Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 740 Is he shooting a short video or live streaming?
"Xiaohua misunderstood me!"

The blind man finally managed to utter only this sentence!
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, that thing is already approaching within two kilometers, hurry up if you don't want to die."

Hu Ming said unhappily.

“Two kilometers!”

Liu Sang sneered inwardly again. Two kilometers happened to be within his hearing range, but at this moment, he did not catch any movement at all.

Just as he opened his mouth to say something, Liu Sang's face suddenly changed.

Liu Sang rushed to the underground river in one step, not caring about his image or not, and started digging directly.

Seeing this, everyone shook their heads secretly.

These people are all old hands with clear minds. Most of the people in the Nine Gates, especially the backbone of their generation, grew up listening to the legendary stories of the Second Master of the Hong Family.

Hu Ming's abnormal hearing is no secret. Combined with what Liu Sang is good at, it is easy to know what Liu Sang, a kid born in 93, is thinking.

It's just that I'm not convinced.

The silt by the river was easy to dig, and in a short time, the group had buried themselves completely in the mud, covering their mouths and noses.

A few really curious guys put on goggles at Hu Ming's suggestion and exposed their eyes to the mud.

Soon, under the illumination of the light on the ground, a faint sound was heard coming closer and closer from the dark passage ahead.

An unknown object as dark and thick as a cloud slowly floated over.

The cloud-like thing is located at the polar region, almost pressing down on the ground.

Soon, the dark clouds, influenced by the air currents, came to the ground where everyone had just rested.

scoff~~~
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the object on the ground made a creepy corrosion sound as soon as it touched it. The traces left after the meal were almost completely wiped out in the blink of an eye under the cover of the clouds!
Although I don't know what this thing is, its lethality is comparable to that of strong acids and alkalis!
Once a person touches this thing, he will turn into a pile of bones, just as Hu Ming said!

Seeing the clouds approaching the river bank where they were, everyone tried to squeeze their bodies further down into the mud.

The moment the cloud floated directly above me, I felt a slight tingling sensation on my skin even through the thick mud.

Everyone's face changed. They knew that the corrosive substances in the clouds were slowly merging into the mud, indirectly destroying their bodies.

Fortunately, the cloud was not very large, and although it was not moving fast, it had drifted away in less than a minute.

Before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, another similar cloud floated over from not far away.

Suddenly, everyone's face turned green.

Isn't this damn thing just one flower?
"What are you standing there for? There is a certain amount of time between two clouds. Change the mud and breathe. Remember, don't breathe when the clouds are floating on your face, or your lungs will rot."

Hu Ming's reminder sounded at the right time.

"Master Ming, please tell us the truth, how many of these damn things are there?"

Someone with quick hands and feet asked while changing the mud.

"Thirty-two flowers... Anyway, we have to bear the consequences. Don't even think about getting a good rest tonight."

Hu Ming grinned.

There was no time to explain more, the second flower was already in sight...

Constantly changing the mud is a physically demanding job, and constantly holding your breath is a test of your lung capacity. Similarly, staying calm when facing such a deadly crisis is even more difficult.

By the time the thirty-two-odd clouds had drifted away, it was already the second half of the night.

Although the silt has blocked the erosion of corrosive clouds to the greatest extent possible, the trace amounts of toxic substances integrated into the silt still caused considerable harm to everyone.

Almost everyone's skin had turned red, indicating corrosion. Fortunately, none of the injuries were serious and no unlucky person had their skin melted off.

Taking a deep breath of non-toxic air, Hu Ming ignored the mud all over his body, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and relieved the slight burning sensation in his lungs. Under such a thick cloud, any protective measures were slightly powerless, and a gas mask was not necessarily better than holding your breath, and it could not completely prevent the toxic substances from corroding the human body.

It was a great blessing to have only minor discomfort.

The clay dolls climbed up from the river one after another, fell to the ground and gasped for breath. At this time, no one cared about their own miserable appearance.

The greatest comfort is to be able to save a life.

"..Hu Ming, why do I feel like there's something wrong with this mud?"

The blind man rubbed his butt on the ground, frowned, and realized something was wrong.

"Although it's incredible, the underground river mud in this environment really nourishes a large number of blood-sucking leeches!"

Hu Ming scratched his head, indicating that this was not a blind man's illusion.

"..."

The blind man understood, and his hair stood on end. He jumped up from the ground and jumped into the river to wash the mud off his body.

The others were a little slow to react, but they also understood what Hu Ming meant. They all let out strange cries and jumped into the water like dumplings.

Leeches are creatures that have a special characteristic: their mouths contain neurotoxins that are enough to numb the pain of any creature.

in other words…

"Damn, my body is covered with these little things, even my ass! I am different from that fat guy. I am in my prime, I can't let myself be wasted like this!"

The blind man's face really turned green this time.

Blood-sucking leeches do not have the sense of shame that humans have. They do not care what part of the body the blood comes from when they suck it.

Others also noticed this and began to wail.

Man, no one would not care about this.

Looking at Hu Ming and the young man who were slowly and leisurely cleaning the silt in the river, everyone was extremely envious and jealous.

Precious blood is the best way to repel insects and ward off evil spirits.

Even though leeches are not insects, they dare not get close to the two of them under the threat of the precious blood.

"…Where's the seasoning packet? The seasoning packet we use to season the compressed biscuits?"

I remember that leeches are most afraid of salt, so most of the seasoning packets contain salt and pepper!
A light bulb suddenly flashed across the clever little Liu Sang's head.

"promise!"

Hu Ming was shocked, but out of humanitarian concern, he silently threw a few packets to Liu Sang.

Liu Sang was still young and in imminent danger, so he had no time to think about why Hu Ming was suddenly so friendly to him. He tore open the package and sprinkled the seasoning on the leeches crawling all over his body, starting with the sensitive parts.

next moment.
“Ahhhhh!!!”

Liu Sang’s face was distorted, looking more evil than a ghost. He fell to the ground and twitched.

He forgot one thing. The seasoning package was five-spice and spicy. It contained a lot of salt, which could kill leeches instantly, but...
Sprinkle salt and pepper on the bloody wound
Tsk! Poor spicy kid!
"My two masters, where did you find this top-notch friend?"

"Is he shooting a short video or live streaming? I want to give him a double-click of "666", or even a rocket... This is more pleasing to the eye than the old man's secret hamburger..."

"Before we, the Bai family, attached ourselves to the Wu family, we made a living on Dongting Lake for generations, and we encountered leeches quite a few times."

"Don't you just need to boil the water to about 40 degrees to remove all the dirt? It's just like taking a hot bath, very comfortable."

"This kid doesn't seem very smart."

Behind Wu Erbai, a member of the Bai family scratched his head and looked at Liu Sang who was rolling and twitching on the ground like an idiot!
