CHAPTER XLIII
Since entering this nest of the Pleiades, several of us have been exhausted, we have never had a good rest at all, and we have no concept of time, and we don't know how long it has been outside.
In fact, the fat man and I have long been overdrawn and sleepy, but Liu Fangliang has been hiding in the corridor of the Pleiades Nest, waiting for rescue, plus carrying dry food with him, he is much more energetic than the two of us.
But for Liu Fangliang, I feel a little strange, logically speaking, since he was swallowed into this underground world by the bronze coffin, he has been waiting for us on the first floor of the Pleiades Nest? He was so sure that we would find this place and get him out? For seven days, he has been waiting in place?
I don't think this Liu Fangliang is like a fat man, he is the kind of brainless person, normal people are lost in this underground world, and it is absolutely impossible to just hide in the tunnels and sit and eat and wait for death.
Human beings are animals with a strong desire to survive, if it were me, I would never be able to hide in the corridor, but enter the nest of the Pleiades to find a way out, this is the thinking and action that normal people should have.
This Liu Fangliang may have some unknown secrets hidden in his body, but they are not known to us.
But now I can't control this, from Bagong Mountain to this underground world, all the way to the bloody rain, my spirit is highly concentrated, until I met Xi Chen, with her to such a secret and quiet place, the original tense nerves gradually relaxed, but the feeling of mental sleepiness also became stronger.
When I relaxed, I realized how tired I was.
I was mentally exhausted, I couldn't talk at this time, I just wanted to find a place to sleep well, sleep until it was dark, and no one wanted to disturb me.
looked around, on the bed in Xi Chen's room, there was also Wang Yuanshan, the wounded, I can't occupy the magpie's nest and the seriously injured and comatose old man occupy the bed!
After thinking about it, I decided to go to the courtyard outside the room and find a random piece of land to sleep with the fat man.
"Our brother is really sleepy, and if you want to take a rest in Comrade Xi Chen's yard, you don't have to worry, we are not bad people, and we will not have any ill will towards you!" I was afraid that Xi Chen was still wary of me, so I comforted her again.
Xi Chen didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, seeing this, I didn't say much, walked to the bed and said hello to Liu Fangliang, and the two of us walked out of the door.
When I was about to go out, I was still fantasizing in my heart, what if Xi Chen made a statement to let me rest in the bronze palace?
Am I promised? Or don't say yes?
But thinking about it, the reality is always very skinny, it is impossible for a serious woman to keep me in the morning, as soon as I walked out, she couldn't wait to close the door.
I looked back at the closed bronze gate, and I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, I was thinking!
The fat man came over with a copper basin and said to me, "Commander Liu, hey! Not to mention, this big girl's face wash is quite good to drink, it's so fragrant! Would you like a bite? ”
I didn't drink a few sips of water along the way, I was already very thirsty, not to mention that the copper basin was filled with the washing water that Xi Chen had freshened up, even if it was someone's foot washing water or bath water, I couldn't care so much, and I took the copper basin, regardless of the three, seven, twenty-one, and coo, it was a whale swallowing dragon drink for a while, until my stomach was full.
The fat man was frightened before, and was injured by the red snake turned into a blood baby, and now although he has recovered, he is also very tired, after handing me the copper basin, he sat in the courtyard against a copper pillar and kept snorting in his mouth, and saw that I finished drinking water and began to hum and chirp and said, "How is it?" Why did your kid and Liu Fangliang's eldest brother suddenly run out? Is it that your kid wants to do bad things to other people's big girls? Haha......"
I walked over, threw my backpack at my feet, and scolded him with a smile: "Commissar Wang, you kid should keep a little virtue!" Uncle I don't care about my innocence, it's okay no matter what you say, don't spoil the innocence of other people's big girls......"
After that, I took my backpack as a pillow and lay down on the ground.
When I was talking to the fat man, in fact, I had been silently paying attention to Liu Fangliang, this Liu Fangliang was also strange to say, the whole person was like a stuffy oil bottle, and he didn't say a word for a long time, after he came out, a person sat on the stone steps with a sapper shovel in his hands, his eyes were empty, as if he was in a daze, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
Seeing this, I casually asked, "Hi! Brother, what are you thinking? How rarely do you talk along the way. ”
Liu Fangliang came back to his senses when he heard the sound, looked back at me and said, "You two better go to bed early!" Time is running out for us! ”
"We're running out of time?" I didn't know why, and was about to continue asking, but he waved his hand, leaned against the bronze pillar and closed his eyes to recuperate.
But he didn't seem to be joking, and it didn't seem alarmist to say this, and I couldn't help but feel nervous.
With confusion and doubt, I couldn't help but sit up and grope around the yard, trying to find something to burn as a bonfire to keep warm.
In this cold and dark underground time, there is no bonfire to keep warm, and I really can't sleep, especially when the fat man and I were attacked by the blood baby before, the clothes on our bodies were all torn, and now everyone is in tattered clothes, wearing striped clothes and covered in blood and beggars.
I'm afraid that I'll get sick when I sleep on this cold and cold ground, but I can't find a doctor in this place, and the only old Chinese medicine doctor, Wang Yuanshan, is now unable to protect himself.
I searched around, but I couldn't find anything to burn, eighty percent of the things here were cast in bronze, and just when I was feeling quite embarrassed, I saw the door of the Bronze Palace suddenly open.
Xi Chen came out of the room, holding a blood-red quilt in her hand, and she didn't know where she found it.
Xi Chen walked up to us, put the blood-red quilt in his hand on the ground, bowed and bowed, and then returned to his room.
I picked up this blood-red quilt, and I couldn't help but have some doubts in my heart, you must know that this nest of the Pleiades has existed for thousands of years, and for these two thousand years, the people of the Queen Mother of the West have been living in this underground world, so the question is, how did the clothes on Xi Chen's body and this quilt come from?
Was it snatched from the outside world, or was it spun by itself?
