Lao An did say that to Fan Tuan personally. Lao An may seem a bit silent or gloomy, but I don’t think he is good at lying. If what he told is a lie, then he can just keep silent about it and just say it.
He didn't say a word to Fan Tuan, and Fan Tuan didn't dare to ask.
Because of this, Fan Tuan was completely frightened, and his expression at that time was so unnatural. When I asked him about it, he could only tell me that it was definitely not true.
"Besides these, did you say anything else?" I continued to ask, trying to understand as much detail as possible about the situation at that time.
"There's nothing else, buddy, don't you think these are enough?" Fan Tuan grinned, showing a dumbfounded expression, and said: "Since then, I don't know how many times I have thought about it, and every time I think about it,
They all think that’s nonsense.”
"Maybe it's nonsense." I nodded. It would be impossible for anyone to believe that there would be someone in this world who is exactly like me, with the same family, living in the same city, that kind of coincidence.
The probability is equal to zero.
But how should I explain what I encountered today? I saw "myself", and at the same time I also saw the dead Fan Tuan and Su Xiaomeng.
"This matter is in the past. Who knows if Lao An is talking nonsense?" Fan Tuantuan said: "I don't believe that one day I will see the second Fan Tuantuan."
"Maybe he's not lying." I thought about it and said, "Lao An won't lie without reason. If he wants to lie, he will have a full motive. But why would he deceive you? In other words, he
Is it necessary to deceive you?"
"What do you mean?" Fan Tuan was surprised. He didn't expect that I would agree with Lao An's words.
I didn't answer, I just thought silently in my heart. Among the few sentences Lao An said to Fan Tuan, the most important sentence was that those things had happened. In fact, it was this sentence that he wanted to highlight. He wanted to
I don't know what Lao An's purpose is in making Fan Tuan believe that those things are true, but I think that if Fan Tuan doesn't understand the authenticity of this matter, he may not be willing to leave.
"Do you know my troubles now?" Fan Tuan was helpless. He originally came here only because of the strange thing at home, but he didn't expect that the old problem was not solved, and a new and bigger problem arose.
"Fan Tuantuan has already told you, it's your turn to tell you, what exactly did you see behind the entrance of the cave?" Su Xiaomeng said, "Don't keep hiding it from us."
"I said, Lao An may not have deceived Fan Tuan." I said, "Behind the cave entrance, I saw three corpses."
"Whose body?"
"Me, you, and him." I pointed at Su Xiaomeng and then at Fan Tuan.
"Are you kidding me?" Su Xiaomeng couldn't accept this fact at all, and stammered at the time: "Tell me, are you kidding, right? Right?"
"I'm not in the mood to joke."
At this moment, the two people immediately became nervous and faintly excited. Seeing their own bodies might be a very ridiculous thing, but it is undeniable that such things have an inexplicable and huge attraction to anyone. As long as they listen to
I said that I would definitely go and see for myself. Fan Tuan stood up with his backpack, and Su Xiaomeng followed closely behind. I quickly stopped them. In the darkness behind the cave entrance, there was always something that frightened me to the extreme.
, I don’t dare to go in again, and I also won’t let the two of them go in and take risks.
"You just need to know about this!" I stopped them and said, "Don't look at it, and don't talk nonsense!"
"It's a very important matter, how can we do it if we don't take a look." Fan Tuan stretched his head and looked behind the hole, but couldn't see anything.
While we were arguing, the walkie-talkie in my waist that had been silent for a long time suddenly transmitted a signal, which made me slightly shocked. The terrain of this place is complex, and the signal of even the most advanced walkie-talkie will be strongly affected if the distance is too far, and the walkie-talkie is now
The sound can only mean that Lao An and those people seem to be very close to us.
Sure enough, before I picked up the walkie-talkie to talk, two lights appeared from the far end of the stone bridge, obviously the light of a flashlight. In a place like this, any light is as dazzling as an indicator light. I saw the other party.
At the same time, they also noticed the light on our side.
I couldn't help but feel nervous. I originally wanted to hide the situation at the entrance of the cave, but once Lao An and the others came over, they couldn't hide it at all.
I took Fan Tuan and the others to greet them, and met each other in the middle of the stone bridge. The people who came were Lao An and another companion. I didn’t want to talk more, but Fan Tuan didn’t dare to talk. Finally, it was Su Xiaomeng who told Lao An.
A few words, asking them how they found their way here.
"You have stayed here for too long." Lao An said, "We can only come over and take a look."
When he said this, I realized that when they were attacked by a swarm of bats, Fan Tuan fell into a coma for a long time. Later, when Dapo was in danger, the three of them were unconscious for an unknown length of time. After waking up, they kept walking along the gouge marks.
, completely forgot about the time.
"Where is that place over the bridge?" Lao An asked me.
"It's nothing." My prejudice against him has never disappeared, and I don't want to waste any more words.
Lao An stopped questioning me and turned to ask Fan Tuan. This time Fan Tuan hesitated, looked at Lao An, then looked at me. Lao An obviously noticed something was wrong, and then asked two more questions, with a serious tone, Fan Tuan
Tuan was frightened and told Lao An that there were some big iron balls over there and a hole.
I think Lao An and the others must have seen the smelting field and the iron balls abandoned there when they came over. Speaking of these, Lao An's eyes changed imperceptibly and he said: "Go over and take a look."
The matter may really be hidden. I have no reason to stop it, and even if I stop it, it will be useless. The five people walked across the stone bridge again and arrived at the large square hole on the other side.
"Have you gone in?" Lao An looked inside next to the iron ball.
"Not yet." I was afraid that Fan Tuan would no longer be able to withstand the scare and would say everything in one breath, so I rushed to answer: "I didn't have time, I got hurt over there, and I can't walk when I get here."
Lao An stopped talking and just stood at the entrance of the cave to watch. He was a man of intangible emotions and emotions, and outsiders could hardly see his emotional changes. After standing here for at least ten minutes, he slowly turned around and said
: "You guys wait here, I'll go in and take a look."
I suddenly panicked. If Lao An broke in, he would definitely find the three corpses as long as he climbed over the steep slope. With his meticulousness, I couldn't explain this matter clearly. If he asked again, he would definitely find it.
It's a mess.
Most importantly, I don't want him to know this at all.
But Lao An made up his mind and acted very quickly. Before I could say anything else, he left his things behind and walked into the large square hole alone. The moment he just walked in, Lao An seemed to hesitate for a moment, and his steps followed.
Then he stopped, but his hesitation was only for a moment, and then he stepped forward without any further pause.
Soon, he disappeared from sight, and the four of us sat here and waited. Su Xiaomeng asked Lao An's companion to inquire about their progress. The man said that the path they took was very sparse, and they found some traces left by the Yuantu people along the way.
, but it wasn’t too important, and then there was no progress and I went back the way I came.
We chatted and waited here for about two hours. After that, Lao An came out. I can't say whether his mood changed, but I always felt that he was a little different from usual. I was worried that he would ask Shi
Regarding the three corpses at the bottom of the slope, Lao An didn't say a word. After coming out, he immediately flipped through his backpack, took out all the supplies, emptied another bag, and stuffed it as much as he could.
"What do you want to do?" Su Xiaomeng asked.
"I'll go in again." Lao An moved quickly, packed up quickly, put on his backpack, and said: "I will take away part of the supplies, and the rest will be enough for you to last three days."
After saying that, he picked up his backpack and left. Su Xiaomeng shouted from behind: "Hey, hey, hey, what if we run out of food?"
"If the three days of supplies are all used up, you..." Lao An turned around and said, "Just leave and don't wait for me anymore."
The moment Lao An re-entered, I suddenly had the urge to rush over and go with him, but that was unrealistic. Lao An didn't let me rest assured. If I went in with him, there was no guarantee that something would happen that I couldn't predict.
situation. However, if I don’t go in, I may lose the only opportunity to see the depths of space.
Lao An didn't give me any room to think. He walked very fast and disappeared after a while.
In this circle, I may be the only one with special thoughts. I don’t have to listen to Lao An’s orders, but everyone else strictly follows them. After Lao An entered, his companions sat down, and Su Xiaomeng’s body
It was not going well to begin with, so I took this opportunity to take a good rest.
Waiting is very boring. I don’t know why I have to sit here and wait eagerly. I know very well that even if Lao An discovers something from the space behind the cave entrance, he probably won’t tell me, but there is always a trace of luck in my heart.
, I hope he can tell me more when he comes out.
In different environments, people may have different concepts of time. Three days is actually not that long, but to me, it may seem like a long time. While waiting anxiously, it had been almost three days since Lao An entered the cave entrance. He gave
The supplies we left behind were not much, and they were all distributed according to the minimum, so by this time, the backpack was almost empty.
We have nothing to eat, and we have to maintain the strength to go back. We can persist for two more days at most. Although Lao An said that if he doesn’t come back within three days, he will let us leave first, but Lao An’s companions don’t want to do that, including me.
We didn't feel guilty and didn't want to. So we squeezed out a little something like toothpaste and held on for an extra day and a half. Seeing that the situation was getting worse, this companion discussed with me and we decided that he would return the same way and guard the people who were left outside.
Call two people in and bring some things with them.
After he left, my emotions kept fluctuating, and my mind was filled with the situation in that unknown space. But I couldn't imagine what would be in the depths of the space, but I had a hunch that it would be an amazing secret.
I suddenly regretted not going in with Lao An.
Thinking about it, I slowly walked to the end of the stone bridge. There was no wind in the abyss on both sides of the bridge, which was a bit uneasy. I smoked a cigarette, turned around and wanted to walk back. But as soon as I moved my steps, I suddenly felt
