Chapter 162: Is This the Wrong Person?
Behind the swamp, there are reckless mountain forests.
After finding a place for fresh water, the three of them washed off their bodies covered in mud, and Xia Qiu picked a few herbs to reduce swelling nearby and pounded them with stones, and applied medicine to Lu Tingxiu and his wounds.
Lu Tingxiu stared at her wound and said thoughtfully: "Those crocodiles, are you afraid of your blood?" ”
Xia Qiu couldn't help but ponder, the group of blood crocodiles did attack indiscriminately at first, but when she was injured and fell into the mud and her body entered the crocodile's mouth, she suddenly came back to life.
But even if her blood could poison a crocodile to death, what about the two of them?
When the crocodiles left, they were quite unwilling.
"Is it possible that someone is controlling this group of crocodiles?" Xia Qiu still thinks that universal blood is too ridiculous.
Lu Tingxiu also doubted this, but he was busy fighting with crocodiles at that time, so he didn't have time to take care of it.
The battle of the swamp pool is too much physical exertion. Wei Ge went to the forest to hunt pheasants and hares, skillfully slaughtered clean, roasted golden and crispy.
Lu Tingxiu put the rabbit legs and chicken legs, all of which were biased towards Xia Qiu to supplement his body.
Xia Qiu looked at him while eating, her eyes curved like a crescent moon.
Wei Ge didn't understand, he was just eating something, why the two of them looked at each other stupidly and laughed at each other, causing him goosebumps all over his body.
After drinking to their heart's content, the three of them found a hidden forest to rest and recuperate.
With Wei Ge sentry, the two of them were too sleepy and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but Xia Qiu was awakened by the sound of vultures.
After recovering five or six percent of their physical strength, the group continued to set off, still walking towards the place where there were many vultures.
Worried that the black-robed man would appear again, everyone cheered up.
As he walked, Xia Qiu suddenly paused and looked around with a solemn expression.
She had a faint smell of rancidity, a faint smell that was still caught by her keen sense of smell.
After looking around, he found Sensen's white bones in a trench not far away.
At first glance, there are hundreds of pairs of white bones, and the degree of weathering is different from old to new. Preliminary judgment, the old one is several years old, and the new one is no more than half a month.
"Are you mistaken?" Wei Ge was puzzled, "Sister Xia, for half a month, the corpse has not completely decomposed." ””
Lu Tingxiu squatted down and carefully examined the bones, "The periosteum of these corpses is fresh and complete, and there are few traces of erosion, so they have indeed just died." ”
However, how do you manage to make the bones clean and free of any carrion in a short period of time? Cooking destroys the periosteum, the bone becomes older in color and less hard. It is impossible to be so clean with carrion.
When he was puzzled, he set his eyes on Xia Qiu. She knows medicine, maybe she knows something.
Xia Qiu's mind was not here, she directly broke off her head and put it between her nose to sniff.
The other two looked at each other speechlessly, almost not throwing up.
The taste is too heavy, and Lu Tingxiu deeply feels that he must keep his distance from her in the future.
"It stenges of the living dead." Xia Qiu threw the head back into the trench.
Lu Tingxiu looked at the vultures in the sky, even if they ate carrion, it was impossible for them to eat so cleanly and thoroughly.
The bones in the trenches were of various sizes, but they were much smaller than adults, and they were supposed to be children ranging from a few years old to a teenager.
Lu Tingxiu couldn't help but think of the human trafficker Feng Yuzhu, the whereabouts of the child she abducted and sold have not been found out so far, and the hundreds of corpses in front of her are difficult not to recall.
Now that the bones have been discovered, it is not far from the grave of the living dead.
The closer you get, the more careful you have to be.
Just as he was about to continue his journey, Wei Ge suddenly felt a pain in his feet, and he subconsciously slapped him.
In the palm of the hand, there is an ant sticking to it, which is much larger than an ordinary ant.
The bite was like a needle prick, painful and itchy, and he kept scratching it with his hand.
I casually looked down, and saw a lot of ants on the ground, climbing up to my feet.
Wei Ge jumped up and kept stepping on the ants.
Xia Qiu was surprised that her feet were also bitten, and the pain made her stomp her feet immediately.
This stamped was unbearable, there were more and more ants on the ground, and there were black things in the distance, which were swarming like a tide on the ground.
When he saw the appearance of the ant, Lu Tingxiu's face suddenly changed, "It's not good, it's a man-eating ant." ”
He had read in the book "Strange Chronicles" that man-eating ants mostly live in the rainforest, their bodies are huge, they can secrete special substances in their bodies, they can melt the flesh, they are very fast in swarms, and there are tens of millions of ants in a nest, which can eat up live cattle in a short time.
The white bones in the trench should be their masterpiece.
"Let's go." Lu Tingxiu pulled Xia Qiu and ran to a place where there were no ants.
Ants outflanked them from all directions, and their speed was no less than that of a human running.
Chasing wildly behind them, being flanked left and right, the two people who were running out of breath saw a pond in front of them, and ran over without saying a word, who knew that there was a black girl and a man-eating ant in front of them.
The road was completely blocked, so she could only dodge nearby, Lu Tingxiu picked up Xia Qiu and asked her to climb up the tree.
The swamp had exhausted all his internal strength, and he could no longer leap into the tree with light effort.
He lifted her up the tree and climbed it up another tree.
As soon as I climbed the tree, before I could catch my breath, the man-eating ants had already chased to the tree. They split into two teams and keep climbing the tree.
Xia and Autumn are completely dumbfounded, man-eating ants are far more dangerous than crocodiles, they can't be killed endlessly, and once they are surrounded by swarming, they can turn into white bones in an instant.
And Lu Tingxiu's side is not much better, there are pioneer ants that have already climbed on his feet.
Seeing that the ants were about to get up, Xia Qiu's mind suddenly flashed the scene of the swamp pool. Whether the guess is right or wrong, try it and you'll know.
Xia Qiu bit his finger hard, and red blood beads dripped from his fingertips.
"Pop ......"
"Pop ......"
Blood dripped in the dense colony.
The ant colony, which was dripping with blood, suddenly stopped moving forward and quickly retreated.
The two looked at each other across the tree, looking at each other. Dare to love, this is really universal blood?
Like a tide rushing in and out, dense man-eating ants disappeared into the mountains and forests in a moment.
Xia Qiu climbed down the tree, and his legs were weak.
After recovering their senses, the two realized that Wei Ge was gone.
This mountain forest is too dangerous, and once it is scattered, it will be more than lucky.
The two hurriedly looked back, and just walked less than a hundred steps, when suddenly many black-robed people appeared in the air, "What person?" ”
There were more than thirty black-robed men, armed with weapons, and surrounded the two.
Come on, not to mention that Lu Tingxiu is injured, even if he has three heads and six arms, he is not their opponent.
To say not to despair, too fake.
Xia Qiu walked out from behind Lu Tingxiu, smiling more ugly than crying, "Ladies and gentlemen, we got lost in the mountains to collect medicine, and we are really embarrassed to enter your territory by mistake, please raise your noble hands, the matter of money is easy to discuss......"
"Miss Joe?" The black-robed man at the head was stunned, "Why are you here?" ”
Xia Qiu was stunned, and only after a while did he stiffly smile: "I...... I was passing by. ”
The black-robed leader breathed a sigh of relief, "Where have you been?" You've been looking for you for a long time. ”
Obediently, is this the wrong person?
Looking at their attitude, it seems that they are very ...... to Miss Qiao Respectful.
