Chapter 12: Overnight stay
The grasshopper is a annelid that feeds on the blood of humans or animals.
Although a small amount of locust sucking blood does not cause human death, the amount of blood sucked by hundreds of locusts in a short period of time is also very staggering, and if the amount of blood loss in the human body exceeds 1000 ml, then it may be life-threatening.
Bai Yuxuan's situation at the moment is not good.
At first, he didn't feel anything, but slowly, he felt dizzy in his head and black in front of his eyes, which is a typical sign of excessive blood loss.
The grasshopper got into Bai Yuxuan's clothes from the trouser legs, cuffs, and neckline.
In fact, it doesn't feel much when you are sucked by grasshoppers, only when you lose too much blood, feel dizzy, and your eyes are black.
Gradually, Bai Yuxuan couldn't support it anymore and dizzy.
Almost at the same time that Bai Yuxuan fainted, Lu Zhentian arrived at the bottom of the hillside.
"Hey! Feed! Bai Yuxuan!! ”
Lu Zhentian yelled at Bai Yuxuan a few times, and when he saw that he didn't react in the slightest, he immediately panicked.
Lu Zhentian was thinking about what he had to do to save Bai Yuxuan quickly.
Obviously he couldn't have gone down to the swamp himself, and it would have been bad if he had fallen into it.
If Bai Yuxuan is still awake at this time, then it will be easy to do, just throw one end of the rope to him and let him climb out by himself. But now Bai Yuxuan has fallen into a coma.
If you don't hurry up and wait until Bai Yuxuan's body completely sinks into the swamp, I'm afraid there will only be a 0.1% chance at that time.
After a short period of thought, Lu Zhentian finally made what he thought was the most correct plan.
He started by tying another nylon rope into a slippery baro, leaving plenty of space.
Then he threw the nylon rope towards Bai Yuxuan with all his might, causing Bai Yuxuan's legs to pass between the knots.
Then Lu Zhentian slowly slid the rope up until the knot reached Bai Yuxuan's armpit and was firmly fixed.
In the end, Lu Zhentian pulled the rope with all his might.
The nylon rope that Bai Yuxuan bought has extremely high strength, and each square centimeter is enough to withstand a thousand ox of tensile force.
Lu Zhentian was so tired that he was out of breath and couldn't pull Bai Yuxuan out of the swamp.
"You pull this rope hard, too!"
Lu Zhentian shouted at Zhou Xiwei above.
“1,2,1,2,1,2……”
They shouted the trumpet and pulled back together.
Slowly, Bai Yuxuan's upper body was completely exposed, followed by the lower body, and finally, Bai Yuxuan was completely dragged out of the swamp.
But at this time, Bai Yuxuan's situation was still very bad.
He was still unconscious, and there were a number of locusts crawling on his body.
Lu Zhentian stepped forward to support Bai Yuxuan, carried his body with his shoulder, pulled the rope with the other hand, and returned to the flat ground step by step.
They first laid Bai Yuxuan flat on the ground, took off all his clothes, and cleaned the mud off his hands and face.
When the sludge on Bai Yuxuan's face was wiped away, it could be seen that his face had become extremely pale, like a blank piece of paper, and his lips had also become very white, which was a sign of severe blood loss.
At this time, there were still dozens of locusts on Bai Yuxuan's body sucking his blood.
The grasshoppers were most afraid of fire, Zhou Xiwei took out a lighter and burned the heads of the grasshoppers one by one, and after a while, all the grasshoppers fell off Bai Yuxuan's body.
Lu Zhentian carefully checked Bai Yuxuan's mouth and ears, but fortunately, no grasshoppers had penetrated Bai Yuxuan's body from here.
Then Zhou Xiwei shook all the locusts on Bai Yuxuan's clothes to the ground, and burned them all.
Bai Yuxuan's body was full of wounds left by the locust's blood, and these wounds had to be treated with alcohol.
Lu Zhentian and Zhou Xiwei took care of all the wounds on Bai Yuxuan's body, and then found a set of clean clothes for Bai Yuxuan to change into.
When all this was done, both of them became exhausted and collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.
After resting for about half an hour, Bai Yuxuan still showed no signs of waking up.
So Lu Zhentian said to Zhou Xiwei: "You are watching him here, I will go to the front to see if there is any place suitable for camping, let's go here today." ”
After speaking, Lu Zhentian got up with difficulty and walked forward.
It didn't take long for him to return.
"There's a clearing in front of me in the woods, and I'm looking around to see if there's no danger, so let's set up our tent there today."
"You are responsible for getting Bai Yuxuan over, and I will carry the bag."
By the time they had moved Bai Yuxuan and his luggage intact to the clearing, they were exhausted again.
After resting for about forty minutes again, Lu Zhentian finally began to set up his tent.
The tent that Bai Yuxuan bought is relatively simple to set up, and the firmness is also very good.
Lu Zhentian followed the instructions and it took only more than 20 minutes to completely set up the tent.
"Hmm...... So thirsty, ...... water"
It was also at this time that Bai Yuxuan, who had been unconscious, finally showed signs of waking up.
A few slurred words came out of his mouth, and at this time he was not fully conscious, but in a semi-unconscious and half-conscious state.
Zhou Xiwei hurriedly helped Bai Yuxuan up and let him lean against a tree.
Then he was fed a little mineral water, and after a few minutes, Bai Yuxuan finally opened his eyes leisurely.
"We ...... This is... Where is it? ”
Bai Yuxuan looked around blankly, and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Wake up......"
Lu Zhentian also noticed Bai Yuxuan, who had come to his senses, and stepped forward and asked, "How are you feeling now?" ”
"Hmm...... It's okay, it's just that I'm dizzy......"
"Can you walk?"
Bai Yuxuan held the trunk of the tree in his hand and tried to stand up, but he never succeeded.
"Come, I'll help you into the tent. You'll have a good night's rest tonight. ”
Lu Zhentian squatted down and carried Bai Yuxuan up, helping him slowly walk towards the tent.
After settling Bai Yuxuan, Lu Zhentian and Zhou Xiwei sat on both sides of the tent left and right.
Lu Zhentian looked at the time, it was already half past six in the afternoon, and the sky here had become dark.
"We still have to start a fire as soon as possible." Lu Zhentian took out a flashlight from his bag, walked around the nearby woods, and soon found a large bundle of dry branches.
He piled up the branches in front of the tent and burned them with a little kerosene, and soon a blazing fire was lit.
"I'll go pick up more branches and come back." Zhou Xiwei picked up his flashlight and walked into the woods.
"What? Hungry? Would you like something to eat? ”
Lu Zhentian lifted the curtain of the tent and asked Bai Yuxuan.
Bai Yuxuan was already asleep in the tent, snoring evenly.
"Asleep? Forget it, let him have a good rest. ”
So Lu Zhentian opened a pack of compressed biscuits and ate them by himself.
When Lu Zhentian finished eating a pack of compressed biscuits, Zhou Xiwei had not returned.
"What is he doing?! Haven't come back for so long. ”
Lu Zhentian tightened the zipper of the tent curtain, then added some branches to the fire, and then walked into the woods.
