Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 455: Words on tombstone

The simple meal ended quickly. Although there was not much food, everyone was satisfied and grateful. After all, the value and significance of a glass of water in the desert and a glass of water by the lake certainly cannot be compared.

After putting down the fork, Saul took the three of them to express his sincere gratitude to the tombstone woman.

She remained unmoved, took the dinner plate away, and took it to the cubicle to wash it.

Saul raised his eyebrows, feeling that the cubicle seemed a bit magical, and he could even wash things in it.

After a while, the tombstone woman returned with four smooth dinner plates, and continued to devote herself to the business of cleaning the table, as if Sol and others did not exist. Since the owner ignored it, it was inevitable for a few people to sit there a little embarrassed, obviously everyone should say goodbye.

So several people bid farewell to the owner and left this weird building.

As soon as everyone left the house, the door behind them suddenly closed by themselves.

After going back and trying, everyone found that the door that could be opened before was obviously locked, well, this should be a closed door to thank guests.

On the way back to the beach, except for Sol, the other three are obviously in a good mood.

Especially the two sisters and brothers of Sereo, they think that the tombstone woman may be specifically helping others in the rules, maybe they will be able to eat every day in the future. Elisa walked by and would interject words from time to time, and the three of them had a lively discussion.

For the three of them, this trip can be regarded as some gains.

The hungry blade that seemed to hang between everyone's necks, although I dare not say that it disappeared, at least it was temporarily relieved.

"Why, Captain, your expression is still a bit heavy? Do you think our guess is possible? That tombstone head may serve us a barbecue every day?" Seeing Sol frowned and was silent, Jelabi came over and took it warmly. Live on Thor's shoulder.

"Don't call other people's tombstone heads so bad, don't forget that we are still in the rules. And are you sure you want to know what I think? If I say it, it may make you feel even more depressed than before!" Saul smiled flatly.

Frustrated than before? Before coming, everyone was exhausted by hunger, but now Saul's thoughts are worse than then? Everyone looked at each other, and didn't know what Saul thought of, and shouldn't let him speak.

"Captain... Then let's not talk about it?" Jelabi gave a cold sullen inexplicably fearful.

"Let’s talk about it, our esteemed captain, what's the whimsy? It’s okay, as you said before, as long as something has happened, or has a great possibility of happening, we can’t be regarded as it. It doesn’t exist and can only be faced in the end.”

Cereo pulled away his brother Gerabi, and sat down with his legs slanted on the spot, listening. Recently, everyone has become accustomed to being in a state of sitting and self-cultivation at any time, not to be lazy, but to reduce their own activities to avoid hunger in the body.

Elisa also sat down next to her, and Gerabi looked around, and could only involuntarily accept Thor, a topic that was probably unpleasant. Sol's gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the team one by one, and then sat cross-legged across from them.

"I know everyone is having a hard time during this period. Today I finally encountered something... well, it's a good thing to be easy."

"You want to stay in this mood for a little longer, there is nothing wrong with it. But as the captain, I always have the obligation to destroy your good mood. Although I don't want to do that, but there is no way, because we are running out of time. Up."

"This mountaintop exploration, to be honest, does not make much sense in my opinion, because our original intention was not to come here to find a place to eat, but to find the owner of the rules or to understand its demands, but obviously we did not get the expectations in the end. the result of."

"It's a surprise to have a barbecue suddenly, and what you discussed should be right. The building may open every day, which means everyone can come once a day. But to be honest, it's not very useful, because the food is not enough. To support survival."

"Let’s not discuss the purpose of the tombstone woman doing this? If the matter of coming here to eat barbecue becomes a daily routine in the future, but with that small amount, we will still become weaker and weaker from the physical level, and That meat..."

"What's the captain? Are you saying that the meat is poisonous?" Jerabi was bluffed by Sol's words and couldn't help but interrupt.

"It’s not poisonous, it’s just... forget it, it’s not important. Following the topic I just talked about, we will eventually become weaker and weaker, but there is a fixed battle waiting for us every day, so I’ll do it for everyone. Several methods of death were arranged."

"One is that eating barbecue suddenly stopped one day, and then we were starved to death. One was that we were killed by the scarecrow gang because of excessive weakness. The other was that we ate grass and trees to support hard, and finally Lost his life because of a mental breakdown."

"So now, before we have some strength to speak, our biggest goal is still to crack the rules."

After listening to Thor's detailed analysis, everyone's mood really fell to the bottom, but everyone knew that they could not blame Thor, because reality is reality, and as long as you live, you must face things. The momentary joy really doesn't make much sense, you will eventually return to reality.

"Then Captain, what should we do now?" Cereo thought about it for a moment, but still couldn't come up with a clear direction.

"I don't know, I'm thinking about it. Today we visited the building on the top of the mountain, which is equivalent to removing the last piece of fog on the island. At this point, the entire island is equivalent to us being transparent, and we have already explored it. Everywhere."

"I thought that all my secrets would be hidden in the last mist of today, but the facts were not satisfactory. In the end, we still got nothing. This is why I am not happy because the worst result is waiting ahead. Not far away."

"Leave aside content that has nothing to do with the rules, and sort out what we can call clues. We found a total of five monsters, four of which are on the Scarecrow side, a tombstone woman who is suspected of being the owner of the rules, and one with unknown meaning. Male skeletons."

"These are all the gains after exploring the island, and there is no doubt that the clues to go back are hidden in them. We now have to find out who is the real master of the rules in these clues, and whether it has revealed to us clearly or obscurely. What's your appeal."

"Now everyone can give full play to their imagination and find out the connections among these clues." Sol tried to encourage everyone.

Then everyone sat together and started thinking. Excluding the suspected rule owners one by one, they all think that the tombstone woman may be the rule owner. The problem is that the only interaction between the two parties is that she invites everyone to eat barbecue. She usually ignores people.

Seeing everyone racking their brains, Saul was a little silent. It wasn't that everyone was not smart enough, but that the information he had now was too limited. If this is a puzzle solving, but there is only a chaotic and unspecific mystery, and it is obviously difficult for everyone to get away with it.

Just like a man passing by an intersection suddenly stops, it is difficult for you to judge what he is going to do. What attracted him to the street when he was passing by? Or is he looking for something? Or is he just lost? Even he was just standing there waiting for someone?

If you only rely on endless guesses, you can guess countless possibilities from this tiny motion of a man stopping.

You know that as long as a man's behavior is not out of logic, it must be one of your guesses. But because you are not sure which one of the guesses it is, it is equivalent to not guessing anything. This is the situation everyone is facing right now.

"The tombstone of the woman in the tombstone... actually has words. I saw the first two sentences." After a silent interval, Elisa suddenly spoke, and raised her eyebrows at Sol, expressing her expression on her face. My expression seemed to be looking forward to Thor's praise.

"Yes, I also saw two sentences." Cereo continued, proving that he has been working hard for the team's goal.

"Word? What word?" Gerrabi looked just awake, as if he had just raised his head from a profound philosophical question.

"For the first sixteen years of my life, I have been studying, perceiving the world, knowing the world, and accepting the world. Then I grow up, to be married, and become someone else’s bride. When I was sixteen, I was lucky enough to get A husband who loves me."

"Then when I was eighteen years old, we had an angel. She was beautiful and gentle and kind, like the way I was when I was a kid,... In the nightmare, if you had only seven days left in your life, how would you live? "

"The above is all the words on the tombstone." Saul turned his head and smiled at Alessa.

Alessa pouted, this damned fellow, would you just boast that I would die? "

Cereo was a little surprised at Sol’s memory and observation ability. After all, the tombstone women didn’t stand still there all the time, and everyone kept in mind Sol’s point of not making rude behaviors, so no one dared to stare intently. Look at each other.

"Then what do these words mean? Is there something missing in this sentence in the nightmare? You must have not remembered it?" After hearing Sol's retelling, Aretha questioned Sol decisively. The delusion pulls each other down to one level.

"It's not that I didn't remember it, but I didn't. A crack on the tombstone just swallowed those words. I don't know if it was a coincidence or the tombstone woman deliberately tried to hide something." Sol pointed to Alessa. Raising her eyebrows makes Elisa so angry.

"Then what do the captain's words mean?" After chewing carefully, Sereo felt that these words didn't seem surprising.

"It should be the inscription introducing the life of the deceased. Although some words have been swallowed by the cracks, the word'nightmare' is actually enough. It is not difficult to guess what miserable accident this woman may have encountered before, and even the end of her life is here. Also a possibility."

Everyone felt that Saul’s analysis made some sense, but they couldn’t guess more about it based on the word "nightmare" alone.

"It's a pity, it would be nice to know what happened to this woman." Cereo murmured.

"Who said that I don't know, in fact, I already know, at least part of it." Saul suddenly smiled slightly.

you know? The three of the team turned their heads one after another, looking at Saul in shock.
