[Tomb Notes bg] Lost Notes

Nan Xing's heart twitched suddenly, blood rushed straight to his brain, his pupils constricted, and the hand holding the phone was so hard that the knuckles turned white.

What does something wrong mean?It's been a few days since this message was sent out, so what's going on now?

Nan Xing quickly called Wu Xie, closed his eyes and waited.

"What happened to the patriarch?" As soon as the phone was connected, Nan Xing's eyes suddenly opened and his voice was hoarse.

"He and Hei Xiazi entered Shouting Spring, which is a cavity in the underground river. If there is a sound in that cavity, the river will flood back in large quantities, submerging the entire cavity, and the water will start to recede after two months. After they went in, for some reason, the lake suddenly began to flood in large quantities. The second uncle’s people couldn’t save them.” Wu Xie’s voice was calm, “Xiaohua’s rescue team has already gone. My second uncle doesn’t allow me to go To die, cut off all my resources, including people and money."

"I still have about a million dollars, which are stuck in the bedside table in my room, and the password is 150817." Nan Xing felt a dark fire burning in her body, but she was sweating coldly all over her body, and even her voice could not stop trembling , "If it's not enough, I'll find a way."

"That's enough. Fatty and I will set off first. We will leave a mark for you when we find the entrance of Shouting Spring. Just follow along to find it." Wu Xie said and paused, "Don't worry, I believe he will be fine. .”

"En." Nan Xing hung up the phone, put the phone into the bag, leaned on the table in front of the seat tremblingly with her thin arms, and buried her face deeply in her palms.

Accompanied by a whistle, the train rushed into the tunnel in an instant, the metal collision sound of the wheel rim pressing on the track, surrounded by the wind sound caused by the speeding train, reflected and merged in the tunnel, drowning Nan Xing's deep breathing choked in his throat .

After getting off the train, Nan Xing took a taxi and went straight to the airport.

Her complexion was pale, and the glimmer of hope in her chest was like the last line of defense. She desperately blocked all the turbulent undercurrent of negative emotions behind her mind, allowing her to proceed with everything that followed calmly and mechanically.

She looked at the location Wu Xie had sent her, which was an earthen building in the area where the entrance of Leicheng had been obtained from Boss Jiao.Shouting Spring should be the exact entrance to Leicheng.

Combined with the situation Wu Xie described to her, if she wants to go there, she first needs to prepare diving equipment and bring enough oxygen supply.

"He and the blind man entered Shouting Spring."

"After they went in, for some reason, the lake suddenly began to flood back in large quantities. The second uncle's people couldn't save them at all."

Wu Xie's voice on the phone echoed in his ears again, tearing at the last line of defense in his mind.

Zhang Qiling was her goal in life after the struggle with the Wang family. She had sworn in her heart that she would protect him for the rest of her life.

But now, let alone guarding, she doesn't even know where he is or what happened.

This sense of anxiety caused some blurred pictures to appear in front of her eyes, and she was in the same state of fear as she is now.

At the same time, more fragmentary images began to flash through her mind frequently, like a movie fast-moving.Those memories that she had forgotten for many years flooded into her brain like a tide.

She closed her eyes and curled up in the seat, feeling everything about Zhang Qiling in these memories.

"Why... still come?" The familiar voice came from her arms.

She heard her choked up voice: "In order to be able to rush over to save you."

Then, she saw that handsome but pale face, and she reached out to touch it, but all she felt was a void.

Wait for me, wait for me a little longer.

I will definitely find you again.

.........

"Patriarch...patriarch...little brother..." her lips murmured repeatedly, as if these words had the same ability to make her feel peaceful like him.

She pulled up the light shield and curled up in the seat. In an instant, the worries, longings, and heartaches piled up in her chest broke through the last line of defense, penetrated into every cell of the brain, and spread along the nerve endings to every part of the limbs. Overwhelmed all the senses.

Her eye sockets were suddenly red, and tears welled up.She took a deep breath and forcefully forced back the tears. There was an unbearable soreness in her nasal cavity, her heart was torn apart, and her breath seemed to be full of the bitter taste of tears.

She had no time to grieve now, tears were the last thing to help.

She needs to do everything next with calmness and precision.

After the plane landed, she hurried to the tulou where the shouting spring was located, replenishing equipment along the way.

It was already the next morning when she arrived at the village where the earthen building was located.Due to the development of tourism in recent years, the earth building has now been transformed into a homestay, and the parking lot is full of Beijing cars, which should be left by Xiaohua's rescue team.

There are five floors in the earth building. According to the girl in charge of the cash register, the first batch of people from Beijing were all on the fifth floor.

The doors and windows on the fifth floor were all covered, so you couldn't see what was going on inside, and I heard that the people on the fifth floor didn't come out after they came.

She knew that Xiao Hua liked to act at night, and it was possible that when his team came out to act, they avoided everyone's attention.

But she believed in another situation. When she came, she noticed that the shape of the whole tulou was like an upside-down bell. This tulou might be a huge sound-collecting device.Therefore, the entrance to Shouting Spring should be deep in the earth building, so Xiaohua and the others don't have to come out at all.

Moreover, she didn't see Wu Xie and Fatty either. It is very likely that they have already entered the earth building.

Nan Xing took advantage of the early morning to enter the fifth floor, she had nothing to worry about, she was not Wu Xie, she was not banned by Wu Erbai, even if she saw Xiao Hua, no one would drive her back to preserve her health.

To her surprise, the rooms on the fifth floor were empty. She checked around and found a hidden simple staircase in one of the rooms, like a chimney.

All the way to the end, after coming out of the secret passage, there is a cave with very weak lights, and rescue equipment is piled up all around, but there is no one there.

In the center of the cave, there is a hole surrounded by stones, which is just big enough for a person to go in. Nan Xing got in, and after climbing for a while, he came to a slightly open space.

There is a wet old well in the space, and there are many old bricks, which have been worn out without edges and corners.There is a gap on the wall of the well, which goes deep into the rock of the mountain. This should be the entrance to Shouting Spring.

The mood suddenly became a little excited, maybe, she was not far away from him.

Climbing down from the wellhead to the entrance, the entrance is completely irregular, it is a mountain passage, and after entering, I found that the foot feels wrong.

Looking down, all the dead people were in the cracks among the rocks at the bottom of the gap. They were neatly stacked in the gaps, and they were used to fill up the road.

Nan Xing recognized Xiaohua's rescue team, and they all died.

Hundreds of people died.

The originally bright mood suddenly became tense again. The situation here is much more complicated than she imagined.

With Xiao Hua's judgment and ability to act, who would have the ability to kill all of his rescue team?

So what about Wu Xie and Fatty at this moment?Have they met this group of people?Have you encountered any danger?

There was a slight movement from outside the gap, Nan Xing didn't have time to stop, she could tell from the movement that many people had already entered from outside.

It is very possible that the entrance left here is just a bait, and the people who killed the Xiaohua rescue team are waiting to catch the turtles in the urn and kill all the people who come in.

For now, we can only move on.Nan Xingmao bent down and continued to crawl inside. She heard the movement from behind getting closer.

However, after she climbed about 500 meters, the movement behind her disappeared.

This is not a safe signal, and those people will not just let her go.They no longer move forward, there is only one possibility, and the front is a dead end.

No matter whether her guess is right or not, one thing is for sure, only by going forward, will there be a chance to find Zhang Qiling.

She raised the equipment on her body and crawled forward again.

Suddenly, she saw a familiar mark drawn with blood on the stone wall.

This is the mark in the Zhang family's password system, and whoever left this mark knows who it is without even thinking about it.

The sign means: Farewell.

Zhang Qiling would not say the word farewell lightly, using this word is a very serious situation, which shows that he was not sure about the situation inside at that time.

She followed the mark and found that there were blood marks left by him all the way on the stone wall.

It has been a long time since he used his own blood to do anything, unless he encountered a very dangerous situation at that time.

Nan Xing carefully looked at these marks and found that the latter marks were written in "Knock Knock Words".

Here is an explanation of "Knock Knock Words". This is a set of codes similar to the Zhang family's password system that the four of them figured out during their lives in Yucun. It has no logic and cannot be deciphered. Only the four of them can understand it.

Therefore, the following mark is the message left by Zhang Qiling to the three of them.

The mark showed that besides Shouting Spring, there was another entrance, and Zhang Qiling and the others also left a mark near the other entrance.

But what is certain at present is that Zhang Qiling and Heixiazi entered through the entrance of Shouting Spring, and the specific reason is still unknown.

Nan Xing was sorting out his thoughts. Suddenly, thick smoke rose from the entire passage. After inhaling the nasal cavity, he could clearly feel the tingling sensation from the mucous membrane. This is...poisonous gas.

What the shouting spring spouts is not water, but poisonous gas.

That's why the group of people didn't chase after them just now. The poisonous gas here is deadly.

The smoke blurred his vision, but Nan Xing still vaguely saw the corpse in the passage ahead.

She covered her mouth and nose and crawled over. The corpse here was not from Xiaohua's rescue team, but from Wu Erbai's.

There were bloody palm prints all over the stone walls, and the eyes and faces of these corpses were all covered with coagulated blood.Although there were festers on the bodies of these corpses, there was no damage where there was blood.

The blood did not come from them, but from Zhang Qiling.

Qilin blood can resist this kind of poisonous gas, which is why Nan Xing stayed in it for so long but was unscathed.

When Zhang Qiling and the others entered Shouting Spring and encountered poisonous gas, in order to save the lives of others and prevent them from going blind, Zhang Qiling smeared his blood on their bodies and eyes.But as the team deepened, they were eventually killed by the poisonous gas constantly spewing out.

As for Zhang Qiling and Heixiazi, they should have gone deep into the inside of the shouting spring.

Nan Xing continued to move forward in the passage, and she could no longer see the corpse, and there were no blood marks on the stone wall. Not long after, she reached the end of the passage.

This is a cavity, and further on, there is a bottomless underground water area. If you want to move forward, you have to dive into the water to find the entrance.

Nan Xing took a flashlight to look around the cavity, and found a figure curled up in a corner beside it.Because the mist of the poisonous gas had not dissipated, she couldn't identify that person.

She walked towards the figure, only to find that this man was a fat man!

He was unconscious in the corner, but fortunately he still had a pulse.She looked to the side, but she didn't see Wu Xie.

How could the fat man be here by himself?Did you get separated from Wu Xie?Or did the two of them split up?

Although he has used his clothes to block all places where he might be exposed to poisonous gas, the effect is minimal.

Nan Xing drew out the knife and made a slash on his hand, spreading all the blood that flowed out on the fat man's exposed skin and clothes.

After waiting for a while, the fat man woke up. As soon as he woke up, he began to briefly talk to Nan Xing about his and Wu Xie's situation these days.

When he entered the entrance of Shouting Spring with Wu Xie, he met a group of well-trained men in black in the passage. After fighting and continuous explosions, Wu Xie stayed to confirm the identity of the men in black and let the fat man continue forward.

After he found the little brother's mark in the passage, he notified Wu Xie with the "Knock Knock Words" blown out of the bomb. At this time, Wu Xie should have found the entrance according to the marks left by the little brother around the entrance there. .

"We have to dive through this water." Nan Xing said as he took off the scuba on his back and gave it to the fat man.

"You take the scuba, fat man, I can hold my breath and dive over." The fat man didn't answer.

"Your lungs are almost poisoned now, how can you hold your breath, don't be brave, take them with you." Nan Xing said and was about to enter the water, "If I can't hold it anymore, you can change the scuba lungs It's not too late for me to help."

Before the fat man could speak, Nan Xing had plunged into the water and began to dive forward.

The fat man had no choice but to put on scuba and dive into the water.

After diving for about 10 minutes, they arrived at another cavity. There was a mark left by Zhang Qiling on the stone wall of the cavity, pointing to the direction of the next step.

The blood that Nan Xing smeared on the fat man was basically gone after diving, and there was also poisonous gas in the cavity. Nan Xing smeared his own blood on the fat man again.

They just moved one by one cavity, fortunately the distance between every two cavities is still within the time range that Nanxing can hold its breath.

But the oxygen in the cylinder was still exhausted, they threw away the scuba, and they all dived and moved forward again.

Nan Xing lost a lot of blood, and her body began to lack oxygen. Her vision began to blur, and her body was swimming forward entirely by will.

After swimming for an unknown amount of time, Nan Xing saw the light shining through the water in front of him, and they were about to arrive.

Hope rose and accumulated in her heart, and soon, she would be able to find Zhang Qiling.Thinking of this, it seemed as if all the fatigue in his body was instantly dispelled, and every muscle in his body burst out with maximum strength.

In the blurred vision, Nan Xing saw someone swimming towards them in the light, the familiar figure swimming towards her, even though she was close to the edge of losing consciousness, she still recognized it at a glance, it was Zhang Qiling.

She treaded water hard, swam toward him, and held out her hand to him.

Zhang Qiling gently held her hand, and then carried her upstream from behind her.

From the corner of his eye, he saw that the fat man was also being pulled to swim towards the surface of the water. At this moment, his tense nerves finally completely relaxed, and Nan Xing passed out in Zhang Qiling's arms.

Regaining consciousness again, the first thing Nan Xing felt was the refreshing breath that belonged to Zhang Qiling that had been haunting her these days. This breath came from the gentle but slightly cool touch on her lips, and penetrated little by little in her breath. .

The alveoli and heart were simultaneously filled with his oxygen-wrapped breath, and the joy of regaining the loss flooded into the brain instantly before the relief of escaping death.

She couldn't hear any sound, and couldn't see anything, all her senses were focused on the gentle touch from his lips.

All the emotions that had been accumulated for a long time burst out at this moment. She really missed him so much, and at this moment, he was by her side, within reach.

She will never leave him again. This fear of losing him happened once ten years ago, and it will come again ten years later. She will never experience it again.

Wherever he is going in the future, she will follow whatever she says.

Thinking of this, the tip of her small tongue drove straight in, fiercely sucking oxygen from his lips that were giving her artificial respiration.His body froze suddenly, but unexpectedly he didn't push her away.

Zhang Qiling looked at Nan Xing whose heartbeat had recovered, she squinted her eyes and sucked his lips fiercely and jerkyly, thin drops of water hung on her slender eyelashes and slipped little by little.

In the eyes of others, this is just an unfinished artificial respiration, but the real situation is only clear to the two reunited after a long absence.

Reason told Zhang Qiling that he should push her away, but her lips and tongue with the familiar fragrance made him intoxicated.

Just before he couldn't bear to respond to her, he retreated a short distance and let go of her pursuit.

Nan Xing finally slightly opened her eyes that had been tightly closed. Her eyes were filled with sparkling water, and the tears she had held back for a long time slid down her cheeks. She followed his retreat and went up to meet him, hugging him tightly. , her lips whispered in his ear: "Don't go... I'm afraid I won't find you..."
