Chapter 264: The Cave
The forest went up more and more, and after walking for a while, I realized that we seemed to be climbing a certain mountain, but we were still at the bottom of the mountain, so the slope was still gentle, and it was very dark around, so I didn't notice it just now. (.79xs-
In this way, until the time when the sky was 'cloudy' and 'cloudy', all of us were already very tired, and we only dragged our tired 'legs' and waited for Chen Wei to give the order to rest.
But Chen Wei didn't seem to have this intention at all, and kept walking in front and pondering something.
He seems to have had a lot on his mind lately.
Xiaoyou and I supported each other, feeling that the two of us could fall at the same time at any time.
And at this moment, a team member who ran to pee on the team ran back in a panic with his pants and said to Chen Wei: "Team member, there are a few tents over there." ”
Hearing this, Chen Wei stopped, looked in the direction where the man was running and asked, "How many?" ”
"About four or five."
"See anyone?"
"I didn't see it, it was probably raining, it was all in the tent."
Chen Wei furrowed his brows: "It's impossible not to leave someone to guard." After speaking, he turned his head to the rest of the people and said, "Stop and rest, and be careful not to make a movement." He looked at the boy again, "You take me there."
Hearing this, Xiaoyou and I couldn't care about the mud on the ground, so we sat down, and Chen Wei left quickly with the person.
Looking at the direction where Chen Wei left with some distraction, I reminded Sun Miao and the fat man: "Do you want to go over and have a look?" "
Sun Miaozheng didn't know what he was looking for, so he looked at me and said, "No need, since the commander went by himself, it proves that he is sure that he is fine." ”
The fat man also rubbed his waist and said: "Yes, girl, don't worry about it, at this point, it is impossible to have no guards, maybe those tents are empty." ”
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Chen Wei to come back from there and sit next to me, and Sun Miao and the fat man immediately came over to ask what was going on.
Chen Wei said: "It's empty, no one is there." ”
This seemed to be expected by the fat man and Sun Miao: "What's in the tent?" ”
When I asked this, I saw that the expression on Chen Wei's face changed slightly: "A 'female' corpse." ”
"The corpse of the 'female' ??!" The fat man 'revealed' a surprised look: "What about those of them who go out of the 'door' with a drag oil bottle?" ”
This sentence immediately drew the glares of me and Xiaoyou, and he didn't care, and he didn't even look at the two of us.
Chen Wei shook his head as if puzzled: "The 'female' person's face was cut off. ”
"!!" The moment I reacted to Chen Wei's words, I immediately 'gasped': "Wait, wait, you mean there is a 'woman'?" Her face was cut off in its entirety? ”
"Yes." Chen Wei nodded and looked at me, probably knowing my glass heart, and added: "There is not much blood, it should be cut off after death." ”
Indeed, I feel much better when he says that.
Otherwise, it is so painful to think of a person being cut alive while he was alive.
Sun Miao looked at Chen Wei: "Do you know who it is?" ”
Chen Wei said: "It's Zhongwei's group of people. ”
Sun Miao nodded when he heard this: "It's not strange to meet them here, it's almost time to get to the place." ”
But Chen Wei still didn't have that kind of clear look, and thought for a while and said: "They came here more than a month earlier than us, and the tent was also full of fallen leaves, it seems that it has been placed here for a long time, and there is no trace of a fire in a short period of time around, obviously no one has lived in it for a long time, but the 'female' corpse is quite fresh." ”
can make Chen Wei bothered, and we naturally can't figure it out for a while.
Sun Miao speculated and asked, "Is it possible that they used this as a camp, but they have already gone into the mountains?" ”
Chen Wei said: "It's impossible, Zhongwei is not so stupid, this place is far from the entrance, and it is basically useless for them to stay here." As a result, Chen Wei paused suddenly before he finished speaking, as if he remembered something, his face changed, and he immediately got up and ran in the direction just now.
I glanced at Sun Miao, and immediately got up and followed.
Xiaoyou originally wanted to follow, but was stopped by the fat man.
The rest of the team members are not Chen Wei's subordinates, and we are not the same, we are only temporarily cooperating, if something happens to a few of us will run together, it will inevitably cause those people's suspicion and dissatisfaction, and may even 'make' some misunderstanding because of this, they think we got something but are not willing to share a piece of the pie with their master.
Sun Miao and I followed Chen Wei to the tent he said, and the chain of one of the tents was unfastened, and we could vaguely see a person lying on the ground inside.
took a deep breath, followed Chen Wei and ran into the tent, although they were already mentally prepared, they still couldn't help but cry out when they saw the 'female' face at the first glance, if it weren't for Sun Miao dragging me to a big fart squat, I would have to fall to the ground.
Chen Wei squatted next to the head of the 'female' corpse, pressed his fingers on the top of her head, and after looking back and forth twice with a dagger, his brows tightened instantly.
Sun Miao squatted beside him and asked, "What did you find?" ”
Chen Wei's face is very unsightly; "It's Sun Yang." ”
"What?!" Hearing the name that came out of Chen Wei's mouth, Sun Miao was also startled, and looked at the unrecognizable corpse on the ground: "She is Sun Yang?!" ”
"Yes," Chen Wei nodded.
Sun Miao's face also darkened: "Zhongwei's group must have gotten some news from Sun Yang's mouth." ”
Chen Wei was silent for a while and then shook his head: "It shouldn't be, if they got the news, they should let Sun Yang join them, but now Sun Yang is dying here." ”
"And what do you think is going on?"
Chen Wei took back the dagger and got up and said: "She has been dead for no more than two days, it should be someone who came here later, and this person later is the most important!" He must have learned something from Sun Yang's mouth, so he cut off her face, so that the people behind him would not recognize it and know that they had already gotten some news from Sun Yang's mouth. ”
I was 'confused' by Chen Wei and Sun Miao's dumb riddle-like chat, but I couldn't interrupt them to ask, so I could only slowly smooth it out by myself.
But I couldn't help but ask, "So what?" What do we do now? ”
Hearing this, Chen Wei and Sun Miao looked at me at the same time.
After the two of them were silent for a while, Chen Wei said to Sun Miao: "You take the others to enter through the entrance, and He Mo and I will enter from there." ”
Sun Miao 'revealed' a worried look when he heard this: "In this case, it will be more auspicious for you to go by yourself, not to mention He Mo." ”
Chen Wei shook his head, his face was very tight: "If they get the things, it's too late, He Mo and I will leave now." ”
Hearing this, Sun Miao looked at me, although the expression on his face was still worried, he could only obey Chen Wei's order, took down the equipment bag on his body, handed it to Chen Wei, and said, "Be careful." ”
Chen Wei took the equipment bag and patted Sun Miao on the shoulder: "The rest are 'handed over' to you." ”
Sun Miao grinned: "Obey!" After speaking, he looked at Chen Wei for a while and then continued: "Come out alive, I don't want to lose your brother." ”
Chen Wei also smiled: "You too, come back alive." ”
Then, Chen Wei led me out of the tent and walked deeper into the forest.
Sun Miao stood still and watched us for a long time before leaving reads;
After walking a long way, I opened my mouth and asked Chen Wei, "Can I ask questions?" ”
Chen Wei seemed to be used to it: "Ask." ”
"Why do we have to go separately from Sun Miao?"
"Because we're going the other way."
"Another way?"
"Well, a path that no one but you can know."
I nodded, understanding Chen Wei's intentions: "The 'female' person just now, do you know her?" ”
"Yes." Chen Wei said: "That road, she is the only person who knows except me and Suotian."
"How would she know?"
"It's a hassle to explain this, I'll tell you later."
After a long pause, I asked the next question: "This time, it's going to be dangerous, right?" ”
"Yes." Chen Wei responded quickly and directly: "You may die." He looked at me, "Are you afraid?" ”
I smiled and shrugged my shoulders: "What are you afraid of, you are a person who is dying, come here to try to see if you can pick up a life, if you can't pick it up, you won't lose, don't be afraid." ”
Chen Wei didn't speak again.
Originally, according to my guess, I would have to walk for at least a day or two to get to the place he said, but at noon, after we had lunch next to a waterfall on a mountain cliff, and after a little rest, Chen Wei took me to the river below the waterfall, tied my waist with a rope, and raised his chin towards the river: "The entrance is below there, you hold your breath and follow me for a while." ”
I learned to swim half-baked because I was 'forced' to swim too much, and I have never tried to dive under the water.
So as soon as Chen Wei said it, my whole face was already green.
After staring at the river for a long time, he asked Chen Wei uncertainly: "Is there any other option that compares not having to go into the water?" ”
Chen Wei tied the rope and made sure it was firm before looking at me, and said slowly and firmly: "No, you have to reads;." ”
"Can I not go?"
"I can't."
"What if I drown?"
"Not going to drown, I'll get you up before you're full."
I made mental preparations on the shore for almost ten minutes, and was finally dragged by Chen Wei and jumped into the river.
Fortunately, the clothes washed by the water last night have not dried, and I don't feel that the river is icy, and I followed Chen Wei to swim towards the place close to the waterfall, and when we got close to the bottom of the waterfall, the surrounding water mist had made me unable to open my eyes, and there was a deafening sound of water 'flowers' falling down.
After 'groping' around for a while, Chen Wei dragged the rope around my waist to him, and raised his voice with a deafening rumble: "Hold your breath!! We went down! ”
This moment has still come, although I am afraid of the feeling of insecurity under the water, I will know that there is no turning back, I still held my breath and followed Chen Wei to the bottom of the water.
People who have never dived, sometimes it is not easy to really want to go down, if it weren't for Chen Wei who has been dragging me, it is estimated that I would subconsciously shoot the water to make myself float.
The waterfall is very deep underneath, at first I didn't dare to open my eyes, not much, I felt that the water around me was not so 'intense' I tried to open my eyes, the surroundings were very drowsy, almost nothing could be seen, I could only barely see the shadow of something, at this time I didn't have the 'essence' to distinguish what it was.
Chen Wei dragged me all the way down, and gradually I felt that the breath I was holding was no longer enough.
kept tugging on the rope to remind Chen Wei.
He dragged me all the way without looking back.
Finally, when that breath was completely exhaled, I felt that I couldn't breathe at all, and I couldn't help myself.
It turns out that the drowning life experienced such an uncomfortable feeling.
Just when I was worried about whether my eyeballs would burst out due to excessive breath-holding, a 'hole' suddenly appeared in front of me, and Chen Wei took me to swim towards the 'hole', and when I entered the 'hole', Chen Wei took me all the way up and quickly swam towards the water.
The moment we 'peeked' out of the water, I didn't even have time to wipe the droplets off my face and began to gasp violently.
The lungs felt burning because of the long breath holding.
It's uncomfortable, no.
Chen Wei swam to my side to smooth me out and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
As soon as I tried to speak, I kept coughing: "Is it okay?!" Almost drowned! ”
Seeing that I was uncomfortable, Chen Wei didn't answer, looking back and forth at the surrounding environment.
When I eased up a little, I also followed Chen Wei and began to observe the surrounding environment, it was very dark here, only Chen Wei's flashlight faintly illuminated the surroundings, and I could see it slightly, Chen Wei didn't need this thing to see, so the light was also shining on me.
This seems to be a mountain 'cave', just like the mountain 'cave' when Chen Hao rescued me last time, but this place is obviously much bigger than that place.
This mountain 'cave' is very 'cloudy' and cold, and I didn't feel uncomfortable just now, and I only felt that the 'chicken' skin bumps on my body were frozen.
Chen Wei pointed to the side and said, "Go up and bake your clothes first, don't catch a cold." ”
On the other side that Chen Wei pointed to, there was a platform, although I couldn't see clearly, but when I climbed up, I still 'touched' this stone slab very smooth, as if it had been polished.
The two of us sat on the cold stone slab, and Chen Wei opened the backpack, which has a waterproof layer in it, so don't worry about the contents inside.
I started a fire with fuel, and Chen Wei helped me take off my coat and put it aside to roast.
Putting my hand on the fire, I asked Chen Wei, "Is that thing here?" ”
Chen Wei nodded: "En." ”
"What is this place?"
"A modified tomb 'cave' reads;."
"What?!" I exclaimed, "You mean this is the 'crypt' of the sleeping dead?!" ”
"Yes." After answering my words, Chen Wei looked at me interestingly and said, "What? What did you do to be afraid of being entangled by thousand-year-old zombies? ”
People who are sick hate such an unfortunate place, and they are too lazy to quarrel with Chen Wei, and I have a strong sense of rejection here.
It is impossible for the clothes to be dried here by this fire, but when the body is warmer, I put on my clothes to put out the fire and prepare to set off again with Chen Wei.
When I stood up, I realized that there was a long, straight stone path along the river in the 'hole' we had just come up on.
One side is next to the wall in the 'cave', and the other side is against the river.
Chen Wei and I walked along that road.
After walking for about five or six minutes, the first fork in the road appeared in front of me, and Chen Wei walked towards the right with me without thinking about it.
On the right, the whole space becomes a long and narrow corridor, the first half of the wall is very rough, and the back is slightly smoothed.
Further inside, there are even some paintings on the walls.
It's just that those paintings are just a bunch of 'colors' left, and it is long ago impossible to tell what was once on them.
This corridor is surprisingly long, we walked for almost half an hour, I don't know how many turns in the middle, how many forks in the road, if it wasn't for Chen Wei all the way, just with me, it is estimated that I would not be able to get out halfway.
Finally, just when I thought that this corridor would never end, a large stone 'door' appeared in front of me.
The 'door' is really quite large, and there is no decoration on it, just a relatively flat grind.
There were two stone monsters crouching on either side of the 'door', and I looked at them twice and looked away without knowing what they were.
