The fat man came back to his senses after listening to it for a while, in addition to expressing surprise at the strange thing I had encountered, he also lowered his voice and said to me: "I just see that she is not an ordinary person, but according to what you say, since she has saved your life and knows our family, then she should not stab us in the back, but the ...... surnamed Chen" The fat man was silent at this point, and I couldn't help but have some doubts when he mentioned Xiao Chen, but the fat man has been immersed in the underworld for several years, and his ability to see people is very poisonous. If he thinks that Xiao Chen has a problem, then he must have his own reasons. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's just that Xiao Chen doesn't seem to have anything that can catch my attention...... At this time, I suddenly remembered the appearance of Xiao Chen when he asked me that question in the tent of the camp, and I couldn't help frowning slightly.

The two of us were muttering, and another person came out of the tent, and the fat man and I heard the sound and looked through the bonfire, and it turned out to be Cha Si.

Check the height of four and one meters and five, he is a relatively short national man, but the whole person looks dark and strong, full of energy, especially the pair of eyes, reflecting the firelight and walking towards us, giving people the feeling of being even more bright, I didn't speak, the fat man asked angrily: "What?" ”

Cha Si came over and squatted beside the bonfire, looked around and said to the fat man: "Brother Ji, I think it will rain tomorrow, and the road ahead is even more difficult." ”

The fat man picked up a branch and flicked the firewood burning in the campfire, and also looked up at the sky, I remembered that we had equipment such as ponchos and raincoats, so I comforted Cha Si not to worry. Cha Si's eyes flashed with the afterimage of flames, shook his head and said: "If it rains, it will be troublesome, and things like bamboo leaves and green dings will come out of the hole." ”

As soon as I heard this, I suddenly felt my scalp tighten, and asked him: "What did you do a few years ago, the large-scale snake fighting campaign hasn't finished beating that bamboo leaf green?" Are there still green dings? ”

Cha Si nodded and said to me, "No, even in front of you, you can't tell those things, how can you finish the fight." ”

I was speechless for a while, I don't know what to say, Cha Si's words are not a joke, you must know that there are many proverbs like "don't run up the mountain, don't stand on the dead tree, don't love the clear water, don't envy the fresh fruit", "three mosquitoes and a dish, two flower snakes and a sack" and other proverbs, among which the most chilling is "look at the tree Kezi from afar, look at the snake neck closely" This sentence, which describes the poisonous insects and snakes that people can't prevent, what iron hammer flower coral, what krait snake silver krait, and five-step snake pit viper and so on, On the hillside of the stream, in the grass on the trunk of the tree, day and night, all kinds of poisonous snakes are countless, people are unguardable, sometimes people walk in the forest, look up at the sky, will see a big snake gliding over the head of the person by means of the terrain, that situation, not to mention how scary, and the most frightening thing in this is this bamboo leaf green.

This snake is slender and can't grow anywhere, but it has a unique terrifying skill - it will change color, like a chameleon, and it likes to climb on green vegetation such as bamboo on weekdays, hence its name. What's more troublesome is that this kind of small snake has a strong sense of territory, any animal or even a person who enters their territory, they will take the initiative to attack, eject like flying, the speed is extremely fast, once the venom penetrates into the human and animal body, see the blood and seal the throat, even do not need to rescue, directly prepare for the future.

I think of a few snake plagues that happened many years ago, and I can't help but feel nervous, the amount of medicinal powder in Cailiu is not much, and each of the eight people has not been able to wipe much, and the number of ointments and snake ointment we bring is not much more, plus walking in the forest for a whole day, it is diluted by the sweat a lot, this tomorrow will really meet Zhu Yeqing, I don't know if it will work, and in addition to this thing, there are also green dings.

The fat man saw my concerns, groaned slightly, and asked Nacha Sidao: "Si'er, have you learned those skills passed down by your father?" ”

Listening to the fat man's question, the light and shadow flashed in Cha Si's eyes, and nodded, I saw that the two of them were so mysterious and strange, and I was about to ask, when I suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "What did you say...... Could it be a refusal? ”

This rejection of the technique, in fact, is a kind of folk earthwork, there are two kinds of saying about this technique, one is recorded in ancient documents, called "poly", the common ones are gathered snakes, rats, fish, etc., this kind of poly is mostly used to remove the problem or make a living, "Compendium of Materia Medica" has a method that teaches people to grind crab shells into powder to get rid of rodents, it is said that this powder is spread in the cage net pocket and burned to smoke by fire, where the surrounding mice smell this smell, they will gather in groups to greet each other, around the smoke and incense to fight, people will not notice, At this time, as long as the cage net is pulled, all the rats can be destroyed; There is also a record in the "Ancient and Modern Secret Garden" that uses spring swallows to gather fish, saying that the swallows in spring are caught and plucked to pluck the bird's feathers, and then simmered with charcoal fire and placed in the fishing nets.

This method can still be explained scientifically, and the other way of saying it is more evil, the folk call it "rejection", this method is the same as the previous one but does not agree, more is used to drive away and eliminate snakes and scorpions and other poisons, and there are few records in the book, occasionally seen in Miao, Dai, Yi and other frontier minorities are used, it can be regarded as a special person to specialize in the spell, so that the sorcerers are basically the most prestigious soil mages in the clan.

I had heard of this thing when I was a child, but I had never seen it, seeing the fat man nodding at me, I looked at Cha Si on the side in disbelief, there is a way: real people don't show their faces, they don't show their faces, and I really don't see that this rustic local man still has these strange skills.

The fat man explained to me that this Cha Si and his father used to be the soil mage in the village, and the teacher was a doctor, in addition to seeing a doctor and saving people, he also knew some secret techniques in the clan, which were all things that were passed down from generation to generation by their ancestors, and they were very mysterious, and there were not many eye-catching things in their generation. When I called him to be our guide, I also took these factors into account.

In fact, I really didn't regret taking the fat man into the mountain together, although my brother looks like my third uncle is not in shape on weekdays, in fact, his heart and eyes are not worse than me, fine. I listened to them in this way, and although I had doubts in my heart, I was more or less sure, and we talked for more than an hour in front of the campfire, and then we went to rest for the night according to the order of the shift.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, I was woken up by Xiao Chen's hurried voice, he looked panicked and asked me to hurry up to see Xiao Shen, I saw that he looked nervous and knew that it was not good, and he didn't even care about dressing up neatly and walked into the tent where Xiao Shen was resting, the space in the tent was not large, the fat man and the other two administrators were outside the curtain, and when I stretched my head in, I just saw Cailiu and Cha Siyi sitting on the side of Xiao Shen on the left and right, as if they were patrolling to check the pulse, and Xiao Shen was already gray and gray at this time. His lips were closed tightly, his eyes were slightly open, and he looked miserable and about to die.

When I saw Xiao Shen's face, my heart sank, and I hurriedly asked them, "What's the matter?" What happened to him? ”

Cailiu ignored me as always, but Cha Si replied to me: "I'm sick with heat." ”

I heard the old people tell that people who are infected with this disease will first feel hot and cold, then deep coma, and then wake up, and then the symptoms will become extremely paradoxical, the more clothes you wear, the more cold you feel, the less you take off, the more you will feel hot, in the process there will be convulsions, spasms, hydroces leading to vomiting and other symptoms, infected with this disease, people have to be tortured to death.

It was only the second day after entering the mountain, and Xiao Shen was infected with this thing, how can this be good. I originally wanted to go back to Fengshu and settle it in the health center, but after comparing the medical equipment of the archaeological team and the health center, I decided to hurry up the journey and join the archaeological team.

The more you go in the mountain, the denser the vegetation, the trees in the forest are towering into the clouds, the layers of forest umbrellas grow into large areas, covering the sky and the sun can not penetrate a trace of sunlight, the rattan plants on the branches of the ancient trees are pulled down again, forming a green waterfall, even the wind can not blow in, on this scene, the big white blue sky walks in the forest feel gloomy, it is raining in the afternoon, everyone is struggling, there is no interest in chatting, all are drenched in the rain and stepping on the deep leaves in the forest shuttle.

Earlier, before approaching a large bush, I saw that Cha Si had done the snake repelling technique, so I simply pulled a few handfuls of grass on the ground, and then wrapped the grass in my hand in a very strange shape and stuffed it into the mud crevice under my feet, and finally pressed a stone and it was finished. Speaking of which, he did not see any traces of poisonous insects, flowers and snakes along the way, which surprised me for a while.

The weather in the rainforest was unpredictable, and when we walked out of the bushes, the sky was clear and the sun was scorching, but when we looked back, the rain was still pouring down like lightning and thunder above the bushes, and everyone gathered their rain gear and continued their journey according to the topographic map, and near dusk, our team stopped in front of a low cliff stream.

I checked the topographic map repeatedly and concluded that the route I had taken was not wrong, but somehow the narrow passage between the mountain streams in front of me was now full of rocks, large and small, and the road was sealed so that it was called a porcelain solid, and it seemed that it had fallen from a cave in the mountain. I thought about it and thought it was wrong, although it was the rainy season in August and September, but in this primeval jungle with almost 100% forest coverage, there should be no natural disasters such as landslides and mudslides, and even if it did, I saw that the surrounding landforms were not implicated, and the landslide seemed to only occur in the mouth of the mountain stream in front of me. I felt strange and asked the fat man and Chasi, the fat man observed for a moment, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, it's really not a natural landslide, it's someone who blew it up with a lump." ”
