I nodded, but still shook my head with a pretended relief, "It's okay! ”

"Look at the buddy who avenges you!" Saying that, Lantern Xiao stepped on the strange fish, stabbed it down, and kept the knife deep into the ground. The strange fish writhed, but it couldn't break free at all, and gradually stopped moving.

At this time, Lantern Xiao suddenly looked at me, "Hey! You'll be fine if you're bitten, this thing is poisonous or not! ”

Lantern Xiao's words suddenly reached my heart, and the worry in my heart became more and more intense, but I still said with a smile: "It won't be so coincidental, right?" Haha......"

Lantern Xiao didn't smile, but looked at Anado. Anador frowned slightly, then said to me, "Come! Let me see! ”

I reached over, but Anado didn't turn on the flashlight, probably for fear of attracting the strange fish. Fortunately, the moonlight was quite bright tonight, and Anado raised my hand slightly and took a closer look.

I quickly asked her, "How's it going?" It's nothing, right? ”

Anado nodded, did not speak, I just wanted to ask, Anado pinched my injured finger's hand, suddenly pushed forward, I immediately felt a strong swelling pain, and then my wound, instantly gushed out a stream of blood.

I didn't expect Anado's hand to be so strong, it hurt so much that I almost screamed. However, I can also think of her purpose in doing this, presumably to squeeze out the contaminated blood to avoid infection.

I shook my hand, relieved the pain, and grinned at Anado, "Is it okay this time?" ”

Anador smiled and nodded, "Well, it's okay! Then he turned his head and craned his neck and looked around, "I don't know what's going on outside." ”

Lantern Xiao sighed, "Alas, listening to the sound is not over yet!" Wait! ”

Anador patted Lantern Xiao, "Hey, do you have a cigarette for me?" ”

Lantern Xiao looked at Anador in surprise, "You're here again?" Are you still going to crush it for me? There's no snake here! ”

Anador stretched out her hand, "I won't break it for you again this time!" ”

"Really?" Lantern Festival will be skeptical.

"Less nonsense! Hurry up! Anador urged, a little impatiently. I watched from the side and thought it was funny, but I didn't expect Anador to actually smoke.

Anaduo took the cigarette handed over by Lantern Xiao and put it in his mouth, Lantern Xiao quickly took out a lighter and lit it for Anadot.

Unexpectedly, Anador only took a puff, and was choked and coughed, and Lantern Xiao smiled when he saw it next to him, "I said that you can't smoke, and you can't smoke what cigarettes you want!" ”

Anador gave him a blank look, then turned to look at me, "Hey, by the way, let me see if your hands are still bleeding?" ”

Without thinking about it, I passed my hand, but I didn't expect Anadot to take my hand and just look at it slightly, and then suddenly, pick up a lit cigarette and poke it at my wound.

I vaguely heard a "snort" as a piercing pain came from my fingers. I immediately howled like a pig, and I tried to pull my hand back as if I had been electrocuted. But Anador grabbed my wrist and shouted at Lantern Xiao, "Don't be stunned, help!" ”

Looking at the stupid Lantern Festival on the side, I realized at this time, nodded in response, stepped forward and hugged me tightly, and the sharp pain in my fingers rushed to my brain in waves, I felt a burst of dizziness, and I felt that I was about to faint in pain.

At this time, Anador took the cigarette butt away from my finger, and I was relieved, and beads of sweat were already oozing down my forehead. In fact, it only took more than ten seconds for Anadot to press the cigarette butt on my hand, but it felt like an incomparably long process.

Anador threw away the cigarette butt and pulled the first aid kit out of her bag. I looked up at my fingers, and the wound was blackened by the cigarette butt. I even had a faint smell of barbecue.

Anaduo helped me start the bandage, and I said to Anaduo in pain and weakness, "Sister, what are you going to do?" Even if I had a bad attitude towards you just now, you don't have to retaliate against me like this, just burn it with a cigarette butt! ”

Anado gave me a blank look while bandaging, and said: "I don't call this revenge, I call it revenge with virtue, don't look at the attitude you just had towards me, but I still saved you!" ”

Lantern Xiao leaned over and said with a wicked smile: "Hey, sister, why did you do that just now, it looks quite enjoyable!" ”

I raised my hand and gave Lantern Xiao a punch in the shoulder, "Your uncle, who are you with!" Seeing that Anador smiled without saying a word, I continued: "Actually, if you don't say it, I know, is there something wrong with this blow on my hand?" That's why you use this high-temperature detoxification method? ”

Anador listened to my words and looked up in surprise, "Huh? You all know this, you have a wide range of knowledge! ”

I smiled slightly, and then I listened to Anado's words: "That's right, I noticed that your wound is slightly blue, which is poisonous at this time, and this creature in the mud is easy to carry all kinds of bacteria and parasites, even if you are not poisoned, the wound is seriously infected, in such a place, it is almost like killing you." ”

After listening to Anado's words, my heart couldn't help but tighten, thinking, sure enough, it's just that I didn't expect it to be so serious.

Lantern Xiao couldn't help but turn pale, "I didn't expect this strange fish to be so dangerous!" ”

After Anaduo helped me bandage it, she looked at the strange fish that was nailed to the ground by the Lantern Festival and said, "What kind of species is this, I have never heard of it, I didn't expect there to be such a thing in the mountains!" ”

Lantern Xiao stepped forward and kicked the strange fish that was lying on the ground and did not move, we thought it was dead, but before it was touched by Lantern Xiao, it writhed again. We were unprepared and taken aback, and Lantern Xiao exclaimed, "Damn! It's not dead! ”

I thought about the first time I stabbed the strange fish, and I vaguely remembered that I was stabbing the strange fish close to its head, although I was in a hurry and didn't deliberately attack any part of it. I can't help but wonder, does this strange fish have to attack its head?

Thinking so, I pulled out my short knife and stepped forward, and when I saw that the pierced monster fish was still writhing, I raised my short knife and stabbed it at the head of the monster fish.

I didn't expect it to work, and after the strange fish convulsed for a while, it really gradually stopped moving, and it seemed that this time it was really dead.

Lantern Xiao's eyes widened, "You have to attack the head, it's a zombie!" ”

"Zombie ???" I think the words of the Lantern Festival are really a bit fantastical, "Fish zombies? How is this possible! ”

Lantern Xiao's expression was grim, and he shook his head slightly, "I don't say that, in fact, in nature, there is a real example of a certain creature's body being invaded and controlled by other creatures." For example, zombie ants and nematode crickets. ”

Listening to Lantern Xiao say this, I do remember hearing something similar, after zombie ants are infected with zombie fungi, they will be controlled by some of their chemicals, leave the ant colony alone, and under the control of zombie fungi, feed on the fungal spores in their bodies, and finally hang themselves on the leaves, becoming the last nest for the growth of fungal spores. The nematodes, which live in the crickets, are able to control the crickets to commit suicide by jumping into the river because they prefer places with water. So I said to Lantern Xiao, "You mean, it's a fungal infection?" ”

Lantern Xiao didn't answer, but said, "Let's cut this thing open and see, and we'll know." As he spoke, Lantern Xiao kicked the dead strange fish at his feet.

I nodded, but Anadot didn't quite understand, "What do you want to do?" ”

Lantern Xiao swept the short knife in his hand, "Dissect!" ”

Looking at Anado's surprised expression, I continued, "That might be able to figure out where they came from." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, Lantern Xiao had already cut the belly of the strange fish with a knife in his hand, and suddenly a fishy smell spread, I turned on the flashlight, carefully covered the light with my hands, and we were surprised to find that the internal organs in the stomach of the strange fish had rotted.

Anado covered her nose and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Lantern Xiao said: "This shows that the fish's own organs have long been exhausted and necrotic, and it cannot provide normal functions, but it can still move, which means that something must be parasitic on its body, and now it seems to be in its head." ”

Anado thought for a moment and said, "But these parasitic strange fish, they seem to be heading in the same direction, but where are they going?" ”

Lantern Xiao pondered for a moment, shook his head, and then slowly stood up.

At this time, I noticed that the surroundings seemed to be much quieter, and the sound of those strange fish crawling just now seemed to have reached a farther position. I saw Lantern Xiao get up to observe, and I wanted to ask him what he saw, but as soon as I wanted to speak, I saw Lantern Xiao standing up, and suddenly frowned, followed by a change in expression, and hurriedly squatted down again.

I quickly asked, "What's wrong?" How about above? ”

Lantern Xiao first muttered to herself, "How is it possible? Could it be Yuan An? It shouldn't be! ”

I patted Lantern Xiao and continued to ask, "What did you see?" ”

Lantern Xiao looked at the front of him in a daze, and then turned his head to look at me, "I saw the light!" ”

"Light?" Anaduo and I were also stunned, "There is light, does it mean that someone is coming?" ”

Lantern Xiao shook her head, "But it's not like it!" ”

Anador asked softly, "Why do you say that?" ”

Lantern Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Because the light I see is green!" ”

Now we know why Lantern Festival has such an expression, who will use green light? In other words, how can a normal person use green light for lighting?

The three of us looked at each other, each seeing a hint of panic and fear in the eyes of the others.
