Chapter 154: Bad Situation
Grunt!
Almost at the same moment, all six people, including me, had their stomachs growling.
At first, I didn't react, but after seeing the embarrassed expressions of the other five people, I realized that I was feeling hungry again.
I haven't felt hungry for a long time, but I didn't expect that after Dao Xing was sealed for a while, I felt a strong feeling of hunger.
However, there was no food to eat here, and I didn't prepare it when I came.
I noticed that the old man of the Daomen also had a very ugly face, and I guess he didn't expect this situation.
The big man frowned, but didn't say anything.
The faces of the three girls turned red all at once, especially the timid girl who came in at the end, and they were about to cry with embarrassment.
But we all tacitly didn't mention it, but asked each other what they were here for.
At first, the three girls and the old man who came in later were reluctant to speak, and when they heard me and the big man say that they were also here to hunt for treasure.
I was surprised, you know, it was only after I cracked the secret of the Longyuan Sword that I knew that the Longyuan treasure might be in Kunlun, how did they know?
Especially for the other four people except for the old man of the Daomen, as soon as I looked at the hiking bags on their backs, I knew that they must all be ordinary people.
I was afraid of arousing their hostility, so I didn't ask for a while.
"What's written on this?"
At this time, the old man of the Daomen found the words on the wall and asked immediately.
I didn't have a good impression of the old man of Daomen, so I said, "You better see for yourself." ”
The old man glared at me, walked to the wall, and looked at it, and after reading it, his face became even more gloomy.
The other four people also frowned after reading it, and asked puzzled what it meant.
"Can't you see this, it says, like this small stone house, there are five in the entire Wushan, in addition to the six of us, there are thirty other people, but in the end, only one person will survive, so what is the inheritance of the forbidden land of Wushan, it must be the treasure we are looking for."
The old man of Daomen said angrily.
"Which of you has something to eat?" Hearing the words of the old man of the Daomen, several people were silent, and after a while, the big man suddenly said.
I guess he was hungry, otherwise he wouldn't have asked anyone else if they had any food.
As a result, everyone shook their heads, and all three girls said that they were hungry when they came here after eating up all the food and water.
Only me and the old man of Daomen did not express his position, but we don't need to express our position, because the old man of Daomen didn't wear anything except a peachwood short sword in his waist.
I'm the same, except for the Long Yuan Sword behind me, I don't have a bag.
"It's really troublesome, ******, I would have brought more food if I had known, and I went to the lake to see if there were any fish." The big man cursed and walked out of the small stone house.
I don't know whether to talk to them or not, subconsciously, I always feel that things will not be so simple, thirty-five people will die in three days, are they all starved to death?
To tell the truth, I was also very hungry, my chest was close to my back, I hesitated for a moment, and then walked out of the small stone house, planning to go down to the lake with the big man to fish.
It's just that I didn't pay attention when I fell into the lake before, and I didn't know that there were no fish under the water.
The big man came to the lake, took off his shirt directly, jumped into the water, and five minutes later, he came up scolding: "Hell, there is not a single fish!" ”
As he spoke, he picked up the water in the lake with his hand again, and drank it with a clatter, wanting to satisfy his hunger with water.
I'm hungry too, and I want to go over and drink some water.
"Wait, that water can't be drunk!"
I was about to make a move when Ozawa stopped me.
I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said to Ozawa: "Don't worry, the lake water is fresh water, and you can drink it." ”
Ozawa replied: "No, there is something in the water, and this water must not be drunk, if it is really fresh water, there will not be even a single fish." ”
I frowned and subconsciously looked at the big guy.
The big guy who has been filling his stomach at this time has already walked to the shore.
As a result, just as he was getting dressed, the big man shook and suddenly fell to the ground and convulsed.
My heart tightened, and I hurriedly stepped forward, and when I saw that the big man was already foaming at the mouth.
Poisoned?
As soon as I tried to get the water out of the big man's stomach, I found that the white foam in the big man's mouth turned red, and then from his nostrils, ears, and even the corners of his eyes, there were slender worms like earthworms.
The bugs, as soon as they appeared, swam into the lake.
The next moment, the big man kicked his feet and stopped moving.
I was scared, this is dead?
"That's the Copper Snake! There is really something wrong with the water in this lake, the eggs of the copper wire snake are in the water, which cannot be seen by the naked eye, and once it enters the animal's body, it will grow wildly, and it will not take a minute to kill the host. Ozawa explained to me right away.
I was shocked, so to speak, the lake water is undrinkable.
"Ahh
At this time, the three girls who heard the movement and the old man of the Daomen also walked out of the stone house, and the three girls screamed in fright as soon as they saw that the big man was dead, and their facial features kept looking like copper wire snakes.
The old man of the Daomen said calmly: "Stupid, if the lake water can be drunk, will thirty-five people die, now it's okay, there are thirty-four." ”
I frowned, since the water is not drinkable, and there is no food here, I can only go to the forest on the mountain to find food, there are many trees on the mountain, there will definitely be animals.
So I immediately proposed to take the weapons in the stone house and go up the mountain to hunt.
While you still have the physical strength now, catch a pheasant or a rabbit or something and roast it, and you can solve the problem of food.
"It's useless, although there is a forest on the mountain, it is too quiet, there is not even a bird call, I guess there is not a single animal on it." Ozawa reminded me again.
I was stunned, if I continue like this, if I don't eat or drink, won't I starve to death?
Ozawa said: "I won't starve to death, because the wall says that thirty-five people will die in three days, and without eating or drinking, the limit of a person can live for about five days, so it is definitely not a way to starve to death, otherwise, there will not be only one person who will survive at that time." ”
My heart sank, and I felt that what Ozawa said was very reasonable, but I can't sit still here, the taste of hunger is really uncomfortable.
"Well, you can go up the mountain to see, maybe the animals are hiding, in fact, I'm hungry too, alas, I haven't felt this way for a long time." Ozawa thought for a moment and said.
The old man of the Daomen acquiesced to my opinion, and the timid girl also nodded, but the two women with heavy makeup said: "You go hunting, how about we go to collect firewood and make a fire, the water in the lake can be drunk after boiling, how about it?" ”
After a moment's thought, there really should be a division of labor.
That's fine, and I agreed to the proposal of the two of them right away.
The timid girl hesitated, looked at the two women with heavy makeup, wanted to stay with them, turned her head and looked at me again, as if she also wanted to go hunting with me and the old man of the Daomen.
After a few moments, the timid girl made a decision, walked up to me gently, and whispered, "I, I'll go hunting with you." ”
I smiled and said yes, asked her to go to the stone hut and get a stone knife, and walked up the hill.
The old man of the Daomen seemed unwilling to communicate with me more, and followed me not far or close, while the timid girl followed me closely.
I couldn't help but look back and ask her, "What's your name?" ”
The timid girl shrunk her neck and said that her name was Zhang Ran, but she had the audacity to ask my name.
When I told her her name, I asked her how she got here.
Zhang Ran hesitated and replied: "I need money, someone told me that there is a treasure in Kunlun Mountain, let me find it, as long as I find the treasure, I can sell anything for a lot of money." ”
I didn't ask her why she needed money, just look at the clothes on her body and tell that she was in a bad financial situation.
What I wonder is, who told her that there is treasure in Kunlun Mountain, she is just an ordinary person, who will tell her the news?
Listening to the meaning of her words, she didn't seem to know that the treasure was the treasure of Longyuan.
"Vulgar, dare to come to Kunlun Mountain for money, I think you are too long."
The old man in the back said angrily.
I turned around and said, "Sir, you're not in it for money, so what are you for?" ”
The old man of Daomen said directly: "You are also a member of Daomen, why do you still need me to say it?" I have the same purpose as you. ”
I was stunned, could it be that the old man also knew about the treasure of Longyuan?
"Ahh Little Nine Big Brother, look there! ”
At this moment, Zhang Ran suddenly screamed again, pointed to the front and shouted.
When I looked, I saw that there were several skeletons under the tree not far ahead!
