Savage Secret

() With great surprise, I lifted my foot slightly, trying to pull it out of the old cow's hand. As soon as I moved, I felt that the old cow's grip was tighter. I stopped quickly and asked tentatively: "Old man Niu, you're fine!"

Lao Niu said weakly and weakly: "Tie Yan, for the sake of the party and the country, give me a hand!"

Just by hearing the sound, you can tell that the injury is not serious, and it's rare to be so cute.He smiled wryly and said: "Brother, I don't think it is for the sake of the party and the country, I will also pull you. Even if the party and the country abandon you, I will not leave you alone!" At that time, I was a little hesitant: I was hit several times while hiding behind a rock, and the old cow was exposed to an open place with no cover. What would be the result?Will it be smashed into two pieces by a boulder, or will it be pierced into a hornet's nest by the stone chips flying out after a violent collision?I can't help but think of a vicious incident that happened in the quarry by the village two years ago.

After several years of reform and opening up, national construction is in full swing, whether it is paving roads and bridges, building houses or factories, stones are indispensable materials.Our place is not far from the mountain. Those who have the foresight use local materials to build a big mountain. They drill holes and fire guns to get stones. The big stones are sold to stone carving factories. Crusher is processed into stones and stone powder and sold, the cost is extremely low, but the profit is extremely high, but because they are all privately operated, there is no safety awareness, resulting in frequent accidents.Just the year before last, there was a landslide, a pile of huge stones weighing one hundred and ten kilograms rolled down, and the people below had no chance to hide, and were crushed into a pulp. In the end, the relatives of the deceased did not go to collect the body. Instead, take a shovel and scrape off the person stuck to the stone.I was called to help. At that time, there were many people in broad daylight, so I didn’t think there was anything wrong, but I kept having nightmares for the next few days. When I closed my eyes at night, the bloody scene appeared in front of my eyes, as if there were still people. A squashed flat head was always looking at me with bulging eyes.The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and with a trembling voice, I asked Lao Niu: "Old Niu, everything that should be there is still there!"..

After a long time, the old cow said "Hmm!", and he didn't know whether to groan or answer me. When he was hesitating, the old cow said again: "Tie Yan, can you pull me up first, the ground is too cold!"

My heart was extremely disturbed, not only because the old cow was injured, but also doubted whether he hit me with a stone just now. At that time, I thought it was Shen Jibing, but the old cow crawled beside me, which made me shudder.However, listening to the old cow's half-dead voice, I knew that even if it was him, he didn't have the ability to hurt me, so I gritted my teeth and made a decision in my heart: "If it's really in the hands of the fucking old cow, then I will admit it too. .”

The old cow's hands were stiff, cold, and sticky, as if bleeding a lot.Years of friendship came to my mind in an instant, so I quickly squatted down and groped along his hand, not to mention how hard my heart was beating, I was afraid that there would be nothing before I touched my feet. Fortunately, what I was worried about did not happen, he There were still a few pieces of gravel falling on his body, and blood was almost everywhere, but he was still relatively intact.

The light footsteps of Er Yao and the others were not far away, and Wu Hong asked, "Tie Yan, what's your situation? Is your brother with you?"

I suddenly felt Lao Niu's body twitch violently, as if in unbearable pain, so I quickly greeted Wu Hong and the others: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that the injury is a bit serious, come and help me pull him up!"

Now I can only take care of the old cow. I took the bamboo tube containing the purple stone fairy pulp from Luo Yu's hand, and couldn't wait to open it. The cow turned over and over, and he remained motionless as if in a coma.And I myself was injured, and I was too tired after work, so I planned to take a rest before leaving.

Wu Hong handed me a cigarette, lit me up again, and said, "Luo Yu, do you know how far we are from that cave?"

After a long time, Luo Yu said lightly: "I have never been here!"

Wu Hong asked again: "Is the legend of the crescent moon reliable?"

Luo Yu was a little puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Wu Hong said slowly: "The orbit of the moon is not synchronized with the sun, and the position where it appears every day is not fixed. Generally, it rises in the east and sets in the west, but it moves all the time. During the movement, the place where the moon shines It is also different, and the moon is sometimes high and sometimes low. It can shine on the entrance of the cave on this day of this month, but the same day in the next month may not appear in the same place. Therefore, I suspect that it is difficult for us to judge the position of the entrance of the cave with a single quarter moon. !"

My heart skipped a beat: "This is a very serious question. If it is true, our trip will be in vain!"

Shen Jibing, who seldom spoke, let me fall into the bottomless abyss: "When I first heard you talk about the Moon Reflecting Grass, I thought it was quite mysterious, it can't be fake!"

Er Yao stubbornly said: "It will definitely not be fake, now we still have Yujin's tomb there!"

Luo Yu said lightly: "Wait a little longer, you will know everything in the evening!"

Wu Hong said with a chuckle: "Well, that's okay, after all, this canyon is full of weirdness!"

I took the call: "For example?"

Wu Hong said: "Brother Tieyan, haven't you noticed that it is snowing outside the canyon, but there is fog inside the canyon? This is extremely abnormal now, when it snows, the temperature is extremely low, and there is no condition for fog to form! In other words In other words, the temperature inside and outside the canyon is different, or in other words, it is almost two worlds with the outside world, with its own unique environmental climate.”

His analysis is reasonable, and it is not a lie. It is not uncommon for the sun in the east to rain in the west. A ridge or a river may become the dividing line of the weather. Even half of the same road is raining heavily, while the other half is sunny.However, I have no intention of studying this issue with him: "The weather has little effect on people, but the environment here is too dangerous. If things like rolling rocks on the top of the mountain happen a few more times, my life may not be guaranteed."

Er Yao said: "You guys are dragging your feet and falling so far, if you walk with us, you won't be like this."

The few of them were not injured, so they asked curiously: "Where were you just now? Why is nothing wrong?"

Wu Hong said with a smile: "We are lucky, we just walked to the bottom of a cliff!"

In this regard, I expressed my helplessness. It’s not that I didn’t want to walk fast, but I bumped into the stone a few times. My legs hurt so much that I couldn’t walk, so I could only shake my head and sigh softly: “Time is also fate!”

While we were talking, the fog gradually faded, and we could already see things within two meters, including the faces of Luo Yu and Er Yao. Although the visibility was not high, it was countless times better than before. The fog just now The concentration makes people blind.Among the stone chips and stones under our feet, there were some white bones scattered here and there. They didn't look like human bones, but probably belonged to animals that broke in by mistake.By the way, I looked down at the old cow. His face was black and blue, and his body was covered with blood. Even if the purple stone celestial juice is a miracle medicine, he couldn't make him recover immediately. At this moment, he was still lying on the ground motionless.

Wu Hong stood up with his hands on the ground and said, "Let's go find the hole as soon as the fog is about to clear!" Then he said to me, "Tie Yan, I'm afraid Brother Niu will have to work hard for you. If you can't carry it, just tell me , we help you!"

I gently waved my hand: "It should be fine!" Then I asked Wu Hong to help me put the old cow on my body. When I pulled him up, I suddenly saw a deep pain on the old cow's neck, and there was a chopstick Thick and thin, deep into the skin and flesh, I was suddenly shocked: The old cow was also attacked just now, who is it?Wu Hong?When I looked up at Wu Hong, I saw a gloomy look in his eyes when he looked at me, but only for a moment, and then he showed that indifferent smile. Things became more and more weird, I could only pretend that nothing happened, it was natural Put the old cow on me.

Along the way, I was thinking about what happened to Lao Niu just now.If it was him who attacked me, where did the wound on his neck come from?If it wasn't him who attacked me, but Wu Hong and Shen Jibing, then Wu Hong and Shen Jibing shouldn't be by Er Yao and Luo Yu's side.The more I think about it, the more confused I become. I just hope that Lao Niu can remember something.
