Chapter Eighty-Three: It's Arrived

I didn't react for a moment and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

"Boots there." When Platoon Leader Zhao said this, I obviously felt that Team Leader Liu beside me trembled.

In order to prevent squad leader Liu from reacting excessively, Platoon Leader Zhao and I sat on either side of him. I was worried that squad leader Liu would go berserk again, so I reached out and patted him as a sign of comfort. Actually, I'm afraid that he will jump up and run away, although he has no boots now, and he won't run very fast, but he also runs without a sound now, as long as he runs out of our sight or enters a fork in the road, don't think about finding him again. I sat on his right side, and I was determined to give him the severed right shoulder at the moment of his outburst, and directly abolish him.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" I said with some puzzlement and anger.

"I'm figuring out the direction of the fork in the road along the way, and you know, if I'm wrong, I'm probably not going to come back."

Platoon Commander Zhao didn't speak loudly, and I could hear the uncertainty inside. But compared to my stupid approach, this one is worth trying.

"Then follow your terms." I immediately voted in favor.

"Why do you have to go back there, there is no way out there, and I support finding a way out again." Squad leader Liu said in a trembling voice.

Of course, I know Squad Leader Liu's thoughts, and he is terrified to the point of returning to the intersection where the boots appeared. But if we don't go back there, we'll have to do the same process all over again, and explore outward with this as the center. And I've been completely lost. In terms of probability, whether this place is far from the entrance where we entered, or the chance of encountering Xiao Guolin, they are far lower than the place where we have explored the third layer, which is the fork in the road where the boots appear.

Of course, I was also terrified of the strange events that occurred at that fork in the road. But I firmly believe that this thing must be man-made, and that there are people who want us to go crazy about it, and that chaos and total loss will ensue. Again, this suggests that we are either starting to get closer to the truth or we are starting to get closer to the exit.

Not to mention this passage, since we entered the drain and groped all the way, we have encountered horrors and unbelievable things that have exceeded what I have seen and heard in my life. I can understand anyone who has collapsed from this, but I have developed a sense of numbness, and I will only remain in fear for a moment at anything horrible and beyond the norm, and soon ignore it, or at least weaken.

Now doing ideological work for squad leader Liu is like playing the piano to a cow, and at the same time, I am not in that mood. I decided to talk to him about it seriously, and I didn't plan to talk to him anymore, just let him know the result of his mistake again.

It's too dark, I don't need to put on a cold face, so I can concentrate a little more, I just need to get the tone right.

"I don't want to explain to you about those boots, because I don't even know what that's all about." I let out a deafening roar at the beginning. After a moment's pause, I continued in a tone of strong anger: "I carried you down through the cracks, you know the process, I don't say that your life is mine. So, without me nodding, die, you don't even think about it. You've dragged us down twice in a row, and I won't allow a third. In order to ensure that we are no longer dragged down by you. ”

At this point I stopped, pressed a hand on his right shoulder, and put my fingers into the splint that held his right shoulder bone in place. At this time, my breathing became thicker, and the hand grasping the splint was constantly straining, as if it was engaged in a violent struggle of thoughts, and it seemed that it was on the verge of rage.

I felt Squad Leader Liu's whole body tremble, and the splint that held his shoulder in place had shattered once, and the pain of that time almost made him collapse. And now we have absolutely no painkillers, and if I do tear off his splint, whether we end up dead or alive, he will be tormented in pain until that moment. My tone and actions showed that I was resolute. In fact, I was waiting for him to compromise, waiting for him to make a statement.

Sure enough, squad leader Liu said to me in a voice that was about to cry: "Brother Qiang, won't I run away?" I'm scared to death and I won't run away. ”

The force in my hand stopped, I didn't continue to exert force, but I didn't let go of my hand. It feels like hesitating.

"Brother Qiang, I promise." Squad Leader Liu couldn't wait to say.

I was very resolute, and said word by word: "I would rather carry a waste man on my back and grope in the passage, and never allow you to harm us again, and you will walk with me on the road below." ”

I sighed and let go of my hand. I just want him to know that I'm determined to abolish him.

I heard squad leader Liu let out a long breath. Apparently my words had a deterrent effect, and I hoped that he would not go crazy again, because I was really determined to depose him the moment he went berserk.

Platoon Leader Zhao walked in the front, and Squad Leader Liu and I followed him in turn. Because platoon leader Zhao only needs to lead the way from memory, there is no need to walk separately on both sides of the passage. I don't know how many forks we ran through, I can only follow Zhao Platoon Commander, Zhao Platoon Commander is very confident to turn around the left intersection first, I didn't light the torch, just used a hard object to draw an arrow in the direction of travel at this intersection in the dark. After entering this direction, Platoon Commander Zhao said: "The next direction is the passage on the right-hand side, and we will advance from the right side of the passage. ”

Saying that, Platoon Leader Zhao stopped, and I put a hand on the shoulder of Squad Leader Liu in front of me. After waiting for a while, the front moved, and I followed squad leader Liu to leave the cave wall on the left hand side, walked to the cave wall on the right hand side on the opposite side, and continued to move along the cave wall. I think our way of acting is very similar to that of a blind person, and even the movement should be very similar.

The three of us are in a strange state now, we are all afraid, but the things we are afraid of are different. Platoon Commander Zhao was afraid that he would not be able to complete the task at the beginning, but now he is probably just afraid of dying here. He seems to be an atheist, scoffing at ghosts and gods, and he has not linked them to all these things that are beyond common sense since he went underground, which is very similar to me. The only time he showed a breakdown or despair was caused by getting lost in the passage and possibly dying there. I believe that if there are really ghosts, Platoon Commander Zhao will dare to draw a gun and shoot, as long as it is in his way to survival, no matter who it is, no matter what it is, he will dare to fight.

And squad leader Liu is always afraid of ghosts and gods, whether it is a water ghost or a mountain ghost, a person who doesn't even shoot dead, but he is afraid of these things, I can't explain it, and I am completely speechless.

What am I afraid of? I could only laugh at myself. I'm afraid of the paranormal here. I don't believe that this huge honeycomb labyrinth, or the huge underground lake outside, was built by the ancients. Anything that happens here, anything that comes up is beyond my comprehension, and frankly, I'm scared too much, I'm afraid of everything here. I don't have much hope that I can go back alive, so I'm not afraid of death.

Like I said, I don't know how many intersections we ran this time, but going back I can remember how many intersections we passed. When we walked past the fifth intersection and Platoon Leader Zhao hadn't stopped, I felt that something was wrong. Because of such a short period of time, it is impossible for us to run a longer distance. The distance between each intersection should be roughly the same amount of steps, even if we go in circles, as long as we pass through so many intersections, the road we run should be very long.

I didn't speak, just drew the arrow in the direction of travel, as usual.

After walking through two more intersections, Platoon Commander Zhao sighed and said, "It's here." ”
