Chapter 31 Extreme Heat, Gar Crocodile
Jiang Si was a little surprised by Qin Shen's big reaction.
Jiang Linhai froze in place. Jiang Si stepped forward to help him and handed the medicine to Qin Shen. "If you feel the wound is itchy and uncomfortable, change it in time. Don't be stubborn."
Qin Shen nodded and took it, saying politely and distantly, "Okay."
The sun was at its highest point, and they stayed at the edge of the cave, like a piece of meat about to melt in the heat.
The millipedes squeezed deeper into the cave, and the smaller millipedes couldn't squeeze in and their backs were cracked.
Because of the pain, the smell emitted by the scent glands becomes even worse.
Niuniu covered her nose tightly and asked Lu Zhifeng: "Dad, can't we think of a way to get out? I'm almost dying of the stench."
Everyone was almost dying of the stench.
But the radiation from the sun is more terrible than sulfuric acid. It can melt the steel in cars. They will surely die if they go out.
Lu Zhifeng turned on the kettle and moistened her face with the towel before saying, "Just bear with it a little longer. You'll be able to go home soon."
Niuniu is much more sensible than her peers, "Yeah."
Shen Baoying said, "It would be great if a scientist could invent clothing that is resistant to the sun."
Jiang Linhai laughed at her naiveté: "Without the mass production of electricity, even if scientists invented it, it would probably only be on his body. How could we possibly have it?"
When Jiang Si heard their words, he fell into a brief memory.
In the previous life, when the second Sunday occurred.
The Northern Base does have clothing that can protect against solar radiation, but that kind of clothing can only be worn by the upper class.
These lowly people who have no skills risk their lives even to eat, and will be cursed fiercely at the mere sight of them.
The day lasted for fifteen hours and finally it was dark.
Everyone drank up the water they brought with them.
When night falls, spiders also return to the trees and watch eagerly.
Jiang Si looked at Qin Shen, whose face was a little pale, and asked, "How are we going to lure out the millipede now?"
Qin Shen took out three potatoes from his arms, which were the food Jiang Si had given him before.
"This will do."
Jiang Si was surprised. He thought he had a small appetite, but he didn't expect that he left a potato for every meal in order to lure out the millipede.
If he asked, Jiang Si would give him more food.
Lu Zhifeng carried Niuniu on his back and tied her up with a rope. "Then how can we cooperate with you?"
Qin Shen stood at the corner of the cave entrance and said to everyone, "Just stand next to me."
Everyone stood over, and Qin Shen cut the potatoes into small pieces and threw them at the millipede.
The millipedes huddled together in fear and waited for a while. Then they stretched out their tentacles, as if they could smell the aroma of potatoes. The millipede closest to the potatoes tentatively coiled around the potato and brought it to its mouth.
After taking a bite, the millipedes received the signal that the potato was delicious and began to wriggle around in search of it.
The scene looked scary, but as Qin Shen scattered the potato pieces, it looked a bit... like feeding chickens.
Under Qin Shen's guidance, the millipedes lined up and slowly poured out of the cave, broke through the fire line, and touched the spider web.
The spiders instantly awakened their hunting instincts and moved quickly towards the millipede.
The millipede thought he could get some delicious potatoes by queuing up, but was suddenly bitten by a spider.
The spiders also spit out a lot of spider silk to wrap them all up and eat them.
Millipedes are docile in nature, but even rabbits can bite when they are cornered.
He struggled to break free from the spider web and immediately attacked the spider.
Spiders can climb trees, and so can millipedes. They move faster than spiders, and spider groups tend to bully the weak and fear the strong.
Seeing that the situation was not right and he could not defeat the millipede, he shot spider silk in all directions and fled.
Many millipedes died from the spider's poison. Niuniu said with a bit of heartache: "They are so pitiful."
He was living well in the cave, but was bitten to death by a spider for eating a potato.
Lu Zhifeng sighed and thought to himself: The millipedes are not pitiful, they are the ones who are pitiful.
But he coaxed Niuniu, trying his best to protect her remaining innocence in the apocalypse: "At least they ate potatoes, so they died without regrets."
The millipedes drove away the spiders and were about to return to the cave.
Everyone wanted to leave immediately, but in the empty cave, there was a splash, and something seemed to jump up, scaring the remaining millipedes in the cave and making them roll up like tires.
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
They just heard the clear sound of water.
There is water in this cave!
Does Qin Shen know?
Everyone looked at Qin Shen, who shook his head: "Potatoes are more delicious. This is the first time we've brought out so many millipedes."
No wonder.
If Qin Shen had deliberately concealed the fact that there was water here, he would not have brought them here.
There is water in the cave, which is a great joy.
No wonder there are so many millipedes gathered here.
Lu Zhifeng quickly asked Shen Baoying: “Sister-in-law, are there any potatoes left?”
In order to get water, all the millipedes in the cave must be led out.
Shen Baoying rummaged through her bag, and the others also rummaged through their bags: "There are a few more."
Everyone looked at Qin Shen again. He was experienced. "Is this enough? These?"
Qin Shen took the potato and said calmly, "You'll know after trying it."
Yes, give it a try. If it’s not enough this time, you’ll have a better idea next time.
He didn't throw it this time. Instead, he went to the side, picked up a longer branch, and naturally extended his hand to Jiang Si: "Rope."
Jiang Si took it out of her bag and handed it to him.
Tying the potatoes with a rope, Qin Shen raised the stick like a professional fisherman.
The millipedes lined up obediently, moved their thousand feet in unison, stretched their heads and were led out of the cave by Qin Shen.
Qin Shen turned around and looked at them: "You go get some water first, I'll lead them away a little."
Qin Shen is too righteous.
Jiang Linhai immediately patted his chest and said, "Xiao Shen, be sure to pay attention to safety. We'll get your share of water for you."
Qin Shen nodded and left.
Jiang Si looked at his back. If it weren't for the large group of terrifying millipedes following him, he would have seemed quite leisurely.
Everyone quickly raised their torches and bravely went deeper into the cave.
After turning a corner, "plop~"
Hearing the sound of splashing water, everyone's heart felt clear and cool in an instant.
Jiang Si became even more alert. There were clearly ferocious species in the water, and their jumping would cause such a huge splash.
After walking forward for more than ten meters, a pool as deep as a wellhead gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.
Niuniu exclaimed excitedly: "Dad, there's water! Lots of water!"
Everyone was very happy and prepared to go forward to get water.
Jiang Si stood in front of everyone and said, "Let's try throwing a stone first."
Everyone picked up stones and threw them into the pond.
The moment the stone falls into the water.
A huge, ferocious fish with sharp teeth jumped more than one meter high and appeared in everyone's sight.
In an instant, everyone's heart sank.
Is this a mutated crocodile?
Oh my god, how can it be so big!
