Chapter 44: Human Nature
The moment Brother Hong left, he showed a smile, probably a real relief. I let out a long sigh, it wasn't my intention, but I had to.
Brother Long walked up to me at this time, patted me and said, "Xiaowen, I know you are very sad, but sometimes, there is really no way. ”
I nodded and sighed, in this place, there were seventeen of us in a group, and I was the only one left.
I couldn't help but think of the old man in prison, if I really had to punch him at that time, maybe I would still be happily eating prison food in prison now, and Brother Hong was still his KTV boss.
Life is impermanent, perhaps this is the case.
Zhang Siqiao also walked over at this time and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
I shook my head and walked to the side, I needed to be quiet.
This is the situation I didn't expect from the moment I came in.
We are all bewitched by the treasures here.
Brother Long came over at this time and sat next to me, followed by Lu Xiaodan and Zhang Siqiao.
I'm a little annoyed, and at this time they sit over, doesn't that disturb my train of thought?
Brother Long patted me and said, "Don't blame me for bothering you, we don't have much time, so you have to cheer up as soon as possible." ”
Lu Xiaodan said on the other side: "Your state makes us very worried. ”
I knew they were well-intentioned, but I didn't really feel anything right now, and I let out a long sigh and said, "Is it really worth it?" ”
"What?" Brother Long may not have understood for a while, but when he heard me say this, he asked strangely.
"Seventeen of us came in, and now I'm the only one left. What about you? There were more than 30 people coming in, and now there are only a few of them. I whispered, "Is it really worth it for the treasures?" ”
Brother Long didn't speak, just listened quietly, and I said, "Does human desire make people forget death?" ”
Brother Long also sighed, and then said: "There is no way, sometimes, human desires are like this, death will always happen, even if you don't die now, what about the future?" ”
"But why is this way of dying?" I got a little angry and yelled, "If we hadn't come in, maybe we'd have died of illness and old age." Even if it is suicide, whether it is a crime and being shot, which way of death is not better than this way of death? ”
Brother Long was stunned, obviously not knowing how to answer.
Lu Xiaodan said in the back: "You're right, but maybe, this is the fate of our people." Have you ever thought about it, if we choose comfort, who will come in? Didn't we think it was dangerous when we came in? ”
I found out for the first time that although Lu Xiaodan's words were simple, they did make sense.
In fact, from the moment I saw that picture, I should have thought that entering here was a dead end, but I completely ignored the threat of death.
And more importantly, we have experienced the threat of death in the Endless Swamp, but we still choose to move forward.
This is human nature, as long as death does not happen to you, will you always follow your desires?
A few people over there may have noticed that our voice was a bit loud, and they all looked over, but after a few glances, they found that there was nothing wrong, and they all turned their heads away.
Brother Long smiled and said, "Xiaowen, when you embark on this path, you have already made a choice. Now, too, you can choose to move on with us. Of course, if you want to go back, it may be that you go back alone, because we have to move forward. ”
I sat down and felt like my whole spirit was on the verge of a breakdown, what should I do?
Go back, I believe that as long as I take a break, I will be able to rush back soon, as long as I run all the way, there will be no problem.
But what happens when you go back? I promised Brother Hong to take care of his wife and children.
Also, Brother Long and the others still have to move forward, and they won't give up.
If that's the case, I can't predict what will happen next.
Do they have the ability to go through this kind of trap city?
If I'm gone, Zhang Shihong will be the only one who understands these things.
But his level, it's really not that I underestimate him.
I smiled wryly, I now know what a dilemma is.
There are some things that maybe it's really good to avoid.
Of course, there is no way to avoid it now, I have to choose.
What should I do? How do I choose?
Brother Long looked at his watch, and then said, "The time is coming, we have to move on, Xiaowen, you can see it according to your own situation." Here we go. Let's go. ”
His last words were shouted to the others.
Everyone got moving, and I sat like that except me, because I didn't want to get up at all.
I thought about how I should choose, and now my heart is really like two tigers fighting.
That sense of conflict, I feel that if I don't solve it properly, I am likely to split my personality.
When Zhang Siqiao stood up at this time, he glanced back at me, saw that several other people had already walked towards the sarcophagus, turned to me and said, "We need you, and I need you." ”
I glanced up at her, and found that there was no playful look in her eyes, and she was saying this seriously, and I felt a shock in my heart.
Zhang Siqiao had already run towards the sarcophagus.
A few of them turned the sarcophagus vigorously, and I saw Brother Hong's body slowly turning in the sarcophagus, and then several other sarcophagi also began to rotate, making a roaring sound.
The large sarcophagus in the middle also began to turn, and another large mechanism should have been activated.
I just don't know what they're going to face.
Yes, it's them, and if I leave now, they'll be the next place to face, not me.
They're dead, because the mechanism behind me, I'm sure it won't be easier than it is now.
I smiled wryly, what should I choose now.
If I go out, a few more people will die here, and they will definitely die.
If I stay, maybe we'll all die here, but maybe, I can take them all out.
Sometimes, human nature is like that.
Forget it, I got up and walked towards them.
Brother Long was doing mobilization work at this time, and shouted: "There are still three organs, we will enter the last place, and when the time comes, we will do whatever we want." Let's fight for it. ”
Those people were immediately stirred up by him. I said coldly: "If I didn't pour cold water on you, how do you know that when you enter the city, there will be no organs?" ”
Brother Long was stunned for a moment, looked back at me, and then suddenly laughed, and then said, "I'm not afraid of having a mechanism, because you're back." ”
I chuckled, it seemed that Brother Long was really familiar with people's hearts, and he knew that I had made my own choice.
Zhang Siqiao pounced at this time, grabbed my hand, shook it and said, "Do you want to go in with us?" ”
I was a little stunned, I was grabbed by a woman like this, or for the first time, I looked at my hand, a little I didn't know what to do, shake it off?
Just thinking about it, Zhang Siqiao also discovered his gaffe and immediately let go of his hand.
"Now that you've decided to go with us, you're one of us." Brother Long came over at this time, punched me hard in the chest, and then said, "Xiao Dan, Siqiao." You focus on protecting him. ”
"Less." I immediately said: "Don't talk about protecting me, you better protect yourself, I won't be responsible for encountering such a thing in the future." ”
Brother Long laughed twice, and then said: "It's troublesome, we have so many people coming in, it is very likely that some of them are still alive in some places, but unfortunately, we don't have time to go to them." ”
I know it's a helpless thing, and now it's nice that we can get inside, and we can't pull more people to find the survivors.
But I'm okay with them, because there's no one coming in with me anymore.
"If you talk again, you really won't have time," Lu Xiaodan said on the side: "Who knows what's going on next, we have to leave quickly." ”
"Alright, yes." Brother Long immediately pretended to be pandering and said.
Lu Xiaodan glared at him fiercely.
Brother Long said with a smile: "Okay, Shihong, you take two people to press, I will take Ruhu and another to explore the way, Xiao Dan, Siqiao, you and Xiaowen are in the middle." Whoever loses it, he can't lose it, and you will take good care of him. ”
"Don't worry." Lu Xiaodan and Zhang Siqiao replied in unison, but they felt that the state of the two people was different.
I shook my head, knowing that Brother Long was joking, but at the same time, it was also an order.
Speaking of which, his joking way of telling serious things sometimes makes people have to accept it.
We got into action again, and when we walked out of the stone house, we found that the road outside had been completely closed at some point, and it was great that we finally didn't have to take those narrow paths.
We quickly found a room and opened the sarcophagus, and Brother Long had rushed down with Wen Ruhu and another person.
I followed Lu Xiaodan and Zhang Siqiao in the second wave, and Zhang Shihong followed behind with other people.
After running a few stone steps, the exit is below.
I saw that Brother Long and the man had already jumped.
Lu Xiaodan and I had just arrived over there, and suddenly heard a scream below, fortunately, this voice was not Brother Long and Brother Tiger.
I'll go, what's going on next?
Something happened before we landed, how happened to Brother Long.
Just thinking about it, Brother Long's voice came, and he said almost with a roar: "After coming down, quickly run to the house on the side, be fast, don't stop, and notify the people behind." ”
We immediately notified Zhang Shihong, who came up from behind.
Then I gritted my teeth and jumped down, I opened my eyes, wanting to see what was going on below, so that Brother Long could shout like this.
But a flash of light flashed by, and I felt a little black in front of my eyes, and I was caught in the eye.
Damn, I just came down and encountered this kind of bad luck.
