Chapter three hundred and ninetieth: eyes but no beads
The whole body looked rickety, and it was obvious that he lived in great pain for a long time.
The final cause of death was mainly due to lack of water!!
But this person has lived here for a period of time, which shows that he has enough ability to find water here to survive!!
But in the end he died due to lack of water, which proves that he gave up looking for water!
In other words, he committed suicide in the end.
Fat Wei didn't dare to move the corpse easily. Normally, a corpse like this that was extremely short of water and left in a hot area for so long would become like a human being.
The texture is very brittle, and it will break into pieces if you are not careful, and your arms and legs will fall off, which will be very difficult to deal with.
But the letter was in the corpse's arms, well preserved...
Fat Wei first gently took out the letter and handed it to Chen Zhi.
Then we will work with Ji Ying and Jian Di to discuss how to take out the body intact.
Fat Wei and the others were tossing around there, while Chen Zhi found a place to sit down alone, held an oil lamp in his hand, and opened the letter...
This letter is also very old, and the paper inside is yellowed. It was obviously written at the same time as those piles of letters.
But this letter is different from those...
The letters Kong Qinghan wrote before, no matter how difficult the situation was, were written strictly in accordance with the format of ancient letters.
The handwriting is neat, the calligraphy is handsome, and the words are articulate. It is a model of Confucian writing!!
The content of the letter in front of me no longer has those exquisite letter formats, and even the writing is not as smooth as before.
On the contrary, this is more like a self-narrative text. In today's words, it is more like a diary.
The beginning of the text is opened with an ancient poem:
【After death, I know that everything is in vain, but the sadness is not the same as that of Jiuzhou.
After I was betrayed by my father and brother and thrown here, my heart felt like it was fried every day, my bones and flesh ached, and I wanted to die all day long.
But every time I think of the admonitions and words of saints from childhood, they turn into infinite power, allowing me to linger here and survive!!
I don't regret my life, but I still have a big thought in my heart, that is, my land in China has been invaded by foreigners. Every time I think of this, my heart burns.
I once chatted with several close friends, discussed plans to save the country, formed a club, and was about to make a difference.
Now I am trapped here, unaware of the wind and rain outside.
My adoptive father had severed all ties with me when he threw me here.
He warned me to protect the most important secret of the family treasury, the Phoenix gall beads.
He also said that this pearl was left by the saint’s own hands, so there must be no mistakes!!
I have been searching for this pearl all day long, but have not found it, and finally I came across it by chance.
It told me that hundreds of years ago, the beads were so spiritual and round that they rolled deep into the ground.
This bead has its own destiny and possesses magical powers. When it comes into contact with the earth, it will bloom. Now it has formed a palace underground!
It’s not that we mortals can protect you so that I don’t have to worry about it...
I asked it, if this is the case, when can I go out?
But it told me that human beings are like grass and trees, their lifespan is short, and their bodies are fragile. Once they enter this place, they cannot get out.
I begged him to release me, saying that there were big things waiting for me to do outside, and that I had many friends who were looking forward to my return every day.
If I stay here, those close friends will cry all day long, wouldn't it be sad!!
But it told me that all human feelings are nothing.
Human beings are hypocritical by nature, capricious, tend to power, flatter the rich and powerful, and their past kindness is as thin as paper.
Now that things have changed outside, my former confidants and friends may not still care about you, so why not stay here and spend your old age in peace.
But I don't believe it, saying that all my friends are gentlemen.
Pure and proud, living and dying together, will never change due to changes in power.
Both I and them have been given life-saving grace, but knowing the favor and not repaying it is the behavior of villains.
No matter how things change outside, they will definitely abandon themselves to save me!!
It was indifferent and made a bet with me!!
It will deliver letters on my behalf to several close friends of mine, but it will not mention where I am, it will only say that I am in deep trouble and ask for help!!
As long as one person is willing to come with it to save me, it will be considered a loser.
It will find a way to send me out.
But if no one is willing to come with it to find me, then I lose!!
I want to dig out my own eyes and never see human affection again. I only blame myself for being blind...]
After Chen Zhi read these words, he saw a new name left at the end of the letter:
Li Qinghan!!
When I saw this, I suddenly heard Fat Wei shouting over there:
"Come and help~~
I can take out the body, but be careful!
Did you see that this guy has no eyes?"
After Chen Zhi heard Fat Wei's shout, he immediately walked over.
I saw that the corpse was indeed lifted out of the cave. It was a very miserable corpse. The body was broken into one piece due to long-term lack of water, and it looked like a roasted monkey.
But the eyes were covered with white cloth, which was covered with solidified plasma. It seemed that he bled for a long time before death!!
Maybe it was because he had been bleeding for a long time without medical treatment and without water replenishment that he finally died like this...
The cloth had already turned into dregs and shattered with just a slight touch, leaving only two black holes for the eyes.
"Did you lose?",
Chen Zhi said softly in his heart, knelt down and looked at those empty eyes, and suddenly felt a sad feeling in his heart.
The insides of those eyes are shriveled, but the two black holes still look a bit scary. They are blind and blind, which is really the most perfect interpretation!
“If you lose, you lose!!
It’s okay if you don’t have eyes, so you don’t have to see that the world is not as beautiful as you think!!!”
Chen Zhi said softly, took out a white square cloth from his treasure bag, solemnly covered the corpse's face, then raised his head and said to Fat Wei,
"Put him here first. When you go out, remember to take him with you!!"
"Okay! Don't worry, I won't forget it~", Fat Wei responded with a smile.
In the time that followed, they began to study the letter written by Kong Qinghan and the clues about Chen Zhu.
There is a very important passage in that letter, which is the description of Phoenix Gall Beads.
Phoenix gall bead pig is another name for Chen bead!!
According to that theory, the dust beads should have rolled into the cracks in the ground a long time ago.
This treasure should have the property of transforming when it encounters earth. After entering the gap, it may quickly grow in size and turn into some kind of building or palace.
Of course, this is just a guess based on the content of the letter.
But in this letter, a very important role is mentioned.
That was the one who made a bet with Kong Qinghan and went out to deliver the message for him, "it"
"It" is not a pronoun for human beings, which is unmistakable for Kong Qinghan, who comes from a scholarly family.
He or she is not used here, but this it is used.
That proves that Kong Qinghan knew in his heart that it was not human.
But Kong Qinghan still made a bet with it, which proved that he was no ordinary animal in his heart.
