The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 43 Temperature
I asked subconsciously: "What way?" If she had a way to get out, why was she still trapped for so long?

After I finished asking, Qiu Huangxi said calmly, "I took a look at the mouth of the well where you fell, and it's very narrow." I nodded.So she looked at my body and said: "You still have strength now, and you have long arms and legs, so you can actually climb out by yourself." I immediately understood what she meant. Although there is no rope, I actually have to climb out It is not impossible to get out of that kind of narrow well mouth. It is completely feasible to push on the well wall with two feet and use limbs to move, but this method consumes a lot of energy.

The most important thing is that there are those man-eating things in the cave. As soon as we go out, they will surround us. Where will we be given time to crawl slowly?If this method was feasible, Qiu Huangxi and her companions should have used this method to escape long ago.

Seeing the suspicion in my eyes, Qiu Huangxi smiled again, to be honest, I don't know her original appearance, but her current appearance is really frightening to look at, and there are occasional wounds in the wound. The watery liquid flowed out, exuding a foul smell, making it even more disgusting.

I'm not a person who judges people by their appearance, but when a person is scary to a certain extent, it's really hard to look directly at.

After she finished laughing, she said calmly, "I've thought a lot during the few days I've been trapped. My life is over." She gestured to her face, and then said, "You run by yourself, and I'll help you later." Block them." I finally understood what Qiu Huangxi meant, she actually no longer had the desire to survive, and now she wanted to sacrifice herself to let me escape.

I said almost without thinking, "No!"

"Why?" She asked back, and then said slowly: "I live like this, will it be interesting in the future?"

I'm not very good at persuading people, don't worry too much, my mind is in chaos, and I don't care if what I say is reliable: "Don't think like this, you are just disfigured, maybe, maybe there won't be any good marriage , but people live for a lifetime, there are still many pursuits, right? You are not missing an arm or a leg, and you can do a lot of things. Look at that... that thing, I forgot what her name is, and she is also ugly, But don’t they live well, and devote themselves to medical research, how much contribution they have made to mankind, how respected they are, you, calm down.”

Probably because my persuasion skills are too weak, Qiu Huangxi was stunned, then smiled, and said: "He is a scientist, and I am a little teacher."

I said: "Hello, teacher! Teacher, preaching and imparting karma to solve doubts. A teacher is an engineer of the human soul. What a great profession."

Qiu Huangxi tilted her head and said, "But after I go out, are there any schools willing to use me? Can I still teach students?"

I was speechless when I asked this question, yes, this society always says that people should not be judged by appearance, and there should be no discrimination based on appearance, but everyone knows that this is lying with open eyes.With Qiu Huangxi's current appearance, the students would probably have nightmares the whole night when they saw her.

That's right, not only is she disfigured, but her career is basically ruined, and love can also be sentenced to death.I am a man myself, and I know very well that with her current appearance, it is impossible for any man to have feelings for her.

I scratched my head and couldn't speak for a while, then I could only choke out a sentence: "No, I can't let you die, damn it, you have to die together."

Qiu Huangxi smiled again and said, "What's the relationship between us, you're going to die with me?"

I said: "I'm stupid, I can't tell you, but the method you just said is invalid, I won't let you do it." Qiu Huangxi curled her lips when she heard that, but didn't speak.

The lighter was covered again, and the flame disappeared. We didn't dare to let the flame burn for too long, for fear of causing something more powerful.

In the darkness, the stench in the air became clearer, emanating from her body.

I felt very uncomfortable in my heart, and suddenly thought, what should a person pursue in his life?I have seen too many people in orphanages who have no future, mentally handicapped, blind, and polio. They are not only physically handicapped, but also have no education. Their lives are doomed to be futile no matter how hard they try.

And what about Qiuhuangxi?
According to her current state, where is her future?

After careful consideration, I organized my language and said: "If you don't want to be a teacher, you can do other things. You still have your parents, and they will help you. You can do something else that doesn't need to be publicized. Isn't it all popular now? An online store? Why don’t you open an online store, I heard it’s very profitable.”

"Actually, the injuries on the body can be covered with clothes. As for the injuries on the face, although they look serious now, they should be better after treatment after going back. Usually, when you go out, you wear sunglasses or a mask, and others will not I don’t know. When the big stars on TV go out, they are all wrapped up tightly.”

"Also, you are going to explore the desert this time. You must be a person who likes to stroll. You are still so young, so there must be many places you haven't been to. If you earn more money in the future, you can go wandering everywhere. Yes No? Sometimes when you think about it from a different angle, life is actually pretty good. There are still many disabled people who can’t even stand up and can’t see.”

After I finished speaking, there was silence in the cave for a while, and then, remembering Qiu Huangxi's laughter, she leaned her head slightly towards me and said, "You are really interesting, it seems disfigured when you say that. It’s not a particularly tragic thing.”

I saw that she was in a better mood, so I said: "As the old saying goes, things happen in life, nine times out of ten you don't like it, and you only live like this, so you have to try your best to live a better life, right?"

Qiu Huangxi nodded and said: "The future you planned for me just now is pretty good, but I still want a lover and a child. I don't want to live alone for the rest of my life. I'm so ugly, I must No one wants me anymore, why don't you make do with me?"

"Ah..." I was startled, Qiu Huangxi's face more terrifying than a ghost flashed in my mind.Really, I'm just an ordinary person. Although I don't judge people by their appearance, I can't feel liking or love just by seeing her face. How can I make do with it!
Qiu Huangxi giggled when she heard my wailing that she forgot to hide, and said, "I'm kidding you." Immediately afterwards, she sighed as if she was relieved, and said, "I feel much better suddenly, yes, I If you want to live, isn’t it disfigured? There is nothing to be afraid of. There are many ways to live in life.”

I nodded quickly, struck while the iron was hot, and said, "Yes, didn't the book say that when God closes a door for you, he will open another window for you."

Qiu Huangxi said again: "Thank you, are we friends now?"

I said, "Of course." As long as it's not a boyfriend or girlfriend... I'm an ordinary person, an ordinary person, and I can't 'love' someone because I sympathize with her.

Qiu Huangxi said again: "After talking for so long, I still don't know your name."

I said: "My surname is Su, my name is Su Tiangu, and I work in Shenzhen."

Qiu Huangxi asked back: "What does your family do?"

I said, "I came from the orphanage." Actually, I don't really like to answer this question.

Qiu Huangxi immediately said: "Sorry." After a pause, she suddenly approached and said: "The orphanage, that is orphans, no relatives, right? I am an only child from BJ, and I have a house worth more than 400 million yuan And a BMW of more than 50 yuan, the deposit is not much, but don’t you say that you can make a lot of money by opening an online store in the future, really don’t think about it? Marry you with all the dowry, you can cook and keep warm On the bed, when the lights are turned off, it’s the same regardless of the face.”

I suddenly felt a little dumbfounded, and then realized that this Qiu Huangxi was actually very unreliable, so I said, "No."

Qiu Huangxi let out an oh, dragged on a long ending, and said: "It's okay, we talked about marriage when we first met, I was really anxious, we can take our time in the future."

"..." I really don't want to have a future with you.

In order not to hit her, I decided not to make a sound, and began to think about the countermeasures to escape.

Soon, I thought of a way and asked her, "Didn't you think of attacking with fire?"

"Fire attack?" She said these two words slowly, "No, there are no combustibles here, they will shrink into the soil, and the flames will draw out the big guys hiding in the deep layer."

I said: "There is no need to hurt them, just press them into the soil."

Qiu Huangxi understood what I meant, and said, "But, what about those big guys?"

I said: "I have to find out what they are and what they rely on to hunt before I can think of countermeasures." There are indeed some carnivorous plants in nature, such as Venus flytrap, pitcher plant, and pitcher plant.In the primeval forests of Panama, there is also a plant called 'catch vine', which has barbs on the surface. Once someone touches it, the catch vine will tightly entangle the person until death, and finally dies slowly. Digest people slowly to provide nutrients.

These carnivorous plants are all predatory.For example, trapping vines require people to touch them before they can trigger a reaction, while plants such as pitcher plants also attract insects through their smell, and the insects automatically fall into the trap.

So what are those roots that bind us?On what basis are they attacking us?Plants can't have eyes, they can't see us, so they attack, right?

Is it the smell?

Do plants still smell?
When I mentioned this, Qiu Huangxi seemed to have thought of something, ahed, and said, "I see, it's the temperature!"

That's right, those plants sensed the temperature of the human body, so they could hunt accurately, and those things buried deep, sensed the temperature of the fire, would rush out to attack, as if forming a defense system.

So, if we lower our own temperature, can we escape?
