Chapter 1876 The bracelet that crushed the sternum
Chapter 1876 The bracelet that crushes the sternum
On Bohemian's wrist, there is an opal bracelet.
Mixed in dozens of jingling and complicated jewelry, this green bracelet is inconspicuous; in fact, even if it is very eye-catching, the puppeteer will naturally not care about a fish next to him or a piece of debris.
Wearing something.
Therefore, he couldn't tell on which day the bracelet gradually turned red.
It's as if someone injected bright red blood into the cat's eye stone. Every day, the red blood saturates and expands; every time the green stone is swallowed, Bohemia's complexion becomes paler.
Every day, she would draw a thin mark with the tip of her pen along the boundary between blood red and translucent green. After drawing four or five marks, both she and the puppeteer could see that the remaining green on the bracelet was
, after about fifteen days, it will be completely replaced by blood red.
That night, they stopped in a patch of sand.
The bonfire flickered on and off as it jumped, and the orange-red sparks were like dreams emerging from the night, drifting under the dark blue sky. Beside the bonfire, neither the people nor the dolls moved, only the long figures struck by the firelight on the sand.
The long shadow is swaying gently.
Bohemia sat cross-legged on the ground, hesitating, and glanced at the puppet master cautiously.
"Sir, I have something to tell you..." She turned the half-red and half-green bracelet in her hand, lowered her head and said, "This... is something I found in the endless forest of Lava...
"
The puppeteer didn't say a word, as if he didn't hear him.
He did not respond, but Bohemia continued as if he had received some kind of permission: "I was lucky at the time, and it couldn't be more suitable for me, because one of its functions is to predict the wearer's remaining health.
Natural lifespan…”
After life is divided into five periods, each period becomes a new natural lifespan. The past four periods of life have no meaning to Bohemia - she does not even feel that they are herself - the only one that truly belongs to her
His fifth period of life now only has half a month left.
"The end of this life is coming earlier than I thought..." She said softly, sounding not like she was scared, but rather confused. "That's right, even if the upper limit of life span is more than two hundred
Years old, how many people can live to reach the upper limit?"
"Tell the important point."
The puppet master's gloomy and cold voice startled Bohemia and brought her out of her trance.
She clutched the bracelet tightly, her knuckles turning white.
Bohemia took a deep breath, and when she raised her head, her eyes were wet and bright, like a pair of blood rubies soaked in water.
The tint of pink on her lips, the frizzy golden-brown hair floating in the air, the embroidery patterns on the cuffs and skirt corners... all seemed to have been vibrated by a common string, rippling and sparkling like water waves.
When the waves break, she will break too.
"Sir...after fifteen days, can you put this bracelet away and give it to Lin Sanjiu?"
*
Lin Sanjiu had never seen any stone that was so red that it was almost like blood.
It was hard and cold against the palm of her hand, as if a hole had been opened in her palm. All the blood from her body poured out and fell into the stone bracelet, leaving her own empty and dry body.
No wonder it looks so much like a piece of coagulated blood.
She wanted to hold the bracelet tightly and protect it, but she also wanted to squeeze it into pieces until it turned into powder.
Lin Sanjiu pressed it on her chest and unknowingly she bowed like a shrimp on the ground; it was not enough, even if the stone bracelet hurt her sternum, she still felt that it was not enough - if she kept adding more force, she would crush herself.
Will she feel better if she crushes her sternum, presses the bracelet all the way into her flesh and blood?
I will.
From the distant wind, there came intermittent strange sounds, which did not sound like they were coming from humans, but more like howling and whimpering of wolves.
In the chaos, something soft fell on her face - that was the last detail that Lin Sanjiu remembered. Before she could realize what had happened, she fell into a darkness of relief and happiness.
inside.
I don't know how much time passed, but when she regained consciousness again, she opened her eyes and felt that her eyelashes and eyelids were pressed gently, and then she realized that her eyes were still covered with a soft cloth.
For several seconds, Lin Sanjiu's mind was in a daze due to lack of oxygen, but her mood was very calm. She did not remember what she was holding in front of her chest.
She didn't have the strength to get up, and she didn't want to reach out and lift the soft cloth from her face. She felt that the world had melted, and it seemed as if she had melted herself, turning into a shapeless puddle of water on the gray hard floor tiles.
"Are you awake?" The puppet master's voice was very calm, hoarse and cool.
"Bohemia," Lin Sanjiu remembered and whispered, "Bohemia..."
"If you want to listen to me, then shut up."
Lin Sanjiu stopped talking - her mind was in a state of confusion at the moment, she didn't know what the puppet master was going to say or what he had to say, but someone gave her an order and she obeyed.
"Think about it with your mind. If I just leave you a relic, she will be full of garbage." Through the soft darkness brought by a piece of fabric, only the voice of the puppet master floated in the melted world.
."So I asked her why she gave you this bracelet."
Why?
"What...what do you mean?" Lin Sanjiu was startled by her own voice. She took off the cloth from her face, but still didn't dare to raise her eyes for a moment, staring at the floor tiles and asked: "How did she answer you?
"
The puppeteer whispered: "She said that this is of great significance to her. She said that you will understand it in the future and asked you to keep it well."
Lin Sanjiu got up from the ground. When he sat down, he was already out of breath. "What will I understand? What is the meaning of preserving it?"
"How do I know? I seem to be here to help you solve your doubts?" The iron-grey light flashed slightly in the corner of the puppet master's eyes. He slowed down his voice again and said: "On the fifteenth day, her clothes,
Special items, jewelry...are all piled on the ground as they are, except for one person inside."
Lin Sanjiu was startled. "The person is missing? No body? Could she - maybe she didn't -"
The puppeteer turned his head away and remained silent.
Lin Sanjiu's voice gradually trailed off, and she still didn't finish her sentence. After all, Bohemia's life had been disrupted by the flood; she had no idea what the lack of corpses could mean.
She just didn't expect that in the world of Lava, she thought it was just two months of separation...the two months that she wanted to fulfill the gift package and give him some alone time...it dragged on for several years and finally ended.
All her hopes of meeting Bohemia again.
In the copy of Play House, the scene when everyone was making the floor in the kitchen was still so clear; it was so clear that when she stretched out her hand, she seemed to be able to touch Bohemia's thick hair, pressing it warmly on her arm.
.
"for you."
She didn't know how long she had been in a daze until a small thing was thrown into her hand.
"The garbage she left on the ground is all in there."
After a while, the puppet master said again: "Recover your strength... don't keep sitting here and dragging me down."
Lin Sanjiu was in a daze and put the bracelet and the storage key into cards. There were only a few lines of words on the card of the bracelet. Apart from the function mentioned by Bohemia, she didn't read anything else.
When I came out, I naturally couldn't think of what important significance it had to Bohemia - even after death, Lin Sanjiu had to keep it.
She really wanted to have a little hope, but she didn't dare to have hope.
She also wanted to touch her bohemian hair again.
When I originally planned the plot, I didn't expect that Schrödinger's Bohemia would appear... To be honest, writing this chapter made me feel uncomfortable...
