Chapter 225: Four Children
"What?" I asked in a whisper.
Teacher Han sighed again and said, "He said that time is running out, and he can only do his best, hoping that the other four people can hold out until he brings that young man back."
Then he also glanced at the two children with eye problems, although he didn't explain the words, but his eyes were enough to explain everything, those two children, the possibility of surviving is very small.
Then he carried me into the mountains, and on the way he told me that he must have known the beginning of the road, and that during the day, he had also found the traces left on the way when we fled back, so nothing could go wrong.
I'm weak, and if I'm tired, I can just go to sleep, and when I need directions, he will wake me up.
I was really tired, so I lay on his back and fell asleep in a daze, before I fell asleep, I still wanted to tell him, in fact, I didn't know the road very well, we were chased by the young man to flee for our lives, I can't remember exactly what route we took, and it's night, I don't necessarily recognize it.
But before I could say these words, I fell asleep.
By the time I was woken up by the wind in the mountains, Han Cripple had already found the young man, to be exact, the body of the young man.
The young man was dead, very miserable, and although when I saw his body, Han Cripple had already tidied up a little to try to make him look less unacceptable, but I still felt quite terrifying.
Han Cripple told me that that young man was the root of this disaster, so I can't avoid this corpse, so no matter how difficult it is to accept, I have to examine this corpse with him, otherwise the curse on my body will not be unraveled.
I vividly remember the young man huddled under an old locust tree, still holding on to the lanyard of the telescope, but the telescope had shattered, and the sharp splinters pierced his eyes, and the eyeballs had been pierced out of shape.
At the temples on both sides, there is a blood hole, Han Cripple said, it should have been pierced directly from the temple by something sharp, and that was also the last blow that ended his life, but what exactly was stabbed, I don't know, the murder weapon was not found at the scene.
Han Cripple directly wiped the young man's blood on my eyebrows, and took out a dagger, held my hand, and asked me to stab the young man in the chest, stabbing it very deeply, and the whole dagger was gone.
Then, Han Cripple told me that I was fine, and I would be better in a few days.
Then it was the way back, and Han Cripple said that he had to bring the body back, otherwise the four children would all die, and he needed to carry the body on his back, so I had to walk on my own.
And the way back was cursed, and if your feet don't touch the ground, you are ghosts, and you must go out barefoot, otherwise we will definitely encounter ghosts hitting the wall and dying in it.
Although I picked up a life, but after all, my body was very weak, and I was young at the time, and I was afraid to walk on the mountain road in the middle of the night, my legs were soft and the ground was the same, and the ground was full of stones and branches, and my feet were quickly punctured.
In this way, the two of us were left alone, and it was not until dawn that we rushed back to the village.
When I got home, I passed out and slept for two or three days before I recovered, and it took another two weeks before I could get off the ground and walk.
Later, I heard them tell me one after another, what happened after we came back, the two children who saw things died, and before Han Cripple and I came back, they were already dead, and the eyeballs fell out of their sockets alive, and the blood vessels in the whole body burst, and the death was even more miserable than that young man.
Those two children, like me, who didn't see anything, were lucky enough to pick up a life, but they were not in a good condition.
Before we rushed back, the two of them had problems with their legs, as if the blood could not flow back, and the two of them were all swollen and bruised in all four legs
The blood vessels are bursting.
Although after we brought back the young man's body, Han Cripple also held their hands and made them both stab the young man separately, and also wiped the man's blood on their eyebrows, controlling their condition from deteriorating, but both legs were already useless, and the damage caused by the burst blood vessels could not be recovered by the hospitals in the city.
In the end, it was okay, I was the only one, and because I was fine, our family and the other four families all quarreled, and they all got along well, but then they didn't talk when they met, they said that my grandfather and Han Cripple were selfish from the beginning, and they only planned to save me.
He also said that the five of us collided with the things in the mountain at that time, and Han Cripple took me into the mountain, so he didn't need me to lead the way at all, and during the day, he must have already figured everything out.
The reason why I deliberately made such a show at night was to take me into the mountains alone, to ask for forgiveness for me in the mountains, and to put all the blame and calamity on the other four children.
In fact, I also doubted it myself, and I don't know if I could survive well, whether it was because I followed Han Cripple into the mountain at that time and was treated as soon as possible, so I didn't cause permanent damage, or because I was my grandfather's grandson and Han Cripple's cousin, so they made up their minds to save me alone from the beginning.
For so many years, I have always regretted that maybe if we hadn't gone to the young man, had not told him the legends of the village, had not followed him on an expedition to the mountains, and had not looked at the sky in the telescope, then maybe nothing would have happened. ”
I said, "The legend you told that young man is the same as the legend I am going to ask, because that legend has killed a lot of people, and you have a shadow in your heart about that legend, so you don't want to tell me about it." ”
Teacher Han nodded and said, "That's right, since then, I don't even want to think about that absurd and groundless legend that has no credibility, and I don't want to take that mountain road again." ”
Teacher Han seemed to be still saying something, but I couldn't hear it anymore, I was already stunned by what I saw in front of me, and what Teacher Han said later, my ears may have heard it, but it didn't enter my mind at all.
Mr. Han finally noticed that my eyes were wrong, and found that I was staring directly behind him, and asked me, "What's wrong?" Is there anything behind me? ”
I said, "Did you stab that young man in the right chest, and besides, the dagger was not drawn?" ”
