Chapter 121

Aoki saw that the key discarded by the cuckoo was in the water, but it was a little far from his cage, but closer to the crazy beggar's cage.

He tried to reach out and found that he couldn't reach it, so he had to stand up and say to the crazy beggar, "pick it up and throw it to me. I'll open the cage for you when I go out."

The crazy beggar was indifferent, just like the orangutan in the zoo. He held the iron bar in his hands and looked at the green wood quietly. His eyes seemed to say, "give up, stupid human."

Aoki said it twice and finally gave up the idea of reasoning with a madman.

The river began to rise slowly again. When it reached waist deep, the sound of water spray sounded in the distant water.

Aoki's mind suddenly flashed, and there were some things he had always wondered about, and he had a clue.

According to Dujuan, situ activated it, which means it has been abandoned for many years. This is probably not modern, because I really can't think of anyone who would waste their energy to get such a thing out of this deserted mountain.

The emergence of the Japanese seems to prove this. Aoki guessed that this was probably a prisoner of war camp established when Japan attacked Southern Yunnan. This kind of pig cage was used to hold prisoners of war.

If a group dream continues and the old dreamer dies, but new dreamers continue to join, then the whole dream can be preserved. You can see the ruins of old dreams in your dreams, and the basic rules will not change fundamentally.

In theory, if people all over the world join the same group dream, the dream can last for generations.

The only thing Aoki can't figure out is that if it was really left by the Japanese, it should have been abandoned for more than 70 years by now. In the past 70 years, no one has stayed here. How can this dream space and space rules be preserved? And what did the cuckoo trigger to make these Japanese appear again?

When he saw the spray on the water in the distance, he remembered.

There is an underground river leading to the outside world, which rises according to a certain law. Every time the water rises, many aquatic animals swim through here.

People dream, so do animals.

The cave is connected with the outside world, not only fish in the water, but also mice, snakes, toads, turtles, spiders, bats... There are so many animals in the mountains that you can't imagine.

The mental power of animals may not be as powerful as human beings, but when there are enough, they can also support this dream.

In this deserted 70-80 years, it was the animals in the mountains who kept this space. I'm afraid the person who designed the dream didn't expect it.

The water level is still rising, and dark shadows are swimming in the water.

"Come out," Aoki said to the water not far away before the water flooded his neck.

A dark shadow suddenly appeared on the water, and then there was a crash. A crow flew out of the water with a fish in its mouth.

"Wow ~ ~ ~ ah... My fish... Quack!"

As soon as the crow opened its mouth, the small fish in its mouth fell down. It plunged down, and soon came out of the water. It took a bigger fish in its mouth.

"If you eat fish again, I'll be drowned." when Aoki spoke, the water had reached his chin and was about to drown his mouth.

"Oh, you really have a back! It's not easy to travel. Why are you locked up?"

The fish fell into the water again, but this time the crow didn't care about it, but flapped his wings and flew towards the green wood. The iron railing of the cage could not stop its wide wings. It went in like an invisible ghost and stopped on the top of the green wood.

"Remember to take me with you next time you go away. Every time you shout and drink like this, I feel very uncomfortable!" the crow shook his feathers and complained, "uncomfortable! Uncomfortable!"

"Well, if you don't mind taking a plane, I can consider taking you." Aoki said, pushing open the door of the cage and went out.

"Take a plane? Why do you have to take a plane every time? You can't take a train or anything else? Why do you force crows to take a plane?"

"It's the same with crows on high-speed rail."

"Oh, well, well, you're right." the coal boss looked at the surrounding environment, "what's this place? Oh, it seems... A little strange..."

"You'll see something more strange later."

The green wood floated from the water, put his hands in his trouser pockets, stepped on the water and walked slowly towards the depths of the cave. The pull board tapped the water and splashed all the way.

The crazy beggar in the cage next door opened his eyes and looked at them foolishly. When the water level flooded his nose, he took a mouthful of water and remembered to grab the iron bar on the top of the cage, float his head from the water and cough violently.

……

"Then how did you get caged?" asked the crow.

"This is a group dream," Aoki said.

"What? Group dream? Many people's dreams? Oh ~ ~ ~" the crow turned around on the green wood head and looked at the iron cage behind him, "it doesn't matter. I mean, you look like... Er... Like an orangutan... Quack ha quack!!"

The crow couldn't help laughing.

"Have you eaten too well lately?" Aoki said.

"Oh, you really... Can't afford to joke... Quack... Well, well, I said, a group dream trapped you. Did you step back?"

"It must be that you don't practice hard and find an excuse to go so far to pick up girls? Well, I think I have to talk to Ruhua. If you add food to me, I can consider being a spy or something."

"Double sided tape?"

"Well, double-sided... What? Double-sided tape? What double-sided tape?" the crow tilted his head and thought about what green wood meant.

Aoki laughed.

"Where's the child?" the crow, who had been quiet for a moment, asked again.

"What child?"

"It's the one who wrote the diary. Wow, that diary is really moving. Oh, it's not only moving, but also bird! You see me crying. You don't know how sad I am. I'm thin. I need nutrition, quack, I need sauce elbow to make up for it... Quack..."

The crow kept blaring.

After two turns, the underground river passed under a rock wall, and the iron cage ended here.

Aoki estimated that the total number of cages along the way was no less than 200. This is more than he expected. Even in the POW camp, there is no need to make so many separate cages, right?

The whole karst cave is like a maze, one hole is connected to the next. If there is no underground river, it is easy to get lost. In some holes, boxes of materials are stacked with the words "dangerous" or "forbidden" in Japanese.

The box was covered with dust and cobwebs. When Aoki walked by, the footsteps startled many small animals hiding in the gap between the boxes.

A cry for help came not far from the front: "help! Let go of me! Let go..."

Then there was a group of men's laughter: "flower girl, yo West!"

Aoki hurried a few steps around a large rock pillar and saw that in another cave, four or five Japanese soldiers were pressing the cuckoo to the ground and stripping her clothes.

The cave is not big, but it is connected with a larger karst cave. There was a fire. There was an iron pot on the fire. Seven or eight Japanese soldiers sat around the fire, talking and laughing.

"Hey, hurry up, we need to play." a soldier shouted at the cave here.

"Ah, you should tell them to be light and don't kill people."

"Just wait slowly!" a Japanese soldier who was taking off his pants responded.

"Don't worry, none of them can last a minute."

The Japanese soldiers in the cave over there laughed.
