Chapter 547 Alone in the Cave(3/3)
"Let's walk in for another ten minutes. If we still don't find anything, we'll go out!"
Lin Yu lowered his head and glanced at the time, knowing that Annie's worries were justified.
Annie nodded and followed Lin Yu inside.
After the two of them walked a few steps in, a very unpleasant rancid smell came from the air. Lin Yu turned his head and looked at the ravine on the left, and his expression suddenly changed. He saw four or five people lying in the ravine.
The skin and flesh of this corpse had just begun to rot, so you could see the frightened expressions on the faces of those people. It was obvious that they had experienced tremendous pain before they died.
"He, what's wrong?"
After noticing Lin Yu's eyes, Annie immediately turned her head and followed Lin Yu's eyes.
Lin Yu quickly covered her eyes and said to her in a deep voice, "You'd better not look at it!"
As he said this, Lin Yu pulled her body and asked her to turn her head to the right. But what Lin Yu didn't expect was that there were also five or six corpses with varying degrees of decay in the ravine on the right, emitting a huge stench.
Anne was so angry when she saw this scene that she immediately couldn't help it, and vomited out with a loud sound. After vomiting out all the wild boar meat she had eaten for lunch, she still bent over and vomited in big mouthfuls.
She has been a doctor for so many years and has seen many dead people, but after all, she is not a forensic doctor, so she has never seen such a rotting corpse. The strong visual impact and strong smell almost made her collapse.
Lin Yu looked back at her and frowned when he noticed the corpse in the ravine on the right. Then he walked behind Annie and patted her back gently, took out a silver needle and inserted it on the back of Annie's neck.
After pricking her for a while, Annie felt much better.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yu jumped directly into the ravine and picked at the bodies of the few people with the wooden stick in his hand. A more pungent stench instantly hit him, and Lin Yu immediately covered his nose with his sleeve.
Seeing that this group of people had nothing very useful except a compass, he pinched the compass out with gauze and was about to jump on. But just as he was about to jump on, he suddenly found that one of them was still intact.
His arms were actually covered with black dots!
Lin Yu's eyes opened suddenly, and he quickly used a wooden stick to lift the clothes off his arm. He saw several large bloody wounds on his arm, which were obviously scratched by some animal, and the bloody wounds were surrounded by
The skin is covered with red and black dots, which are obviously symptoms of a rash!
It's just because the person died and the body rotted away that it appears this color!
Lin Yu's heart suddenly beat wildly!
Could it be that this person is also infected with that unknown virus?!
Does that mean that this person probably died at the hands of a host carrying this virus?
Thinking of this, Lin Yu almost jumped with excitement. If the host carrying the virus could be known, then the senior would be saved!
Lin Yu immediately jumped out of the ravine. Anne was already vomiting and could not straighten her waist. She pleadingly said to Lin Yu, "Hey, let's go!"
She is really afraid that if she continues like this, she will become one of these people!
"Annie, we may have found the host of the virus!"
Lin Yu said to Annie excitedly.
As he spoke, he jumped directly into the ravine on the other side without waiting for Annie to answer. He picked through the clothes of these people with a wooden stick and found that the areas with intact skin among these people also had symptoms of rash, and they were probably infected.
Virus!
After Lin Yu jumped up again, Annie grabbed Lin Yu's arm, frowned and said to Lin Yu, "He, what did you just say?!"
"I said, we may have found the host!"
Lin Yu said to her excitedly, "The creatures that killed these people are most likely carriers of the virus. I also found symptoms of this virus in them!"
"real?!"
Annie was immediately excited. After all, the main purpose of their coming here was to find out the host of the virus. Unexpectedly, they accidentally found the host who might be carrying the virus while they were lost!
As she spoke, her face darkened, and she couldn't help but become worried, and said in a trembling voice, "But He, so many people have died in its hands, we...we..."
Although she didn't know what the host of the virus was, she could guess that this host definitely had super combat power. After all, so many people had died in its hands!
And there is another possibility, that is, there is more than one such creature, and it is very likely that it is a social animal, and then things will become serious!
"Annie, do you believe me?!"
Lin Yu grabbed Annie's arm and said seriously to her, "I promise you, as long as I am here, you will never be harmed in any way!"
As a man, it is natural to protect women. No matter what the host of the virus is, Lin Yu is confident that he can protect Annie.
Annie looked at Lin Yu's sincere eyes, with no ability to refuse at all, and she was also eager to find the host of the virus, not for the bonus, but mainly for the reputation of the American Medical Association, so she finally tried her best.
nodded.
After receiving Annie's affirmation, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking into the cave with Annie.
I saw that the vegetation inside became richer and richer as I walked in. The cave was covered with huge creeping vegetation, and huge vines covered with moss hung wantonly in the air.
At this time, Lin and Annie also heard several monkey calls, and it was obvious that the monkeys were hiding here just now.
Lin Yu couldn't help but clenched the torch in his hand and protected Annie behind him.
The monkeys seemed to have heard what Lin Yu and Annie were doing, and immediately jumped over along the vines with a loud shout, holding some rocks, fruits and other things in their hands and quickly threw them at Lin Yu.
Lin Yu pulled Annie tightly behind his back, then turned the torch in his hand into a shadow, opening everything the monkeys threw at him.
"what!"
Annie hid behind Lin Yu and looked at the group of monkeys. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she said in surprise, "Some of these monkeys have red eyes. I suspect that they are most likely carriers of that deadly virus!"
When they met these monkeys in the woods just now, Annie and the others were thrown so badly that they had no time to observe these monkeys. Now that she was hiding behind Lin Yu, she discovered this.
"But if these monkeys are hosts, does that mean they are the people they killed?!"
Anne said with some confusion, as if she thought it was impossible. After all, those people were all adults, and these monkeys were all medium-sized, so it was impossible for them to kill so many people!
Lin Yu was too tired to deal with these monkeys at this time and had no time to answer Annie's words, and suddenly there were many more monkeys on the vines!
It is very possible that this place is the nest of these monkeys!
Lin Yu knew that continuing like this was not an option, but he couldn't escape or move forward at this time. He was in a very awkward situation and could only desperately block the debris thrown by these monkeys.
"Hey, I have an idea!"
Anne took the opportunity to look around and found an oily substance oozing out from the vines. She immediately poked the torch in her hand onto the vines. The vines burned instantly, and the flames slowly climbed up the vines, and then
Another vine was ignited.
Anne quickly used this method to light several vines. Since the vines were covered with rocks and water, there was no need to worry about catching fire. Moreover, these vines burned very slowly. Many of them were burned directly, hanging down and falling below.
In the puddle.
When the monkeys saw this scene, they screamed loudly and ran back in fright. They saw a towering tree deep in the cave, with branches extending outside the cave. The monkeys rushed up and immediately followed.
They jumped out of the cave, clinging to tree branches, and then scattered in all directions.
Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, then took Annie's hand and quickly moved forward, away from the vines.
After they ran under the old man's tree, they found some porcelain bottles, jade pendants, silver ornaments and other things piled under the tree, and there was also a huge stone slab on the ground with some ancient characters engraved on it.
"This is the coffin board!"
Lin Yu's expression suddenly changed when he saw this huge stone slab, and he was sure that it was the coffin board on an ancient sarcophagus.
But he looked around and found no sarcophagus. He couldn't help but wonder who or what kind of creature could move such a large sarcophagus board.
"Hey, what's written on it?"
Annie asked doubtfully, then leaned forward to take a look.
"careful!"
Lin Yu's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly shouted to Annie.
Chapter completed!
