The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind
Dirty blood splattered onto the ground, like a large living insect, quickly hiding under the gravel, leaving only a faint dark red trail on the surface.
I looked at the medicine woman in surprise and asked, "How can this be?" I was bitten for less than 10 minutes, and the blood in this wound looked like ...... Like the smell of carrion? ”
Yes, carrion! Only the smell of the carrion corpse will be so fishy and unpleasant, and only the liquid exuded from the carrion corpse will "look like blood, and its state is water", and it can easily seep into the ground.
The Divine Medicine Woman frowned and explained in an extremely rare way: "In addition to eating camels, this camel-eating bat also eats everything that dies in the desert, including people!" Their saliva has the ingredient to dissolve corpses, so once bitten, if the wound is not cleaned in time, the saliva will spread along the wound in the human body. Even if you don't get rabies, the injured person will slowly rot! However, it usually takes a few days for the phenomenon of decay to appear, and I don't know why you react so quickly. ”
The spell of turning into a stone statue was fulfilled in advance, and now, even the muscles decay much faster than ordinary people, although I still don't understand the reason, but I vaguely feel: time seems to be adjusted a lot faster on me! My body's reflexes are also accelerating, and if I miss this opportunity to find the last gold medal, there is a good chance that I will be mostly petrified and unable to move before the next opportunity comes!
I was thinking about it when the medicine woman took out a small round white porcelain medicine bottle from the placket of her clothes, threw it to me in the air, and said coldly, "Sprinkle it yourself." If you don't want to see those people die, go and paint them with some too. ”
I reached out and caught it, and sprinkled some on my wound first. The white powder fell on the exposed flesh and blood muscle tissue, and instantly like quicklime stained with water, a layer of white foam bubbled up, and at the same time, the wound was in a hot pain. After the white foam, the wound that had been blurred with flesh and blood turned out to be a thin dark red scar as if it had been burned.
This thin layer of scar can isolate the path of infection to the wound from the outside world.
The white powder of the medicine woman has a miraculous effect, and I am going to sprinkle some on all the wounded before I set out, as well as the camels, which are carrying heavy loads in the desert, and need to take care of their wounds.
"Grandma, are you really not leaving?" I asked her one last time.
The Medicine Lady raised her head, glanced at the night sky with her gloomy eyes, sneered, and said to me, "Stinky boy, don't waste your efforts. Don't talk about you, it's Qin Lao Liu, please go back now, my wife won't listen to him! ”
Zhang Xuefeng blew the assembly and whistle again, and the fake mercenaries instantly lined up and assembled. The sixth master's team is also ready to go. I had no choice but to give up the advice, go back to the pile, sprinkle some powder on all the wounded, and finally give the remaining half of the bottle to the Uighur guide to treat the wounds on the camels.
The Uighur guide reluctantly pulled the camel out of the pen with a gloomy face, allowing the black-clad man and the mercenaries to carry the equipment and supplies on the camel's back.
"If you can do without those heavy things, you won't have to bring them! The most important thing in the desert is water. The Uighur guide stood by the caravan and couldn't help but admonish those who were carrying luggage.
Zhang Xuefeng grimaced and glanced at the Uyghur guide coldly, and the Uyghur guide stopped talking.
The black bull made three sets of equipment in the earthen house, poked his head out of the hole in the wall, whistled at me, beckoned, and motioned for me to come over to help tidy up, and I flipped in.
Outside the wall, Tom. Li was still huddled in the corner of the wall with a sheepskin blanket, discussing his plan with the sixth master in stiff Mandarin, and he said: "It's okay to leave me four people, I'll wait here for my caravan, they will arrive this afternoon at the latest!" I'm going to be with my caravan! ”
The sixth master hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, "It's okay, when the time comes, you follow the copy map I gave you, and strive to catch up with us within two days, if it's really too late, I will leave you a sign on the route that disappeared at the end." In short, Mr. Tom, I hope you can understand the current situation: there are countless treasures hidden in the desert, and they may well become our resistance! ”
Tom. Li Ru was re-released, and promised with a mouthful of promises: "Sixth Master, don't worry, I know what to do!" My caravan is all elite, and in order to ensure that this transaction is foolproof, I have spent a lot of money to buy them equipment. ”
"That's good, but there's one more thing." The sixth master lowered his voice and said, "I don't want Miss Gu's follow-up team to appear in front of me, you may be able to fight a beautiful ambush battle here!" ”
During the whole conversation, I and the black bull could hear clearly through the earthen wall. Only then did I realize in my heart that the sixth master had a copy of the map of the Shahai Hades Palace in his hand, but the copy was also a fragment, which should have been copied on the night of the end of the birthday banquet. At that time, he found that the map was damaged by tea stains, so he came up with an idea, pretending to take it out on the train and hand it to Gu Yixin. The purpose was simply to let me use my astrological knowledge to help him find the missing route.
Just as he was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the wall, and it seemed that the two old foxes had already walked away.
The black bull smacked me with his elbow, lowered his voice and said, "Old Su, did you hear it just now, 'The praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind', I still want to, Tom. Why didn't Li, the old fritter, bring a helper to do business, he only brought a small follower, and it turned out that his people were fucking behind! is also ready to hold back the bad people who ambush Xiao Gu here! Lao Su, we have to talk to Xiao Gu and let her people be on guard! ”
"Well, I'll go find her, you go to Gao Moli and tell him what you know." With that, I picked up a reduced equipment bag and crawled out of the hole in the wall to find Gu Yixin.
After searching around the camp, they didn't see her, Zhang Xuefeng and his party were ready and looking for her. I thought about it for a moment, and walked towards the earthen temple, and if it was good, she should be looking at the warning murals in the cave.
The sixth master boasted that he had been on a trip to the Sand Sea, and he was quite disdainful of the content on the mural I described, but Gu Yixin was different, she was thoughtful and cautious, and she would not let go of anything related to the Sand Sea Hades Palace.
The night was hazy, the camp was noisy, I walked into the temple, only to see a light behind the collapsed stone statue base, and walked quickly to the edge of the cave, before I had time to call Gu Yixin.
I saw Gu Yixin standing at the bottom of the cave, turned around suddenly, and pulled out a "May Fourth" from her waist at a very fast speed, at the same time, she held the wolf's eye flashlight in one hand and the "May Fourth" in the other, aiming the light and the shooting port at my head at the same time.
I hurriedly subconsciously raised my hand and explained repeatedly: "Don't be impulsive! It's me! ”
As I spoke, I vaguely realized that something was wrong: when she was in the tomb of the Yizhou Thorn History, she was far less skilled in using "Thompson", why did she become so agile in just over ten days?
She holds the posture of "May Fourth", like a long-trained killer!
