Tomb Raider: From the Dragon Ridge Cave

Chapter 9

In the dim tunnel, a bug was dug out of the loess by a big white goose.

This thing looked like a louse, but it was the size of a broad bean and had a brownish earthy color.

Looking at the strange bug pecked out by the big white goose, Qin Yan suddenly understood.

So that's it!

"Lao Hu, I'll switch places with you."

Although Hu Bayi didn't know what Qin Yan was going to do, he saw what Qin Yan should have seen, and he changed places with Qin Yan as he said.

Qin Yan came to the front of the team, turned around and said,"Fatty, take some lime powder from your bag."

After what happened before, Fatty trusted Qin Yan more and more, and handed it over without thinking.

Qin Yan took the lime and instructed,"All of you cover your noses. If you don't want to burrow into the soil like Lao Hu, don't cover your noses tightly later."

Why cover your noses?

Although everyone was puzzled, they all did it.

They also saw Qin Yan's previous performance, so they all trusted him.

After covering their mouths and noses, they watched Qin Yan's actions silently.

Qin Yan sprinkled lime on the ground in front.

The next second.

A lot of insects suddenly emerged from the ground.

These things are like small beetles, each one is earthy brown, the same color as loess, and you can't see them if you don't look carefully.

""Fuck, Brother Qin is awesome, there really is something!"

The fat man stared at Qin Yan in amazement.

The others were also secretly shocked. Qin Yan seemed to be more powerful than they imagined.

Those bugs emerged from the ground and spread on the ground in front of them, densely packed.

If someone with trypophobia saw it, they would probably faint.

Even the few of them had goose bumps all over their bodies.

Fortunately, as soon as the bug came out of the ground, it touched the lime that Qin Yan had sprinkled before, and immediately kicked its feet and died.

"Comrades, what the hell is this thing?"

The fat man couldn't help asking.

If he had been asked this question before, Qin Yan would probably not have been able to answer it.

However, after integrating and absorbing the biological encyclopedia knowledge rewarded by the system, Qin Yan naturally knew everything about biological knowledge.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that lime could kill them.

Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Yan smiled slightly and explained:

"This thing is called woodlice. It looks ordinary, but its body contains hallucinogenic toxins, which will be released once it dies."

"Old Hu had hallucinations before, probably because he accidentally crushed this kind of insect to death while crawling, so he inhaled the hallucinogenic gas and had hallucinations."

After listening to Qin Yan's explanation, everyone suddenly realized it.

At the same time, they also felt palpitations.

If Qin Yan hadn't been here, the consequences would be disastrous.

As mentioned before, when they were in the ancient city of Jingjue, just a plant of corpse-scented konjac that could cause hallucinations almost wiped out the entire tomb-robbing team.

It can be seen how terrifying hallucinations are.

Shirley Yang finally understood at this moment why Professor Chen had to do his best to recommend Qin Yan.

The gentle-looking young man in front of him seemed to have the same, or even stronger, ability to rob tombs than Hu Bayi.

The fat man raised a thumb and smiled:"Brother Qin is awesome, you are the only guy I have seen in so many years who can compare with me, Fatty, haha!"

Hu Bayi couldn't help but give the fat man a blank look:"I say, Fatty, you can die if you don't brag!"

Big Gold Teeth also teased:"Fatty's face is thicker than the city wall. I remember someone said before, Mr. Jin, I don't think your friends are good enough."

The fat man snorted:"Fatty, I am determined to take the world as my responsibility. How can I not be arrogant and awesome? Arrogance depends on strength, and awesomeness depends on courage."

Everyone laughed when they heard it.......

After clearing away these bugs, there was indeed no danger ahead.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

After resting for a while, they continued on their way.......

Because of the presence of woodlice, everyone moved more carefully.

This time it was Qin Yan's turn to lead the way, spreading lime as he walked.......

"Brother Qin, you spread lime along the way, is there enough lime?"

Big Gold Teeth couldn't help but ask.

To be honest, lime is not always available in tomb-robbing equipment, and it is not used in many places.

So this time they only brought a bag of it.

Who would have thought that they would encounter such a situation!

Qin Yan looked at the bag in his hand.
