Chapter 217 Transfer
217 Chapter 217 Transfer

Just like this, a few hours passed in a busy manner. Wu Xie and Fatty had packed and sorted out all the supplies they had found to take away. When Wu Xie looked at the time, it happened to be noon.

The fat man said to him: "It's all done. Let's leave quickly while there are no snakes."

Wu Xie said, "Let's check on them first." He followed them and walked over.

I had a little brother taking care of me, so they checked on Pan Zi first. He was still confused and had never eaten, so they had to feed him water.Pan Zi's condition was definitely not suitable for setting off now, Wu Xie and the others turned to look at me again.

I had been awake for a while now, and my brother had been watching my condition. He saw that my respiratory muscles paralyzed by snake venom had obviously recovered a bit, and because I was not breathing so hard, he touched my face. Said to me: "Wake up, don't move."

My consciousness was awake, so I blinked at the little brother. I could feel that my whole body was limp, my body was terribly weak, I had no strength at all, I wasn't breathing so much, and my arms were a little painful.I haven't drank water for a long time, and my mouth felt dry, so I said weakly: "I want to drink water."

The little brother reached the water beside me, and then slowly helped me up. Because I couldn't sit up at all, the little brother used his body and legs to hold me up so that I could stand up. He held me up with one hand. He touched the back of my head, held water in one hand and put it to my mouth, and whispered to me: "Slow down."

When Wu Xie and Fatty saw that I was awake and saw that my little brother's face was much better than before, they knew that my little girl would not die now, and they were very happy, but they knew it by looking at my limp appearance. , the girl must not be able to stand up now, so it is obvious that they cannot leave here with so many things on their backs, and they can't go very far.

Wu Xie smiled slightly and asked me, "Are you feeling better?"

I blinked at him. The little brother looked at my arm. It was still a little swollen, but it was much better. The blue color had faded. He said, "It's still not suitable to walk too far now. The girl can't move around yet." "As he spoke, he looked at the temple on one side, pointed to that side and said to them: "Go there first. There is water under the gaps between these stones, and they are connected to the swamp. You must stay away from the water source."

Wu Xie looked at it and said, "No wonder all these snakes came out of the cracks. Let's transport the things inside first, and you can come back after they're done."

After saying that, Wu Xie and Fatty began to transport the equipment and materials to the temple bit by bit. The younger brother continued to look at the injured and sick numbers of us. When they finished transporting and called us, it was sunset again.

The fat man carried Pan Zi on his back, Wu Xie picked up the remaining equipment here, and the little brother also picked me up on his back, and we walked towards the collapsed temple.

The collapsed temple only had a general shape, and we didn’t even know where the door was. They found a corridor at random, and we walked in.

After entering, I found that the space inside was quite large.Wu Xie said: "This building was probably supposed to have two floors. The underground floor was severely damaged, but the structure at that time can still be seen on the upper floor. It was made of black stones. Although it is not high, it has There are many very delicate stone pillars. I don't know what kind of access is there between the two floors, but now the collapsed thing has become a steep slope. Come on, be careful, we have to climb over here. Inside is a basically intact stone room. And you can still see the camp below.”

The two of them carried Pan Zi over first, then Wu Xie turned around and helped the little brother carry me over.

We all settled down. Wu Xie turned around and looked outside. He couldn't help but sighed deeply and said, "Now that I see the sun setting, I feel..."

The fat man said: "Here, when the sun sets, it's like a damn curse."

Wu Xie said: "Isn't it? I feel that this time is too fast. The energy from yesterday has not faded yet, and dusk is coming soon. Now I feel ferocious looking at the shadows of these trees, and there is an invisible pressure pressing on me." Come here, tell me, will those things really come back tonight? Can we survive tonight?"

Because he didn't dare to light a big bonfire, the fat man made a small charcoal pile and said to him: "Anyway, we have prepared everything we need to prepare, and the mud is also ready. I guess those snakes will definitely start to move after the fog fills the air. Let's first Eat, eat and drink enough to build up your strength. If they come, hide if you can. If you can't, just fight them. That's it, I'll make the food first."

After that, Fatty set up the stove outside the ruins and cooked the cans he found. Wu Xie wanted to help Fatty cook together, but Fatty moved too fast. Wu Xie couldn't keep up with the rhythm and helped open the cans. From now on, there will be nothing to do except sit in a daze on the edge.

The little brother held me in his arms and helped them look out for the wind. Gradually, I came up a little more slowly, gained a little strength, and slowly I was able to sit up and lean on him.

The fat man was cooking, frowning and looking at Wu Xie who was in a daze, and said: "Look at you, you are frowning all day long, and you don't know what you are thinking about in your head. You are a big man like Lin Daiyu." Like, I just bother you like this, there are so many things in this world to ponder, living heartlessly is just kicking to death, even if you have exhausted all your abilities, you are kicking to death, the ending is the same anyway, you don’t care about the middle. What's that bond for?"

Wu Xie was a little surprised when he heard that the fat man would use the formal word "bond". After thinking about it, he realized that something was wrong. He said "chicken and eight eggs", and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The little brother suddenly asked me: "Can you sit by yourself?"

I stood up slowly, tried it, and said softly, "Okay."

He touched my head and said, "Don't move your arms."

I looked at him and nodded, then followed him and looked towards the stone wall.Wu Xie was just thinking about what the fat man said when he heard the fat man shout: "I'm innocent, what do you think this little brother is doing?"

Wu Xie looked back, looked up and saw that the stuffy oil bottle in the temple was using something to wipe the stone wall above, and shouted: "What's wrong?"

I seemed to hear Wu Xie's cry, and said to the little brother in a weak voice: "Wu Xie seems to be calling you."

The little brother turned his head and glanced at me, but said nothing and continued to do his thing.

When Wu Xie saw that there was no reply from the little brother, he thought that he might not have heard anything. Anyway, he had done almost all the things that could help him. He was curious about what the oil bottle was doing, and he suddenly became interested. He put down the can knife and said He said, "I'll go take a look." Then he climbed up.

He quickly walked around from the corridor of the temple to the little brother. When he saw that I could sit up on my own, he said to me: "It seems much better. Remember to tell me if you still feel uncomfortable."

I smiled and said to him, "I know."

Following him, he looked at the little brother, who was using the charcoal from the campfire to wipe the wall, as if he wanted to rub something.

Wu Xie asked: "Meng Youping, what are you doing?"

The little brother pointed to the stone beside him and said, "I just found it."

A large piece of the wall had been painted black by the little brother. Wu Xie blew on it with his mouth and found that there were almost smoothed patterns on these stone walls and said, "Relief?"

The little brother said: "It is basically invisible in the sunlight. Only by applying toner can the shadow appear and you can distinguish it." He picked another piece from the bonfire and applied it on it.

I said to him: "Black carbon ash is applied on the rocks. Under the changes of light and shadow, as long as you stand in the right position, the reliefs on the rocks will appear. The paintings here, I guess, are about snakes." Yes."

Wu Xie found a suitable position and finally saw what was on it and said: "It's true, there are a lot of snakes depicted here, but it's hard to tell what they are about. Looking at it through the light and shadow, the snake shadows are erratic. It’s like it’s alive, quite vivid.”

The little brother continued to apply carbon dust, and soon, ancient reliefs appeared on the rocks here. I looked over there with interest, so I said to them: "I want to see it too."

Wu Xie looked at me and smiled. The younger brother raised his hand full of carbon ash and glanced at me. They both turned around and walked to my side. The younger brother used his other hand without carbon ash to pull me up. I was not standing in the same position. It was very stable. Wu Xie also reached out to support me, and they led me over.

The little brother glanced at Wu Xie. Wu Xie understood immediately and quickly supported me. The little brother went to look at the paintings on the stone wall. After reading it once, he said, "This is about the snakes."

Wu Xie asked: "What are you talking about?"

The little brother said: "I can't understand it all at once, I have to think about it slowly."

Wu Xie was very interested in these things, so he said to me: "Xiao Xun, let's go there." He supported me and leaned over.

He asked me: "Can you stand on your own? I'll find an angle first."

I replied: "Yes, you can find it."

Following him, he began to move around to find the best angle and said, "I haven't seen many historical relics about this place along the way. Therefore, not knowing anything about this place is the most direct reason for our current situation."

The little brother pointed out the appropriate angle to him, and when he found the angle, they supported me and let me watch it together.

The three of us looked at the content of the painting half-guessing and half-thinking. There are many things expressed on this relief. As the little brother said, it is difficult to understand at once and needs to be carefully considered.
