Fortunately, Li Xu was tough enough, and he didn't let go after being bitten by a mouse, and stayed on the ladder well. After she shouted that I hadn't heard for a long time, I panicked a little and stopped swearing, and I could see the flashlight hanging from her waist shaking violently, and I knew that she was trying her best to climb down.

After Li Xu's voice died down and the pit became quiet, I was horrified to realize that there seemed to be a voice next to my head.

There really is a sound.

It's light, but it's real, and if you listen closely, you can't make out what it is, it's no more than 30 centimeters on the left side of my head, poof, poof, poof.

Puff puff.

Puff puff.

Before I could figure out the sound, I suddenly felt something squirming around my right leg, and at first I thought it was a mouse, but I immediately denied it, because the thing had crawled up to my leg, it was smooth, hairless, wet and sticky, and it was touching my leg inch by inch.

Yes, that's the action, touch!

It's a human hand!

I felt a bang in my head, and my whole body was about to collapse. There was a hand that I didn't know who was touching my leg, and there was a strange sound next to my head that I didn't know what was coming from, poof, puff, puff,

For a moment, I felt like I was lying in hell.

Li Xu shouted from above: "Nier, you hold me up, I'll be there soon!" ”

She shouted as she threw down a new flare, which landed five or six meters away from me, she was afraid of hitting me, so she tried her best to throw it to the right, it was really difficult for her to hang on a ladder without an arm and do such a difficult action, it was almost like acrobatics, all supported by two legs.

I choked on the strong smell of chemical combustibles from the flares, and then I poured blood mold, shaking and causing my body to sink again, and the mixture of rotten flesh and corpse fluid poured straight into my nose, and I hated to pass out immediately, and even for a second, I felt that it was better to die. But thinking about Li Xu, who was bitten by a rat on it, and could only rely on one arm to support his body, and had to pull a flare, and crawl down, and was worried about my life and death, he was anxious, and suddenly felt that he didn't even have the qualifications to pass out, even if it was purely for her, I had to hold this breath.

You must get out of here alive, otherwise all the suffering and sins along the way in front of you will be in vain, and Li Xu will be guilty, and Lao Lazy and Xiaohai don't know what the situation is.

The sticky hand that was messing around on my lap paused as the flare fell. But as soon as I coughed, it began to slide down my leg again, just touching it back and forth on that little bit of skin, occasionally pressing it lightly with one of my fingers, like an old pervert, so angry that I wanted to jump up and stomp it to pieces and fly away.

Li Xu finally came down, panting and muttering to himself in a very close place, all swearing, is it difficult to choke if you are not dead? If you're dead, won't I run away for nothing and get your fat man in? Just scolded one after another, panting and scolding, like an upgraded version of Xianglin's sister-in-law, full of anger and choked up.

She jumped down and finally landed on the ground, first with the muddy sound of a pair of feet stepping into the mud, then with a groan of pain, presumably from a broken bone. She didn't care about the pain, and walked over with one foot deep and one foot shallow. This will stop her scolding, she became trembling, and fed several times in a row, her voice was trembling. She said hey, you're not dead, are you? It's not going to kill you in such a fall, right? Hey——

I raised my right hand and beckoned to her, letting her know that I wasn't dead, but I just couldn't open my mouth, and as soon as I opened my mouth, the corpse fluid around me would pour into my mouth.

She let out a heavy sigh and said, ", it's good that you have a big life, otherwise this trip would have been in vain, and you wouldn't have been able to fish for your inheritance." ”

I scolded hard in my heart, you should hurry up and pull me out, why are you still stunned there.

She couldn't hear what I was saying, she still stood there motionless, I thought those crazy rats were back at the moment, so she pretended to be a sculpture to play, but there was no movement of rats around, in this empty pit, except for the heartbeat and breathing of the two of us, there was only the intermittent popping sound that had been by the head since I fell, and I couldn't see what Li Xu was doing with my eyes closed.

After standing for a while, she finally reached out and pulled me up and supported my body, and the first words in her ear were: "Don't open your eyes, don't open your mouth, don't get anything from your face into your body." ”

I really want to howl twice and get all the dirty words she scolded me back today. Where is this kind of nonsense, where can she explain it so solemnly, I just went crazy, lost my mind, and knew that I couldn't get carrion and corpse fluid in my mouth.

Li Xu took a few more breaths, then put my arm on my shoulder and walked forward cautiously, stopped after walking more than a dozen steps, tore off the towel tied to the wound on my right arm and wiped my face, wiped it carefully, and did not let go of it at all, especially near the eyes, nose and mouth, until I was sure that there was no residue, then took out the alcohol to carefully disinfect me, and then told me to open my eyes and coaxed me in a childish tone: "Don't lick it, there are no toxins in those things." ”

I nodded, trying to rip off all the dirty, smelly, sticky clothes on my body, but I didn't wear anything in it, so I had to pull it down and make it up.

Li Xu was really tired, but he still had to hold on, and said: "Let's go, it will take a while to get out of here, let's hurry up, maybe Xiaohai and they have gone out safely, in case they can't wait for us, they have to go back and find it, don't increase the unnecessary risk factor." ”

I nodded and nodded, after all, I raised my hand and kicked my legs, and found that my body had basically recovered its mobility, so I tried to walk to the place where I had just fallen while the flare was still on, and walked to the side of the human-shaped pit that I had smashed out, and at a glance, I understood what was going on with the intermittent popping sound near my head.

It is a man who has been skinned alive and is not yet dead.

The man was lying in blood red next to the place where I was lying just now, with his eyes wide open, looking at me obliquely, his mouth kept opening and closing and saying something, probably begging me to save him, but because the vocal cords, trachea and other parts were all broken, and gurgling blood came out as soon as he spoke, so there was not a word to say clearly, only the sound of pop and puff blood bubbles bursting.

I was standing firm, but when I saw such a miserable situation, my legs were weak and I was about to paralyze down, but fortunately, Li Xu came to hold me, hugged me like a child, and said, "Don't look, be good, don't look, there's nothing to see, don't look at it, let's go." ”

I remembered that more than four years ago in Chenjiawu, Li Xu and the others found Shi Lianjuan, who was highly decomposed but still breathing, and she still had half a breath and begged them to kill her.

After steadying for a while, Li Xu carried me away.

I still couldn't hold back, and finally I went back again.

This time I saw a filthy hand, stretching out in the same place where I was lying just now, waving it, touching it back and forth.

I don't have to guess to know that it was the hand that touched my thigh just now, because of the angle, I didn't see the rest of its body, or maybe it was covered by other stump bones or something, and it was pressed down and couldn't make a sound, so I stretched out a hand to ask for help.

At that glance before, the corner of my eye swept to the side of the skinned man There was a corpse, completely dehuman, almost all the parts were torn open by rats, the intestines were bloody and flowed out and seemed to flow to part of my body, my face was full of gnawing holes and wounds, and my eyes were hanging outside, looking hideous and distorted.

The fact that the two people were so close and the rat only bit one of them meant that the other person who had been skinned all over his body should have some toxin, and the rat did not want to eat it.

No wonder Li Xu was so nervous at the time.

We walked on a path that was only half a meter long, and there were almost corpses on both sides of the road, both animal corpses and human corpses, some of which had rotted into white bones, some of which were rotting, some of which were becoming dry corpses, some of which were saponified, like melting wax people......

In this large hole, hundreds of wooden boxes the size of coffins are stacked along the walls, which are simply coffins, but they are crudely made, spliced with thin wooden boards, and not even the gaps are treated. Su Mosen and the others put the corpses after the experiment, maybe the half-dead people, but all the useless experimental objects, into boxes and let them die, rot, and dispose of them. It can be seen that each coffin contains more than one corpse, and the liquid and corpse oil after the decomposition of the flesh overflows from the cracks in the wooden plank, condensing into suspicious shapes and colors, and I don't know how disgusting it is.

Suddenly, my mind cleared.

And, more and more clearly.

I think of the coffin of Yu Lao in Chenjiawu, many years ago, when I sent money to Su Mosen for him, he mentioned the ventilation and drainage system and wood, I think it should refer to the maintenance work here and the work of doing these wooden boxes, and what I gave at that time was part of his salary.

Su Mosen hired a carpenter from Chenjiawu to participate in part of the work at the experimental site, including the creation of these crude corpse boxes.

If you don't see this with your own eyes, you can't imagine it.

I really admire the old coffin, even in the end, he didn't mention Su Mosen half a word, honest farmer, where did he get such a big perseverance, probably because he was afraid of Su Mosen, the old immortal bastard had a terrifying energy, like a stiff and undead person, anyone who saw it would be afraid.

I also thought of Xia Dongyi's strange paintings, and suddenly I understood why he used such a form and style to present the truth in his memory.

Because in a sense, his paintings are real, and this world that we see at first glance as beautiful as singing and dancing is an illusion.

He had to deal with it with exaggerated distortion, otherwise it would be too tragic and it would be distorted.
