Xiang Haiqing raised her eyes and glanced at An Zimo, but at this moment An Zimo didn't know what he was thinking, he was completely trapped in his own world.
The two of them sat by the fire for a long time. When Xiang Haiqing thought that the two of them were silent forever, An Zimo finally spoke.
"I'll take you down the mountain tomorrow, and you hurry back the way you came."
After saying that, he lay down on the sleeping bag spread beside him and fell asleep with his back to Xiang Haiqing.
Xiang Haiqing was stunned for a moment and then realized that he was trying to drive her away. "I don't understand, you came here because you wanted to, so why are you trying to drive me away now? Is this fun? You aroused
I wanted to know my interest in my life experience, but you shouted stop at the most critical moment, An Zimo, don't you think your behavior is excessive?"
He stared angrily at the back and said what was in his heart in one breath, but An Zimo didn't speak from the beginning to the end. He was angry with Xiang Haiqing. You couldn't communicate with him normally about this piece of wood.
Early the next morning, Xiang Haiqing heard the sound of packing things while she was still in her deep sleep. She suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, and saw An Zimo packing his things.
"What are you doing?" Hai Qing asked him curiously.
An Zimo paused for a moment, then slowly turned around to look at her, "Pack your things, I'll take you down now."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Haiqing stood up and walked to An Zimo aggressively, raised her head and stared at him, "An Zimo, who do you think you are? Do you mean what you say? I said I will follow.
If you go in, you have no right to ask me to go back."
An Zimo's eyes were deep, and the blue eyes radiated a cold light. "It seems that I have no obligation to take you in."
Xiang Haiqing's eyes widened. This An Zimo actually imitated her in cheating. "You----An Zimo, I'm going to follow you in. You can't leave me behind. You were the one who forced me to come here."
Yes, if you want to throw me down now, there is no way."
Xiang Haiqing started to show off, she put her hands on her hips and glared angrily at An Zimo.
After waiting for a long time, An Zimo stopped talking, picked up his backpack, turned around and walked towards the depths of the cave.
"Where are you going?" Xiang Haiqing was stunned for a moment and then realized that he was heading into the cave.
"Enter." An Zimo replied coldly, and with a smile of success on his lips, he quickly picked up his backpack and ran after An Zimo.
"Wait for me."
The two of them walked towards the deep cave one after another. They walked for about two hours. Xiang Haiqing felt that the mountaineering clothes he was wearing were already sweating. "An Zimo, why does it seem to get hotter the further you go inside?"
Woolen cloth?"
An Zimo turned around and glanced at her without saying a word. He stuck out his pink tongue to Hai Qing and obediently stopped complaining and continued to follow her into the deep cave.
At the beginning, the two sides of the cave were very spacious, probably able to accommodate five or six grown men side by side. However, as we went to the back, the cave became very narrow.
And when inside, Xiang Haiqing always felt a sense of depression and uneasiness. This seems to be scientifically supported. Some experts have shown that in a dark and oppressive place, people always feel a sense of depression and dullness, and for a long time
Most people living in such an environment will be overly frightened and faint, or have hallucinations, commit suicide or go crazy.
Thinking of this possibility, Xiang Haiqing trotted to keep up with An Zimo. She stretched out her hand and took An Zimo's arm, and An Zimo was forced to stop.
"When can we arrive? Why is it so narrow while walking?"
"This is the way this road is. If you are scared now, you can choose to turn back."
Seeing An Zimo's cold eyes, Xiang Haiqing felt depressed, "I'm scared. It's dark everywhere here, and you don't care about me. Wouldn't I be even more scared if I walked back alone?"
Hearing her complaint, An Zimo was helpless, "I told you to go back before I came here."
"I will not go back." Xiang Haiqing said very firmly. She waited for An Zimo to raise his head in disbelief. "Since this place has something to do with me, I will never give up halfway."
An Zimo smiled and said, "Okay, since you want to follow, don't say you're afraid."
He no longer looked at Hai Qing, turned around and continued walking forward. He stamped his feet angrily and trotted after Hai Qing.
The two continued to walk forward. At this time, it was almost impossible for two people to line up side by side in the cave. They could only have one person in front and one behind. The most difficult time was that the height of the cave was now less than 1.0 meters. An Zimo was taller.
Almost 1, even Xiang Haiqing's height is almost 1. Such a cave requires both of them to bend down before they can move forward.
Just like this, Hai Qing always forgot the height here, her waist was sore and numb, and she accidentally hit her head while thinking about standing up.
After a while, her head felt numb and painful. Just as the two of them were walking more and more difficultly, the flashlight in An Zimo's hand suddenly went out, and the surroundings instantly entered boundless darkness.
Xiang Haiqing didn't react and was startled. "An Zimo, what are you doing?" Just when she was about to ask him to turn on the light, suddenly a black shadow rushed toward her, followed closely by Xiang Haiqing, who could feel herself
She entered a cold embrace, but the familiar breath still took her time to settle down.
At the same time, a big hand tightly covered her mouth as she continued to speak. At this moment, Xiang Haiqing looked upward, while An Zimo stared behind them.
Xiang Haiqing followed An Zimo's eyes, and when she saw the scene in front of her, she was so frightened that she was completely stunned. At this time, An Zimo buried his face in her ear and said in a very soft voice, "Hold your breath."
Xiang Haiqing still remembers that at this moment, she saw a head crawling out of An Zimo's body. The head was covered with black hair. She couldn't see his face, but she heard him constantly speaking from his mouth.
The voice sounded like a woman's.
And this woman was facing him right now, crawling on An Zimo's back.
Under such panic, Xiang Haiqing really didn't know what else she could do besides exclaiming. Just when she was about to open her mouth to shout, a cold lips kissed her.
Xiang Haiqing opened her eyes wide and thought in the dark that An Zimo secretly kissed her in such a dangerous situation? Is he crazy?
But then she realized that the purpose of his doing this was that she would stop shouting if he blocked her mouth.
At this time, the woman crawling on An Zimo's back sniffed around for a while, but didn't seem to find what she was looking for. She crossed An Zimo's back and continued to climb up in front of him. However, she never pressed the button from the beginning to the end.
Hai Qing.
Hai Qing had been hiding in An Zimo's arms. They watched the guy go away. Xiang Haiqing and An Zimo's heads turned away. Just when she was about to take a deep breath, she noticed that a similar figure appeared on An Zimo's back.
Her head was covered with long hair, and this time half of her face was exposed. Although the surroundings were dark at this time, people can slowly adapt to the darkness in extreme darkness.
So in the blur, she saw an extremely terrifying face. There was only dry and shrunken flesh on her face, and the rest were a few black holes, and those black holes seemed to have great suction power, which made people look at it.
It was slowly settled on the spot.
This time Xiang Haiqing learned from the past, she didn't dare to shout, she could only curl herself up in An Zimo's arms as much as possible. Just like this, one mummy crawled over, and another one came out. Xiang Haiqing was really
When she couldn't hold it in anymore, she could only exhale gently and take a slow breath. During this time, she could realize how luxurious and beautiful it is for people to breathe the air of nature.
After about a dozen mummies passed by, An Zimo no longer appeared on his back. Seeing An Zimo's eyes returned to normal, Xiang Haiqing finally let go of the fear in his heart and exhaled happily.
"Why are there so many of these things here?" she asked him in as low a voice as possible,
"I don't know, maybe this is the entrance and their home."
"Old nest?" Oh my god, if these mummies are home if they continue walking, how can she come out alive?
At this time, An Zimo had already stood up, and Xiang Haiqing stood up immediately. She patted the dust on her body and looked at An Zimo. At this time, he had already turned on the flashlight in his hand again, and the surrounding light returned to light.
"Are you sure there is no one in front of you? Will turning on the light now attract them?"
An Zimo knew that Xiang Haiqing must be extremely scared at this time, so he reached out and took her hand, "Follow me."
Although she didn't hear the answer she wanted to know, she could feel the familiar warmth of An Zimo's palm, and her heart gradually calmed down. Maybe he wasn't very clear about some of her questions.
The two of them continued walking, and in the end the cave became wider again, but it didn't seem to have the sultry atmosphere just now, instead there was a hint of coolness, and Xiang Haiqing heard the sound of running water not far away.
.
Is there a mountain spring in front?
An Zimo seemed to have noticed the anomaly in front of him. The two of them walked over side by side. When they reached their destination, they saw the scene here.
I saw that things here forked and turned into a four-way fork. There are caves that continue to extend in four directions, and what crosses them is a branch of mountain spring water. The mountain spring water is formed from here and flows down the mountain.
Xiang Haiqing suddenly remembered that mummy. Maybe she was washed down along the river here.
"Where are we going?"
An Zimo walked to the water's edge and knelt down to take a look, then stood up and walked towards Hai Qing, "Let's go straight and cross this water vein. The water here is not deep, it is probably just up to our waist."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's get going." Xiang Haiqing didn't think much at all. She felt that the width of the water vein in front of her was only about ten meters, and it only took a minute to walk from here to the other side.
But when she was about to go into the water, An Zimo pulled her back and said, "Let me go down first, and you follow me."
Xiang Haiqing glanced at him in confusion. She hadn't seen him so cautious in the deep cave just now. Why did he care about it when he reached the safe boundary?
"Okay, you go ahead and I'll follow you."
An Zimo nodded, slung his backpack across his chest, turned around and asked Xiang Haiqing to follow his instructions. Although Haiqing was puzzled, he still obeyed.
After getting ready, An Zimo walked down first. He turned around and reached out to hold Hai Qing's hand. The two of them entered the water one after another. When Xiang Haiqing entered the water, he felt a biting feeling of ice on his legs. This mountain
The spring water was very cold, and as soon as she stepped into the water, she felt her body tightening unconsciously.
Shivering, Hai Qing walked behind An Zimo step by step towards the depths. When they were about to reach the middle, An Zimo suddenly stopped.
"What are you doing, how------"
Before Xiang Haiqing finished speaking, bubbles suddenly appeared in the water, and the water continued to roll. When Xiang Haiqing knew that they were in trouble, a tail that looked like armor swept towards them.
With quick eyes and quick hands, An Zimo pulled Xiang Haiqing back a step and dodged the guy's attack. The other guy didn't seem to be discouraged, and he sank into the water again. This time, An Zimo was also ready. When he just pulled out
When the knife was struck, the water rolled again, and then a bloody mouth came directly towards the two of them.
An Zimo suddenly pushed Xiang Haiqing back, and then he slashed at the guy in front of him. It was an adult crocodile about six or seven meters long. At this time, its bloody mouth was aimed directly at An Zimo's head.
Come, An Zimo took this opportunity and slashed the crocodile into its tongue with an astonishing speed. When the crocodile rolled in the water in pain, he quickly swam behind the crocodile's tail, climbed directly to its head from the tail, and then
A series of thrusts into the crocodile's head.
The crocodile continued to resist following An Zimo's attacks. It was extremely calm at first and now is struggling to its death. It seemed to be surprised by the strength of its opponent.
When about ten minutes passed, the crocodile in the water stopped struggling and its body gradually sank into the water. At this time, An Zimo suddenly stood up from the water, and Xiang Haiqing was stunned on the spot, not fully digesting what was happening before him.
Oh, An Zimo has already quickly dealt with such an adult crocodile.
But thinking about those giant pythons a while ago, it seems that these things are really nothing to him.
At this time, the surrounding water had turned blood red, but it was soon washed away by the flowing water behind it. An Zimo walked up to Xiang Haiqing, held her hand, and walked quickly to the other side of the cave.
Both of them were soaked to the skin, and after walking almost non-stop throughout the day, they both stopped at the same time when they reached the other side of the cave.
An Zimo took out the smokeless stove he was carrying, added charcoal and lit it. After a while, the temperature around him rose. The two sat around the stove to dry their clothes and rest in silence.
Xiang Haiqing took out compressed biscuits, bread and water. The two of them ate some and then closed their eyes to rest.
After waiting for a while, when Hai Qing felt that her body had gained some relief, she said, "Why are there such big crocodiles in such a shallow river?"
An Zimo slowly opened his eyes and stared at the water that was gradually returning to calm not far away. "Everything here exists beyond nature, so it's not surprising to encounter anything."
Yes, Xiang Haiqing did not continue to ask, which of everything here is normal? There are so many giant pythons, any one of them can break the Guinness record, and the mother snake is not to mention it.
Next are the savages, and here are the mummies and crocodiles. What will be waiting for them behind?
Neither of them continued talking. At this moment, Xiang Haiqing seemed to feel that her life was really insignificant. She felt a deep sense of powerlessness, and she didn't know whether she was blindly searching for her own memories.
For what reason, maybe, when she regains her memory, all the original peace will be completely disrupted.
"Do you want to continue walking?" An Zimo turned his head and stared at Xiang Haiqing.
At this time, Xiang Haiqing could only smile bitterly, "Is there any other choice? I may not be able to handle any of those mummies in the back. If I go back, won't I be seeking death?"
"No, I can send you back to the woods. According to Nangong Yue's character, he will never let you be in danger easily."
Hearing Nangong Yue's name, Xiang Haiqing's heart became extremely soft, but then she seemed to start to worry again. An Zimo was right. With Nangong Yue's character, he would never leave her behind.
-----Will he come too?
If that's the case, it would be really dangerous. An Zimo's reach is well known, and following him is a guarantee of life, but Nangong Yue is just an ordinary person, how could he come here?
Thinking of this possibility, Xiang Haiqing turned pale with fright. An Zimo saw this and his expression darkened.
"Don't worry too much. I don't think he will come here alone. After all, Ryan wants to take you back."
No, Xiang Haiqing was still worried. She couldn't let anything happen to Nangong Yue because of her. She grabbed An Zimo's hands and said, "How about we go back now? Don't continue. This will not be good for any of us."
Okay, you are An Zimo, and I am Xiang Haiqing, shouldn’t we live a good life in this world?”
An Zimo looked at her and gave a helpless smile, "You can be Xiang Haiqing, but I can't be An Zimo. There are some things that may be best that you never know, but now I can only tell you, even if we go back you
We may not be able to see him, because the caves here are spatially dislocated, that is to say, there are many similar caves here, and maybe our way back has already become a different one."
Xiang Haiqing was completely shocked and speechless by An Zimo's words. The space is dislocated? What is this concept?
She seemed to be going crazy and held An Zimo's hand and wouldn't let go. "Do you have any other ideas? Really?"
An Zimo shook his head quietly, "No, the only way is to go to the destination. Only there, if he really comes alive, you can meet."
Xiang Haiqing was like a thunderbolt. If Nangong Yue really came, would he be able to reach his destination alive? What are the chances of this happening?
Thinking of that possibility, Xiang Haiqing's heart suddenly hit rock bottom.
"Nothing is absolute. Don't underestimate Nangong Yue. Maybe you have never really understood him."
After finishing speaking, An Zimo stood up. He arranged his backpack and put it on his back. Then he looked down at Hai Qing and said, "Let's go. Only if you get there quickly can we know whether he is safe."
Xiang Haiqing's eyes slowly became firm, and it seemed that she didn't care much about life and death. At this time, she knew very well that if something happened to Nangong Yue, she would not live alone.
With this thought, Xiang Haiqing immediately stood up, carrying her backpack and following An Zimo forward.
The road ahead is very flat, the cave is wide, and the temperature has gradually returned to the warmth it was when we first entered the cave, and there are signs of gradually warming up.
In this warm temperature, the two of them slowly dried their damp clothes by the natural temperature.
This time, Xiang Haiqing could no longer care whether she was tired or not. There was only one goal in her eyes, which was the destination mentioned by An Zimo.
Finally, when the two of them walked for about a day and a night, the bottomless cave finally came to an end.
But looking at the surrounding caves filled with stalagmites, there was nothing out of the ordinary.
"Don't tell me the destination is this stalagmite cave, right?"
Xiang Haiqing followed An Zimo around and found nothing unusual. She sat down on a stone next to her in frustration. However, as soon as she sat on the stone, a stone door suddenly appeared in the cave.
An Zimo looked around hurriedly. The front of the stone door was the stalagmites, and the back was the surface of the stone. Such a stone door should be made from local materials. Firstly, it was convenient, but the most important thing was probably for concealment.
There are many stones here, and the stone Xiang Haiqing chose to sit on just now is not eye-catching. It is completely unexpected that this ordinary stone is the mechanism that opens the cave.
The two hurriedly walked to the door of the room. An Zimo looked inside and made sure there was no danger before walking in, followed closely by Xiang Haiqing.
When they entered the stone door, the temperature suddenly rose very high. Only then did Xiang Haiqing notice the sobriety inside. She turned on the flashlight in her hand and looked around. This was a secret room that had been carved by people.
The secret room is a bit forced, but in fact it is mostly a natural cave.
But there are some daily utensils placed here. The clay pots, tables and chairs look like they were left over from ancient times, so ancient people should have lived here.
There is a water pool near the right, and green smoke is constantly coming out of the water pool. This also confirms Hai Qing's idea that the bottom of the mountain must be close to a volcano.
When Xiang Haiqing planned to get closer to the hot spring to have a look, she was attracted by a row of characters next to it. She walked over curiously. There were two rows of ancient characters on it, which she didn't recognize at all.
And when she continued to look down, she suddenly took a step back in fright. An Zimo was always watching the situation on her side. Seeing that she kept backing up in fright, he followed her.
Only then did he realize why Xiang Haiqing acted so strangely. He saw a dry skeleton leaning under the two rows of writing.
The skeleton was in a semi-lying position, with the body sitting on the ground and the back leaning against the wall. It seemed that he had been prepared for death.
