Chapter 284: Poison in the Depths
Qiu Yan began to swim upstream, inserted the glow stick into the belt buckle, and began to move against the rock wall, shining all the way, and saw a large number of corpses lying in the swamp, most of them all sunk into the mud, only stretched out a stiff hand or other parts, and the bottom of the entire waterhole was almost all there.
As he walked, he avoided the corpses, but there were too many corpses to get out, and the mud on many corpses was washed away by the current stirred up by Qiu Yan. Qiu Yan found that on their necks, there were two blackened perforations, and the entire neck was blackened, and the surrounding parts were cyan.
They were all bitten to death by snakes, and there were no signs of fighting in the entire camp, either directly in their sleep, or they were attacked on a large scale while marching here. Along the way, Qiu Yan's fluorescence shone on one of the faces, which was not completely covered with silt, and subconsciously stopped, and suddenly found that this face was a little familiar, and then Qiu Yan recognized it.
That's a Miaojiang person!
His eyes were closed, and his whole person was in a very strange posture, his body was only covered with a thin layer of mud, and the corpse spots on his face were already very obvious.
Qiu Yan was almost suffocated, looked around, and said in his heart that those snakes had even transported his corpse here!
From the surface of the corpse, it seems that this is still an ordinary corpse, and there is no snake-like mutation, so the black shadow that I saw at that time was not him?
Qiu Yan took a deep breath and leaned over, his heart could no longer describe what it felt, and he reached out to his body and touched it, there was no walkie-talkie. Qiu Yan wanted to pick him up, but found that he couldn't focus at all. His face was washed clean by the swamp water stirred by Qiu Yan, and his hair hung down, showing a strange tranquility, and at that moment Qiu Yan seemed to feel that he was still alive.
But then Qiu Yan sank him into the swamp again, and the muddy water suddenly disappeared everything, and the illusion disappeared without a trace.
Qiu Yan's heart was extremely sour, looking at the surrounding scene, the more he thought about it, the more cold he became. What is this quagmire, is this a place where they pile up their food? There could be a giant python here to eat?
Qiu Yan felt extremely uneasy, this place was not safe, and he had to leave here immediately. Thinking about it, he waved his glow stick and looked for a place to climb around, and soon found that the water was in the opposite direction, and the vines of a tree were hanging in the water. Qiu Yan bit the glow stick, and swam towards it, grabbing the vine after a few steps.
The fog had already thinned a little, Qiu Yan gritted his teeth and climbed up the vines, but when he thought of what Le Jin said, when the silt was snake-proof, he went down and picked up a hand of silt, wiped it on the place where the water washed away on his body, and then climbed up again, until he climbed to the branches of the vines, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
I walked along the branches to the center of the canopy, and just as I was about to climb down the tree, I suddenly heard a sound of water in a pool of water on the side, and it seemed that something had fallen.
Qiu Yan looked for the sound to shine, and saw that there were indeed ripples on the side of the beach, something rolled down from the shore, and the fluorescence shone on the corner, and Qiu Yan saw a red mass of sausage-like things, which were a large number of cockscomb tailsnakes that were entwined together, and among them, it seemed that something was wrapped in it.
Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes and looked carefully, and for a moment Qiu Yan saw a hand poking out of the snake pile, and then Qiu Yan saw a bulging human head.
Qiu Yan's pupils shrank, Li Mowu.
Li Mowu didn't resist, Qiu Yan didn't even see him moving, the chill in his heart became more and more cold, could it be that he was already dead?
The snakes moved, Qiu Yan had imagined quite a lot of ways to speculate how they transported the corpses, but he didn't expect this pattern, the red snakes of all sizes coiled together, wrapped the corpse in the center, and then moved the body to make the corpse move forward, Li Mowu was burly and tall, and he was extremely heavy in his sleep, but these snakes were still able to move him here quickly, obviously this way of moving was quite efficient.
After Li Mowu fell into the pool, the snakes thinned out and began to climb ashore again, and soon disappeared on top of the stone wall, Qiu Yan looked at Li Mowu lying quietly in the water, a little overwhelmed. I don't know if he is dead or alive, I thought about it, no matter what, Qiu Yan must go and see it, and he can't even leave him here without knowing whether he is dead or not.
Qiu Yan looked around vigilantly, it seemed that the snake had gone away, checked the mud on his body, and then climbed down the vine again, carefully descended into the water, lying on the rock wall, and slowly walked to Li Mowu's side.
Li Mowu didn't move at all, most of his head was submerged in the water, Qiu Yan's heart was cold, and his heart trembled a little, no.
After listening carefully, there was no sound around, Qiu Yan approached Li Mowu and turned him over, Li Mowu's lower body sank into the water, Qiu Yan touched the artery between his neck, there was still beating, and there was a faint breath, but Qiu Yan also immediately saw the tooth hole in his neck, he was also bitten by a snake.
The snakes here are really vicious, and they all bite on their necks, so unless they have immunity to snake venom, they basically can't deal with it, and they can only wait for death, and they don't know what happened to them just now, and how the mud on their bodies was washed away.
Lejin is fine because of his fast movements and the small amount of venom injected, Li Mowu is definitely not so lucky, I don't know why he is still alive now. However, even if he doesn't die, it's only a matter of time before he looks like this, Qiu Yan looked around, and said in his heart that he must be dragged out of this puddle first, and then take some measures immediately, otherwise these snakes will come back to make up for it.
This is quite difficult, fortunately, the vines are downstream, Qiu Yan helped Li Mowu upstream, and pushed him downstream with the buoyancy and thrust of the water, but he didn't expect to lose control in two steps, almost floating into the turbulent water, Qiu Yan twisted his body hard, let his hand float on it, and grabbed it when he rushed through the vines, before regaining control of his body.
