Chapter 40: The Broken Boat Crossing the Lake

At this moment, Lin Tao decided that if Xiangxin showed any dissenting actions in the future, he would kill her mercilessly, otherwise once Xiangxin turned back and joined hands with her senior sister, she and the fat man would suffer, but she didn't have the strength to compete with the two Gu masters, once she failed, she would not only lose her life and blue-eyed green toad, but more importantly, her family would be affected.

The fat man took the lead and walked into the passage again, but there were many dried corpses lying in the passage, most of them dressed in the clothes of the locals, most likely because they had strayed here and been poisoned by Xiangluo.

"No, look at the signs of gnawing on these corpses." The fat man said according to a dried corpse, squatting next to the corpse and approaching the place where it was gnawed with a flashlight.

Xiangxin was surprised to see the marks on the dried corpse and immediately squatted down, carefully looked at the missing piece of meat on the neck of the dried corpse, and it was obviously bitten off: "Yes, it's a ghost mouse, it must be it." ”

The fat man also nodded beside him and said, "I think it looks like a rat bite, and it should be a mouth after a person dies, and the facial expression of the dry corpse has no pain." ”

The fat man then examined the other dried corpses, but only a few showed signs of gnawing on their bodies, and the others were intact.

Xiangxin regained her spirits, flashed a flashlight and walked straight inside, when Lin Tao and the fat man reacted from the body of the dried corpse, Xiangxin had already walked straight ahead and disappeared from the sight of the two.

Lin Tao got up and followed hurriedly, but was pulled by the fat man: "Da Tao, wait, look at the corpse in the corner." ”

With doubts, Lin Tao walked up to the dried corpse, only to find that the dried corpse was actually a blonde foreigner, with his upper body exposed. Wearing only a pair of camouflage pants.

"It's strange how the Americans could be here." Saying that, Lin Tao took out the identity tag that he picked up in the crack in the dry lake, and looked for the one hanging around this person's neck, one was engraved with John, but the dead corpse had Davis on his neck, which made Lin Tao feel unusually surprised, is there an American?

And why did they find the corpses of the United States in the Dungong Dandian and here, their identity card making techniques, equipment, and costumes are all the same, and the most important thing is that these two places are related to the five poisons, are they also here to look for Gu worms? But how did they know there were ghost rats here?

The fat man was also full of suspicion at this time, and after learning about the matter from Lin Tao, the fat man also became suspicious in his heart.

"Let's hurry up and keep up, lest something happen to Xiangxin, and we will study this matter when we go back." As he spoke, the fat man and Lin Tao hurriedly walked in the direction where Xiangxin disappeared.

Walking out of the passage of the stone room, everything in front of the two seemed to be in a paradise, full of blooming Xunxiangluo, there were many colorful moths flying on the flowers, and there were some unknown trees more than ten meters high against the edge of the rock wall, but the canopy was full of white flowers, and huge spiders were waiting for the moths that threw themselves into their nets.

Xiangxin stood by the small lake in front of the two, looking at the calm lake and didn't know what she was thinking, when she heard Lin Tao and the fat man come in, Xiangxin turned around and ran towards the two, took out a porcelain bottle from her bag and handed it to the two: "There are a lot of Xiangluo here, and those moths are all disseminators of Xiangluo pollen, and they must all be highly poisonous, you eat the pills inside, it is the poison avoidance pill I refined myself, although it is very ordinary, but the poisonous gas of Xiangluo can still be low-grade." ”

As soon as the fat man heard this, he poured out one from the porcelain bottle and stuffed it into his mouth without saying a word, and swallowed it in a mess, although Lin Tao was no longer afraid of these toxins, but for the sake of insurance, he still ate one and followed Xiangxin to the lake.

The fat man looked at the bottom of the lake and suddenly exclaimed, "It's so clear." At the same time, he glanced at Lin Tao.

Looking at the fat man's eyes, there are many clusters of coral-like creatures under the clear lake, but the outstretched tentacles are like kelp at the bottom of the lake, which reminds Lin Tao of the fat man's treasure hunting with the one-armed old four blood lakes that he said at the mouth of the rift just now, and the aquatic plants in the blood lake are the same as what he sees now. The description is roughly the same, could it be that the fat man means that this place is the same as the blood lake, a real tomb.

Although the water of the lake is crystal clear, and there is not a single fish in the water, let alone other living creatures, except for the tentacles that are swinging back and forth.

Just as Xiangxin and Lin Tao were worried about how to cross the river, the fat man gasped and pulled out a small broken boat covered with white cobwebs from the grove next to him: "Da Tao, hurry up and come over to help, you, I'm dead." ”

Lin Tao hurriedly went over to help the fat man pull the boat over: "Where did you find such a broken boat." Lin Tao wiped the sweat from his head and said rudely.

"Hey, you don't know about this, generally as long as there is a boat by the lake, there will be a ferry, and generally the boat is tied to the ferry, and you think about it, if the owner here wants to go to the other side, he can't swim over every time." As he spoke, he began to sort out the cobwebs on the ship.

"Can this ship be launched if it is broken like this?" Xiangxin on the side also looked at the broken boat with suspicion.

"You can rest assured about this, I just looked at it, this boat is dug out of a tree called purple oil wood, although there are a few holes, but it is more than enough to carry the three of us across the river, you must know that this wood is the lightest wood in China." The fat man said as he pushed the boat into the water.

Xiangxin sat at the bow of the boat, and the fat man stood at the stern of the boat, holding a wooden stick that had just been cut from a tree and acted as a boatman. After a few strokes, I paddled to the middle of the lake, and if I looked closely, the distance from the shore to the grove in the middle of the lake opposite was less than 100 meters.

Suddenly, Lin Tao saw a big moth rushing from behind the fat man and shouted, "Fat man, be careful." ”

The fat man was obviously also frightened by Lin Tao's shout, and suddenly squatted down with his head in his hands.

Xiangxin also turned her head and saw the big moth that attempted to attack the fat man turn around in the air and swoop down again, and with a flick of her jade hand, a silver dart flew out of her hand, cutting the big moth in half directly from the middle and falling into the lake.

Lin Tao and Xiangxin turned around and asked the fat man with concern: "How is it, it's okay, did the moth touch you just now?" ”

Seeing that it was safe, the fat man stood up and looked at his body to see that there was no big problem: "It was nothing just now, but I feel that we are going to be in big trouble now." ”
