Chapter 181: The Corpse Hanging on the Cave (Second Watch)
Obviously, he can refine the ghost child, but in the end, he gouged out the other party's heart and killed the other party, what did the high priest want to do?
Heart? Got your heart taken out?
I vaguely felt as if I had caught some clue, but when I thought about it, I couldn't figure out what it was.
Before I could figure it out, a shovel was handed to me, and on the other end of it was a young archaeologist who was wiping sweat.
Come on. It's time to get to work. People think I'm lazy, let's hurry up, at this time, people's stability is the most important, but I can't stand the toss.
I took the shovel and silently went to the pit to help dig up the dirt.
The pit was not dug very deep, and after digging to a depth of about 20 centimeters, we stopped. This kind of rocky land is the most difficult to excavate, not to mention the hard land, there are many stones in it, and it is much more difficult to dig than the grave pits on the plains.
After the grave was dug, the next step was to carry Yao Haifeng's body into the grave. I filled in the dirt on it, and finally felt that the soil was not enough, so I took the team to pick up a lot of rocks and put them on top of the grave, in addition to being used as a covering. It's more for the sake of marking.
After all, Yao Haifeng still has a family, and when we are rescued, we will find an opportunity to come back, bring his body back for cremation, and hand over the ashes to his family in Chongqing.
After everything was cleaned up, it was already dark, and it was about to get dark.
"Ji Zang, what should we do next? Camp here, or go into a cave? Professor Liang asked.
"Let's camp, I don't have any physical strength now, it's getting dark, it's a bit unlikely to climb into that cave, let's put safety first."
When camping in the wilderness, safety and water sources are two very important indicators, so I discussed it with Professor Liang and decided to camp at a location some distance from the waterfall.
It is close to a rock wall groove, and it is surrounded by stone walls on three sides, so it is very safe, and if you have a vigil, you only need to guard the opening side.
It's a bit of a hassle to get water, because when we camped at the mouth of the valley, we ate the water that flowed directly from the river.
But now that Yao Haifeng's body has been soaked in the pool under the waterfall, and then eating the water inside, it will always make people a little psychologically resistant, and only the water falling from the waterfall is really clean.
Now the waterhole under the waterfall has become a nightmare for everyone, such as it is almost dark today, no one dares to go there, so the task of fetching water falls on me, at least I am not worried about the sneak attack of those ghost boys.
I told everyone to light a fire at the entrance to the camp, and after being on guard, I walked in the direction of the waterfall with a large water bladder.
In fact, this time we are really to blame for being careless, because according to the rules of survival in the wild, at all times, the team must leave plenty of clean fresh water to prevent water contamination. or a lack of fresh water.
We prepared a water bladder, but when we came in, we saw that there was such a clear water source, and no one wanted to walk with a big water bladder on their backs, so we didn't store fresh water, but we encountered such a situation again.
In fact, to be honest, even if you drink the water in the pool, it's no problem, after all, the amount of water in the waterfall is so large, even if Yao Haifeng's body has been soaked in it, it has long been diluted to the point that there is not much left, but people are like this, they feel disgusting in their hearts, they can't drink it, and I am the same.
I took the water bladder to the edge of the waterfall, there was a big rock on this side, sticking out of the waterhole quite a bit, just enough to touch the edge of the waterfall, but a little far away from the cave, but I could see the whole mouth of the cave. It's dark inside, and you can't see it clearly.
I came to the front of the big rock, reached out and took the water bladder, placed it under the waterfall, and began to pick up the water. If we were holding a bucket, it would be full in ten seconds, but our container is such a bladder the size of an egg.
There was an iron kettle for boiling water in the team's utensils, but I forgot to take it, and it was too much trouble for me to go back at the moment. It's just going to come.
I stood on the rock, stretched my arms hard, and the water that fell from the cliff, the splash of the waterfall, quickly soaked my clothes. As the water bladder bulged up little by little, the force on my arm became heavier and heavier, and it gradually became a little sore.
I withdrew my arm, ready to rest for a moment before going back to fetch water. Out of boredom, his gaze swept to the dark cave.
The light on the horizon had not completely disappeared, and under the illumination of the bright light, I could clearly see a figure hanging above the cave. It is swaying slightly with the mountain wind.
Through the waterfall, I couldn't see the real situation of the figure clearly, but I still subconsciously popped up a name in my mind: Liang Shuang.
It must have been Liang Shuang's body, which was killed by the high priest and hung at the entrance to the cave. Maybe. The High Priest and his ghost boys were now hiding in the dark caverns, watching me through the waterfall.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but stand up my hairs, and I no longer had the heart to continue to receive water. Anyway, the water bladder is already filled with most of the water, so we can save a little and save enough water for us to eat and drink tonight.
I put the lid on the water bladder and hurried back in three steps and two steps, and I saw the blazing bonfire in the distance. When I got back to the camp, my hanging heart relaxed.
Dong Xin, who was in charge of cooking, took the water bladder that only contained more than half of the water, was stunned for a moment, and didn't say anything, but Liao Shengchao beside her couldn't help but speak: "I ran for a long time, why did I get half of the water back?" ”
I glanced at him and ignored him, this guy had a very close relationship with Yao Haifeng and Liang Shuang before, and he was also a guy who liked to talk about it.
I went straight to Professor Leung, and Professor Leung saw that there was something wrong with my face. He immediately lowered his voice and asked, "Ji Zang, is something wrong?" ”
I pulled him to the far corner, and whispered in his ear about the figure I had seen at the entrance to the cave.
After hearing this, Professor Liang's face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Are you sure you read it right?" ”
"Professor. Think about it, the two of them stayed over there and didn't come along, one of them is dead, and the other is still good? ”
"Oh, yes. I also knew something must have happened, but ......" Professor Liang did not say any more.
I knew in my heart that it was a fluke, even if I guessed, before I saw the real result. Most people will still hold on to hope.
Professor Liang wiped the corners of his eyes, suppressed some ups and downs, and said to me: "Don't talk about this matter first, everyone needs to rest, and they also need a stable mentality, otherwise it is easier to have an accident." ”
"I understand."
Dinner is still some high-calorie compressed food, and after boiling in water, it tastes like a sticky paste, and it tastes really bad. Dong Xin seemed to see that everyone's appetite was not high, so he opened a few packets of instant noodles and cooked a pot, which was regarded as an additional meal.
I swear, it's the best instant noodle I've ever had, and I really live up to that saying, there is no harm if there is no comparison. Ate the disgusting mush before. Nowadays, when I eat instant noodles, I think they are extremely delicious.
After eating, I let everyone go to bed early, and I stayed to keep vigil, and Professor Liang arranged for two male team members to keep vigil with me. The main thing is to talk to me and prevent me from falling asleep.
The guy who arranged for me in the middle of the night was actually Liao Shengchao, and I didn't like him a little bit, so the two of them didn't have anything to say.
The atmosphere was embarrassing, Dong Xin got out of the tent, came to the bonfire, and said to Liao Shengchao: "I'm a little insomnia, I want to talk to Ji Zang, you go to sleep first." ”
Liao Shengchao left, and I looked at Dong Xin, who was staring at the bonfire, and my heart was full of doubts: What is this girl coming to me for? When Yao Haifeng's body was found before, why did she show a happy expression?
"Ji Zang, tell me, is Liang Shuang also dead?" Dong Xin asked.
"What are you asking for?"
"When you came back from fetching water just now, your face was very bad, you must have seen something, I guess there is only Liang Shuang's corpse."
I didn't know how to answer, so I was silent.
"What would you think if I told you that I knew the two of them were dead and were happy?" Dong Xin said with a sneer.
"Huh?! Why? ”
I don't understand, Dong Xin doesn't look like a vicious woman.
