"Lao Cao!" I couldn't help shouting, and quickly took out the flashlight from my body and turned it on.
"Don't come over! Go back!" Cao Shi's voice came from below, very urgent.
This is a small pit, not particularly deep. When I turned on the flashlight and looked down, I saw a piece of sand. Cao Shi fell into the sand, and his legs were immediately submerged in it. Look further.
, I found that the sand was flowing slowly.
"The top is not strong! Go back!" Cao Shi seemed to be frozen in the sand. He didn't dare to move except talking. In such sand, the more he struggled, the faster and deeper he would sink.
I immediately felt extremely dangerous. I have heard people talk about such a sand pit more than once, and I have personally experienced it. The sand is mixed with stones. Without the help of others, the person who falls into it will be very vulnerable on his own.
Difficult to escape.
"Lao Cao! Come up!" I panicked all of a sudden, lying on the edge, reaching out towards Cao Shi, trying to pull him. But the distance between us was more than three meters, and we couldn't reach him at all. I took my hand back and hurriedly
I was looking for something I could use, no backpack, no rope.
Cao Shi's expression was also extremely nervous. As the flowing sand got farther and farther away, he gradually moved towards the center of the sand pit. But he had no choice but to try his best to stay still. I took it off as soon as I took it off.
The clothes on my body were torn into strips, formed into a rope and thrown down. Cao Shi stretched out his hand and pulled the rope, and I pulled him on. But one of my legs couldn't use any strength and was very weak.
The rope between us got tighter and tighter, and I really felt like I couldn't support myself. Every time Cao Shi pulled the rope, he dragged my body closer to the edge of the pit. I lay on the ground and couldn't bear the strength, so I reluctantly stood up.
I pulled the rope hard and dragged him backwards. Even though I used all my strength, it was not enough to pull Cao Shi out of the sand pit.
Bang!
The very tight rope suddenly broke in the middle. I lost my center of gravity and rolled and fell out. My left leg was hit several times and it hurt terribly, but I gritted my teeth and said nothing, and then
After returning to the pit, Cao Shi was also very embarrassed. The sand almost covered his lower abdomen.
"Old Cao! Quick! Connect the rope!" I straightened the broken rope and threw it down again. But in this short period of time, Cao Shi's expression became much calmer, and he did not reach out to catch the rope.
"Master Tian, no, you can't save me. Maybe it will hurt you, so I'll bring you down too." Cao Shi may have seen that the edge of the pit is not strong. If I insist on saving him, I may
There will be an unmanageable situation, and I will probably fall along with it.
"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry!" I also knew that I couldn't save him, but I couldn't just watch him fall in.
Human nature, the most primitive nature, may have no possibility of change. This nature will fade and hide deep, but it will not disappear.
"Master Tian, listen to me." Cao Shi licked his chapped lips and said, "If you understand it, it's actually like that. Living is not easy, and dying is not heavy."
"Hurry up and tie the rope!" I tried my best to crawl forward again, but a piece of stone on the edge of the pit fell downwards, and I had to shrink back. This was only a step away, but suddenly I was
I feel further away from Cao Shi.
"I remember telling you before that it is common for people to get rich overnight or die overnight after entering this industry." Cao Shi seemed to be petrified, staying in the sand, letting the flowing yellow sand drown him little by little.
The lower abdomen: "You said that Ma Dad is dead. In fact, I envy him. Once it's over, I no longer have to think about who deserves it and who I'm sorry for."
"Old Cao! Come up!"
"Master Tian, I have been in a difficult situation since you left Jiangbei." Cao Shi ignored my words and continued: "I have to listen to Master Ba, but I can't harm you. Do you know, sometimes I really
I want to f**k him to death, so I feel that death is clean..."
"Old Cao!" I followed his words and couldn't help but think of the past. I remembered that he was seriously injured in Bantuo and was half dead. I remembered that he was slapped hard by me at the seven-lane fence. I remembered that he killed the man who killed the old man and let him go without permission.
As I left, I remembered that after he told me what he knew, he went back to die peacefully...
I have doubted Cao Shi countless times and felt that he was unclean, but now I think about it, can he be sorry for me in the slightest? He has not, he has always lived in the cracks, and his life is even more difficult and tiring than mine. He
Like Ma Dad, he is absolutely loyal to the old man, but this kind of loyalty challenges the bottom line of his own conscience. This kind of difficult choice is really painful.
"I have no father or mother. Only the parents of the twins are still there. Master Tian, I believe you can survive." Cao Shi said slowly: "Promise me something. If you can, take care of them for me. Don't give me anything."
They give you money and just take a look."
"Come up!" I became more and more anxious, because Cao Shi was slowly buried in the sand to his chest: "If you don't come up, I will jump down and pull you! You know what I am like! You miss the twins' parents! You know
How did Gemini die? He was sent to hell by the old man!"
"What!" Cao Shi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at me in disbelief, because in everyone's knowledge, Cao Shuang was killed by Xu Wanting's people, including me.
.Without the help of fragments, I would never have known this.
"Get the fuck up first!" I threw the rope to him again.
"It doesn't matter. No matter how the twins died, I have nothing to say. If he was really executed by Master Ba, it proves that he did something wrong."
The light in Cao Shi's eyes dimmed again. At this moment, I suddenly felt that his heart was completely dead and he no longer cared about anything. No matter who killed Cao Shuang, it no longer mattered.
"I have to jump down and pull you out, don't you? Lao Cao, you think I'm kidding you! Come up here! It's too late!" I felt anxious and angry, and I really had the urge to jump down and pull him out.
"Master Tian!" Cao Shi suddenly pulled out his hand from the sand, holding a dagger in his hand: "Don't move."
Cao Shi put the dagger on the artery in his neck and looked at me. Tears welled up in his eyes and began to flow down drop by drop: "You go back and take care of the parents of the twins. I will kowtow to you on behalf of the twins...
..."
"Cao Shi! Come up..." Every time I shed tears, I felt that my tears had dried up, but when I saw Cao Shi crying, my eyes immediately became sore, and my two eyeballs were immediately flooded with tears.
I got up, crawled towards the edge of the pit, leaned out almost half of my body, stretched out my hand towards him, and threw the rope in his direction.
"In this life, we are destined to never go to Guilin." Cao Shi couldn't help crying. He sobbed and said to me: "Master Tian, I can only send you here. You have to walk the rest of the way by yourself."
."
"Cao Shi! **Your mother! Come up here, come up here..." I lay on the edge of the pit and cried loudly. The stones on the edge of the pit kept falling down: "What the hell!
Go down and pull you! That’s it! If you can’t come up..."
"Master Tian." Cao Shi stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from his face. He couldn't stop crying, but he forced a smile, raised his head and said to me: "Leave me alone."
I saw Cao Shi's hand holding the dagger tremble violently, and the sharp dagger drew a bloody mark on his neck.
"Old Cao! What are you going to do!"
"Master Tian, live well..."
After saying this, the dagger in Cao Shi's hand cut the blood vessels in his neck, and blood rushed out, dyeing the sand around him scarlet. His smile and tears were also frozen in this moment.
In this darkness that seems to never come out.
There were still tears in his eyes, and the smile before his death was still hanging on the corner of his mouth, but he was not breathing, and his blood-stained head hung down weakly.
"Cao Shi! **Your mother!**! Live for me, live for me..." My heart seemed to be stabbed hard by a sharp dagger at this moment. The pain was worse than
Even death would be unbearable. I reached out to him desperately, trying to grab him and pull him up.
My mind is completely empty, except for the last words he left before his death. Live well, live well...
Why, why did he and Ma Dad say the same thing before they died?
I cried and kept crying, watching Cao Shi being submerged bit by bit by the sand. The sand dyed red with blood flooded his chest and his bloody face. I couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
But she had to keep her eyes open and stare at him closely. This was the last chance, the last chance to take another look at him.
The sand completely submerged Cao Shi. The blood-stained sand in the bunker gradually flowed and disappeared. I could no longer see him or Cao Shi.
I lay on my back next to the sand pit, and the unbearable pain in my heart became more and more severe, with waves of convulsive pain. I couldn't help but cry, and my teeth bit my lips until they bled.
I finally know why I still believe someone after being deceived countless times. Because in my subconscious I always stubbornly believe that no matter what time of the world there are, there will always be people like Cao Shi.
I have no strength left, and every ounce of strength in my body seems to have flowed out with tears. I just lie here, looking at the top of my head, until all the tears have dried up, and I still don't want to move.
I think, even if I can survive, I will never be able to forget Cao Shi's face before he died. That bloody face has been deeply engraved in my heart.
I don’t know how long it took, but I finally stopped crying. However, when I turned around and looked at the sandpit again, it was like seeing the moment before Cao Shi was submerged by the quicksand. The tears that I had finally stopped started to appear again.
Flow downward.
"Old Cao!" I lay on the edge of the pit, crying and shouting to the sand: "Have a good trip..."
