Chapter 7: The Ghost Cave
After eating the wild fruits, Camp Commander Zhao said to us: "I already knew about your loss of the car, otherwise I wouldn't have sent someone to pick you up." So many of those cars have already arrived, and the person who stole them has already been beaten away by me. Fuck, six tomb robbers, actually stole three of your cars, alas, I hid it from you. Otherwise, it will be a trouble to reach the ears above. ”
We were amazed to hear that those people actually found this place; Happily, the trouble is gone. Just now, I was worried about how to explain to my superiors, so I found a wild fruit and lost the car. That's three Humvees, and those new bombs, all of which are ultra-concentrated miniature bombs, small in size, but more explosive than ordinary bombs.
Leng Feng hurriedly asked, "You guys have run away, what the hell are you going to do?" ”
Camp Commander Zhao pointed to a corner of the tent: "It's all there." ”
We hurriedly ran over, poured out all their things, and looked through them carefully. Sure enough, it was a tomb robber, and there were candles, shovels, and fire folds inside. We haven't prepared candles and fire folds yet. Shovels shouldn't be needed here, they're all rocks under their feet, and the holes are blown up, so there's no shovel. We distributed the bombs, took the water bottles back, and had to pull out some wild fruits and put them on the table in order to put them back in our backpacks. Happily, Camp Commander Zhao put the wild fruits in a plastic bag and hid them in the corner under the bed.
Battalion Commander Zhao looked at his watch and pointed to the flat place outside, "That's your camp, I'll let the people below clean it up for you." Make enough for you. Wait until you set up your tent and eat together. See the food truck outside, the food cooked by our cooking class is the standard of a star hotel. Battalion Commander Zhao boasted triumphantly to us. Outside, he pouted and walked out with his backpack.
It was already dark when we set up the tent, and we were tired enough to choke, and it was full of stones, and the steel nails were smashed and bent. Those big-headed soldiers looked at us giggling on the side, and when the tent was set up, we knew that this place was specially found by Battalion Commander Zhao for us, just because he wanted to make it difficult for us.
The food is good, at the level of a general restaurant, but far worse than the star. The food we ate in the lobby of our hotel in Xi'an was not even better than that. Battalion Commander Zhao asked us, "How is it?" Isn't it delicious? We all said, "It's delicious." "I'm hungry, can I continue to be hungry? If it's not delicious, you have to eat it. Hearing us say that it was delicious, Camp Commander Zhao smiled proudly: "I'll just say, the quality of our food is definitely high-level." In recent years, the state has been improving our living conditions, and food is the fastest improvement. ”
Looking at Battalion Commander Zhao's proud appearance, we were a little sad, for the sake of national security, they paid too much. The increase in the state's military budget is nothing more than an improvement in their food, and they are content to the point of pride. These are simply not worth mentioning compared to foreign soldiers, that is, Taiwanese soldiers still eat eight dishes and one soup, and the cooks are all professionals with chef certificates, so their soldiers still don't think the food is delicious. Compare them to each other, our soldiers' meals are lovely. The unhappiness of being tricked by Camp Commander Zhao just now also melted in his thoughts.
After dinner, we gathered in Camp Commander Zhao's tent to discuss the situation of entering the cave tomorrow for a while, and Camp Commander Zhao told us about the situation they had discovered by the guards here these days. They found that the black fog in the cave was actually changed by the moon's absence. When the moon is at its largest and roundest, the black fog of the cave also emits the widest range. When the crescent moon sprouts, the black mist only coils around the mouth of the cave. Also, these black fogs are afraid of fire, they have tried more than once, and every time they throw fire, the black fog dodges as if they have a mind. "We once sent people with torches and a few people in the black mist, and we went to the entrance of the cave to check more than once, but there was no damage." Battalion Commander Zhao slowly spoke, "We have also sent people down, but there is nothing below." Not only are there no flying saucers, but there are no more of us missing. His tone was a little lost, "We don't dare to go too deep, after all, this kind of thing has never been encountered." It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I want to find a way to go deeper with fewer casualties. I am responsible for my soldiers and cannot send them to their deaths. He paused and said, "Rest early, and tomorrow I will send someone to make torches to help you go down." I will continue to be stationed here and wait for you for half a month. If you can't get out for half a month, I will report to the state, and it will be up to the state to decide whether to reorganize people or blow up this place. ”
In the morning, looking at Leng Feng, who was still sleeping in my arms, my heart was full of happiness. Last night, I went to call Li Meiting out and asked her to sleep with Lu Liang, because she had already slept like this when Leng Feng was exorcized, and although she was shy, she still obeyed my arrangement.
We only had seven tents, all of them for two people. As for the four drivers, they have been sleeping in the seats. The seats of the Humvees were modified to lie flat and form a double bed. In the beginning, they asked the four girls to go to sleep, and we didn't know at the time, and we could all guess how uncomfortable it was to sleep in the seats, so no one went. No one thought that the seats in this car had been transformed, and it was too late to regret it. They said we gave it up ourselves, and then we took it and didn't give it to them. But Bai Ling's little girl was very powerful, and she beat Liu Jinnan until she slept in the tent.
I kissed her gently, Leng Feng opened his eyes in a daze, looked at me and smiled: "It's dawn?" I nodded, then straightened up some of my clothes and walked out holding hands. Everyone has seen it, so naturally they are not surprised, but Camp Commander Zhao and they don't know, when they saw us holding hands and coming out, they stretched their necks one by one, as if they were choking.
As soon as he saw it, he had a feeling of being surprised by Leng Feng, and I could naturally feel it, so I came up with such a method, and I stopped him from thinking about it. In fact, Camp Commander Zhao is very handsome, and he is only thirty-four or five, and he can be regarded as young and promising, but he has a bumpy love road. For these field teams, the love road is not smooth. I don't think I would have dragged it out until now if I hadn't been home.
Battalion Commander Zhao smiled a little awkwardly: "Okay, just get up." It's time to eat. He pointed to the small building in the distance: "There is a toilet, and next to it is a bathroom, where you can wash." When you've washed it, the meal will be ready. ”
Seeing that the women's toilet next to it was built with branches and weeds, and the weeds were still green, we knew that this was just ordered by Camp Commander Zhao. It's done specifically for these girls, and it's hard for him to have this thought.
Breakfast is relatively simple, millet porridge, steamed buns, small pickles, and an egg per person. After eating, Camp Commander Zhao asked people to bring a pot of eggs, and said with a smile: "You may not have so much time to eat after you go down, these eggs, six per person, six or six Shun, can support your nutrition for three days." These eggs are cooked, and even if they are broken, they will not stain the backpack. I wanted to cook a few more, but I was afraid that it would be bad in the heat, so I thought about it for a long time before I decided to make this number. ”
We put away the eggs as we say, and in an emergency, one egg can take care of it for a day. The last time I was in the ancient ruins of Mount Tai, the longest time was twenty-three hours before I ate something. But this time it's better, there are ham sausages, and now there are eggs, so I can fill my stomach in the process of running.
We rejected Camp Commander Zhao's suggestion to send someone to go with us, a few of us have some experience in this ancient tomb, it would have been very difficult to take care of those four newcomers, and a few more newcomers would not cost lives. Took care of us tired,. Tired of taking care of us. No one wants to do thankless work.
Just approaching the entrance of the cave, Li Hua and Zhang Qian both had solemn faces. I asked curiously, "What's wrong?" Li Hua said: "It's so heavy. These are no ordinary fogs. "That's right." Zhang Qian received: "These are ghostly mists, which can be said to emanate from hell. ”
Listening to their words, Lu Liang muttered, "Why do I feel like I'm reading a fairy tale novel?" Even hell came out. Is there still a land judgment, Hades? Gao Ping slapped him in the back: "What nonsense? Lu Liang glanced at him and stopped.
"Let's go down and talk about it, don't delay the time on it, the burning time of the torches is limited, although I brought three torches, I don't know if they are enough." I looked at the crowd and it didn't make sense to discuss it here. Since you have to go down, what are you going to rub into?
Slowly descending into the cave, the fog became thicker and thicker, and even the torches could not shine far. I took out the flashlight, and the light was swallowed up by the fog less than two meters away. I took out the compass and looked at the direction, and found that the compass was broken, and the pointer inside didn't move. When they saw this, they also took out their compasses one after another, but the result was the same. Looking at such an effect, everyone's hearts trembled, if they got lost inside, I am afraid they would have to explain inside.
Yu Tiangang looked at everyone: "Or, let's go in one direction, when will we go to the edge and walk along the wall?" We nodded, and that was the way to go. I looked around: "Why don't we extinguish some of the torches, which will also buy us some more time, how about two people use one?" ”
Everyone nodded, knowing that they didn't know how long they would stay down there, and they didn't know how wide the fog was, and it would be good to save a little. There are torches and we don't wear gas masks, and if these are really ghostly fogs, wearing gas masks is useless. Yu Tiangang and Ji Hongming used the same torch, and they should walk in one direction first. We hurriedly followed. Shao Hua's uncle and nephew walked last, and now they are in an awkward position. The compass didn't work, and they found that they didn't have any use for it.
