Domineering exposed

"Fatty?—"

Lu Yuchen stood up, took two steps outside, hesitated for a while, and then called in a low voice: "Mandela?"

No one responded.

Suddenly there was the sound of stones rolling down above his head, he bent down nimbly and pulled out the dagger and laid it across his chest, and the surroundings suddenly returned to tranquility.

It was only then that Lu Yuchen discovered that the fat man had placed the cage containing the two big roosters on a certain protruding rock, and the sound of gravel was caused by the chickens being grilled at that moment, which was strange to say. The two roosters seemed to be very spiritual, and when Lu Yuchen turned his head to look at them, he also raised his head. The mung bean-sized eyes stared at him non-stop through the metal cage. The eyes were cold and empty, but they were defensive. laughing.

...what the hell am I doing...it's just two chickens.Lu Yuchen shook his head amusedly, and looked away. After all, these were the only two living things left around.

The smile on the corner of his mouth gradually became bitter, and Lu Yuchen found that his mood became more and more heavy. After thinking for a while, he turned his head and began to check the equipment - there was nothing missing in the bag, and everyone's bag was placed in the original place. Even Lantus' Chicago typewriter was placed nicely against the wall, away from the campfire.Picking up a wolf-eye flashlight, Lu Yuchen weighed it in his hand, and finally felt that he had hands and feet to jump and jump, so it was better not to sit still and wait for death.

He took out a pack of marking powder for military use from his bag, and he walked all the way down the river bank.

The lower you go, the darker the surrounding becomes. In the end, the only source of light around you is the wolf-eye flashlight—except for the brightly illuminated road ahead that seems endless until it leads to the gate of hell, Lu and Chen are completely in the dark. in the dark.The rushing water of the dark river at his feet made a rushing sound, but even so, Lu Yuchen could still hear his own breathing and heartbeat clearly.

He didn't remember how long he had been walking, and the marking powder in his hand had been used up by a third. Just when he was hesitating whether to turn back, the flashlight flickered, and he seemed to see a person on the other side of the river.

A person suddenly appeared in this dark place, Lu Yuchen's scalp went numb and he almost threw the flashlight in his hand.

"Who?"

he whispered.

The man on the other side didn't make a sound.

Lu Yuchen pointed the flashlight there without hesitation. Because of some scruples, the light of the flashlight did not completely shine on the man's face, but slid across the river surface, and first shone on the man's feet. Seeing the familiar pair of hiking boots, Lu Yuchen was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and dimmed the light of the wolf-eye flashlight in his hand, and then he shone the light of the flashlight on the man's face——

"Little fat?"

It was Wang Aiguo who came.

At this moment, he was a little strange.It was rare for Lu Yuchen to see the expressionless look of the fat man. Under the dim light of the picked-up torch, that chubby face was half-lit and half-sleeping, and without the usual rich facial expressions, there was even a gloomy look on it. Terrible to come.Frowning slightly, Lu Yuchen felt something was wrong in his heart, but he still asked without giving up: "How did you run to the opposite side? Where are the others?"

The fat man still didn't speak, he stood where he was, looking at Lu Yuchen with empty eyes, if it wasn't for his stomach still rising and falling weakly, it would be as if someone had killed him and put the corpse there alive—— Wang Aiguo refused to speak all the time. There was a river between them, and Lu and Chen were helpless. He turned on the light distractedly. Suddenly, he saw Wang Aiguo's hand move.

That's a very subtle movement.

As if a corpse that had been frozen for thousands of years moved, he slowly and stiffly raised his hand, pointing directly behind Lu Yuchen. Fatty, with a ferocious smile on his face, raised a bright dagger high behind him——

pop-

There was a faint itching on his face, and Lu Yuchen seemed to hear a few people talking softly in his ear.

"—Captain?—Captain?—"

"Get out of the way—Lu?...Wake up, you're having a nightmare...Damn it, he's running a fever, bring antibiotics, Lantes, go boil some water."

I vaguely heard the Russian man answer in a low voice, and the sound of footsteps gradually drifting away came from my ears.Lu Yuchen frowned slightly, and finally opened his eyes slowly under a faint light.

"I'm fine..." He raised his hand and feebly patted away the big hand that was trying to open his eyelids. A strong hand behind him supported his back so that he could sit up successfully. Lu Yuchen blinked and felt his head After regaining consciousness, he looked around, but he didn't find Fatty, and the nightmare from just now resounded for no reason. His heart sank, and he asked hoarsely, "Where is Fatty?"

The surroundings fell silent.

Even Yao didn't say anything about the fact that he looked for the fat man as soon as he opened his eyes.

After maintaining such a deathlike silence for a while, Lu Yuchen felt a pair of warm hands slide down his spine, and a deep male voice rang in his ears: "It's gone."

Lu Yuchen calmly turned his face to look at Yao, and asked expressionlessly, "What do you mean by 'disappearing'?"

"I found out when I woke up. You were in a deep sleep at that time." Yao frowned slightly, and touched Lu Yuchen's chin with a little anxiety, "It's very strange, even if there is a little noise, I will wake up, but I didn’t even just now—it was supposed to be Wang Aiguo’s turn to watch the night after Lantes, and after they changed shifts, Lantes also said that he slept deeply.”

The Russian man came back with a jar of water. He put the tin can on the fire and sat down: "Both Mandela and I felt something was wrong."

"A big living person has disappeared. If this is still right, it will be a disaster." Lu Yuchen rubbed his temples with a headache, and put down his hands. Even though he now feels that his entire stomach has fallen to the bottom of his feet, he has no choice but to Accept that, "We've got to find him—"

"After Alice came back." Yao added lightly.

Lu Yuchen paused, glanced at the woman who was still in a state of ecstasy with her eyes slightly closed as before, as if she was asleep, and finally nodded with difficulty - it was inconvenient for them to do anything with a semi-conscious person , Fatty didn't know where he went, but they couldn't rule out the situation that he finally found out that everyone was gone when he came back by himself.

This decision did not make things any easier.

Lantus flicked the fire again and again, and the water in the jar quickly boiled.Lu Yuchen took out the utensils and shared some with each other. Everyone sat around the bonfire in silence, thinking about their own things. Yao insisted on putting one hand on Lu Yuchen's waist, as if he would disappearing--

But no one is in the mood to joke about that right now.

Lu Yuchen's mind was spinning rapidly, and every time he thought of a plan, he quickly denied it in his head. His hands and feet were cold, and the hot water in his hand did not make him feel warm until the small iron cup was in his hand. Slowly cool down—

In the darkness, there was a sound of footsteps.

Lu Yuchen froze for a moment, then raised his stiff neck.

The fat and tall figure gradually came out of the darkness without haste.

The arm that was originally supported on the waist became stronger, and Lu Yuchen quickly glanced at Yao, who frowned slightly, and his thin lips were tightly pursed, showing a thoughtful expression.

Wang Aiguo walked back as if nothing had happened, and then sat down beside Lantes: "Ah, they are all here."

No one answered him, and everyone was staring at his face.The fat man smiled: "Why are you looking at me?"

Lu Yuchen opened his mouth and found that his throat was terribly dry. He held the cup to the edge and took a sip of the water that had already become cold. Only then did he feel that he had regained some energy. His brows were still furrowed, a little indifferent Said: "Where have you been?"

The fat man looked up at him, and for a moment, a trace of strangeness flashed across his eyes before regaining his composure. He shrugged and smiled at Lu Yuchen in embarrassment: "Ah, I just went to pee—"

Lu Yuchen gave a numb "Oh", looked away, and said lightly, "Don't run around next time, you're on watch at night, do you have any discipline?"

The fat man scratched his head and said with a loud smile, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't hold it anymore."
