Chapter XXXVIII
Chapter XXXVIII deals with poisoning
1
We hurried to Yun Ximing's side, only to see that his two hands had become red, as if they had been scalded by boiling water, especially his right hand, which was not only red and swollen, but also had lost his intuition, and he couldn't even hold the dagger in his hand. And this began to spread all over his body, and his forearms began to crawl with small red red dots.
"Ximing, how are you feeling now?" I asked anxiously, but I didn't know what the problem was, could it be that those Teng vines just now were poisonous? I asked Dazhe to carefully inspect the vines that were cut down just now, but I didn't find anything wrong, the two of us also had a lot of mucus on our palms in the process of stacking the vines just now, but only Yun Ximing was poisoned. I flipped Yun Ximing's palm over and looked at it carefully, but his hand was already swollen like a steamed bun, and I couldn't even see the palm prints. At this time, Ji Ziyang came over with a look of disdain.
"Prick all five of his fingers first, and let out some of the poisonous blood." He said coldly, I hurriedly did what Ziyang said, and sure enough, there was some effect, the poisonous blood was much thinner than normal blood, and the color became very light, and after some poisonous blood was released, the hands were obviously swollen.
"Ziyang, do you know what kind of poison this is?" I asked.
"I don't know, but it's a common emergency, if you don't want him to die so quickly, hurry up and find something to cool down."
"Something to cool down?" I didn't have any ideas for a while, I really couldn't do it, I had to hurry back, Ximing's current situation, I had to go back to the ground first before I could make any more plans.
"I wonder if this will work?" Uncle Lu took out something from his backpack and made my eyes light up. This is a kind of instantaneous cooling ice pack, the structure is two layers, the inner package is water, and the middle layer between the two layers is a small particle similar to a desiccant. This thing is very popular on campus now, I don't know how Uncle Lu can be so "fashionable". "It's very practical, especially when you're injured." Uncle Lu explained.
We squeezed the ice pack and let Yun Ximing hold it in his hand, the temperature of his hand rose quickly, and soon those ice packs would be warmed by him, but the effect of this was very significant, and the red dot on Yun Ximing's forearm spread much slower.
"It's much better, let's evacuate here first and deal with Yun Ximing's hands above." I mentioned yƬ, Dazhe immediately responded, he was surprisingly timid in this regard, and Uncle Lu also agreed, but Ji Ziyang's figure flashed and blocked in front of us.
"It's better for you to stay here and look for a breakthrough, otherwise the consequences may be very strict." Ji Ziyang glanced at Yun Ximing as he spoke.
"The consequences are very severe? What are the consequences? I asked anxiously.
"Will die!" Yun Ximing replied categorically, "Many of the mechanisms in the ancient tombs are designed to leave no way for people to live, many people go out alive after robbing the tomb, but they all die unexpectedly, this ancient tomb is so strange that it can no longer be judged by our existing definition, if it is also death when you go out, then I would rather stay and help you explore a little more inside." "Yun Ximing was really a little tragic when he said this, but I never believed in any fate, or I subconsciously felt that I could handle this matter. It's a way of thinking that is unique to me, and a lot of times my feel-good subconscious will guide me to push things in a good direction, like in this tricky situation right now, and my subconscious actually reminds me that maybe it's right to stay here.
At this time, Yun Ximing suddenly let out a voice and exclaimed, "Huh! ā
We all thought his condition had deteriorated and hurried over.
"Look, are there two little holes here? And here? Yun Ximing's palm has obviously become a lot less swollen, he pointed to the inside of the palm of the two hands, sure enough, there are two small holes on the left hand and the right hand, just now the palm is red and swollen This kind of small hole and those red spots are mixed together, it is really difficult to find, now look closely, it is indeed a very small and deep hole.

"It's ...... Siming ...... Have you been bitten by something? I asked him.
"I don't know, I don't feel anything, and I don't feel pain or itch, so I didn't think too much about it, maybe I was really bitten when I went to explore the path just now."
"Let's not talk about that, I said you should see if Brother Gongzi's wound was bitten by a snake?" Dazhe was also anxious on the side.
"It's not like a snake, the snake bite wound is not so deep, and this small hole is so small, what snake tooth marks will be so small, I saw a lot of snakes when I was a marine, this should not be a snake bite trace, more like some kind of insect bite."
Seeing that we are in a daze, although Yun Ximing's injuries have gradually been controlled, we can't guarantee how long this kind of control can last, and we don't know where these things that bit Yun Ximing are hidden, in fact, we can't do anything now.
"If those things are in the place where the young master of the Yun family explored the path just now, then maybe they will go inside, in this way, I will go in and take a look, if there is any situation, I will give you a signal, and you will exit immediately." Uncle Lu was about to leave, but I stopped him.
"No, what if you don't have time to react? What if those things are more dangerous than we think? You also saw the fate of those people at the entrance of the tomb, Yun Ximing is okay for the time being, I'm afraid it's because the wound is on his hand, if he bites the vital point, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out of this tomb at all. ā
"It's not okay to go, it's not okay to stay, it's not okay to move forward, it's not okay to go back, I just know that if we stay here all the time, we'll starve to death." Dazhe rubbed his stomach as he spoke, and the sound of his stomach screaming sounded like a drum. "You guys go ahead and figure it out, I've got to find a way to fill my stomach first." As he spoke, Dazhe sat on the ground, really took out the compressed biscuits, and ate them, not understanding how he could still eat them in such an emergency.
"I said fatty, you can eat, can you stop fiddling with your guys, why do you turn on the infrared scope on the gun?" Yun Ximing covered the ice pack and complained dissatisfiedly, Dazhe was sitting in the backlit place, eating compressed biscuits, he didn't have a flashlight, and he didn't know what he was tinkering with over there, so he aimed the infrared light on the wall, and the small red light spot was very dazzling.
"What infrared? I've got my gun pinned to my waist, but don't rely on me for everything. Dazhe denied.
"Not you? That...... What is this red dot on the wall? ā
