Chapter 15: Dead in the Belly of a Fish
Xia Tong stood in front of me and looked at me with concern.
"Are you okay? How does it feel? ”
"I'm okay, are you okay?" After all, people care about me so much, how can I not care about them?
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern." Xia Tong looked normal. Ay! I thought to myself, how nice it would be if such a beautiful girl could be normal all the time. If only she hadn't come here, she would be happy.
I always wondered why his dad would agree to her coming here.
At this time, Peng Fei suddenly spoke: "Why haven't Mr. Jiang and Cai Shuangdiao come back when they went fishing?" ”
"Yes, it's been a long time, you guys go and see why he hasn't come back for so long?" A worried look appeared on the old professor's face.
Monkey and Peng Fei ran out alone.
At this time, the room was very quiet, and out of curiosity, I looked at the old professor and asked, "Professor Ouyang, how did I come back yesterday?" ”
"You crawled at the door yesterday, and it was the old woman who saw you and told them to carry you in. I was about to ask you, what's the matter with you, why did you lie on your stomach at the door and not move after only a while of going out? ”
The old professor's words surprised me a little, after all, when I came back, I went to a room and saw that unsightly scene. But how did I end up lying at the door? This is also incredible!
So I told the story as it was. Looking at the expressions of the people, they were all very frightened. After all, after all these things, who wouldn't believe that this thing didn't really happen!
"Then when you get better, let's go and find out what we may find in that house."
As he spoke, there was a cry outside.
Something happened, something happened, and my heart couldn't help but tremble.
"What's wrong? Get out there and have a look. "The old professor, as he spoke, cheered and cheered out of the door.
Instinctively, I sat up and walked out of the room with my still weak body in my hands.
I saw the monkey and Peng Fei burst into tears at this moment, and the two of them walked into the courtyard with the crying Cai Shuangdiao.
Could it be that something happened to Expert Jiang? I felt my head dizzy and shook twice, but I was helped by a pair of small hands.
At this time, I realized that Yan Nannan was standing by my side. As everyone flocked to the courtyard, she seemed to be tidying up her medicine box, and she stood almost in the doorway with me, and when she saw me shaking, she reached out to help me.
"Old Professor, I'm sorry, Old Professor. Your beloved disciple, I don't have a good look! Cai Shuangdiao cried and knelt in front of the old professor Ouyang Shuo.
The old professor trembled and asked, "What's wrong with him?" Say it.
"Woo, woo" Cai Shuangdiao, crying snot has crossed the Yellow River.
"Tell me quickly? I'm in a hurry. ”
"He, he was, was eaten by a strange fish." Cai Shuangdiao finally said the reason.
Everyone was crying, and my tears were flowing silently. I've always been like this, the more painful I am, the less I will cry. The more this cry seemed to be, the deeper it became, and I could barely breathe.
"Let's go, I'll go see if there's anything left behind where he left us." The old professor was in tears, and his steps staggered like he was walking outside the courtyard.
Everyone followed, and I was supported by Yan Nannan and walked at the back.
The moment I left the gate of the courtyard, I felt a pair of eyes staring at my back, and I felt the cold on my back, as cold as a yin wind.
I looked back and saw the old woman standing where I had been standing, staring at me. That look was a hideous and sharp look, like a knife, and everywhere it went, it felt like digging three feet into the ground.
When I looked back, a look of sympathy and sadness appeared on her face. This change did not escape my eyes, and this look was so familiar to me, could it be that she was dressed by someone I knew and could not be more familiar with?
However, an old woman in her sixties, looking at her figure, will never be who she is pretending to be. But what is the explanation for that look?
I thought about it and walked for a long time before I came to the riverside north of the road where we came.
Thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting on the surface of the river, the white snow fell on it, like a white quilt. Only where the wind blows away can the ice-like surface of the river be exposed.
Cai Shuangdiao cried all the way and led everyone to the place where the Lan expert fished.
The ice cave in front of me is very large, with a diameter of six or seven meters, and the fish in it are still jumping from time to time. There are huge cracks in the ice on both sides, and if you get close, you may sink.
I saw a woven bag containing fish in the broken ice far from this ice cave, so I walked over and silently picked it up, and there were four big fish in it. I knew that this was the fish that Mr. Jiang forked, and when I saw things and thought about people, tears poured down again.
No one paid attention to this, and Cai Shuangdiao was talking over there: "Old professor, Mr. Jiang is spearing fish by this ice cave, and I am picking up a fish that he forked." Originally, this ice cave was not big, the size of a basin, but at this time, I heard a loud bang, and the ice surface was hit by a big fish. I watched Mr. Jiang's body sink like water.
I yelled, Mr. Jiang. Before he could speak, he saw what appeared to have fallen into the mouth of a large, black fish. And this huge ice cave that was knocked open was just a relatively sharp part of the strange fish. And the whole skull, the size of the head of a big truck. I didn't dare to think how big my body was, and I was also lucky, with the ice cubes that were offered, I rolled out a long way, and then I was afraid and fell, and I fainted.
I don't know how long it took, I woke up, I cried, I didn't know what to do, I was really scared to death. I was crying when the two of them, Monkey and Peng Fei, came and dragged me away. That's it, old professor. I don't want to stay here anymore, I want to go back, I can't stand it anymore! ”
Cai Shuangdiao, crying in a mess. I know what a horrible scene it must have been!
"Yes, old professor, let's go back, I don't think we can accept this successive blows." The monkey said with tears in his eyes.
The old professor opened his mouth, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then fainted.
"Don't talk about it, and don't panic. Carry the old professor back. ”
Everyone hurriedly lifted up the old professor and hurriedly walked back.
When I returned to the old woman's hut and covered the old professor with a quilt, everyone was silent. The air in the room was tense and lifeless.
Yan Nannan gave the old professor an injection, and it took a long time for the old professor to wake up. He didn't look sad, but smiled slightly bitterly and said: "In any career, there will be people who dedicate themselves to the cause, and the cause will have to be advanced layer by layer through the ages and move towards glory." Mr. Jiang was also my first graduate student. He stayed in the archaeological team and did archaeological careers, and he was also influenced by me. I don't feel so sad about his death, but I am proud of him. After all, this is a contribution to the country, and he sacrificed himself. ”
He said that he was not sad, who would believe. Every word he said was actually to encourage everyone to cheer up.
No one made a sound, after all, the old professor's words were not unreasonable.
"Okay, let's go our own way, I'll do the fish stew today." I raised the fish that Mr. Jiang was still holding in my hand.
