CHAPTER XVIII
The little rabbit felt that he was about to die. He felt that something was not quite right in every part of his body. urination incontinence, the inner thighs of the two ** are always wet and slimy; His neck had become limp, as if it could no longer support his heavy head. Patches of spinning Venus often appeared in front of his eyes, and a monotonous, distracting humming sound often sounded in his ears. His gait was no longer as nimble as it used to be, and he had to stumble and exert a lot of energy with each step he struggled forward. Weak sweat seeped out of the pores of his body, on his head, neck, chest, waist, legs, and feet. He had a fever and wheezing heavily, and every time he walked a short distance, he had to hold on to his legs and gasp for a while, as if the air he had inhaled was always insufficient.
He decided that he was about to die, and he felt that the juice of his life was seeping silently, bit by bit, into the dark path beneath his feet with every step of his footsteps, with every shaking of his body. He felt that he was not walking on a solid path, but struggling on a huge, boundless spider web. His feet were heavy and heavy, as if they were always stuck in the slime of the cobweb, and he no longer seemed able to break free from it.
Waiting for him ahead is the poisonous spider of fate, which is quietly lurking in the darkness, waiting to eat him! As long as he falls, it will surely eat him!
He can't fall.
He seemed to have forgotten the wounds on his body, the hungry belly, all the painful ordeals he had experienced, and walked forward mechanically; As long as his legs can support his body, he will continue to walk until the last breath of his life.
However, in the dark, his staggering body hit the shed legs and coal gangs again and again, and he fell to the damp ground again and again; At this time, he would lie on his stomach for a while, catch his breath, get up and walk again.
He hoped for some miracle on this perilous journey of life: he longed to meet a person who was weaker than him and was on the verge of death, and even to meet the corpse of a person. He imagined countless times that if such a miracle had happened, he would have to pounce on it like a wolf, tearing its skin, picking its flesh, or simply biting its throat and sucking its blood...... Does he dare? Maybe...... Perhaps he dared, seeing nothing in the dark, and he treated him like a dead horse, a dead mule......
When he came out of the roofless alley, he lost the last two pieces of horse meat that he had tied to his waist with strips of cloth. He didn't know where he had left it, and he wanted to go back to the alley to find it, but after trying to take a few steps back, he stopped. He knew that it was almost impossible to recover his horse's meat, and that the water alley was long, and there was a short section of black water in the middle that had no roof. He may have lost his horse's flesh in that section of the black water. He remembered that at that moment, he saw his kiln god again, and the kiln god beckoned to him, and he stabbed down one by one...... When he barely poked his head out of the water, the horsemeat seemed to have been lost, but he didn't pay attention at that time, he was eagerly looking for the blue-faced man, his kiln god, he had been looking for it for a long time, and when he remembered the horsemeat tied to his body, the horsemeat was no longer there.
It was an unexpected thing.
He had escaped from the shelter in order to keep the horse's meat; But when he escaped, he lost his horse meat!
He wanted to cry, but he couldn't, he didn't seem to cry anymore. There were no tears in his eyes. He stood dumbfounded for a moment leaning against the Coal Gang, like a lost lamb, not knowing where to take his steps. Then, feeling chills all over his body, he sat down limply along the coal gang, leaning as far as he could against a moldy wooden shank leg, and leaning against the back of the shank leg, he walked into another world in a daze......
He saw his long-lost sun. His sun was round and big, like a rabbit on fire, and it burst out of a deep, bottomless valley, over the yard of his house, and on the roof of his house. There was a light in front of him, and he felt warm. He stretched out his two thin, soot-stained hands to the sun, and immediately felt the warmth of the sun in his palms. But the sun was restless, and it began to rise into the sky; He cried, he wouldn't let the sun go, he didn't want to be separated from his sun anymore, he threw himself on and hugged his sun.
He fell asleep with his sun in his arms.
When he opened his eyes, he realized that it was not his sun that he was holding, but his mother. His mother took him in her arms, and was stroking his hair with her hands, whispering something to him; There was also a man standing next to his mother, who was in a trance as his father. He struggled to sit up from his mother's arms, threw himself in front of his father, and told him about his mother's infidelity, about another man who possessed his mother, about a scene in that stormy night...... The father was angry, and grabbed his mother by the hair as if he had been drunk, and got into a scuffle with her. After a while, the shameless man came running and beat his father with his mother; He went up to help his father and hit the man, who flew up and kicked him out of the gate. When he went out of the gate, he flew in the air like a bird, and his arms became the wings of a bird. He flew, flew, flew to the place where the silk lantern was hung...... That place didn't seem to be a kiln, but he saw the little second sister in that place, and he had long wanted to play with her, so he had secretly deducted a few shifts of wages. But his mother found out, scolded him, and turned over the money he withheld, he didn't know how his mother found the place where he hid the money, and when he hid the money, his mother was not there!
He brought money with him this time, where did the money come from, he didn't know, anyway, he had money in his pocket.
He stood in front of the little second sister and timidly took her hand, but the little second sister was hesitant and did not refuse. So he went and ripped her clothes. For the first time, he saw everything that should be in a grown woman...... Like an old prostitute, he went up......
At this most pleasant moment, the cool wind of the alleyway woke him up, and his body was sticky and wet, and he realized that he had fallen asleep on his legs, and had a dream about the sun, about his mother, and about women.
That's when he started to incontinence, and it was like a broken bucket, ticking and dribbling, making both of his thighs wet.
Walk, rest; Rest, walk; He was alone, and he left a lot of darkness behind him, and he thought again and again: he was going to die, he was going to die, but he couldn't die. Every time he fell to the ground, he felt that he could never get up again; However, every time he got up, he felt that he could still walk.
When he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, he ate the rotten wood that supported the roadway and the gangue that he stepped on under his feet. He also drank water desperately, and whenever he found water in the ditch in the alleyway, he leaned down and drank enough. He thought that by drinking more water, he would be able to help digest the wood chips and stone powder that he ate in his stomach, and his life would last for two more days.
However, no miracle ever occurred. Along the way, he never touched a living person, never touched a person's corpse, except for the shed legs and gangue, it was a continuous wall of coal.
He was almost completely hopeless.
In the midst of this despair, he thought of the second animal and the third mule. He doesn't know if they're dead or alive? He wanted them to live, to catch up from the darkness behind. When he saw the kiln god in that water alley, he heard the sound of water behind him in a trance, and he thought obsessively: The people who wade in the water may be two animals and three mules; If it were them, how nice it would be! It would have been better if one of them had suddenly collapsed as a corpse while struggling to get to him......
No matter how hungry he was, the three mules remembered what the experienced old potters had told him: "You can't eat the gangue, that thing is going to eat the dead!" "He doesn't eat gangue, he eats the wood residue of rotten road wood and roadway wood, and he twists the wood residue into flour, and swallows it hard with the black water in the ditch.
He regretted it. Knowing that the horse meat he was carrying with him would be snatched by the hungry wolves, then he shouldn't have taken the initiative to greet them at all, or he should have let himself eat first. If, once fed, even without water, he can sustain six or seven days!
He and the second animal didn't expect that the hungry wolves would rob them of their horse meat, let alone that they would beat them so fiercely! Looking back now, he still felt afraid, and he figured out that those hungry wolves were originally uneasy and kind! They are going to count their lives! During the scuffle, one of them bit him on the shoulder, nearly biting off a piece of flesh from his shoulder. He and the two animals howled out of the cave and into the alley, wading under the water to the two barely roofless sheds. He hugged a shed beam, and the two animals hugged another shed beam next to him, and soaked in the cold black water for a long, long time. At that time, they were really afraid, in front of them was a roofless alley, and behind them was a group of wolves who had lost their minds and humanity, and they could neither retreat nor enter......
Later, when both arms were tired and sore, and both hands were numb, they remembered the little rabbit. They concluded that the little rabbit was not going to run back, and that he must have swam out of the alley! If the bunnies can swim out, they can swim out too! They tentatively waded forward, clinging to the coal gang and the shed beams, and waded to the top of the black water, and then they held their breath and dived underwater......
I actually swam out.
The section of the roadway without a roof is only three or four sheds in total, that is, thirteen or fourteen steps.
They swam forward for a while. Gradually, the water under his feet became shallow, retreating from his chest to his waist, and from his waist to his thighs and to his ankles.
Their feet were again on the road full of coal dust and gangue ballast, and they staggered on the road again.
After going on the road this time, the three mules seemed to have become a different person, and his feelings seemed to be soaked in the black water of the water alley, and he became cold, and along the way, he almost didn't want to say a word more, even if the second animal talked to him, he ignored it.
In the first period, they all hoped to catch up with the little rabbit and share the horse meat he brought out with the little rabbit. However, after walking for a long, long time, and not seeing the shadow of the little rabbit, they began to curse the hateful little wolf lamb viciously. They decided that the cunning bastard had escaped alone with the life-saving horsemeat, and that he had no need for them, and dumped them.
When eating rotten wood flour for the first time, the three mules scolded viciously:
"Day...... it! I...... I'm catching the little ...... Bunny this miscellaneous ...... Bastards, you have to eat his meat! ”
2. Livestock Road:
"This dog...... Dog cubs are also ...... It's too unconscionable! I...... I...... Also...... You have to skin him too! ”
It was the only conversation they had since they walked out of the alley, and after that, they never said anything to each other, as if they were two unrelated strangers, each struggling forward in the darkness in his own strength, panting and walking.
No one can help anyone, no one wants to help anyone, their feelings have been completely numb, and there is only the instinct to survive.
Fortunately, after walking out of the water alley, the alley became wider, and there was a carriage railroad under their feet, and there was no more blockage in the alley, and they did not have to work together to deal with anything.
The third mule's physical strength was obviously better than that of the second animal, and he was always in the front for some time afterward. He walked and rested, based on the principle of hearing the footsteps of the two animals; When the two animals had caught up, he walked forward again, and if he could not hear, he stopped and waited.
When he stopped, he felt a rotting wooden plank stuck in the coal wall, with a thumb-thick layer of bark on the surface. He pulled the plank off and sat down on the ground to peel the bark; Peel off a little bit and crush it into your mouth.
As he was eating the bark, he heard the sound of staggering, heavy footsteps behind him, and then the intermittent cries of the second animal:
"Mule ...... Mule! I...... My foot is broken! ”
He just subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, and then went to break the hard piece of bark on his own.
"Mule ...... Mule! Mule! The second animal shouted again.
There was no sound of footsteps, and the two animals probably stood still holding on to the coal gang.
He still ignored it. He twisted the broken bark with his fingers, but it could not be twisted; Bite with your teeth, bite off a little, and twist again.
"Mules! Come...... Give me a hand! ”
He felt impatient. He stood up, broke off a piece of bark and grasped it in his hand, and walked on until he could no longer hear the sound of the second animal, and then he sat down on the ground again by leaning on the coal gang, and seriously dealt with his bark.
Second, the cattle still caught up.
When he heard the second animal's gasping sound, he stood up and wanted to leave, but unexpectedly, the second animal had rushed to him desperately, grabbed him by the hair and beat him.
"** Raise ...... Raised! You...... You're so fucking ruthless! Old...... Lao Tzu saves the ...... Saved you! ”
Save me?! Who did Lao Tzu go to the kiln to save?!
He wanted to argue like this, but he didn't. He didn't want to waste his efforts. He knocked off the arms of the two animals on his head with a single punch, struggled to his feet, and stumbled forward.
He felt that the second animal was too stupid, when was the time now, how could he still fight? Even if he can beat two animals, he won't fight. This is not to pity him, but to preserve his strength, and he has to use this strength to complete the road he wants to take to survive, and he can't waste a little bit of strength.
After taking seven or eight steps forward, he heard the whimpering cries of the second animal. He relented. He stood down, and he waited for him to follow. He couldn't bear to leave him here alone. There was only so much more he could do to a friend, to a life-saver.
However, just as he stood down, he faintly heard a rapid gasp. At first, he thought that the wheezing sound was from the second animal behind him, but he felt that it was wrong. The wheezing sound was clearly coming from the dark alleyway ahead, from the chest cavity of another living person. He didn't think it was a rabbit for a while, he tried to stretch out his feet and hands, and quietly test forward little by little. When his feet touched a hot body, it moved, and he felt a pair of hot arms wrap around his legs.
He was brought down.
"Who? You...... Who are you? He shouted.
The hand around his leg loosened, and he heard a familiar voice:
"Me! Be...... It's me! ”
"Little bunny! You...... What is your dog day...... It's a rabbit?! ”
He rolled over and sat up, and couldn't wait to fumble on the little rabbit, he was looking for that life-saving horse meat! This horse meat cannot, and should not belong to, the little rabbit alone, but should belong to the three of them!
After touching it for a long time, he didn't touch anything!
He was furious, slapped the little rabbit to the coal gang, pounced on him and grabbed his hair, panting and roaring:
"Meat...... Meat...... What about meat? ”
The little rabbit said indifferently:
"Lost ...... Lost! Early...... It's lost! ”
"You...... You're lying! One...... It must be...... It's a ...... for you to give a dog's day Swallowed it alone! ”
"I didn't ...... No! ”
At this time, the second animal also heard the conversation between him and the little rabbit, and the second animal also shouted in the darkness behind him:
"Yes...... Is it a rabbit? Really? Fast! Fast! Rabbit...... Rabbit, give me a hand! ”
The little rabbit immediately screamed hoarsely:
"II...... Second brother, you ...... You're here to save me! Mule beating ...... Hit me! Second brother! Fast...... Come on! ”
The three mules were even more fired, and he completely lost his mind. He pressed onto the rabbit's thin body and wanted to pinch the rabbit's thin neck with both hands; The little rabbit shook his head and scratched his hands, and his two legs kicked desperately on the ground, kicking the soot on the ground to fly; Suddenly, one of his hands was bitten by a little rabbit, and he screamed in pain.
He screamed as he pressed the rabbit's neck with his other hand......
The second animal got up, tore him off the little rabbit, and beat him with the little rabbit.
Only then did the three mules feel a real threat, and he knew that he couldn't beat the two people in front of him alone! Both of them are surnamed Tian, and his surname is Hu, and at a critical time, they are bound to work together against him. If he had been defeated and killed by them, they would have eaten his flesh!
The three mules struggled a few times, rolled a few times, and finally got rid of the entanglement of the second animal and the little rabbit, got up again, and walked forward alone.
The footsteps of the three mules "kicking and dragging, kicking and dragging" gradually faded away.
Only then did the second animal get up from the ground full of coal dust, and sat down panting and sitting down with the hot body of the little rabbit in his arms. His hand, which was as rough as old bark, began to tremble and touch the little rabbit:
"Rabbit...... Rabbit...... Rabbit! You...... You can do it! You can do it! Fast! Tell ...... Tell...... Tell me, where is the horse meat hidden...... Where's it! We...... We are...... Shouldn't you give a mule...... Mule eats! This...... This kid is also ...... Also blackened hearts! ”
The little rabbit whimpered:
"II...... Second brother! I...... I don't lie to you! Horse...... Horse meat is really lost! Lost while crossing that water alley! ”
The second animal didn't believe it, and his big foul mouth let out a dry laugh like a broken stick:
"Rabbit...... Rabbit! You...... Don't fool me! I know! I...... I know you're shrewd! Be...... Is it hidden in the coal gang! Fast...... Fast...... Find out! Two...... The second brother wants to ...... I'm going to starve to death! ”
When the second animal said this, he had already left the little rabbit behind. He threw his whole body to the ground, his head held high, and his two large hands groped around in the ground. He touched the ditch from the heart of the Dao, and then touched the edge of the coal gang from the ditch.
"Second brother! Second brother! You...... Don't look for it! Not...... No! True...... There really isn't any! ”
The little rabbit crawled behind him.
The little rabbit hugged his feet.
The two animals kicked the little rabbit to the side, and touched it from the coal gang on the other side. The little rabbit's actions deepened his suspicions, and he concluded that the life-saving piece of horse meat was hidden somewhere in the darkness.
However, he touched it for a long time, and he felt the soot on his head and face, and he was covered in sweat, but he still didn't touch it. This time, it was his turn to get angry, and he grasped the little rabbit's shoulders firmly with his two leaning hands, and shook it desperately, like a piece of lifeless rotten wood. There was a terrible "purr, purr" sound in his throat. He shouted in a voice-changing voice:
"Where's the meat? What about meat? Meat...... Where is the meat? ”
The little rabbit was scared silly. He decided that the second animal was hungry and crazy, and he did not dare to say that the piece of meat did not exist anymore, and he was afraid that he would strangle him:
"Meat...... Meat...... Meat in ...... At...... Next to the gutter in front, in the ...... Underneath a large piece of gangue, I ...... I...... I ......"
The hands of the two animals were released:
"Quick, get it! Fast...... Just go! ”
As soon as the second animal let go of his hand, the little rabbit quickly crawled forward, and after a few steps, stood up and stumbled away. After running a long way, a long way, he turned around and shouted:
"II...... Second brother, what a ...... There's really no meat left, you, you...... Let's go! I...... I'm gone, too! ”
The second animal shouted angrily and in despair:
"I ...... I skinned you dog...... Bastard! ”
Then the two animals began to cry like wolves, and said as they wept:
"Bunny...... Rabbit, whoa, etc...... Wait...... Wait...... Wait for me, help ...... Help me ...... A handful! Other...... Don't put ...... Leave me alone...... Throw it in the back! Whoop ......"
The little rabbit pretended not to hear, and he held on to the legs of the shed in front of the coal gang and carefully touched forward. Like a cunning fox, he pricked up his ears alertly, listening for the voices in front of him and the voices behind him. He made up his mind that he could neither go too fast nor too slowly; The three mules that were walking in front could not be caught, nor the second animal that followed behind.
He will eat them, and he will not be eaten by them!
He hoped that the three mules that were walking in front would fall first. His ears had been nervously catching up on the footsteps of the three mules coming from the distant darkness ahead, and his ears had become surprisingly good. The long darkness had degraded one's eyesight, and he could hardly see anything before his eyes except for the occasional flash of swirling Venus; His ears have evolved as a result, and his ears can now hear a small sound a few dozen feet away. His ears followed the footsteps of the three mules, catching the struggling gasps that mingled with the heavy footsteps. Again and again, he deduced the distance they were from each other and the last time the three mules might fall based on the sounds he tracked, captured.
A tenacious, indomitable thought arose in his heart, which grew stronger and stronger with every step of his footsteps, with every gasp of his breath, until it became a fire, a lamp, and a sun of life!
"You can't eat me! I'm going to eat you! ”
He thought about it over and over again. He felt that his body was so good! He felt that he could still fight with all his strength and engage in a harsh fight and fight with the two people who were going to eat people in front of him and behind him! He concluded that the two animals and the three mules would eat him. The ferocity with which the three mules strangled him, and the madness with which the two animals choked him by the shoulders, made him feel terrified when he thought that if they had pounced on him and knocked him down at that time, his life would have been ruined! The flesh and skin of his body will no longer be intact to his bones now!
They lost a chance to eat him!
Now, it's his turn to look for an opportunity to eat them!
While keeping an eye on the three mules, he did not forget the two animals walking behind him. He kept his steps as light as possible, so that the three mules in front and the second animals behind him could not figure out his movements. He suddenly remembered the many disadvantages of the second animal. Along the way, how many times did the second animal beat him, he actually knocked him unconscious twice, and he didn't have a good heart for a long time! He had long wanted to kill him, one less drag; He couldn't beat the second animal at that time, but he may not be able to beat it now! He could beat him, and maybe eat him! There's nothing unreasonable about this, he's a bunny who is taking revenge for justice! The second animal treats him like this, why does he still recognize this second brother of his own family? As for the three mules, that's even less to say. Their Hu family doesn't have a good thing, so they are angry at the feud between the Tian and Hu families for decades, and it is reasonable for him to kill him and eat his meat!
Naturally, he preferred a fight between the second animal and the third mule. If they can do it, he won't have to put much effort into it! Whoever kills whom, it will be good for him!
He paid attention to the footsteps of the second animal. The footsteps of the second animal were much heavier than the footsteps of the third mule, and he concluded that the second animal was much more likely to fall first than the third mule. Once, when he was holding on to a crooked shed leg to gasp, he heard a "plop" behind him, and his heart was ecstatic, thinking that the second animal was finally dead, and he wanted to touch it to take a look. But before he could turn around, the second animal got up again panting, and cried out pitifully:
"Mule ...... Mule! Rabbit...... Rabbit, etc...... Wait...... Wait for me! ”
From the shouts of the second animal, he judged that the second animal could barely support it for a while, and it would not completely fall for a while. He turned around in disappointment and walked forward abruptly.
There is still eternal darkness ahead.
The three mules were the first to touch the wide, large, tall, and thick damper. At first, he didn't realize what the damper meant to him, he didn't even realize that he was touching the damper, he thought it was the door of a machine room. He carried it on his shoulder, trying to open the door and go inside to rest. However, after carrying it several times, he didn't do it, and a powerful, resilient force inside the door crushed the door to death. At this time, he suddenly thought: this is the damper of the main air channel, and he suddenly remembered the inclined shaft and the road to the ground. His body trembled violently, the heat around him rose to his head, and tears welled up in his dry, sunken eye sockets. He clung to the iron handle on the damper so that he didn't let himself fall. He wanted to shout to the second animal and the little rabbit behind him, but his lips moved for a long time, and his mouth didn't make a sound.
He tried to carry it again.
The damper opened a small slit, and the gun-hard wind peeked through the crack and nearly pushed him to the ground. His body shook and left the damper, which closed with a "click".
He turned around, leaned against the damper, and shouted:
"Come, come, I...... We went down the slope! This...... Here it is...... It's the damper! ”
Yes, this is the damper.
This is the door of life.
This is the door of hope.
His shouting gave the little rabbit and the second animal a great stimulus, and the dark alleyway resounded with a burst of rolling and stumbling sounds, and the little rabbit and the second animal echoed with a crying voice:
"Come on...... Here it comes! I...... Here we go! ”
"Mule ...... Mule! Come...... Give me a hand! ”
The three mules became generous at once, and he no longer cared for his physical strength, he left the damper, and groped back along the side of the alley, and when he touched the second animal, he put one of his arms up.
The three of them met under the door of life.
They pressed their shoulders, their hips, and their backs against the damper, all in unison.
The damper opened the small half, and they were not allowed to use their feet against it, and it closed tightly with a "snap".
The little rabbit was knocked to the ground by the damper that was knocked back.
The little rabbit lay on the ground and laughed.
The second animal and the third mule also laughed.
The gloomy alleyway is full of the joy of life and the laughter of life!
The shoulders, backs, and buttocks of the three men were pressed against the damper.
The two animals drank the trumpet, and the three mules and the little rabbit echoed:
"Come on, guys!"
"Hey!"
"Let's do it!"
"Hey!"
"Here comes the damper!"
"Hey!"
"It's fucking coming back!"
"Hey!"
"Carry it!"
"Hey!"
"Just go up to the kiln!"
"Hey!"
In the sound of this trumpet, the damper was opened little by little, and the little rabbit leaning on the wind gate was the first to jump out of the damper, and then the two animals leaning in the middle also left the damper. When the second animal left the damper, he took a defensive hand, he knew that the power of the damper was very great, and if he didn't do it well, he would beat the three mules to the outside, and he grabbed the edge of the damper:
"Quick! Mule! Come here! ”
The damper was blown by the wind, like a wild horse, desperately struggling back, but the two animals did not catch it, and the suddenly closed damper still squeezed one of the arms of the three mules.
The three mules screamed and hung on the closed damper and fainted......
When the three mules woke up, they were lying peacefully on the second animal. His arm, which had been caught in the damper, was broken, and the area below the elbow hung limply. Ignoring the pain in his arm, he struggled to get up, and said to the second animal:
"II...... Second brother, go! We...... Let's go! ”
They opened the second damper, and climbed up the ramp; After climbing about half a mile, another pile of falling gangue blocked their way.
They had to fight the falling gangue again!
They have climbed from the hell of death to the edge of hope, they have achieved success after success, they will soon be the masters of their lives, they cannot lose their courage in the face of this last pile of obstacles!
They frantically pounced on the blockage in front of them, and with the last remaining strength they scrambled to pick it up.
However, after all, they have gone through too many tribulations, after all, they are all dying, and the gangue and coal in front of them are too heavy, too heavy!
The little rabbit was the first to realize this, and the joy of carrying the damper was replaced by deep despair. He thought bitterly: maybe this is their last graveyard, maybe none of them will be able to get out of this graveyard......
Once again, he thought of cannibalism and being eaten!
He was no longer so hard-working, he tried to be as lazy as he could, and only rattled the gangue under him, but he never used the last bit of strength like the second animal and the third mule.
The second animal and the third mule soon found out, and they pounced on him and beat him; So he rolled down the alley, and hid himself in the darkness and pricked up his ears to hear their cursing and their work. He knew very well that their lives were connected, and that if they opened the way, he opened the way; If they can go out, he will go out; He could not expend precious strength on this, but his strength should be used at the critical time, on the road out of the inclined shaft at the end.
He still felt that he might be eaten.
He thinks that they are looking for an excuse to eat him by saying that he is not working hard! Find a reason!
They're so bad, they have to find a reason to eat people!
The tenacious, indomitable thought came to his mind again:
"You can't eat me! I'm going to eat you! I'm going to eat you! ”
Unexpectedly, just as he thought of all this, the surprise shouts of the two animals came from the darkness in front of him:
"That's it! Scratch...... Got through! ”
