Chapter 117: Underground Lake

When Umbrella Shishuai said this, his eyes widened suddenly, and he hurriedly said to Chen Ziyang: "By the way, you go and see the injury on Liu Cong's hand, I think he is injured strangely, it doesn't seem to be an ordinary injury." ”

Chen Ziyang hurriedly walked to Liu Cong and found that he had not woken up yet, and seemed to be trembling. Raising his hand to test the temperature of his forehead, Chen Ziyang found that Liu Cong was actually having a high fever. When he touched his forehead, he felt hot. Chen Ziyang Xin said that it was no wonder that Liu Cong was helped back by Umbrella Shishuai before, with such a high body temperature, people have already collapsed.

Untying the bandage on Liu Cong's left hand, Chen Ziyang saw that half of Liu Cong's arm was already blackened. Originally, he thought that Liu Cong was bitten by a snake, or because of some other reason, what kind of poison was the reason for this, but then Chen Ziyang took a closer look, and he found that Liu Cong seemed to have been poisoned by the corpse, and now this half of the arm looks somewhat similar to the arm of the corpse demon.

At this time, Chen Ziyang remembered that when Liu Cong used his palm to form a talisman before, he had pressed his left palm to the corpse demon's body, and it may have been at that time that the corpse poison went down the wound on his hand to his body and became what he is now. Fortunately, Umbrella Shishuai reminded him in time, if Liu Cong's entire arm turned black, then there would be no help, and after his corpse poison attacked his heart, he would also become a corpse demon, and it would be troublesome at that time.

didn't have time to think about the reason, Chen Ziyang first took out a rune paper from Liu Cong's body, drew a spirit rune, lit it and turned it into spirit rune water to feed him to drink. Then he found a big plastic bag, put the only bit of raw glutinous rice he had on his body, and then poured some water, and used this plastic bag to soak Liu Cong's blackened half of his forearms in the glutinous rice water.

Originally, the best way to get rid of the corpse poison was to apply glutinous rice to the wound and pull out the damp poison little by little, but because the glutinous rice is now very small, I have to use this method, but I don't know if I can completely suck out the damp poison. But this can at least temporarily alleviate the flow of Liu Cong's corpse poison to the heart, which should play a certain role.

After doing this, Chen Ziyang went to Wang Lele and Lin Xueping's side to take a look. Seeing that the two of them were just frightened and overtired, they had been resting, not waking up, not eating, and there was nothing serious, so he relieved his heart and came back to listen to Umbrella Shishuai continue.

After telling Umbrella Shishuai that Liu Cong was not worried about his life, Umbrella Shishuai nodded reassuringly, and then said: "Fortunately there is him along the way, otherwise, we may not be able to see you alive." I went on to say that the passage was really long, and we probably walked for almost a day. Moving forward in the same environment all the time, looking at the same things, it is most likely to make people sleepy, and everyone walks groggy.

Just when everyone was exhausted, a cool breeze woke everyone up. The soldiers in front reported that the passage had come to an end, and that there was a large body of water in front of them. This underground lake is very large, there is no end in sight, and the lake is relatively deep, three or four meters in shallow places, and more than five or six meters deep in places.

The lake is full of plants that have never been seen before, and the strangest thing is that none of them are green, most of them are mainly crimson, and occasionally some yellow. At that time, Qin Liang judged that these plants were plants that did not need sunlight, because there was no chlorophyll relationship, they could not carry out photosynthesis, and at the same time, these plants were not green. This plant can only be found deep underground, where sunlight is not seen all year round.

Qin Liang suggested that everyone continue to move in the water in the direction of the passage. Because according to him, this passage was used to transport large building materials, which, according to the current situation, should be tied to wooden rafts with wheels.

In this way, when the wooden raft arrives in the current place, it will fall into the water and float on the water, and there is no need to use a lot of manual transportation, so normally speaking, the direction of this tomb should also be the direction of everyone in the water.

Camp Commander Jin felt that what Qin Liang said was reasonable, so he didn't reject his idea, but when a few people went into the water, it was difficult, first, there were too many plants in this water, layered, and the rhizome part of the plants under the water was very tough, it was easy to trip people, and at the same time, there were many people in the team who couldn't swim, and some of the equipment they carried was also very heavy, so the whole team had almost no way to completely pass through this water.

Everyone rested in place, let a few soldiers who could swim carefully search around, just when we were resting in the passage, Liu Cong suddenly fainted, I only knew that he had a high fever, obviously it was no longer good, the team doctor checked his injury, found that the wound on his left hand seemed to be infected, and then gave him antipyretic and anti-inflammatory injections, saying that there was no major problem, and I was temporarily relieved.

Later, as Qin Liang said, several soldiers found a parked wooden raft nearby, most of the wooden rafts parked in the water had rotted thoroughly, and the wood broke into two pieces when touched, but a few wooden rafts were parked on the stone wall, and these soldiers took a lot of effort to get the wooden raft down, and found that the wooden raft could still be used.

At this time, the problems of the entire scientific expedition team were all solved, everyone put the equipment on the wooden raft, and those who could not swim also went up to the wooden raft, the wooden raft was very large and strong, and it was more than enough to take these people and things. The rest of the swimmers took turns pushing the raft forward in the water, and at the same time, the man on the raft tied a machete to the long stick to break all the plants in the direction of the raft and reduce the resistance of the raft forward.

Everyone walked on the water like this, since entering this place, this part of the journey is the most comfortable for us, not tired, not to mention, but also to look at the strange scenery around, and even some plants will shine under the illumination of the lights, very beautiful. Qin Liang was even more fascinated by these things, and kept collecting all kinds of specimens, saying that he wanted to take them back for research and research, which were all major discoveries in botany and archaeology.

There are more than 20 soldiers who can swim in total, divided into two groups, there are two soldiers at the end of the platoon to push forward, there are four soldiers on the left and right of the platoon to help pull forward, and there are also a few soldiers on the wooden platoon with long poles as poles, but the silt at the bottom of the lake is very thin, and the stone surface under the silt is too slippery, these poles do not use force, and do not play much role, mainly rely on people to push. Although the wooden raft walked slowly, it walked steadily.

However, the good times did not last long, it may be that this journey was too easy, and everyone relaxed their vigilance, until the soldiers swam in the water for half an hour, and when it was time to change shifts, someone found that the rear of the wooden platoon, the two soldiers who were pushing the wooden platoon forward, were all gone! ”
