Chapter 27: Living Roots
Serious matter, the two walked quickly to the edge of the waterhole, Wang Biansai said that the leaves of the red plant here were full of spikes, and he stretched out his hand to show Sun Yan, and the palms of his two hands were full of small red dots that had been pierced.
Sun Yan put on plastic gloves, pulled a few times and found that the roots of this 'ground red plant' were still very deep, how to pull it out can not be pulled, the two people took turns to try a few times and failed, but Sun Yan had to take out a folding shovel and began to dig, the digging process was careful, try to avoid the roots, but I didn't expect that this root seemed to be not much bigger than the leaf itself, and I didn't see it after digging for a long time, so I had no choice but to dig a lump of soil and put the plants in a bag and bring it back, and the two hurriedly dug a few plants and rushed back.
In between, there was no sound in the tent, I don't know if Na Sha'an is still staying inside, and I don't know if the woman is out of breath, these Sun Yan have no intention of caring about it, but he is eager to return to the camp, and he can't wait to fly back immediately.
After getting into the car, Sun Yan inadvertently glanced at the hill just now, and found that there was a strange human figure shaking on the top of the hill, the speed was very fast, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye, Sun Yan was stunned for a while, and he didn't see the figure again until the car started. What is it? Sun Yan muttered in his mouth, thought for a while, and suddenly a bad thought popped up in his mind, he shook his head, and said in his heart that it was impossible, so he stopped thinking about it.
In the car, Sun Yan took out a red plant and tried to shake off the soil on it, revealing the roots. Unexpectedly, after shaking halfway, I found that some long white whiskers wriggled out of the soil, which were very thin, and the color was a little translucent. Sun Yan didn't expect it to be like this, thinking it was a bug, his scalp tightened, and goosebumps all over his body were aroused, you must know that he hates this kind of bug the most.
But when the soil fell little by little, I found that it was not, these long white whiskers turned out to be the roots of the red plants in this place! There was a large mass entangled, densely packed, bright white throughout, the color was quite beautiful, but the form was too disgusting.
Sun Yan took this thing and gagged twice, Wang Biansai glanced over here in the car, couldn't help but be shocked, and shouted, "Damn!" What the hell is this?! Can this cure the disease? ”
Sun Yan had cold sweat on his face, and said with a wry smile: "At least this 'living ginseng' statement is true."
Saying that, he shook his head, and said, "I didn't expect this to be really alive, what I saw before was just a preserved strip of roots, the color is not so bright, and it won't move." And this thing seems to have a temperature, I can feel it with gloves, ice. ”
Wang Biansai took a sip and said, "Your uncle! I said you're not mistaken! Can this big lump of and the same thing cure diseases, you see that you have said different things before and after, how can you be sure that this is a thing?! I think it's a nest of bugs! ”
Sun Yan was unhappy, and scolded: "You fucking don't bother here, how did I know it would be like this?!" I can't manage it so much now, if it doesn't work, I have to go back and try it first, and now I can only ask the emperor for his blessing! ”
Wang Biansai squeezed his brows and said, "Go back and let the surnamed Xiao try first." ”
Sun Yan pouted: "Eh, you're still at odds with him, what's wrong?" ”
Wang Biansai glanced at him, snorted disdainfully, and stopped talking.
At 3:45 p.m., the two finally returned to camp. This time, when I heard the roar of the car, no one came out to greet me, and no one was in a hurry to ask if I could find it. The two men hurriedly got out of the car, approached the barracks, opened the door, and saw that the four men were still lying in their sleeping bags, as if they had not moved their nests since they left in the morning, and had not even eaten. The sun was shining outside, but inside the room was gloomy and silent because of the curtains.
Wang Biansai's face turned blue with fright, and he shouted, "They can't be dead, right?!" ”
This is the situation that Sun Yan fears the most, because a high fever can kill them at any time, let alone this rare and terrible virus. So the moment he pushed the door open, his heart sank when he saw this scene. However, when I got closer to confirm, I found that all four of them were angry, but they were just unconscious.
Sun Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, I'm not dead." As he spoke, he hurriedly took off the equipment bag and everything from his body, squatted down, untied the bag containing the red plants, and said to Wang Biansai behind him: "You bring the pot where we cook noodles!" ”
As soon as Sun Yan took out the disgusting thing like a worm, Wang Biansai's eyebrows twisted together, and he lowered his head depressedly and turned around in place a few times before he opened his mouth and said: "Why don't we go out and find it again, just this thing, who dares to swallow it, if you want me to say that you must have remembered it wrong."
Sun Yan didn't raise his head and said: "Don't be in this Luoli, it's important to save people, go and get that pot, rub it with sand, and brush it clean." ”
Seeing that there was no negotiation, Wang Biansai had no choice but to turn his head and get the pot. When the pot was brought, the two of them got all the live roots of a few red plants into the pot, like a big pot of bright white wriggling noodles, which was really disgusting.
Wang Bian bared his teeth and asked Sun Yan, "Then what?" What to do again? You can't let them eat it like noodles, right? ”
Sun Yan sighed and said, "Mash it, it's better to swallow some." ”
It was impossible to take the garlic mortar to explore Lop Nur, so the two had to replace it with all kinds of tools that could be used, and finally directly grabbed and pinched it with their hands, and after tinkering for a long time, a pot of bubbling cold 'gnocchi' was ready.
Wang Biansai's hand was sore, and as soon as he sat on the ground, he said, "I think that's it, this living one may be better than the crushed one, let's pour it on them first." ”
Sun Yan nodded and said, "It's rare that the two of us agree, I thought the same thing when I got it halfway just now, come, without further ado." ”
The two of them hurriedly got up and helped Qi Dongrui up, took care of him three seven twenty-one, filled a bowl and poured it for him first. Unexpectedly, not long after swallowing the thing, Qi Dongrui spit it all out. At this vomit, Wang Biansai was frightened, moved his body back, and said in a trembling voice: "This doesn't seem to be quite right." ”
Sun Yan sighed and said in a deep voice, "Come again." So he poured it down one by one, and after Qi Dongrui vomited three or four times, he finally stopped vomiting, and he could drink more than half a bowl.
Sister Zu was the last to drink, and when she was helped up, she suddenly woke up, and when she saw the stall in the bowl, she immediately frowned, and cried out, "What is this?!" I don't drink! ”
She struggled so badly, like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old child, Wang Biansai and Sun Yan couldn't hold her down. Helplessly, Wang Biansai pushed Sun Yan away and said, "You go to the side, I'll persuade her!" ”
Sun Yan stood up depressedly, walked to the side, and listened to Wang Biansai and coax the child to talk about it, but this grandmother just didn't drink, and it was strange to say, this mother-in-law was sick and didn't even have the strength to speak before, and then it was time to toss around, is this the so-called return to the light?
After waiting for a few minutes, Sun Yan was a little impatient, and was just about to go over and forcibly pour it into her, but as soon as he turned around, he saw Qi Dongrui suddenly bounce up from his sleeping bag and vomit a mouthful of black blood.
Sun Yan was suddenly frightened, and shouted in a lost voice: "Oh my God! ”
