The Song of Gendaya

"Linde, hello, Linde, hurry up and wake up." A familiar voice echoed in the boy's ears.

He slowly opened his eyes from the nightmare, and the surrounding environment was dim, making him unable to tell where it was.

Is it the camp where the Knights rest? I'm afraid not? Because he couldn't feel the thick goose feather mattress under his body, nor the warmth of a woolen blanket.

All he can feel is the straw with the smell of decay and sweat.

"Look, he's awake!" The excited scream of a middle age person first pierced Linde's ear.

"Keep your voice down, luck! Don't let the guards hear it, or the dogs and chickens who have to be cleaned up in our cell are restless tonight." Another voice said disgustingly.

Other people around Linde are also commenting on everyone talking at once. It seemed that there were people in the darkness in the distance, so many people crowded here, making Linde feel a little dazed.

Linde blinked, and he tried to adjust to the darkness in front of him so that he could distinguish the faces surrounding him. It took him a long time to realize that it was really difficult to do it in a cell with limited light.

Linde no longer paid attention to these people's comments. He opened his mouth and made a slightly hoarse voice: "Oh...Where is this?...Why did I come here..."

p>

"Look! He's talking! Bless the gods!" The dark figure before yelled again.

"I said you lighten up! Your god will also be scared off by your pig-like voice. I really doubt you are colluding with the guard!" A shrill voice sarcastically road.

"It's not..." the hanky voice said dissatisfiedly.

A meaningless quarrel, Linde thought, he breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced back and forth at the strange guys in front of him. The brain is still groggy, and there is some pain in the back of the head.

Finally, a voice answered his question, that voice was so familiar.

"This is an ordinary cell under a private mine of the Olastan family. We are all prisoners serving here and have no freedom. We fled for a long time on this Kavard wasteland, but Still not free from the fate of becoming a prisoner, are you right? Linde."

Who is he? How do you know my name? Linde carefully observed the thin figure in the dark, and the figure was also looking at him meaningfully, but the pair of gold and silver demon pupils exposed the identity of the master.

"You are..." Linde was so excited that he could not wait to jump up right away when the friend who had been thinking about it day and night was in front of him.

"It's me, bless the gods. I really didn't expect to meet you here. I don't know if it is luck or misfortune." There is a slight ridicule in Saru's words.

"I've been looking for you all the time! Because..."

Linde suddenly felt a headache before he finished speaking. An indescribable feeling rises in the mind, it seems to be a kind of memory recovery, and many broken images suddenly appear in his mind.

He seems to see the endless spiral staircase under the abandoned tower, the far end of the staircase leads to the unknown darkness; under the lantern, two conspirators are whispering, they are planning the next greater disaster; Only the inexplicable sap, he never saw the appearance of the person.

Saru seemed to feel something. He asked the others to make a gap and leaned forward to Linde.

"What's wrong with you, Linde, you haven't finished what you just said, because of what? Linde... are you okay?" The man with gold and silver demon pupils did not blink his eyes, he was concerned Asked.

"Saru, I feel bad." Linde said somewhat absent-minded.

"Oh, what's the reason?" Salu asked, and the others were listening attentively.

I saw Linde suddenly sit up at this moment. He buried his head between the propped legs and said nothing.

Salu saw some clues, he suddenly stood up and said: "Everyone is gone! It's okay here! All have a good rest, and I have to go to work tomorrow!"

And those people actually left obediently.

At this time, in front of the straw mattress, only Linde and Salu were left, and most of the others disappeared into the darkness beyond the moonlight.

Two familiar friends began to whisper silently.

"Linde, tell me, what's wrong with you? What have you experienced during this time?"

"I don’t know where to start. The more questions I experience The more, it's like a mess that can't be separated, no matter what I think or do, I can't straighten it out. I want to know how I got here. How long has it been..." Linde asked silently.

Saru's eyes of different colors kept blinking, and he seemed to be able to see through his heart through Linde's eyes.

"One day one night, I was forcibly dragged in by two guards." Saru said seriously.

"I have slept for so long, one day, one night...I don’t know what Mr. Gladys would think, Mr. Rafis must be waiting for me to go back to rest, and promised to help Miss Maliu I haven't finished the work...Hey, I'm such a terrible person." Linde said with a bitter smile.

"What happened at the time? Linde."

"I was knocked out."

"By whom? Why?"

"I overheard some secrets that shouldn't be heard."

"What secret?"

Linde lowered his head, he was silent, and did not speak for a while.

"What's the secret? Tell me!" Salu continued to ask.

"Too terrifying, I can't say." Linde suddenly lifts the head, he deliberately changed the subject, "Saru, tell me about you! How did you get here."

"I fainted on the wasteland by myself. I woke up here. I didn't know the process." Saru showed a helpless smile, "It's actually pretty good here. At least there is water. There is an Old Guy who can help us heal... Linde, haven’t you said your secret yet?"

"I’m going out! This secret can only be told to Glatis... to another friend of mine. ......" Linde stuttered, "Saru, tell me, I can get out here, is there a way to get out, right?"

Saru lowered his head, he didn't answer Linde's question. And Linde seemed to feel countless pairs of eyes staring at him in the darkness of the room.

An old voice came from the darkness in a corner:

"Child, tell you, since the discovery of this vein, no one who came here has ever been able to go out. And the old man I have been here for sixteen years." The old voice was paused, he seemed to be thinking back to the past, "I know fewer and fewer companions, but more and more brothers died, a man in a cell. Batch after batch."

When the old man said this, Linde heard people sighing and sighing constantly in the dark, and his emotions were all affected by the old man's words.

"Uncle, why?" Linde raised his head and asked.

"Why? You will understand everything when you walk out of this cell tomorrow. Child, give up those impossible realization ideas! When you come here, you can only do things with peace of mind, at least you have a bite of food to eat."

Some people in the dark jumped out to agree with the old man's words.

"Outside there is war and famine. There is no security here. No matter what, at least you can save your life."

"Who said that you will be able to save your life. A lot of people were crushed to death by the collapse, so why don't I think about them."

"That's better than dying under a sword!"

"..."

Someone is already arguing, and it seems to be too noisy.

"Uncle, if you stay here for a long time, there is no other way. I have special urgent information that must be brought out, otherwise the matter may be big." Linde ignored the noisy The voice, but looking straight at the direction of the old man.

"Child, I must tell you that since you have stepped into this isolated place, the disputes outside have nothing to do with you. You only need to work hard every day. Until the end of your life, maybe 10 years, 20 years, or even my age." The old man said.

"No! I have to go out. The mining of No. 9 mining area is actually a big conspiracy. There is a terrifying power sleeping under the veins! I have to warn them to stop work and not go down. Dig!" Linde yelled anxiously.

The whole room suddenly fell into deathly silence, and all the noise came to an abrupt end.

Linde noticed that the atmosphere was a little uncomfortable. He suddenly asked, "I'm sorry, did it disturb you?"

"The Ninth Mine..." A man with a shrill voice Suddenly, his voice trembled.

"Yes, it's the ninth district!" Linde didn't understand what the other party meant. "Yes! I have to go out and tell the people of the Olastan family!"

Saru sighed, his voice sounded a little tired: "It's useless, Linde, we can't get out, if what you said is true...I want to tell you, this is the ninth mining area..."
