Chapter 57 Plum tree, cliff cave! [Seeking for further reading]
“Huang Can, your snake medicine doesn’t seem to work.”
“Brother, this is snake medicine, not an elixir. I told you already. , it only works for some snakes, some snakes are just not afraid of this smell, what can I do?”
“What you said before, but most of them”
“Don’t worry about these details. In fact, the venom of king snakes is not the most poisonous, but the amount of venom they release is very large. If you are bitten, if you deal with it in time, and use my snake medicine, you still have a good chance of survival... …”
...
Two people were building a raft by the pool, chatting one after another.
The efficiency is quite fast, it was completed in less than half an hour.
The raft pushed into the water and floated steadily on the water.
The test was successful.
Full sense of accomplishment.
The two stood on the raft, sprinkled some realgar powder on the raft, and then rowed the raft towards the cave.
It’s just...
Both of them seemed to have never rowed a boat before, so they didn’t know the direction well.
“I’ll go, brother, can you row?”
"Go this way, go this way."
"No, go that way..."
"Be careful, you are about to hit a rock."
……< br>
I was in a hurry, spinning around in the pool for a while, and then I slowly mastered some of the essentials.
Entering the cave, it was dark and very gloomy.
In the cave.
The humidity is very heavy, and water drips from the cave walls, like rain, drawing a bunch of circles on the water.
Huang Can sat at the front of the row paddling, and Chen Yang sat at the back of the row, using a flashlight to check the surroundings.
There are scattered bats hanging on the cave wall, all sleeping, and the bright light of the flashlight did not wake them up.
Apart from the sound of water dripping, there was only the sound of paddling.
The surrounding environment is terrifyingly quiet.
However, there was no danger along the way.
The raft followed the current for five or six hundred meters, and a bright light appeared in front of it.
Export.
After a while, the front suddenly became clear.
The exit is an earth slope. The raft is blocked by the earth slope, and the water flows from the bottom of the earth slope into the ground.
The two climbed up the slope and pulled the raft up.
At this time, there were two simple rafts placed on the slope.
Needless to say, most of them were left behind by Song Daneng and the others.
Chen Yang looked around. There were high cliffs behind him, or in other words, there were towering cliffs all around.
It looks like it should be a cavity area in the middle of the mountain.
It has a radius of about two hundred meters. When you look up, you can see a ray of sky. The cliff is covered with moss and vines.
The light is not dim, there is even sunlight coming through.
It was overgrown with weeds, and there were even two crooked plum trees with a few plums here and there.
Huang Can walked over, looked up, and picked two of them.
"Don't eat random things from the mountains."
Chen Yang reminded him that he was quite cautious.
"It's just a plum, what can happen?"
Huang Can looked indifferent, "Crimson red plum, can it be poisonous?"
As he spoke, he threw one to Chen Yang.
It is indeed a crisp red plum, but it grows in this place and does not see much sunlight, so the fruit color is not so bright.
Chen Yang glanced at it, didn't eat it, and threw it away.
A little too careful.
Huang Can rubbed the plums in his hands and was about to take a bite, but when he saw Chen Yang's actions, he couldn't take his mouth off.
Angrily, he also threw away the plums in his hand.
Be careful, that’s right.
After all, this is Rice Noodle Ditch.
The two separated and searched around. "Chen Yang, there are footprints here."
The place was not big, so he soon discovered it. Under a cliff, Huang Can shouted.
Not only on the ground, but also on the cliff.
The footprints are very fresh and should have been left not long ago.
Chen Yang followed the footprints and looked up.
You can vaguely see a big tree growing on the cliff forty or fifty meters above. There seems to be a hole behind the big tree.
After stepping back for a while and looking again, there is indeed a hole.
It is blocked by big trees and vines, and it is backed by light, so it is easy to be ignored.
Unknown vines wrapped around the big tree and hung down against the cliff, reaching the bottom of the cliff.
If nothing unexpected happens, the owner of these footprints climbed up with these vines.
Golden Bell Vine!
A vine-like plant.
Fujiko is thicker than an adult’s thumb.
Chen Yang stretched out his hand and pulled it, it was indeed very strong.
After experiencing the Polygonum multiflorum incident, Chen Yang had an instinctive resistance to these vines.
Although, this is not Polygonum multiflorum vine.
However, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.
Golden bell vine is also called multi-flowered wild boar vegetable, so named because wild boars eat it as food.
They are parasitic on trees, grow upward along the tree body, spread out at the top of the tree, forming a large net, wrapping the crown of the tree, and the flowers bloom in golden yellow, so they are called golden bell vines.
They reproduce very quickly, and saplings will be entangled and deformed by them, making it difficult to grow. Adult trees will be blocked from sunlight by them and gradually die, which can be regarded as a killer of the forest.
“Uncle Mighty!”
"Song Daneng!"
The two shouted several more times towards the cliff.
No response.
"Chiji..."
At this time, a familiar voice came from the cave.
Immediately, a nimble figure sprang out, jumped a few times on the tree, and slid down a tree vine very vigorously.
It is the Monkey King.
"Old Biao, what did you find inside?" Huang Can asked hurriedly with joy.
Chen Yang rolled his eyes. If it can understand what you are saying, then it is a ghost.
“叽叽……”
The Monkey King ignored Huang Can and just stepped forward to pull Chen Yang.
Immediately turned around again, climbed to the tree on the cliff with a few leaps, pointed at the entrance of the cave, and screamed at Chen Yang.
Obviously it was telling Chen Yang that it had found something in the cave.
"You watch from below, I'll go up and have a look."
Chen Yang said a word, then pulled the vine and climbed up.
"Be careful."
Huang Can shouted from below.
Chen Yang's skills are also quite strong. In just a few breaths, he had already climbed to the big tree.
This is also a plum tree.
The tree is covered with fuchsia vines, and the branches are already withering. It is obvious that their lifespan is not long.
"Chiji..."
The Monkey King has jumped into the hole on the cliff first.
The plum tree grows from a rock crevice next to the cave entrance. The trunk is as big as the mouth of a bowl, which is more than enough to bear the weight of one or two people.
Chen Yang moved to the entrance of the cave, jumped in.
The cave is not big, only one person high, the light is not very good, it is dark, and because of the humidity, there is a musty smell in the air.
Chen Yang turned on the flashlight and looked around. The ground was a little muddy and many messy footprints could be seen.
No more than ten meters away from him, there was a figure sitting against the cave wall.
Chen Yang felt nervous. He took a closer look and almost threw away the flashlight in fright.
Skull.
A skeleton that has turned into bones.
