"6th April, rain.
"Underneath the tunnel is a completely new world. Everything in front of me makes me nervous and excited at the same time … Sorry, I could not help but laugh out loud. It seems that I scared the little girl next to me.
"I think there is something wrong with me, but facing an unknown civilization, as a scholar, it is natural to be excited, right?
"It is the same for the others. I can see the light in Professor Lin's eyes. Although he is trying his best to remain calm and maintain the dignity of a leader, his expression is already covered with a layer of uncontrollable excitement.
"After all, this archaeological expedition was initiated by Professor Lin. For him, it is as if he has experienced thousands of mountains and rivers and dug out a treasure with his own shovel.
"In contrast, Professor Zhang seems to be worried."

"7th April, rain.
"I've found a nearly complete book full of words, which means that I can study hundreds, thousands of times more samples. How delightful and annoying it is!"
"Just by looking at those beautiful words that filled the pages, I feel like my brain is full of inspiration. Even though I still can't understand their meaning, it seems like I can understand what they are trying to express through some strange connection."
"I can't wait to decipher these codes from another world." com

"15th April, rain.
"The excavation is still not going well. Coupled with the continuous rain for almost half a month, all of us are in a very bad mood.
"I'm starting to get scared. Unknowingly … more than half of the research team of 29 people have been killed or injured. Everything here is unfamiliar, and danger is everywhere. I can feel that someone is following us at every moment. In the darkness, there is a pair of eyes staring at us."
"He (cross out) it (cross out) … Perhaps it is more appropriate to call him 'He'.
"In the almost completely dark environment, every time I lit the match and the flame flickered, I seemed to be able to feel his breath brushing against my cheek."
"Professor Lin told us to cheer up. As long as we can bring back what we found here, everyone here will become famous in history, just like Columbus … No, we are greater than Columbus.
"… Of course, the premise is that we can return from here. However, the road that we came from was blocked by the landslide yesterday. At that moment, a female team member in the team went crazy on the spot … I have not studied anything related to medicine, so I am not sure whether she has gone crazy or not. I only remember that she kept mumbling some inexplicable and inexplicable words. She used all her strength to hit the stones that blocked the road and used her head to hit them.
"I saw it with my own eyes. Her arm was fractured in the opposite direction, and her flesh was badly mangled. Half of her head was completely rotten and caved in. But even so, she continued to use her body to hit the rocks mixed with mud … until she was completely dead."
"Ol 'Wu, I saw him again. He was right next to that female member. When I left, I turned back to look, and he was standing there with his mouth open. It was completely dark inside."
"But thankfully, he did not say those infuriating words."

"20th April, rain.
"I suddenly have an idea, an unprecedented new idea!
"The problems that have haunted me have all been solved. I can suddenly understand the meaning of these words, completely, completely. It is like I have become one of them, and they are talking to me … I hid in my tent and studied it all night. I was so excited that I could almost hear the sound of my brain squirming.
"But when I showed the notes to my colleagues and students, none of them could understand them. They even mocked me for writing scribbles … scribbles?"
The later part of the note was scribbled over with thick and messy ink, but it was still possible to see that it seemed to be all kinds of insults.
"… Perhaps this is not their fault. When I was able to understand this, I was already in a different world from them."

"23rd April, rain."
"Part of the notebook was soaked by the rain. About three pages of content were blurred. This is bad, I should have noticed it earlier."
"I don't have any extra paper, so I can't rewrite the content. Originally, I thought that I would be able to recall the contents of my diary in my mind, but to my surprise, I can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning."
"The long-term pressure of living underground has affected my perception of time, and it has made my memory blurry. That's what Professor Zhang told me. She told me not to think about it anymore and to stay relaxed.
"She is very young. According to the gossip I heard, she should have been Professor Lin's student in the past. The love story between the two of them is worth a lot to write about, but for now, I can only talk about it in my heart.
"But this has nothing to do with her ability. Professor Zhang is still an excellent psychologist. Her words always make me want to believe her."

"30th April, rain."
"The endless rain is so annoying."
"The team has been reduced to five people. Me, Professor Lin, Professor Zhang, Shao Yiwen, who is also a language major but we are not familiar with each other, and one of Professor Lin's students, a young man named Duan Xuemin.
"Yiwen's left arm and a small part of her body were bitten off by those things. She was bleeding profusely, and I saw her organs flowing out from the wound. Her intestines fell to the ground, but we no longer had any bandages or medicine, so we could only use clothes to bandage her wounds.
"The continuous high fever made her delirious. She was either unconscious or talking nonsense, but occasionally, I could hear what she was saying clearly.
"I guarded her at night, and she kept talking to me. She told me about her baptism, how she played in the church, how she felt very warm, how she had lost the Bible that she always carried with her, and as she spoke, she started to cry … That was the first time I realized that she was a Christian.
"In the wee hours of the morning, she opened her eyes and said, 'God has come.'

"10th May, clear."
"I'm the only one left."
"That's not a good way to put it. To be precise, I lost them. Now, I'm curled up in a small corner. I'm very tired, very thirsty, and my throat is sticky with the smell of blood. It's very uncomfortable. My eyes are already blind, and they are throbbing with pain.
"But thankfully, we have persevered long enough, and I have made new discoveries. The following is all the information that I have compiled … A portion of it came from Shao Yiwen. This is also research that is worthy of recognition. She has done a very good job, really, very good job."
"I feel that my consciousness is a bit blurry. The ground, the ground is starting to shake and rise. I am sliding down, and I think I hear a baby crying.
"I see Old Wu again."
