126 gambles
After torturing myself thoroughly, I curled up in a corner and fell asleep unconsciously.
It was still pitch black, but when I woke up this time, I realized that someone had woken me up.
I decided that Xiao Liu was not around, and there could be no one around.
But I still hurriedly turned on the flashlight, and Xiao Liu's person appeared in front of me again.
I showed a face full of surprise, and joy rushed into my brain at once, and I hugged Xiao Liu tightly.
But when I calmed down, I pushed him away again, because this must be my hallucination or schizophrenic person, although it is very real, but the hallucination is an illusion, because I can no longer accept the disappearance of Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu didn't look at me right, and it was estimated that the contrast between my successive performances was a little too exaggerated, so he didn't ask me what was going on.
It wasn't until my indifference was a little unbearable for him that he began to ask me why.
But I didn't answer, just stared at the apparition and engaged in a duel with the abnormal lines in my head.
This time, I will never believe this person I fantasized about out of thin air!
But I still overestimated myself, I wasn't that strong, and I thought that I might as well have a conversation with someone instead of being trapped in a hole.
Slowly, my heart opened up again, and whether it was a hallucination or not, I told him my opinion and the real events of the previous day.
But it was precisely because of the weakness of my heart that I ended up playing a very big role in this matter.
After Xiao Liu listened to my story, he began to think that I was joking, but after seeing my serious expression, he gradually stopped thinking so.
Then he asked me a question: "Since you have tortured yourself, why are there no scars on your body?" ”
I touched my body and said with a smile: "It's just an illusion, because you are also an illusion, so you can't see the wounds on my body." ”
Xiao Liu said again: "So what if I tell you that your so-called truth is dreaming? Have you ever thought so? ”
I was speechless when I asked this question, and indeed, he had some truth in it.
Then he continued: "Have you noticed the amount of food? ”
I shook my head to indicate no.
Then Xiao Liu sighed and said something that shocked me very much: "Actually, I also experienced a dream like yours yesterday, you disappeared from the hole, but I didn't abuse myself, I just told myself that it was a dream, because I know what is the real feeling, and I must experience it with my heart!" Brother, don't be gently misled and go down the wrong path. ”
Although Xiao Liu's words were a little unacceptable to me, his eyes were clear when he spoke.
Then he continued, "Why don't we do an experiment?" Anyway, the food will run out sooner or later, so let's eat it up today, and wait until tomorrow if it's gone, and you see if there's any food at hand, and if there is, eat it up again. In this case, if the food in any scene is still there, it means that it is not real! Anyway, we can't get out, so let's see which one is real when we die. ”
This idea is a bit absolute, and it is very extreme, but at that time, I was in a state where I couldn't distinguish between black and white, and I had nothing to worry about, so I even agreed.
With that, we swept away all the food we had in front of us.
When the next day came, I sat up and turned on the flashlight mechanically, and Xiao Liu beside me was no longer there.
The touch is real, and it's hard for me to believe if it's a dream.
However, I remembered the agreement with Xiao Liu, and quickly reached into my pocket.
It was the only food, but I didn't need to save anymore, I ate it straight to my mouth, and then changed to a calm attitude to get through this lonely day.
I tried to start thinking back to the things that had made me happy in the past, and I laughed silly like a fool thinking about it.
The day was finally over, and when I opened my eyes again, the sound of another person breathing was coming into my eardrums.
Xiao Liu reappeared, but when we fumbled through our pockets, we found that there was no food left.
Did the experiment succeed? Are we all in the real world?
Then for the next two days, although my stomach was grumbling with hunger, I never experienced the days when Xiao Liu disappeared again.
It's really as he said, the scene in front of him is the real world.
That night, however, I was suddenly woken up by a sound that I could not describe, similar to the sound of a deflated tire.
Xiao Liu was also woken up by me, and we both held our pistols, thinking that some kind of creature had returned.
But in fact, when we figured out the source of the sound, we were surprised to find that water was gushing out of a corner.
And the water is flowing more and more, accompanied by the sound of stones colliding.
I shone my flashlight through it, and found that the water was coming from a hole in the corner that had suddenly appeared, probably formed by the impact of the water just now.
This kind of thing is really a miracle, but just like the force that pulled me down the hole, we still can't explain what it is, but not everything in the world can be explained by reason.
I touched it with my hand and found that the hole was so wide that it could accommodate an adult like me.
I had a bold idea, if this hole led to the outside, could we use it to get out of here?
Or maybe it's the mysterious power in this cave that is revealing to us.
But when I think about it calmly, the idea has come to naught.
Without diving equipment, God knows where this hole leads?
Do you want to gamble your life?
If we win, we'll go down the tunnel like a slide to the outside.
If we lose, we'll get stuck in a tunnel or a dead tunnel, and end up drowning in it with no oxygen.
I sat down and thought about it, the food was gone, and I would have to die rather than stay here.
These two paths began to tangle in my mind.
Xiao Liu probably saw my entanglement, so he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Anzi, it's all death anyway, why don't you fight?" ”
Just because of this casual remark, it gave me great confidence!
I stood up violently, gritted my teeth, and replied, "Damn, fight!" ”
Once we had reached an agreement, we both quickly checked our gear and walked to the hole.
Maybe it's really the road to the end, or maybe it can also be called fate!
Just as we were about to die, the water in the cave suddenly became much smaller, to be exact, I don't know when there was no water flow.
Seeing this, Xiao Liu said that it was a good time, and jumped into the hole.
I was afraid that the water would flow again, and the danger would increase, so I jumped in without hesitation.
The slope of the tunnel in the cave is good, and the two of us are like sliding down like a slide, at high speed.
At this time, the beam of the flashlight began to become extremely brilliant in front of my eyes.
I knew it wasn't me dazzled, it wasn't a flashlight problem, it was a scene created by the crystal minerals on the cave wall that are particularly sensitive to light, and the flashlight was illuminated.
