After a night of fierce fighting, the team finally escaped the woods infested with white python nematodes and found themselves in an endless peat bog.

I slumped in the peat bog, mud-covered and looking up at the sky. Although there was only a thick fog above, a gray patch, I could see a strong light through the fog, and I knew that it was already noon.

I stayed awake all night, and I kept fighting with my nerves, and then I struggled forward in the difficult quagmire for half a day, and now I was so weak that I wanted to lie down in the mud and sleep.

I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyelids, and somebody came to me, handed me the kettle, and took it without raising my head, but with my hands covered in mud. As a result, I couldn't even drink a sip of water, so I hung my head and fell asleep. When I woke up, I found that many of my teammates were in a large font, sleeping in the dirty mire unscrupulously.

I opened my sleepy eyes and asked Zha Ling'er, who was sitting next to me, "How long have I been asleep?" ”

Zha Linger shoved a biscuit into my mouth and replied, "An hour." ”

I made a rough mental estimate that it should be about half past two in the afternoon, not far from dusk, and that I had to leave the peat bog before it was dark. Otherwise, the people who are extremely tired will have to sleep in the mire tonight, and when they get up tomorrow, they will all be turned into stone statues.

The crowd, exhausted, had to get up. One by one, the clay figures who could no longer see their facial features clearly, in a thick fog, continued to fight the quagmire with difficulty.

It was getting dark. I found that the fog had not cleared at all, so I asked Guide You for advice. Why hasn't the fog cleared yet?

You guide a tired look at my questions. Only two words were answered, that is, "it's okay".

I'm still very worried, and I think that the fog that never goes away is a little strange. But now, I can't do anything other than worry.

The exhausted procession, marching through the peat bogs into the late night, still did not see the end of the quagmire. Once again, the team had to rest in a dirty quagmire.

I didn't eat a drop of water this day, and I found that the fat man could actually hold something with his hands full of mud, and I had to admire his stomach, which really could even digest stones. I also found that my body was getting bigger, and although I was stuck, if there was danger now, I would definitely be able to fight energetically.

And after resting in the mud for a while, they gathered around me. Ask if you want to move forward. My idea, of course, was to keep going, the mist-shrouded peat bogs, full of dangerous information, and the team must not spend the night in this empty quagmire. Everyone was very reluctant. But I had to get up again and continue to tug of war with the quagmire.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the team members still seemed to be fighting endlessly with the difficult quagmire.

I carry my shoes in both hands. Stopped in the quagmire and motioned for the team to stop moving forward.

The fat man panted and walked up to me. Asked me, "Lao Zheng, are you ready to rest?" ”

I shook my head. Called Guide You to the front, pointed to the fog that had become thick and even gray and yellowish in front of him, and said, "Brother, look at the fog in front of you, is there anything wrong?" ”

The guide came to my approach, and when he stood still, he looked at the strangely colored mist ahead. After looking at it for a moment, he closed his eyes, his nose twitched, and he began to sniff the air around him.

It is a muddy swamp of decay, and sometimes bubbles will bubble up, which is called "biogas". The biogas is flammable and toxic, and has the smell of rotten eggs, which is similar to the sulfur smell I smelled in the Kunlun Mountain cave. I saw the way You Gui raised his nose and smelled the smell, and I thought that there should be a rotten swamp with swamp gas ahead.

But a breeze blew, and I smelled a pungent smell of filth, mixed with a faint smell of rotten eggs, not the smell of rotten eggs from swamp.

The color of the fog had become very strange, and the air was a little filthy, so I immediately alerted everyone to stay where they were and not to rush forward.

When the fat man saw my panicked expression, he immediately asked me, "What's wrong?" ”

I looked at the gray-yellow fog ahead and said, "There's something strange ahead, we're going to take a detour." ”

Everyone walked towards me with some worry, and the fat man said worriedly, "Is the detour north or south?" ”

I was about to answer, when suddenly a strong wind blew in front of me, blowing the gray-yellow fog not far in front of us directly.

A thick fog suddenly spread around the group, and all in front of and behind me were shrouded in gray-yellow mist, causing everyone to disappear from my sight at once.

I opened my mouth wide and was about to answer the fat man's question, but I choked on the filthy mist and coughed violently, and the more I coughed, I couldn't help bending over, and I couldn't help but snot and tears flowed a lot, and when I finally stopped coughing. Finding that the surroundings had become silent, and the fog was so thick that he couldn't see his fingers, he immediately rushed to the uneasy, and was very worried about the safety of his teammates. The heart says: Don't panic, don't forget to be in a dangerous swamp.

I remember that Zha Ling'er was standing on my left, worried that she would run in a panic, so I hurriedly took a few steps to the left, but I didn't expect to really see Zha Ling'er standing in place, with a panicked look, just not knowing what to do.

I hurriedly grabbed her hand and pulled her close to me, and she immediately shouted happily, "Brother Sven", and grabbed my arm and clinged to my body.

I looked around, but I didn't see the shadows of other teammates, so I had to shout loudly, "Fat man, smoke man, You guide, I heard a reply, I'm here, everyone is moving closer here." ”

As a result, Zha Ling'er and I stood where we were and waited for a long time, but we didn't hear a reply, and no one came to us. Although I did not give up shouting the names of the people repeatedly, there was nothing around me but a thick fog of filth. And after I shouted a few times, I coughed violently again, and Zha Ling'er was worried and didn't let me shout again. When I saw the blood on my palms, I immediately understood one thing, that is, the mist was poisonous. To be precise: the gray and yellowish mist in front of you, which is as thick as sticky phlegm, is actually a "poisonous miasma".

Miasma is a toxic gas produced by the heat and humidity of decaying animal and plant carcasses in the sweltering woods. According to the seasonal nature, snakes, insects, birds, plants and flowers, divided into different species.

Although I don't know what kind of miasma it is, I know very well that the invisible miasma is like a fishy wind, with a strange fragrance, although it does not kill people immediately, but it is also deeply poisoned, and it can hurt the lungs at least and poisonous sores all over the body. Now the invisible miasma has become tangible, like a mist of Caixia, around me, and in the next moment, I may die of poison.

I knew how to restrain the miasma, so I immediately took out a thin scroll of sheepskin from my bosom, opened it in my hand, took out a silver needle, and told Zha Ling'er to close her eyes.

When Zha Ling'er saw the thin silver needle, her little face wrinkled and asked me, "Brother Sven, what are you going to do?" ”

I pinched the silver with my fingers and explained to Zha Ling'er, "We have been poisoned by miasma and must be cured immediately. Now while the poisoning is relatively light, two can save my life, if the poison is deep, I will be completely helpless. ”

After hearing this, Zha Ling'er immediately closed her eyes obediently, and I quickly stabbed Zha Linger's upper and lower lips with a silver needle, but I couldn't help frowning when I saw Zha Linger's pain in pain.

Since I saw Tianyu detoxifying with silver needles in Kunlun Mountain, I was interested, and when I returned to the capital, I immediately studied hard and learned various methods of silver needle detoxification. Because the silver needle is easy to carry and has a variety of practical uses, if it can be used well, it can become an indispensable tool in the inverted bucket. At the beginning, I worked hard to study, but now it really comes in handy.

After I healed myself, I put away the silver needle, put it in my arms, and then took out two simple white masks from my backpack and put them on my and my mouths. But I was still a little uneasy, so I tore a piece of cotton underwear in half and put it around my and Zha Ling'er's faces respectively, which made me feel a lot more relieved.

In the dense fog full of poisonous miasma, I thought for a while, and then pulled Zha Ling'er and walked sideways in the direction of southwest. Because Guide You insisted on heading south before, he should also move southwest. The other teammates should not be left alone, and they may all be like me and Zha Ling'er, walking together. It can be inferred that most of the people will be heading southwest. As soon as you leave this miasma swamp quagmire, no matter which direction you choose, you will end up on a route to the west, because there is only one way to the end.

The muddy swamp quagmire is still extremely difficult to navigate. Zha Ling'er and I were covered in sweat, and after walking less than half a mile, I saw that Zha Ling'er's forehead was covered with sweat, and she was panting as if she couldn't lift her feet, so I stopped and asked her to rest for a while, and then continue to move forward.

I saw that Zha Ling'er's face was not only tired, but also full of worry. She was worried about the safety of her uncle and the rest of the team, and I was also full of worry at this time, wondering if the others were aware of the presence of the miasma.

After the rest was over, I continued to walk in the knee-high quagmire in the southwest direction, and there was still a gray-yellow thick fog in front of me, as if there was no end.

Suddenly, I heard a noise in the direction of the left in front of me, so I immediately stopped in my tracks and listened carefully. It seemed to be the voice of someone talking, vaguely as if shouting: "This way, this way." (To be continued......)
