Chapter 39: Wang Tiejun's Ideals
This is not the world I know, and I'm going crazy! The candle torch burst into flames after I shouted. I was so frightened that I threw it out, and I was defenseless, and I was so frightened by such a sudden fire that my soul was almost lost, and I sat on the ground.
After looking at it for a long time, the candle was indeed constantly burning, bursting with the light of hope.
What the hell is this place? The river can come back to life, can I shout what I hope to the space to make my wish come true?
Can't tell whether you are happy or sad in your heart? With apprehension, I sat on the ground, clenched my fists like an oath to join the party, and shouted to the sky: I want to roast chicken, I want to roast duck, I want to roast steak!
After a while, I was full of hope that a few large pieces of meat would fall from the sky and make me eat them raw, but the spell did not work, and nothing fell. I slapped myself hard, you are crazy, what do you think of good things! I looked at the burning candle in the distance, and the jumping flames tore a hole in the darkness around me, and my shadow stretched out for a long time under the candlelight.
What kind of joke did the gods play on me, I lit the candle for some reason, although I didn't eat food, but it looked very good, at least I had the light, so I wouldn't be lost.
I stood up, picked up the candle torch, and walked towards the riverbank, and by this little light, I might be able to find the body of the old black by reading > novel xstxt.
Sure enough, as I thought, there was a layer of white termites attached to the bank of the river, these termites were dead and alive, they were huddled together, and they were firmly connected with the river bank, forming a white embankment, even if the river continued to wash them, they were not shaken for half a minute. I really don't understand what these termites are doing. There isn't even a single insect here, so what do they eat?
Loneliness and despair filled my heart again, holding a candle and looking at the sky, if only I could fly, then I wouldn't have to stay in this terrifying supernatural world.
I was washed ashore by an undercurrent, this is the bend of the river, and the place where I came ashore was just a 90-degree corner, no wonder I didn't drown in the water, it turned out that the river turned and washed me up.
The river was presented to me in an arc-shaped face, and I was in a daze at its outer arc, and behind me was the cliff that Lao Hei had slipped down, and the bank of the inner arc river opposite was covered with water and could not see anything.
When I came back to my senses, I thought of Lao Hei again, and I felt a burst of loss in my heart, and now I can't find him, how can I live alone in this lonely space? Do you have to rely on eating termites every day?
I couldn't have looked for him with a candle, because I couldn't be sure if he had climbed the river opposite, or if he was now being swept downstream by the undercurrent, and I silently prayed in my heart that the river would come back to life, and that the old black would not die.
I only have one candle, and the other is in the hands of the old black, and it will not be long before such a blazing flame will be extinguished when the candle is burned out, and I will return to the darkness, and I will pick up a stone that is not too big, hold it in my hand, and shout to the sky, "God, give me strength!" Is it okay to light a fire? ”
I desperately hoped that this stone could burn, but unfortunately, I thought too much, and the stone was cold to the tentacles, and there was no reaction at all.
I threw the stone into the water, and the river gurgled without even a ripple, and was swept away by the violent current, and sure enough, the water was still turbulent. I scratched my scalp fiercely, looking desperately at the surface of the river, which was calm on the surface but actually dark and turbulent, I really had reached a desperate situation.
Since I got off this tomb, there have been so many problems, and it was difficult for Tang Seng to learn the scriptures back then, is it the same as now. No wonder the figure of Tang Seng appears on the murals of the tomb, is it to imply that this tomb is as difficult as the road for Tang Seng to learn scriptures? What is unknown in the white fog on the opposite riverbank? The river is more than 10 meters wide, and even if I jumped into the middle of the river, I could not escape the fate of being swept to the next river by the undercurrent.
At this time, a strange whining sound suddenly sounded in my ears, the sound went from far to near and got closer and closer, like a person crying in the middle of the night, very weird.
I frowned and stared at the water, for fear that a water ghost would suddenly come out of the water.
The strange cry grew louder and louder, as if at my feet, and my heart was beating so fast that I could barely hold the candle, and I couldn't help but retreat backwards, trying to avoid the river.
There are unexplained secrets in the river itself, and now there are such terrible cries, I hate to turn around and run, but I know that even if I run away from the river now, I will inevitably die, and if I stay here, I may still meet the old black who came to look for me, or the old black who was swept by the current.
Uh, old black, your uncle!
The old black wow, wow, was poked out of the water, the thing floated on the surface of the water and was pushed by the undercurrent to keep rolling into the distance, the whining cry was actually the sound of him gasping for air!
I was overjoyed, and rushed up to pull him up, but he was also wrapped in an undercurrent and pushed up the bank around the corner, and the river flowed so fast that it threw Lao Hei out of the water like a dead dog.
I chased after him, dragged Lao Hei up, and carried him away from the shore where the termites were disguised, and the goods must have been flooded, lying on my back, snorting, but fortunately, there was no danger to my life.
I arched my left leg and rolled him onto my lap, holding his mouth with my hand, fearing that there would be mud or stones blocking his airway, and at the same time pushing his stomach to help him drain the water out. Fortunately, his mouth was clean and there was no mud and sand, and he kept spitting water, and it took a while before he eased up and raised his hand to me.
I threw him on the ground, his limbs flat, his eyes confused, and he didn't speak.
I smiled and said to him, "What, I don't know my brother?" ”
He grinned, and was about to speak, when another mouthful of water spat out, coughing one after another.
I hurriedly helped him sit up: "Stop talking, rest first." ”
The old black eyes were red, with tears in his eyes, and he coughed violently: "Ahem, I'll go, cough, choke me to death!" Ahem, ahem. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, and finally picked up another dog's life." I laughed.
Lao Hei also laughed, and said in a loud voice: "Hehe, the name of your two dogs is really good, and the cheap Hades don't want it." ”
I slapped him on the back, and he squirted out a mouthful of water: "Little master, this is the name of a rich and noble child, if you don't die, you will have a blessed life, clean nonsense!" ”
Lao Hei smiled: "Then my name is Wang Tiejun, isn't it a god who can't be defeated." ”
I scoffed and said, "Cut, it's all soaked in water and rusted into iron slag, and you're still brave." “
Lao Hei looked at me with a suffocated face, and said, "You must be brave, do you know what I want to do now?" ”
I said, "What's the matter, dragging your wounded body and wanting to start a revolution and protect the common people?" You don't have to work so hard for the people day and night, my lord, take care of your health. ”
Lao Hei squinted his eyes and frowned: "My bag, my bag is still at the bonfire, and now I have rushed so far, how can I go back!" ”
I threw him directly to the ground, and I couldn't wait to step on it again: "When is it, still thinking about these things that don't have four or six!" ”
Lao Hei covered his head and sat up: "If you don't lose money, you can start over, what do you know!" ”
I held the candle in front of my face, grimaced, and said word by word: "Do you still want to live a little Heihei?" ”
Lao Hei pushed me away and said in surprise, "Where did you get the fire?" ”
"You just found out! Don't leak it, hurry up, give me that candle of yours, and it will be burned out in a while! ”
Lao Hei touched his body and spread his hands: "It's gone, it was washed away by the water, so I can only go back to find my satchel, and I still have two candles in my bag." ”
My eyes were about to pop out: "You...... You, pig become! I can't let you do the slightest bit of business! When I said that, I felt that it was wrong, and I really couldn't relieve my anger when I said this: "It's not something normal people can do once in a while!" “
Lao Hei smiled: "I didn't mean to, senior brother, what do you say now?" ”
I was deflated: "What else can I do, go back and find your bag." ”
Lao Hei patted me on the shoulder: "Don't be sad, I have a lot of little babies in my bag, it's very cool to wrap you." ”
I pushed his hand away and gave him a blank look: "This river is artificially built, look at the way the water is turbulent, I don't know what it is below, let's go downstream along the river bank, maybe we can find a way out, or...... Find this tomb's lair! ”
Lao Hei stood up: "Then what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry back to find the bag, and then kill it back, hurry up!" Move it! ”
I said angrily: "Let's go, let's go, go now, if you don't go, this candle will burn out!" ”
The old black couldn't wait to run back and drive in, I caught up with him with a candle, this thing just looked dead, and now it was alive and kicking.
I glanced at the strange river channel, and I wondered what kind of miraculous substance this water was. Since I climbed up from the water, my stomach is no longer hungry, my body is not empty, the scars from being bitten by termites are gone, and my whole body is full of strength. It is incredible that we have escaped death several times, and each time we have been resurrected in full state.
Look at Lao Hei again, this product is even more alive, even jumping, almost taking off!
As the saying goes, if a person has no ambition, he is not a person. Lao Hei's ideal is probably the treasure in this tomb, so what about me? What are my ambitions? Is it just to get out of this tomb? If that's all there is to it, why did I come in the first place, and now gold and silver treasures don't seem to have any temptation to me at all, and only to live is my goal. Thinking about it, I realized that I didn't know why I had entered this tomb, as if there was some guidance in the dark, dragging me into mysteries.
Alas!
