In the end, Aning was the first to react and said calmly: "Your snake repellent powder probably won't work, otherwise the big snake won't chase us."
"Sister, please use your brain and think about it," Lu Yao pointed at the backpacks of several people, "I put the snake repelling powder for you without you knowing, how much do you think I can put in it?" If this thing can really protect against such a big snake, a pheasant's neck shouldn't even dare to sneak up on you."
Pan Zi also said: "Yes, the drug that can confuse a cat can also confuse an elephant. It's just a matter of dosage."
The fat man looked at Lu Yao with a pale face, "How much will it take to prevent the pheasant from attacking us? One person and one backpack?"
Although Lu Yao really has these things, how can he explain that you took out five packages of the same size from a backpack of the same size and there is sub-space in the bag.
"You really dare to think that I must have these too." Lu Yao looked at the stream at his feet and felt that the water flow had accelerated a lot. "Keep walking, something to prevent snakes will appear soon. .”
Several people were confused by what he said, but seeing his pace speeding up, they all sped up to keep up with him. Only the fat man was panting as he walked.
Soon the water flow in front changed. It turned out to be a downward slope. All the streams on the ground flowed down the slope. Several people waded down the stream carefully.
Ahead turned out to be a dark swamp with sparse trees. Bubbles would bubble up and break in the swamp from time to time. About two hundred meters behind, there was a lush aquatic rainforest, as if there was a dividing line. On one side the trees are lush and on the other side they are withered.
There are scattered broken stone walls in the swamp. There is a huge stone on the edge of the swamp. It is carved with complex decorative patterns. There seems to be a very huge shadow under the water. It seems that there are many buildings below. .
The broken stone walls in the swamp seemed to be arranged according to a pattern, continuing into the dense forest inside the swamp.
The fat man looked at the stone wall on the water with a surprised look on his face, "Oh my God! Could this be the ruins of the West Queen Mother Palace?"
Wuxie jumped to the stone and looked at it, "It's almost the same. The lines on this stone are very old. They should be part of the underwater statues. The stone carvings in the water may be the statues on the city defense buildings. The main thing is Its function should be to provide a moral deterrent to envoys from various countries."
The fat man also became energetic at this time, "That's right, the Queen Mother of the West is definitely the spiritual leader of the Western Region, and her palace will never be shabby."
Pan Zi also sighed: "This is too spectacular! But why did the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West end up in the water?"
The fat man guessed wildly: "Is it possible that after the collapse of the Western Queen Mother Kingdom, the palace was abandoned? Over time, the drainage system collapsed, groundwater surged, and thousands of years of rain poured in, the palace was submerged in the water. Got off."
However, Pan Zi and Wu Xie agreed with Fatty's inference. Only Lu Yao and An Ning were relatively calm.
"Let me correct you. In the Kingdom of the Western Queen, this should be only the outermost part of the City of the Western Queen. As for the Palace of the Western Queen, it should not be flooded."
Aning nodded, "Yes, the area of this basin is not small. We will find these ruins here. It seems that the Western Queen Mother Kingdom in its heyday was really the overlord of the Western Regions. But why do you think so? Will the Huixi Queen Mother Palace be underwater?”
Of course this is just speculation. Anyway, these people were not wearing diving equipment when they went in.
"I can't say whether it's underwater. At least she won't let her palace be submerged. After all, she's not dead."
"Wait a minute!" Fatty looked at Lu Yao in surprise, "Did you just say the wrong thing?"
"Which sentence?"
"No longer alive?"
"Oh, well," Lu Yao looked up at the sky, acting like a master from this world, "Maybe she is still alive."
"Damn it! How many thousand years of life can you expect?" The fat man looked excited. Thinking about it, a queen who has lived for thousands of years must have so many treasures.
Pan Zi didn't believe that Queen Mother Xi might be alive at all. He was the most pragmatic. It was getting late now, so he might as well camp here and rest for one night before continuing his journey.
After soaking in the water for a day, my feet turned white. After taking off my shoes, I could still see small bugs sucking blood. The area of this stone is not small. Pan Zi returned to the slope with many branches on it and lit a bonfire to keep warm. .
Lu Yao and the system bought a few ordinary one-piece raincoats. There are a lot of snakes here, and a small amount of snake repellent powder will not be useful at all. It might even scare the snakes and let them find a way to track a few people. The best way is to learn from Chen Wenjin and apply mud on your clothes.
When he handed the raincoat to the fat man, the fat man teased him, saying that he had never seen anyone carrying a raincoat into the desert.
Lu Yao countered that he had never seen a tropical rain forest in the desert.
If I remember correctly, Chen Wenjin came to find me when we were in the swamp, and then the little brother followed Chen Wenjin and left.
Taking advantage of the abundant supplies in hand, several people quickly filled their stomachs. After eating, they began to feel sleepy. Pan Zi used a few raincoats to build a simple shelter and came out. Several people shrank in and almost closed their eyes. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
This time it was Lu Yao who came to watch the night, and he was in the best condition now. Even Zhang Qilin was in dire straits after a day of running for his life.
Lu Yao sprinkled insect repellent powder around. There were many smaller bugs in the swamp. When bitten, there would be a mouthful of blood. He did not dare to put the snake repellent powder. With the IQ of a pheasant neck, if he did, he would be like a pheasant. Neck says, here we are.
When practicing, time always passes quickly. By the time Lu Yao finished practicing, it was already midnight, it started to rain lightly again, and no one else had woken up yet.
Seeing that Lu Yao was awake, Jin Jin, who was working the night shift for him, consciously climbed into Lu Yao's hat, found a comfortable position and closed his eyes.
A snake's head emerged from the swamp. The snake looked at Lu Yao, leaning on his backpack with his eyes closed, and swaggering out of the swamp. The target turned out to be an innocent sleeping bag.
Several snakes appeared one after another. It seemed that these snakes had different goals. Two of them crawled towards Aning's sleeping bag, and one crawled towards the little brother's sleeping bag.
Unfortunately, the snake that crawled toward Wu Xie's sleeping bag suddenly stopped moving, as if it had been killed silently by something.
