Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 2: Mental destruction

The search and rescue work in Niutoushan ended after three weeks. The ending was regrettable. Ji Yuan, a 24-year-old young man, could not be rescued in the end. The main cause of death was lack of water, that is, being thirsty. dead.

According to the two search and rescue team members who discovered Ji Yuan, it was a bit dark at the time and could not see clearly, but when Ji Yuan was first discovered, he could still speak. After he fainted, he was sent to the hospital as soon as possible, but he died on the way to the hospital. He had already expired and could not be revived.

This incident had a considerable impact on both Niutoushan and Ji Yuan’s company, but the ones who suffered the biggest blow were Ji Yuan’s parents and relatives.

It’s just that I can’t see all this.

. . .

My whole body aches so much...I can't move my body...

This is the first feeling after Ji Yuan’s consciousness awakened.

My mind was hazy, my thinking was not very sharp, and my only thoughts were filled with pain that felt like needles all over my body.

I can't move my body, I can't speak, I can't see. I can't even feel the outside world. I just feel more and more intense pain.

I don’t know how long it took, but the torturous pain finally subsided.

After this ordeal, Ji Yuan collapsed on the ground like a puddle of mud, panting. After relaxing for a while, Ji Yuan felt that something was wrong.

The feeling underneath me was hard, cold and relatively flat. It was definitely not lying on a bed, but rather like lying on the floor. The surrounding temperature was a bit low, and a slight cold wind blew from time to time, making Ji Yuan shiver from the cold.

But he could only shiver spontaneously. Ji Yuan found that he still couldn't move. He couldn't even open his eyes except for breathing. This feeling was a bit like the legendary "ghost pressing on the bed", but It was different, at least I didn't feel any special pressure on my body.

After regaining the smoothness of his thoughts and the sense of physical touch, Ji Yuan has been in a state of panic.

Obviously, I was not at home or in the hospital. There was no sound of anyone around. If there were any sounds, I could only hear some insects and the occasional bird call, and my nose could smell a faint musty smell.

This made Ji Yuan couldn't help but wonder if he was lying on a wild road, or somewhere worse.

It's even possible that he was kidnapped by someone, drugged and dumped in a warehouse in an abandoned house.

I don’t know how much time has passed in the uneasiness. No one came, no cars, just the same silence.

Slowly, Ji Yuan discovered that his hearing seemed to have become very sharp, and the different sounds of insects and birds became extremely clear.

Sometimes, if Ji Yuan is not affected by distracting thoughts and uneasiness in his heart, when he hears the chirping of insects and birds, he can more accurately feel where they are, and even vaguely know how far away they are.

However, although this feeling of superior hearing is magical, Ji Yuan is getting more and more panicked and irritable.

Ji Yuan doesn’t know how long has passed, but it always feels like a long, long time has passed. During this period, no one has appeared around him, even if it’s really a kidnapper!

In addition, unable to move his body or open his eyes, this feeling is more terrifying than being locked in a small dark room. In order to prevent himself from being driven crazy, Ji Yuan can only keep thinking about the problem, recalling and thinking about what happened in his heart What.

Skipping past the time when he was unconscious, his last memory stayed with the two people he met by the creek. When he passed out, he could still hear their exclamations.

The two said they were searching for the missing person, and it had been more than half a month. Judging from the uniforms they were wearing, they might be search and rescue team members, but why were they here instead of in the hospital?

Did something happen in the middle, or was there something wrong with the two search and rescue team members themselves?

These questions can only be thought about and speculated on, and the thoughts can be put elsewhere.

The most important thing that cannot be ignored before this is naturally the weird chess game. Without that chess game, none of this would have happened.

If the previous Ji Yuan was an atheist, then the current Ji Yuan has obviously changed his views.

Whether it was the disappearance of the company camp after coming out, or the words of the two search and rescue team members, as well as the changes in the body in a short period of time, these are all facts experienced by Ji Yuan. The first two may be fake, but the body The changes are real.

In other words, in the eyes of outsiders at that time, I had indeed been missing for more than half a month, but my own feeling was that only a few minutes or even less had passed.

This reminds Ji Yuan of a story his grandfather told him when he was a child:

(Legend has it that in ancient times there was a woodcutter who went up the mountain to cut firewood and met two old men playing chess in the mountains.

So the woodcutter put the firewood and ax next to the tree, and stood aside to watch the two old men play for a while. The old man even smiled and broke off half a peach for him to quench his thirst and satisfy his hunger.

After watching for a long time, an old man suddenly turned his head and said to the woodcutter: "It's time for you to go home."

The woodcutter was shocked to realize that it was getting late, so he reached for the load of firewood and the axe, but suddenly found that the dry firewood was gone, and the handle of the firewood ax was rotten, leaving only a rusty ax head.

Some surprised and incomprehensible woodcutters hurried home along the familiar yet unfamiliar mountain road. The appearance of the village has changed a lot, and it is even rare to see a familiar face in the village.

After careful questioning, the woodcutter found out that he had stayed in the mountains for sixty years. His family all thought that he had been killed by an animal and that his parents and elders had already passed away...)

This story is one of Ji Yuan’s favorite stories when he was a child. The old man in the story is said to be two immortals, and there is also a famous Lanke Mountain in the place where the story originated.

The place Ji Yuan and his colleagues went camping was naturally not Lanke Mountain but Niutou Mountain. But the ancient trees, chess games and rusty axes Ji Yuan saw all compared with the legend of Lanke chess game. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuａｎ. com

According to this, it is not difficult to explain why Ji Yuan felt that only a short while had passed, but more than half a month had passed outside.

Furthermore, Ji Yuan’s luck is both better and worse than that of the woodcutter. The good thing is that he came out not long after. Less than a month has passed since he was outside, and his life has not been affected much. The bad thing is that there is no immortal to feed him. What a panacea, so it’s like not eating or drinking for more than half a month. God bless me if I don’t die immediately.

Ji Yuan, who was thinking so at the moment, didn’t know that his original self was actually dead long ago.

But even so, it didn’t take long to think about all this. Ji Yuan was quickly enveloped by loneliness, fear and irritability. Even if he forced himself to think more about more problems, he still felt that sense of depression. Still getting more serious.

No one spoke, no footsteps, no one came...

The time is so long, no one, still no one...

As he became more and more anxious, Ji Yuan had now lost the concept of time. He didn't know whether it was an hour or a day. He could no longer calm down by forcing himself.

No wonder that in some Western prisons, being locked up in a dark room is a severe punishment for prisoners. This is a serious mental torture for people.

Now Ji Yuan's state is not worrying about who kidnaps him, but completely hoping that the robbers will come soon, even if he hears their curses or kicks him.

Still no one, still no one came! ! !

‘Come on, someone! ! ! Come find someone soon! ! Anyone can do it! ! ! ’

Ji Yuan roared in his heart countless times. What he was most afraid of was that there were no robbers at all. He was so alone in the wilderness, and no one except wild beasts, snakes and insects would come...
