Women in the Northern Song Dynasty had a custom of binding their feet. Generally, women would have their feet tightly wrapped when they were four or five years old. It was not until they reached adulthood that their bones were finalized, and then the wrapped cloth straps would be untied to make the feet
The deformity became smaller, and some women even refused to untie their feet even when they were adults. They bound their feet for life. In the Southern Song Dynasty, this custom became even more prosperous. There is a saying of three-inch golden lotus, which means that women's feet should not only be as small as three inches, but also curved.
Make a bow.
In the eyes of modern people, this is a bad habit, which is abnormal, pathological, unbelievable and unacceptable, and brings serious and life-long pain to the people who bind their feet.
However, during the period when foot binding flourished in the Southern Song Dynasty, this pathological behavior was considered normal in the eyes of people at that time. On the contrary, those women who did not have their feet bound were the ones with problems and deformities.
In the same way, leaving aside the flowers of the other side, a person who has rotted to the point of seeing the bones is breathing, and an intact person is breathing. According to normal thinking and understanding, it is logical to think that the intact person is breathing.
, and it is incredible that a rotting person is still breathing.
I feel that my current concept is like that of people in the Southern Song Dynasty. When I first learned that rotten corpses were still breathing, I was frightened and unimaginable. But with the support of reality, this concept has gradually changed.
Treating this bizarre thing as a normal and reasonable thing is like meeting a sick woman with bound feet on the street. At first, I will feel deformed, but after seeing it more and for a long time, I will accept it.
This is a fact and is considered a normal thing.
But now, when I see a seemingly intact person breathing in the Flower of the Other Side, I feel it is abnormal. Just like when I see a normal woman on the street without bound feet, I think she is pathological.
I believe I am not the only one who feels this way. Shen Yuan and the others are all the same as me, because everyone saw those two intact
The Queen no longer dared to act rashly and restrained herself a lot.
These two people who are not rotting give me an uneasy feeling. There are countless Bianhua flowers here. I don’t know how many people like them exist. It seems that they will wake up with a yawn at any time. Maybe they are better than others.
It was still scary, so I unconsciously moved to the side.
"Ouch..."
"Plop!"
"Your uncle's..."
I wanted to stay away from the two intact people and slowly move to the side, but I didn't expect that I kicked my backpack on the ground. I was very unlucky. My feet were entangled in the shoulder straps, and I stumbled.
He jumped directly into the blood-red underground river.
Shen Yuan wanted to come over and pull me, but it was too late. He was some distance away from me. I was flopping in the underground river, trying to swim to the shore, but the blood-red river water kept boiling like boiling water. Although
It was not as intense as when the other shore flower first rose and bloomed, but it already had a great impact on me. Not only did I not row to the shore, but it got further and further away.
"Master Qi, save me..."
No matter how hard I paddled, I was still sinking slowly. I was a little panicked and tried to calm myself down. My eyes were blurred by the blood-red river water. I was disoriented and didn't know where the river bank was. I instinctively shouted loudly.
Said: "Silly...Silly...save me...Zijin...Old Man Shen..."
"Grab the sapper shovel!"
Shen Yuan shouted to me loudly: "It's right behind you, turn around and grab the engineer shovel!"
"Brother Ye Zi, behind you." Shale also shouted loudly.
I choked several mouthfuls of blood from the underground river and kept treading water, but I still sank like a piece of iron. My head was completely submerged. I stretched out my hands from the water and kept waving, trying to grab the engineer shovel.
, but after touching it for a long time, I didn’t touch it. Fortunately, my hand touched something soft and felt
It was the petals of the other shore flower. It was as if I had grasped a life-saving straw. I held on tightly and did not dare to let go.
Very good, the petals were very strong and were not torn off by me. I held my breath and exerted my strength with both hands, trying to reach out and fill my lungs with a big mouthful of air. But at this moment, my feet were suddenly entangled.
I didn't know what the ghost thing was. I kicked my legs in the water and struggled hard, but I couldn't get rid of it. The thing was like a waterweed. The more I struggled, the tighter it became.
"Plop..."
I was struggling and flopping in the water, and I heard the sound of falling into the water. My panic and fear suddenly calmed down a little. I knew that someone must be coming to save me, but I couldn’t see who it was. I wanted to remind him.
, there is something in the water, but my head is all in the water, and I can't shout at all. I can only hope that the person who jumped into the water is Mao Tianlin, and he has a way to deal with the thing in the water.
I don’t know how long has passed, it could be a few seconds, or it could be more than ten seconds. I feel like a century has passed. My feet are wrapped tighter and tighter, and the air in my lungs has disappeared. The feeling of suffocation is really great.
I felt uncomfortable, my mind went blank, my body began to twitch uncontrollably, and I was submerged in the blood-red river water, but in front of me was darkness, endless darkness. I still wanted to struggle, but my body had begun to stiffen and it was difficult to move.
"There's something under the water!"
Shale said loudly in the underground river: "I am entangled, don't come down, go to the other side of the flower."
In the water, I heard a little noise. It turned out that the person who jumped down was not Mao Tianlin, but Shale.
"Hold my hand!"
This is the voice of Mao Tianlin.
"Boss Ye! Boss Ye!"
Shen Yuan was also shouting, "I can't catch him, he has already sunk."
