As soon as I said that, I felt like I had slipped into my words. Looking at their dark expressions, I immediately changed the topic, "Why do you want to light a fire? Where did you get the firewood from? " It wasn't cold here, far from being heated by a fire. Furthermore, being heated in this place with a relatively high degree of isolation, I had a feeling that I would be suffocated to death the next second.

Ike shrugged, "These are not firewood, but intact, cut into round pieces. Because you can't see it because you dug into the bark, you didn't finish it, so you could use a small army knife to cut it. This is what we found on the way here, not far from here. This kind of wood is completely piled up, and we don't know why."

"Oh," I said.

"As for the reason for the fire," Ike paused, then pointed at the top of his head. "Look."

I looked up and nearly collapsed onto the ground.

Ike looked at me and laughed.

His laughter made me unable to raise my head. I raised my head to look and only then did I realize that the "snake" on it was not a snake but some wood rope that was close to rotting. If it was really built when it was built, it should have long been corroded to the point where there wouldn't be any residue left. "

"I don't know." Ike said bluntly, "Yes, these are ropes. I bet you saw a snake for the first time. " He was right, and I was embarrassed.

"That's not the point." Ike looked down at his watch. "It's coming."

Coming?

I didn't see anything, so I pricked up my ears and listened. The rustling sounds were not regular, and were magnified several times due to the echo.

F * ck!

Goosebumps had already erupted from the friction between the ground and the newcomer. I will never forget this sound.

Snakes!

Tiny, long lines that covered the sky and covered the earth came surging in like a tidal wave. Black lines twisted and swayed in the distance amidst the dim light. They were all densely packed together.

There was a tiny buzzing sound, and my scalp felt like it was going to explode.

"Interesting." Ike was still smiling at me.

I felt a rustling above my head. Carla's stiff concave neck.

Right above my head, a pair of yellow-green eyes locked onto me, not even ten centimeters away.

F * ck!

"Don't be afraid." The owner of those eyes and I were about to look at each other, Ike lazily said, "This is the reason why we lit the fire. Every day at this time, the snakes will come, and for the first time, we are at a disadvantage. However, we also discovered that they are afraid of fire, so they can only move four meters away from the fire in a straight line. "

I looked down at him and winced.

Ike was looking at me with a righteous expression, not concealing the fact that he had succeeded in his prank.

I spat in my heart and thought to myself that this foreigner was indeed not a good person.

"In five minutes at most, the beasts will be gone," said Ector firmly.

I slightly relaxed my mind, just in time to let out a breath of air, hair is a layer, the cold smooth touch appeared, my brain instantly shut down!

A sharp voice in my head stabs me, stabbing me in the scalp, and I feel my scalp go cold.

My eyes widened as my right hand reached for it.

That slippery feeling twisted and coiled around my hand, and my middle finger was immediately bitten so hard it almost went through.

The ice-cold sensation in my head made my movements slow. However, without any hesitation, I focused my attention on it. I subconsciously waved my hand forward, but I was unable to shake it off.

His vision became hazy.

I cursed under my breath and clenched my hands into fists. I tightly gripped the tail in my hands and tightly strangled the snake tattoo with my nails. With a strong pull, the nails dug into the snake meat!

I heard a scream, and again a heart-wrenching pain in my wrist. I grit my teeth and stick my hand directly into the crackling flames.

The smell of roasted meat permeated the air. The snake climbed up my arm as if it was crazy, its tail struggling desperately. The strength behind it was so strong that I almost couldn't hold it back, completely relying on my nails that were stuck inside the snake's body.

The animal had stopped struggling. I reached out with my left hand and pulled hard, ripping the burnt body and my arm apart. The pain was so deep that the skin seemed to be about to fall off with it.

The long pain was better than the short pain. I threw the thing into the fire with all my might, and I only had time to stretch my left and right hands out of the fire. The pain in my hands was worse than my head, and the instant I left the flames, the cold pain stunned me.

In the chaos, my feet weren't touching the ground, and my body didn't have any point of strength, but it seemed to float upwards. It was very comfortable as it slowly moved up and down with the wind.

"Hmm …" Hm? Dither?

When I became aware of it, my body slowly grew heavy, my legs hooked up to something, and my face was lying on something, warm.

My eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and my ears were very quiet. There was only the regular sound of a peep, and my body was shaking up and down in the rhythm.

I tried my best to raise my eyelids, but the scenery in front of me actually started to light up. First it was white light, then it became hazy. Everything started to become clear.

I was on Achilles' back, and Ike was carrying his bag.

Hm? I'm still alive?

As soon as I had digested this fact, I fell into a state of ecstasy.

I'm alive! I'm still alive!

His head was still dizzy and his hands were aching, but compared to the fact that he was still alive, it didn't matter.

Ike was the first to wake me up. I was on the ground.

Ike's face enlarged again.

"Wake up," I heard him shout.

I was filled with water and sat on the ground in exhaustion.

I heard my throat growl like a bellows. "I'm still alive?"

"Yeah," Ike didn't look surprised, but he was happier than I was. "There's no poison, and it's not that deep. We'll just have to disinfect it a little bit."

"Thank you."

"It's fine," Ike said, breaking away from his excitement. "The important thing is your right hand. We've already washed it with a lot of disinfectant water, but the burns are too severe, so you'll probably have to wear leather gloves in the future. They're full of burn scabs, and the blisters have already dried up your skin, mainly because there's no medicine, "he added." But your left arm is fine, so I just want to recover for two days. "

"Thank you." That's all I can say.

"No," said Al apologetically, "I was careless."

I thought back to that scene.

"But why aren't they afraid?" Ike rubbed his chin. "That doesn't make sense."

"What do you have on you?" a voice said.

Achilles was staring at me.

"Yes!" Ike clapped his hands. "Something in you must have attracted them. We're all unharmed, so the main point should be on you. "

I was extremely depressed.

However, when he thought about it carefully, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

"The Swiss Army knife." "I put it in my pants pocket."

"The sabers attracted them? I don't think so... " "It's not a knife," I said.

It was the liquid on top!

A hand moved beside my thigh, and the knife was taken away.

Ike leaned over to look at the knife in Achilles hand.

My head was no longer dizzy, but my hands were still aching.

Achilles had already ejected the blade.

"What is this?" "This black one."

"Corpse juice? "No, I don't know."

"It's a Chinese herbal medicine." Achilles said.

"?" My expression and Ike's.

"There's a rotten smell," Achilles said calmly, "but it can't hide the smell of the Chinese herbal medicine. It's the smell of Chinese herbal medicine."

"But the liquid came out of the coffin."

"Coffin fluid?" Ike guessed.

I was silent, and I had to say that the possibility was high. I didn't believe it like Achilles and Ike did. I had hidden the letter, so they were curious about the traces of the Chinese. But from my point of view, if you think about that Chinese font, it doesn't seem so unacceptable.

But all my vague conjectures will be overturned, if this is really a Chinese herbal medicine.

In Egypt, India, or all over the world, there are always medicinal herbs. Achilles couldn't tell if China was normal or not. Foreigners ate too much Western medicine.

I omitted the original reason and mentioned the rest of my conjectures to them.

"It's possible," Ike said, snatching the sabre, wiping it clean with water and gauze from his travel bag. He also took a clean gauze, poured it on Idol, wiped it with Idol, and then, with a sigh of relief, tossed the gauze far away and rubbed Idol on his hand.

"All right," Ike said.

I followed him, and when he moved, his big face could not hide the whole scene.

We walked along a stone path.

"You were unconscious for two days." "We've come a long way in the past two days, getting closer and closer to where we started."

"Where you came down from?" I repeated, looking at him in surprise.

"Yes." "We have a fixed point under our watches. The instrument is attached to the centimeter polymerization plate we filled in when we came down." He was even more surprised than I was. "I remember telling the other two about this. Why, didn't they tell you?"

I didn't say anything. I could only smile wryly.

Ike didn't know if he understood or not, so he changed the topic, "According to the markings, we will be out in half an hour. Take it easy, man. We still have time to play here for two days after we get out and bring the stuff up to the top. "

"Something?"

"Our target this time." Ike blinked. "You forget?"

"Indeed." I continued to bitterly smile. "I've already completely forgotten about it when I was walking to the back." He forgot the reason he came in and forgot his complacency when he came in.

"Achilles found it," Ike said, pointing to his travel bag. "I was in a coma like you."

I looked at Achilles, but the latter's eyes were empty. I didn't know what he was thinking.

"Keep your spirits up," Ike said. "I swear that you will be able to rest after you leave. If you don't delay any longer, your hands might still be able to save them."

"No hope." "Are you sure you didn't find the wrong people?"

"No," said Achilles.

"Hmm?"

"I brought a photo copy of the monolith inscriptions and compared it." he said simply.

"Oh!" I suddenly realized, "Smart."

"So be at ease," Ike said. "I'll treat you to all the curries you can get out here."

"Invisible tycoon?"

"Organization reimbursement."

I smiled knowingly.

Accius continued to look around, but no one knew what he was looking at.

As Ike had said, it was even smoother, and when I saw the little blue dot on my wrist coinciding with the little red dot, I almost cried with joy.

I don't know how they did it, but according to Ike, it was the same way they did it, and the way they did it was the same way.

Although we've arrived. But according to the time, he still had to wait until the middle of the night, when there was no one around before he could remove the Aggregate Board.

The moment I saw the moonlight, my heart was as cool as water. My mood was indescribably agitated. Everything that had happened seemed fake, even the slightly sunken sand seemed fake.

I breathed in the air greedily.

When he got back to the hotel, although he really wanted to fall asleep, he forced himself to take a shower. Achilles was the cleanest of the three of us, but he was also covered in dust. I was the most embarrassed. It felt like I had just come back from a fight in the dirt. The gauze over his head and hands startled the hotel manager.

I carefully avoided all the wounds and took a hot bath. He lay down on the bed and fell dead asleep the next second. He didn't wake up until the next night.

When he opened the curtain, the sun was already setting. Ike kept his promise and sent me a curry. Unlike what we ate back home, spicy and salty accounted for most of it, but it was delicious. During his time underground, he had not eaten a proper meal, and when he went alone, he had not even eaten a single meal.

The bird can fade from my mouth, let alone salty spicy part, even if I eat all of it happily.

Curry beef and bread, I almost stormed out of this meal, his whole body like a pig, eat to the point of collapse in bed playing mobile phone, this kind of happiness is hard to come by, especially to cherish. I thought as I read the novel.

But the bigger surprise was yet to come.

After two days of eating and sleeping, Ike came back with the news that "an Asian couple had been found under the pyramid and taken to the hospital. Who do you think those two people are? "

My eyes were instantly wet.
