Chapter 50: The First Democracy
When too many questions came to mind, my choice was very popular, and I chose to avoid these questions, which I might not be able to understand even if I thought of my head as bald;
But there is one thing I can't escape: the words of the Eye of the Yellow Spring!
It was like a soul sail that swept away my soul, and I couldn't find the slightest reason not to find a reason.
"Don't move any of you, I'll take a look at it myself, I promise to come back to you just a glance at the place where the bald man found the transparent stone, and I won't take any chances", my attitude was very resolute, and it also indicated that this was not a consultation, but only an inform, and almost at the same time as the words fell, the dumb spear had been copied by me in my hand;
"Wu, you wait", the bald man slowly raised his head in contemplation, his eyelids folded into three layers, and a tired look on one side;
"Do you believe that she is actually very willing to sleep with me?" , the bald man suddenly pointed at the tiger girl and asked a clueless question, which immediately provoked the latter's angry eyes;
I couldn't figure out what he wanted to be poor, but I looked at him and shook my head;
"You know it's impossible, but how can you convince us that you can come back from that place? Let's not talk about whether you can make it to that place alive; If there really is a way to escape, you will definitely leave us and run first! A wicked smile erupted from the bald man's face, and he glanced sideways at me;
I was a little annoyed by the bald man's words, and asked coldly, "If it were you, would you leave us alone and escape?" ”;
He was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting me to ask him back, pointed at Huya and said, "Definitely, but I have to take her!" ”;
"Fuck off! Lao Tzu is not as good as you! Everyone's life here is more precious than your gold! I care about each and every one of them! Do you know her? Her name is Huya! Every scar on her body can tell you where it came from! Mute! Do you know him? He is bullied by you all day long, but Lao Tzu treats him as my own family! I promised to take you home, and I will take you out alive! Bald, you dog, why do you look at me like that! ”
A series of filthy mouths were poured on the bald man's head like a fountain, but the thing still squinted at me and smiled wickedly as if it had never heard of it;
"Shanna... But he was right", the tiger girl paused, glanced at the bald man obliquely, and then said:
"If it's really Shandan's killing place, it's too dangerous, let go of the escape methods that you might find, it's already too risky for you to go to that place, not to mention that you have to walk back to find us.....
"What's more... Are you really sure that the swamp and the woods won't rotate elsewhere when you return? By then... We really can't find anyone! Huya walked up to me and said to me indifferently, only this time she didn't hold my hand;
......
I believe that people who have experienced civilized society like me have experienced the endless mysteries of nature, and have also experienced its shyness, its generosity and misery, shocked by its majesty, and tasted its silence;
The surrounding woodland is chic and casual, and the hot springs in the distance are violent and gentle;
The white fog and water vapor at the foot of the mountain seem to be within reach, but they seem to be thousands of miles away;
The four men in the woods, shirtless, were tugging at each piece of cork that could be bent;
Yes, the original lone ranger has now become a four-person companion, and the companion is going to the place that Huya called "Shandan's killing place", and all this has to be said by a show of hands just now;
My obsession is unshakeable by anyone, it's obvious, and in the end... The bald man said to me righteously about the "team democracy" that I have always advocated: since it is the life and death of four people, it is up to the four people to decide whether to go to that swamp or not!
Yes, I understand that I will definitely suffer from such an ending, no matter which angle the three of them look at... It's not like he's going to take an adventure with me, Huya has obviously even made eye contact with the bald man, not to mention dumb, his comfortable appearance of "as long as he's alive" won't follow me when he looks sideways and vertically!
But things turned out to be much more than I expected!
When the bald man shouted his hand to agree to go to the swamp, two arms appeared in the air in an instant, and the bald man even raised his arms higher than me, and he didn't forget to squeeze his eyes at me with his back to the tiger girl with a wicked smile... Just when this 2V2 situation was deadlocked, the third cowardly arm trembled and stretched out, it was the mute, his reason was: "He wants to be with his family", when he said this, his finger pointed straight at me, because just now, I also scolded the bald man and told him that the dumb man is my family, and I will not leave you to escape alone.
This is the whole process of the matter, I have to say, I may have fallen for the bald man's trick again, his evil smile has proved that the voting farce an hour ago was deliberately done by this bastard, and I even suspect that he is deliberately looking for that scolding, in order to force me to say something touching and think that the next vote will be canvassing!
But in any case, the end was going in the direction I had hoped, and almost as soon as the sun had just climbed overhead, we had made four spherical rattan cages out of a hundred corks, which were far from exquisite, not even a cage, but which could be increased by the principle of increasing the contact surface, so that we could walk through the swamp on our feet, and the four cages were pulled by several soft rattans, and even if one of them fell into a puddle of drift, the other three would be out of danger in an instant;
I was reluctant to think about the experience of being driven into the swamp from the west bank by the demon tribe, there was a kind of physical rejection, so when I related the swamp in front of me to the experience at that time, I suddenly felt a wave of nausea, and I even recalled the feeling of dying of thirst, and the "little hand" full of black hair that suddenly stretched out from the bushes, and the dark brown mud and a few strange trees looming on it, making the whole swamp look like a rotten garment worn on a dead person;
A mosquito the size of a fingernail is like a maggot crawling through rotting clothing;
The monstrous smell that spread out of the mire was like the stench of rotting flesh;
And the greasy caused by the pulp under your feet is like corpse oil after a corpse has decomposed!
But all this was nothing compared to our experience in the past three months, and I didn't even feel worried, just a bout of nausea;
I really don't have to be as careful as the tigers, because the swamp is not very large, and I can even faintly see the white mist coming from the boiling water at the other end of the swamp;
But for this crossing of the swamp, we are prepared from supplies to equipment, and as long as there are no major changes, there will never be any accidents;
The third and most important point is that I did not go straight to the depths of the swamp, but to find the cliff that the bald man said about the edge of the woodland, because only when I got there first could the bald man be my guide in the true sense of the word...
I believe that only a fool would step his foot into that real swamp!
