The mud ball came out of the deep well, he was timid and scared, squatting on the side of the well and not leaving, it seemed impossible to pass the blood book through the mud ball to move the rescuers, Yu Long could only find a way to save himself.

Yu Long remembered the vegetable cellar of his good friend Sanfat's house, his vegetable cellar did not have a ladder, and the cellar wall was full of foot sockets, stepping on the foot sockets up and down.

Yu Long got up and groped in the muddy water at the bottom of the well, and he remembered that the knife had also fallen off. As long as you find a knife, use it to dig a row of foot sockets in the wall of the well, and climb out by stepping on the foot sockets.

Yu Long's body was suddenly full of strength, and he got up and touched in the mud for a long time, and finally touched the knife.

Looking up, the sky was already dark, and through the well, you could see a few faint stars, high above, as if there were nothing; Yu Long dug up on the wall of the well in the dark.

The mud ball was attached to Yu Long under the well, lying at the mouth of the well and not leaving, at this time he heard movement under the well, thinking that Yu Long had come out, he shook his head and twisted his hips happily, and whined at the well, but only heard the rustling sound of the sand falling, and never saw Yu Long come out.

The mud ball screamed, calling to the dragon; Yu Long concentrated on digging one by one on the wall of the well.

The walls of the well are made of coarse sand and small stones, which are not very hard and can be easily dug down with a knife. Yu Long quickly dug out two foot sockets at knee and waist height; He lifted his foot and tried it, the height and width of the two foot sockets were just right, Yu Long was overjoyed, which proved that his idea was feasible, and if he kept digging, he could dig the well, and he would be saved.

Yu Long sat down and rested for a while, and after breathing evenly, he continued to dig, digging two more foot sockets on his chest and the height above his head, and after resting for a while, Yu Long dug out another foot socket where he could raise his arms.

The height of these five foot sockets is more than two meters, and it is impossible to stand at the bottom of the well to work further up, so you must kick the dug foot sockets with both feet, and buckle one foot socket with one hand to make the body close and fixed to the wall of the well, and dig with the other hand.

However, this posture is extremely unstable, and it is very difficult to dig when the knife is used; If you exert a little too much force, your body will lose your center of gravity and fall down.

Yu Long didn't dig one of his feet well, and he fell twice.

It's so frustrating! -- This kind of work exerts a lot of physical strength, and if I continue like this, I am afraid that I will not be able to dig the wellhead, and I will be tired and paralyzed first.

What to do? …… Yu Long sat at the bottom of the well, panting and thinking. Except for a knife, there were no tools in his hand, and there was nothing to think of, Yu Long rose up, humming a song in his mouth to cheer himself up, and continued to dig.

Yu Long exerted his strength to eat, digging one knife at a time, but he couldn't hold on, so he retreated to the bottom of the well to rest for a while, and then climbed up and continued to dig when he was out of breath, and repeatedly went up and down three or five times before he could dig a foot socket.

In this way, the foot sockets that have been dug up and down are repeatedly stepped on, and the sand at the edge is gradually broken and sliding, and the original stirrup-shaped foot sockets have become round, and the feet are straight and slippery when stepped on, and Yu Long can only re-trim these foot sockets, which is equivalent to continuous rework.

No matter how difficult it is, no matter how tedious it is, the desire to survive supports Yu Long, he never thought of giving up, and every time he rises to the height of a foot socket, it is a hope for him to live.

Yu Long persevered in the darkness while groping his way into the wall of the well, digging out the sand and digging to a depth where he could put the soles of his feet in.

Yu Long climbed up to dig for a while, rested for a while, and the dug sand fell to the bottom of the well, gradually piling up into a small platform, he could sit on the earth platform to rest, no longer have to soak in muddy water, and felt much more comfortable.

Yu Long was born in the countryside, grew up in the countryside, worked on farm work for many years, and cultivated a strong physique, and was one of the best axle men in the village. In their spare time, their companions played the game of "wrist wrestling", and Yu Long was always the winner, and there was no opponent in the village; In the autumn, the sack full of soybeans was more than 200 catties, and he could grab it on his shoulders by himself, walk without bending his waist and legs without trembling.

Although Yu Long's physical strength was not to be said, after most of the night's busy work, like a cup of hot water in a cold room that was gradually getting colder, Yu Long also felt that the strength of his body was disappearing, and his legs trembled after climbing up and he couldn't do it a few times, his arms were weak, and his body was sore as if his bones had been removed.

Frustration and despair spread again, and the world was grayed with smog.

Yu Long endured the soreness of his body, fought against the gloom of his emotions, gritted his teeth and persevered until the second half of the night, like a dam bursting, Yu Long's spirit and body finally collapsed. He fell down and sat at the bottom of the well, motionless like a dead man.

"Just die like this, don't bury it, save more trouble." Yu Long thought with tears in his eyes.

Yu Long felt thirsty, his lips were chapped, and his throat was smoking; Not only thirst, but excessive physical exertion requires energy replenishment, hunger is getting stronger and stronger, and there seems to be a fire burning in the stomach pouch.

Yu Long sat paralyzed at the bottom of the well, using the last bit of strength to breathe; Tears flowed down his cheeks, cold, itchy, and he couldn't wipe them away, because his body and hands were covered with mud.

In a trance, Yu Long remembered his father, for many years he couldn't figure out why he didn't go home, he had asked his mother many times, and his mother said, "Don't ask me, go ask your father." ”

His mother didn't tell him why until he was breathless, his father was a mystery, and in order to solve this mystery, Yu Long walked into the city like a wanderer.

The desire to be born can bring out the most primitive potential of the human body, and can defeat the most intense pain of the flesh and the hopelessly decadent of the spirit.

Yu Long rested for a while, like a battery that was briefly recharged, Yu Long stood up again, endured hunger, thirst, and fatigue with extraordinary endurance, gritted his teeth, used the last strength of his body, climbed up, crawled to the mouth of the well, slowly inserted the knife into the sand, digging, digging......

Every time he digs a foot socket, Yu Long is one step closer to the wellhead, and there is more hope for life, and the desire for life is inspired to support Yu Ding, life is endless, and digging is not stopped.

Time passed as always, the night slowly receded to the west, and the morning sun rose inch by inch from the eastern horizon.

The glimmer of the morning light penetrated into the well, and everything was dimly visible, much easier than groping in the dark.

Yu Long's spirits were greatly lifted, but at this time, Yu Long was already more than hearted, and his strength was insufficient, and he had to sit at the bottom of the well again, sore and weak.

Yu Long looked up at the sky illuminated by the morning light, the bottom of the well was getting brighter and brighter, and all the foot sockets he had dug up all night were presented in front of him one by one, and the highest foot socket had reached the middle of the well.

Victory is in sight, however, victory requires hard work, and victory requires perseverance.

Yu Long roared and stood up, just like a martial arts practitioner roaring to help. However, Yu Long was unsteady on his feet, his body was shaking, and he couldn't lift his sore legs after trying several times, only feeling low back pain, weak legs, and trembling hands.

Yu Long sat back on the earthen platform, leaned back on the wall of the well, and his eyes were idle in despair, he wanted to sleep for a while, maybe he could recover his strength after sleeping for a while.

Suddenly, there was the barking of a mud ball at the mouth of the well, the kind of barking that was threatened and extremely frightened. Faintly, Yu Long heard a woman's voice: "Oh, mom! Look, a puppy, ouch! - What the hell, buried dead! ”

Yu Long seemed to hear the call of heaven, and he shouted loudly with all the strength of his body: "Help!" - Help! ”
