When I turned over the stones, my thinking suddenly stopped, as if the world had collapsed. Xiang Tengxiao's bronze face was now pale, with dried blood everywhere. His eyes had been closed.
, as quiet as a deep sleep. But I know that he didn’t know when he started not breathing.
I moved all the other rocks away, and almost half of Xiang Tengxiao's body was smashed. Although I knew that all his vital signs had disappeared, I didn't believe that he was dead. I lifted him up and pushed him with all my strength.
I slapped his face and called his name loudly, hoping that he would suddenly open his eyes and reply: I'm fine. Because I think Xiang Tengxiao will not die, and he can cope with all difficulties and dangers in this world.
But all my hopes were shattered by my irrationality. I don’t know how long it took, but I felt exhausted. I finally convinced myself that he was really dead.
There was no sound around, and the Yuantu people might be gone. I wanted to take Xiang Tengxiao back, but his whole body was stiff and cold without any warmth. I started to panic from the chaos, because I thought about still staying there.
Outside, Qingqing, Ziyang and Xiang Tengxiao are all dead. Can the remaining people escape this fate?
I tied Xiang Tengxiao and myself together with a belt, and then climbed up from the bottom of the crack with all my strength. I had no idea what I was thinking. It was empty, but also seemed to be filled with sorrow. The crack was uneven, and climbing up was not a big deal.
It was very difficult, but when I actually climbed up from below, I felt that my hands and feet were shaking.
It was completely dark up there, the Yuantu people were gone, and the throne and the jar on the stone wall were gone. I didn't have time to think about it anymore, so I ran out with Xiang Tengxiao on my back. The road was still flat, but I ran
I stumbled and fell several times. I finally understood where my previous ominous premonition came from.
I ran out of the mountain. Before I came in, the remaining people were engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the Yuantu people. I didn't know how long I was unconscious, but when I ran out, it was completely quiet outside, and no one was there.
I couldn't see that the Yuantu people, our people, disappeared without a trace. My panic suddenly exploded, and I continued running towards the top of the hillside where Qingqing and the others were hiding.
I ran to the top of the mountain in one breath. At that moment, my will finally collapsed, completely collapsed. The reason why I could still keep running back was because I still had a trace of luck in my heart, but when I saw the scene in front of me, plop
With a sound, he fell to the ground.
They were all corpses, lying all over the floor. I saw Qingqing, Su Xiaomeng, and Qingyu. They were all dead.
Is this the end? I wanted to cry, but I couldn't. My lips were trembling up and down. I stretched out my hands to grab at the front. I lay on the ground and crawled over step by step.
Qingqing's face was still fair, but there was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. Su Xiaomeng was lying next to her, her big eyes staring blankly at the sky above her head.
Dead, all dead.
My heart was completely blank. Shitian and the others were lying not far away. I didn’t know what to do. I subconsciously touched the knife on my body. As long as I raised my hand and wiped it on my neck, maybe everything would really be over.
.But if I die, what will these people do? Just stay here and let their bodies be exposed to wind and rain?
I thought about it for a long time, and burying them was the only way I came up with. I struggled to stand up and started dragging the bodies together. I seemed to have no strength. It was difficult to drag a body. I slowly
They walked around, gathering the corpses together. Unknowingly, Qingyu's corpse appeared in front of him.
I have to say that my feelings for her are very complicated. When she was alive, I had a deep prejudice against her, but when she lay quietly on the spot and became a cold corpse, what I had experienced before
Everything came to mind again. I thought of the years I spent with her in the barren mountains, of her blindness due to accidentally eating mushrooms, and of what she said to me before she died...
My heart ached, like being cut by a knife. The pain was so irresistible that it made my brain become confused and my vision became dizzy.
I staggered down and slowly wiped the dust off Qingyu's face. The moment I was about to pick her up, Qingyu's eyes opened in a blink of an eye, with that look on her face.
A slightly weird smile.
When she opened her eyes, the dizziness in my vision seemed to be out of control, and everything suddenly went dark.
The feeling was very strange, like I had fainted, or I was dreaming, and I was very dizzy. I subconsciously wanted to raise my hand to touch my dizzy head, but my wrist was immediately grabbed by someone.
I slowly opened my eyes, and what caught my eye was Qingyu's slightly weird smile. I was suddenly startled, and out of the corner of my eye I saw someone else next to me.
Qingqing, Su Xiaomeng, Xiang Tengxiao, Shitian, Fan Tuan...all the fresh faces appeared in front of me. At that moment, I didn't know if it was my own hallucination or if I was really meeting them in another place.
In this world, I am not afraid, I am just surprised. These are very familiar people. I believe that even if they become ghosts, they will not harm me.
"You're awake." Qingyu put away the smile on her face, while Fan Tuan smiled naively beside him and handed me a glass of steaming water.
When I took the water, I touched his hand. The flesh of Fan Tuan's hand was warm, with the normal temperature of the human body. The cup in my hand tilted slightly, and the hot water spilled on my body, and I suddenly felt
pain.
"Don't be nervous, you read it right, we are all here, I am here, Qingqing is here, they are also here." Qingyu said to me: "You just had a dream."
"It's just a dream..." I turned my head involuntarily. The surrounding places seemed familiar to me. It was a place we passed by before. When I turned around again, I saw that our convoy was still in good condition.
The people were safe and sound, and were packing their things, preparing to arrange a vigil, and then take turns to rest. You could vaguely see Ziyang explaining something to Lao An and Mazi Li, and Hou Jinheng was sitting in the back of a car, smoking silently.
I was really in a trance because I couldn’t tell whether this was a dream or something else. The people around me were extremely real, and Niuniu was still sleeping soundly in Su Xiaomeng’s arms. I was still a little doubtful, but when I
When I saw Su Xiaomeng's eyes, the remaining doubt in my heart was swept away.
Her eyes were full of concern for me, without any pretense, and were extremely sincere. That kind of gaze gave me a more real feeling, even more real than a human being.
"What the hell is going on?" I turned to look at them. I originally wanted Xiang Tengxiao to come forward and give an answer, but he was used to being silent and was not good at words.
Others wanted to say something but were afraid of not being able to explain clearly. Finally, they whispered: "No one has any malicious intentions. I just want you to know in advance what the true meaning of life and death is."
"Why do you want me to know this?"
"You must already know. I believe in your understanding. You can realize that life and death are actually like a dream."
"You are one of the two protagonists in this story." Shitian also came over and turned to look at Ziyang and the others. Although everyone was walking together, they all had their own affiliations. Ziyang and Ren were over there.
As he spoke, Shitian continued to say to me: "Your mood is unstable. More importantly, you have many concerns and are full of uncertainty about this matter. This method was proposed by the man named Hou."
"You had a dream and experienced this yourself. You definitely don't want everything in the dream to become reality, right?" Qingyu said: "Then let yourself truly integrate into this story and regard yourself as the protagonist.
"
My head was covered in cold sweat. I didn’t know if I was still recalling that terrible dream, but my heart was full of joy. Fortunately, it was just a dream. Otherwise, I don’t know how to face the cold bodies of Qingqing and Su Xiaomeng.
.
"Although it's just a dream, it may become true." He whispered, "Everything is in your mind."
"How much time do we have?" I turned over and climbed up, stretching my body. I felt very good now because I saw those people standing in front of me alive.
"There won't be too much time. You won't have another chance to dream." Qingyu looked ahead and said: "In three days at most, we will reach the final destination. By then, everything should come to an end.
.”
The convoy drove continuously for three days, and the distance was definitely not close. I wanted to talk to Hou Jinheng, because I really felt deeply about a dream. Unexpectedly, as soon as I had this idea, Lao An
He walked over from there and said that Hou Jinheng wanted to find me.
I followed Lao An, but after walking less than five or six steps, I heard a rumbling sound coming from the west. I don’t know how far away the sound was from here. It didn’t sound harsh, but it was shocking.
The feeling. The rumblings continued one after another, and then, a shrill roar broke out from the rumblings and pierced the eardrums.
I heard it right, it was definitely the roar of the can. In the past, when I heard the roar of the can, it was far away, at least thousands of miles away, but this time, I believe that what I heard was the real sound of the can, and
The sounds in the dream are the same.
"What's going on!" I looked at Lao An in surprise, and whispered just now that there was a three-day journey. But before I could set off, the roar had already reached my ears.
"I don't know either." Lao An was also a little surprised. He would not lie.
Just when the two of us were confused, Ziyang and Hou Jinheng ran over quickly. The rumbling and roaring disappeared quickly, but Hou Jinheng's expression was unnatural. I don't know if he was nervous.
Still excited, I looked over there for a long time, then turned to me with a trembling voice: "Chaos has broken out in advance!"
