Chapter 284 Underground Strange Car
Zhou Wen's eyes were like two small searchlights, emitting two beams of light that shone straight into the dark underground passage. Although the main function of this skill was perspective, it was not difficult to see in the dark. It was just that the distance of the illumination was a bit short, and the perspective light could not reach too far.
The train-like sound in the darkness was not far from the exit of the passage. When Zhou Wen saw it, his face suddenly became a little strange.
There actually was a car in that dark underground passage, coming up from the bottom. However, it was not a train, but a strange stone and wood structure car.
The style of the car is very ancient, with a square carriage, a bit like the horse-drawn chariots in ancient times, but this car is not pulled by horses or any other creatures. At the front of the car is a human-shaped puppet. The puppet stands on the pedal of the front of the car, holding a crank arm with both hands, and its body moves up and down, pushing the stone crank wheel to turn in a very rhythmic manner.
As the wheel turned, the strange stone and wood structure car also went up along the stone steps. The stone wheel collided with the edge of the stone steps, making a clanging sound, and it moved at a not very fast speed.
Next to the puppet, there was a wooden pole with a stone lamp hanging on it. The light that Zhou Wen and Lu Yunxian had just seen was emitted from the stone lamp.
Apart from the puppet, there were no other creatures in the entire car, as if the puppet was driving the strange car.
The puppet was also strange. It looked like a human, but its face was a flat plate with no facial features carved on it. It looked very weird.
Zhou Wencai took a few glances and saw that the strange stone and wood cart had already driven to the entrance of the passage, and then slowly stopped.
Zhou Wen and Lu Yunxian both looked at the strange car warily, but after the strange car came out of the stone road, it stopped there and did not move. The puppet on it also seemed to have run out of spring, and it stopped there, maintaining the posture of pushing the wheel arm and not moving.
Lu Yunxian jumped up, but did not approach the car. He just wanted to jump up and see what was inside the strange car.
"Lu Ning!" After Lu Yunxian rose to a certain height, he looked into the truck bed and called out.
Zhou Wen also flew up and looked into the truck bed. He saw that there was only a woman lying inside, who seemed to be unconscious. Apart from that, there was nothing else. The truck bed was empty.
Zhou Wen might know that woman. She was Lu Ning who came with An Sheng. Zhou Wen had a very deep impression of her, especially her snow fox, which had strong ice power, which made Zhou Wen very envious.
"I'll go see if she's dead." Lu Yunxian said as he prepared to jump onto the strange car.
"Don't go yet." Zhou Wen always felt that the strange car was a little weird, so he stopped Lu Yunxian, used the Magic Star Wheel skill, and sucked into the car.
Lu Ning, who was unconscious in the truck bed, was immediately sucked out by him and flew towards Zhou Wen's palm.
With the previous experience of Liu Chengzhi, Zhou Wen became much more vigilant. He did not touch Lu Ning's body, but instead restrained his strength and let Lu Ning's body fall directly to the ground.
I don’t know if she was dead or not. She fell to the ground without any reaction and just lay there motionless.
Zhou Wenxian shone the transparent light on Lu Ning and found that her heart was still beating and her body functions seemed normal.
But what was strange was that there were many snake-like worms in her body, wriggling along her blood vessels, which looked extremely terrifying.
Zhou Wen now probably knew that the reason why Lu Ning was unconscious was probably because of the worms in her blood vessels.
Those insects look like snakes, but their bodies are very thin, like hair. They wriggle and move around in the blood vessels, and many of them even drill into the heart and other internal organs.
"She is still alive, and she seems to have no injuries on her body. Her heart is beating, but for some reason she is unconscious." Lu Yunxian said as he examined Lu Ning's body.
"Her raincoat is torn and can't withstand the bloody rain here. It's not convenient to treat her here. Let's take her back to the tent first. After she wakes up, ask her what happened inside." Seeing that the hair-like insects showed no signs of coming out, Zhou Wen asked Lu Yun to wrap Lu Ning with the rain cloth he brought and carry her out of the ruins.
Zhao Xin and the other two were quite surprised to see that Zhou Wen and Lu Yunxian came out unharmed and even brought someone back with them.
"Lu Ning! What happened to her?" Zhao Xin was shocked when he saw Lu Ning.
He knew how powerful Lu Ning was. Her Ice Qi Jue was considered top-notch in the epic level. With the help of many top-quality companion pets, there were not many people who could defeat Lu Ning in the epic level.
Now Lu Ning was brought back unconscious by Zhou Wen and others, which means the situation is probably very bad.
"What happened? How are Adjutant An and the others?" Zhao Xin asked.
"I don't know. When we arrived at the entrance of the underground passage, we saw her coming out. Now we can only wake her up first before we can find out what happened down there." Zhou Wen said.
"Let me try. I have a companion pet called Rejuvenation Ivy, which has good healing abilities." Zhao Xin said as he summoned a plant-type companion pet.
It was a emerald green vine that wrapped around Lu Ning's body like a snake. Its buds crawled onto Lu Ning's face, then stretched into her nostrils, mouth, and ears, secreting some liquid like clear water.
Those liquids have good therapeutic effects, and even seriously injured people can generally wake up temporarily.
However, Zhao Xin kept urging Hui Qingteng to secrete liquid, but he still couldn't wake Lu Ning up.
"Strange... If it's just an injury, even if it's a brain injury, the rejuvenation juice will be effective. Why doesn't she react at all? Could she have been hypnotized or some other energy skill?" Zhao Xin looked confused.
The others didn't have much healing ability either. You looked at me, I looked at you, and none of us had any good solutions.
"Don't let your companion pet waste its energy. Let it rest for a while. It will be useful later." Zhou Wen said to Zhao Xin.
"Master Wen, do you have a solution?" Zhao Xin hadn't known when he changed his tone and followed Lu Yunxian in calling him Master Wen.
"Let's give it a try. We'll give it a try." Zhou Wen said, and with a flip of his wrist, a strange power condensed and took shape in his hand, turning into a metal syringe.
Walking to Lu Ning's side, Zhou Wen stared at Lu Ning with his eyes like searchlights. At the same time, the syringe in his hand moved and pierced into Lu Ning's arm.
He did learn some knowledge about injecting drugs in school, but it was all the simplest knowledge, and only theory, and he had never put it into practice. Zhou Wen just wanted to give it a try to see if the Dark Doctor's venom could kill the strange insects in Lu Ning's body.
