Han Qingxin was shocked when he thought of the corpse of the soldier he found earlier, and asked, "We found a soldier's corpse along the way, wearing your protective clothing, it should be your person, how did he die?" ”

Everyone immediately understood the meaning of her words, and wondered if there was also information such as the soldier's birth and death years in the mud, so he died mysteriously.

Strathman looked a little confused and said in a depressed mood: "Last night he stepped on something under his feet, anyway, he punctured a hole in the soles of his feet, and he had a high fever that night, and he couldn't breathe this morning, so we threw him into the mud and let him sink himself, which is considered to be a burial for him." Why, have you seen his body? ”

An ominous atmosphere quieted them down as a group, and Shichima was reminiscing about the feeling of seven years ago, and the first time he saw the bronze giant tree, he was as uneasy as he is now, the kind of shiver like an electric shock. The mystical forces of nature were so powerful that they couldn't breathe, and this time the premonition came from beneath the mud.

The bronze cone beneath the quagmire is most likely part of a bronze building that covers a large area. Everyone's faces were unusually pale, and no one knew who would die for no reason if they continued to move forward.

However, the sand buried the ancient city, and the goal they were striving to chase was close at hand.

The fat man's suggestion to dig out the bronze cone in the silt was rejected by Han Qingxin, it is like a part of the overall building or a handicraft, it is only a small part, and it will be bottomed out if you continue to dig down along the bronze cone.

"Looks like we're going to have to take a stretcher." Zhu Beichen looked at Strassman and teased, his previous impulsive anger was swept away, and he would not abandon an injured person.

"Use mine, I can go myself." Shichima tapped his improvised crutches, he had never compromised in his life, and he was even more reluctant to spend time on a stretcher.

Yang Xi and the fat man continued to take on the heavy responsibility of carrying the wounded and sick, but they changed objects. The fat man grinned dryly and lifted Strassmann onto the stretcher.

A group of explorers with the same goal continued to walk through the swamp forest, close to the final goal, everything seemed to be within reach, but they had to beware of the potential dangers that could lie beneath their feet.

After walking for two hours, it was pitch black all around, and no environment could be seen, a hole was worn out in the sole of Ning Yun's shoes, and a heat wave hit the ground.

Yes! She was touched to the ground, and the hot and humid mud exuded high heat, and as the temperature continued to rise, everyone quickly felt the power of this heat wave.

The silt swamp still has moisture, but it has become as high as 50 degrees. Han Qingxin observed the surrounding environment with the light of his mobile phone, although the brightness had changed significantly, it was still the background of the swamp forest, and he should go out even if he dragged the wounded for two hours.

"It seems to be spinning in place." Han Qingxin said.

"Please, girl, don't scare us, okay." The fat man and Yang Xi found a piece of dry ground and put the stretcher down, so tired that they were out of breath.

On the stretcher, Strassmann was completely unconscious, confused, and breathing faintly from his nose and mouth.

A red plant root dangling from a high altitude swayed around Strathman's nostrils, swaying with his faint snort.

The people around him didn't notice this phenomenon at all, and Ning Yun planted a heel to attract everyone's attention. She was about to wave her hand to signal that everyone was okay, but when she was about to stand up, she was surprised to find that her body was sinking irrepressibly into the mud. In a hurry, Ning Yun kept struggling, but the more panicked he struggled, the faster his body sank.

Before everyone could react for a while, they looked at each other, and the fat man suddenly came to his senses and shouted: "The quagmire is trapped, she has fallen into the swamp." ”

"Don't struggle, stop and don't move, the more you struggle, the faster you will sink." Han Qingxin has rich experience in surviving in the wild, and falling into the swamp to flutter and struggle has no effect, but rather accelerates the process of death.

Zhu Beichen's heart rose to his throat, and he was frightened by the sudden situation and broke out in a cold sweat for a lifetime, the speed at which Ning Yun sank was accelerating, and only half a minute had passed since she was first discovered, and her calves had all been buried in the mud.

The swamp lit by the faint light of your mobile phone is full of traps, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the pit of the swamp.

"Ning Yun ......" July panicked, and stretched out his hand to grab it.

"Don't move." Qijian calmly analyzed the current situation, and ordered Yang Xi and the fat man, one of them took the arm of the other, and the three of them knotted a human rope and slowly approached the condensation clouds in the swamp little by little.

It was still a little closer, only fifty centimeters away from Ning Yun, and Qi Jian didn't dare to be careless, and reached out the branch crutch in his hand towards Ning Yun, talking while probing to calm Ning Yun's emotions.

"Take your time, hold on to the branches, and don't push too hard, or you'll pull us down." Shichima said.

The branch reached Ningyun, and she grabbed the branch tightly with both hands according to Qima's instructions, her eyes were full of fear, sadness and helplessness, and her heart was beating fast.

"It's okay, pull back. Pull us up. ”

Han Qingxin and Zhu Bei held Yang Xi's body at the end of his head and pulled hard.

It's so heavy, the huge power seems to come from the condensation cloud trapped in the mud, and under the joint rescue of several people, the body that condensed to the chest finally slowly broke away from the shackles of the swamp and silt.

"I can't hold it, it's so heavy." Zhu Beichen felt that his arms were about to lose their strength.

"I'll count one, two, three, and drag them up together." Han Qingxin said.

"One, two......"

Han Qingxin suddenly exerted his strength, stepped out of a deep pit in the mud under his feet, and his body was like a humanoid lever, pulling several people to safety at once.

Zhu Beichen was not paying attention for a while, and he was also led and fell backwards, and plunged his head into the sludge full of sewage. wiped the dirt on his face and cursed: "What about the good one, two, three, why are you only twice, you cheat me?" ”

After a lot of tossing, they sat on the ground tired, and for the sake of safety and for a better rest, Shichima decided to let everyone rest in place for a while. I believe that Wu Min's walking speed will not be too fast, only half a day's walk longer than himself, and such a swamp forest is so mysterious, most of them are still circling in the swamp.

"Everyone's okay." Zhu Beichen asked.

In addition to Strathman, who was lying on the stretcher, opened his eyelids and rolled his eyes with difficulty, Zhu Beichen chattered: I know that there is something wrong with your old man.

The fat man raised his hand: "Hungry and panicked doesn't count, the physical exertion in the past few hours is too great." ”

Zhu Beichen said: "Get out of yours." ”

July looked at Ning Yun and asked, "Ning Yun, what's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly?" "My heart chuckled, it's over.

Ning Yun was stunned for a moment, and looked at the expression on Qiyue's face that suddenly froze, and his mood instantly fell and said seriously: "Girl, the soles of my feet seem to be... It looks like I've stepped on something. ”

The filthy mud covered Ning Yun's white muscles, and after listening to Ning Yun's hesitant words, they all connected with the dead soldier in their hearts.

Strassmann said that he stepped on something he didn't know, and then he had a high fever overnight, and the next day he was out of breath.

July gasped, his eyes suddenly moistened, and he clearly heard Ning Yun's statement: I stepped on something on the sole of my foot.

Han Qingxin hurriedly checked Ning Yun's injuries, took off her torn shoes, and found a sharp metal needle the thickness of a needle on the sole of her petite foot, and the surface of the needle body was stained with rust.

Bronze!

The worst happens!

This material is all too familiar to Han Qingxin. This needle happened to be pierced on the Yongquan acupoint, and if you don't look carefully, you can hardly find it at all, and blood is oozing around the needle, and the amount of bleeding is not large. Han Qingxin didn't dare to take the needle out of the way, so he didn't know how deep the needle was pierced, and only a small part of it was outside the skin.

Judging from Ning Yun's expression, the pain was not strong, and Han Qingxin asked, "Does it hurt?" ”

Ning Yun replied: "It's the same as a mosquito bite, I don't feel much." It's just a little insensitive. ”

They didn't expect that they would only enter the swamp forest one day later than Jiang Erye and Wu Min's team, but they would encounter potential danger so quickly, and what made July even more unexpected was that Ning Yun was the first person to encounter an abnormal situation.

"If I don't pull it out, there is a risk of infection and suppuration, and I need to confirm whether the needle is poisonous." Han Qingxin got a medical kit from Wu Min's dead soldier, and it was still possible to identify and analyze toxins and treat them simply.

"Will there be a problem pulling it out?" Zhu Beichen remembered that some needles were designed with barbs, and forcibly pulling them out would cause trouble.

"I'll come." July said.

"Would you use a scalpel? That box for you. Han Qingxin glanced at Qiyue angrily, and had to admit that at least she was always inferior to her in terms of appearance, if she could even replace her own expertise, wouldn't she be angry.

"No, I'll use this." July untied the package on his back, and inside was a complete set of Gu Instruments, which were more precise and sharper than any kind of surgical knife division in the world today.

When the package was untied, the cold utensils dazzling with golden light and silver light suddenly made Han Qingxin's eyes shine, and all kinds of knives and needles of different shapes really opened her eyes.

Although she didn't know the purpose of each of the instruments, the shock filled her heart, and her intuition told her that this surgical instrument was absolutely the most advanced in the world today: how could there be such a strange surgical instrument in July, and how did this instrument be used?

"Ning Yun, bear with it. To be safe, I'm going to cut through the skin around you and get the needle out. ”

"I don't want anything to happen to you." While disinfecting the utensils, July pressed Ningyun with one hand to soothe.

Ning Yun listened to July's words, sobbing and nodding softly. Thinking of the relationship between July and his master and servant for many years, he couldn't help but have wet eyes, and July's gestures were full of the gentleness of an elderly mother, which moved Ning Yun.
