Rebirth of an Old Farmer: Escape from Famine with Children and Grandchildren
Chapter 223 Attachment
The two children seemed to have adapted to this environment. They loosened their hands and ran towards the light source like happy little birds, their laughter clear and full of childlike innocence.
When I got closer, I found that there was indeed a large hole, through which sunlight could shine into this dark space unhindered.
The cave is surrounded by huge rocks, and there are no trees or flowers growing here. It looks very desolate and lonely.
Looking back, the river surface was still sparkling, reflecting circles of bright halos on the tall and smooth stone wall opposite.
After staring at the scene for a while, Sun Wan's expression gradually became serious.
She noticed that on the stone wall on one side of the underground river, there was an irregular but clearly recognizable golden inverted triangle pattern.
As the gently flowing river ripples slightly, the golden inverted triangle also sways slightly, as if it has life and sways on the wall.
Sun Wan stared at the inverted triangle, confusion and curiosity in her eyes, watching it sway between the mountain walls.
She turned her head again and glanced at the small hole not far away. She could still see the bright sunlight outside shining through there, continuing to illuminate the calm mirror-like surface of the river below. The reflected light formed countless dazzling rays of light around her.
In the distance, you can see two little girls, Linglong and Miaomiao, playing with water excitedly, splashing a series of clear and transparent water, chasing and playing with each other, and laughing constantly.
As she slowly walked towards the location of the inverted triangle that had just caught her attention, Sun Wan felt a little puzzled: What kind of physical principle could allow ordinary reflected light to form such a regular and unique shape that changes over time?
Standing close to the rock, she slowly stretched out her slightly rough palms and gently but firmly pressed them on the place where the golden figure had been moving.
By carefully feeling and tracing the outline along the edge with her fingers, she tried to explore further, and was surprised to find that she had actually depicted a perfectly circular area.
Just as she withdrew her hands from touching the wall and lowered her head to carefully examine the faint whitish substance left in her palms, she inadvertently looked up at the golden mark that once existed on the wall - but found that the mysterious triangle had long disappeared without a trace, leaving only the circle that she had just inadvertently drawn.
At this moment, when she turned her gaze again to the cave entrance where light originally shone, Sun Wan suddenly realized that the position of the sun in the sky had shifted. Although the surface of the underground river still shone with a silvery-white light, she could no longer catch even the slightest trace of the existence of the strange vision she had seen before.
Sun Wan carefully placed her hands on the seemingly ordinary circle again and began to explore it slowly and meticulously.
Her heart was filled with doubts and curiosity, and she always felt that there seemed to be some unusual secret hidden beneath this location, a mystery waiting to be revealed.
Suddenly, after countless unsuccessful attempts, Sun Wan's thumb accidentally touched a stone that felt different in hardness from the surrounding soil.
This is a slightly protruding stone that feels cold and hard to the touch.
Just as Sun Wan had no time to think about this discovery, a crisp "click" sound came into her ears, followed by a deafening "boom".
In a brief and terrifying moment, the solid ground under Sun Wan's feet collapsed as if torn apart by an unknown force, and the whole person disappeared from sight in an instant, as if she had never existed.
Linglong and Miaomiao were playing happily on the side, but suddenly they heard a sudden unusual noise coming from behind them.
Instinctively, the two little girls immediately stopped what they were doing and turned their heads away.
When they saw that their beloved grandmother Sun Wan suddenly disappeared, an unprecedented sense of panic surged in their hearts.
Then, the two children cried out heart-wrenchingly with all their strength, trying to call back the person they depended on the most.
"grandmother!"
"grandmother!"
Linglong watched helplessly as a dark and deep pit appeared in front of her, like a ferocious monster with its terrifying mouth wide open, ready to swallow anything that approached.
The little girl was extremely frightened. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she screamed loudly: "It's a monster! It's a monster that ate my good grandma, wow wow wow... I want my grandma to come back..."
Without hesitation, she knelt down beside the newly appeared hole, ignoring the potential danger around her, and shouted loudly with all her might: "Grandma, please come back soon..."
After experiencing a life-threatening fire, he met the kind-hearted Sun Wan on the way to escape under the guidance of his brother.
From that moment on, when Sun Wan held the still frightened little Linglong in her arms, she firmly said to everyone, "Follow me."
After that, Linglong began to pour all her trust and deep attachment to this new good grandma without reservation.
Although children are still young, they are always sensitive to who treats them with sincerity and care.
At this time, Miaomiao, who was slightly older and calmer than Linglong, stepped forward to comfort her sister and proposed a solution. She said, "Sister, can you wait here for grandma? I'll go call father to come and help find our dear grandma."
After hearing her sister's words, Linglong immediately nodded vigorously to show her agreement. Then she quickly wiped away the crystal liquid remaining in the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand and replied with a choked voice, "Okay, sister. I will definitely protect this place and prevent the scary monster from hurting grandma again."
Not long after, the villagers heard the news and rushed over from all directions, surrounding the place where the incident happened.
One of the men, known as Zhang Lao Hu, warned the onlookers in a serious tone, "Everyone please step back a few steps. Don't come any closer to avoid causing another collapse."
The old village chief, with a worried look on his face, asked Miaomiao, a little girl standing beside him who looked equally frightened, "Miaomiao, can you describe to me in detail what happened? How could someone fall in there out of nowhere?"
Faced with such a complex situation, Miaomiao struggled to comprehend her thoughts for a moment. She could only rely on her memory to recall the general situation: just a few minutes ago, the three of them were playing and having a good time by the river; but as Sun Wan was strolling along the water's edge, admiring the beautiful scenery, a terrifying sound suddenly rang out; and then, the gentle and kind old lady disappeared without a trace...
