Chapter 27 Sister-in-law
Only when you lose something do you know how to cherish it. This statement is indeed true.
Some things, when they are always there, often do not feel how important they are, and may even feel annoying after seeing them too much.
Like some people, if he were alive, you would find that he has problems all over his body, but when he is really facing death and is about to completely disappear from this world, people will remember the good things about him.
Zhou Chai Yu Wenwan is such a person.
Wen Wan hadn't done physical work for a long time. After digging for a while, beads of sweat rolled down her cheeks.
The entrance of the passage collapsed inward, and no one knew to what extent it had collapsed. A group of people dug for half a day but still could not dig out an exit.
Gao Ling was already panicking, his face was alternating between blue and white, his eyes became empty, and the hand holding the shovel kept shaking.
The other young men were not much better than him. They were extremely brave when they killed the enemies before, but now they all showed fear.
When Wen Wan looked up, she saw the expressions of the group of men.
I didn't expect that Achai was so important in their minds.
Finally, Gao Ling was the first to break down. He threw the shovel in his hand, jumped on his horse and ran out.
"I'll mobilize troops. I don't believe the entire border town garrison can't rescue those people!"
Wen Wan felt that Gao Ling was crazy.
Not to mention that he is just a businessman, how can he mobilize the border town garrison? Even if he got the troops, it would not be enough to quench the immediate thirst.
But how much rationality can a person who has suffered an emotional breakdown have left?
At the horizon, the dawn is approaching, and a hint of white is spreading outward from the top of the mountain.
It will be dawn soon.
Wen Wan lowered her head and looked like she was crying. A young man had noticed her abnormality and was about to come over to comfort her.
But she suddenly raised her head, picked up a shovel and ran towards the main gate of the Niangniang Temple.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" the young man behind her growled worriedly.
If the term "sister-in-law" appeared at any other time, Wen Wan would argue with her.
It's a matter of no status and a woman's reputation is at stake, how can she shout that?
But now, Wen Wan was preoccupied with something and had no time to care about what kind of relationship these young men thought she had with Achai.
She rushed to the entrance of the Niangniang Temple and lay on the ground to check each stone step.
Suddenly, she laughed crazily.
“Found it!”
“It really is!”
Wen Wan picked up the shovel and used all her strength to pry open the stone steps, revealing a small hole two feet long and one foot wide.
When the young man who called her "sister-in-law" came over, he saw Wen Wan crawling in through the small hole without hesitation.
"Wide the hole a little wider, I'll go in and find someone first!"
Only a gentle voice came out of the cave.
The young man responded blankly and subconsciously followed her instructions.
*
It was completely dark in the tomb.
In extreme darkness, fear often comes from uncertainty about unknown things.
Wen Wan crawled forward bit by bit along the small hole, calculating the possible architectural structure of the cemetery as she crawled.
At this moment, she was extremely grateful that when she was a graduate student, she had studied the relationship between the Five Elements and the Eight Diagrams and the construction of cemeteries.
》She spent three months studying literature for this paper.
Now, the possible map of the cemetery structure is deeply embedded in her mind.
If Achai collapsed into that passage, he would most likely get stuck at the intersection of the lower right tomb chamber.
Wen Wan didn't know how long she had been climbing. She thought she must have reached her destination, but it was pitch black and she didn't know if Achai was around.
"Heavenly Bodhisattva, you can only touch it with your hands."
In the ancient tomb, exploring this cemetery with your hands, who knows what is inside?
My scalp tingles when I think about it.
"Ah Chai, Ah Chai, I really risked everything for you!"
"You must stay alive, don't let my efforts go to waste."
"Although you have a bad temper, you are a pretty good person. You are good to your subordinates, to Shen Zhou and his men, to the people, and to me... you are pretty good too."
"Why do I feel more and more that you are a reliable person the more I talk to you?"
Wen Wan tried to calm her fear by talking to herself, but her voice still trembled.
"How about, wait until I find you and we make a deal. You change your bad temper and we can live in peace."
"Actually, you don't need to use threats or bribes to get me to help you find the ancient tomb. I'm just a beauty addict. You just need to use your beauty to seduce me, and I won't be able to resist..."
Wen Wan kept talking about something else, just wanting to make some noise to make this place less scary.
She was completely unaware that every word she said was heard clearly.
"oh?"
A very soft voice sounded, and Wen Wan was so scared that her hair stood on end.
She screamed, "Who? Who's there?"
Shen Yu coughed weakly, but there was a hint of laughter in his tone.
"Besides me, do you think there are other living people in this cemetery?"
Wen Wan was stunned, "That's true."
She crawled towards the direction of the sound, not knowing where her hand touched him, but his whole body froze for a moment.
Wen Wan: "How are you? Are you okay? Can you move?"
Shen Yu's voice became hoarse, and he raised his hand to hold her wrist and took her hand away.
"You can't touch every part of a man's body. Be careful next time. Don't touch me randomly. I can still use some strength."
Touching randomly?
In the darkness, Wen Wan widened her eyes.
She bent her fingers, and the fingertips still retained the touch of something just now.
Then, her face turned red instantly.
It's over, she felt her hands were dirty!
Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, Shen Yu guessed something and said, "Okay, don't be shy, I didn't say anything."
What? Do you still want to call her a hooligan?
Wen Wan was furious, "I should have known not to come and save you!"
The tense atmosphere of life and death was destroyed by him.
Shen Yu smiled, his chest filled with an inexplicable joy.
This was really a very strange experience for him. He had faced life and death moments countless times, but never like this moment. Facing danger, he could still feel a touch of comfort in his heart.
"Boss, sister-in-law? Are you still there?"
There was a faint sound coming from the small cave.
"Here." Shen Yu shouted outside, then said to Wen Wan: "My leg is injured and I can't move around easily. I may need your help."
Wen Wan calmed down and said, "Okay."
The two of them groped their way along the direction Wen Wan came from, and after half a cup of tea, they finally reached the entrance of the small cave.
The light fell through the cave entrance, making Wenwan's face pale.
Shen Yu glanced at her sideways. Was it his illusion?
Even though she is covered in dirt, she is still cute?
After a brief moment of astonishment, he withdrew his gaze and gave instructions to his subordinates outside.
"Pull your sister-in-law up first."
sister in law……
Wen Wan: “???”
She finally came to her senses and realized what was wrong, and slapped Shen Yu on the forehead.
