138. The call under the fault
Shen Yun pinched the disc tightly, because the force was too strong, the sharp edge cut into the palm of her hand, and she didn't notice the blood dripping down the slit of her palm.
In fact, before she left the airport, she already felt numb all over her body, and even her brain seemed to be drained, and she still hadn't regained consciousness. What's even more terrifying is that the blood in her veins no longer flows, she is like a walking zombie, and the last breath of a living person has been dispersed in Qu Zhaodi's scolding.
Thankfully, the trail behind the camp led to the wasteland, and she wasn't wrong!
Walking to the place where she had talked to Cao Fang, she stopped and sat down for a while. It didn't feel like it took a long time, but it actually took an hour. She stood up, and it was only then that the soreness of holding one position for a long time reminded her that she was still alive.
"From this plain to the west, you can reach a fault in the earth's crust, and the fault is bottomless......"
Cao Fang's voice echoed in her ears, she had left the camp for so long, she still had no intention of going back, so she simply let her temperament go, shook her sore legs and continued to move forward.
Cao Fang didn't lie to her, and after about 40 minutes of walking, the originally flat road surface began to slope downward, forming a shallow slope. At the same time, the strength of the feet also increased, at first it was like something like super glue stuck to the soles of the shoes, and after a short walk, it was like hanging a lead ball.
"The fault is bottomless, and if it is going to fall all the way down, it is likely to reach the center of the earth. The temperature in the center of the earth is extremely high, and human beings approaching it is only an imaginary ......," Cao Fang said to her again.
"Take a look at the fault, and go back when you're done. Tomorrow will be a new day, and it has nothing to do with today. Maybe I won't remember anything about what happened today tomorrow? ”
Shen Yun comforted herself as she struggled down the slope. Most peridot faces are rough, like broken crystals, but a small number have been washed away by groundwater, so they are sleek and difficult to navigate, and she has to be very careful with every step.
Eventually, the fault appeared, like a crocodile floating up from the bottom of a lake, its mouth slightly open, and the jagged peridotite corners were its sharp fangs.
In Shen Yun's imagination, the fault should be full of colorful floating light, like a fluttering cloud. Those who stand by and watch will have the wonderful feeling that the earth has turned over and the sky has turned to their feet. That feeling will surely lead her out of reality and into a beautiful fairytale kingdom, where her father and sister may live, and in the seven-colored clouds, she can fulfill all the wishes hidden in her heart.
But the cold reality disappointed her. Except for the darkness in the fault, the flames of the Earth's Core Flame were not reflected at all, not much different from the concrete cracks she had seen on the ground.
In a trance, she realized a truth, just like Newton, who was sitting under a tree, when he was hit by an apple, that the world has different colors, but only darkness is the same everywhere. If you are in the darkness where you can't see your fingers, you can think that you are staying in a forest hut, you can assume that you are in an empty well underground, and you can even imagine that it is some corner of the universe that is not illuminated, and you have to find a way to get out of it to see the magnificent celestial wonders. Isn't she now just for people trapped in the dark world? How would she get out of the darkness?
However, there was nothing more than a fault in front of her that led to the depths of the earth, and the desolate rocky beach scenery around her did not provide much room for imagination, and she knew that she should face up to reality.
"Hey~"
Sighing, she carefully took small steps to the side, intending to climb back up the not-so-steep slope. The strong gravity is indeed uncomfortable, and it is no wonder that the military camp does not come to this wasteland.
Suddenly, a childish call came up from under the fault:
"Mom~"
"What?" Shen Yun was so frightened that his feet slipped, and he took a few steps back, but he was closer to the fault.
"Today is such a magical day, I can have such a bizarre hallucination!"
She laughed at herself helplessly and went up again.
"Mom~"
Another sound, coming from under the fault with great clarity, how could it be an illusion?!
Shen Yun no longer crawled to the flat ground, but step by step, constantly approaching the fault, in order to see the crocodile-like crack more clearly. Maybe there's some incredible underground monster there?
The fault is like a black pool, and there is nothing but bottomless black. Shen Yun almost laughed out loud, thinking to herself that under such a strong gravitational pull, adults were struggling, how could there be children to play here? She can't have a mental problem, right?
"Mom~"
Just when she was seriously doubting herself, the childish call sounded again, and at the same time, the dark aura in the fault seemed to be waved away by a large hand born from the ground, and a grinning child's face appeared in the middle, it was a boy only three or four years old!
"There...... There's a kid there! Whose child is that? ”
An incomparably terrifying scene, shocking Shen Yun almost flew out of the sky, this was by no means an illusion, she really saw the boy laughing at her, and stretched out two small arms like lotus roots from the darkness, asking her for a hug.
"Who are you?" In shock, Shen Yun involuntarily asked, this question did not pass through his mind.
But as soon as she asked, the boy's smiling face changed, and he looked angry and frightened, and he retreated into the black mist with a small mouth, and was about to disappear.
"Don't go!"
She was afraid that she would not see the child again, so she threw herself into the fault without even thinking about it, intending to catch him.
"Shen Yun! You are crazy! ”
There was a terrified roar on the slope, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps, and just as she was about to fall into the abyss, her wrist was grabbed by a large hand like an iron pincer, so she only sank downward, not really into the devouring crack.
The feeling of being firmly caught by a big hand, Shen Yun still remembers it vividly, when she saw Xie Wuxing for the first time in Field C and was almost scared away by his rough words, this is how Cao Fang stopped her.
She guessed correctly, the person who came was Cao Fang, and Yao Zheng was followed by her.
Because the gravitational pull here is too strong, Shen Yun, who weighs less than 100 catties, has become a big stone weighing five or six hundred catties, even if a powerful person like Cao Fang wants to pull her up.
Thankfully, there was also a Yao Zheng, who ran over and grabbed Shen Yun's other arm, and the two big men wasted their strength before finally dragging her up.
When Shen Yun's two feet also reached the ground, the two of them let go of their hands with confidence and sat down on the ground snorting and panting. Panting is not only due to the exerted strength, but also to the fear that is stronger than the darkness beneath your feet.
Cao Fang, who had eased up, lost his demeanor and demeanor, revealing the fierceness of a fierce man for the first time. He grabbed Shen Yun's collar without saying anything, and roared like a storm: "Xiao Shen, what can't be solved, do you have to go down this road desperately?" Do you know that you only have one life, and if you give up, you will never want to get it back? ”
