"Fengzi, I have never done this before in my life. You should remember my kindness in the future."
Dou Sprout squatted on the ground with a painful expression, and spat a few more times after speaking.
Brother Yu asked me, "How do you feel now? Do you feel better?"
I touched the swollen wound on my heel and breathed in, "No, Brother Yu, it's useless. It hurts more than before. It felt like a needle pricking here just now. Now it's burning, as if chili oil has been applied to the wound. You
Did you eat chili?" I asked Dou Sprout.
Douyazai stood up in excitement and said angrily, "I ate so much chili pepper that I didn't even bother to drink any water! Do you mean my mouth is poisonous?"
"Haha, don't be angry. I'm just saying casually. I don't know what kind of insect bit me. I've never seen it before."
Brother Yu shook his head, "We are not biologists, so it is normal for us not to know each other. It is already dawning above. The key question now is whether Yunfeng can bear the force on your foot? After all, it is not an easy task for us to go up from here.
"
I tried on my shoes.
The heel is a stress-bearing area, and when I tried it, I found it was extremely painful.
I wasn't too worried just now. I thought it was like being stung by a scorpion and it would heal on its own after a while. But as the condition worsened, I started to get scared.
This place is isolated from the world and has been inaccessible for thousands of years. It is a completely different world. No one can say what kind of strange cave-like animals and plants there are. Like the underground cave in Guizailing, Yongzhou, that cave is far inferior to this one.
Although the depth of the cave is deep, there is a giant tadpole larger than a frog in the underground river there. I still haven’t figured out what the scientific name of that giant tadpole is.
Seeing me skipping one step at a time, Brother Yu frowned and said, "The off-road vehicle we drove before we came is still parked in the field. It's already dawn above. It's not a problem to delay it like this. There's no signal here, and the walkie-talkie doesn't work either."
It’s useless. You don’t know our current situation. Otherwise, Yunfeng, you won’t see if this will work.”
Brother Yu pointed at the two large stone sculptures of cultural relics. "You stay here and watch. Douyazai and I will go up first with the equipment, and then we will lower the rope to pull you up."
Douyazai nodded, "I think Brother Yu's method is okay. Although it's laborious, it's better than wasting time here, and I always feel that"
Douyazai looked around and muttered, "I have an indescribable feeling. A man's sixth sense tells me that something is wrong here. I get scared when I think of those urns that are many years old."
After discussing the plan, Brother Yu and Bean Sprouts carried their bags and went up first. It was estimated that it would take them at least an hour and a half to climb up. At this time, I was the only one left in the huge underground space.
I sat on the ground with bare feet, listening to the sound of dripping water in my ears, and kept the flashlight in my hand turned on.
I held up the flashlight and took pictures everywhere, mainly observing the corners.
"Hello!"
"Is there anyone?"
No answer, nothing.<
br>
I breathed a sigh of relief and hopped on one foot to the pool. I heard that the natural hot spring water has sterilizing and disinfecting properties, so I wanted to soak my feet.
"call"
The moment my feet soaked in the pool, they felt warm and comfortable.
I leaned against the edge of the pool and took out my lighter and lit a cigarette. The pain in my feet and the fatigue in my body were immediately relieved by most of it.
I pulled my backpack over and wanted to get some water, but I couldn't find it. Then I remembered that the water was in Brother Yu's bag.
Although I was soaking my feet, as the saying goes, I don't think I am dirty, so I picked up the water and took a sip.
After entering the mouth, it first feels bitter and slightly salty, and then it has a hint of sweetness.
It didn't taste good, but I couldn't say how bad it was. I just took a few sips and stopped drinking.
Time goes by like this minute by minute.
"Yunfeng."
"who!"
"Who called me?!"
Suddenly a woman's voice called my name next to my ear. I was very nervous and quickly raised my flashlight.
"Yunfeng."
Another sound.
The next second, bubbles suddenly bubbled in the middle of the pool, and a vague figure slowly stood up from the water.
I opened my mouth wide and stared blankly at this scene, so shocked that I couldn't speak.
This is a woman, dressed in a white shirt, with long wet hair hanging on her shoulders, snow-white skin, and pure facial features, she looks like a fairy.
I rubbed my eyes hard.
"Mamajane?"
"How could this not be true? This can't be true."
With a smile on her face, Marjane slowly swam toward me with her hands open, and soon she stopped in front of me, very close to me.
Her hand slowly reached out and held my face, but I didn't hide.
I looked at her so close with red eyes.
Her hands were cold, but her skin felt real and soft.
She looked at me with gentle eyes and said, "Yunfeng, it's me, I miss you."
I took a deep breath, sniffed hard, and stared at her for a full two minutes.
As I looked at it, my eyes became moist.
"This is not true. You are not her and she cannot come back. You are an illusion. It is all an illusion!"
Ma Zhen's eyes were gentle and she said, "Yunfeng, it's not important whether it's true or not. What's important is that we saw each other again today and we can be together again, isn't it?"
She held my cheeks with both hands, and slowly traced my lips with her slender white fingers.
"cloud
Feng, I miss you so much, and now there is an opportunity in front of me. As long as you say yes, we can be together in the future, and no one can separate us."
Seeing me stunned, Marjane grabbed my collar and tried to guide me to follow her towards the deep water.
I removed her hand and gently took her into my arms.
"Marjane."
"I have always wanted to go back to the tribe to see you, but I didn't dare to go. I never had the courage to go to your grave. I know that you are an illusion in my mind, but it doesn't matter. I am very happy to be with you.
Talking is better than any treasure I can get."
"Maybe it's because I've been poisoned, maybe it's because of the smell of sulfur here, maybe it's because I just drank the water in the pool, whatever it is, it doesn't matter."
Ma Zhen's expression changed and she said, "Yunfeng, it seems that you no longer love me in your heart. Could it be that you would have refused to save me in the first place?"
"I love you! I always love you!"
"I didn't just ignore death! I didn't have time to save you! You don't know how uncomfortable I felt during that time!"
The tenderness in Marzhen's eyes disappeared, replaced by a look of frost. ??
"Yunfeng, it's all your fault, my death is all your fault. If you didn't come to our tribe, if you didn't come to me, if you didn't encourage me to oppose my mother's escape from the tribe, then nothing would have happened.
"
"do not talk"
"Marjane, I beg you! Stop talking."
I lowered my head and held my head in pain.
This is the deepest secret hidden in my heart. Yes, if I hadn't encouraged her to have the courage to oppose my family members to go to the big city with me, then nothing would have happened.
"None of this is true, you are a figment of my imagination." I repeated to myself.
"Yunfeng, do you think I look good?"
I looked up.
She smiled and reached out to untie her clothes, revealing her graceful white body, and casually threw the white lining aside.
"Want to fuck me? You've always wanted to, right?"
She came over and wanted to touch me.
I grabbed her hand.
My eyes were red, and I gritted my teeth and said, "I don't care what you are, just fuck me! You are simply insulting my Marjane."
"roll!"
I shouted loudly, closed my eyes and punched straight ahead.
When I opened my eyes, I saw the flashlight dropped to the ground, and the surroundings were pitch black. Only the mist-filled hot spring pool in front of me and the endless darkness around me.
I picked up the flashlight in despair, unable to calm down for a long time.
Everything that just happened was too real, so real that it made me wonder if I was still immersed in hallucinations.
> I raised my hand and slapped myself.
The clear pain woke me up.
I frowned and looked at the hot spring pool in front of me.
It seems that it is probably a problem with the water. Maybe there is heavy sulfur or other substances in the water? People will see hallucinations in a short time after drinking it. The head has told me before that there is a pool in the mountains of Yunnan called "
"Ayahuasca", drinking it will cause hallucinations.
Similar phenomena in reality, I have also heard of the Dalongdong water of the Miao people in western Hunan. (The Dalongdong water in western Hunan was later even featured on TV. The protagonist was a little girl named Ganoderma lucidum. She said that after drinking the water, she saw her sister who had been dead for many years.
, and also saw the legendary Luohua Cave God. Seeing her beauty, the Cave God wanted her to stay and serve him. It was her dead sister who saved her.)
Although these are just the little girl's self-narration, and the authenticity is yet to be tested, the program team took the water source and brought it back to the laboratory for testing. The test results were shocking. They said that the calcium and magnesium ions were hundreds of times higher than normal water, and people drank it.
It would cause hallucinations in a short period of time. Later, the water source was blocked by the local government.
In other words, the situation I just encountered may be the same.
After figuring out what was going on, I looked at the hot spring pool, feeling shocked and scared.
At this moment, a flashlight suddenly shone from behind, and I quickly turned around.
"Holy crap! I thought you were going up! Why are you coming down again!"
It's bean sprouts.
Dou Yazai said anxiously, "Fengzi! I just realized that my amulet was lost when I was halfway up!"
"What amulet?"
"It's the one Panpan gave me! You know! That amulet has saved me several times before! I guess I accidentally pulled it at the altar when we just ran away!"
"Hurry up Fengzi! You go back with me and look for it! You must get it back! Otherwise Panpan will definitely beat me to death if he finds out!"
"etc!"
"come here."
Bean Sprouts took a step forward.
I slapped him across the face, and Dou Sprout covered his face and was stunned.
I slapped him twice again.
"Why the hell did you hit me!"
"Let me see if you are hallucinating."
"Fantasy chicken feathers! You are a fucking illusion!"
Because I couldn't be sure for a while whether he was real, I frowned and said, "Ya Zai, let me tell you something. There is more than two thousand yuan sewn in your pillow, right? I saw it accidentally last time, and I spent all of it."
Yes, I’m going to buy some clothes.”
"Fuck! What the hell are you talking about!"
Dou Sprout cursed loudly and immediately stretched out his hand to strangle my neck.
I was choked so hard that I couldn't breathe, so I pushed him away.
