Chapter 312: Ding Sitian's Diary
What really happened in this underground fortification twenty years ago, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan may never know.
He Xie can probably guess some clues, but he knows very little.
But there is still one person in this world who must know the whole truth.
That's - Ding Sitian!
He Xie stood alone at the entrance of the long and dark tunnel, and stopped at the door of the first room at the entrance of the tunnel.
It was pitch black in the tunnel, but He Xie's gaze could penetrate the darkness and clearly see every detail on the door of this room!
This door is an ordinary wooden door, but compared to the other doors in the aisle, this door is obviously much wider, and the door opening is much higher.
Although the corrosion of time has made the wooden door mottled and decayed, there are still some traces that have not disappeared with the passage of time.
For example, artificially engraved words -
"I hate you, but I never wanted to kill you, I'm sorry."
This line of writing is more like picking out with a fingernail!
Although the font is a little weirdly distorted, it can still be seen that its delicate temperament is obvious, this is a woman's stay.
This is a woman, twenty years ago, standing in the position where He Xie is standing now, I don't know what kind of mood she had, and she picked out this line of words with her fingernails!
He Xie found this line of words when he sent Hu Bayi and them out to pass here, so when he came to the stairwell, he didn't find Ding Sitian's body, and he wasn't too surprised.
Although he had never seen Ding Sitian's handwriting, he was almost certain that this line of writing must have been left by Ding Sitian!
Twenty years ago, maybe Ding Sitian didn't die at all!
He gently stroked the beautiful words, but his mind was quickly speculating on all kinds of possibilities.
The reason why he cared so much about this dungeon, and even the truth from twenty years ago, was because he knew very well that it was these things that he was about to face.
If Ding Sitian really didn't die, why did Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan insist that she was dead?
And why did Ding Sitian leave such a sentence here?
Who does she hate? Her comrades?
The tragedy twenty years ago was not caused by Ding Sitian at all?
Ding Sitian, what is the origin?
This sentence alone is enough to prove that the story told by Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan is not true at all!
In their story, Ding Sitian is a kind and simple girl, with a lively and cheerful personality, and a love for everything.
But if that's the case, where do you start with the words "I hate you"?
The truth of twenty years ago seems to be getting more and more confusing.
He Xie looked at the time, it was now 2:50 in the morning, and there were only ten minutes left before the flowers bloomed on the other side.
He took a deep breath and slowly pushed open the wooden door to the room.
The scene behind the door made He Xie slightly stunned.
It's not a room at all, behind the door, but a wide passageway!
At the end of the passage, there is a huge cat's head sculpture, exactly like the two sculptures in the grasshopper-infested underground space!
Although he was slightly surprised, He Xie was not too surprised.
The sculptures that were clearly visited by the Japanese army and still remain in the underground fortifications in that underground space can also prove this.
So in this underground fortification, there must be a passage that can lead directly to that underground space.
The wooden door, disguised as a room, was significantly wider and taller than the doors of the other rooms, apparently for the convenience of the Japanese army transporting the sculptures.
Ding Sitian, who survived back then, walked into the underground palace alone along this passage?
He Xie walked along the passage vigilantly, and the brick holes on both sides were nothing but some scratches and bumps.
It wasn't until He Xie walked in front of the cat's head sculpture that he found that under the sculpture, there was a neat set of clothes, a pair of cloth shoes that were obviously a woman's size, and an army-green cloth bag.
He Xie picked up the clothes, shook them open and looked at them, and sure enough, this was also a woman's military uniform.
There are not only military uniforms, but even women's underwear and inner libraries.
There was nothing in the pocket of his clothes, and He Xie opened the bag and took out two notebooks from it.
A book is redskinned, He Xie opened it and looked at it, it was the red treasure book at that time, the pages had not been bitten by insects, the book cover was very worn, but the pages inside looked very new, obviously, the owner of the book must have taken great care of this book.
There is no other information left on it except for quotations.
After He Xie looked through it carefully, he immediately picked up another notebook.
It's a diary.
Turning the first page, He Xie immediately narrowed his eyes.
The handwriting on this, and the handwriting on the wooden door before, is definitely from the hand of one person, this is Ding Sitian's notebook!
On that night twenty years ago, a tragedy suddenly happened, and all the people who entered the underground palace died, only Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan escaped.
Maybe they didn't escape, but were sent out by Ding Sitian.
Then the girl returned alone to the horrible and dark underground fortifications, and carved the line in the doorway of the first room in the tunnel.
That may be her last goodbye to this world.
Then the girl walked here step by step, she took off all the clothes on her body, put down everything, and walked into the dungeon.
Why did she do it?
He Xie flipped through the notebook page by page, and although he read it quickly, he didn't leave a word behind.
In this book, it is the diary written by Ding Sitian after he cut the queue.
Ding Sitian in the diary is not the same person at all as the girl described by Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan!
The more He Xie looked back, the more shocked his mood became, and when he finished reading the last page, his heart was filled with a thick shock.
Closing the diary, He Xie let out a long breath, his expression a little abrupt and a little disappointed.
Suddenly, he found a lot of answers from this diary about the events of the past twenty years.
For example, a girl who often talks about "connecting life and death, the junction of yin and yang" would never be loved and cared for by her comrades in that era, because she was surrounded by thorough materialists.
On the contrary, Ding Sitian has always been the target of everyone's criticism and abuse.
When a girl from the city comes to the grassland with harsh conditions, she not only has to bear heavy labor, but also has to endure everyone's contempt and insults, and she will be taken out to criticize and criticize in public at every turn.
How can such Ding Sitian be cheerful and lively?
So Ding Sitian hates her comrades, and even the whole world.
She didn't do anything wrong, but her father and mother were criticized, and she couldn't escape her fate, a young girl in the flower season, but to suffer such a tragic fate, how resentful and painful would her heart be?
And the only thing that makes her life a little more colorful is the two big boys who have always loved her and sympathized with her - Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan.
Both of them like her and want to take her out of the sea of suffering, although she prefers the handsome and dashing Hu Bayi, but in the face of Wang Kaixuan, who is infatuated with her, she can't bear to refuse.
These were the only two people who could warm her, and she didn't want to lose any of them.
But there are things that have to be chosen, and in the end, she still chose Hu Bayi.
Hu Bayi didn't disappoint her, this boy was very good to her, and even after learning that she had been chasing the legend of the flower on the other side, he didn't say it on the surface, but behind the scenes, he secretly investigated with Wang Kaixuan.
Both of them had some magical skills that she didn't know, and they eventually learned that the legendary flower was probably in the tomb of a thousand-year-old goddess on the banks of the Ergun River through some information revealed by a rancher named Old Sheepskin, plus their own inference.
So, Wang Kaixuan, who loved her like a brother, and her lover Hu Bayi, gave her a big surprise.
They hid from her, quietly designed everything, used some tricks, and quietly guided all the educated youths to decide to go to the thousand-year-old tomb of the goddess together.
When Ding Sitian learned all this from Hu Ba, she was so happy that she was going crazy!
