Chapter 21: Dead End
I sat on the ground with the fawn and giggled for a while, and then he reluctantly stopped and said, "I thought you wouldn't wake up!" ”
"Your uncle! Curse me, don't you? I scolded. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"You don't know, when I saw you, you weren't human." Fawn Road.
I hurriedly subconsciously asked, "Where is this?" What the hell is going on? ”
Xiaolu grinned, "Last time you left me alone, I was about to ask you what was going on!" ”
I looked at his strange expression, suddenly realized something, and said, "Am I calling your name at that time?" ”
Xiaolu nodded and said, "That's right! I'm right next to you, and you ignore me, and then you don't know where to go! ”
I immediately understood that Xiaolu had the same experience as me, so I told him everything that happened after that, especially when I talked about Qin Zihao's disappearance, his face became solemn.
Xiaolu held his chin, thought for a moment, and then frowned and said, "It is very likely that we were hallucinating at the time, so we couldn't see each other." ”
I wondered, "Hallucinations? Is it so evil? ”
Xiaolu nodded slightly and said, "Since you and I have experienced the same situation, this incident is by no means accidental, and the biggest possibility is that we have hallucinations." The hallucinations may be a problem with the air in the woods, or it may be the presence of some kind of radioactive material in the vicinity that is causing the person to be delirious. ”
I listened to the deer's analysis, and couldn't help asking: "Then you also suddenly fell into the water and were washed here?" ”
Looking at Xiaolu again, he showed a strange expression, shook his head and said slowly: "No! I fainted after you were gone, and when I woke up, I was already here. ”
When I heard this, I wondered, I was knocked unconscious and taken to the warehouse, and the fawn fainted but was taken to this underground cave, could it be that someone deliberately wanted to separate us?
I told the fawn what I thought and asked him if he had any opinions, but the fawn shook his head bitterly and said, "If that's the case, then he saved you, but he wanted to kill me!" ”
"Why?" I asked.
The fawn patted me on the shoulder and said, "Come with me, you'll know." ”
I didn't know what the fawn was going to show me, so I struggled to my feet, hooked his neck, tried to keep my balance, and then limped slowly after him.
The cave is very wide, the roof is also very high, and the oxygen capacity should be sufficient. The walls of the cave are all hard rock, uneven, and very wet. The water was flowing so fast that I felt a sudden feeling of nausea, and after all the tossing and turning, I swore I would never go to the water's edge again.
The fawn carried a searchlight and took me downstream along the current, and from time to time the water would splash on the shore, so the soles of my feet were very slippery, and I hooked the fawn with one hand and the wall of the cave with the other, and walked cautiously forward, for fear that I would fall into the water again.
After walking for a while, the fawn stopped, pointed to the front and said, "No way!" ”
I saw that the cave wall in front of us had become very narrow, and the water was flowing towards the slit, and we had no way to go any further, unless we swam through the water, it would be a dead end. But the speed of the water is very fast, and I have learned it before, and if you go down into the water like this, you will definitely die.
I understand what the fawn means, whether it is upstream or downstream, it is a fantasy thing, so aren't we trapped here?
I shook my head in annoyance and said, "You've been stuck here and haven't figured out anything you can do?" ”
Xiaolu was obviously a little helpless and said: "I'm waiting for you to save me!" ”
I was stunned all of a sudden, this situation has always been my counting on the fawn, and now that he has no idea, then we really have to wait for death.
I sat down in despair, and suddenly, a foul smell hit my nose. I turned around and saw a black mass piled up on the ground. I looked over with a searchlight, and it was clearly a person sitting on the ground! I screamed in fright and quickly shook off the searchlight.
"Don't be afraid, the man is dead." The fawn said.
"Holy! Why didn't you say it earlier! I'm even more scared of the dead! I yelled.
I was already in a cold sweat, and when I came back to my senses, I hurriedly picked up the searchlight and shone it again. The corpse did not show much signs of decay, and was covered in a layer of grayish-white corpse wax, which should have been formed by the relatively hot and humid inside the cave. The facial details of the corpse were somewhat blurred due to the concealment of corpse wax, but the overall figure was a little bloated, and I don't know if it was obese before death or puffy after death.
The fawn patted me on the shoulder and said, "I found him when I came, looking at the thickness of the corpse wax, he has been dead for a long time, and he should be trapped here like us, and then starved to death." ”
My face twitched, I looked at the fawn in shock, and said timidly, "Could it be that we are also trapped here?!" ”
The fawn sighed and said, "Almost, in fact, I was ready to die before." But when I found you, I was so surprised that I thought you were here to save me! ”
I smiled bitterly and said angrily: "It's good if I don't hold you back, don't have any hope for me." ”
I know that saying this will inevitably disappoint the fawn, but in this situation, we must recognize the reality and never have any illusions, otherwise there will be no chance of escape.
The fawn sat there and didn't speak anymore, usually the way he looked meant that he was thinking, but now I guess he was conserving his strength, after all, if he could figure out a way, he wouldn't be trapped here all the time.
The atmosphere froze for a while, and after a short stalemate, I began to grope around the walls of the cave with a searchlight, and I saw that the protagonists of those novels were trapped in the cave, and suddenly found the mechanism on the wall, and finally survived.
I know we don't have a protagonist aura, but I'm not the kind of person who gives up easily. I groped inch by inch on the walls of the cave, and wherever I could reach them, I touched them all over again. Sadly, I found nothing but the wet mud that was blackened by one hand.
Loneliness, fear, and despair came to me like a tidal wave, and I collapsed weakly on the ground, this time literally dead.
I've seen on TV that humans can live for a few weeks with only drinking water, but now the problem is not only physical, but also psychological, how long a person can live without eating and drinking water depends largely on the willpower of the person who wants to survive. No matter how strong our desire to survive is, no one will come to our rescue.
