Take off your pants, exposing one side of your thigh.
Sister Hong and I were both frightened.
Didn't expect it at all.
There was a wound the size of a fingernail on the outside of my thigh, near my pants pocket!
The skin and flesh of the wound were everted, purple-red, and somewhat suppurated.
The thing is, I didn't feel any pain at all!
I pressed it lightly with my hand and felt nothing at all.
I pressed the wound on my thigh and some juice flowed out.
At the same time, Sister Hong obviously didn’t speak, but I heard a voice.
"Yunfeng, where are you? I'm here." This is what I heard on the night when the fog started.
Judging from Sister Hong's expression, I can tell that only I can hear this voice, not her.
"Wait! Yunfeng, don't move yet!" Sister Hong shouted, her eyes were horrified, staring at my wound.
I saw that on the inner side of my thigh, visible to the naked eye, the skin and flesh were constantly undulating, and there was clearly something alive inside!
"Don't move! Hold it!" Sister Hong took out the dagger directly.
My thighs looked like this, I was scared.
I bit my clothes and watched all this in horror.
The dagger was very sharp, Sister Hong gritted her teeth, and she focused on the area on my thigh that was slightly squirming. Directly cut the knife.
As soon as the dagger cut the flesh, it would bleed. I bit my clothes tightly, expecting it to be painful. Unexpectedly, I didn't feel any pain at all, just a soreness and numbness.
After cutting open the flesh, you can see clearly.
Inside was a tawny bug. It was the legless cicada I had carried in my pocket out of curiosity.
Sister Hong carefully dug out the bug with the tip of a knife.
The cicadas died after they came out.
As soon as the insect died, I started to feel pain. The wound on the outside of my thigh felt like a heartbreaking pain.
Sister Hong used a dagger to cut her own clothes, and tied me up with a strip of cloth to stop the bleeding.
She wiped her sweat, took a breath and said, "Okay, it should be fine."
Strangely enough, once the bug was removed, I no longer imitated her speech. The previous auditory hallucinations disappeared and everything returned to normal.
Sister Hong looked at the dead bugs on the ground and frowned: "What an evil thing. I never thought of it before, but now I suddenly thought of something, a legendary little bug called a yes-bug."
Sister Hong spent more than ten minutes telling me everything she thought about.
I felt incredible after hearing this.
This insect has been recorded many times in ancient books. At first, the ancients did not know enough about it and classified this disease as one of the rare and difficult miscellaneous diseases. There is a record in "Compendium of Materia Medica".
"Read the medicinal materials, stop the thunder pills, and stop the insects."
Specifically how Li Shizhen treated it is how later generations interpreted it. It is said that Li Shizhen showed a catalog of medicinal materials to a person suffering from a strange disease. Li Shizhen asked the person to read the names of the medicinal materials aloud. At first, the patient did not feel any strangeness. When the name "Thunder Pill" was recited, the patient began to shake his hands and feet and sweat on his head. , looking scared. Later, Li Shizhen used thunder pills as medicine, decocted it and let him drink it. Sure enough, the strange disease improved the next day. This is a saying in the legend of later generations.
This kind of insect was discovered in the secret place of the garden. I carefully recalled the cause and effect of the incident.
Chen Jiansheng has been trapped here for some time. Before we arrived, he had entered it several times.
Is there a possibility that the reason why he imitates human speech is because, like me, he has this strange bug crawling into his skin and flesh.
Maybe it was because of the passage of time. Chen Jiansheng's condition was more serious than mine, so his eyes were blurry and he was in a daze before the attack.
And because I discovered it early, I was still conscious when the attack occurred.
Chen Jiansheng never met anyone at first, so this thing has been lurking.
When I think about it, it seems to make sense.
What happened is not a good thing. Although it was handled early, it will definitely have an impact on our upcoming launch plan.
It becomes more difficult.
There is something weird everywhere here.
Mandrills, golden moss, unknown flowers and trees, yes-men, burial pits, sacrificial platforms, stone carvings of eight horses, and finally the small pool in front of you.
Sister Hong meant that it should be done without further delay. When the wound on my leg stopped bleeding, Sister Hong stood up and said, "Get ready, let's get into the water and swim out."
Standing by the pool hand in hand, she took a deep breath, turned around and warned me: "I've just kicked Yunfeng, you have to be brave and don't be afraid. Remember what I said before, right? We can all get out alive." "
I gritted my teeth and nodded: "I know, Sister Hong, let's fight!"
"Breathe in, take a deep breath."
I took a big breath and took a deep breath.
"I'll count from one to three. I'll start when I get to three. Keep in sync. The distance is not far. Hold it in one breath until the end. You have to hold on to me."
"one."
"two."
"three."
"Jump!"
Without hesitation, on the count of three, she and I jumped into the water almost simultaneously.
The water temperature was not as cold as in the underground river, but the visibility in the water was not high. I puffed up my cheeks and held my breath, kicked my legs wildly, and held on to Sister Hong tightly, asking her to take me swimming.
A few very small fish swam past me, and after diving for less than a minute, I vaguely saw many stone steps in the water, one by one.
The direction we swim is to follow the direction of the steps.
There were no aquatic plants underwater, so there was no need to worry about getting tangled up in the weeds, but something unexpected happened.
Because I was kicking my legs underwater, the bandaged thigh wound opened...
A lot of blood flowed continuously along the wound to the surrounding area.
Because of the smell of blood, a snakehead fish about a foot long was attracted from somewhere. The black fish is not big, but it looks like it has teeth.
Sister Hong looked back and saw the fish.
Her eyes were frightened, and she desperately dragged me forward with great strength.
Such violent movements are accompanied by a large consumption of oxygen in the lungs.
Soon I felt that I had reached my limit and my lungs felt uncomfortable.
Blood oozed out.
Then, I saw snakeheaded fish with teeth gathering around me.
They gathered together, followed the smell of blood, and finally targeted Sister Hong and me.
The school of fish gathered more and more and began to chase us!
Swimming along these underwater steps, at the critical moment, red dots of light appeared on the water surface in front, looking like torches.
"Gudu," I reached my limit, couldn't hold my breath, and took a big drink of water.
Pain came as a black fish bit me on the thigh.
Then, two...
Getting closer and closer to the water, Sister Hong was also attacked. She seemed to be going crazy, dragging me out of the water.
"Help...help!"
As soon as my head emerged, I gasped for air and shouted for help. A piranha bit me.
On the shore, torches shine.
Boss Sun and Boss Sun held torches and looked at Sister Hong and me in a daze.
"Xiaohong!"
"Yunfeng!"
The eldest brother and the third brother put down their torches without taking off their clothes. They jumped into the water with a splash and dragged me ashore.
There were several snakehead fish biting on my leg, and Sister Hong was the same. She also had a few snakehead fish bitten on her arm. It hurt just to look at it.
The third brother slapped his thigh fiercely, with a look of excitement on his face.
"Very good!"
