Originally, my tossing in the front was very laborious and energy-consuming, but now I finally took the opportunity to wait for someone to take a rest. I just felt that I didn't want to wake up after falling asleep. It was like sleeping in a dark place. Among them,
I’ve had countless strange dreams, and I won’t mention them any more.
But in the end, I met a beauty in my dream. I went up to tease her, and when she turned around, she turned into a straight face. I subconsciously hit her with my hand and slapped her, and her face became distorted again.
His teeth became buck-toothed, and when he sneered, his whole face began to distort again, turning into that straight face again.
I was petrified, just looking at the overlapping, twisted, and crossed faces rushing towards me and grabbing my neck. I woke up with a cry, and then I realized that I was covered in cold sweat. Damn it.
Yes, this turned out to be a dream. I couldn’t help but feel scared and melancholy. I thought I could ignore the problem of Buck Tooth Si’s face. It wasn’t until I had this dream that I discovered that Buck Tooth Si appeared at the door.
A series of strange changes shocked my heart so much.
It's not scary to change my face. What's scary is that damn, such a scary thing, seems to know me! This is what I have been struggling with in my heart and can't let go, and even contacted so many people who think they value me so much.
. It gives me the illusion that there is another me in this world, and that me is not the me now. That me is the one they fancy, the one I know with the straight face - the one they are afraid of.
Because no matter how I think about it, an unscrupulous dandy, even if I gradually mature now, is not worthy of their attention, let alone such a slender face, ghost.
I looked at Buck Tooth Si who was still unconscious next to me and touched his forehead. The fever had almost subsided. Looking at his unconscious state and thinking of the changes in his face in the dream, I shook my head with a wry smile.
, I can’t bear it. I even look at him like a child. It’s really not worthwhile to be involved in a task. This so-called conspiracy has harmed so many of us. Is it necessary to do it now?
Involving others?
I thought again of what Zhang Tianyi said before setting off: try to let them come back alive.
As much as possible. Could it be that keeping people alive has become a luxury?
I secretly made up my mind. Although I didn’t know them as soldiers, and we didn’t talk much along the way, I would do my best to ensure that they could all get out alive, without worrying about anything else.
, as long as they are right, their families are looking forward to them outside.
I stood up, and the noise woke up Zhu Kaihua. He rubbed his eyes and asked me: How long have we been asleep?
I took out my phone, looked at it, and said: It's been about five hours.
Zhu Kaihua stood up, kicked a few sleeping soldiers awake, and cursed: Your comrades who are following you behind are not here yet?
Several people had just woken up and were still shaking their heads in confusion. When we got out of the tent, we found that there was only a pile of bonfires that were about to go out.
nobody.
Of the five soldiers, one with buck teeth was considered a wounded person, two were resting in the tent, and the remaining two were on duty.
But now, it's gone.
In the endless darkness in the tomb, two people were suddenly lost. I felt my whole body tense up. Zhu Kaihua raised the gun and cursed: Damn it! Did they go up to the third floor while we were asleep?!
After saying that, he stared at the big man and another sleepy soldier. The two men also looked puzzled, and the big man even called the two men's names at the top of his voice a few times.
But except for a few echoes floating in the empty tomb, no one responded to the voice.
Zhu Kaihua faced me, gesturing with one hand in the shape of a pistol, hinting at me to take the gun, and threatening the big man and another soldier. I ignored his wink at me, shook my head at him, and signaled him not to act rashly.
Lao Zhu was very unwilling. I think he had strong opinions on the soldiers. It’s no wonder that these soldiers under Zhang Tianyi were too rude when they arrested us at the entrance of the hospital. Zhu Kaihua was so rude to them.
My subordinates suffered another loss, but I remembered the simple and peaceful sleeping look of these two soldiers when I woke up just now, and how respectful they were to me along the way. Forget it, I can say a hundred things.
Wan, my brother is not someone who smiled at you just now and then cuts you with a knife the next moment.
I was afraid that Zhu Kaihua would be violent to them, so I asked: Big man, can you explain what is going on?
The big man looked back at me, then at Zhu Kaihua who was staring at him, and said with a wry smile: Brother Sanliang, if I say I don’t know, do you believe it? I was fast asleep just now, maybe they were in danger.
Already?
Zhu Kaihua interrupted him and said: Are you in danger? Fart! Are they two dead people? If you are really in danger, won't we wake up? The gun in your hand is a toy? If you fire a gun, we are pigs and we will wake up, right?
?You might as well just say that he was abducted by aliens!
I heard that his tone was too aggressive, so I stopped him and said, "Lao Zhu, don't get excited. Can you please speak slowly if you have anything to say?"
Zhu Kaihua turned his head, stared at me, and grinned: You know nothing! If they encounter any emergency outside, they will definitely wake us up! Such a silent disappearance is definitely a subjective disappearance.
!And you have to be careful when you leave, otherwise you can't let me not notice it!
I now suspect that they don’t have any reinforcements at all, and they simply left us to do other things!
When the big man heard what he said, his temper also rose, and he said to Zhu Kaihua: You are talking nonsense! I guarantee you my party spirit! When we came, we were instructed to meet underground. We are in front.
They were observing the situation we encountered behind the scenes, and the most important thing was to see if anyone was following us!
When I heard him say this, and his angry expression with a red face and thick neck, it didn't look like he was acting. Otherwise, because of his acting skills, he wouldn't have to be a soldier, he could just become an actor, so I couldn't help but believe it.
After a while, Zhu Kaihua obviously believed it too, but this guy was not forgiving and shouted at the big man: "Tell me, where are your reinforcements? Where are the two of them? Oops, I thought of it! It was the two of them who waited for the reinforcements.
Then he ran away with the reinforcements?!
After saying that, he said to the big man: Big man, I don't think you are a liar. You are a big man. You are still under the tomb. If nothing else, let me ask you, before you came here, Zhang Tianyi
No hint to you to order something else?
The big man is also a temperamental person. He was so angry that he almost cried. He suppressed his blush and said: I fucking swear on my motherfucker! The chief just instructed us to cooperate with you two and bring out the young master! We didn't do anything else.
Yao Mozi.
Zhu Kaihua then asked: How far are your so-called reinforcements from us?
The big man mused: Since it is hanging from us, it must not be very far.
Zhu Kaihua touched his chin, turned to me and said: Xiao Sanliang, we have slept for five hours, right? Logically speaking, five hours of reinforcements are enough to find us, right? Otherwise, this is still called surveillance?
This time it was not just me, the big man and the little soldier also nodded. I almost figured out what Zhu Kaihua meant, and asked him uncertainly: Do you mean, there is a problem with the reinforcements?
He nodded, looked at me and said: I haven't found him for five hours, or he was killed, but this shouldn't be possible. Who on land has the courage to attack these soldiers? When Zhang Tianyi is a vegetarian? Since
When they set out, they received instructions to cooperate with us. What I'm thinking now is whether reinforcements arrived while we were sleeping. After joining the two soldiers on duty, they brought Zhang Tianyi's latest instructions.
Already?
I said, stop the conspiracy theories. Things are not as complicated as you think? Zhang Tianyi dares to play tricks with us? Doesn't he want Zhang Laohei to survive? Besides, if he really has any selfish motives, he can tell those two in private.
Personally, there is no need to play this trick. I do think that what happened to us is too weird. The two of them worked together to become deserters while we were asleep?
Zhu Kaihua glared at me and cursed: I mean, where have the reinforcements gone?! They haven’t arrived in five hours?
We fought to the end, but there was no result, but now that something like this has happened, the already depressing atmosphere has become even more depressing. When we put it all together, no matter what happens, we still have to move forward. We can't
Isn't it the purpose of influencing us? ——Although, I don't know what our purpose is.
In the end, we left Bucktooth Si in the tent. Firstly, there was no danger on the second floor, and secondly, our current manpower could not spare anyone to take care of him. The big man also suspected that the reinforcements just had an accident and did not arrive.
, and also left a note in the tent, saying that we should continue our journey and the intersection would be at the top of a tree.
After that, we set off and passed through the top of the Bodhi tree to the third floor, where we exited last time. At a glance, Leiyin Temple still stood cold and could not feel any life.
When I climbed to the third floor, I was still hoping for the chance to meet my eldest and second brothers just like the last time.
But it was empty, there was nothing.
I pointed to the ten-step staircase and asked Zhu Kaihua: Do you still remember how to walk?
He nodded and said: I remember, the old man's death last time was so freaking weird that it made me very nervous. It's hard to remember even if I don't remember.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he remembered it clearly. Otherwise, the ten steps would be a fatal hurdle for us. After letting go of this knot, I couldn't help but lead them to see Zhao Jianguo's tomb - the one who dug up Zhao Jianguo.
skin place.
This is my last verification, but the verification is the overlap in the tomb passage.
The previous things overlapped, what about here? Will a coffin of Zhao Jianguo appear again, and a piece of his human skin?
I saw the dug up grave and the opened black coffin, and said to Zhu Kaihua, "Let's go, there's nothing unexpected here. It's still the same as last time. It seems that the overlapping things only appear outside."
Anyway, no matter what you say. No matter how weird the things in front are, we have walked here, to Leiyin Temple. This is the place where we lost our armor last time. Of course, this place also has its advantages - we have been here.
It's like playing a minesweeper game. We have eliminated all dangers last time. This time we go in with a very simple purpose: to rescue Zhang Laohei. No matter what the reason for him to bury himself in the coffin, we have to drag him away.
Come out and hand it over to Zhang Tianyi. As for burying himself however he likes, it has nothing to do with us.
We have already rested on the second floor, so there is no need to rest here. I warned the two soldiers very seriously, just like my second brother warned me, they must follow Lao Zhu and me step by step, step by step.
You can't make any mistakes, because no one knows what kind of situation will happen after you enter Leiyin Temple and kowtow step by step.
There are only ten steps on the cold stairs.
What secrets are hidden in these ten steps?
Zhu Kaihua hid his secrets. The last time he passed here, he secretly remembered the steps. But I, because Old Man Liu died so miserably at that time and I was so nervous, I actually forgot to remember that the old man committed suicide.
Bu Lai's footwork.
Zhu Kaihua was first, I was second, the big guy was third, and the little soldier was fourth.
The four of them held their breaths, not daring to release their breath. Zhu Kaihua raised his foot and was about to step down. I stopped him with a cold sweat on my head and asked in a trembling voice: Lao Zhu, give me the fuck!
Basically, are you sure?
Zhu Kaihua waved his hand to me casually and said with a smile: Just keep your heart in your stomach, brother Zhu is doing things, don't worry.
However, his tight body betrayed him.
I hesitated, and even thought about just turning around and going back! What we were doing was just a rat licking a cat for excitement, but when I thought that if I really went back like this, I would have no relatives, I gritted my teeth and cursed secretly: Damn eggs
I will live forever in the sky for tens of thousands of years, fight hard!
Zhu Kaihua turned around at this time, smiled at me and said: I remember, we don't need to do this at all.
He took out the rope from his backpack, tied it around his waist, handed the other end to me, and said: That's it, I'll go through alone, you remember the steps I took, if I'm right, you guys will follow me, if I'm wrong
, just drag me back.
After a pause, he continued: If you can't drag it back, just give me a break.
After saying that, he turned around and stepped down. He stayed there completely. My heart was in my throat and I shouted: Lao Zhu, are you okay?
He turned back and smiled at me, then took the next step.
He didn't look back, turned his back to me and gave me an OK gesture.
At this time, Zhu Kaihua's body suddenly rose into the sky! He jumped up the steps!
I cursed secretly: Damn it!!! Lao Zhu!
Zhu Kaihua was too nervous. On the last step, when he was near the end, he lost control! He did not walk over, but stepped to the opposite side of the steps!
Does this count as passing the test?
The three flashlights were pointed at Zhu Kaihua. At this time, he grinned at me.
Looking at his mean smile, I felt relieved. Damn it, luckily nothing happened! But the next moment, Zhu Kaihua opened his mouth and wanted to say something to me, but I could only hear his difficult roar.
Sound, but no sound!
His face turned pale, he held his head in pain with both hands, and looked at me in despair. His whole body slowly knelt down and began to kowtow!
My tears burst instantly! I shouted: Lao Zhu! What the hell is wrong with you? I haven’t given you any money yet!
While shouting, he shouted to the two frightened soldiers, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Pull out!"
The three of them began to pull the rope desperately. Zhu Kaihua was very thin and not tall, he probably only weighed about 100 pounds, but the three of us couldn't pull it!
I used all my strength to suck the milk, but Lao Zhu still didn't move! Wrong, it wasn't that he didn't move at all, but he knelt down and moved forward! Seeing that I couldn't pull it anymore, I raised the gun to the sky and pulled the trigger!
Could the sound wake him up?!
Zhu Kaihua's movement of walking forward stopped with the sound of gunfire. He slowly turned back. At this time, I looked at him, with fear and tears on his face. He held his neck with one hand and made a gesture with the other hand.
Pistol gesture, pointed at his head.
I shook my head, impossible! He asked me to give him a blow with a gun! How is this possible?! How could I bear to do it to him? He saved my life several times! Although he is a bit mean-spirited, he would never do anything to me.
By the way, how could I shoot him?
The gunshot may have only briefly awakened him. The next moment, he continued to imitate the monkey and continued walking forward.
The next moment, I lifted my feet and stepped onto the steps!
I want to see what's going on here! The first step was already wrong. In fact, I didn't follow the steps. I just took the steps because I was anxious and angry.
I still can't describe that feeling. Even now, when I sit in front of the computer to retell this story, my mind is still clouded when I think about the experience at that time.
Because at that moment, I didn't know where I was. What I was stepping on was no longer steps, but nothingness. I knew I was holding a flashlight in my hand, but when I looked around, there were only a few stars.
