Chapter 301 Avoiding the heat(1/2)

The bricks thrown by Dr. Du led to a new round of golden and good-sounding debate between Wang Le and Huang Zaijiang. There were a series of professional terms, and I couldn't understand which one I took out.

It’s better to tell me directly that this is quantum entanglement and the universal law of the universe.

I have never liked to listen to their long-term comments, I just want to hear the result, can this cave still sleep?

Finally, Dr. Du took a photo and said that this place is not only not allowed to sleep, but also has the risk of petrification after a long time. We must leave this place and find another place to camp.

When we returned to the ground, the heat was in full swing, and even if we stood in the shade, we could not feel a trace of coolness.

Mike said that there was a cave this kilometer away, but the cave was small and could only allow three people to sleep at most, so they didn't use it as a campsite before.

Chen Qinghan said we didn’t have to sleep, it would be better to have a place to sit and rest, so Mike led us to the small cave.

Despite taking sufficient anti-heat measures, Dr. Du and the others still couldn't stand it. The one-kilometer road had already made them sweat.

In the small cave, Chen Qinghan asked them to take a cooling pill and also gave Mike and me one.

This one I made was made of, it was not really a cooling pill, it was a mint candy bought by Chen Qinghan.

After taking cooling pills, their body temperature dropped rapidly. However, before they could sit down and rest, Wang Le discovered that there were stone people in the cave.

The hiding place that Mike knew, and those who entered this area first knew, the road map was formulated uniformly, and every team had known about the terrain along the way.

So it is not surprising that someone hides in this small cave first.

Although the threat of stone men is very small, the reasons for their changes are forced to beware of.

"Doctor Du, if you want to say that the most common things in this desert is definitely sand. Do you think sand can also... that imitates the advanced life form?" I asked.

The two caves cannot be camped, and the problem is quite small. Plants and rocks are much less in the desert, but not much more. If you want to avoid them, you can avoid them.

But the only thing that cannot be avoided in the desert is sand. If the transformation mentioned by Dr. Du can even affect sand, then every step we take is at risk of being assimilated. Wouldn't it be difficult to move forward?

"This is possible, the sand is highly fluid and it is difficult to leave traces." Dr. Du thought for a while and said.

In other words, even if someone has been transformed, it is still hidden under the yellow sand, which is difficult for us to discover.

Dr. Du and I were talking when Wang Le jumped up again and turned around and waved a shovel.

The shovel hit a hard object and made a crisp sound of "when".

Our eyes were all looking behind him, and a stone man stood behind him. He slapped it with a shovel. The stone man just shook it, and he didn't even take a step back.

Although this stone man is not tall, he is very strong. His arms are almost as thick as Wang Le's legs. With this physique, Wang Le may not be able to defeat him when he has not turned into a stone, and his body is now stone.

I guess Wang Le's own hands were more hurt than the stone man when he hit him.

"It patted my shoulder." Wang Le waved the shovel, and indeed took a few steps back, shook his hand, looking like he was hurting.

Mike tried to communicate with it, but unfortunately the stone man couldn't understand it at all. He waved his thick arms and smashed it at Huang Zaijiang, who was closest to it.

Its arms could almost hang to the ground, and it hit the ground a few times with a bang. Chen Qinghan took action and cut it into several pieces, turning it into a pile of 'gravel', and then it became quiet.

Obviously, this place is too difficult to stay, and several other stone men are ready to move.

We exited the small cave and returned to the ground. We couldn't rush to go, so we had to rest in the shadow outside the cave entrance.

The high temperature is also fatal, so Dr. Du gave us medicine to avoid falling ill with heat stroke.

Her medicine is different from the cooling pills that Chen Qinghanfa. Just look at Wang Le and the others' expressions, you can tell that Dr. Du's medicine is not as domineering as the cooling pills.

Should it be hot after taking the medicine? Wang Le kept wiping his sweat, and Huang Zaijiang tried his best to control it, but he couldn't help drinking water.

Chen Qinghan looked at the time. It was noon now and there were still several hours before the sun set. If we stayed like this, the water on our body would not be enough to support our destination.

"Is there any other campsite?" Chen Qinghan asked.

Mike hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, but... it's dangerous there."

"Is it the Scorpion Cave?" Chen Qinghan guessed.

"Yes, it's written in the information," Mike said.

The information does contain a scorpion hole. After a team of people came in, they were frequently attacked by scorpions at night. The wild survival experts in the team followed the clues and found the scorpion's nest. It was an underground cave, which was not only cool, but also had a spring.

But there are scorpions in the hole. If you want to go in and fetch water, you will kill all the scorpions inside.

They tried solid gasoline and wanted to burn the scorpions inside, even if they burned them away.

But the number of scorpions inside was far beyond their imagination. They were almost running out of fuel, and the scorpions continued to run out.

There were three people responsible for burning the scorpion holes, two were flooded by scorpions, and one stood far and escaped early, so he had the opportunity to run back to the large army and tell others about this.

However, that night, they were attacked by scorpions again. Mike used the original words of the recorder to describe the scorpions, like black tides, rushing to the camp, and soon swallowing up the tent and people.

The team had only two survivors. Of course, they only survived the scorpion tide and did not return successfully. When Mike led the team into the area, they found their bodies.

The record book was found from the body. Whether it was heated or fed to the scorpion, this was a question.

After Mike finished speaking, Chen Qinghan solicited everyone's opinions. Dr. Du and the others had no objection and agreed to go to the Scorpion Cave to escape the summer heat. They could still compete with Scorpion, but they really couldn't compete with the High Temperature.

Mike led the way and led us on another stretch of road to the bottom of a sudden rock.

The rock is shaped like a cloud, with a hole under the cloud, and there are traces of tools cutting out at the edge.

In other words, the hole was not as big as it is now, and it was expanded by the previous explorers using tools.

Now I can just get into the hole with my waist. It’s a bit difficult for big men like Chen Qinghan and Mike.

I volunteered to go in and explore the road. Mike immediately objected, saying that I couldn't go in alone.

Dr. Du immediately said that she went with me, and the heights of ours were suitable in the team. I looked at Chen Qinghan and waited for him to decide that he knew my situation. He was not afraid of meeting a group of scorpions after entering. But if Dr. Du went with me, once she survived, she would know my secret.

But if I speak, it will inevitably cause doubt, so it is most appropriate for Chen Qinghan to speak.

"Okay, you guys go and be careful." Chen Qinghan received my sight, not only did not object, but also agreed very happily.

I thought to myself that you are exposing me or not? Do you want me to kill someone to silence me? Do you want me to kill someone with a scorpion?

He muttered in his heart, and Chen Qinghan didn't give me any hints, and just watched us into the Scorpion Cave with a faint expression.

The beginning of the road was very narrow, and it was probably difficult to turn around and escape. After walking for about ten meters, the space in the cave suddenly opened up.

This cave is far from the deeper than the cave we lived in before. It is closer to the surface, but I don’t feel any heat, it is particularly cool, but it tastes not very pleasant. After all, it is the scorpion’s nest and has been set on fire.

"Look." Dr. Du looked around and found no scorpion, but instead found the puddle in the middle of the hole.

"Why are there no scorpions guarding me?" I looked at the ground, and even looked up at the top of my head. There was not a scorpion in the hole.

"Fill some water first." Dr. Du took out the kettle that had long been empty and walked quickly to the puddle.

There are rocks around the puddle. From a distance, it looks like a puddle. In fact, when you get closer, it looks more like a well.

Because the water quality is obviously very clear, but you can't see the bottom at first sight, and you don't know how deep it is.

"Be careful, don't have crocodiles." I reminded half-jokingly.

Although crocodiles are unlikely to appear in this place, it is hard to say anything else. Some "small animals" always appear near the water source.

"Ha, crocodiles? I've killed ten!" Dr. Du said proudly.

"Female hero, be careful of sailing for a thousand-year-old ship, don't be careless." I walked up to her, paying attention to the movements around me, and preparing to pull her at will.

The rocks around the spring were a little high. Dr. Du grabbed the rope on the kettle and put it into the water, and his upper body sank. In this position, if a fish bites the kettle in the water, she will easily be taken down.

"Let it--" Before Dr. Du finished speaking, the spring suddenly thrust, something came out of the water, and then her body fell down, and all the words she was saying were stuck.

I quickly reached out and grabbed her, but grabbing the clothes was obviously ineffective. The force in the water was even greater. Doctor Du's other hand had already supported the rock, trying to resist this force, but failed.

Seeing that she was about to pierce her head, I jumped forward and hugged her waist. Then I used force to pull up the onion with my hands, legs, waist and back at the same time. I pulled out Dr. Du from the spring's eyes and threw it behind me.

Anyone with a bad waist should not try it, as it will easily cut yourself in half.

Dr. Du fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and got up. She was a doctor and had the skills to protect herself, so she did not suffer major injuries.

"You...awe." Dr. Du said, "and said something, and put it into a word.

"What's going on? What caught you?" I'm more concerned about this issue.

"Yes, it's human." Dr. Du stretched out the arm that was being grabbed, and there were a few fingerprints on her forearm. Even if it was not a human hand, it was a humanoid hand.

"Did you see clearly?"

"Yes, it's a person, a woman, a foreigner."

"Can it be the missing person in Kangaroo Country?"

"It should be that she has a nameplate around her neck."

However, Dr. Du did not see the words on the card clearly. The incident happened just now and she didn't have time to read the details.

"The ability to survive here means there is space on the other side of the spring." I thought of the places I had been to before, the water source could be a channel, a natural barrier, and a bond connecting the two spaces.

But Dr. Du's next words denied my guess, and she said that he was a dead person just now.

She is a doctor, identifying living people and dead people, which is her specialty. She said that the person has no body temperature, his pupils have spread, and his skin has corpse spots. If he is a living person, he will also need another blow to kill the living person.

"Ah...that water..." Can you still drink the water soaked in the corpse?

"Xiao Leng, do you say that the scorpion is missing, will there be any connection with the female corpse just now?" Dr. Du is in her early thirties this year. She did not hide her age and did not bother to say this. When we joined the group together, she said that she was several years older than me, and I could call her Sister Du.

I still have a psychological burden to call a person who is thousands of years younger than me, so I chose to call her Dr. Du.

"Are those scorpions scared away by female corpses?"
