the stone surface, and the shadow of the thin pillar on the dial is aligned with the direction, just like on an ordinary clock. At twelve o'clock, and directly above the dial, there is a transparent funnel filled with fine white sand.

There was a small voice behind him, panting, saying: "Wait for me, I'm coming."

Kiyo turned his head and saw a slender figure, handing over a pair of shoes as if flattering him.

Kiyo wanted to grab it with his hands, but a flash of light flashed in his mind, his anger and displeasure were subdued, and he said softly: "It's you, I recognize your voice, you just wanted to help me."

Seeing that she didn't answer, the figure simply tied the shoelace in a knot and hung it around his neck, very happy: "Yes, yes, I am a good person, I will help you."

It's a ghost who believes this.

Kiyo calmly said: "You are so kind, which star slip are you? Which one are we receiving?"

The figure is just the simplest human form, without real hands. Its two thin and long arms stretched out, crossed in a distorted "seven" character.

"You call me Xiao Qi."

The seventh root.

That root is considered by Luo Ren to be the wisest one, it has been dormant for a long time, and it is in charge of the overall situation.

Liuyi climbed up Kiyo's back, and the vicious figure appearing in such a posture is even more frightening than the blue-faced and fang-like appearance.

She told herself to calm down, the most brilliant liar is not full of lies, but a lot of truth, so that you let your guard down, and then add key lies.

This is a strange and unfamiliar situation. This seemingly benign "little seven" may throw her a lot of information and guidance-she has to believe in these, but she can't believe them all.

Sweat dripped from the palm of his hand, Kiyo breathed a sigh of relief, and pointed to the clock: "Is that a watch?"

Xiaoqi said: "This is your ancient timer, called Guibiao, also called sundial. The hands of the watch are the shadow of the sun."

As soon as it said this, Kiyo understood. Earlier, in order to find the flying spine beast in Wuzhu Village, she had read the relevant introduction of the Forbidden City. On rainy days, the sundial cannot tell the time.

Kiyo pointed to the funnel: "Is this a clepsydra, and it's also timed?"

Xiaoqi said: "Yes, yes."

It lowered its voice: "I'm a good person, let me tell you, Phoenix Luan deducts points for 'death sacrifice' and 'living sacrifice', and death sacrifice is the most common and easiest. Over the years, you are not the first to try living sacrifice Yes, it's just that no one has ever succeeded."

Sure enough, not everyone wants to die. Before them, some people tried to seal the fierce Jane alive. Kiyo was a little excited: "Why didn't it work?"

"Because living is harder than dying."

That’s right, death is a one-and-done abandonment, and life is persistence in the face of difficulties.

Xiao Qi raised her thin arms, turned around in a circle, and said: "This is the mirage of the fourth view, the last step of the living sacrifice, and a way of life given by Fenghuang Luankou."

"Do you remember when I told you that in the real world, your time has stagnated, but here, you have been brought back to the original point?"

Kiyo nodded.

"How old are you?"

"Twenty-Four."

Xiao Qi pointed to the direction of the sundial: "Your first twenty-four years have been here, you have to repair it again."

"When you run towards the sundial, your life begins, from birth."

"The shadow of the sun will start to turn, and the clepsydra will start to leak sand. The moment when the leakage is over is the moment when you stagnate in the real world."

"You have been running, and you will experience your twenty-four years. They pass by you like meteors, but you will see the important fragments."

"You can stop, you can also apply power to change, but you can't stop for too long, this power can only be exerted on your past self. But I suggest you not, you change a little bit, your life There will be a huge change.”

"Finally, when you reach the end, there is a door, you can go out after you push it open."

Kiyo doesn't believe it: "It's so simple?"

"Yes. Also, you'd better run faster, if you arrive first, maybe you can help your friends."

"If it's just running, why didn't the previous dead men succeed?"

Xiao Qi is unwilling to say more: "You will know when you go in."

Then I can only run away, she understands what Xiaoqi said, her partners are going through the same situation as her - their lives cannot be changed, and they can finally reach the same end point and push open the door together.

Kishiro's heart swayed, and he ran towards the direction of the sundial: She doesn't want those ten thousand possibilities, and she doesn't want to exert any power to change, just keep her head depressed and run.

Just started, a loud baby cry made her stop suddenly.

There is a wave shadow like a water curtain on the side, which is the delivery room, with medical staff in old-fashioned white coats, and white and green walls.

She was born.

Who are her biological parents?

The sundial seems to be moving with her, always in front of her, and the white falling fine sand brushes over the dial, falling one by one at her feet.

She doesn't change anything, she just wants to know.

With trembling hands, Kiyo caressed the wave surface, and couldn't help himself, as if there was a huge gravitational force, pulling her over.

It was a noisy ward in the hospital. She saw the dirty mattress. Is that the little baby stretching out her arms and legs? Crying hard, suddenly, the unkempt woman next to him stuffed an empty pacifier into the baby's mouth.

That's...Xiang Silan?

A sister came to visit, wearing silk stockings, perming her hair, putting on lipstick, poking her fingers up and down with red nails, saying to Xiang Silan: "If you are so careless, you won this kind of jackpot, and business is not easy. "

Xiang Silan was also irritable: "I don't know whose seed it is, but I also swallowed the medicine, son of a bitch, I'm afraid it's fake medicine, I swallowed it and didn't conceive."

"Didn't I teach you to skip rope before?"

"I jumped, my life is hard."

As he spoke, he pushed the little babies aside in disgust.

Xiao Qi was right next to her, gurgling like bubbling, and asked her, "Let's go?"

Kiyo looked at Xiang Silan and said, "Let's go."

She retreated step by step, back into the dark corridor.

So, Xiang Silan is indeed her biological mother?

The tears couldn't help falling, Kiyo wiped them with his hand, and said to himself: It's okay, there have always been parents who don't love their children in this world, she just let it go.

She continued to move forward, and just after a while, a timid "Mom" suddenly came from beside her.

Kiyo shuddered, and suddenly felt that the scene was very familiar, without thinking, he stepped into the wave of shadows.

It is a low room in a dilapidated tube building in Nantian County. The living room is not lit, and the door of the bedroom is ajar.

She saw the three or four-year-old Kokiyo, with a shofar braid, standing by the door, holding his pants and twisting them hard, and said, "Mom, I'm really hungry and want to eat."

With a bang, the man's big-toed leather shoes smashed on the door, and the door was slammed shut, and a heavy roar came: "Go to sleep, and I will beat you if I talk again!"

Xiao Kiyo curled his lips, climbed back to the sofa, huddled in the corner, and kept twisting his pants hard, Kiyo heard her crying, low voice: "I'm not pretending to be hungry."

Kiyoki's eyes were blurred. When he walked to the door, he just kicked up. There was no sound of kicking the door, and the door was fine. Imposed on my past self."

Kiyo returned to the sofa with tears in his eyes, and knelt down* to look at Kiyo, feeling so distressed that he didn't know what to say, thinking in a trance, if there is a chance in the future, it would be nice to have a daughter, and he must be desperately in pain She, don't let her suffer a little bit.

Her name is Kokiyo: "Good boy."

Xiao Qi said: "She can't hear you, you can go up to her later."

Kiyo stretched out his hand to support Kokiyo's small face, before he could say anything, his eyes went dark, and when he lit up again, he looked down and saw his hand, small and fleshy.

In the next second, the feeling of hunger was overwhelming, no wonder Kokiyo kept twisting his pants.

Kiyo gritted his teeth: "Go, let's eat."

She moved the bench, stepped on it, opened the door, and trotted downstairs, it was already night, the store was locked, and she couldn't find anything to eat. After walking for a while, there was the smell of meat. Looking over, I heard a woman's voice: "Xiao Tongzi, eat another piece, take it."

There is a little boy's impatient voice: "I still eat... I can't eat it."

Then, I saw a little boy come out, kicking stones, gnawing a piece of cake, holding a piece in his hand, looking around for no one, and throwing the piece in his hand to the ground.

If you throw it away, just throw it away. It won't be dirty even if you dust it clean. Cake!"

You can't eat the dirty pancakes, Kiyo hates his teeth itching: "You threw it away!"

"Throw it away and I won't give it to you." The little boy squinted at her, "My mother said, your mother sells it. The things in the house are dirty, people are unclean, and they are all sick."

Hungry and angry, Kiyo kicked his knee, snatched the pancake from his hand, and pushed his head to the ground: "Eat! You ate the piece on the ground!"

The little boy refused to eat, Kiyo became angry, knocked his head to the ground, got up and left.

On the way back, I ate the cake in two or three bites, so I could make up for it.

When I went upstairs, my eyes suddenly went dark, and before I realized it, I was already standing aside.

Xiao Qi muttered on the side: "I told you everything, only for a while."

She saw Kokiyo standing on the stairs in surprise, her eyes widened, she gasped, and said to herself.

——"How did I get here."

——"Hurry up and go back to sleep, or mom will spank you."

She pedaled and ran upstairs, and when she reached the last level, she probably struggled to climb, her little **** pouted high.

Bo Ying appeared beside her, and Xiao Qi pulled her: "Let's go, we can't stay for a long time."

Kiyo let him drag him out, and the moment he entered Namikage, he suddenly said: "I should help her wash her hands."

After a while, Xiao Tongzi, mother and son will come to the door, and Xiao Kiyo will be beaten.

She sighed softly, and returned to the dark corridor. Xiao Qi had shoes hanging around her neck, leading the way ahead, bouncing around.

Kiyo was a little disappointed, not as fast as before, the sand was flowing on the board, she walked slowly, Hikage seemed to be moving too slowly.

Huo Zihong's gentle and gentle voice suddenly came: "I have seen these children. I think they are not suitable..."

Kiyo was shocked and turned his head instantly.

In the swaying waves, she saw the young Huo Zihong in the reception room, and Uncle Zhang was sitting next to him. The director of the nursery seemed to be very sorry: "There is another girl who sent me a while ago." Yes, I'm not in good health, and I've been sick and sleeping all the time. I guess...it's not suitable either."

Huo Zihong smiled: "Forget it, this kind of thing depends on fate, maybe the timing is not right."

…

No.

Kiyo's heart was beating hard.

Aunt Hong told her about adopting her back then, and said: "There are so many children, they caught your eye, and they were very quiet. One of them held his finger in his mouth, looking at me and smiling."

How could this little girl be sick and sleeping, and how could Aunt Hong say something like "Forget it, maybe the timing is wrong".

Aunt Hong won't adopt her anymore? Then where will she go in her future life?

…

At sunset, the dean sent Huo Zihong out and said, "Actually, you can try for a few more years. By then, medicine will be more advanced, and there may be hope. There is no rush to adopt."

Huo Zihong was still smiling gracefully, and Uncle Zhang rubbed his hands awkwardly. At this moment, the dean suddenly said: "Ah! Why did my daughter run out! She's not even dressed properly."

Following the sound, I saw a little girl standing in the corner of the front wall at some point, with her head tilted, as if she had just woken up, her clothes were wrinkled, the dean hurried over to help her button up , and lifted his pants up again.

The little girl kept looking at Huo Zihong, staring into her eyes.

Huo Zihong also looked at her.

After a while, she whispered to Uncle Zhang: "This little girl looks at me as if... I've known her for a long time..."
