Chapter 80 Elevated Terrain
In retrospect, I didn't know anyone involved in this mission for more than a few months. Of course, except for Chen Zaihai, our previous relationship was a little better than that of wine and meat friends. If I talk about real friendship, revolutionary friendship, I will definitely put a question mark on myself before this mission. It can be said that later, the iron relationship between me and Talia at the beginning, Lin Yiru, Ah Hui, and Yutong after that is honed in all kinds of critical moments.
The so-called life and death together, and weal and woe together, can become brothers and friends. Talia aside, I really think of her as a lifelong friend. My feelings for the Lin sisters are a little painless, for Lin Yiru I dare not say that that kind of feeling is love, we didn't know what romance was at that time, and there would be no short-lived things, I was simply attracted by her mystery at first, and then slowly became acquainted.
I really like her, I think it's because I discovered her human part, for Yutong and Ah Hui, and occasionally for me, she will unconsciously show some feelings. This contrast between before and after made me fall in love with her completely, and if it weren't for that, she would have been a kaolin flower for me forever.
As for Yutong, it may be because I like Lin Yiru's relationship. No matter how much she teased me, teased me, and turned against me. I don't really hate her, this little ghost is like my sister in the whole story, lively and cute, and people unconsciously want to protect her.
Although in the end, I found out that the Lin sisters were much more deeply related to the whole incident than I thought, and the involvement of various forces really made me more and more powerless, but until the end, I tried to protect them. I think Ah Hui thinks the same way as me.
When I write this, I have to mention this, and after I retire, I think back to the past, those old friends and comrades-in-arms who are still alive and have died, and I realize that I have the greatest happiness in my life, and I have these memories. The feelings of those of us when we were young, whether it was friendship or love, whether it blossomed or not, they were our best memories at that time.
There are many times when I feel that no matter how powerful I was when I was young, there was only so much I could do when I was old to find a narrow house, type, and reminisce about life. There were many insistences back then, and many of them were difficult to give up, but now that I look back, it is actually easy to let go.
After retiring, Chen Zihai and I found a house in Beijing, and the two families have been living together as neighbors until now. We always like to tell our grandchildren stories about my youth, but of course it doesn't include this. Before I started writing this time, we were all bent on taking this past into the grave.
Even so, those experiences are legendary to these young children growing up in the new century, especially the eldest granddaughters of our two families, who were simply crazy and pestered us two old things to tell stories almost every day when they were children. The one in my family is very quiet, and I have liked to read since I was a child, but I know much more than children of the same age. As for the one in Chen Zaihai's family, he is very active and perfectly inherits the tradition of a military family.
In the end, my granddaughter, who dragged me to the movies, went abroad to develop and studied geology, which made me sigh at the cycle of cause and effect in the world. And Chen Zaihai's granddaughter Chen Xue went to a southern city to work as a criminal policeman, and recently watched the news that the city's security seems to have become very chaotic, and Bacheng is also very worried.
The reason why I want to say such a long paragraph here is because it is very important, and we are all caught in a huge vortex that we can't extricate ourselves from, and many things are involuntarily. And among the many compulsions, the only thing that can be swayed by our own emotions is our own feelings. Otherwise, the story I wrote about would be a completely tragic story.
Yes, it is not even a tragedy, it is just a twisted collection of miserable lives, a terrifying darkness without any salvation or hope.
To make a long story short, this is the time to go back to the story of the three of us going up the volcanic stone steps. It's been a long time since we decided, but luckily, the temperature is getting higher and the clothes are drying out. Sure enough, my previous idea was correct, this is a geological cave composed of volcanic structures and water erosion, and there must be a difference in temperature.
It's also worth noting that I clearly feel that the terrain is getting higher and higher. Not long ago, we could see the underground river below through the miner's lamp, but now it was completely lost in darkness, and the rumbling sound of the water had become ermear.
We had to stop and discuss what to do next. This elevation was really unexpected for us. We have always intended to stay away from this underground river, so that we will not get lost and we will not have to worry about fresh water. The engineer deduced that there must have been a large Japanese building in front of it, but according to this, it was believed that even eighty percent of it was built on a very high ground, far from the underground river.
The temperature has risen, and our stiff brains have become active. We began to think seriously about the way forward. There are only two of them, lower your height and get back to the underground river. Or continue down the stone steps for other clues.
Chen Zaihai analyzed that there may be buildings abandoned by the Japanese in front of the two roads, and the water flow here is so large that the goblin Japanese will definitely not turn a blind eye, and there will be a large hydropower station in the upstream area. Given what we've found in that black signal tower, the logbook, this place might be crazy about some jaw-dropping, production-type complex, and those things might be up there.
"We'd better be mentally prepared and don't panic if anything comes up in front of us. This place is beyond our common sense. He reminded us. Although we are still the first task, don't forget your own life, if you lose it, you won't be able to complete any mission. ”
I feel that he deliberately said this to the engineer, and he is really still a little worried about these dead brains. The two of us nodded yes, and the warrior seemed honest and hoped he wouldn't do anything stupid when the time came. Although Nie Chuanhui survived by luck, it may not be possible to change someone else.
"Anyway, it's the temperature that matters. We've finally warmed up, and then rashly approaching the underground river, it's no joke to start a burn. I proposed. Now that we are short of medicines, if anyone has a fever and can't walk, it will definitely be a huge burden. ”
I think this mainly because I don't want to get any closer to that underground river. In just a few hours, I almost died in that place several times, and to be honest, we were still scared of the underground river. Another thing I didn't tell them was that I sank several times when we were whirling in the water.
At that time, by the light of Chen Zaihai's mining lamp, I found that the water here looked black and large, and that was only because the light was not enough, in fact, they were very clear, and I could see the bottom of the water without much effort. This underground river is only about ten meters deep, which is not as deep as we thought.
But what I want to focus on is not the water itself, but the things in it. I've definitely seen it more than once, and there's definitely more than just rocks and sand under the water! There's a lot of stuff in there! It was so densely spread that my scalp was about to explode.
Even though I couldn't see what they were because of the light, I instinctively wanted to avoid them. I don't know if those things were washed down by the river or sunk by the Japanese, but I felt very uncomfortable when I saw them, and each one was as big as a boxy person, and it looked like a coffin. Now that I think about it, I really think that there are actually dead people in there, and the Japanese are absolutely crazy.
But at that time, I didn't have so many scruples, the raging river brought me to the side, and I was almost exhausted just to keep myself floating on the water, not to mention having to keep up with Chen Zaihai. This greater sense of crisis made me forget about what was underwater for a while. But now that it's safe, I'm reminded of those things again, and definitely don't approach them. That's all I have in mind.
The reason I didn't tell them was because neither of them seemed to notice the stuff. If I say it, I will either increase panic, or I will be considered cowardly and mistaken and will not have any real effect. So I found another reason not to approach the river.
"Old Sue. What's wrong with you, your face is a little strange? "But Chen Zaihai seems to have discovered my anomaly." There is some truth to what you say, but what are you doing now? You can't really have a fever, right? ”
But in the end, he was mistaken, and the moment he spoke, my whole body tightened, and I thought he was going to say that he actually saw the things under the water. I know Chen Zaihai very well, and if there is such a thing, he will definitely go back to the water's edge to find out if he is curious.
The box-like thing emitted a very strange aura that I could feel when I was in the water, an ominous, heterogeneous presence. They give me the feeling that I don't belong in this world at all, a feeling that I've wanted to have existed for a long time ago
I thought about it for a long time along the way and finally came to a conclusion. I did feel this way, in the place where we first lived, which had been sealed off a long time ago, the meteorological research institute of the National Government
