Section 20, The River of Ten Thousand Bones (Part 1) Today

Update time: 2012-08-10

In the end, we only dug up a set of neatly folded clothes. There were no corpses! Just like we buried the tomb of the botanists!

Ye Yi didn't give up and continued to turn to the second one. The result was the same.

Ye Yi, who gave up, sat next to a grave, inserted the hilt on the ground, raised his head and said, "Yang Guang, from the moment the botanist's corpse melted, I had no fantasies in my heart."

I squatted beside Ye Yi, patted his shoulder, and said in a calm voice as calm as possible: "Ye Yi, what you have to do now is to take us out alive."

"Haha, I know! I will do my best." Ye Yi said.

I smiled and said, "Ye Yi, I have always believed that you can do it."

"Do you really believe me?" Ye Yi said.

I said, "Of course, if I can't trust you, I won't get here with you."

Ye Yi closed his eyes, was silent for a while, suddenly stood up, and asked me condescendingly: "Do you really believe me?"

I raised my head, squinted my eyes, and said, "Believe!"

"We keep moving forward! If we retreat now, we will definitely die. If we can find the answer to the mystery, we still have a chance to survive!" Ye Yi said affirmatively.

I asked, "Why do you say that?"

Ye Yi said: "I believe that the two people who lived in the end must be Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao. After so many people died, they did not look back. This means that there must be greater danger in looking back! I even suspect that this is the grave that died after turning back. We chase this and look for it, and we can find it. Even if they die, it will leave us some clues. I don't believe that with the means and knowledge of Uncle Gao and Aunt, we will die so easily."

I stood up, looked at Ye Yi seriously, and said, "Then go find it! Ye Yi, this glimmer of life must be seized. You have never disappointed me!"

Ye Yi pulled out the hilt knife inserted on the ground and held it back in his palm. His voice became heroic from the original loneliness. The hoarse voice, at this time, seemed to give people a different kind of courage and strength to support me, or the confidence that we were almost about to collapse: "Let's go and see the river water. Uncle Gao and others even buried places are far away from the river water."

"Okay!" I suddenly felt very passionate. After Ye Yi returned to his cold glacier look, I suddenly felt that my backbone had returned! My previous worries and fear seemed to disappear in this moment: "Let's go and see what kind of thing it is!"

The passion is the passion, and we two still walked slowly towards the river carefully.

As the sound of the stream became louder, the thick fog spreading in front of us gradually became thinner, and the water waves reflecting the luster of the thick fog appeared in our field of vision.

What caught our eye was a small river that was not very wide, with rapid water flowing and making crisp sounds.

hiss……

Standing by the river, Ye Yi and I were buzzing and numb. This may be the most terrifying thing I have ever seen! The fear made me dare not speak anymore. Standing here, neither of us dared to make any moves.

Dang!

The mountain-cutting knife in Ye Yi's hand fell to the ground, making a crisp sound. The atmosphere of fear had just been dispelled by Ye Yi's passion, and it was only a hundred meters away, and it was condensed in our hearts again.

Looking at the river, I twisted my neck, and my neck unconsciously made a creaking sound: "Ye...yi... have we read it wrong?"

In the clear riverbed, countless bones are sunk in it, and it seems that you can see hideous faces. Can anyone imagine that this entire riverbed is made up of bones? They are densely spread at the bottom of the river, and the clear and thorough stream water shows their truest side in front of us without any concealment. The river water is clean, without a trace of mud, no water plants, no creatures. There is only the sound of dead stream water. At this time, this sound is no longer the smell of joy. The rustling sounds filled our ears are like a collection of negative words that describe negatively.

Dingdengdengdengdeng...

Ye Yi and I retreated frantically, and didn't even dare to possess the mountain knife to pick it up. We retreated until we were close to the bushes before turning around in panic and running backwards.

Running to the place where we opened the gap, we saw Fatty and Professor Yun, and Sui Xiang and the other three were waiting for us. Seeing us back, Fatty asked first: "How is it? Is there no problem with water?"

Ye Yi and I calmed down the fear in our hearts and adjusted our breathing at the same time. Ye Yicai said: "Fatty, take people here to wait, don't leave anywhere! Don't go to the river to get water. I want to go alone with Yang Guang."

The fat man frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?"

My breathing was evenly adjusted, and the interface said: "Brother Fat, the riverbed of the entire river is full of corpses, and it is a riverbed made of countless corpses."

hiss……

Zhao Lei and the other two were as shocked as we saw it, and at the same time, they took a breath: "This, this, is this true?" The fat man asked with his lips trembling.

I nodded.

The fat man said tremblingly: "Have you ever heard such a legend?"

"What's the saying?"

"The Wan Gu River, the Wan Gu River, is not enough to survive. A living person crosses the river and becomes a bone, while a dead person crosses the river but a dead person crosses the river and a bone." The fat man said in a low voice, his voice hoarse and almost like Ye Yi.

Ye Yi frowned. Obviously he had never heard of such a legend. But I asked: "What is the purpose of this legend? Where should this Wangu River be?"

"I can only say that this is the place where a god was born in ancient times. This proverb says that if you want to see this god, you must worship ten thousand people at the god's residence in order to see the god."

"According to this legend, isn't our place the residence of gods?" I said in horror. No folk proverbs or legends are groundless, especially in our business. Every proverb has an unusual meaning behind it, even related to life and death.

"What we see is a stream, not a river." Ye Yi suddenly said.

The fat man's facial features were squeezed together, and he took a deep breath and said, "Ye Yi, what should we do now?" He no longer entangled whether it was Wangu River or whether it was the stream.

Ye Yi said: "Yang Guang and I continue walking forward. You are waiting here."

"What if someone dies again?" Professor Yun asked.

"Even if you die, you must endure it. Don't retreat. Wait for a while and maybe you can still have hope of living. If you retreat... you will really die." Ye Yi said affirmatively.

"How can you be sure?" Sui Xiang asked.

Ye Yi glanced at him and had no intention of explaining.

And I think we are all people in a team no matter what. If we don’t explain, we can’t convince the archaeological team to wait for us here. So I explained: “We found some empty graves not far away. There were only clothes and no bones. However, there were two missing. Ye Yi judged that there were still people who had lived and did not die together. He even judged that they died when they retreated. Therefore, we cannot retreat! We must have to go forward.

After a pause, I continued: Professor Yun, you have seen it too. People are in panic now. Following us is not a good choice. If it is safe before, Gao Nier’s parents’ archaeological team would not return before. This means that the front is even more dangerous."

"Then...what if you can't find a way out? Or what if you go out by yourself after finding a way out?" Sui Xiang asked at this time.

In fact, the archaeological team is quite sad. They are not like us, they are all in one mind. The archaeological team itself has its own faction, whether it is dependence or unified management. Among the six people, one is a botanist, a survival expert, and an archaeological team. These people have completely become the only one who fights on their own. Survival expert Sui Xiang trusts us more than the archaeological team. The botanists are simply the first to die. Now we ask them to stay here. As if waiting for death to come, facing unknown death threats.
