Anecdote of the Yellow River

Chapter 25: A Shadow as Big as a Train (2)
Gu Meidi said: "Yes! In fact, looking at it from another angle, they are also a group of poor people. They were originally going to see off ghost relatives and pray for the safety of the whole family. What happened? Not only did they not get peace, but they brought bad luck instead. So in reality Tell us that fate is in our own hands, not in the hands of ghosts and gods!"

There was no threat from the group of savages. After eating and drinking, we lay down and rested tiredly, preparing to recharge our energy before making plans.The drowsiness is like the turbulent waves. I just closed my eyes and fell asleep immediately.

I don't know how long I slept, I opened my eyes in a daze.I turned my head subconsciously, trying to wake up Gu Mei Di, but I was surprised to find that Gu Mei Di lying beside me had disappeared!I rubbed my eyes vigorously, and to my panic, not only Gu Mei Di was gone, but Professor Ye and Grandpa were also gone.The huge fishbone temple was empty, and I was the only one left, like an abandoned ghost.

I got up from the ground in a panic and looked around in a daze, but I couldn't find anyone else at all.I started to panic, calling out other people's names, but all I got was an empty echo.

What about people?Where did they all go?

I was so anxious that I ran out of the Fishbone Temple quickly, and my heart sank immediately.

I was surprised to find that the tin boat that was docked on the shore had disappeared!
My chest seemed to have been hit by a heavy hammer, and the pain made me cry. I put my head in my hands, looked at the empty water in disbelief, and muttered to myself as if I had received an electric shock, "How could this be? How could it be?" so?"

Why is the tin boat gone?Could it be that grandpa and the others drove away?Have they left the Fishbone Temple?Why didn't they wake me up when they left?Could it be that they deliberately want to abandon me here?Why are they doing this?Why do you want to do this?
The cold wind beat my body like a whip, and the icy chill rose from the soles of my feet and spread to all limbs.I can't believe this is true, but the reality is ruthlessly placed in front of me. Grandpa and the others really left, leaving me alone in this perilous cave.I feel helpless and lonely like never before, and I think I will go crazy if I stay here for one more minute.

I have to get out of here!I have to get out of here!

I ran down the platform. I remember there was a fishing boat under the platform. Even if they drove away the tin boat, at least I still had a fishing boat to escape.But when I ran below the platform, my only hope of survival was shattered, and the fishing boat full of funerary goods disappeared!The shore is empty, not a single boat.

I shook my body and fell to the ground weakly, my mind went blank.

It's over!This time it's over!
How am I going to get out of this damn cave without a boat?Do you want me to swim out with my bare hands?Although my swimming skills are not bad, can I successfully avoid those deadly dangers in the water?What kind of corpse rats, abyss, underwater monsters, black mist, any kind of danger is enough to kill me.Besides, the water pool is so cold, I may be frozen into a human popsicle after swimming only a few tens of meters.

After thinking about it, I have no way to leave here. Do you want me to stay in the Fishbone Temple and wait to die?
In an instant, all my thoughts were lost, and I really wanted to crash my head against the fish head stone sculpture on the shore.

But I was reluctant to leave this world. I was still so young, I hadn't found a wife yet, and I was still a virgin. How could I die full of regrets?Even if I go to hell, I will definitely be ridiculed by those brats.

I sat on the shore and thought wildly, my heart was like a peeled orange, which became petal by petal.

I looked back at the magnificent fishbone temple on the platform, and my heart was cold. I never thought that the place where I was buried was such a dark place.But that's good too, so as not to be disturbed by others, and we can also become neighbors with the great general of the Xixia Dynasty. Maybe we can still have a drink and talk happily under the Nine Springs.

Thinking of this, I looked back at the black coffin hanging in mid-air.However, when I turned my head, I froze suddenly, and a layer of white sweat instantly covered every inch of my skin.Because I was horrified to find that there was a person lying on top of that black coffin!

My darling, the hairs all over my body stand on end at this moment, then...on that coffin...how...how could there be a person lying on its stomach?Is that thing a human or a ghost?

After a brief moment of panic, I forced myself to calm down.I touched my waist and found that the engineer shovel was still there. With the engineer shovel in hand, I felt a little more courage in my heart.I licked my dry lips and bravely climbed up to the Fishbone Temple. I wanted to climb up to the top of the black coffin to see what happened.Rather than sitting here waiting to die, it is better to die vigorously.

I hung upside down on the bronze chain, and slowly crawled towards the black coffin.

As I got closer to the black coffin, my heart beat faster and faster.With the last ten meters left, my little heart jumped as if it was going to burst open.At this time, I was a little hesitant, who could that figure be?Could it be the ancient corpse in the coffin?Could it be that the ancient corpse crawled out of the coffin by itself?

I freed up one hand, took out a small flashlight from my pocket, turned it on and bit it in my mouth, then mustered up my courage and continued to climb forward.

Five meters, three meters, two meters...

When I came to the front of the black coffin, the circle of light from the small flashlight just fell on the figure, and I was so surprised that I almost fell into the pool.At this moment, I don't know whether it is nervousness, excitement, fear, or confusion in my heart. It seems that all kinds of emotions are intertwined, which makes me unable to believe what I see.

That figure was none other than the missing Professor Ye!

It was exhilarating and exciting to suddenly see one's own companions in such moments of solitude and helplessness.My cold heart became warm again, I think I misunderstood Professor Ye and the others, they did not leave the cave, nor did they leave me alone.But since they didn't leave, where did the ships anchored on the shore go?Could it be that while we were sleeping, that strange black mist floated out of the abyss again, swallowing the ships on the water?Why did Professor Ye and the others go back to this coffin?Why didn't they wake me up and act together?
I pushed Professor Ye in front of me with extreme confusion, but Professor Ye remained motionless, as if he was asleep.An ominous premonition arose in my heart, so I tremblingly stretched out my right hand, trying to test Professor Ye's breath.When I put my finger in front of the tip of his nose, I couldn't help shivering. I didn't even feel Professor Ye's breathing. Could it be that Professor Ye has passed away?No!impossible!Professor Ye, don't scare me!

I pushed Professor Ye hard, and he was like a dead body, allowing me to knead him.

My heart sank gradually, and my heart was as sad as a knife.Professor Ye is my mentor and my friend. Seeing an old friend die in front of me, what a painful torture for the living!

My heart was twitching fiercely, and tears flowed out like a flood that burst a bank.

At this moment, I felt like I had lost a close relative, crying heartbroken and heartbroken.

Just when I was in pain, I suddenly noticed that Professor Ye in front of me moved.

I immediately stopped my tears, and shouted in surprise and joy: "Professor Ye! So you are not dead! So you are not dead!"

My face turned red very quickly. If Professor Ye knew that I was crying like a little girl, he would definitely laugh at me.

Professor Ye let out a strange moan, then slowly raised his head.The moment he raised his head, I was horrified to find that Professor Ye's eyes were blood-red, and the expression on his face was very stiff, and his eyes were as dull as a puppet.

I felt something was wrong, and subconsciously touched the engineer shovel on my waist with my right hand.

I swallowed, and asked in a harsh voice, "Professor Ye, what's wrong with you? Professor Ye, do you still know me? I am..."

"Roar!" Professor Ye suddenly opened his mouth and bit down on my arm.The moment he opened his mouth, I was horrified to find that there were dark white fangs growing out of his mouth.

In an instant, I felt as if I had fallen into an ice cellar. This...is this a corpse change?

At this moment, facing Professor Ye's close-range surprise attack, I didn't have time to think about it, so I took the engineering shovel from my waist and blocked it in front of me.There was a crisp sound, and the long fangs hit the engineering shovel fiercely, leaving a terrible tooth mark on the indestructible engineering shovel.At the same time, the two fangs in Professor Ye's mouth were broken, and blood spattered all over his mouth, adding to the horror.

Professor Ye didn't seem to be in pain, he didn't care about the broken teeth at all, he whimpered strangely, and stretched out his hands to grab my face.I lowered my head and dodged it, raised my engineering shovel, and slapped Professor Ye heavily on the face.At this moment, I clearly knew that the person in front of me was no longer my beloved mentor, he was an old rice dumpling infected with corpse poison.So I was merciless, the shovel hit so hard, half of Professor Ye's cheek was sunken, there was a crisp sound from his neck, and his head turned to one side.

I didn't care about 21, and kicked Professor Ye's chest with my foot. This kick gave me enough strength to breastfeed.Professor Ye let out a strange cry, and fell directly from the top of the black coffin, and soon there was the sound of heavy objects falling from below.I probed and looked, only to see a string of blisters appearing on the surface of the water, and Professor Ye sank to the bottom of the water like a weight.

I took a long breath, only to realize that my whole body was soaked in sweat.

Seeing the gradually calm water surface, I was very sad in my heart.I felt as if I had killed my beloved mentor with my own hands, and I was filled with guilt.While feeling sad, I thought of a more terrifying thing. Professor Ye has been infected with corpse poison. What about Grandpa and Gu Meidi?where are they?Could they also be infected with corpse poison?If Grandpa or Gu Meidi pounces on me after the corpse transformation, I... can I really kill them with all my heart?
My heart was in a mess, and I subconsciously cast my gaze into the coffin. When I saw it, I was scared out of my wits.The ancient Western Xia corpse in the coffin had disappeared, and the person lying in the coffin at this time was... actually... Gu Meidi!

God!

what on earth is it?

I clawed at my hair with both hands, feeling like my head was about to explode.

Gu Meidi closed his eyes tightly, wearing a bright red robe, and lay peacefully in the yin wooden coffin.

My heart was trembling crazily, and I felt that I had fallen into a whirlpool of incomparable chaos. Everything here made me feel fearful and helpless. I was struggling desperately in the whirlpool, and my nerves and will were being worn away bit by bit. Lose.I think if this continues, I will definitely collapse.

Looking at Gu Meidi with her eyes closed tightly in the coffin, her frowns and smiles echoed in my mind.Although I tried my best to deceive myself that Gu Meidi had just fallen asleep, but deep down in my heart I knew clearly that she would never wake up again.

This person I once loved so much was separated from me in a blink of an eye. I couldn't help but lie on the edge of the coffin and burst into tears.The tears were like broken beads, falling drop by drop on Gu Meidi's face.

Just as I was crying to death, something even more terrifying happened.I saw that Gu Meidi's face had criss-crossed cracks, strands of blood overflowed from the cracks, and then her face shattered piece by piece like a mirror.Soon, there was only a bloody, skinless face in front of me.

"Ah—" I yelled and got up in horror.

I can no longer stand this kind of mental torture, I want to get out of here!I have to get out of here!

I just turned around and saw grandpa standing behind me.

I looked at Grandpa in surprise, when did he come behind me?Why didn't I notice it at all?
I was about to open my mouth to talk to Grandpa, when suddenly a strange smile flashed across Grandpa's face.

My heart skipped a beat, and before I could recover, Grandpa suddenly pulled out the shotgun from behind, and the black muzzle of the gun pressed firmly against the center of my eyebrows.My cold sweat was pouring down, I cried and shouted: "Grandpa! You see clearly! I am Tuobagu! I am your grandson..."

Before the words fell, a gunshot sounded in my ear, and I saw myself fly backwards, and then fell heavily into the icy pool of water.I went down in the water, down, down, down to the bottom of that dark, bottomless abyss.
