Volume 2 Xia He Chapter 79 Hu Jiachong (2)
I don't know how long later, when I opened my eyes, the first thing that caught my eye was a very irregular hole in the top of my head, and I was lying on the ground. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info is covered in a layer of dirt. I didn't know where I was, and I was stunned for a moment before I remembered what had happened: I had fallen from the hall, and now I was buried in a cave in the collapsed ground.
I struggled to sit up, but my head moved, and I felt a tingling pain in the back of my head, my head was dizzy, and my face was hot as if something was crawling. I was terrified, endured the pain, broke out of the dirt, first reached out on my face and touched it, and grabbed a handful of ants, this time I screamed, and sat up desperately, a pair of dirty mud hands smeared on the face and head for a while, with the fall of the dirt and gravel covering the body, thousands of small ants fell down one after another.
Ants are the common kind of small black ants, which can be seen everywhere in front of and behind the house, coming and going in swarms, and they are busy every day. They generally don't bite, and they only have a slight itch and redness when they bite, which is not a big deal, but it makes people panic.
After a while, after cleaning up his head and face, he took off his shirt and shook for a while, and he got rid of them before he stood up in a panic and jumped to the side. I was so frightened that I didn't bother to see where they were going as they lined up in a thick black line and walked through the dirt and rubble, and I reached out and carefully touched the sore spot on the back of my head, and my hand was wet, and when I looked at my palm, it was stained with bright red. Thinking of the great pain before the coma and the current situation, it should be that he hit his head somewhere when he fell, and the injury was not light. It is estimated that it was the smell of blood that attracted the little ants. It's good to be this kind of little black ant, if it's the kind of big mountain ant, then it's really going to be a big sin.
I stretched out my hand and pressed on the sore spot, I felt that there was no more bleeding, and I relaxed a little, and then looked at my body and hands and feet, only a few small wounds and redness and swelling, which was fine.
After a while, I was relieved. There wasn't much dirt on his body, he wasn't buried alive, and he wasn't too badly injured. The coma is just a bunch of ordinary little ants, if it is a poisonous snake, poisonous scorpion, poisonous centipede or the like, it will be miserable, and if you die here, the family may not even be able to find the body.
The pain in the back of my head reminded me, and I quickly reached out and touched the waistband of my pants, and I was even more glad that the bulging things were still there.
There are a few things that I don't leave with me, especially talismans and wound medicine. The talisman was drawn by myself in case of emergency, and the wound medicine was given to me by Uncle Liang for self-defense. It was his own personal belonging, and I saw him pull it out of the pocket of his underwear and give it to me. Uncle Liang told me at the time that this wound medicine is extremely difficult to prepare, very precious, but also very effective, for knife wounds red mouth can stop bleeding and pain, guaiac muscle, internal and external use, has the miraculous effect of reviving the dead, is a life-saving medicine, must be carried close to the body, properly kept. For this purpose, I deliberately sewed a small cloth pocket and tied it close to the waistband of my trousers.
I took off the small cloth bag, opened it and took out a small oil cloth bag, opened the oil cloth bag, and there were two thumb-sized vials inside, and when I opened the bottle cap, I immediately smelled a faint medicinal fragrance. I poured a little external use into my hand, groped for the wound on the back of my head, and a cool breath went straight to my brain, and the dizziness disappeared immediately. Overjoyed, I poured out a pill the size of a soybean from the vial and threw it into my mouth, swallowed it with saliva, and rested against the cave wall.
That's when I took a serious look.
It wasn't a cavern, just a gourd-shaped cellar, but it was now crumbling. Looking at the dirt and rockfalls, I wondered if there was anything buried underneath.
This kind of cellar is very common in our mountainous areas, we call it cellar eye, every family has it, and it is used to store sweet potatoes for the winter. The stored sweet potatoes are not only the seeds of the next spring, but also the ration of the winter and spring. It's just that most people in our village dig cellars in the wild, and not many dig in the house.
Originally, this kind of cellar is not big, the cellar mouth is three feet square, or square or round, the bottom of the cellar to the mouth of the cellar is not high, it is estimated that it is one zhang deep, the cellar begins to become larger from the neck down, and the diameter is more than five or six feet when it reaches the bottom of the cellar, and it is enough to store a dozen loads of sweet potatoes in general.
At present, this cellar is a little big, due to the collapse, the cellar mouth is gone, leaving a broken irregular mouth, the cellar mouth is not easy to estimate, but the bottom of the cellar is relatively large, the diameter is more than one zhang, the height is also about five or six zhang, almost the size of a house, it is estimated that at least thirty or fifty quintals of sweet potatoes can be stored, such a large cellar, I still see it for the first time.
Now is not the time to study the cellar, and I threw it away as soon as I thought about it. Sitting on the damp mud floor, looking at the rafters and green tiles overhead, all the details of what happened before the coma were replayed in my head.
I felt very clear at this time, and carefully recalled the whole process of going up the mountain with the fat man to falling into the bottom of the cellar and being buried, and found that my usual keen sense seemed to have failed, especially after getting lost in the dense forest, it was unusually dull, and then it was taken advantage of by the demon fox, and it was led here step by step, so that now I am injured and imprisoned.
I retracted my thoughts, and the blame and regret were to no avail, and the main thing for now was to get out of the bottom of the cellar.
Now it's daylight outside, but below you can't see the outside, you can't see the sky, you don't know the hour, you can't tell the difference between morning and afternoon. I don't know how long I've been in a coma since I was injured, but hopefully everything happened last night, and I'll go down the mountain now and call someone to find the fat man, maybe the matter won't be too big; In case I slept for a day or two like the first two times, I am afraid that things have already made a big fuss-—— the two big living people who are plain are gone, and it is strange that Aunt Hu, a drunkard girl, is not in a hurry to die.
Uncle Liang's medicine was really magical, and when I thought about it for a moment, the power of the medicine melted, and I no longer felt pain, and I was refreshed and energetic.
I looked at it for a while, although the collapsed cellar was more than a zhang deep, but because of the accumulation of collapsed soil and rocks, the direction near the door had been filled in a lot, and the original inward-sloping and not climbable cellar wall had now become a slightly outward inclined ridge, and it seemed that although it was still unusually steep, the height was only a mile, and there were two stones protruding, as long as it was stable and not loose, it was completely possible to climb out with strength.
I moved my hands and feet a little, took a deep breath, looked at the protruding stone that was about two feet above my head, squatted up and jumped up, grabbed the stone with my right hand and pulled it down hard, and then let go and fell back to the same place.
This kind of testing is important. If the stone is loose and climbs rashly, it will definitely fall off, and nine times out of ten it will hurt itself, and if it causes a collapse, it is possible to be buried alive.
Jumping up again, grasping the edge of the stone with both hands, as soon as he struggled, a pull-up, and he went up very easily.
The rocks didn't stick out of the ridge much, just enough for me to stand on. But that was enough, and I straightened myself against the ridge, and by this time I was only six or seven feet above the ground, and I could already see the shrine in the hall, and by the brightness of the light, I was sure that it was a sunny day.
I withdrew my gaze and looked at the chest-high second protruding stone at my side, as long as it was firm and easy to get out.
I still didn't dare to be careless, so I reached out and wiped the dirt from the convex stone, and shook it a few times, although it was a little loose, it seemed that it should be no problem to support me to go up. Actually, I didn't have a choice, on the steep landslide ridge, this stone was my only hope.
I immediately made a decision, holding on to the ridge with my hands, ignoring the gravel loosening that would be driven to fall, stepping on the stone with my left foot, kicking hard with my right foot, and my body went up to the rock, and at the same time my whole body threw myself on the ridge, and climbed the house with both hands, and climbed up to the ground with rolling belts, and took a few steps back out of the house, and sat on the steps outside the house.
God forbid, finally out of trouble. I gasped for a few breaths. At this moment, the ground trembled, the house began to tilt, the tiles on the battered roof fell down, and I jumped from the steps to the open space in the courtyard, only to hear a bang, and the hall collapsed, and the houses on both sides also collapsed. The walls were falling and the dust was flying, and I didn't dare to stay, so I ran out of the courtyard door in a few steps.
After a while, when the dust settled, I was shocked, and I was glad that I had a big life and picked up another life. If this is a moment too late, can it still come out?
