Ye Xiao stood aside, sniffing lightly with the tip of his nose, this scent is a bit strange!
……
Chapter 211: Mutant Sandthorn
This fragrance even overwhelmed Wen Xiangyu's breath, not only Ye Xiao, but also Professor Zhou and the others could smell it.
At this time, everyone's hearts were shrouded in the shadow of death, and no one cared about the fragrance.
Mu Li boldly stepped forward to check the corpse, but it seemed that he didn't find any wounds except for his complexion. Mu Li couldn't help frowning, "Professor Zhou, this, can't it be bewitched?"
Professor Zhou's heart skipped a beat, and his face was serious: "Impossible! We all came down at the same time. If we were infected by evil spirits, why are we all fine? Everyone, hurry up and check to see if it was bitten by a snake or insect."
Hearing what Professor Zhou said, all the members of the archaeological team searched around.
The audience in front of the screen also began to get nervous.
"I don't think so. Didn't Ye say that he brought Wen Xiangyu with him when he first came in? How could there be poisonous snakes?"
"That's not necessarily the case. There were still a few people in Li Ye when that man died, but then again, the people next to him are all fine, why is it just him..."
"Shouldn't it be cursed here?"
"Don't talk nonsense, trust the science."
"Let me tell you a joke, the end of the universe is science!"
There were different opinions in the live broadcast room, and the atmosphere at the scene was also very tense. Ye Xiao squatted down and carefully inspected the corpse. There were no wounds on his body, and the exposed skin was not damaged.
This is strange.
Ye Xiao turned his head and inadvertently saw a plant next to the corpse, and couldn't help but understand.
At this time, Professor Zhou and the others searched everywhere, but they couldn't find anything here, let alone a snake or even a bigger worm.
"Professor Zhou, I don't think there will be snakes and insects here. This kind of place is not suitable for them to survive."
"That's right. Generally, snakes and insects must appear in groups. It's impossible to just this one."
"I think it's better to be more vigilant. Let's get out first. What if there is something ahead?"
"How about exiting after we're all here!"
"Then what if someone dies again? Isn't there still a garrison outside, why don't we just wait for them to join us!"
"Enough!" Seeing that they were about to quarrel, Professor Zhou snapped it off, "What time is it still quarreling!"
At this moment, Ye Xiao pulled out the ancient black gold knife, and stabbed it deep into the ground next to the corpse!
"Crack!"
A muffled sound woke everyone up. Professor Zhou was a little stunned, and turned to look at Ye Xiao, "Xiaoye, who is this?"
Ye Xiao stood up, pulled out the ancient black gold knife, and shook it lightly, the red liquid slid down the blade.
Everyone was taken aback, what is Ye Xiao doing?
Ye Xiao shook his head, "It can't be the evil spirit, it's this."
Ye Xiao pointed to the protrusion next to the corpse, "Look."
Everyone gathered around, under the light of the flashlight, everyone was stunned, "This is?"
"Sand thorns!"
Ye Xiao's explanation surprised Professor Zhou and others.
There are indeed a few thorny branches clinging to the ground next to the corpse, which is not easy to find unless you look carefully.
Ye Xiao had already cut it by the roots, and the blooming flowers withered quickly, shrinking into dead branches visible to the naked eye.
Quickly refresh the screen in the live broadcast room!
"I have improved my knowledge. I want to tell Papa Ma that the sand thorns he planted can kill people."
"Impossible, the sand thorn is just a plant, and the man just now had no wounds, how to kill him?"
"Ye Dao, it's time to answer, let's teach them a lesson!"
"One hundred thousand why plants can kill people? Ye Dao, have you watched too many suspense dramas?"
At this time, everyone in the tomb was also puzzled. Sand thorns were just the most common plants in the desert, so how could they become the culprit?
Miao Feng was about to approach but Ye Xiao pulled him back, "Don't approach!"
He froze immediately and quickly backed away.
Ye Xiao added: "Sandthorn is a unique plant in the desert. Its rhizomes have a strong water storage effect, and most sand control projects use this plant.
The thorns of sand thorns will penetrate deeply into the sand to absorb water, so they can survive in arid deserts, but these are all in a sunny environment in the desert.
It is now growing in this mausoleum, which means that it can meet its living conditions, and even... the sand thorns have mutated! "
As soon as Ye Xiao finished speaking, Miao Feng said suspiciously: "Then, this is also a good plant. It is non-toxic, so how could it kill people?"
Miao Feng's words represent the opinions of most people. Since it's just a plant, what's so scary?
Ye Xiao nodded, "The blame is here. These sand thorns are blooming, and the fragrance they emit is poisonous!"
Hearing this, everyone dispersed with a bang, and hurriedly covered their mouths and noses, lest they be confused by the fragrance of flowers.
And the audience is suddenly enlightened!
"It turned out to be a biochemical weapon! These days, plant mutations can kill people. I suspect that Ye Piao is telling us to protect the environment in disguise!"
"Ye Dao is mighty, but Ye Dao can always find out the truth, amazing!"
"Let's not say that Ye is an expert!"
Seeing that Professor Zhou and the others were so nervous, Ye Xiao quickly explained: "It's all right now, I have cut off the rhizome, and the flowers will not emit fragrance when they wither."
"Then why we all inhaled the fragrance, only he died?" Miao Feng was puzzled.
Ye Xiao nodded, "Good question, look at the soles of his feet."
Miao Feng squatted down to check, and found a thorn of sand thorns on the sole of the shoe, which penetrated deeply into the sole of the foot. Only when he took off the shoe did he realize that a red spot had been pierced on the sole of the foot.
"The sand thorn mutated, and he stepped on it unintentionally, causing the toxin to invade. That's why he died in a short time. After that, everyone be careful where you step, and don't touch the sand thorn when you see it."
When the topic changed, Ye Xiao frowned, "I just don't know why the sand thorns mutated."
Ye Xiao's explanation made everyone feel relieved, but this is the tomb, and nothing happened, they were already extremely careful, but they still got caught.
Professor Zhou immediately reminded them: "Everyone, look and see if there are any sand thorns left."
The members of the archaeological team started to get busy, Ye Xiao would be leisurely now, looking around, the tomb was pitch black, as if an invisible beast was staring at the abyss, opening its mouth to devour them.
At this time, Professor Zhou turned to look at Ye Xiao, "Xiao Ye, you said there might be any unknown dangers in this tomb besides sand and thorns, we should prepare early."
Ye Xiao: "..."
Everyone in front of the screen laughed like crazy.
"After Ye Dao was recruited, he became a military advisor."
"Ye Dao said that this is a proposition, how can I answer it politely?"
"Going to the tomb is an open-book exam for Ye Dao, right? Ye Dao, you can just say it openly, otherwise Professor Zhou's heart can't stand it!"
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room became cheerful again.
Ye Xiao pondered and said: "It is said that Genghis Khan's tomb can't be found everywhere, and he has been hiding for so many years. Presumably, this brave and skilled warrior hates being disturbed the most. Therefore, we should be careful in the future."
Ye Xiao played Tai Chi, but Professor Zhou looked at him meaningfully, Ye Xiao was helpless, he really never came!
Chapter 212 Insect Swarm Attacks
Fortunately, Professor Zhou didn't go any further. At this moment, Miao Feng exclaimed, "Look, there's a whole wall here!"
He covered his mouth and nose while yelling, and kept backing away, his eyes full of shock.
I saw that the whole tomb wall in front of me was covered with sand thorns, and the sharp thorns on the branches seemed to convey a message-don't get close to strangers!
The closer it is, the stronger the fragrance is, and the thorns are covered with huge flowers, which are gorgeous and flamboyant, and the fragrance is overflowing, and the beauty is suffocating.
It has to be said that this breathtaking beauty is indeed undeniable, but thinking that this thing is poisonous, everyone retreats subconsciously.
I saw Professor Fu approaching, just took out the dagger to take a sample, but was stopped by Ye Xiao.
"Don't! Professor Fu, if you take the initiative to solicit, it will irritate them, so don't do it!"
Hearing that, Old Professor Zhou also reminded him: "Forget it, take a picture so that you don't get caught in the fire."
Life is important, Professor Fu nodded and prepared to take a photo. If this kind of sand thorn that releases toxins is handed over to botanists, they will definitely be discovered, but it is a pity right now.
Professor Fu approached the wall, and pointed the camera at the flowers on the wall. As soon as he pressed the shutter, he saw those flowers shrink suddenly.
Professor Fu was stunned: "What's the situation?"
The sand thorns wrapped around the entire wall, and were rapidly withering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon only branches were left hanging on the wall.
Ye Xiao glanced at the ground and suddenly realized.
"It should be that the knife just cut off their roots. You see, the branches of these sandthorns extend from the ground to the wall. The one that killed the professor just now is their main root!!"
The people understood.
Ye Xiao didn't expect that the sand thorns would be wiped out so easily.
Just as he was thinking, Professor Fu squinted his eyes and looked at the wall. There seemed to be a movement on the wall behind the spikes. He thought he was being dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes, suddenly shocked.
"Professor Zhou, look, they are moving, they are alive!"
When Professor Fu shouted, the live broadcast room suddenly boiled:
"Damn! This tomb is not movable, is it? Why are there so many living things!"
"Please, please, it won't mutate into a spike monster, right? I've already imagined that bloody scene!"
"Barrage body protection, everyone, give me some strength!"
"I'm really looking forward to it. I don't know if the sandthorn will open its bloody mouth like a flytrap after it mutates!"
"Wow, you upstairs are so perverted!"
Netizens have speculated about what will become here. After all, it is just a plant. Even if it withers, what kind of lethality can it have?
At this time, Professor Fu's pupils tightened, and when Old Professor Zhou heard what he said, he immediately swept the flashlight over.
