Chapter 215: The Island of Eclipse (21) Monkeys
Walking in the forest at night is really not a good thing.
Even if there was no roar of prey, no terrible cries of birds such as owls and crows, no insects, just silence and darkness, it was scary enough.
The darkness is the best at hiding danger, and the silence amplifies all the sounds, and when it comes together, I am a little bit of a soldier.
More than two hours have passed since the rain stopped, and it was almost midnight, and it was getting darker again, and until now, we had not encountered any danger, and we were lucky, after all, I didn't want to play games with those tigers and wolves in the trees and under the trees.
But speaking of which, our current situation is really similar to yesterday - there is also an unconscious person who needs to be carried on his back, yesterday it was Yu Pu, and today it is Li Sheng.
"Hmm"
There was a sound, the sound was small, but it was very clear in the silence, and it immediately attracted the attention of all of us - Li Sheng woke up.
Li Sheng was carrying Lu Haisheng's back at the moment, and when he heard the sound of Li Sheng waking up, Lu Haisheng also stopped, looked left and right and put him under a tree, let him lean against the tree, and Yu Pu also stepped forward to check Li Sheng's situation.
"How does it feel? Is there anything else uncomfortable? Yu Pu squatted beside Li Sheng and asked, while turning his head to us and shouting, "Bring some water, let Li Sheng drink some water." ”
"Nope! No, no, no! I'm not thirsty! As if frightened by Yu Pu's words, Li Sheng waved his hand and refused, and then said, "I'm fine, there's nothing uncomfortable about me, don't let me drink anymore." ”
It seems that Li Sheng is drinking water to get out of the psychological shadow. I know that there is a cure called aversion therapy, which is to associate a certain behavior with another stimulus that makes people feel disgusted, so that people also feel disgusted by that behavior, which is probably similar to Li Sheng's situation. Because he had to drink water constantly to make him vomit and vomit out all the things in his body, when he drinks water again, he will think of the feeling of vomiting, so he also resists drinking water.
"No, let's drink a little bit, don't drink as much as before."
Yu Pu stretched out his hand to me as he spoke, I understood his gesture, took out a bottle of water and handed it to him, and he handed it to Li Sheng, "Drink some more, you vomited so much before, it's okay to drink some water." ”
Li Sheng hesitated for a moment but nodded, reached out and took the bottle handed to him by Yu Pu and took a sip, but he didn't want to drink it anymore.
Yu Pu didn't force him, asked a few more questions, and after making sure that Li Sheng didn't have any problems, he stood up and retreated.
Lu Haisheng kept hearing Yu Pu ask, and after hearing Li Sheng say that there was no problem, he said, "Li Sheng, are you sure that there is nothing wrong with you?" Can you go on your own after that? ”
"Yes, I can go by myself, and I don't need to trouble you to carry me. Thank you for saving my life. ”
Li Sheng said, got up from the ground, stood up, bowed to us one by one, and said, "Thank you, thank you for bothering." ”
I turned my head to look at Lu Haisheng, and it happened that he was also turning his head to look at me, his eyes met, but he didn't say anything, just turned his head and said to everyone, "Rest in place for a while, and then continue walking." ”
I didn't see Lu Haisheng's attitude, so I didn't ask after thinking about it. I have to say that Li Sheng's act of thanking me just now touched me, think about it carefully, although he was unwilling to correct Wang Haobo before, but he was not unwilling to help him commit perjury, from the perspective of the situation, maybe Li Sheng is a person who can consider becoming a companion.
I believe that no one who knows how to repay is too bad, and Li Sheng may really be our companion.
After watching everyone sit down and rest, I also found a nearby place to sit down, turned my head to look at Li Sheng, thought about it, took out some food from my bag and handed it to him, "Do you want to eat something?" ”
Li Sheng was slightly stunned, and stretched out his hand to take it, "Ah, thank you." ”
I smiled at him, didn't say anything, and turned my head to meet Lu Haisheng's gaze. Lu Haisheng didn't say anything, just glanced at me and turned his gaze away.
Seriously, since the cave came out, I feel weak now when I see Lu Haisheng, and I don't know what I'm void of, it's really a hell.
Lean against a tree, close your eyes, and enjoy a moment of peace. I opened my eyes and looked at the hazy shadow above, where there was an endless depth of darkness.
I suddenly remembered a passage from that book and read it out loud unconsciously.
She turned her head to look out the window, and all the lights had gone out in the middle of the night, leaving a silent darkness.
"The darkness was so deep and solemn that it seemed to have substance, as if a cloud of viscous ink had poured in, enveloping her entirely, almost suffocating, and there was nowhere to escape."
"She pondered in the darkness of the night what had happened recently, the puzzle of death or the dangerous game, until the darkness of the night receded, and the color of the sky slowly faded and faded, until the sky turned gray, until a glimmer of light broke and the night was over."
"She closed her eyes slightly in the morning light, and even though there was already light around her, she still felt that she was in a darkness, which hid danger, hidden the unknown, hidden her own uncertain fate, and hidden all her fears and the truth she had been seeking"
I had just finished reading the whole paragraph when I heard a male voice coming from beside me.
"If you are in the dark, then move forward bravely, the real danger comes from the stagnation caused by fear, keep moving forward, and the light will naturally come."
I turned my head to look at Li Sheng with some surprise, I didn't expect him to pick up such a paragraph.
I said, "This is a passage from Mo Zichen's book, have you seen that book too?" ”
Li Sheng seemed to have heard something very interesting, shook his head and laughed for a while, but did not answer my words, but asked me instead, "This is indeed the words in Mo Zichen's book, but did you deliberately memorize this paragraph?" What you just said seems to be word for word. “
Of course, it's word for word, and if you read the same book thousands of times in a row, anyone can memorize it backwards.
I also smiled at Li Sheng, but did not answer his words, but said, "If you are in the dark night, then you have the courage to move forward, the real danger often comes from the stagnation caused by fear, and if you keep moving forward, the light will naturally come." That's what the original version said. ”
Li Sheng was stunned by my words, and only after being stunned did he smile and said, "Yes, yes, what you said is right, indeed what you said should be the original." Do you really have to memorize that passage? ”
"I could memorize the whole book." Looking at Li Sheng's skeptical eyes, I tilted my head and thought about it, and added, "I have read that book more than a thousand times." ”
Li Sheng seemed shocked, looked at me and was silent for a while before saying, "Do you like Mo Zichen's book very much?" Like it to memorize the whole book? ”
Like to memorize the whole book? I'm not that obsessed with this, but I really like it.
"I do like Mo Zichen's books." I nodded, it's not a lie, is it? "This book has a special meaning for me."
"Is there a special meaning?" Li Sheng repeated, and suddenly smiled again, "I am honored to let my book carry your special meaning." ”
"You, your book?" I was a little stunned, I guess he meant it
"Ah, re-introduction, my name is Li Sheng, Muzi Li, Cheng Sheng, a professional writer, and my pen name is Mo Zichen."
Momo Zichen?
I looked at Li Sheng in front of me in shock, and suddenly felt that he had become much taller, and carefully recalled the photos of Mo Zichen that I had seen before, and I was really more and more convinced that Li Sheng was Mo Zichen himself.
"You're real, I'm the one"
I was so excited that I was a little incoherent, looking at Li Sheng smirking, and was about to go to Li Sheng's side, but I was stopped by a low shout when I got up halfway through.
"Don't leave! Don't move! ”
My movements were subconsciously stiff, and then I realized that Li Sheng in front of me was also staring at me with a solemn face, is there anything above me?
"Shhhh Don't speak, don't move" Lu Haisheng said as he slowly moved in my direction with his waist bent, and I saw that he was holding a knife in his hand.
I hunched over and didn't dare to move, knowing that something was above my head, but I didn't know what the danger was, this nervous and frightened feeling made me break out in a cold sweat, and in a short moment, I could already feel my back soaking wet. At the same time, I also noticed that something was approaching the top of my head, and some liquid pulled out Chang Si drooped from the side of my face, accompanied by a fishy smell of gasps slowly approaching the top of my head
"Squat!"
With Lu Haisheng's loud shout, I quickly crouched down, and the sound of collision was accompanied by a tooth-aching bite, followed by a terrible scream. I sat on the floor and looked up, only to see some warm liquid dripping onto my face. Reaching out and touching it, the heavy smell of blood was sticky and warm.
Before I could react, Lu Haisheng pulled me up and stepped back, and after retreating to the others in a few big steps, I saw that there was a monkey just above my head, which had been pierced through the head by Lu Haisheng with a knife and died.
But the sound of the branches and leaves rubbing against each other came, and I looked up to see monkeys crawling down from the trees around me, and there were monkeys in every tree.
There are no tigers and wolves tonight, and there are crazy monkeys?
I swallowed and took a quick look around. Now everyone, including Fu Lingjun and the four of them, were all gathered together in a circle, surrounded by condescending monkeys climbing down from the trees. And this time, we don't even have a chance to climb trees to dodge, so we can only fight!
I took a closer look at the monkeys, which were far larger than us, and the sharp fangs and claws of each of them
Fight and!
