Chapter 81: On the Road to Huangquan
After falling into the water, I took a few mouthfuls of green water because I fell into the water unprepared.
After taking a few mouthfuls, I felt like there were bugs crawling in my mouth, nose, and even ears. It was very uncomfortable.
It feels completely different from the water in the deep pool before.
I kept paddling under the water, trying to get myself out of the water, but within a few strokes, my hand hit something.
When I took a look, I saw a human head that had rotted to the point where only a skeleton was left, floating in the water.
I looked again and saw that there were many skulls around me, densely packed, just like a burial ground.
The river is not very deep, and through the green water, we can see that the bottom of the river is full of human skeletons, as well as the remains of body parts that have not yet completely decomposed.
Judging from this posture, it is estimated that this water is a collection of corpses. Those who exude the smell of corpses must be eating these human flesh.
But this is underwater, do they all have water? Or is this just one of the corpse collection sites?
Just when I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt like something invisible was strangled around my neck. I coughed several times and choked on my mouth several times.
At this time, I felt like there were bugs crawling all over my body and my head hurt!
I hurriedly rowed on the river, and when I was almost out of the water, my calves suddenly cramped.
I cursed secretly in my heart, thinking that I have never had cramps in my life, why did I have cramps now! Wipe it!
Otherwise, when this person points his back, his teeth will choke even if he drinks cold water!
My calf was cramping, and I was knocked into the water, so I didn't get any oxygen at all.
Now I have reached the limit of holding my breath. I really can't hold on any longer. My body suddenly relaxes and my hands droop.
Then I choked on some water and couldn't hold it any longer, and my whole body began to sink.
His consciousness began to become blurry, and the past events that had happened before appeared in front of his eyes like a revolving lantern.
When I was confused, I saw a figure jumping into the water and swimming towards me.
I wanted to reach out, but I lost consciousness and soon fell unconscious.
I felt a flash of white light in front of my eyes, and it was very dazzling even if I closed my eyes.
After the strong light passed, I suddenly felt something beneath my feet, as if I was stepping on the ground.
The feeling of insects crawling on my body was gone, and my whole body felt very relaxed and cool, as if I was standing under the shade of a cool tree.
I slowly opened my eyes and found that I was in a forest, surrounded by a strange environment.
I was secretly wondering, thinking, didn't I sink into the water just now? How could I appear here? Where is this? Where are Fatty Zhang Tianyi and the others? Am I dead? Is this Huangquan Road?
A series of questions surrounded me, making my mind very confused.
There are tall trees around, and you can still vaguely hear the chirping of birds. The sky is not blue, but more like it has been covered with plastic wrap, making it feel foggy.
The environment was also filled with white fog, and visibility was only two meters away.
A sudden gust of wind blew by, making me feel a little bit cold. This gust of wind seemed to catch the wind and wash away the dust for me, blowing away my thoughts.
I subconsciously breathed hot air into my hands, and found that my hands were extremely cold, no different from ice cubes.
My whole body felt very cold, colder than ever before, as if I had just come out of the refrigerator.
I looked around at the surrounding environment with confusion, wondering, could this be the underworld? It's really cold!
I rubbed my arms with both hands and suddenly realized that the clothes on my body had turned into a white short T-shirt at some point.
I couldn't help but laugh bitterly, thinking that if you don't let me wear something warmer, you are afraid of the cold!
I rubbed my arms and started to walk forward. At this time, there was a sound from in front of me. It was an extremely familiar voice!
"Yaya! You're here!"
I was in a daze and stopped. I couldn't believe it. I frowned and asked weakly:
"Father?"
After saying that, I smiled bitterly again and shook my head, thinking that it must be the same as last time, or an illusion.
It's so miserable. They're all dead and yet they let me hallucinate again, killing people and killing them!
Just as he shook his head and smiled bitterly, another voice came from the other side:
"Xiao Lin, come here quickly, mother is here to pick you up!"
The voice is very gentle, just like when your mother patted you to sleep when you were little.
I was stunned for a moment, with mixed feelings in my heart. I opened my mouth and was speechless for a moment, not knowing whether to respond or ask.
This sound reminded me of the scene when I was lying on my mother's back and playing around when I was little.
This sound reminds me of my mother singing a lullaby to coax me to sleep.
This sound reminded me of the scene where my mother went to other people's homes to vent her anger on my behalf.
This sound brought memories that had been sealed away for eleven years to my mind again.
I don’t understand why my mother abandoned me at that time, why she abandoned me!
For a moment, my heart felt as if the seasoning had been spilled. I suddenly had mixed feelings and ran out in tears.
I adjusted my mood, wiped the tears from my face, and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Is it mother?"
I listened eagerly, eager to get a response.
Within a few seconds, a familiar voice came again:
"Xiaolin, it's me! I'm here to pick you up."
When I heard my mother's voice again, I couldn't hold it in any longer, and my tears fell uncontrollably like pearls with broken strings.
I shouted at the top of my voice, mother, and then ran forward!
After running a few steps, another voice came from behind:
"Arlene!"
The voice is very deep and very magnetic.
I was stunned immediately, stopped in my tracks, and turned my head in confusion.
I saw a tall and thin black figure walking over from a distance. From the figure, I felt very familiar.
Soon, the tall and thin black figure came over. He walked through the fog and stood in front of me.
Only then did I see his face clearly. It was Zhang Tianyi. His eyes were still so sharp and lively, and his stern face gave him a sense of security.
I looked at him and suddenly thought, this is Huangquan Road, and only dead people can come here. Zhang Tianyi is here, is he also dead? Have you never fought those underworld soldiers?
He has never been beaten, and neither has the fat man...
I sighed in annoyance. If I had known better, I wouldn’t have come to visit this tomb. Now no one ran away!
Forget it! Let’s go together, we will still be good brothers in the next life!
I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes, but they were still a little warm.
At this time, my mother said from the front again:
"Xiao Lin, let's go, it's getting dark soon."
I raised my head and responded, then looked at Zhang Tianyi, pointed in the direction of my mother, and motioned for him to go with me.
However, at this moment, Zhang Tianyi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly grabbed my hand.
I looked at him doubtfully, not knowing what he was going to do. Suddenly I thought that the fat man hadn't followed me yet.
I laughed quickly and said:
"Okay, let's wait for a while Fatty."
Just after he finished speaking, Zhang Tianyi suddenly said:
"Arlene, come back with me!"
When I heard this, I was immediately stunned. I thought to myself that we were already on Huangquan Road, how could we possibly go back?
But he nodded subconsciously, and then Zhang Tianyi seemed to smile.
Then I felt like something was about to come out of my throat. I felt very uncomfortable and couldn't speak.
