Chapter 95: The discovery of the worm
Three days later, the Moles were in the Excavation Camp near Yellowsand.
Turtledove was lying on the sand basking in the sun, he had been used to this kind of sunbathing for the past two days, and basically had to bask in the scorching sun for a period of time every day, of course, provided that he applied enough sunscreen, otherwise even if his skin was tougher than ordinary people, it would not be able to withstand the high temperature and sun for a long time.
Speaking of sunscreen, the Mole Gang dug up a lot from under the sand nearby, but most of them had passed their expiration dates, after all, there was no sunscreen in the world with a shelf life of more than 100 years, but it can't be said too absolutely, there was still a little bit of it that hadn't deteriorated, at least it didn't look wrong on the outside.
Bug was reluctant to use this kind of sunscreen, which was likely to have only a psychological effect, and instead of risking a tan, she would rather stay in the tent honestly and take care of Somer, who had only regained consciousness two days earlier.
Thanks to God, Somer didn't die after being shot by the old mayor, and after being sent back to the excavation site, the Mole Gang doctor immediately operated on him, but fortunately, Somer's physique was relatively good, and there happened to be a member of the Mole Gang with the same blood type as him to supply him with blood, which pulled Somo back from the ghost gate.
In this regard, the happiest is naturally Rango.
Rango is now by Somer's side day and night, and the people in the Mole Gang know about the relationship between the two of them, so it won't be uneasy to have Rango by their side to watch over them.
Despite the estrangement between the two brothers, in the case of life and death, Summer was able to push Rango away and use his body to take the old mayor's bullet.
The instinct of living beings is to seek advantage and avoid harm, and the choice made by Summer's life and death in that moment represents the truest thought in his heart, that is, no matter what, he treats Rango as a brother, even if he still blames Rango, if it weren't for his reckless impulsiveness and overflowing sympathy, "Daddy" would not have died.
Just like the "Crusade against the Mole Gang" formed by the Mole Gang and the residents of nearby towns, the estrangement between the two brothers, Rango and Somer, has also been slightly eliminated by the previous "farce", although Summerer is still in a comatose state, but the doctor said that he will wake up soon.
So overall, the current situation is not bad.
……
As for the Huangsha Town, the old mayor who had exhausted the calculations and finally failed was not as lucky as Somer, who had broken a whole arm, because he was too old and weak, and no one was willing to give him a blood transfusion, so he didn't even survive that night.
Fortunately, the residents of Huangsha Town still had a heart and buried him in a public cemetery outside the town, and finally did not let him be exposed to the wilderness.
The two brothers, Merry and Bill, as well as the gang of doglegs who had followed them, were also driven out of Yellowsands after the old mayor's downfall, and the residents of Yellowsands are now working on electing the next mayor, and unexpectedly, Rango's voice is quite high.
Even Rango himself didn't expect this, when the resident representative of Huangsha Town came to the excavation site to show him his intentions, Rango was stunned, but he himself was not too resistant to becoming the mayor of Huangsha Town, but he wanted to wait for Somer to wake up first, because he still had a lot to say to Somer in person.
Anyway, the matter was settled, and as the future mayor of Huangsha Town, Rango had to take on the task of taking representatives of other townspeople to visit the water intake point.
A few days ago, Summer's promise of a water intake and a vast "underground water network" would be open to the public gave the residents of the neighborhood a hopeful future where they would no longer have to worry about clean water.
Therefore, everyone wants to settle this matter as soon as possible, and the Summerman is not awake yet, as his younger brother, and the other son of the "Daddy" recognized by everyone in the Mole Gang, only Rango has this qualification.
So early this morning, Rango led the representatives of the residents from all over the world to visit the water intake point buried deep underground, and in order to see the freshness, the little worm also followed, leaving the turtledove here alone to bask in the sun.
……
Dressed in big trousers, wearing a pair of sunglasses, with a large glass of sweet and clear groundwater at hand, and covered in almost useless sunscreen, Ikaruga lay very comfortably on a small mound outside the excavation site, as if the whole world had nothing to do with him.
Comfortable, really comfortable.
Turtledove didn't even remember the last time he had been so happy, he knew that if he left here in two days, there would be endless hardships waiting for him, so it was better to hurry up and enjoy the peace of the moment.
"Ahh
After pouring half a glass of water, the turtledove, who got up slightly, suddenly had no heart to continue basking in the sun, he took off the sunglasses stuck on the bridge of his nose, and saw the small insect walking towards him.
Needless to say, just by looking at the look on the insect's face, Turtledove knew that she definitely didn't come to her to bask in the sun with her.
"What's wrong?" The turtledove simply sat up and looked up at the little insect standing in front of him, "Why do you have a serious face, didn't you say that you would leave in two days, I haven't rested yet!" ”
Squatting down, the little insect first gave the turtledove an expression of "you must not guess what I just found", and by the way, he picked up the water cup and drank it to the sky, and then said to the turtledove:
"You'll never guess what I just discovered."
"What did you find?"
The turtledove asked curiously, he said to himself that the worm hadn't been anywhere since the morning, didn't he just visit the water point dug by the Mole Gang with the group, and what could be surprising about that place.
"You'll find out with me."
The little insect didn't explain the words directly to the turtledove, she dragged the turtledove's arm and dragged it up from the ground, not taking two steps away, the turtledove remembered that she hadn't taken the cup yet, turned around and took the empty cup in her hand, the turtledove looked down at the sunscreen on her body, and whispered:
"Wasted so much of my time."
……
The worm did make a surprising discovery at the water point, and she eagerly led the turtle dove to the middle of the excavation site, which was the entrance to the water point.
Like the underground reservoir outside Huangsha Town, the entrance to the water intake point is also a cement passage that slopes downward, and the turtledove followed the worm to the edge of the entrance in confusion, and the worm pointed to the solid cement wall on one side of the passage and said:
"Look what this is."
"It's ......"
The turtledove stepped forward, and saw a mark embedded in the wall, which he seemed to have seen somewhere, a tightly clenched black fist.
