Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Dead City of the Desert (Part II)
I threw one end of the rope to Xiyang, and he grabbed it with one hand and quickly tied a knot on his wrist, how he did it, I still don't know, and this has become the only unsolved mystery in this part of my life.
Generally speaking, people who are stuck in quicksand or swamps, as long as someone is next to them, with the help of external force, they will not die, so I am very confident that I can pull Xiyang up, but the fact slapped me again.
With a muffled sound, Xiyang also disappeared in front of me, but he was different from Jiang Yuan's disappearance, and he disappeared with those yellow sands.
The violent shaking lasted for more than a minute, and in this minute, I lay motionless on the ground, my mind was blank, and I was quietly holding the climbing rope in my hand, but strangely, there was no gravity induction from the other end of the climbing rope, which showed that Xiyang and the climbing rope had been separated.
In front of my eyes, there was a big pit, yes, a pit, at least a little bigger than a well, but it was also bottomless.
"Xiyang." I yelled into the pit.
The darkness in the pit swallowed my voice, my climbing rope still did not move, I slowly withdrew the climbing rope, the dead knot at the end of the rope was still there, which showed that the rope was not untied by Xiyang himself, but suddenly fell off due to some external force.
I'm starting to worry, if history doesn't change, then neither of them will die, but I'm different, I'm Guan Yue now, this Guan Yue disappeared for no reason six years ago, whether he died or what, no one knows, although Baiyun They all said that Ah Guan had been in contact with them in the past six years, and even Xihai was planned by Ah Guan behind his back, notifying them to meet and so on. But the last thing they saw was me, and I didn't see a stranger on the other side of the West Sea.
I used to suspect that I was Guan Yue under the guidance of Bai Yun, but then I found out that I couldn't, because I kept remembering what happened in the past during this time, especially when I was a child. The blank memories of my childhood are constantly recovering, so I'm pretty sure that I'm not Guan Yue, so where is the real Guan Yue? ”
I touched my face, although it was a little similar to me, but a clear-eyed person could still tell that Guan Yue and I were two kinds of people at all, and his innate temperament was something that I Xiao Fang did not have. Even if he becomes him now, hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of clothes are worn on his body, and he can't get rid of the essence of small traders, so
"Xiyang." I kept shouting, this time I was for myself, because I was the only one and I would definitely die here.
"Xiyang." The voice was a little torn, and I hadn't drunk water for a long time. My lips are terribly dry.
The darkness inside the pit was like another world, and I sat on the sidelines. Suddenly thought of a question, Xiyang just said that this is a desert dead city, but on the surface of this sand layer, not to mention a city, even a city brick, I haven't seen it, if Xiyang is not talking nonsense, then. This dead city should be under the yellow sand.
I grabbed a handful of yellow sand and threw it down, but nothing happened.
I sat on the edge of the pit for three or four minutes, and then I found a coin, and I don't know why there was a one-dollar coin in my suit, with words on one side. On one side are flowers.
"Word, I'll jump down, flower, I'll go in by myself." I looked at the last rays of the sunset on the horizon and muttered to myself.
Looking at the coin in the middle of his palm, he suddenly smiled, and said in his heart when did I look like a woman's mother-in-law, and put the coin back in his pocket, "Forget it, whether it is dead or alive is also doomed, in case there is a bottomless abyss below me, I will only see my ancestors in advance." ”
Jumping up, falling vertically with my eyes closed, I finally experienced the feeling of jumping off the building, when my chest was suffocated and I was about to be unable to hold on, I felt a hand suddenly grabbed my arm, slowing down the momentum of my fall, but even so, I still fell clearly, the whole person lay on the ground, and the bones of the whole body were painful.
Lying on the ground for a long time did not get up, it took a while to slowly get up, with the help of the faint firelight, I saw that the opposite sitting was Xiyang, his hand was bent at 90 degrees, this angle felt awkward, I asked him what was going on, he looked at his wrist very indifferently, and said lightly that it was broken.
I suddenly thought of the dead knot of the climbing rope, and it turned out to be like this.
No more words, got up and checked the backpack, fortunately, the things are still there, I took out a new micro flashlight, replaced the battery and found that the flashlight actually worked.
'Xiyang, look. ”
Xiyang took the flashlight and looked at it, a trace of doubt flashed on his face, he looked at his flashlight, fiddled with it, and still couldn't use it.
"Don't get it, it's definitely broken." I said.
Xiyang shook his head and said, "Impossible, I didn't fall down." ”
"What? You didn't fall, so how did you get down? I asked.
Xiyang looked up, the sky outside was already gray, and it seemed that within half an hour, waking up would appear.
"I came down with no gravity." He said very seriously.
I smiled, "What gravity, what about the moon at that time, okay, I'll rest assured if you're okay, let's go, let's go find Yuan'er." ”
Xiyang was stunned for a moment, "Are you familiar with him?" ”
I suddenly realized that I had just said the wrong thing, and with a uh-huh, I explained, "Not familiar." ”
Xiyang looked at me suspiciously and said, "Then why do you call him that, don't you think, you are very different from him?" ”
I said in my heart, he is my younger brother, of course I treat him differently, but now it is six years ago, I call him Yuan'er like this, in the eyes of outsiders, it is indeed a little strange, after all, his current identity is not ordinary.
After thinking about it, he said, "He's still a child, look at him, he is a head shorter than us, besides, let me use an honorific title for a teenager, Lao Tzu doesn't do it." ”
Xiyang glanced at me with a complicated expression, and said as he walked: "Bai Yun often says that you are too conformist, rigid and stiff, and give people a very cold feeling, I used to think so, except for us, you are indifferent to anyone, including the old man, but in the past two days, I found that you are not like what we see, there seems to be another person hidden in your body." ”
I didn't listen to the pile in front of him at all, but his last sentence made me chuckle in my heart, what did my heart say that there was another person hidden, could it be that the ruthless and high-end atmosphere was Guan Yue, and the little citizen who was covered in copper smell and mixed in the market all day long was me Xiao Fang?
When this thought flashed through my thoughts, I laughed myself, and said in my heart that I really thought I was the male version of Zixia Fairy, one person during the day and another person at night.
I smiled and said, "What is hiding another person, I just think that Jiang Yuan's kid is in line with my eyes, just like you and Bai Yun, didn't you say it just now, I'm not indifferent to everyone, right?" ”
Xiyang blinked his eyes, he wanted to say something but didn't say it, probably thinking that what I said made sense, but a minute later, he suddenly said, "If one day, you are destined to disappear, what kind of identity will you reappear in the eyes of the world?" ”
Now, my heart is not just a chuckle, but a cardiac arrest, my heart said my mother, why is every sentence of what the hell Xiyang said seem to be aimed at me, could it be that he knows something? But even if he knew, would he believe it? Who would believe that there is really a crossing in this world, besides, is this a crossing of mine? (To be continued.) )
