Chapter Eight: Night into the Lonely Mountain Village (Part II) (Revised Version)
Kang Yan got closer and closer, her appearance was very strange, her expression was a little distorted, as if she was in pain, because of the supernatural incident that happened just now, coupled with the inexplicable sound of the walkie-talkie, my heart was a little hairy, and now for me, anything that is abnormal must be vigilant.
I aimed at the medicine box in her hand and fired a shot, but unexpectedly, Kang Yan turned around very beautifully, not only dodged my shot, but took a few steps to a place not far in front of me, and scolded: "You kid is sick, there is no distinction between friend and foe, right?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, holding the gun and taking a few steps back, as soon as I moved, a few guys behind me also moved back, Kang Yan put the medicine box on the ground, leaned on a big stone and took off her shoes and socks, and then looked at me and said, "Stunned to eat, I can't come to help." ”
I hesitated and tentatively asked her, "Who are you?" ”
Kang Yan looked at me impatiently and said, "Pretend to be stupid, isn't it?" Don't be verbose, help me get it out. ”
I approached her cautiously, and then shone a flashlight on her feet, which were slender and fair, and there was nothing unusual on the surface.
Kang Yan took out a surgical scalpel and a pair of hemostats from the toolbox, as well as some gauze, and when she saw that I was still standing still, she was immediately a little angry, and scolded in a low voice: "Jiang Yuan, this bastard boy let me follow you safer, safe fart, useless!" ”
I smiled and said, "I'm useless, cowardly, natural, I can't help it." ”
Kang Yan probably felt that her words were too aggressive just now, but she glanced at me at this time, and said to me in a soothing tone: "Don't be stunned, help quickly, you will carry me up the mountain when it is late." ”
I picked up the socks she threw over, and said in my heart, "The bad habit of socks can only be done by those unruly and willful women, and female ghosts are not allowed to do it."
Quickly put the gun down, jumped in front of her in a few steps, and said, "I'm sorry, I just had some accidents, someone"
"Is someone pretending to be me?" Kang Yan glared at me, "I just knew that someone was pretending to be me, so I caught up from behind non-stop, and stepped on a puddle on the way, I didn't know what was in the water and got into the heart of my foot, my foot has been hurting, and my calf is sore, it seems to be poisoned." ”
I lifted her foot and examined it closely, and everything was fine except for a dark spot the size of a bottle cap on the center of her foot.
"Did you bring a surgical light?" I looked up and asked her.
Kang Yan looked at me in surprise and said, "What surgical light?" ”
"It's the little lamp that the dentist wears on the door of his head when he pulls a tooth."
"That's called an intraoral light."
“”
I poked it with a cotton swab, and it was soft like an earthworm ball formed by earthworms, which made people's scalp tingle.
Kang Yan saw that my face was not very good, holding the miner's lamp to see what was wrong with the soles of her feet, I was worried that she would be frightened after seeing it, so I hurriedly blocked it with my hand and took away the miner's lamp, saying, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's just a cut, it's a little infected." ”
Kang Yan is a doctor, so she naturally knows what the clinical reaction to the infection is, so even if I said it, she still had some suspicions, but I took the miner's lamp aside, and she had no other lighting tools, so she had to give up.
I beckoned two guys to come over and ask them to help me find some firewood, and then boil a pot of boiling water and get it ready.
I was holding a scalpel and scissors, and there was a pot of boiling water and a campfire next to me, and there was a woman sitting across from me, and the image looked like she was delivering a pregnant woman.
I asked a guy to sit next to Kang Yan and was ready to hold her at any time, so that she would not disturb my "surgery". After hearing my words, the guy immediately turned blue with fright, looked at Kang Yan tremblingly, then bowed deeply, and ran back to the team to rest.
I was shocked by this scene and asked her, "Dr. Kang, what is he running for?" ”
Kang Yan smiled playfully and said, "I'm afraid of my husband." ”
"Huh?"
"Okay, I'm not that squeamish, you can get started."
“”
I took out a silver needle and burned it on the fire, which was considered sterilization, and put her foot on a large stone with a strong flashlight in my mouth, and then gently picked up a "hair strand" with the silver needle, and finally grabbed its tail with tweezers and pulled it hard, and an unknown creature more than ten centimeters long dragged it out for me, it was still alive, and its body quickly curled up together, tightly wrapped around this silver needle, I put it in a petri dish, which was the container that Kang Yan carried with him for collecting samples.
The whole "surgery" lasted for more than an hour, and in this process, every time I pulled out a "strand of hair", Kang Yan bit herself in pain, and when I cleaned up everything, none of her ten fingers were good.
The dark spots on the soles of my feet have been cleaned up, and they are as white as a sieve, all with thin holes, and I feel uncomfortable when I see it, not to mention that she is still a woman.
Because the wound showed no signs of bleeding, I only applied anti-inflammatory drugs according to Kang Yan's instructions, but just in case, I suggested that she get a tetanus injection and another injection of serum, because I felt that this thing should be poisonous, and judging from Kang Yan's symptoms, snake venom is very likely.
After the wound was dressed, I showed her the contents of the petri dish, and I thought she would scream in fright or faint directly, but I never expected that this was a female man. When she saw the black thing, not only did she not have any exclamations or other overreactions, but calmly opened the lid to take a closer look, and about a few minutes later, Kang Yan brought the petri dish to me and said, "Find a place to burn it." ”
I wanted to throw this thing into the bonfire, but at this time, the grasshopper came back, followed by Jiang Yuan and Li Laosi.
"What's going on?" Jiang Yuan saw that Kang Yan's feet were wrapped with gauze, and asked her with concern, "Why is it injured?" ”
Kang Yan pointed to the petri dish in my hand and said, "Go and take a look, what Old Man Zhang said is right, people in this place can't come." ”
Jiang Yuan took the petri dish from my hand and said lightly: "Dilongzi." ”
I couldn't hear clearly, so I asked him, "What kind of dragon?"
Jiang Yuan threw the petri dish into the fire with great precision, and in less than ten seconds, he saw that the original red flame instantly turned blue, and it was a very positive blue, Jiang Yuan said that he had seen this kind of thing in the deep mountains and old forests in Sichuan ten years ago, they lived underground, and lived by sucking the blood of cave creatures, containing trace amounts of toxins, which would not be fatal.
I was a little relieved after hearing this, and now I don't care how disgusting or strange it is, no matter what I encounter, it's okay if it's not fatal.
Kang Yan limped over and said, "This thing should live in a very deep place underground, and I just stepped on a puddle of water all the way up the mountain, and the water of the puddle is very shallow, so it can be inferred that this thing has appeared on the ground." ”
Jiang Yuan continued following her words: "In other words, the environment in which the Earth Dragons live has been destroyed, and they are forced to come to the ground. ”
I also seemed to understand a little and said, "In other words, the puddle is not something that existed before, it is probably recent, and there is something else under the puddle." ”
Jiang Yuan and Kang Yan nodded in agreement, and at this time, the grasshopper and Li Laosi came back from the puddle at the bottom of the mountain, according to the photos they took, this puddle was about the size of a washbasin, and the test depth was seventeen centimeters, and the central part was captured by the underwater high-powered camera, and we saw some cavities, as if we were seen on the shallows of the seaside, and there were bubbles coming out of the holes from time to time.
The grasshopper handed me a test tube containing some mud they had brought from the bottom of the pit, and after a simple test by Kang Yan, we found that the mud contained trace amounts of mercury, and there was no mercury storage in the Mengshan area.
Jiang Yuan handed me the camera, and then instructed Li Laosi, saying, "You go up and tell all the people in the first team to come down, from now on, the first team and the third team will be combined, the fourth team will follow the second team behind, and we will go to the village in front." ”
I wanted to ask him why he had made such a decision, but before he could say anything, he was pulled aside by the grasshopper and whispered: "When I came down just now, Boss Jiang and the fourth master said that the village in front of me is likely to be the village of the tomb keeper, and there is an ancient tomb underground. ”
As soon as I heard this, I immediately came to my senses and asked him, "Is it the general's tomb?" ”
The gnats shook their heads and said, "I don't know, but Boss Jiang looks very happy, it seems that it shouldn't be bad." ”
Actually, I have some answers in my own heart, this is already the boundary of the second and third layers of Mengshan, according to the information we got before, the tomb of General Qin, known as the Golden Scale Star Palace, is in this place. Looking at the village in front of me, I silently calculated the distance in my heart.
It's about a few kilometers from here to the village, and as the saying goes, look at the mountains and walk to tire the dogs. This village seems to be close at hand, but this mountain road is rugged and spirals up, and it is not close when straightened.
