Chapter 43: Questioning and Enlightenment
Qing Shui Liang scolded vigorously and fired a warning shot, but he couldn't stop the prisoners from escaping. What did they see?
The black fog grew bigger and bigger, the depths of the fog were full of ghosts, and the ears were accompanied by the hysterical screams of the prisoners, and the Japanese photographer's hands were shaking with fear. As the only soldier here, Shimizu Ryo was also afraid, but he knew he had to do something. He grabbed a prisoner with a gun and forced him to explore the depths of the fog with him.
This prisoner is numbered 377.
The two of them are in front, the photographer is behind, and they don't care about the other prisoners, let's see what is going on inside. Just as he was about to break through the fog, the fog suddenly became thicker, flowing and condensing, like a black cloud churning. The ground began to shake, as if it had suddenly shook. Qing Shui Liang was unsteady on his feet, fell to the ground, and inhaled a lot of mist in a hurry, and then he couldn't remember what happened.
"Finished?" I asked.
Yao Bing nodded: "Although it was easy, when I came out of there, I found that my soul was lost." ”
Lost your soul? What does that mean?
Yao Bing said: "It's normal during the day. But at night, when I went to sleep and dreamed, I would find myself in hell and tortured in all kinds. I had a strong feeling that my soul was lost in that door. ”
"Is it the same with 377?" I asked.
"He's seen more." Yao Bing said: "He was still hiding something until he died, and I asked him many times, but he didn't say anything. The hell I encountered was very terrible, but I felt that the underworld that 377 saw was very beautiful, because he kept muttering, and even wanted to die to fulfill his long-cherished wish to go to the underworld. In the end, he finally died, and I don't know if he went back. ”
It dawned on me that the 377 thing could no longer be discussed. About 377 is all Lao Zhang told me, wouldn't it be revealing to say too much.
Yang Muyun took a sip of tea and said, "I made an agreement with Qing Shui, he will help me find the secret of immortality, and I will help him find the lost soul." We hit it off and formed this expedition. ”
Yao Bing laughed: "I have advised Lao Yang many times that immortality may not be good, but he didn't listen. ”
Yang Muyun sighed: "You have lived enough, you don't have back pain when you stand and talk." Everyone says that it is a hundred deaths to die, but when death is really faced, few people are detached, and survival is human instinct. As long as I survive, I don't mind what I become. ”
Hearing this, I remembered Liu Xiaojun and asked softly: "Even if it's a monster?" ”
Yang Muyun looked at me, put down the tea bowl, and said, "Even if it's a monster!" ”
Came out of the tent, in a trance, without energy. I don't know why I suddenly had a delusion, and suddenly I felt that there was a crack between me and the world. Just as I was about to think about it, my head was so numb that it was like I had been kicked by a donkey, and I didn't want to think about anything, I just wanted to sleep quietly.
In the midst of the gangsters, he was invited into a tent. My clothes were changed and someone started checking my body. During the whole process, I was in a half-dream, half-awake, and I seemed to see Wang Xiaoyu in a hazy way, I held her hand tightly, and she also held mine. Suddenly, I saw that the girl's pretty face changed, half of it was still so fair and beautiful, and the other half became the pale and colorless Liu Xiaojun. Liu Xiaojun and Wang Xiaoyu's faces bite together, forming an extremely weird visual effect.
I was going to struggle to get up, and someone pressed me down and told me to lie down honestly. The uneasiness in my heart was even stronger. As I lay down, exhaustion and sleepiness came like a tidal wave, and I slowly fell asleep, not paying attention to what they were doing on my body.
I dreamed of many strange things. Sleep was heavy, and I was completely immersed in that world, running like an elf. Dreams are long, long, and I have had many experiences, but I only remember two of them. The first thing is that I saw Li Yang again, and he was very lonely. We didn't communicate, and for some reason I saw him and didn't want to bother him. Maybe it's because the scene is so beautiful. At dusk, the sea is calm, and the air is filled with a refreshing salty smell. Li Yang sat alone on the beach, his small size contrasted sharply with the huge red sunset on the horizon, which was so beautiful that it made people's hearts tremble. This scene is firmly etched in my memory, and the vivid colors will never fade.
The second thing was that I was in a single hospital room, I was in a hospital gown, sitting in a wheelchair, paddling to the window and looking out at the green lawn. There were also a few unfinished newspapers on his knees. I wasn't the only one in the room, there were two people who were blurred and couldn't see clearly, who seemed to be talking to something on a chair not far behind them. Strangely, although I didn't know what the two men looked like, I did know that they were two men under the age of thirty.
What they say, I don't pay attention to, I don't even get into my ears. My eyes were fixed on a spotted puppy on the lawn below, jumping happily in the sun.
When I woke up again, it was already a day and a night.
I rubbed my sore head and sat up in chaos. Bouts of dizziness, only nausea.
"Are you awake?" A gentle voice sounded, and I saw Wang Xiaoyu. She was shoeless and sat barefoot and bent next to me. I couldn't help but reach out and touch her hair, she snuggled her face in the palm of my hand, and I actually felt an unrealistic sense of unreality at such a warm moment.
"I had a very strange dream." I said.
Wang Xiaoyu smiled: "It doesn't matter, no matter what dreams you have, I will accompany you." ”
I wanted to stand up, but my legs were weak, so Wang Xiaoyu hurriedly supported me. I stood up slowly, turned around suddenly, and saw a miserable white person sitting in the depths of the tent, it was Liu Xiaojun. I was so scared that I fell to the ground on my feet.
Wang Xiaoyu whispered: "This strange person said that he was your friend, and he scared me to death." ”
At that moment, the tent curtain was lifted, and a man in a white coat entered. He wore a stethoscope, listened to my heartbeat, rolled his eyes and looked at his throat, and then asked a few questions, mostly how he felt now, if he was uncomfortable, and so on. I said that my body was fine, but I was a little dizzy. He said that it was normal to have this reaction when he suddenly woke up after falling asleep. After checking on me, he nodded with satisfaction: "Mr. Yang is most worried about your body, he said that if you are okay, rest for three days." Got off the base three days later. ”
The doctor came out of the curtain, and Liu Xiaojun said, "This time I will go to the base." ”
I thought about it and said, "What I said doesn't count, if you want to follow, you must say hello to Yang Muyun." ”
"He's the head, isn't he?" Liu Xiaojun asked.
I nodded, thought about it and felt that it was no later to take Liu Xiaojun to see Yang Muyun. Actually, I wasn't in such a hurry for Liu Xiaojun's sake, I thought that if Yang Muyun recognized Liu Xiaojun's identity, he would be able to assign him a tent, don't squeeze with me. Not to mention the trouble, it also delayed the world of me and Wang Xiaoyu.
Wang Xiaoyu wanted to go with me, I thought about it and agreed, and I had to say something to her.
The three of us came out of the tent and didn't see each other for more than a day, and found that the camp was much more lively. It turned out that the wounded in the team were all sent out of the mountain, and now those who remain are healthy new players. I walked over and saw Zhong Xiu on the road, she had recovered a lot, she was wiping the saber with a flannel cloth, and saw me nodding slightly. I saw the monkey again, and he was still bragging, and he was pulling a group of newcomers to talk about his experience.
We came to Yang Muyun's tent, and after saying hello, I asked Liu Xiaojun to go in and talk to Yang Muyun by himself, so I didn't mix, and what the conversation ended up with was a matter for the two of them.
I dragged Wang Xiaoyu into the forest, and she blushed and said, "What are you doing?" ”
I said angrily, "Didn't you let you go earlier, why did you come back again?" You're just so unreassuring. ”
Wang Xiaoyu took my arm and said obediently, "I want to leave, but I can't let you go." ”
Looking at her delicate and blushing appearance, something in my heart was slowly melting. I held her hand and whispered, "Xiaoyu, sometimes I don't think it's true. ”
"Why? Because of me? She tilted her face to me.
I didn't know how to say it, looking at the white clouds in the sky, and said slowly: "Before, I was a dick, my grandmother didn't love my uncle, and there were girls who could like me?" It's unthinkable. Now I have you by my side, and I have a series of unimaginable experiences. Ordinary people have never encountered such a thing in their lives, but I have encountered them one by one. Sometimes I wonder if all this is true, if I am going to live in a dream. ”
Wang Xiaoyu touched my head and said softly: "Silly child, why are you entangled in truth and falsehood. My grandmother used to say that instead of worrying about where you are, you should enjoy the moment. Even if you dream, I am standing in front of you at this time, but I really exist. ”
I suddenly realized and held her hand tightly: "Thank you. ”
Wang Xiaoyu grinned: "What else do we say thank you or not, what a stupid child." ”
When I got back to the camp, I was at ease, no matter what was going on or what was going on, I was just going to be myself.
Liu Xiaojun came back, entered my tent, and said lightly: "Yang Muyun agreed to let me participate in this operation. I'm with you during this time. ”
He sat cross-legged at the back of the tent, closed his eyes slightly, and ignored them.
Wang Xiaoyu and I will say something and do something, it is quite awkward. It was also dark, and I had to send the girl away. Guarding such an old monster who doesn't sleep but meditates cross-legged is really disturbing to the extreme.
Three days passed quickly, and this time we organized an expedition of up to eight people. What surprised me was that Yang Muyun also wanted to participate.
At this time, Yang Muyun had already had some symptoms of advanced cancer, the most obvious being a cough and a sallow face. In order to take care of him, there are two bodyguards with big shoulders and round waists in the team, and they can run on their backs when they are in danger. The team members who explored the cave in the early stage have all become the main force this time, such as Zhong Xiu Monkey. Compared with last time, there is one less Lao Zhang and Lao Jia in the team.
Lao Zhang, if he wasn't surprised, he must have been killed. For many days, there was no trace of him. Yang Muyun sent someone to check his equipment, but he didn't touch it, indicating that he never came back.
