Chapter 36: The Colossus
It seemed that Ghost Chen was having a hard time moving just like us. I subconsciously glanced at the equipment bag, which contained some food, two packages of compressed biscuits, one package of soy sauce beef, and half a bag of purified water.
Under normal circumstances, if we save a little, this is a two-day ration for one person, but now there are four of us, and we are still injured in urgent need of nutritional supplements. This little food is pitiful.
If the injuries on our bodies do not get worse, we will have to rest in place for at least two days without moving around at will. The four of us can share these foods in one meal. The most important thing is water. The injured people need to replenish water.
Half a bag of water is too little.
Dr. Yang said: "Who among us can still move?"
I smiled bitterly and said: "No one can move. Even if we can walk, it is not appropriate to move now. Our injuries are too deep, the medicine is insufficient, and the chance of infection is high. The best way now is to wait until the injury stabilizes."
Dr. Yang seemed a little worried. We had only received one injection of medicine. Under normal circumstances, if we were in the hospital, we would have to take anti-inflammatory drugs for three days. It would be too difficult for us to rely on the body's own repair ability for such a serious injury.
What's more, Ghost Chen didn't take any medicine at all.
In comparison, I have the fastest recovery power. As long as I pay attention, I should be able to recover, but it is not necessarily true for others. I may not be able to move for three to five days. What is even more frightening is that the wound is easy to rot.
I was anxious, but I couldn't show it. At this time, there was no point in being anxious. It would only increase the psychological pressure. So I said: "My injury should heal faster. Let's hold on for two days. If you still can't do it after two days,
If you can't move, I will go out to find the main force."
Dr. Yang nodded, with a worried look on his face, and said: "That's all. I just don't know what the other people are like. Their skills are limited. How could they be separated from Mr. Chen in the first place?"
I had already asked about this matter when I was treating Ghost Chen's wounds. Ghost Chen obviously didn't want to explain it again, so I said: "There were too many things chasing at that time. In order to cover them, Boss Chen and them split up into two groups.
, I think their situation should be better than ours, and there are plenty of medicines."
After deciding on the plan, we divided the food into portions for four people, which we had to eat for two days.
A piece of beef with sauce was first divided into four, and then divided into eight pieces. Each person eats one piece a day, which is the food with the highest nutritional value in our hands now. The remaining compressed biscuits, there are 32 pieces in a bag, are eaten every day.
I eat eight slices a day. When I look at the food distribution, I almost have the urge to cry. I swear that from now on, I will never waste food again. Whoever wastes it again will be slapped by me.
Next, in order to maintain physical strength, we had to sleep and reduce energy consumption to a minimum. It was a bit cold in the cellar. In order to maintain body temperature, several of us put our coats together to make a big blanket, and the four of us were wrapped together.
I don't feel cold even though I'm keeping warm. The only regret is that the ghost Chen and the native are men. It would be great if they were women. No, I can't think about it anymore. I'm thinking about singing again.
But after sleeping for a long time, I feel dizzy, and occasionally I get up to move. In this dark, hungry and physically weak condition, the only entertainment for people is to think. I thought a lot, the most about
Regarding my uncle, in the past twenty years or so, I never knew that he had hidden so many secrets.
Now that I think about it and calm down, I can think of many things.
In the past year, I have wandered around the corner of death too many times. Now think about it, in fact, many things are not big things compared to life. For example, the previous grudge between me and the little yellow dog, now think about it,
He didn't seem so angry anymore about taking advantage of me.
Another example is Ghost Chen. Regarding his stance, if I were in my uncle’s shoes, then the Chen family and I should be enemies. But regardless of stance, Ghost Chen should be somewhat important to me. Firstly, because
He is involved in the fate of our Sun family. Secondly, because I once said that we are friends. Although he did not admit it, he took risks to save me time and time again. I keep these in my heart. Although I, Sun Miao, are a bit confused, I am also
Not ungrateful.
Putting aside these positions and purposes, I am honored to know such a friend. Although he doesn't say it, back in that bustling city, there are many fair-weather friends, but how many people will be willing to pull me when I fall off the cliff?
Me?
I thought a lot, and brain activities also require energy. I felt hungry very quickly. I could bear it at first, but then I stopped feeling hungry for a while, and then I became more intensely hungry. The feeling was so uncomfortable that I gave up my share of it.
After chewing the food, it was just a drop in the bucket.
It is difficult to sleep in the dark cellar at dawn and dusk, and the days when I am not shut in are very uncomfortable. It is the first time that I am so eager to see the sunshine, but the ghost Chen seems to have his own way of keeping track of time. When we eat the last food, he
Said: "The time has come."
I tried to stand up, and the wound healed faster than them. Most of the areas had scabs, so walking was no problem, but I couldn't run.
There was no sound in the space above. Those monsters should have retreated. I carefully opened the stone cover, and there was a stench from outside. It was from the corpses of those monsters that had begun to rot. When I came down, there was a movable stone slab.
Some sunlight came out, and I felt happy. It seemed like it was daytime, so I said to everyone: "Those monsters should only come out at night. It's daytime outside now, so why don't we take this opportunity to go out."
Dr. Yang said: "That's good. At least you can find some food and drink when you go out. If you can't find anyone else, just hide back before nightfall."
After the discussion, I climbed up first and used ropes to pull Dr. Yang and others up. In normal times, three meters would be a height that Ghost Chen could climb up in one leap, but this time the trauma was too severe and his physique was extremely abnormal.
, there is no cure or cure, and he is lucky that he is not infected yet. He also knows that it is serious, so he will not jump around this time.
It took a lot of effort for the four of us to just move out of these two cellars. I vaguely felt that some of my wounds were open, but I didn't bother to care. Standing in the sun, I felt a little dazzling for a while, so I closed my eyes for a while.
Adapt to daylight.
According to the angle of the sun, it should be around nine or ten o'clock in the morning. The sunshine is mild and there is a light mist around it. There are also scattered plant belts in the Devil City. I asked a few people to sit down and rest.
I checked around the area to see if there were any clues left by Sun Er and others.
Soon, I found some blood stains, which should have been left when being chased by those monsters. There was not much blood stains. I couldn't be sure whether it was Sun Er or Charlie's group. After all, the situation was too chaotic at the time. Although Charlie and others ran away,
Fast, but there are also monsters chasing after me, so the situation will not be easy.
I turned around and looked at Ghost Chen and others. They were sitting under a big rock to rest. When I turned around, I found that all three of them were looking at me. At this time, I felt deeply that I had a heavy responsibility and encouraged myself in my heart: Sun
Miao, Sun Miao, now that Ghost Chen is injured, you are the pillar of the team, so you should be more angry.
After encouraging myself, I walked forward with my gun in hand. This devil city looked calm on the surface, but in fact it was full of dangers. We were careless because of this yesterday. We must not make the same mistake a second time.
I made an OK gesture to the three people behind me, indicating that everything was left to me, then I held the gun and followed the blurred blood trail forward. The blood trail disappeared before it reached a fallen boulder.
In the Devil's City, I saw huge stones. Their regularity and craftsmanship were astonishing and puzzling. But the huge stone in front of me shocked me even more. It was shaped like a person, square and full of shape.
At a height of about six meters, the face made me feel very strange. It was vaguely similar to the face I looked down from high in the air.
Ernie's face?
Is this a statue of Ernie? Do the people in this Devil City worship the devil?
I observed carefully, and this stone statue gave me a very strange feeling. When I looked down at the entire Devil City from above, the ground painting was not three-dimensional, and many trees grew across the border, which made it appear to my serious Ernie.
Your face is a little twisted and scary.
The face in front of me has a deep outline. Although it is different from a normal person in some places, it does not look scary. Its eyes are very large, which reminds me of the bronze figures in Sanxingdui.
There are many rings in the eyes, like a huge whirlpool. It stares at the sky with a solemn and solemn expression, as if it is observing something, but those eyes give me the feeling of waiting for something.
Looking at the sky and waiting?
This coincides with the legend told by Big Buck Tooth. Could it be that it is waiting for the girl who was married by the rich second generation Jigisa? This is really unreliable. It’s not that I don’t believe in love, but the legend itself is
Too nonsense.
The bloodstains disappeared here.
how so?
Could it be that they bypassed the stone statue?
I was about to go around to the back of the stone statue. However, as soon as I took a step to the side, my feet suddenly felt empty. I fell down. This fall was really earth-shattering. I noticed that my wound was really open, and there was hot liquid oozing out.
When I came out, yellow floating soil continued to slide from the place where I had just stepped. Only then did I realize that it was another movable stone slab, and I fell into a cellar again.
Damn it, do the people in Devil City like to pickle Chinese cabbage collectively? What are you doing digging so many cellars?
The structure of these cellars is obviously very strong. After many surface buildings have disappeared, they have not collapsed yet. How much do the people of Devil City like pickled cabbage! The cellars are built stronger than the houses!
