Chapter 8: The Singing of the Mountain
I patted the face of the camel, "10,000 camels, 10,000 camels."
Useless.
Do you want to splash it with water?
"Pinch others, use some force"
I didn't use much force to pinch, and the camel woke up.
He glanced around in confusion and suddenly screamed and startled me.
"Ouch, my toes, ouch, it hurts, ouch...... Ouch ......", rolling while screaming......
I laughed right out of the crowd when I saw him.
"Which turtle son, who cut off my toes with a thousand knives, ouch,,, ouch,,, he doesn't die everywhere, he wants to harm me...... Ouch ......"
"Didn't cut, didn't cut", I shouted to Wan Huo, it was useless, I raised my voice and shouted to him, "No cut". The echo shook the gravel on the mountain and fell down, and the camels stopped.
"Why does it hurt so much if you didn't cut it?"
"See for yourself, I didn't cut it"
Wan Camel stopped, took off his shoes to look at his feet, and everyone hid far away from the shoes, and finally someone's feet stinked worse than mine.
"Come here, don't cut off your toes, give me some blood," said the second senior brother.
"You lied to me", Wan Camel didn't believe it.
I sincerely said to Wan Huo, "I really don't cut it, you believe me"
Wan Huo's personality is a bit like a child, and when I saw him, my nose was sour and I wanted to cry.
Wan Camel looked at me and was still asking, "Really don't cut it?" ”
I looked at him and nodded.
Wan Huo walked up to the second senior brother and stretched out his hand, and said with a grin, "As long as you don't cut it, why don't you want blood, can you just let it go?" ”
Seeing him like this really makes people cry and laugh, and I don't know what expression to use.
The second senior brother put half a bowl of Wan Camel's blood, and then used ointment to stop the bleeding.
Then he turned to me and said, "Go find a dried corpse and cut off the little finger of your left hand."
This...... I was a little hesitant, and the second senior brother was a little angry when he saw my hesitation, "Do you want me to go in person for this little thing?" ”
"I'll go".
It was Lacey who relieved me.
I'm the one who is most afraid of being looked down upon by others, "just go".
As soon as he stomped his feet and stood up, he didn't dare to look at Bai Xue's expression, and he found a dried corpse and took out a dagger.
But I really hesitated to go under the knife.
"Don't delay time, hurry up", the second senior brother urged again.
Ruthless, gritting my teeth, I whispered to the dry corpse, "Brother, don't blame me, he doesn't want me to cut it, if you want to blame you, I will blame the second senior brother."
After saying that, I went to break my finger to cut it, but this finger was too dry to break it off without me cutting it. It's as easy as breaking a dry branch.
Holding a finger in your hand is completely different from holding a bone, and although there is no moisture, the finger is still a little elastic, a bit disgusting like a caterpillar holding a piece of meat.
After handing over his finger to the second senior brother, he still felt uncomfortable, so he wiped his finger on the ground again.
The second senior brother picked out the bone in his finger with a knife and threw it directly into the bowl, and said to us, "Close your eyes for a while, I didn't say it's okay, don't open it."
"Come, let's sit together with four old men," Zhang San said jokingly.
We looked at each other's faces and smiled, lack of moisture, dry faces full of wrinkles, and it was indeed four old men who looked at us.
"Lacey, you are murderous, you can protect me without closing your eyes, but I don't know if you are bold enough", the second senior brother looked at Lacey and asked.
I thought to myself that Lacey had never seen anything, what was there to be afraid of, the second senior brother despised Lacey.
Lacey also said, "It's okay, it's a big deal, it's a death, what's so scary"
The second senior brother still looked at Lacey and said, "Some things are more terrible than death"
Lacey didn't speak again, and the second senior brother saw Lacey's indifferent look, so he said, "Okay, you sit down with your back to me and help me protect the Dharma, and you can only get up when I tell everyone to open their eyes."
Lacey nodded and sat down, and the second senior brother put his two hands together to make a handprint, drew a few charms in the air behind Lacey, and said to us, "Now close your eyes for me, and again, I didn't tell you to open them, but don't open them."
We all obediently closed our eyes, although we closed our eyes, we could still feel the yellow light from the camp lights in front of us, and then the second senior brother cautiously instructed again, "If you don't want to die, be obedient, don't open your eyes, otherwise I won't be able to save you."
Let's go to sleep, we concentrated the backpack in the middle, and the four "old men" slept on the ground with their backs to the backpack.
After a while, the strange incantation sound of the second senior brother sounded.
I've never heard this kind of mantra before, it's not Sanskrit, it's not nonsense, it's not a grumpy, it sounds a bit like Islamic chanting and a bit like English, I just don't understand it anyway.
At first, the second senior brother read it relatively quietly, but it was okay. But the more he went to the back, the louder the second senior brother's voice became, as if he was summoning something, and slowly the valley had a slight echo.
Originally, it was some very strange and ancient characters, and it sounded very mysterious, and the more these echoes got louder and louder, and slowly all the echoes in my ears were the echoes of the valley, and these echoes slowly accumulated, and the echoes became louder and louder, and after a while, the echoes actually covered up the voice of the second senior brother.
It seems that it is no longer the second senior brother singing, but the entire mountain under the ground has come to life, and it is the sound of the mountain.
As the echo intensified, some dark shadows began to flash rapidly in front of the closed eyelids, like someone running quickly in front of them, who was it?
The swaying black shadow made my heart very uncomfortable, but at this time, another voice joined in, "Woo-woo-woo", is it the sound of the wind or the cry?
I guess it's the sound of the wind, because I feel a gust of wind swirling around, and the dark shadows in front of me become more uncomfortable as this situation continues.
When I was feeling uncomfortable, I suddenly felt a cold and trembling hand scratch my face,
"Ahh
"Xiaoshuai, it's me", it was Zhang San who spoke, "I'm so afraid"
Fuck you, scared me to death, in fact, I'm also afraid, I hurriedly grabbed Zhang San's hand.
The other cold, dry hand touched my face again, and although I was still shocked, it was much better than before.
I grabbed the hand again and asked, "Whose hand is this?"
No one answered.
Can't you hear it? I was a little louder, "Is Zhao Dong your hand?" ”
"No, I'm holding 10,000 camels," Zhao Dong replied.
"How many hands do you hold him", I asked again.
"Two"
I sighed in my heart, Zhang San grabbed my left hand with both hands, and Zhao Dongwan grabbed each other, so whose hand is it?
Who, but the four of us, has such dry hands?
The fear in my heart immediately permeated, and I really wanted to open my eyes and see what was touching my face, but I remembered the instructions of the second senior brother, and I didn't want to be looked down upon by him. In this way, the right hand has been grasping this hand and enduring.
Fortunately, the echo of the entire valley slowly disappeared, and was replaced by the second senior brother's low and peaceful singing. Although I still don't understand it, this singing is obviously full of soothing energy, if it was just a call, this time the low song is a bit like a farewell.
"Okay, open your eyes", I opened my eyes as soon as I heard the order of the second senior brother, as if I had received amnesty.
