Chapter 60: Make a simple warning device

He glanced at the others and said lightly, "If I hadn't come up, you should know what to do." ”

Liang Bo clenched the sulfur powder in his hand.

Fu Minglai is very good at water, if he can't come up, he will naturally be entangled by the giant python and can't move, and he will die below.

Then they should not go near this pool again, but should sprinkle sulfur around it and keep it well.

Fu Minglai held the iron axe and quickly disappeared into the pool.

With the position where he entered the water as the center of the circle, a small circle of waves rippled on the calm water.

The sun had set, and the sky was rapidly darkening.

Liang Dawei and Sun Chengyi got several torches.

The dim light of the fire reflected everyone's faces as if shrouded in a haze.

Everyone became extraordinarily silent, immersed in the torment of living like a year.

Liang Dawei stared at the water surface that had become pitch black, and said in a low voice, "How long has the head been down?" ”

Sun Chengyi shook his head gloomily, "I don't know." ”

Qin Min clenched his palms and silently counted the time in his heart, "...... One minute and fifteen seconds...... Two minutes and thirteen seconds ......"

The average person holds their breath underwater for 30 seconds to 2 minutes, and she remembers the Guinness record as if it were about 20 minutes.

If that time is exceeded, they won't have to wait any longer.

Qin Min was calm and counted to three minutes and eighteen seconds.

Almost everyone couldn't sit still, "Let's go down and find the leader!" ”

Liang Bo grabbed Sun Chengyi's wooden stick and knocked it on the ground, "Don't move!" Give me a good seat! ”

The light of the fire shone on his face, and his face seemed to be ten years older.

Liang Bo slowly took out the sulfur powder in his arms and said softly: "You can sprinkle these sulfur powder on the edge of the waterhole, and don't go near here in the future." ”

Everyone looked at the sulfur powder, but they didn't stretch out their hands, and stood stiffly in place.

Fu Minglai crawled out of the pool wet, saw this, passed through a few people, took the sulfur powder, and responded: "Then I'll sprinkle it." ”

The others were stunned when they saw him, and said happily: "Boss! ”

"Boss, are you alright?"

Fu Minglai waved his hand, "It's okay." ”

Liang Dawei saw Fu Minglai's green palm by the firelight, and said in surprise: "Boss, why are you green!" ”

Fu Minglai noticed that there was a lot of moss on his palms.

When he entered the water, it was already dark, and he couldn't see the bottom of the pool clearly, so he had to rely on the palm of his hand to grope every inch of the bottom of the pool, and it was stained with this moss.

"It's okay, it's green, it's green."

He'll wash it later, and then he'll wash it off.

Liang Bo glanced up and down at Fu Minglai a few times to confirm that he was safe and sound, so he couldn't help but raise his voice, "Fu boy, is that giant python not under the pool?" ”

Everyone looked at Fu Minglai with bright eyes.

Fu Ming glanced at Qin Min and nodded, "I really didn't find that giant python." ”

The others breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Min also relaxed, it seemed that she was just entangled by the green plants under the water.

The cold touch seemed to remain on the instep of the foot, and when I thought about it, my toes would curl up unconsciously.

Fu Minglai continued without pause: "It's just that I found traces of a giant python crawling under the pool, and the little lady didn't think about it, there was indeed a giant python in the water before." ”

The others just breathed a sigh of relief, and when they heard this, they were shocked, and they all coughed one after another.

Fu Minglai, "......"

He didn't mean to speak and gasp, but before he could finish his sentence, these people all relaxed.

Qin Min pursed his lower lip and said in a warm voice, "Are you saying that the giant python in the pool is gone?" But we never left the pool, and it was impossible for the python to sneak ashore. ”

Fu Minglai hummed softly, "There is a hole at the bottom of this pool, it was only as wide as a thigh before, I don't know when the hole became bigger, and the giant python entered and exited from the hole." ”

Liang Dawei hurriedly said: "Then let's plug the hole quickly!" ”

Others agreed: "Yes! Boss, as long as you move a big rock to plug the hole, won't that giant python come over? ”

Fu Minglai, "I've already moved." ”

Crowd, "......"

The head is so fast.

There is a large rock at the bottom of the pool.

Fu Minglai moved the big stone to the entrance of the cave, although it couldn't be covered tightly, but it was still blocked at all.

Everyone couldn't help but relax.

But I heard Fu Minglai speak: "It's just that I'm not sure if that big stone can stop the giant python, so this pool should be sprinkled with sulfur to prevent the giant python from coming ashore." ”

He could easily move that big rock, so why couldn't the python crash into it?

After everyone was happy for a while, their faces instantly fell.

Liang Dawei swallowed his saliva, "If we really can't stop the giant python, wouldn't it be that when we fetch water, the giant python might be watching us under the water?" ”

Fu Minglai felt that this statement was too naΓ―ve, "I think it should be more than just a look." ”

The python should have jumped out of the water and swallowed the people by the pool.

Liang Dawei's body couldn't help but tremble, "I haven't taken a bath or drunk water for the past few days." ”

Others followed suit.

Qin Min thought for a while, and Wen Sheng proposed, "Otherwise, let's make a simple warning device." ”

In the hidden place of the underwater hole, a rotating wooden sign is attached to a wooden stick that can swing from side to side, and the wooden stick sticks to the rock and extends to the surface of the water.

When the python comes, the wooden sign turns to the left with a stick, and when the python leaves, the wooden card turns to the right with a stick.

So they only have to see the pointing of the stick to know if the python is in the water.

As soon as Qin Min said that, he saw everyone's surprised looks, and said puzzledly: "What's wrong??" ”

Liang Dawei nodded and said, "That's a good idea!" ”

Others also praised again and again, "With this device, we don't have to worry about that giant python coming silently." ”

Liang Dawei scratched his head and suddenly said: "By the way, the little lady just said that there is a snake on the left side of the wooden stick, or a snake on the right?" ”

The others also couldn't remember a little, "To the left, right?" ”

"The little lady obviously said to the right."

Qin Min thought for a while, "A snake is drawn on the rock, and when the top of the stick swings to the position of the snake, it means that the giant python is coming, so you don't have to worry about remembering it." ”

"Good way!"

"It's good that you don't have to memorize things, I'm afraid I'll make a mistake."

Liang Bo also cooperated: "I have purple herbs that are difficult to fade, which can be made into juice to draw snakes. ”

Liang Bo picked up a torch and went back to the house to get the herbs.

The others hurriedly found the hard, blister-resistant wood, and according to Qin Min's request, they made wooden sticks and wooden signs, and then assembled them.

Because it was not a familiar carpentry, and the light was dim, they made several mistakes before they built the installation.

Everyone stood on the edge of the pool, and by the light of the fire, they could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when they looked at the wooden stick sticking to the rock and sticking obliquely into the water of the pool.
