CHAPTER XLIV

Shi had a long dream, dreaming that he was shuttling in the thick fog, and there was no one around, only heard many sounds, including the sound of his father and grandmother talking, the sound of his partners laughing together, and the voice of Zhang Tao crying and calling his sister, but he walked for a long time, and he couldn't get out of the fog in front of him.

He was a little frightened and shouted a few times, but no one responded. Many voices flickered far and near, but how could they not find their direction. He was hungry and tired, and he felt unwell, and at one moment it seemed as if he was roasting in a fire, and at another he felt like he was walking alone in the snow and ice. He walked for a long time, and he didn't know when he was talking, and the sound around him suddenly disappeared, and it was terrifyingly quiet. A slender figure suddenly ran past him, and he shouted in surprise: "Thin monkey, stand still!" ”

The thin monkey really stood still, turned around, and beckoned: "Hey, loach, hurry up, hurry up, it's too late, it's gone." ”

He was stunned, and was about to scold the thin monkey, why did his eyes grow on the top of his head? I didn't even recognize him. Suddenly, another person ran by, holding the shoulders of the thin monkey, and the two of them smiled and talked.

He suddenly understood, it turned out that the thin monkey kid hadn't seen him at all. He was unhappy in his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "Hey, skinny monkey, loach, where are you two going?" Wait for me. ”

But when he chased after him, where were the thin monkeys and stones? There was nothing around in the white. He turned around a few times, shouted a few more times, and echoed more than a few times, but no one answered.

He was afraid of Yue Sheng, tightened his clothes, shouted while walking, walked and walked, and suddenly arrived in a cage, he saw many children fighting together, there were Qian Kun, there were thin monkeys, there were loaches, there were also Ye brothers, and there were many children he knew or didn't know, everyone was tearing, the more they fought, the more fierce they became, the thin monkey and the loach pressed Qian Kun to the ground, and the two brothers of the Ye family came over to beat the thin monkey and the loach, and some people around them fell to the ground. He was getting colder and colder, and he couldn't help shouting, "Stop fighting!" Don't fight! ”

But no one listened to him, Qian Kun picked up the dagger, came behind the thin monkey, and stabbed it suddenly. The thin monkey convulsed for a while, fell to the ground on his back, blood gushing out of his waist, and in a moment it flowed to the ground. The loach shouted and hugged Qian Kun's waist to grab the dagger. The dagger in Qian Kun's hand was raised again, and he stabbed down again and again.

The Ye brothers glanced at each other, and rushed over at the same time, Ye Shen hugged Qian Kun from behind, Ye Huan went to grab the dagger, but he couldn't take it down, so he bit Qian Kun's arm. Qian Kun screamed in pain and let go of his hand. Ye Huan grabbed the dagger and stabbed it into Qian Kun's chest. Qian Kun also fell.

Ye Shen smiled and touched his younger brother Ye Huan's head, but before his hand could be withdrawn, the smile stopped on his lips. His brother stabbed him in the chest.

Ye Shen's eyes widened, which made his originally hideous face even more hideous, and he patted his hand on Ye Huan's shoulder and said, "You...... You're so ruthless...... I...... It's your brother......"

Ye Huan was so frightened that he trembled, watching his brother shrink and fall to the ground, he suddenly knelt on the ground, holding his face in his hands, and cried.

Someone next to him came over, took out the dagger on Ye Shen's chest, wiped Ye Huan's head with one hand, and gently cut it with the other. Ye Huan's crying stopped abruptly.

He looked around in horror, there was blood everywhere, all dead, everyone dead. He was so frightened that his teeth were fighting, and suddenly he saw many children with daggers rushing towards him, and he said as he retreated, "It's not me! I didn't kill it! I really didn't kill it! ”

Those people didn't listen to him at all, so he had to pull his legs and run. Running and running, he suddenly saw Zhang Xing running not far in front of him with Zhang Tao in charge.

His grandmother's words came to his mind, follow her, follow her, and you can live.

He ran towards Zhang Xing, shouting as he ran: "Xing'er, Xing'er, wait for me, wait for me!" ”

However, Zhang Xing didn't look back, leading Zhang Tao to run farther and farther, and gradually disappeared into the thick fog.

He was alone again, and there was nothing but the white mist, and the boundless panic and despair came flooding him, and when it was about to overwhelm him, he suddenly woke up from his dream. Touching the jet-black rock wall, he heard the sound of water dripping, dripping, slow and clear.

Turning his head, he was lying on a large rock, covered with hay, and not far from here lay a burden, beside which were two porcelain bowls. Next to the porcelain bowl is a three-house wooden shelf, and under the shelf is a pile of burned ashes. A little farther away is an irregular opening, bright and dazzling on the outside.

It's a cave. What about apricots? Why isn't Apricot here?

The stone remembered the dream just now, and the despair and panic in the dream that penetrated deep into the bone marrow overflowed, and he was eager to sit up, but he pulled his neck, hands and feet with a sharp pain, and he couldn't help but scream in pain.

He hurriedly looked at the pain, only to find that his neck couldn't move, a circle of cloth was tied to it, and it was cold, and there was something green and faint on his arm, and he only smelled the fragrance of grass and trees. And his left leg was even more elevated, clamped by several flat long wooden sticks, and he couldn't move at all.

These few times have obviously been dealt with, and Zhang Xing should still be there. The stone didn't dare to move anymore and persuaded himself to calm down. So he just moved his eyes and looked closely at the entrance of the cave.

I don't know how long it took to go down, but when Shi felt that he was about to lose it anymore, he finally heard footsteps outside. A thin figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, dressed in gray and black clothes, with his trouser legs rolled up, barefoot, holding a wooden stick in one hand and two fish three or four inches long in the other, his face was not very clear, although his face was backlit. But the stone knew that Zhang Xing was back. My heart was full of swelling for a while, and all kinds of flavors were there, but the previous despair and panic disappeared without a trace.

Seeing that Shishi's eyes were open, Zhang Xing was overjoyed, and hurriedly put down the things in his hand, and went over to ask, "Shi, are you awake?" ”

Shi looked at Zhang Xing, Danfeng's eyes bent, and he nodded with a smile.

Zhang Xing was overjoyed, and said to herself: "It seems that it is used correctly." ”

"What's the right thing?" Stone asked, opening his mouth before he realized that his voice was hoarse.

Zhang Xing sat next to him, grabbed his hand that was about to scratch his throat, and said, "Don't move, you've been burning for a few days, and you just retreated yesterday, and your throat is naturally uncomfortable, don't worry, it'll be fine in a few days." ”

Shi put down his hand and looked at Zhang Xing. Zhang Xing also looked at the stone, and her heart was full of joy. That night, she dragged the stones to move the place, found a small mound, and made do with it for half the night, and after dawn, she searched for a long time before she found the cave. She already knew a lot of herbs, and she went through the incident of Zhang Shuisheng's serious injury. As the saying goes, a long illness becomes a good doctor, and she is now a half-ass.

In front of her in the barren mountains and forests, in the face of unconscious stones, she had to harden. Fortunately, the vegetation in this mountain forest is vigorous and varied, and she has found several common traumatic herbs. After a few days of groping, the badly injured stone was pulled back from the line of death.

Zhang Xing was happy in her heart for a while, and suddenly called out "oops", patted her head, stood up, and said, "Look at me, I just care about being happy, but I forgot about business." Stone, you wait a while, I caught two fish, and I will cook fish soup for you to drink. ”
