Chapter 42 About Lethe
Chapter 42 on Lethe

My conversation with Ji Ziyang was interrupted by Dazhe's howl, it turned out that the spherical rhizome that was thrown to him just now, he was useless, because he also had a wound on his stomach, and he couldn't bend down. At this time, Uncle Lu had already dealt with his legs, not to mention that this method was very useful, Uncle Lu's legs had a lot of dead skin, mixed with those dead larvae that had not yet taken shape, this thing may just pass through guò blood or muscle tissue to paralyze people, the toxicity is actually not great, Uncle Lu is strong and strong, and now he can move flexibly. He was holding a bulb to treat Dazhe's wounds, and Dazhe screamed in pain, and his voice echoed in the tomb, listening to strange people.
"Dazhe, can't you bear it, it's so intoxicating." I didn't have the heart to say it.
"It's going to say cool things, why don't you try it...... Yes...... Oops, oops...... Lao Lu, you tap, tap. Uncle Lu ignored him, and still buried his head in treating his wounds, but this Lechuan water was really effective, and the results were immediate, and those red and swollen places immediately showed signs of swelling, and the larvae that had hatched had become dead scabs and fell off. There weren't many wounds on Dazhe's legs, and it didn't take long for him to jump around.
"Yin Yin, it's not me who said it, you still have to find a man like me, you look at Jianzhuang, you look at this boy brother, he hasn't woken up until now." Dazhe didn't say that it was okay, but when I said this, I suddenly realized, indeed, why hasn't Yun Ximing woken up yet? Although he was injured early and seriously injured, there was no reason why he hadn't woken up for so long.
Uncle Lu and I hurried over to observe Yun Ximing, he was indeed very injured, his upper body almost retreated a whole layer of skin, and the scabs of many dead larvae fell beside him, Uncle Lu had already helped him check his lower body, and a lot of dead skin had also fallen off his legs, it stands to reason that he should have woken up a long time ago at such a recovery speed, but Yun Ximing still closed his eyes tightly, and his expression was painful and hideous.
Dazhe also came over, and after watching it for a long time, he suddenly burst out.
"Huh?! I said yin, are the ears of Brother Gongzi so big? "We only cared about checking our bodies, and when Dazhe said this, we realized that it was true, Yun Ximing's right ear was nearly a circle larger than usual.
"Oh no, Kui girl, will this thing bite Brother Gongzi's ear, and now it's in his brain?" Uncle Lu said.
Uncle Lu and I hurriedly put Yun Ximing down and straightened his head, and sure enough, there was a large area of redness and swelling at the root behind the back of his right ear. I hurriedly picked up the last bulb and punctured the Lethe water inside and applied it behind Yun Ximing's ear, Yun Ximing suddenly frowned, it worked, and I continued to apply more Lethe water. I saw that the red and swollen area was higher, and a white spot slowly emerged inside, and the white spot struggled for a few times before it moved, and a large necrotic cyst-like hard scab slowly formed behind the ear, and it took a while for the hard scab to fall off. Yun Ximing fought a cold war and finally opened his eyes.
"Are you awake? How does it feel? I asked.
Yun Ximing moved his arm, leaned against the wall and slowly stood up, looked at his wolf appearance, and grinned, "It's okay, it's just a little stinky, what is this?" ”
Xi Ming was right, we were all covered in Lethe water, not to mention the fishy smell, as if all four of us had just been fished up from the latrine.

"I said Yin Yin, don't say it, although this thing doesn't taste good, but it's really a panacea, the medicine will cure the disease, or I don't think we will dig any ancient tombs, just dig this thing and go back to plant it, this is holy water."
I looked at him and shook my head, "I don't know very well, I just know that this is Lethe River, Ziyang, what kind of place is Lethe River?" ”
Dazhe couldn't see Ziyang, they all stared at me, Ji Ziyang thought about it, and began to tell me the story of Lethe.
"The Lethe River is the most desperate place in the world."
"Isn't it supposed to be a beautiful place? There are flowers on the other side, and there is a bridge of helplessness? Flowers on both sides of the river, surging rivers? I asked.
"You humans are really naïve. The Lethe River is actually very narrow, the Nai He Bridge above only needs three steps to cross over, people become ghosts after death, and when the ghost can enter the reincarnation, you have to go on the Nai He Bridge, if you drink the Meng Po soup on the Nai He Bridge, you will always forget the things of your life, if you don't drink it, you have to jump into the Lethe River, wait in it for 1000 years, and then you can enter the reincarnation again, with your long-cherished wish that you don't have it. But in the past 1,000 years, you will see countless times your beloved walking on the Nai He Bridge, drinking Meng Po soup, and forgetting you, how many unwilling people have survived 1,000 years, and in the end what they are waiting for is just a negative appointment. Whether it's forgetting the love and hatred of this life or suffering for 1,000 years, isn't it extremely ruthless? Although Ji Ziyang didn't say anything emotional, I was still very sad when I heard it.
"Isn't there that two people are thrown into the Lethe River, suffer together, and then reincarnate together?"
"I've been saving zài for thousands of years, but no, not a couple. Girl, you remember, the dirtiest and most incomprehensible thing in this world is the human heart. ”
"Ziyang, if your body is found, you can enter reincarnation, will you choose to drink Meng Po soup?" I asked.
"Me? Absolutely, because I don't have anyone to wait for. Ji Ziyang said in a very small voice, and I suddenly realized that I had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject.
"Lethe water is so powerful, can it cure all diseases?"
"A cure-all?! Hmph, do you know what kind of water is in your necklace? ”
"It's said to be weak water."
"That's right, weak water is the entrance to the heavenly realm, the exit of the netherworld of Lethe, weak water and Lethe are actually a cycle, they are connected to each other, and what is sandwiched between them is the world where you are saved, a person is born, his life is carried by weak water, and when this person is dying, drink Meng Po soup, his past and present lives will be washed away by the water of Lethe, and he can only enter the next reincarnation when he recovers to a pure body. Therefore, weak water and Lethe are two extremes, weak water is the purest water, without a trace of filth, and the water of Lethe is the most filthy thing in the world, so weak water and Lethe water are the most feared things of all the evil demons and monsters in this world. I'm afraid that those things just now are not what this world should have, so these Lechuan water can detoxify, if you want to use this water to save people and cure diseases, I'm afraid that it will make people die faster. But this thing is afraid of the sun, and you can't bring it with you. ”
I told the three of them what Ji Ziyang and I said, and Dazhe was so frightened that he quickly threw the bulb in his hand and kept wiping his hands with the disinfectant tissues he brought in his backpack. Uncle Lu was counting the things we were currently around us, just now we fled in a hurry, many things were left on the other side of the cemetery, now we don't have a little food around, there are only two pots of water in the uncle's backpack, and then some guns and explosives in Dazhe's backpack, Yun Ximing's backpack and I are gone, only two small waist bags are left, I am carrying Dazhe's first aid kit, and then we only have a high-light flashlight, I don't know how long this power can last.
After counting the things, Uncle Lu frowned, "Girl, the situation is not optimistic, we can't stay here for a long time, we still have to see if there is any other way out." I nodded, and suddenly found that Yun Ximing was gone.
"Simin? Yun Ximing? I shouted his name, but did not answer, although this open space is slightly wider than the tomb road, but it is only three meters square to the left, there is no shelter, at this moment there are only me, uncle and Dazhe three people, Yun Ximing was still standing behind us just now, and disappeared silently out of thin air at this moment.
