"Looks like the scorpion should have run away."

After looking for a long time in the rest area, Du Zhong turned his head and looked at Xu Hongru with a helpless expression.

"Ran away?"

Xu Hongru was stunned.

"That's how it should be."

Du Zhong nodded and said: "Although I was born here and am used to the weather conditions here, the animals here are also as afraid of heat as other animals, and when the scorpion pierces the child, it should be the time for its activity, and once the activity time is over, it will find a secret and shady place to escape the heat, and it is very likely that it will hide in the sand somewhere, and it is not easy to find it out from the sandstone all over the place." ”

"So what's next?"

Xu Hongru smiled bitterly.

Originally.

He thought that with the strength of Eucommia, he should be able to find the scorpion in a short time, and then quickly find the kind of herb that can cure the plague.

I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

"After that, we have to wait until the evening."

Du Zhong shook his head and explained: "Because of the hot and dry weather, the scorpions here generally choose to hide and rest during the day, and only come out at night to move, as long as the sky is dark and the temperature drops, it should not be difficult to find the scorpions." ”

"Yes."

Xu Hongru nodded knowingly.

The group had nothing to do but wait where they were.

Half an hour later.

"Boom ......"

There was a roar of engines.

Du Zhong and Xu Hongru, who were waiting in the rest area, as well as the two policemen who stayed behind, immediately looked towards the source of the sound for the first time.

Saw.

What appeared in front of me was a small car that was not luxurious.

The car went all the way to the rest area before slowly stopping.

"Click!"

The door opened.

"Huh?"

Seeing the people getting out of the car, the two policemen immediately stood up and blocked in front of Du Zhong and Xu Hongru.

Xu Hongru's face also changed.

Only Du Zhong has an indifferent face.

Come.

It was the child and his parents who were stabbed by a scorpion before.

"Why are you back again?"

The two policemen seemed to be worried about something, and before the family of three came over, they took the lead in greeting them, saying, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, give me some peace, otherwise don't blame me for taking you back to the bureau directly." ”

"Of course, of course."

The child's father smiled, stood on tiptoe, turned his head to look at Du Zhong, who was sitting in the rest area, and then hurriedly said: "Mr. police, you misunderstood, I didn't come to ask for trouble, I came to thank you." ”

"Thank you?"

The two policemen were stunned.

Here, Xu Hongru slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile.

"That's right."

The child's father opened his mouth with a sincere face and said: "We misunderstood him, and after arriving at the hospital, we found that the child's poison has been completely resolved, and his health is better than before." ”

"Huh?"

The two policemen were also stunned.

What's going on?

"Just now, my wife and I went a little too far with this gentleman's words and deeds, so I thought about coming back to apologize to him and thank him for saving our children."

The child's father opened his mouth and said.

"It's a good feeling."

The policeman laughed and said, "Go ahead." ”

Hearing this, the child's parents immediately walked towards Eucommia with their children in their arms.

"This brother."

When he came to Du Zhong, the child's father called Du Zhong with a somewhat embarrassed face and said, "We were too anxious just now, after all, the child was poisoned......

"I understand."

Du Zhong smiled and nodded in response.

"Thank you."

The child's father immediately nodded gratefully and said: "The doctor said that the scorpion venom here, the child can't bear it at all, according to the time of the child's poisoning, even if the child is sent to the hospital as soon as the ambulance arrives, it may not be completely cured, the time is prolonged, and it may even cause sequelae, thanks to you for saving Xiaoyang in the first time, if it weren't for you, what the child would be like now, it is not certain." ”

"It's a gesture."

Du Zhong smiled.

"I apologize to you."

After thanking him, the child's father lowered his head in embarrassment and said, "I always thought you were an ordinary doctor, but I didn't expect you to be really a master of medical skills, I misunderstood you just now, I'm really embarrassed." ”

"No problem."

Du Zhong nodded and said, "It's too hot here, you better take the child away quickly, and when the time gets dark, the scorpion here will come out again, don't prick the child again." ”

"Thank you so much......"

The child's parents thanked him as they returned to the car.

Wait.

The child's father suddenly took out a box of mineral water from the trunk of the car, sent it to Du Zhong and others, and said: "This mineral water is chilled, and we don't have any good thanks. ”

Let's talk about it.

After leaving the mineral water, he turned around and left.

A family of three has just left.

The eyes of the two policemen changed when they looked at Du Zhong.

And before that.

They also always thought that Du Zhong and Xu Hongru were deceitful, even if they heard the order from above to cooperate with Xu Hongru well, they were still full of doubts.

But now.

But they understood it thoroughly.

Du Zhong, not only is he not a liar, but he is also a real master of medical skills.

This made the image of Du Zhong in the hearts of the two policemen instantly have a qualitative improvement.

I have to say.

The chilled mineral water delivered by the family of three is simply a carbon in the snow.

The group didn't eat anything, and they felt extremely comfortable and satisfied just drinking mineral water.

Time flies.

In the blink of an eye.

Sunset and dusk.

"Buzz ......"

As the sun set in the west, this desolate Gobi-like flaming mountain suddenly began to blow gusts of cold wind.

The wind flow gradually sweeps away the heat in the air.

And under the blowing of the cold wind.

The sky gradually covered with a layer of black.

Night.

The mountain of flames, pitch black.

"Almost."

Du Zhong, who was sitting cross-legged and resting, suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Let's start looking." ”

"Yes."

Xu Hongru nodded.

"Yes."

The two policemen shouted as if they were listening to orders.

During the boring waiting at noon, Du Zhong explained to the two policemen that the purpose of coming here this time was to find the scorpion.

After knowing this task.

At Du Zhong's request, the two policemen rushed back to the police station to get some UV light sticks.

Because the scorpion itself is black, relatively small, and grows in sandstone areas, it is impossible to see clearly with the naked eye when it is dark.

Even with ordinary lights, it is difficult to see.

Under the irradiation of ultraviolet light, the scorpion will emit a green fluorescence all over its body, which makes it easy for people to see clearly.

Therefore.

When looking for scorpions, ultraviolet light sticks are used.

Four people.

Each of them held a UV light stick in their hands and looked around for the scorpion.

"Here."

Not long after the search, a policeman suddenly exclaimed.

This shout.

Immediately the people gathered together.

"Huh?"

When he got closer, Du Zhong found that what the policeman had found was just an ordinary scorpion, a rainbow-colored scorpion that was not as transparent as glass as described by the child who had been pierced.

"No, keep looking."

Du Zhong shook his head.

The crowd continued to scatter in search of him.

Not for a while.

Eucommia also found a scorpion, but when he looked closely, he found that it was still an ordinary scorpion.

Over time.

One by one, the scorpions were constantly found, but none of them were needed by Eucommia.

The search continues.

The second half of the night.

In the whistling of the cold wind.

"Rustling ......"

There was a rustling sound, and suddenly it sounded in the dark night sky.

"Huh?"

Hearing the rustling sound, a policeman who was nearby immediately turned around with a UV light stick to shine it.

But this photo.

His face turned pale.

"Ahh

Screams rang out.

Not far away.

Du Zhong and the others turned their heads sharply and immediately rushed to this side.

Come up close and take a look.

Saw.

Under the illumination of ultraviolet light sticks, there were scorpions on the ground, quickly surrounding them from all directions.

It's like a stream of water.

In the incessant rustling sound, the scorpion, like a stream of water, surrounded all four of them in the blink of an eye.

Looked at.

The faces of the two policemen turned pale.

So many scorpions, what to do?

Moreover, these scorpions are all poisonous.

It's over, it's dead this time!

"There must be a Scorpion King."

Just when the two policemen were panicking, looking at the scorpions all over the ground, Du Zhong suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I estimate that the scorpion king is very likely to be what we are looking for." ”

"So what now?"

"The scorpions are coming."

"What are we going to do?"

Seeing the scorpion rushing to his feet, the two policemen shouted with panic on their faces.

That's when it happened.

"Smack!"

Just hear a beat.

Xu Hongru, who was standing behind the two of them, suddenly stretched out two hands, grabbed the back collars of the two, and then tiptoed and rose directly into the air.

"Huh?"

The two policemen were dumbfounded.

The scorpions that flowed all over the ground made them feel cold, but when they reacted, they found that they had actually flew.

I watched myself get higher and higher off the ground.

The two of them were even more frightened and speechless.

"Huh."

At the same time that Xu Hongru took the two of them to take off, Du Zhong did not hesitate, directly took off into the air, took out a fluorescent light stick in his hand, and directly took out an ultraviolet flashlight from his waist and began to radiate it in all directions.

But.

searched it again, but found the existence of the so-called scorpion king at all.

"Could it be that the Scorpion King is not in this group of scorpions?"

With a thought, Du Zhong raised his eyebrows slightly.

And this side.

"You can fly too?"

Seeing Du Zhong flying in the air, the two policemen stared at Du Zhong even more and looked at Du Zhong with a shocked expression.

Didn't bother with the two.

Du Zhong turned his head to look at Xu Hongru, opened his mouth and said, "Political commissar, you can observe it, I'll go down and take a look." ”

"Yes."

Xu Hongru nodded immediately.

The two policemen were dumbfounded.

There are scorpions all over the ground below, and Du Zhong still wants to go down?

Isn't this looking for death?

Under the frightened and inexplicable gaze of the two, Du Zhong's body moved, and he slowly landed towards a vacant ground in the scorpion group......
