Chapter 266: Mermaid Paste
I felt like my whole body was wrapped in oil, and it was unbearably sticky, and if it weren't for the snow white, but the pale yellow of ordinary fat, I don't even have the desire to touch it.
"Since I don't know if mermaid paste really exists, what about those everlasting lights? I've also heard of an everlasting lamp found in an ancient tomb, if it wasn't for mermaid paste, how could it burn for thousands of years? ”
"You are stupid, the ancient tomb will run out of oxygen, no matter how low the ignition point is, it will not burn, and when the ancient tomb is opened, the air circulation, it will naturally ignite again, even if there is a real estimate of this kind of thing, it is pitiful, those tombs must be something else, maybe it is white phosphorus, as long as the tomb is soaked in cold water before sealing, as soon as the tomb door is closed, the oxygen is lost, the water in the lamp slowly evaporates, and the white phosphorus will be exposed, as long as the oxygen is sufficient, it will rekindle."
I still want to ask more, but Ah Chuan has already gone to the other side, there are loopholes in his statement, white phosphorus does fit, but it burns quickly, it can't be lit all the time, it can only be something else.
Whether it's mermaid paste or not, I'm interested in it, and it would be nice if I could take some out of here, but unfortunately we came this time with the determination to die, and we didn't bring any storage items.
"Eleven, did you hear that?" Ah Chuan suddenly burst out and walked lightly to a rock crevice.
"Yes." Eleventh round.
I quieted down, followed Achuan to the edge of the rock wall, and pressed my ear to the rock wall, I heard a series of stray footsteps, very slight, but gradually getting bigger, and someone was approaching us.
The sound of these footsteps was by no means a person, and it was very fast, my heart tightened, and I pulled Ah Chuan: "What kind of door is this?" ”
"Shocking." Agawa replied.
I opened my mouth and said "ah", and quickly covered my mouth, Ah Chuan laughed lowly: "The hexagram shape doesn't mean anything, you see that the birth gate is not also a dead end." ”
He's right, but I'm uncomfortable, I'd rather these paths be the opposite of their hexagrams, and being inaccurate means that we don't know where the real way out is.
The footsteps are getting closer and closer, you don't have to lean against the stone wall to hear it, we left the hole, retreated to the Bagua map, and looked at the hole in front of us in unison, the sound was getting closer and closer, I could hear a heavy wheezing, it was nineteen.
I was too familiar with his voice, and my heart felt like a stone had fallen to the ground, and soon two figures appeared at the entrance of the cave, and sure enough, it was Brother Shen and Nineteen.
"Osawa! How are you? Are there any injuries? Have you met those people? ”
Nineteen saw me scream, he was very excited, completely different from his usual calm appearance, he wanted to hug me when he came up, I was startled, and subconsciously stepped back, he glanced at his body, smiled bitterly and put down his hand.
He was covered in mud and water, mixed with blood, it can be said that he was extremely embarrassed, I saw blood flowing out of his cuffs, mixed with mud, the faint red made my heart hurt, but even if it was so embarrassed, his mask did not fall off, and it looked weird and out of tune.
Brother Shen is not much better, he is holding a long sword in his hand, dripping blood, his body is full of dried blood spots, and the hair on his face is splashed with blood droplets, especially on the hair, which is like a small red flower blooming in the silver and white, which is uncomfortable to see.
And their backpacks are all gone, only Brother Shen is still carrying two oxygen cylinders, they must have encountered extremely tricky things, otherwise they wouldn't be so embarrassed.
"What the hell have you encountered? 19. What did you see in that hole? Brother God, you ......"
I suddenly remembered the words of the fake Ah Chuan, shivered, and took the second half of the sentence back, I saw that Brother Shen's gaze was different, he frowned slightly, and looked at me with extremely sharp eyes, with an inquiring meaning.
I looked away and stared at Nineteen, who smiled at the corners of his mouth, and his voice was obviously weak: "It's nothing, a white shadow." ”
I was shocked: "Do you see what it looks like?" ”
Nineteen shook his head: "No, it was gone after a while, and after entering, the rock under me suddenly moved and opened a hole, and I fell." ”
Nineteen saw a white shadow, and the rest of the encounters were the same as Eleven, so only I had the worst luck and met the monster head-on.
No, who knows if it's a monster, my eyes moved to Brother Shen again, but he didn't look at me anymore, but half-lowered his eyes at the two raging flames on the ground, after a long time, I have forgotten about them, and now I look, they are still burning, and the fire is not small at all.
"Shark oil." Brother Shen suddenly spoke, and his gaze immediately shifted elsewhere.
What a mermaid paste! I was about to ask him how he couldn't see it, but he walked to the other side of the hole, and he retreated to the edge of the hole, but he was facing the giant furnace, and he was looking at the gossip map on the ground.
Does he understand this too? I can't see through him more and more, he is not only amazing, but also knowledgeable, no, even more than Ah Chuan.
I don't know why, I feel like he's more like he's running away, he doesn't want to face me, he doesn't want to hear me ask questions, Ah Chuan has already started to pick up Nineteen's clothes, and I see that the skin on his upper body is full of large bruises, and the bruises are also covered with dense wounds, as if he has been bitten by many insects.
The most serious was the wound on his right arm, which was a large wound, as if it had been cut by a thick but sharp object, and the flesh on the side of the wound was rolled up, and it had been blistered white, but there was still blood oozing out of the innermost part.
Where the hell did he go, I thought it was safe down here, but I didn't expect him to get hurt like this, it seems that this area is indeed very large, even if I have been around for so long, there is still an area that I have not set foot in.
I remembered Ah Chuan's words again, this island is probably a giant maze, and now it seems that it is really possible, and the road we have traveled has already exceeded his size dozens of times.
"Go under the stove, ready-made warm boiled water, freshly boiled." Ah Chuan is still smiling.
"There's mermaid paste down there......" I blurted out.
"As long as you don't touch it, there's nothing better than fire disinfection, there's no reason not to use it."
Ah Chuan said, helping Nineteen to go to the furnace, Nineteen turned his head and smiled at me, he must have been in pain, I saw that his lips were bloodless, trembling slightly.
It is indeed warm boiled water, but it is also seawater, I know that salt also has the effect of sterilization and disinfection, but it hurts too much when it touches the wound, but Ah Chuan doesn't care about this, and Nineteen doesn't shirk it, I see Ah Chuan holding the water and pouring it on Nineteen's back, Nineteen lowered his head, I can't see his expression, but his body trembles badly, this kind of pain is not something that people can bear at all.
The injuries on Nineteen's body were like small flowers, oozing blood in spots, and the more I looked at it, the more familiar it felt, and I couldn't help but ask: "Nineteen, how did you get hurt, what did you encounter?" ”
"White/idiot, take a good look." Nineteen didn't answer, but Ah Chuan raised his head and said.
I was choked by him, half-open mouth couldn't say anything, silently squatted down to Nineteen's side and picked up water to help him clean it, these wounds are indeed very familiar, I was stunned for a moment, I also had this kind of wound on my body, it was injured by those tentacles in the sand hole.
"Are the tentacles?"
I screamed, and my voice changed, and those tentacle monsters were obviously on the upper level, with two layers in the middle, how could they appear again.
"It's where I fell, but it's on the edge, these things ......" Nineteen's voice was low, and he stopped halfway through speaking.
This island is really wrong.,Is the space in here misplaced?,I started to think in a strange direction again.,After thinking about it for a long time, I felt stupid.,Maybe there's a place below that is suitable for tentacle monsters to live.,Who knows where they're distributed.,Even if an invisible monster suddenly appears here, it's not impossible.。
It seems that my luck is not bad, Nineteen lost all the equipment, and was injured like this, if I was replaced, I would definitely not have a small life to come out, I felt scared again, in fact, my situation is also very dangerous, when I met that fake Achuan, maybe I could be killed by him if I said the wrong word.
"What's wrong with these things?" I answered.
"Nothing." Nineteen's voice was muffled, as if something was being hidden.
I didn't ask again, we finished rinsing him, Ah Chuan opened another bottle of drinking water, gave him a brief flush, Ah Chuan began to treat the injury on his right arm, and I used tweezers to hold an alcohol cotton to disinfect his small wounds.
I turned my head to look at Brother Shen, he was looking around the gossip map, and had already turned to the other side, I lowered my voice, leaned into Nineteen's ear, and asked softly, "When did you meet Brother Shen?" ”
Nineteen glanced at me with a strange look in his eyes, he didn't seem to understand why I was so guarded, but he replied in a very soft voice, "When I was entangled with those tentacles, he suddenly appeared to help me. ”
"How long did he show up after you fell?" I can't wait to ask.
"Osawa, what's wrong?" Nineteen turned his head, his eyes like a deep pool, dark and gloomy.
"It's nothing, just ask." I was very weak-hearted, and as soon as I opened my eyes and met Achuan's gaze again, he squinted at me slightly, as if he had grabbed my pigtails.
The corners of Nineteen's mouth curled: "It didn't take long, I wouldn't have survived without him." ”
"Oh."
I replied lightly, but my heart was like a river overturning, I always suspected that the monster that strangled my neck was Brother God, since Nineteen said so, it must not be, I hesitated for a long time, Brother God at that time must have been helping Nineteen.
It's not him, it's really not him! I feel that my whole body is relaxed, like the turbidity that has been stagnant for a long time is suddenly discharged, there is nothing to describe the feeling of ease now, that fake Ah Chuan is really guiding me, making me and Brother Shen have a rift.
