Chapter 30 Chapter 30: The Third Night: The Mire

This fall was completely caught off guard. It was completely different from the fall of trekking in the jungle. I didn’t even have time to react before I rolled down the cliff. In the confusion, I grabbed hard behind me, trying to catch anything I could stop myself, but all I could touch was bare moss-covered rock surfaces. My hands slipped down, and then my knees were placed on the rocks. bottom of the cliff. Fortunately, the section is not high, and there is water and silt below, and there is no fatal injury, but I found that the current was very fast, and it immediately pulled me down the river. He gritted his teeth and stood up with difficulty, only to find that the miner's lamp was hanging halfway up the cliff.It's not enough anymore.

After a while, I felt that there was no fracture anywhere, so I observed the surrounding environment, but I couldn't see clearly. I could only feel that I was standing in the swamp, with my feet stuck in the mud, and in the area illuminated by the miner's lamp above, I saw the broken body. The rock face that came down should be part of a relic. I wondered why there was a cliff behind the tree. Where did that person talk just now? Could it be that he was lying on the tree like a gecko. So he yelled, but there was no answer.It seemed that the man was just trying to seduce me to fall.Suddenly, I thought of hearing voices during the day, and my thoughts were over. I really had a little hallucination. Could it be that the forest here disturbed my nerves?

After a few more flops, I swam to the edge of the cliff, grabbed a protruding stone to stabilize my body, and then the miner's lamp was reflected by the extremely weak light of the stone wall, and I started to climb up, but the moss was too slippery. There is nothing to rely on, and it slides down after climbing several times. I can't change the sides, the only place I can move forward is to walk along the rock wall to the lower reaches of the swamp, where there is darkness.But the current is so fast here, and there is either a well head or a steep fault nearby. Once I slip, I may be sucked into the vortex of the well head, or washed down a small waterfall, and I will die or peel off my skin.

After hesitating for a while, I realized that I was actually trapped in such a situation. Either I had to wait until dawn, or someone would come to rescue me. I absolutely refused to wait until dawn, so I immediately raised my voice and called for help a few times. . They might be not far away, it's so quiet here, they might be able to hear them shouting louder. But the sky didn't do what people wanted, I shouted and shouted for a long time, my throat became hoarse, but there was no echo at all, the surroundings were completely silent, and the silence was ridiculous, there was not even a little movement in the darkness that could make people imagine .

I couldn't cry anymore, so let's not mention the depression in my heart. I said that I had encountered all kinds of unlucky things. I took a deep breath to calm myself down, and I looked at my watch to see when the fog would dissipate.After the fog dissipates, the visibility will increase, and the light of this miner's lamp can illuminate a wider area, so maybe I can climb up, or I can find something at the bottom of the water and smash the miner's lamp down. I looked at my watch. According to yesterday’s experience, the fog should not last for a few hours, and the time can be tolerated. I touched the stone protrusion on one side and kept myself in a more comfortable position. I looked around and said to myself I can't even see how to pass these few hours.

My feet in the mud made me feel very uncomfortable. This feeling is definitely not good. I still remember the story Pan Zi told me. At this time, I also felt that the feet in the mud were being eaten by insects, and they were lifted out from time to time. Touched it, only to find it was just an illusion. This illusion makes me uneasy. I try my best to climb up by leaning on the rock to get my feet out of the water, but every time I fail. It's good to find something underwater that allows me to step on it and get out of the water.Or I can step on some twigs and debris, which I can use to smash the miner's lamp.

As my feet moved, I stepped on something, but it wasn't a tree branch, and that feeling made me smart. Capillary, like human hair. I started breaking out in a cold sweat, and I now have an extremely disgusting memory of my hair, and for the first few weeks after returning from Xisha, I could almost feel sick when I touched my own hair. Immediately I pulled my foot back, I didn't dare to stretch it out again, but as soon as I moved my foot, I kicked something again, this time it was soft, and I suddenly realized that there might be something big in the mud here. To be cautious, I turned on the blue light of the watch and shone it underwater. This blue light was originally designed to allow people to see the value of the electronic watch in the dark. The light could hardly penetrate the water, so I had to squat down , submerge the watch into the water.

Then I was stunned, under the ghostly blue light, I saw a person sunk in the mud, buried in the mud, his hair was dancing along the waves like water plants. My hands trembled as I moved, and I realized that it was a corpse, and it was a fresh corpse. Although it was completely covered in mud, it could be seen that the military uniform he was wearing was very similar to that of the fat man. Then, I found something was wrong, turned the direction of the watch, and I tried to move forward, and found that the mud in front of me was full of dead people, all of them were sunk in the mud, and their limbs were intertwined, like after a massacre. The mass graves are average.And all of them had just died.

I pulled the corpse in front of me out of the mud, and found that it was dead and heavy, as if it had been filled with lead. I saw that the various equipment around the waist of the man were exactly the same as those of Fatty and Panzi. I was trembling, and suddenly understood what was going on—the third uncle's team was here!
