"Take control of the scene." He Guoyun said, "Evacuate the crowd, so that things don't come out." Then he looked at the man on the ground and walked down without looking back.

It was only a few feet from the bridge to the river, but because there were too many people, the scene was jammed and chaotic, and I followed my father and they squeezed left and right to reluctantly walked down, and the staff below were actively cleaning up the corpses on the bridge piers, and the rotting human flesh emitted a strong corpse stench in the sun after a while. I frowned and put my neck over my nose, wondering if it would be a good idea to come down, but just then I saw someone.

In the heat of 35 degrees, no one would wear a robe in this weather, and it was black, but it was such a person who was mixed in with the crowd, looking at me from afar, not looking at the dead man on the pier or looking at me, and instantly cold sweat covered my forehead.

However, it was not over, in the crowd I actually saw the man swaggering towards me, in my direction, yes, he avoided the crowd and walked towards me. I gritted my teeth and tried to take a few steps back, but then I heard a voice "Come on!" Come here. ”

"Hu Xiao!" It was Hu Xiao's voice.

The voice continued, as if it were drifting in one direction, as if a person was talking as he walked, "Hurry, hurry." Hu Xiao's voice was still lingering, and I was stunned for a moment and suddenly ran in the direction of the voice.

At this time, the middle of the river has been shoveled out of a walkway by a forklift, both sides of the walkway are full of people, I took my dad and ran over with the direction of the voice without paying attention, fortunately at this time some civil servants in the river are my father's subordinates, I just ran over naturally no one dared to say me, but halfway through the run, the father's pig-like voice roared, "Little rabbit, where are you dead?" ”

As soon as I heard it, I knew it was over. But thinking that I have already asked my father to say this, then it means that I must be beaten violently when I go home, so no matter where I run, I can't take off a layer of skin, right? "Forget it." Let's take a look. I thought about it, and I ended up here anyway.

Soon I followed the sound to the bottom of the broken bridge, and the stench of corpses made me a little unbearable, but I had to endure and climb up the bridge. At the same time, Hu Xiao's voice sounded again: "Come to me, come to me." The voice was unusually clear, as if he was actually standing in my ear, but I turned around and found nothing.

"Come on, come on." The sound is getting louder and louder, like the sound coming out of a loudspeaker, no, it's an echo, it's the effect of the sound coming out of a relatively small space where a tunnel is still there. I suddenly lowered my head and saw that under the layers of steel supports of the bridge, a large hole with a diameter of more than ten meters was revealed.

The huge hole looked very large, but because the bridge broke and collapsed on it, we could only see everything below through the small hole of the bridge, I looked down in a daze, and suddenly thought of the legend of the underground river, but soon I saw a black cloak was thrown down, just happened to cover the hole, and then a voice sounded in my ears, "Why are you a little kid running here without knowing the danger?" ”

Then he carried me up. In the sunlight I saw an angular face with blond hair. The deep turquoise eyes reflected the sunlight and reflected my own face in the pupils: "Foreigner? What I didn't say to him was Chinese. Then he smiled at me, picked me up and jumped off the bridge, I have to say that this guy has a lot of arm strength, like the kind of otaku who has been single for more than ten years, one hand carries me and I am running through the river like a fly, all the way to the shore. I was put down, and at this time the people around me burst into applause.

"What's going on?" I was momentarily stunned.

"If you want to die, don't die in that place!" I saw the man bow his head and say something to me, and immediately disappeared into the crowd.

"Damn." I blushed, and I couldn't imagine that I was being saved by someone else as a person seeking death. But then again, why did the man drop his clothes? Did he deliberately try to cover that place?

It was indispensable to be scolded by my father next, but I didn't care so much, because I really heard Hu Xiao's voice. A voice from the depths of that dark underground. But it seems that today my dad gave me a big face and didn't hit me, just told me to go back in a deep voice, I pouted, but I wondered if I should come here again to confirm something.

The woman and the puppet, and the door and the disappeared person, all of this had to be made for me to string them together, just like the arbitrary door of Doraemon, Hu Xiao walked through one door and didn't actually die but went to another place where it should exist? So is that place under this river?

When I returned home in the afternoon, I dialed Dong Chao and Hu Zongwei's home, and I asked them if they were going to come over, because I found clues about Hu Xiao. They all responded that they were coming over the next day, so we agreed on a time and hung up. In the evening, my father came back very late, but today he came back with a red face, and he seemed to have drunk a lot of wine, and he couldn't open the door in a blur outside the door, and I thought at first that the thief was going out with a broom and gave him a slap.

Dad seemed to have woken up a lot when he was beaten by me, and scolded when he opened his mouth: "You rebel, you lost such a big face to me today, it's okay if you don't beat you, this fucking I was beaten by you when I went home." With that, he fell.

I sighed and helped my dad into the house.

When I lay in bed, I couldn't fall asleep, as if Hu Xiao's words had been ringing in my ears, until 12 o'clock in the evening, when I suddenly got up from my bed, and I thought that I must go over and have a look, and go to the underground mouth of the river again.

Some people say that life needs a trip that says go, and at first I despised the person who said it, because I thought it was death, you have no money, and you don't know the way. Where are you going? But until today, I finally understood the meaning of that sentence, in fact, this sentence does not highlight the word travel, but highlights the four words "just go", just like those bank robbers in the movie, they smoke a cigarette and drink a sip of wine, and do what they say.

I got up and brushed my teeth. I took a sip of Sprite and thought, "Let's go." ”

I tiptoed open the door of my room and walked out, the summer night was not a single wind, it was dry like a cellar that had been dusty for years, except for the larger space, and the same was the offensive smell of wine. In front of the house where my family lives is a night food stall, those who are not satisfied with work, those who fall in love, and those who fail their exams. I poured here every day, as if I had made an appointment, and I started drinking from 11 o'clock and started vomiting at 12 o'clock.

I've grown up so much that I can be regarded as seeing the world through them. Shaking my head, I had to twist my nose and run quickly through the street. Due to the implementation of this year's lighting project, most of the streets in the county have also been installed with street lights, although it is early in the morning, but the light of the street lights still illuminates the road brightly, plus the night sky with sparse stars today, making the eyes more and more bright.

It took about half an hour to walk. I took the large flashlight at home to the bridge of the Xiuhe River, and vaguely remembered that this flashlight was used by my father when he participated in the flood fight in 98. But today I took it to the place where the floods were rampant, but now all that remains is a dry river. I was brave enough to climb up the ruined bridge, which had already been disposed of by the men during the day, and I could see the black marks of the fire when I climbed onto the bridge.

"It's really impermanent, these people actually died again." I thought to myself, and I don't know why these bodies, which have been claimed by their families, are still under the bridge. But according to the clues they analyzed, there is only one truth, that is, the corpses that were washed ashore by the river back then were not their original figures.

What kind of secrets are hidden beneath this river?

I sighed and took the flashlight and began to shine downward, the structure of the bridge itself has many layers, so under the illumination of the light, the layers of steel cascade down to produce a blurry illusion. I didn't pay attention to it during the day, but at night, such dizziness came up. Maybe it has something to do with looking down at what is below for a long time! I was trying to get up and rest for a while, when suddenly one of the bridge's shelves collapsed with a "bang", and I fell straight and straight.

I don't know how long it took, but I slowly woke up, and I found myself in a hollow crypt, with the steel frame of the bridge above me and a bottomless abyss below, in which I could faintly hear the sound of slow running water. "Where is this?" I said to myself, and then I felt a cold wind blow blowing on my left, and I turned my head to see a huge ship on my side.

And just as I was at a loss, I heard a staggering sound from above, like the sound of a cutter in a steel shop, and I quickly covered my ears with a feeling of irritability. Raising his head, a person jumped lightly from it under the moonlight, and he climbed to a place less than a meter away from me, glanced at me, and suddenly rushed to the top, "Grand scene?" Fucking someone got the first shot. ”

I looked at that person in such a stunned state for a while, I didn't know how to express it, if I saw someone, the first feeling was definitely the excitement of being rescued, but when he spoke, I realized, what the hell am I going to be the first to get there? Could it be that Lao Tzu is looking for death, and you will be scolded by you if you are one step faster, right?

"Cut." The man above made a nasal sound, and did not seem to take the so-called first step seriously, but continued to use his hot cutter to cut the cantilever on the bridge, and I watched the man leaning on the broken bridge in the dark, until the man above cut a beam, and under the flame of the cutter, I saw through the red light the man who was going to preempt me even if he wanted to die.

Under the bright starry sky, the moonlight poured down on him like a crystal mist, the flames broke through the air flow around him and gushed out wildly, he smiled and pulled out a Cuban "Trinidad" cigar, the cigar was instantly lit in the heat, he silently exhaled a smoke ring, and walked down the broken bridge against the torrent of steel.
