CHAPTER XXII

This itch came very suddenly, Zhao Yu couldn't help but reach out to scratch it, scratched it a few times, his hands itched too much, and scratched each other a few times, only to find that something was wrong, his nails were full of blood!

I saw that the skin of my hands had grown a lot of small red bumps for some reason, which were itchy and unbearable, and some places had ulcerated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhao Yu recalled that when he went down to the bottom of the hole, he was too anxious, and when he unbuckled, the whole person instantly lost his balance and rolled into a piece of grass along the slope.

Zhao Yu grew up in the countryside and found that this was a poisonous weed, known as "rotten foot grass" in the countryside of his hometown, and its scientific name is Otsuka grass, once it comes into contact with the skin, it will cause serious ulceration, which is very powerful. Zhao Yu was eager to flee for his life at that time, and he didn't care, at this time, he was poisoned by poisonous weeds, and his skin had begun to fester, so he was very surprised, and hurriedly went to the underground river to wash it several times.

Fortunately, he later followed the rope left by Captain Li and them, and found their camp, and this kid was really fateful, and he was lucky enough to escape the predation of the giant giant salamander on the cliff wall across the lake. Later, the team doctor injected him with an antibiotic, which stopped the skin from ulcerating.

When I saw braces in our team, I was naturally scared to death, I obviously saw that he was dead, how could he come back from the dead?

After listening to his description and sorting out my thoughts, several key questions came to my mind, remembering that the fat man was attacked by a boulder by the lake, is it really braces that make a ghost from it, how can a thousand catties of boulders be shaken by the strength of a person? Could it be that he is really a ghost?

Captain Li said on the side, "Are you sure he's dead?" There are still many examples of people whose hearts stop beating and then suddenly come back to life, this phenomenon is called 'suspended animation'. ”

Zhao Yu shook his head like a rattle, and immediately retorted: "Impossible! His breathing, pulse, heartbeat was gone, and ...... And the body has already started to get cold! ”

The fat man scolded him: "Bite his mother!" No wonder this decrepit boy tried to murder me again and again, it turned out to be a ghost! ”

I couldn't help but say, "It's still hard to decide whether it's a human or a ghost, think about it, have you ever touched his skin along the way, and have you felt an abnormality in body temperature?" ”

Huang Fatzi and Boss Chen both shook their heads, saying that they kept their distance from us along the way and never touched him at all. I thought about it for a while, and I felt that the braces were a bit similar to the little man, so I said, "If he meets the above conditions, he is already dead, and he has no body temperature, and he has become a ghost, right?" Then he is not the same as the little man before, but the little man was strangled to death by Boss Huang, you think about it, since he is a ghost, how can he die? ”

The fat man immediately retorted: "It's very simple! Maybe he saw that we were too numerous to beat us, so he pretended to be dead! ”

I said that there is also this possibility, but, braces don't look like ghosts along the way, there are no characteristics of ghosts at all, the consciousness is very clear, will be afraid, will be greedy for money, the whole is a "there is always a person who wants to harm me", no different from people.

Captain Li said, "What does a ghost look like? Eerie and scary, blue-faced fangs? Xiaolong, you have a preconceived idea that ghosts are different from people, but have you ever thought that ghosts are human becomes, of course, it conforms to all the characteristics of people, good at disguise, insidious and cunning, greedy for money and lustful, aren't these all human characteristics? Besides, who can tell what kind of existence a ghost is? ”

Captain Li's words almost convinced me, but when I think about it, I always feel that things are not so simple, judging from the behavior of the braces, he doesn't look like a ghost at all, just before we poked it to our faces, he acted in disbelief, as if he didn't realize that he was dead, very strange. If it's really a ghost, since we've seen through it, then there is no reason for him to behave strangely at all. If he is really a ghost, for what purpose is he lurking among us?

We discussed for a long time, but we still couldn't reach a consensus, the only way was to catch the braces, take his temperature, and everything could be decided. But now, this kid went deep into the cave, and he didn't know where to hide, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

Captain Li said that no matter whether he is a human or a ghost, judging from the current situation, there is deep malice towards us, and we must strengthen our precautions against him.

Following Captain Lee's suggestion, we decided to rest at the camp for two more days, but then an incident shortened our plans and forced us to speed up our trip.

It turned out that after the yellow fat man was poisoned by the snake, his body had already deteriorated, and the dark spots on his neck and hands had spread very badly, and the whole looked terrible black, as if the black had penetrated into the skin, and the muscles had begun to die. The doctor injected him with two kinds of serum, both of which are common in caves, but they didn't work. No one had ever seen that white snake, and they didn't know what kind of breed it was, so the special antivenom serum naturally couldn't be mentioned.

I suggested that Captain Li send a few people with weapons to escort Huang Fatzi back the way he came, saying that he could not delay this situation any longer, but he was opposed by Huang Fatzi himself, saying that even if he died, he would not want to go out the same way again. We had no choice but to shorten the date of the break by one day.

Due to the fatigue for a long time, coupled with the pain of the body, this night I slept very deeply, but in the middle of the night, the mouth was violently pressed by a person, I woke up from the shock, opened my eyes to see, it turned out that the person who held my mouth was the only woman in the team, through the light, I saw her put her index finger on her mouth, and made a silent gesture towards me, I don't know what her intentions were.

I felt very strange, what did this woman want to do to me, everyone slept in the middle of the night, and at this time woke me up, and asked me not to speak, who is she wary of?

I nodded my head to indicate that I would not make a sound, and then she slowly raised her hand, and with a very vigilant movement, beckoned me to go with her.

I saw her stop in front of a tent, gently pull it open, and motioned for me to enter. I wondered what she was up to, but I had to follow her instructions and get into the tent.

This is the only tent in the camp, and I wondered before that there was no rain and mosquitoes in the cave, so why build a tent in one fell swoop, is it to take care of the lesbians? Later, when he saw that the woman had not slept in the tent, he was even more strange, and thought that he would ask Captain Li what was the matter tomorrow.

When the woman saw that I had obediently entered the tent, she followed the cat's waist and turned on the pocket flashlight hanging around her neck, so that I could see what was inside.

At first glance, I was not surprised, there was a person lying in this tent, this person looked very tall, about two meters, due to the limited space in the tent, his body curled up. Puzzled, the man had his hands flat on his abdomen and, for some reason, was handcuffed.

I was secretly surprised, and wondered why there was a man hiding in this tent, and he was still handcuffed. At this time, the woman suddenly crouched next to the man, grabbed the man's hair violently, and shone a flashlight on his neck.

As soon as I took a look, I saw that this man's throat had been cut a very deep hole, and only a little flesh was left on his whole head, and his neck was covered with red blood, and under the white light of the flashlight, the face was glaring at me viciously, and his eyes were very resentful.
