When I listened carefully, the singing seemed to have disappeared again.
It's so vague that it tickles my heart.
There were a few times when I wanted to walk forward and see what was at the end of the tomb. However, when I thought of the people from the archeological team, they were so experienced that they couldn't come up even if they went down, so I gave up.
No matter how curious he was, it was not as important as his life.
I was so tired and hungry that I even leaned against the stone door to sleep.
After the calendar on my phone was updated for a day, I finally heard the sounds of talking outside and the sound of machines operating.
I was so excited that I almost jumped up.
Not long after the sound of the machine rang, the stone door that I was leaning against began to loosen. The light from outside seeped in, and I subconsciously closed my eyes.
"You are…?"
I quickly identified myself." I'm from the geological survey. You are?”
"We're from the archeological team. Because all the members who were sent here to excavate have disappeared, the higher-ups asked us to come here for further investigation.”
"Let me out first."
When we reached the ground, I finally relaxed. I drank a mouthful of water and said to them,"Before you came, this stone door was already opened. Then this morning, no, it was already yesterday. None of them came back yesterday morning, so I came to take a look. After I went in, the stone door closed automatically.”
"If not for you guys, I don't know how long I would have been locked up.”
The leader of the group looked at each other." None of them came out?”
I nodded." Definitely."
"Then it's very likely that he's doomed.”He pondered for a moment and ordered,"Brothers, everyone must hurry up."”
Seeing that they had resumed their mining work, I pushed back to the side to rest.
Ye Mei floated over like a ghost." You said that you went in, why didn't you be buried with them?"”
I frowned at her." What do you know?”
She smiled and stopped talking.
After I went back in the afternoon, I was scolded by the teacher. He said that I didn't listen to him and wanted to take risks. After scolding me, the teacher took me and Ye Mei back.
He said that the rest of the matter is no longer something we can interfere with.
Time passed too quickly during the inspection trip. A quarter of the summer vacation had passed just like that.
I stayed in the dormitory every day, helping out with the teacher's experiments, and then asking about what was dug out of the tomb. My days were quite leisurely.
My appetite is getting worse, and I'm getting thinner.
On the way to the cafeteria, I looked at my phone and said that an ancient royal tomb had appeared in the Daliang Mountain area and a well-preserved male corpse had been dug out.
The male corpse's skin was lifelike, as if he was still alive.
I continued scrolling down the page, but naturally, I couldn't see the picture. There wasn't even any useful information.
I sighed and put away my phone. I asked the cafeteria lady," Is there any sour plum soup today?”
"Yes, yes."
The auntie hurriedly filled a bowl for me." Fortunately, there are still a few people in school. Otherwise, I would have lost my job."”
I narrowed my eyes and stood in front of the window to take a sip." Then, is your salary not as high as when you were in school?”
"Of course. There were so many people in school, but there are only a few now.”The auntie said regretfully.
It seemed like she didn't want us to have winter and summer vacations at all.
I smiled and didn't say anything.
"By the way, I specially roasted chicken today and left a drumstick for you.”As she spoke, she enthusiastically pushed a plate of food in front of me.
Perhaps it was because there were fewer students and less workload, but the quality of the food served by the canteen aunties had skyrocketed. The roasted chicken and drumsticks were especially appetizing.
But for some reason, looking at the food, I suddenly felt greasy and disgusted. I couldn't help but cover my stomach and retch.
She vomited until tears came out, but she couldn't spit anything out.
I looked up and saw the cafeteria lady's face. I was a little embarrassed and said,"It's been too hot in the summer recently, and I don't have a good appetite. It's not that your food doesn't taste good.”
"It's okay, it's okay. I understand." She looked at my expression and asked me carefully,"Miss, I have a question. Don't mind me saying too much. Don't tell me you're…pregnant?”
"Ah?"
I was stunned for a while before I remembered that she asked me if I was pregnant.
I quickly waved my hand." How is that possible? I don't even have a boyfriend…"
"Oh, that's good. You're still university students. You can't get pregnant.”
The auntie was still rambling on by her ear, saying that college students did not love themselves and killed their children after giving birth.
However, I felt that I couldn't hear anything. Even the hand holding the rice bowl felt weak.
I stiffly placed the bowl on the table and held my phone. My heart was in a mess.
In the end, I ran back to the dormitory without eating and called Tang Tang.
The call was quickly picked up.
"Su Su, you finally remembered me? You haven't called me for so long. I'm going to be angry.”
" I, I…" Hearing her voice, my tears fell before I could say anything.
"Eh? Don't cry. I don't blame you. What's wrong?”
"I might be pregnant."
I covered my mouth and sobbed.
There was a moment of silence on the phone. Then, Tang Tang gritted her teeth and said," Whose child is it? How old are you?"
"I don't know. Maybe, maybe it's Xie Jingyuan's.”
When this name was mentioned, we all fell silent.
Xie Jingyuan is a ghost…and I am a human. How can a human and a ghost have a child?
"How long has it been since your period came?"
" I haven't been here for the past two months. I thought that I was too stressed from the final exams and that I've been running around outside this month, so I didn't take it to heart. Who knew…"
"Don't panic. Go to the pharmacy and buy two pregnancy test papers. If it really doesn't work, go to the hospital for an ultrasound.”
"No need. I'm going to the pharmacy.”
"Really? Can you take care of yourself?" Tang Tang was worried.
"Yes, I can. I'll go to the pharmacy first. I'll tell you the results later.”
It was now past one o'clock, when the sun was at its hottest, but I couldn't wait any longer. I went out and took a taxi to the nearest pharmacy.
When they arrived at the pharmacy, there were only two shop assistants who were dozing off. Other than them, there were no other customers.
I couldn't help but feel a little lucky.
"Hello, what can I do for you?" The shop assistant asked me with a friendly smile.
"I…I want pregnancy test papers."
I said this in embarrassment. I didn't know if it was my imagination, but I felt that the shop assistant's friendly smile had turned into disdain.
"Here, ten yuan for one. How many do you want?”
"Two."
I didn't dare to use my phone to pay. I hurriedly threw 20 yuan in cash and put the pregnancy test in my bag as if it was a bomb.
