Chapter 1019: Take a gamble
Yang Xianmao nodded and thought about it, and said, "I still have one last move, and this one move can tell you." Because I need to test this trick, you may be able to help me, and if it succeeds, we can all escape. ”
The Qian Gang Master was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "What is the solution? I know that Gongzi is resourceful and will definitely be able to think of a way." Childe, please advise. ”
Yang Xianmao said: "You're welcome, everyone is in the same boat, this method is that I will make something called a gas mask and wear it on the mouth and nose, this kind of thing can filter the smoke miasma, maybe you can quickly break through these miles of smoke miasma with the fastest speed, and not be smoked down by the smoke miasma." Truth be told, I've used this gas mask to deal with the smoke miasma, but the time is relatively short, and it's hard to say whether such a wide range can travel through the past. ”
The Qian Gang Master nodded and said, "I have discussed this with Qian Shanren, if it is a quick passage on flat ground, it will take at least a cup of tea." But in the jungle and thorny places, it takes at least a meal. ”
Yang Xianmao said: "If it's just a meal, it's not a big problem not to breathe. But the miasma I'm worried about, in addition to entering the human body through the mouth and nose, there may be other ways to cause people to be poisoned, even if you don't breathe. I haven't confirmed this, I wonder if you know anything about it?"
One of the elders said, "It is indeed possible, I have seen many large animals die in the land of smoke miasma. Some of them were bears, and they had only been dead for a day or two, and all the skin on their bodies had rotted, and only white bones remained. In the end, even the white bones were broken and ashes, which was very terrible. ”
When Yang Xianmao heard this, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, thinking to himself why he didn't have the symptoms of skin poisoning in the first place? He immediately understood, maybe his skin had been tempered by the true fire of yin and yang, which made his body extremely strong. In addition, the smoke at that time passed through its own very short time.
And most of it is blown by the mountain wind, and the smoke is not so thick. It may have been diluted to a great extent, so that it did not cause major damage to the body. If it is a pristine miasma, it is difficult to say whether you can resist it.
……………………
The devouring power developed rapidly, and Yang Xianmao was originally estimated to take fifteen days, but in fact the progress was even faster than imagined. In just three days, the devouring scorched earth on the east and west sides had already approached the village of Disaster Shelter.
Before that, all the people of the village had tested the scorched earth countless times, and no matter what they threw out, even the stones would turn into a cloud of scorched earth. So the villagers put their hope on the smoke miasma that surrounds the entire disaster shelter village, trying to break through the smoke miasma. But apart from leaving a lot of corpses in the smoky land, nothing came of it.
Yang Xianmao and the beggar gang leader made some gas masks and wanted to test them to see if they could break through this barrier. They first put this kind of gas mask on the mouth and nose of the pig, and soaked it with kraft paper and stuck it firmly so that the breath would not pass through the gas mask when the air leaked. Then he whipped the pig on the buttocks, and the pig went crazy and rushed towards the miasma.
They didn't know that the place was the Death Strike, and they rushed in and fell to the ground in a frustration, convulsing and dying quickly. And within two or three hours of death, the pig's body soon showed signs of decay and quickly liquefied. Within a day, the pigs had turned into a pile of bones. This is definitely not the process of the normal death of living beings, it should be suffering from the terrifying aura of the body of the Smoke Miasma.
Yang Xianmao was in a heavy mood, and told the Qian Gang Master: "It seems that we have the wrong budget, this thing has a strong corrosive ability on people's skin and body. Even if the mouth and nose are blocked, or through the gas mask, it is difficult to break out of its range. No matter how high the martial arts are, if you want to rush out, you will be damaged by the smell of corruption, and eventually take your life. So it's definitely not a barrier that can be broken through. ”
Qian Gang said: "What you say is completely reasonable, but I don't want to sit still. I still want to make an effort to see if I can break through the encirclement. ”
After they finished observing and returned to the beggar gang, the Qian gang leader recruited all the beggar gang disciples and told them that this magical gas mask custom-made by Yang Xianmao could resist the miasma of smoke. However, in addition to the miasma of smoke inhaled through the mouth and nose, it is not known whether the pores of the body can be inhaled. Someone needs to really verify whether this worry is unwarranted.
The money gang leader even invested a lot of money, if someone succeeds in breaking through the miasma. Shoot fireworks outside the miasma to prove that you've managed to get out alive. It must be elevated to the master of incense.
For a moment, the beggars in the hall with martial arts skills looked at each other one by one, and none of them raised their hands. In the end, it was the Qian gang leader who was furious and sneered: "Could it be that the people of the beggar gang are all miscreants?"
As a result, three or four warriors who were willing to sacrifice their lives stepped forward and arched their hands: "The disciple is willing to rush through this ghost gate and explore the way for the brothers." ”
The money gang leader was very excited and praised loudly. But a beggar disciple laughed at himself helplessly: "There is no way, it can only be like this, otherwise we will die." There is still a way to live when you rush out, and everyone will die together if you stay. Left and right are a death, why not gamble?"
It's a pity that this gamble was not won, and the four beggar disciples rushed forward like crazy after covering their mouths and noses with gas masks made of Yang Xianmao, and they rushed out more than ten zhang more than the pigs, and then fell into the miasma, and their corpses turned into a pile of white bones in less than a day.
This made Yang Xianmao stunned, and he understood that the main poisonous gas of the smoke miasma was actually not the mouth and nose. Of course, there must be a mouth and nose, but in fact, his biggest poison is from the pores to invade the body, and his entire body is completely able to resist these terrifying breaths after being tempered by the Yin and Yang True Fire. And so that in the process of relatively short smoke infestation, he escaped with his life.
I always thought that I escaped my life by covering my mouth and nose, but in fact, the miasma of smoke mainly invaded the body through pores. Therefore, the body's resistance is crucial, and this Yang Xianmao is very strong.
After Yang Xianmao knew this, he was happy and sad in his heart, because he found that his own body might be able to get him out of danger calmly. That is, to run forward with all your might, not to fall within an hour, you should be able to rush out of this miasma, and the body will not be harmed by it.
But what about the people you care about? Aunt Gu, Baiyun Guan Lord, Yu Fairy, Caiyun, and others. Can you just watch them die?
Yang Xianmao fell into deep thought, and the Qian Gang Leader said nervously on the side: "Why don't we dig the tunnel, take advantage of the hurry now, dig as much as we can." Maybe the cave we dug out would have been able to escape by hiding in the ground when that terrible force spread in front of us. ”
Yang Xianmao also ran out of ideas, and his own ideas had proven to be failures. Let's see if digging a hole in the ground works.
In fact, the leader of the beggar gang had already made two preparations before this, on the one hand, he prepared a number of beggars, and according to Yang Xianmao's method, they wore gas masks and tried to rush through the pass, but they were finally declared unsuccessful. At the same time, his other group began to dig in the relatively soft soil of the village to excavate the smoky land.
But as soon as they dug a few feet deep, they came across large and small stones. Even small stones are the size of a washbasin, and large stones have to be rounded several feet before they can be dug forward. In this way, the speed of progress is much slower, and it is less than two feet after digging for a day, and this is already all the people of the beggar gang in battle. In this way, it is impossible to pass through this wide smoky miasma without a few months.
Just as Yang Xianmao and the others were thinking about the path of life to the outside world on the top of the mountain, the scorched earth on both sides was spreading towards the village without hesitation.
Finally, the village is swept up in the scorched earth that has been swallowed up. And when they were swept in, there was no burning, no fire, not even heat, but they were reduced to ruins, as if they had been burned by real flames, leaving not a single intact piece of wood. The people of the village began to retreat in panic, and at that moment, the Devouring Land on the other side also began.
The people of the Disaster Shelter Village finally understood that they were in a desperate situation, and terrible forces were closing in on them on both sides. And it spreads from the river to the top of the mountain, to the land of smoke miasma. Keep moving forward, so that they have nowhere to run.
And at this moment, they found a way to escape, which was the river next to the village of Disaster Avoidance.
The beggars had already begun to build boats on the river, and they had used all the planks they could put at their disposal to build houses. Thanks to the abundance of talented people of the beggar gang, these men went into battle in thousands of troops, and under the command of those who knew how to do it, they soon built several simple large ships. Of course, this kind of boat can't be compared with a real painting boat or something, the only advantage is that it is relatively large and can hold many people, but it is very simple and not strong.
If it is in the ocean or in a fast-flowing river, such a boat will not survive a few waves, and it will be smashed to pieces and sink to the bottom of the sea. The good thing is that they just want to make a water fortress so that this thing can float on the water. The water in the river next to the village was very gentle, so that their very simple boat would not sink in the wind and waves.
The boats had almost all the beggars loaded, and the edge of the ships was close to the waterline. Fortunately, the ship is anchored in the middle of the water, so it will neither move up and down nor sink. But there is a big problem, and that is food.
The beggars have so many people on the boat, and the food in the hands of the beggars is almost zero. Because the beggars mainly live by begging, they can get as much money as they want, otherwise they will only starve. However, the beggars' shipbuilding efforts soon became a survival method for many people in the village to follow, because they had now discovered that the land of the village would be swallowed by this terrible miasma, and the only thing that could survive was the river except for these green mountains and tidal flats.
