  Jin Douzi chuckled and said, "Luo Ze Ge, I'm not talking about the smell on your body. This smell was left by that man in black, so my memory of him is even more vivid." Jin Douzi pointed at the stone in my hand and said, "Now I know that the smell comes from this thing."

  "What is this after all?" I couldn't bear Jin Douzi's continued suspense and asked in pursuit.

  "This is an egg." Jin Douzi said, throwing away the fish bones in his hand. Suddenly, a few loud "pops" sounded beside our ears, and then the dry riverbed was filled with water again. I and Jin Douzi stared at the turbulent river water in front of us in surprise.

  "By the way, do you know what this egg is?" I pushed a golden bean, he shook his head. We sat on the shore for a while, and when my clothes were dry, I picked up a wooden stick and continued walking forward.

  Maybe because I was full, the road ahead seemed much lighter to walk. The caves in front of me were getting smaller and smaller, and finally, I saw a faint light far away. My friend Jin Douzi and I rushed towards that light as if we had gained new life. When we reached the end of the light, we found ourselves seemingly already inside a tomb.

  I and Jin Douzi hurriedly climbed up, at this time it was already afternoon, the sky was also a bit dark. I refused Jin Douzi's repeated invitations and insisted on returning to Daqi, after yesterday's life-and-death ordeal, even if I died, I didn't want to go back to that damned place again.

  When I arrived at Daqi Town, it was already late. I stayed in the dormitory arranged by my colleague and picked up the phone beside me to call home to report safety. The old man heard my voice slowly saying: "Come back early!" And then hung up the phone directly. I felt a little lost in my heart, so I dialed Lao Cong's mobile phone again, but still didn't respond after a long time. Last night was a sleepless night, and now I'm extremely tired. I made two more calls, still unable to get through, so I lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
