Chapter 38: Memories
In the German narrative, he belonged to the second team, and the German cipher recorded the goal of the mission sent by Hitler himself.
Their goal: to find the axis of time, to find the mystery of Aryan immortality.
The German smiled bitterly and said: "In this way, I took my team, all the way to Qinghai secretly, in the middle of the way to avoid the armies of various countries, every step is very difficult, things far beyond our expectations, when we arrived in Qinghai, the equipment and food on our bodies are almost consumed, so we can only go to the local Tibetan house to steal, at that time the Tibetans living here are scattered, and often migrate, we delayed two or three days to find a family, grabbed not much, and at that time, we were already hungry and dizzy." ”
"Then my men told me to give up, and they begged me to take them home, but I was so full of thinking only about completing the task, thinking about the praise of the chief, thinking about the honor in the future, and I didn't care about anything, so I took them into the mountains. We just walked in the snowy mountains, kept walking, as if we were going to the end of heaven and earth, and in the next process, people kept falling, the original team of fifteen people, in the end there were only nine partners left, I still didn't give up, honor was too important to me, and at that time, we had already walked a long distance, the food had run out, and there was no chance to turn back, just when everyone was desperate, we encountered wolves. ”
I was shocked to see that he had traveled far more than we do now.
The German looked at us and said with a smile: "We were also cornered by them at first, but we were lucky to find one of their weaknesses, they are not afraid of light or fire, but they are afraid of smoke." Probably due to evolutionary reasons, their noses are very sensitive and they are very afraid of smoke, so we set our clothes on fire, and with that little eye, we got rid of the wolves, and then ...... Then ......"
He seemed to be recalling something, his lips trembled a little, and I noticed that his fingertips were trembling.
After a long time, he said intermittently: "Then we finally walked out of the canyon, and the next thing, one of our companions suddenly went blind...... He cried out in fear in the snow and begged, "Don't abandon me, please, take me home, bring me home." "But we were all too weak to go down with a blind man, and we gave up on him."
When he said this, I suddenly didn't want to listen to it anymore, because I heard Xiuxiu talk about the rest of the story.
But the German was still saying, he hid his face and said, "Then we left him alone and went on, and we kept going, and we went on and on, but in the end we got lost, and all of us were so hungry that we could only eat the snow desperately." Can you understand the throbbing pain of hunger in your stomach while you keep stuffing cold snow into it? At that time, we wanted to have a bowl of hot soup, I forgot all the tasks, all the glory, and my mind was full of food, mashed potatoes, duck liver soup, steak, pizza...... We don't have any conviction anymore. ”
The German, still masked, said with fear: "At this moment we saw something in the distance, and when we got closer, we saw that it was the blind companion. He was dead, his eyes wide as if he wanted to see something. He must have wanted to get out of this snowy field, so he was obviously blind, but he still tried to keep his eyes open. But he was already frozen. It was strange that his body was not covered in snow when the wind and snow were so big, and I touched his face to make him close his eyes, but as soon as I touched his face, my hand could not be taken away. ”
"It was such a wonderful feeling, I touched the meat, although it was stiff, but it was full of temptation, I imagined the beauty of the meat, I couldn't take my hand off it anymore, I went down and touched his pectoral muscles, toned muscles, which must have been very elastic when he was alive, and underneath, there was no greasy fat, only lean meat, like a steak. I fantasized about this in my head, my whole stomach cramped, my hand was completely absorbed by his skin, I touched his whole body, and at that moment, I noticed that other people were also touching this corpse, and I looked into their eyes...... Oh my, oh my! Blood-red, blood-red! Like the eyes that want to eat people. ”
I shuddered to hear it, I didn't feel that hunger, but now, my stomach seemed to be cramping.
A strange smile suddenly appeared on the German's face, and he stared at me and said, "Do you know what we did next?" We stabbed him one by one, and ate him, only the intestines and bones were left, and his intestines were stench, empty, and there was not even water, and when I think about it now, I have gagging **. As he spoke, he tilted his head and retched.
I gritted my teeth and said, "Don't say it." ”
The German smiled, his eyes were wet, he was covered again, his hands trembled, his voice was a little choked and he was talking to himself, this time, he was speaking German, I don't know what he was talking about, maybe it was repentance.
After a long time, he calmed down and continued to recall, he said: "We kept walking, we kept walking, and we still didn't come to the end, each of us had blood-red eyes, ready to be eaten by teammates at any time, of course, we didn't eat people anymore, we ate other things, this snow-capped mountain is cold on the surface, in fact, it hides a lot of life inside, ordinary people can't find it, but we found it." During this time, my memories were all chaotic, and I can't remember what happened in between, except that when I got to the end, I arrived at a strange place, and as soon as I looked down, I saw a huge coffin. ”
My heart jumped, how big is the huge coffin?
He looked at my shocked look and smiled: "I don't know if I walked into that coffin, because I forgot everything that happened later, my memory was interrupted there, and the later memory is that I went back, and my teammates, all died, I dragged their bodies back, I thought I would die on the road, but I survived, and when I finally walked back to Nima Snow Mountain, I suddenly didn't dare to go out, because I didn't know that I wasn't a person yet." ”
The German's loose skin was shaking, and he was trembling all over, but it was almost impossible to detect without looking closely.
The German continued: "Then, I put their bodies in a hole in the ground, and I wandered between the snow-capped mountains of Nima, not daring to go down the mountain, not daring to go forward, I stayed, but since then, I have repeated the previous experience every day, I am constantly tormented by repeated hallucinations, and then I know that I have met a ghost, it is the ghost of my teammates who is condemning me, I am crazy, indeed crazy, I have no memory at all for these sixty years, until the arrival of your team, I woke up." ”
He then asked, "Do you want to know why I saved you?" ”
This is indeed not a person anymore, I shook my head stiffly, and said, "I guessed, but now it seems that my guess may be wrong. The German laughed and said, "Because you are the weakest." ”
He then laughed out loud and said, "I found out that I have not aged and have lived for more than eighty years, I thought, it must have something to do with the huge coffin, but I can't remember the way, so, when I heard your goal and the legend of immortality, I knew that we were fellow travelers, and I wanted to find out why I was alive and how my teammates died, I wanted to know, did I enter that coffin, I wanted to know, what happened there." ”
I had calmed down at this point, and followed his words: "You think we know the coffin, so you need us to lead the way, but the others are too dangerous, so you choose me, who is the weakest and easiest to control." ”
The German nodded and said, "Yes, we cooperate, perhaps...... You can also gain the same abilities as me, as the Tibetan said, the abilities of Kulazhigyal. ”
I took a deep breath and asked one last question: "My teammates, what the hell are they?" ”
The German shrugged his shoulders and said, "I only dug you out, and the others, I neither dug nor mended the knife, whether they died or lived, it all depends on their lives." "I put my mind at ease, as long as this madman doesn't make up for Xiaohua and them, then everything that follows will have to be left to fate.
I asked, "Where are we now?" ”
The Germans said: "Where he was eaten." From then on, I forgot all the way I had traveled, all I knew was that I kept walking, and at last I saw a huge coffin. ”
I frowned and asked reluctantly, "How big is that coffin?" Where does it appear? What does it look like? ”
The German thought for a moment, suddenly rubbed his forehead, and groaned: "I don't know, I only know that it is a very big coffin, and I can't remember what it looks like." "I held him up for a long time, and I couldn't see any clue, but I wouldn't believe all the words he said, I could only use them as a reference, at least for now, I had to cooperate with him, and the coffin he said could be the Tianyuan coffin we were looking for?
In any case, the road ahead now can only be one step at a time.
We didn't have any sleepiness, I subconsciously looked at my watch, it was four o'clock in the morning, the two of them sat on the cave wall, no one spoke, each thinking about things, about two hours later, the dark night outside faded, although it was not yet bright, but it had revealed a gray color, it was a fog formed by the snow, which was blurry and changeable.
The Germans gave me a small bag of equipment, which was full of tools and ropes, and there was no heavy fire or food, and just like that, the two of us touched the darkness of dawn, and when it was just light, we began to set out on our way.
