The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Xiao Lou has long heard that there is a big temperature difference between day and night in the desert, but he never thought that the temperature at night would be so low, similar to the snowy days in the cold winter months in the north.When they entered the final stage of the Double King's Chamber, they were wearing summer clothes. In the low temperature environment of minus 20 degrees, they might be frozen to death.

Yu Hanjiang looked at Xiao Lou: "Can Bai Juyi's charcoal fire be used?"

Xiao Lou said helplessly: "The charcoal fire can only last for 3 hours. Moreover, my compass card is useless, so I can't make a stove and put the charcoal fire in the tent. If I put it on the sand in the open air, I can't keep warm."

Tang Ci thought of an idea and said, "My mecha card may be useful."

After he finished speaking, he summoned five combat mechas. Tang Ci once used these mechas to cover his teammates in Zhou Chang's secret room in the "Tomb of the Headless General" and endured the high temperature of the steamer hell.This mecha is made of special metal, so it is naturally not afraid of charcoal fire.

Tang Ci removed the head of the mecha and handed it to Xiao Lou: "Put the charcoal fire inside, it can be used as a temporary heater."

Xiao Lou happily took over the metal mecha, put charcoal fire in it to make five heaters, and distributed them to his teammates.With this heater, at least you don't have to worry about freezing to death at night.Shao Qingge suggested again: "Didn't we each be given a set of ancient clothes in the ancient secret room? If it's cold at night, we can put on that layer of clothes."

There are several layers of ancient costumes inside and out. Although it is troublesome to wear, the function of keeping out the cold is indeed much better than short-sleeved shorts.

Ye Qi didn't care that his clothes were long red dresses, and he was sneezing from the cold, after hearing Shao Qingge's words, he quickly took out the card and changed into an ancient costume to put on his body.

Lu Jiuchuan looked him up and down, with a half-smile: "Xiaoye's women's attire is pretty pretty."

Ye Qi coughed lightly, and said with a blushing face, "Saving your life is the most important thing, and your image can be ignored."

Others also put on their clothes one after another. Yu Hanjiang said: "Everyone will watch the night in batches tonight, so as not to have nocturnal animals attacking us. Xiao Lou and I will watch from now until 4 o'clock in the morning."

Lu Jiuchuan said: "Then I will be with Xiao Tang from 4 o'clock to 7 o'clock."

Just as Shao Qingge was about to open his mouth to join, Yu Hanjiang stopped him: "Others have a good rest, and they will take turns tomorrow night."

The others had no choice but to stop talking and went into their tents to get ready to sleep.

It was early in the morning, and after 0:[-], a reminder popped up in everyone's floating box at the same time-the second day of Desert Survival began.

The teammates fell asleep, while Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang sat on the sand to watch the night.On hand is the drone monitoring terminal under Tang Cibu, and on the feet is a makeshift stove.

The wind was not strong at night, but the temperature was getting lower and lower. Xiao Lou wrapped his cloak tightly, stretched out his hand and warmed himself by the fire, and whispered to Yu Hanjiang: "We have teleported three times, but Liu Qiao and Lao Mo have not Respond, don't they wake up yet?"

Yu Hanjiang whispered: "It is likely that they passed out in a safe place. Otherwise, if they were blown to the wild animal's nest by the tornado in the whole day, they would have no bones left by now."

The names on the contract are still there, at least they are all alive.

Xiao Lou was very worried about the situation of the four teammates. Unfortunately, there is no other rescue method at present, and it is impossible to find someone in the vast desert. He thought for a while and said: "I will try the team call again after an hour, and say Maybe Liu Qiao and the others will wake up in the middle of the night. I don’t know what will happen the next day. Before dawn, it’s better for everyone to gather as soon as possible.”

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "Well, Li Qingzhao's mark can be revised twice, and we still have two chances."

A gust of night wind blew up the surrounding dust.The flames only illuminated an area of ​​more than ten meters around. In the distance, it was foggy and pitch black, but the stars in the sky were extraordinarily bright.

Xiao Lou looked up at the sky and said with a wry smile, "This is my first time in the desert."

Yu Hanjiang gently held his hand and said in a low voice, "Me too."

The temperature was getting lower and lower, Xiao Lou's teeth chattered from the cold, Yu Hanjiang sat down beside him, stretched out his arms and hugged him into his arms, and said softly: "It's too cold at night, if you can't stand it, go cover it in the tent." Sleep on the quilt for a while."

Xiao Lou shook his head: "It's okay, I'll keep watch with you."

Seeing his firm expression, Yu Hanjiang didn't say any more, and silently tightened his arms.

I don't know if it's because they can keep each other warm by hugging each other. Xiao Lou felt that his body was getting hotter and hotter, as if he was surrounded by a stove. However, the stove was obviously a little away from him. Is it the heat from Yu Hanjiang's body?

Xiao Lou suddenly sensed something was wrong, stretched out the back of his hand to touch Yu Hanjiang's forehead, and said in surprise, "Are you having a fever?"

Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly, sometimes his body seemed to be roasted on a fire, and sometimes it was like falling into an ice cellar, his head gradually became dizzy, and he couldn't even hear Xiao Lou's voice clearly.Yu Hanjiang said hoarsely: "It seems to have a fever..."

Xiao Lou put his finger on his wrist and felt his pulse. His pulse was shockingly fast. Yu Hanjiang's face also flushed unnaturally. How could he suddenly get sick?Xiao Lou's mind was spinning rapidly, carefully thinking about what happened this day.

First, when he encountered a sandstorm, he protected his teammates with the invincible circle of compasses; then he was pulled to the mirage by Mr. Shao, and was attacked by a desert poisonous scorpion; then they encountered quicksand unluckily. , was swallowed by the quicksand, and bitten by the rats that lived beneath the desert.

Yes, rats!

Thinking of the small wound that was healed by Shao Qingge at that time, Xiao Lou's back suddenly broke out in cold sweat: "After you were bitten by a mouse, did the back of your hand bleed?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "Well, the wound is very small. Why? Could it be the mouse's problem?"

Xiao Lou's face gradually turned pale: "It's probably the plague."

Yu Hanjiang: "..."

When Yu Hanjiang was bitten by a mouse, due to Shao Qingge's timely treatment of the wound, the wound on the back of Yu Hanjiang's hand healed quickly without leaving a trace, so Xiao Lou was not worried.

But now it seems that Xiao Lou was too careless!

How could the two kings be so kind and only let the mouse add one or two small wounds to their bodies?

There are so many animals in the desert, wild wolves, poisonous snakes, spiders, centipedes, sending out a group of them at random is enough to give everyone a headache, but it is a mouse that is small and difficult to bite to death?

This is like a 3×7= suddenly appeared in a math problem in the college entrance examination?counts.

Now it seems that the pit buried by the two kings simply exceeded Xiao Lou's expectations.

Rats carry the plague.

In real life, the plague has almost disappeared because of the popularization of vaccines and the constant availability of antibiotics to deal with the plague in hospitals everywhere.However, in history, the plague used to be a severe infectious disease that caused people's discoloration, which once caused a large number of human deaths!

Once infected with the plague in the desert, they have no medical means to save the lives of their teammates!

Moreover, the plague is very contagious.

If Yu Hanjiang passed this disease on to Xiao Lou or other teammates, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Looking at Xiao Lou's pale face, Yu Hanjiang also realized the seriousness of the problem. He consciously withdrew his arm, let go of Xiao Lou, walked a few steps away, and asked in a low voice, "Is it difficult to treat?"

Xiao Lou's eyes were red, and his voice trembled slightly: "We don't have antibiotics, no vaccines, and we can't find a hospital in the desert. Mr. Shao's worm trump card can only heal wounds, but it can't clear the bacteria and viruses in the body..."

Yu Hanjiang stood up: "I understand."

He turned around and walked away, Xiao Lou hurriedly called him: "Han Jiang, where are you going?"

Yu Hanjiang looked back at him: "The plague is contagious, what if I infect you?"

Xiao Lou gritted his teeth, not knowing what to say.

Yu Hanjiang said: "Once something happens to me..."

Xiao Lou immediately interrupted him: "Don't say something like 'you have an accident, let me take everyone out', I'm not a superman, without you, I don't have the ability to take everyone out. Come back, I'm not afraid of contagion .”

Xiao Lou knows that as a medical worker, it is a taboo to actively approach patients carrying pathogens.

What's more, he has not been vaccinated at all now.

But the man in front of him was not a patient, but Yu Hanjiang, his Hanjiang.

How could he have the heart to let Yu Hanjiang fend for himself in the desert alone?

No vaccine, no antibiotics, so leave Yu Hanjiang alone?Then what's the point of Xiao Lou going out alive alone?

Yu Hanjiang stood where he was, watching Xiao Lou walk towards him step by step.

Under the moonlight, although Xiao Lou's face was pale, his eyes were very gentle. He held a bottle of water and half a piece of unfinished chocolate in his hand. He walked up to Yu Hanjiang and stuffed the water and chocolate into Yu Hanjiang's hands. Li, said: "You need to drink water and eat something to replenish your strength. If you are really infected with the plague, then you may have a high fever, swelling and pain all over your body, and you may also bleed if it is serious."

Xiao Lou took a deep breath, gently held Yu Hanjiang's hand, and said seriously: "Until I find a cure for you, I will take good care of you... Believe me, okay?"

Yu Hanjiang was stunned, feeling extremely complicated for a moment.

For the first time someone told him - I will take good care of you.

Growing up, his parents were too busy with work, so he took care of himself.When he was in college, he received the harshest training in the police academy and developed the ability to deal with any difficulties independently.After work, he has faced danger countless times and walked on the edge of the knife every day. He is the most trusted captain of his colleagues in the police force.

But now, listening to Xiao Lou's words, he suddenly felt that his heart seemed to be held up tenderly and cherished by two hands.

He is also so cherished by others, and some people will try their best to take care of him so that he will not suffer any damage.

This person is Xiao Lou.

The person he likes, sure enough, never disappoints him every time.

Yu Hanjiang resisted the urge to hug Xiao Lou tightly, and said in a low voice, "Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Xiao Lou nodded: "You go back to the tent to rest, and I'll watch the night. Since you're sick, don't try to be brave, lest your condition get worse."

Yu Hanjiang had a severe headache, and his head was dizzy due to the high fever, so he could only listen to Xiao Lou's advice, and turned and walked into the tent.Xiao Lou woke up Brother Jiu and told Brother Jiu that Yu Hanjiang might be infected with the plague.

Lu Jiuchuan cursed in a low voice: "At that time, I saw him being bitten by a mouse, and I felt that something was wrong. The two kings really didn't have a good intention! What should we do next? Hanjiang fell ill, and four teammates disappeared..."

Xiao Lou calmly said: "I'll try teleportation to see if I can call my teammates back."

He modified Li Qingzhao's mark to a nearby location and initiated a team teleportation.

Liu Qiao and Lao Mo still didn't respond, but Long Sen and Qu Wanyue suddenly appeared in front of them.

What shocked Xiao Lou was that Long Sen was already unconscious, and was forcibly pulled by Qu Wanyue to teleport him together.

The skin of his whole body was covered with bluish-purple plaques formed by bleeding. Qu Wanyue's eyes were red with anxiety, and her voice was trembling slightly: "Professor Xiao, I finally saw you! I don't know what happened, but Long Sen suddenly That's all……"

Xiao Lou carefully checked the bruises on Long Sen's body, and said with an ugly face, "Has he been bitten by a mouse?"

Qu Wanyue quickly explained: "At that time, we encountered quicksand, and after we were swallowed by the sand, Long Sen's leg was bitten by a mouse a few times. We were washed away by the quicksand, and when I crawled him out, we couldn't see him." Everyone."

Lu Jiuchuan glanced at the unconscious Long Sen, and asked in a low voice, "Did he also contract the plague?"

Xiao Lou said with a sullen face, "It's probably a sepsis-type plague."

Qu Wanyue and Lu Jiuchuan obviously didn't understand this kind of professional vocabulary, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.

In order not to hear Yu Hanjiang, Xiao Lou deliberately lowered his voice, and explained: "This kind of plague, also called fulminant plague, develops extremely rapidly, and within a short period of time, symptoms of sepsis such as systemic bleeding and confusion will appear. Usually dies within 3 days, and after death the body turns black and purple due to extensive bleeding from the skin..."

He took a deep breath, looked at Brother Jiu and Qu Wanyue, and said, "Have you ever heard of the Black Death, which swept across Europe in the Middle Ages and killed more than 500 million people?"
