I remember the place where Lao Wang's body was hidden, and at that time I made a plan in my heart, no matter what, as long as I can go back alive, I will definitely bring Lao Wang home, so the hiding place is imprinted in my mind.

I took a folding shovel and walked against the rubble as fast as I could, and soon arrived at the place where the body was hidden. I looked around, and carefully looked to see if the place where the corpses were hidden, but every day there was wind in the Danmeng Basin, and the wind swept the sand and flooded it, and all traces were obscured.

I took a shovel and started digging, I remember that the body was not buried deeply, but after digging for a long time, I couldn't dig out the body that was hidden here.

Although the body was not dug up, the question I wanted to confirm now has an answer. Since the last time Lao Wang and the others returned to the team, I have wondered, in what form did they come back from the dead? Is the dead body resurrected? Or have you left your old skin behind and been reborn?

There is no doubt that the body of Lao Wang, which I buried here, is gone, that is, Lao Wang must have been "resurrected" from the corpse.

I put away my shovel and walked slowly back. It can be said that this kind of thing is completely subverting everyone's cognition, and if I hadn't experienced it myself, I would definitely not believe it.

Naturally, the "thank you note" deciphered from the characters at the bottom of the reservoir came to mind. It is unknown who wrote the thank-you letter, but the words of the place of resurrection from the dead kept shaking in front of my eyes.

The land of the dead and the resurrection, the place of the dead and the resurrection...... If you understand it literally, it is very simple, that is, people can come back to life after death, but if you think about it deeply, you will feel that this sentence still contains the meaning of the endless road of heaven and man?

No matter how I think about it, this sentence should be a good sign, and as I walk, I seem to have a little more hope in my heart that things may not be as bad as I thought.

When I went back, the three of them were sitting around drinking water, part of the experience of the last Danmeng trip, the three of them all forgot about it, Ning Xiaomei and Lao Wang chatted enthusiastically, only Zhang Momo looked at the road in the distance silently.

It's still early in the morning, and I can still rush forward for a while, I greeted them, if there is no special situation, the team should not disperse, otherwise there will be an accident, and the companions will not have time to rescue. After resting for a while, we set off, and I remember that there was a place to camp in front of us.

When I slept in the open, it was still me and Lao Wang who kept vigil, and this time I had a long memory, even if Lao Wang went to pee, I would follow to avoid danger.

The more we guarded it like this, the more stable the situation seemed to be, and the rest of the journey was not the slightest bit unusual, and we came directly to the ruins with the cistern.

"Last time, did we go the other way?" The old dynasty looked at it: "Why don't I remember passing by this place?" ”

"You're funny, you must have passed by here last time." Ning kitten patted Lao Wang: "Forgot? There's a dry pool over there. ”

They were discussing, and I thought, since I'm here, I should go to the cistern again, and I want to take pictures of all the undiscovered characters at the bottom of the cistern, and when I have time, I can study them and maybe get some clues from them.

But I remember it clearly, the last time I came to the cistern, Ning Kitten was attracted by the two-meter-diameter "well" at the bottom of the cistern. So I didn't want to have any trouble, so I quietly pulled Zhang Momo aside and whispered to her, "I'm going to go to the reservoir and take a look, you stay, stabilize Lao Wang and the kitten." ”

"You're not afraid of danger?"

"I'm afraid." I nodded: "I'm scared, but I still have to go." ”

I walked alone through the ruins until I reached the edge of the cistern. From the last time I left Danmeng to now, the time is not too short, the bottom of the reservoir is covered by the sand brought by the wind, I slowly slide down the slope of the sand, intending to slowly clean the sand so that the stone slab below is exposed for easy photos.

But as I slipped to the bottom, my vision suddenly froze. The "well", which was about two meters in diameter, was still slowly rolling in a pool of black ink, and I saw a person floating on the water.

It must be a person, but he is wearing black clothes, mixed with the black water, and he will not be able to distinguish if he is far away.

When I saw this person, my nerves immediately tensed, because in my impression, except for the team that came to Danmeng five years ago, no one should have set foot here, but now I found a person on the surface of the black water, which must have aroused my alarm and vigilance.

I pulled out the knife from my waist and pressed my body very low, staring at the people on the surface of the water while sensing the wind and grass around me with all my might. It was very quiet around the cistern, and the man on the water didn't know if he was dead or alive.

I took a few more gentle steps forward, and as soon as I got closer, I was immediately amazed.

Floating on the surface of the black water turned out to be Hu Ritu.

"Hu Ritu?" I shouted softly, but Hu Ritu didn't respond, I glanced around again, took out the walkie-talkie, told Zhang Momo that there was a situation, and then came to the well, put on gloves, tried to grab Hu Ritu's collar, and dragged him up little by little.

Hu Ritu's eyes were all open, and his mouth was slightly open, and at first glance, it would make people think that he must have lost his breath, but after pulling him up, I tried it with my hands, and he was still breathing, and there was a heartbeat.

I don't know what happened to him, I wanted to take him from the bottom of the reservoir to the top first, and then Zhang Momo and the three of them ran over, and when they saw Hu Ritu, they were all stunned.

"Why is Lao Hu here?" Lao Wang had eaten Hu Ritu's roasted whole sheep at that time, and he still remembered this affection, so he hurried down to help me, and we worked together to get Hu Ritu up.

None of us are doctors, so we can't see what's going on with Hu Ritu, so he keeps his eyes open and his mouth slightly open. I frowned, Hu Ritu knew that the Danmeng Basin could not be entered, so it was impossible for him to knowingly commit it, unless there were extremely special circumstances, or he was forced to come in.

But Hu Ritu didn't wake up, so there was no way to ask him this. I thought of a lot of ways, but I didn't dare to use drugs casually, and I was at a loss. In the end, Lao Wang took off the shoes on Hu Ritu's feet, pricked his feet with a disposable injection needle in the medical bag, and pricked him a few times, but it worked, Hu Ritu, who had not moved, seemed to have been electrocuted, and his hands and feet trembled lightly a few times.

"It works!" Lao Wang was in good spirits, and continued to prick with a needle.

I looked at Hu Ritu and obviously reacted, the eyeballs that had always been fixed in my sockets seemed to be rolling, and my mouth was squirming slightly.

"Don't prick it!" I hurriedly stopped Lao Wang.

Hu Ritu is like a person who has been frozen by the cold, he began to slowly thaw and recover, and after a while, I helped him to sit up, his eyes were very sluggish, and when his eyeballs were rolling, it was like in slow motion in a movie. I talk to him and he doesn't respond.

Now the weather is a little cold, Hu Ritu has been soaking in such cold black water for a long time, there is no trace of heat on his body, I got him some hot water, Hu Ritu himself does not drink, but when he feeds him, he still knows to swallow it in his stomach.

After taking care of him for more than half an hour, Hu Ritu's condition seemed to be better, he could sit up, and he could walk slowly with support, but his mind seemed to have some problems, his eyes were always dull, he couldn't understand what we were telling him, and he didn't speak.

"Lao Hu, you are a good person, you can't be stupid." Lao Wang looked at Hu Ritu who had not recovered for so long, and he was a little anxious.

My heart sank, Hu Ritu was like this, and he definitely couldn't tell how he entered the Danmeng Basin. Several of us stared at each other, and neither of us knew what to do.

When we found Hu Ritu, it was impossible to leave him alone, but we couldn't take him to the front, he was in this state, he couldn't take it at all, thinking about it, I could only discuss with Lao Wang, let him take Hu Ritu back the same way, and wait for us in the hidden vehicle outside the basin. There is still water and food left in the car, and it is no problem to support them to survive for half a month.

"I'm gone, who's going to protect you?" Lao Wang was like a special soldier, frowning, and looked at Zhang Momo: "I'm not at ease." ”

"Okay, don't mother-in-law and mother-in-law now, go back quickly." I urged Lao Wang to hurry up and get on the road, thinking that if he really went back, our trip might go smoothly.

Lao Wang was indeed a little reluctant, but he still took the overall situation into account, and after a long time, he took Hu Ritu along the way and walked towards the outside of the basin. When Wang was far away, I ran back to the bottom of the cistern, tried my best to clean up the sand, pulled out all the slate characters that I couldn't find last time, and took pictures in turn.

The characters are messy and need a quiet environment, tidy them up slowly, and then decipher.

As soon as Lao Wang left, there were three of us left, and I remembered the lesson from last time, so I never let my guard down. The road from here to the surface fault zone was simple, and although we had slowed down, we still got to the vicinity of the fault zone. I was relieved that the three of them were still safe, but the last time we got here, and then we went forward, we didn't know anything.

That night, we were looking for a place to camp, and I didn't dare to stay away from the tent, so I shrank at the mouth of the tent, this kind of wild trek is actually very physically demanding, and I can't help but take a nap in the middle of the night.

But I only slept in a daze for more than ten minutes at most, and suddenly I was awakened by a rustling sound. I gently rolled over and got up, listening intently, although the rustling sound was very soft, but it was very rhythmic, and I listened for a while, and the roots of my ears and my scalp went numb.

I felt like something was slowly crawling against the sand.
