Chapter 4: Parting
Louis carried Professor Luo on his back and ran all the way to the river, while several uninjured members of the expedition team hurried up to meet the two of them.
Louis gently lowered Professor Luo and whispered to the team members to prepare to cross the river and take Professor Luo to a safe place immediately. It was at this time that the attackers suddenly stopped attacking. There was a sound of snorting in the bushes, as if the men had received some order to retreat. The noise in the bushes quickly died down, and the mysterious group of attackers never showed up from the moment they suddenly attacked until they retreated.
Louie and the others listened quietly for a while, and they were relieved to finally make sure that the gang had left.
The sky was turning white, and the first rays of the jungle sun shone on the riverbank. At this time, the uninjured team members found that there was a mess around them. Two of the tents in the camp were overturned, and the ground was littered with household items and expedition tools. Apparently everyone fell to the ground in a panic. Many of the team members by the river were hit by arrows. Some of the more serious injuries have only been able to breathe out but not intake, and those with less serious injuries are lying on the ground moaning.
Louis was not in the mood to look at this, and in his eyes, Professor Luo was the most worthy of attention. At this time, he saw Professor Luo half-lying and leaning against a stone not far away, motionless. Louie hurriedly stepped forward to ask Professor Luo if anything was wrong, but found that Professor Luo was holding a feather arrow in his hand, and the arrow of the feather arrow was dripping blood.
"Professor, are you alright?" Louis sensed something was wrong and hurriedly asked. Professor Luo didn't say anything, but pointed to Louie's travel bag with difficulty. Louis understood that Professor Luo was looking at the amber stone. He was very glad that he put the stone back in his travel bag in a panic, otherwise how would he explain it to Professor Luo!
"Professor here, look here!" Louis carefully held the amber stone in his hand. Professor Luo looked at the amber stone for a few seconds, and then said slowly, "The secret may be in this. He said this with a feeble voice, his lips opening very little, and only Louis could hear him at this distance.
Louis nodded in agreement with the professor. Professor Luo was obviously very happy and showed a relieved expression, but this relief was mixed with a hint of pain. "Help me up." Professor Luo said to Louis in a semi-commanding tone. Louis hurriedly put the amber stone on the ground on the side, stepped forward and put his hand on Professor Luo's back to make him sit upright, but he felt something slimy on his hand. When he pulled out his hand, he couldn't help but be surprised, blood! It flowed down Professor Luo's back.
"This! Professor! Louie couldn't help himself and shouted. At this time, the uninjured team members also came over when they heard Louis's shout. When they got closer, they found that Professor Luo had a wound on his back that was bleeding constantly, apparently due to an arrow wound.
"Professor, I'll help you stop the bleeding!" Louis said as he got up to find the medicine kit. Professor Law grabbed Louie. "Kid, no, I'm dying. It's too late for me to pull out the arrow, and I'm going to die. The professor tried to speak, but the words that were clearly spat out were already muffled.
"Nope! No, no! Professor, you won't die. I didn't go back, there was a hospital in town, and I would save you!" "Louie wished he had wings on his ribs and taken the professor to the hospital." Xiexie hello boy I'm leaving. Don't, don't be sad. We will zaijian face research research do not stop to find out the answer I God I"
Professor Luo looked at Louie, the glint in his eyes gradually fading. Louie's tears flowed down like a flood that burst the embankment. In his opinion, Professor Luo took care of himself like a father, and they respected each other like friends. Now that he has lost such a father and best friend, it is simply an unimaginable disaster for Louis! The surrounding team members all bowed their heads silently. No one tried to dissuade Louie, because they knew Professor Luo's place in his heart. Perhaps only by fully releasing the pain of losing a loved one in his heart is the most comforting thing for the current Louis.
As the minutes ticked by, Louis wiped the tears that kept flowing. Finally, he stopped crying and stood up. Louis slowly raised his head and looked at the rising sun in the distance, and silently thought in his heart: Professor, I won't let you die in vain! I will fulfill your last wish, I will definitely complete our research to find God's secret! Certain! I'm going to find your killer too! Certain!
Louis thus strengthened his conviction that he did not know what he was going to discover or what he would change. History and legends will remember this day, because the wheel of Shijie's fate turns.
When Louis made his vow, no one noticed that the amber stone on the ground suddenly shone with an eerie light, and this day was December 12, 2012.
