I sighed, that was the crux of the matter.
We can only have one-way communication, but there is no way to effectively obtain specific information from them.
I had no choice but to pull Cui Hao aside and shout at the other side of the wall.
"The two of us will discuss it first and see how we can ask questions effectively. You guys wait a moment."
A soft sound soon came from the opposite side.
The two of us immediately squatted by the wall, carefully discussing how to ask questions.
I carefully observed the surrounding environment, and then set my goals on the most critical points.
"Cui Hao, since they can't answer specific questions, can we give them four options like a multiple-choice question. If you choose the first option, then knock on the wall. If you choose the fourth option, just knock on the wall. Around."
I clicked on the golden jade tree next to us, and at the same time I clicked on the side of our wall.
"Now, I feel that there is one point here that is the most suspicious. One is the golden jade tree, the other is the wall behind us, and the ceiling above us and the ground."
After Cui Hao heard what I said, he immediately understood what I meant.
He nodded, quickly walked to the wall, pressed against the wall and shouted to the other side.
"We want to figure out how to get out of this place. Is this key point on the ceiling above our heads, the floor under our feet, this wall, or the jade tree on the side edge? If it is the ceiling above our heads, you will Knock it once, and so on, if it’s a jade tree with golden threads, knock it four times.”
After Cui Hao finished shouting, the two of them stood cautiously on the edge of the wall, not daring to breathe, waiting for the answer from the other side.
After a while, the sound of knocking on the wall was clearly heard.
I immediately looked back at the golden jade tree next to me. It seemed that the problem occurred in this gem tree.
It's just that I circled around the tree, but I still couldn't see where the key point was.
Cui Hao simply jumped up, grabbed the trunk of the tree, and climbed up the golden silk thread.
Then, he squatted inside the canopy and checked the situation on the top of the tree.
I looked up at the bottom and helped him look out for the wind.
Suddenly, Cui Hao exclaimed, shook his body and fell from the tree.
Fortunately, I was right under the tree, so I just gave him a hand.
Cui Hao almost broke my arm, but luckily I held on.
I quickly grabbed Cui Hao, stared at the crown of the jade tree with vigilance, and asked him what was on the tree?
"What on earth scared you like this?"
Just as I finished speaking, I heard a rustling sound from the top of the tree crown.
The next second, a squeaking scream sounded.
Before I even had time to react, I felt something suddenly jump onto my back, and then it went down the collar of my clothes and into my robe.
"what?"
I quickly reached out to grab it, but there was a sharp pain in my back.
It felt like something had bitten me hard on the back.
Immediately blood burst out.
But soon, I heard another violent creaking sound from my back, like an extremely painful moan and howl.
Immediately afterwards, something rolled out of my clothes.
A round thing was rolling on the ground, and its body was still stained with the blood spurting from my wound.
Cui Hao rushed over in a few steps, quickly stretched out the vines, tied up the thing, and forced it to the ground.
Then, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s just that my back is extremely itchy, especially the wound caused by this thing’s bite, which is even more painful.
If I had known this, I should have put on my helmet.
I quickly pulled the protective clothing away, exposed my back, and turned towards Cui Hao.
"Please help me see if I was bitten by this thing on my back. It's itchy and painful. I can't bear it anymore."
If the angle of this thing's bite hadn't been too tricky and I couldn't reach out to catch it, I might have scratched the wound badly by now.
Cui Hao turned to look at my back. He suddenly exclaimed and grabbed my arm tightly.
"Little prince, no matter what, please don't scratch your back. You must listen to me on this."
As he spoke, he took off his backpack, took out the medicine box and tweezers, and then asked me to squat down.
I didn't know why, but I still squatted on the ground as Cui Hao said.
He picked up the tweezers and a medicine bottle and poured the powder inside into the medicine box. Then he picked up the small bottle and the tweezers and started playing with my back.
A tearing pain shot through my back and I could barely hold back a groan.
But Cui Hao never stopped, still doing something slowly on my back.
It wasn't until nearly ten minutes passed that he stopped.
Cui Hao breathed a sigh of relief and sat slumped on the ground, sweating profusely.
When I turned to look at him, he had this look on his face.
I quickly helped Cui Hao up and looked at the small bottle in his hand in surprise.
At this time, Cui Hao had already put the lid on the bottle. The bottle was opaque and I couldn't see the contents clearly at all.
Seeing me staring at the bottle in surprise, Cui Hao sighed softly and put the bottle into my hand.
"You can take a look after twisting it open, and then twist the bottle immediately. I must seal this thing to prevent it from coming out again to harm others."
I nodded, took the bottle in my hand, quickly opened the lid and looked at the contents.
The moment I opened the lid, I almost vomited.
Because there were clearly several tiny bugs as long as fingers crawling inside the bottle.
The worm is probably not much thicker than a needle and thread. The tiny worm is like a black thread or a handful of hair, constantly entangled and coiled in the bottle.
If these bugs weren't still active, I would have thought that Cui Hao had stuffed a handful of hair in here.
I immediately twisted the bottle cap back and looked at Cui Hao in surprise.
"What the hell is this?"
Cui Hao tapped my back.
"It was taken out from your back. The thing that fell on your back just now must have bitten you and pushed all these parasites into your body."
Cui Hao looked at me in surprise.
"But these bugs don't know what's going on. They seem to be unable to penetrate into the blood vessels of your skin, so they keep wandering around on the surface. That's why I caught them out."
He tapped the pitch black thing on the ground that was tightly wrapped by his vines.
This thing is about the size of half a basketball, bulging like a hemisphere, with various tentacles growing on it.
In addition, this thing has no eyes on its body, and it is impossible to see how this thing determines its direction.
But I can clearly see a huge mouthpart standing clearly in the center of his tentacles.
And there were a few strands of meat hanging on it, which must have been the thing that bit me just now.
At this time, the thing was still rolling on the ground, but it was restrained by the vines, so the rolling tendency was not too obvious.
Cui Hao stared at the strange bug in confusion.
I don't know whether this thing is an insect or not. It looks weird and completely different from mammals.
There isn't even a hair on the body.
But this thing doesn't have any eyes, and it's different from any bug I know. Neither of us knows how to define this thing.
After Cui Hao carefully observed the insect for a few times, he suddenly grabbed my arm.
"Young prince, you go up the tree next. I'll wait for you below, and I'll look out for you. I probably know why these things can't get close to you."
I glanced at Cui Hao doubtfully. I didn't think there was anything special about me.
Cui Hao was stained by a drop of my blood dripping on the ground.
"Of course it's because your blood is different. It should be like what Li Zhuang said. The so-called king marked your blood, so these things don't dare to come near you at all. Anyone who wants to corrode or suck Anyone with your blood will end up like this."
Cui Hao controlled the vines to lift the insect up. At this time, the insect was still struggling and could only make a very sharp cry.
Cui Hao turned a deaf ear and just used those vines to slowly open the insect's tentacles, open its mouthparts, and pointed to one of them and said to me.
"Look, there are traces of corrosion here. And I found that any place on his body that was stained with your blood seemed to be corroded by sulfuric acid, leaving traces of corroded flesh. So I suspect that it is most likely you The blood problem prevents these bugs from burrowing into your body and parasitizes, and it also makes this bug suffer such heavy damage."
Cui Hao pointed to the top of the tree crown.
"I wonder if someone has specially set up these defensive bugs here, so the top of the tree seems peaceful, but there are several such bugs guarding deep down. I was also startled by these things just now. That’s why I jumped down. I didn’t expect that I would take one down just like that. But now it seems that these bugs should be afraid of you, so you go up to check, which is more appropriate than me.”
When I heard that there were several such insects on the jade tree, I suddenly felt a chill in my heart.
I looked at the top of the tree canopy and had only one thought in my mind: never go up there.
If it climbs up, what's the point?
But in the face of my rejection, Cui Hao was quite persistent.
"Go, young prince. Judging from your situation, these things dare not hurt your body. Only if you find a way out can the two of us escape from here."
