Chapter 133 Stepping on mushrooms will rot your feet
After breakfast and filling the water, the team began to set off.
The bearded man asked us to call him Lao Shi, whose real name is Steve, and he loves Han culture and wants to follow the customs of the countryside.
He reached an agreement with Meng Qingyu and discovered the treasure. The two teams scored 37 points, Meng San and Shi Qi.
Because Meng Qingyu is not interested in treasure, but if she finds what she wants, the thing must belong to her.
Lao Shi and his subordinates just wanted to make money. Meng Qingyu looked down on Caibao. The two sides hit it off and there was no dispute.
I followed Chen Qinghan when he was convenient to go in the morning and told him the key points of what Professor Liu said last night.
He said he would try his best to help Professor Liu and ensure their lives as safe as possible.
I knew he would say this, and asked him if he had any ideas to detoxify Lu Xiaodao and the others.
Chen Qinghan said that he would go to Lu Xiaodao and the others to find out the situation. Detoxification must first know what poison is among them. Otherwise, with the current conditions, it is impossible to detoxify.
The convenience time is limited, so I whispered and quickly returned to the camp. Bi Shi smiled squintedly and said, "The relationship is so good, so go to the bathroom together."
"Ha, be envious. Unlike someone, I can only serve as a mount for my old enemy." I reflexively turned my mouth, glanced at the corner of my eyes, and found that He Su was awake, sitting on a stone, staring at me with resentment.
"Why don't you carry me?" He Su pouted, opened her arms and made a hug.
I really want to kick her away with one kick... This action is really not suitable for her.
Fortunately, she was about to wait for the opportunity and fell head-on to her knees. Bi Shi was probably afraid that she would knock her to death, so she stretched out her long legs and caught her face with her feet.
We didn't have a tent, so we didn't have to clean up. Lao Shi gave us two kettles.
It was left by his dead brother, and there was a small part of the equipment he handed it to me and I said thank you.
The two teams formed a large force, left the river and went deeper into the jungle again.
We have never encountered the dangers of yesterday, such as man-eating trees, flying ants and swamped earthworms, and the species of plants have also changed.
One of Lao Shi's subordinates accidentally stepped on a black mushroom. The thing was the size of a fist. After stepping on it, it turned into a ball of black smoke. Even if the man immediately pulled his feet, his feet still began to fester in a few minutes.
Lao Shi scolded him for being stupid. His shoelaces were not tied tightly and the corners of his pants were tied up, so the skin was covered with toxic substances from mushrooms.
Professor Liu said that the mushroom is not on the known plant lineage, and they cannot treat it in a targeted manner, and only applied the person with conventional anti-inflammatory ointment.
The island is full of dangers, and no small thing can be despised. The most terrifying thing is their unknownness.
There is no record of black mushrooms in the diary obtained by Professor Liu.
After all, diaries have limitations. If there has been no similar incidents around the owner of the diary, he will certainly not record them.
There must be four seasons on the island. The time Professor Liu’s friend came here may be another season. Black mushrooms are likely to be seasonal plants, so the content in the diary can only be used as a reference.
These are Professor Liu's speculations. I know nothing and can only listen.
Lao Shi also realized that his team and Meng Qingyu's team were not on the same level. The black mushrooms were not the only ones. Others didn't step on them, but his subordinates stepped on them, which showed that their vigilance was not as high as others.
The black mushrooms looked ominous, and the people in Meng Qingyu's team avoided them. Lao Shi gave his team members orders to follow Meng Qingyu's people.
The two teams are now mixed together. Chen Qinghan and I are surrounded by a thin foreigner, with a very short round buzz cut. He is different from other teammates. Everyone is carrying guns, and there are only two scimitars behind him.
On the way, he tried to talk to me and said that he was surprised that several of us had walked unscathed in the jungle.
When Meng Qingyu talked to Lao Shi, he did not mention the four of us, so the people in Lao Shi’s team still don’t know my identity as a ‘patriarch’.
A foreigner walking in front heard him talking behind him, turned his head and said that Meng Qingyu's team was full of great people, and protecting the four of us was nothing.
I closed my open mouth again and wanted to explain it, but they would be fine if they were willing to think so.
Seeing that we didn't say anything, Yuanbu Toutiao agreed to what we said and asked us how we escaped when we encountered man-eating trees and flying ants before.
"Because they are good at it." I summed up the process into one sentence to answer them.
The round buzz cut was very disappointed. He wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by his teammate's screams.
The person who made the cry was the one who stepped on the poisoned mushroom. He pointed to the jungle on the side of the team and called "Someone".
When the team was moving, everyone's eyes were forward or looking at their feet. Because his foot was injured and was carried away by someone, his sight mostly fell in the jungle on both sides of the team.
He called someone, and Meng Qingyu and Lao Shi immediately issued an order to stop moving forward.
After Meng Qingyu confessed his identity, the team leader retreated to the second line and was only responsible for leading the way, moving forward, and retreating. All the orders for Meng Qingyu were given by Meng Qingyu.
We returned to the road we found yesterday. Although ossified creatures blocked a section of the road, there was still a road buried underground after leaving that area.
Lao Shi and the others were completely unaware of the road. When they saw the leader digging soil with a shovel, they curiously asked him what he was doing.
Cong Zhibo told him that the leader found a road underground, and might lead to the islanders' residence.
The two people who were unconscious yesterday had woken up and didn't notice anything abnormal about them yet. Cong Zhibo recovered the fastest, ate well, drank well, and slept again, and was basically resurrected with full blood.
He also thanked Meng Qingyu for not leaving him, and Meng Qingyu did not mention the matter she wanted to leave him. Everyone else chose to remain silent, but instead made him the happiest person in this team.
It is said that fools have good fortune, but I hope he has such good luck and can stay stupid until he returns home safely.
The team stopped and the leader sent Lu Xiaodao and another person to the place where the man pointed.
But there was no one there, and there were no footprints on the ground. Lao Shi scolded the man a few words and asked him to see clearly before speaking.
The man swore that he saw it, but in a blink of an eye, the man disappeared.
There are only two teams that have already climbed the island. If there is no other team, there shouldn't be anyone else in the jungle.
Of course, there are two possibilities: one is that there are still people living on the island, and the other is...
I looked at Professor Liu, he looked at that place several times, and asked if he could see the man clearly.
