Chapter 14 Gifts of Kindness
Wei Yi fell all the way, his hands constantly clawing, hoping to catch something so that he could slow down his rapidly descending body. But this time, there was nothing left to grasp in mid-air. The vines that I had seen hanging in mid-air before, this time, there was no trace at all.
"It's a dead end." Wei Yi howled miserably, and involuntarily had such a thought.
There was a "poof", and just when he thought he was certain to die this time, his body slammed into the water. "Saved! It's amazing. The moment he smashed into the water, the thought flashed through his mind with joy. But the huge falling force pulled him down dozens of meters before it completely dissipated.
The water here is not cold, but rather lukewarm. Wei Yi tried his best to hold his breath, used his hands and feet together, and desperately went upstream. After a few large mouthfuls of water, he struggled to surface.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough..." Wei Yi choked on the water and coughed, floating on the surface of the water and gulping in the air. It took a long time to get over.
Although the light here is very dim, you can still make out the surroundings clearly. Wei Yi looked around for a moment, and swam hurriedly towards the shore in the distance.
When he reached the shore, he climbed up with his hands and feet, and then he found that his whole body was sore, weak, and he was not tired. He threw himself on the ground, feeling the solid earth beneath him, and he felt a little reassured in his heart.
"Whew! It's terrible. Wei Yi rested for a while, supported the ground with his hands, and slowly stood up from the ground. He straightened his hair and began to look around.
I don't know where I am now. He looked up at the extremely deep passage above his head. The height is not topped. Obviously, it is not realistic to climb up as before. If it falls down again and one accidentally doesn't fall into the water, then it's really too dead to die anymore.
"What now?" He pondered for a moment, then decided that he might as well check the existing equipment first. He quickly unfastened his backpack and took out the camping lights, only to find that he couldn't turn them on.
"It's too bad I can't see anything now." He had to dispel the idea of counting his belongings first, reluctantly put away the camping lamp, took out some dry food, and ate a few bites at random.
As he looked around, wondering how to get out of this place. The distant walls gradually glowed. The dim world slowly began to brighten.
Wei Yi was shocked, hurriedly put away his things, and plunged into the lake next to him. He lurked underwater, put his ear to the rocks on the shore, and listened silently to the movement on the shore.
It was quiet outside, but he heard other voices from the rock. A vigorous and powerful beating sound, like the sound of his own heartbeat, extremely powerful.
One minute, two minutes, Wei Yi really couldn't continue to hide. He looked at the world outside that was getting brighter and brighter, gritted his teeth, and floated up. He poked his head out, took a gentle breath of fresh air with great care, and then quietly dived again.
After trying back and forth a few times, he found that there was no movement outside except that it had become extremely bright.
"It's not an option to keep going like this. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so simply go up and take a look. Wei Yi secretly made up his mind in his heart. When he ascended again, he simply lay on the shore and cautiously poked his head up.
The world beyond the water is already a different landscape. The light had become so bright that it was full of strangely shaped rocks and curving walls. And this light actually came from those walls. A faint light that presents a colorful and exotic color. Red, yellow, blue, green, red, orange, purple, almost every color is included.
"What a strange place." Wei Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and after carefully observing for a while, he hurried to climb up from the water after making sure that everything was safe. But suddenly he noticed that there was something strange around him, as if something kept touching him again and again.
He was frightened, and hurriedly climbed ashore with his hands and feet. When he reached the shore, he looked into the water again and was surprised to find that there were many live fish in the water.
The fish were no more than a slap in size, with slightly slender bodies and dark bodies. If it's not well lit, it's really impossible to find at all. Wei Yi tried to throw the leftover biscuit scraps into the water, and soon attracted a large number of small fish to compete for the food.
These fish didn't seem to be afraid of people, and after eating those cookie scraps, they didn't disperse, but gathered in the lake in front of Wei Yi's eyes, and looked at him pitifully.
The corners of Wei Yi's mouth twitched, and he helplessly broke the few remaining packets of biscuits into powder and spilled them all. The fish swarmed up and rushed to eat. It didn't take a moment to swallow the cookie crumbs.
After they were full, they all shouted at Wei Yi a few times, and then dispersed. Only one large fish, which was significantly larger than the other small fish, did not leave immediately. It poked its head out of the water and looked at Wei Yi carefully for a long time. It looked like a curious child.
Wei Yi looked at this little dot and thought that it was not full yet, so he said to it with a wry smile: "It's really gone, the bag I gave you just now is the last one." I'm going to have to go hungry for the next meal. ”
But the fish seemed to understand what he meant, and squawked twice, turned his head and swam away. Wei Yi shook his head helplessly, smiled self-deprecatingly, and sat on the ground staring blankly at the extremely open lake in front of him, stunned.
With a moment of kindness, he squandered what little dry food he had left. I'm hungry now. Wei Yi looked at the calm lake, and his thoughts were flying. Many people appeared in front of his eyes, and many things kept flashing like movie shots.
After a long time, he put aside all the distractions in his heart and got up to leave. At this moment, the fish suddenly swam out of the lake again. They flocked to Wei Yi like a tidal wave.
At first, Wei Yi thought that these fish were coming to eat again, but when he was about to explain something, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. I saw those fish, carrying something in small groups, swimming towards him quickly.
When the little fish swam closer, he realized that they were carrying a fruit that he had never seen before. The fruit was oval-shaped, about a finger's width wide, pale blue in color, and looked extremely tender and bright.
The little fish swam to the shore, chirped a few times, and began to throw the fruits from the water to Wei Yi in an orderly manner. Wei Yu hurriedly took a look, and quickly reached out to take the fruit and put it on the ground on the side. I took another one and put it on the ground again.
But when he received the third one, the fish no longer threw them, but all shouted anxiously at Wei Yi. Wei Yi didn't know why, and kept asking, "What's wrong?" Didn't I catch them all? Isn't this for me? ”
Seeing that the fish were getting more and more anxious, Wei Yi had no choice but to pick up the fruits and throw them back. As soon as he bent down and picked it up, the fish stopped calling again.
"Okay, okay, just give it back to you, what a bunch of strange fish." Wei Yi raised his hand to throw the fruit back. At this moment, the largest fish, screamed a few times, and jumped up from the lake.
It flew straight towards Wei Yi. Wei Yi hurriedly dropped the fruit and hurriedly took the fish. He held the fish in a hurry, and his mouth couldn't stop counting: "You are crazy, don't you know, the fish will die if they leave the water?" What is it that drives you crazy like this? Where did this fruit come from? ”
In his panic, he didn't care that the fish in his arms kept screaming desperately at him. He hurried to the edge of the lake and put the big fish back into the water. But as soon as the fish got into the water, it jumped out again. Wei Yi had to put it back again.
And so on and so forth. No matter how stupid Wei Wei is, he knows what message this fish is trying to convey to him. When he caught the fish again, he held it up, looked at it seriously, and asked, "What do you want to tell me, little one?" ”
The fish cried at him a few times, then turned its head and cried at the fruit on the ground. Wei Yi bent down to pick up a fruit and asked, "You mean this thing?" ”
The fish barked happily at him. Wei Yi looked at the fruit suspiciously for a moment, still feeling unclear.
The fish suddenly became a little irritable and kept calling at Wei Yi. Wei Yi hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, you keep calling me that, I don't understand it." Well, I'll say a word, if you agree, call once, if you don't, call twice, okay? ”
The fish snorted very obediently. Wei Yi was happy in his heart, and he really loved this little thing full of spirituality.
"You gave me this in return for giving me because I gave you cookies to eat, didn't you?"
"Huh"
"It's for me, isn't it?"
"Huh"
"Shall I put it away?"
"Boo"
"Can't put it away? Does that mean I'm going to eat it now? ”
"Huh"
"Eat now?"
"Huh"
"But this is too much, you have carried so much, I can't eat it all at once, and besides, I'm not hungry now."
"Boo, boo, boo"
The little fish suddenly became angry and screamed vigorously. Wei Yi hurriedly whispered softly: "Okay, okay, I'll just eat." You're going to go back to the water."
He put the little fish back in the water, picked up a fruit, wiped it on his clothes, threw it in his mouth and chewed it. "Whoa, whoa. Well, delicious. Wei Yi only ate one and felt that this fruit was unusual.
The fruit is sweet and delicious, and melts in your mouth. As soon as the juice was swallowed by Wei Mi, there was immediately bursts of warmth from his stomach, which began to disperse from his stomach to his whole body. Wei Yi only felt an indescribable sense of comfort all over his body, which was refreshing and transparent.
Moreover, after eating this fruit, he felt as if something was slowly emerging from his body. He hurriedly took off his shirt and took a look. I saw a slender vine wriggling out from under the epidermis of his arm, and from time to time it broke through his epidermis and was about to emerge. But it was as if something had stuck to it so firmly that it had repeatedly failed to return.
"This?" Wei Yi instantly felt frightened, and he reached out to pull the vine out, but the thing was hidden under his skin, and there was nothing he could do. Moreover, every time I pull it, it will bring a sharp pain that pierces the heart.
"Boom, boom." Xiao Budian screamed desperately at Wei Yu in the water. A few fruits were tossed by the fish. Wei Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and understood a little in his heart. The fish were clearly trying to save him. But can these few fruits really have an effect? It's under his skin.
But he thought about it, and now even if he didn't get rid of the parasitic vines on his body, he would have no food to eat. Hengzhu is a death, he simply turned his heart horizontally, picked up a fruit and continued to eat it: "No matter, the dead horse should be treated as a live horse doctor." Eat your fill first. ”
He ate one and another, and the fish in the water kept throwing the fruit onto the shore. At first, he hurriedly continued, for fear of breaking it, but later he found that even if it fell to the ground, the fruit was not damaged, so he was relieved.
He ate one after another, until he couldn't eat anymore, and the little fish let him go. But the fish never left, never left the shore, but they no longer threw fruit on it.
After a while, Wei Yi only felt that his whole body was burning and aching, and the pain made him roll on the ground. But after a while, gradually, the pain disappeared. Instead, there is an indescribable feeling of comfort.
He lay on the ground and gasped for a while, then hurriedly lifted his clothes and took a closer look. The vine I saw earlier is gone. He touched the many tiny scars on his hand and felt them for a while. Nothing, nothing strange.
"It really works." He sat down on the ground and let out a long breath. It's really a time to get out of the ghost gate. If it weren't for the momentary kindness, I am afraid that I would have become the nourishment of that vine plant.
He looked at the many fruits scattered on the ground, and for a moment he had mixed feelings. He thanked the fish for not leaving. Although the fish didn't necessarily understand what he said, his gratitude really needed to be vented.
"I had to leave. We'll have a date later. Wei Yi arched his hand at the fish and got up to leave. As soon as he left, the fish disagreed and yelled at him. Wei Yi was really confused now.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else wrong? He thought that there was something wrong with him, so he hurriedly checked it carefully, but found nothing suspicious. He was wondering to himself, he was caught off guard, he felt some movement behind him, and hurriedly turned around to look, but he was suddenly shocked.
I saw that the walls behind me began to gradually glow with colorful glass light, and the light became more and more intense and dazzling. And the whole wall began to move regularly.
And those fish were also screaming more and more eagerly towards Wei Yi at this time. Wei Yi knew that something was wrong, so without saying a word, he picked up his things and plunged into the lake.
He held his breath and stayed quietly in the water. The fish beside him swam happily around him, so happy. The small fish with a larger body swam to Wei Mi's side, grabbed Wei Mi's clothes, and pulled it down. Wei Yi held his breath so hard that he was about to float up and change his breath, but he was suddenly dragged down by a large group of fish with his clothes in his mouth.
He was really shocked. If nothing else, he can't breathe underwater. He was in such a hurry that he couldn't hold it back any longer, and a big gulp of lake water poured into his mouth. Wei Yi was really crying and laughing now. He had just walked through the ghost gate, and he didn't fall to his death, but he was going to be drowned, or he was dragged and drowned by a group of friendly fish, and I am afraid that there is no one in the world who can be more tragic than him.
