Survival male god

Chapter 278 I want to go in and have a look
Chen Jing wrapped a gauze scarf around the front of the bone stick, lit it, and waved it to drive away the poisonous scorpions and clear the way for Gu Jingmo and Jennifer.

The three of them ran very fast, not daring to stop at all. There were so many poisonous scorpions, and if one of them missed one and climbed onto them and stung them with their tails, the consequences would be extremely serious.

In this case, there is a [-]% chance of death from poison.

The distance of several thousand meters cannot be said to be very far. Needless to say, Chen Jing, the physical strength of the two women is far beyond that of ordinary people, but the ground itself is uneven, and the collapsed stone monuments and weeds make the road conditions even more complicated.

With this, even though their speed was many times faster than the poisonous scorpions, they still could not escape before the poisonous scorpion army encircled them.

Seeing the poisonous scorpions around him coming like a tidal wave, even if Chen Jing vigorously waved the torch in his hand, it seemed to be of no use.

"Oh my god, how come there are so many scorpions?"

"Have all the scorpions in the Sahara desert come here?"

Jennifer kept hopping, using the hard leather soles of her boots to trample to death one desert golden scorpion after another.

But there were still two of them, crawling along the uppers of the shoes and onto her calves. She screamed and flew them away with a dagger.

In contrast, Gu Jingmo looked much calmer. She also took out a piece of clothing from her backpack, lit it on fire, and kept slapping the ground.

"Think of a way quickly. The fire will burn out soon. By then, let alone tens of thousands of poisonous scorpions, we won't be able to deal with even tens of thousands of ants."

Chen Jingjing nodded and said:

"Don't panic, tell her to calm down. In this case, the more panicked, the more likely something will go wrong."

"How do you ask me to stay calm? I hate these bugs..."

Chen Jing "...correct me, scorpions are arthropods, not bugs."

"I'm not in the mood to joke with you now?" Jennifer turned her head and glared at him fiercely.

"I'm not kidding you. I mean, I know them very well. If you continue to act like a female gorilla and only make annoying screams, do you believe I will throw you into a pile of scorpions?"

Chen Jing was indeed unbearable by her noise. He directly grabbed Jennifer's denim top with his free left arm and lifted her up.

"Ah~"

Jennifer was stunned by his actions, and this terrifying power completely shocked her.

"Shut up, do you hear me? If you want to survive, just cooperate honestly."

Chen Jing put her down and said quickly:
"Israeli golden scorpions are very venomous, but ultimately they are no different from other scorpions."

"This animal has many shortcomings. They are a sensitive animal, afraid of light, fire, moisture, pungent smells and noise."

"Anything on your body can repel them."

"Fengyoujing, do you have any mosquito repellent?"

"These things can work continuously. If there are any, take them all out and apply them on everyone."

"To create low-frequency noise, you can use walkie-talkies, speakers on equipment, etc..."

"There are also flashlights. As treasure hunters, you should carry these things with you."

Gu Jingmo gave an affirmative answer.

They did bring all of what Chen Jing said, but they didn't expect that these things could be used to deal with the poisonous scorpions.

"Flashlight, walkie-talkie..."

"I also brought two bottles of Fengyoujing, specially designed to prevent heatstroke and dizziness. I didn't expect it to come in handy right now!"

Gu Jingmo took out a lot of things from his backpack, and Jennifer on the side also looked through it doubtfully.

"Turn on the flashlight, turn the intercom volume to the maximum, find a radio channel with a disordered signal, and quickly apply Fengyoujing. The more you apply, the better."

"I'll drive you away, you hurry up and apply it!"

Gu Jingmo and Jennifer immediately unscrewed the bottle cap of Fengyoujing and quickly applied it on their bodies.

Not long after, a whole bottle of Fengyoujing was smeared on all of their bodies. Whether it was bare skin, clothes, pants or backpacks, they all exuded an unpleasant pungent smell.

Jennifer was choked with tears.

"Ahem~ Your method better really work!"

"Here." Gu Jingmo unscrewed the cap of the second bottle of Fengyoujing and handed it over.

Chen Jing put down the bone stick, and just as the gauze was burned out, little fire drops fell to the ground.

Generally speaking, the smell of Fengyoujing is not unpleasant, but when the amount is too large, the spicy and pungent smell is indeed very overpowering.

However, the effect was astonishingly good. When the wind blew, the scorpions surrounding them all turned upside down and crowded around, but none of them could move forward.

"The main ingredients of Fengyoujing are the most powerful weapons for removing scorpions, including peppermint and camphor. As you can see, the effect is definitely there and quite strong. However, I estimate that this kind of strong effect can last for about ten minutes at most. ."

"In addition, a small number of scorpions may not be sensitive to irritants if their sensory organs function abnormally. They will still attack us, so we must not take it lightly."

Chen Jing warned, Gu Jingmo and Jennifer nodded.

At this moment, the two of them were holding flashlights in their hands and walkie-talkies on their waists. When the strong light was shining, they made a sizzling sound of electromagnetic interference. Coupled with the strong smell of wind oil, it was like a mobile scorpion-repelling castle. , funny yet somewhat reasonable.

Seeing that the scorpion group that had launched a crazy attack just now, they all acted as if they were facing a formidable enemy and retreated one after another. Jennifer's eyes showed admiration for the first time, and she turned to Chen Jing and shouted:

"You are really a genius. Although these methods are weird, they are surprisingly effective."

Chen Jing shrugged, he just understood the rules and used them!
Moreover, one cannot be too happy because who knows if there are more scorpions in the pyramid.

When the wind oil essence loses its effect, it is impossible to completely restrain the poisonous scorpion just by relying on the small-scale dispersal effect of the flashlight.

As for the low-frequency noise of the walkie-talkie, it can only be considered an irritant at best. Once the Scorpion gets used to it, it may not have much effect.

All I can say is that it is safe for the time being.

"Hurry up and act!"

After saying a word, Chen Jing rushed towards the direction of the pyramid without looking back.

After a few minutes of this, his speed slowed down, not only because of fatigue, but also because the three of them discovered that the poisonous scorpion was no longer around.

Those guys weren't very fast, but what was really strange was that there wasn't even a single scorpion near the pyramid.

On the contrary, the electromagnetic interference sound coming from the walkie-talkie became more and more intense. It was still sizzling at first, but now it was like someone scratching crazily on the blackboard with fingernails, so fast that it flew up.

"Turn it off!" Jennifer was almost going crazy hearing this, and quickly turned the knob to silence the intercom.

Gu Jingmo frowned. She suddenly felt a little nauseous and couldn't help but bend over and start retching.

A moment later, Jennifer also appeared in the same situation. Only Chen Jing was like a normal person, except for a slight dizziness, there was no serious problem.

"In the pyramid, there must be strong signal interference, or a twisted magnetic field. The human cochlear nerve, including the brainstem, thalamus, and pituitary gland, all have the function of receiving external information and feeding it back to the central system."

"Once affected, it is likely to cause sensory disorders, or even cause death from shock. I suggest you step back a little."

Chen Jing helped them and walked back dozens of meters, and that feeling disappeared immediately.

"What's going on? How come you're not affected?"

Jennifer wiped the saliva from the corners of her mouth, her face full of confusion.

"It's not that I haven't been affected, it's just that my physique is stronger and my adaptability is stronger. But this is too strange. It stands to reason that such a strong magnetic field distortion should not exist in a normal environment, because the magnetic field signal can be easily detected. ."

"Could it be..."

"What?" Gu Jingmo was the one who was most affected. Her face turned pale and she couldn't understand what was going on.

Chen Jing is not an expert in this field. He has little knowledge of many things and can only speculate:
"Maybe it is a specific radioactive substance that may not be detectable by human means. In other words, what affects us is not the magnetic field signal, but the radiation."

"But there's a paradox here."

"The stronger the radioactivity, the shorter the half-life. The radiation effect here is so terrifying. It may take less than a few seconds for all the radioactive elements to decay. It is impossible to exist for such a long time."

"Look, there are no scorpions nearby. What does that mean?"

"It means that that kind of special interference has existed for a long time, at least when we discovered this place. Similarly, you see, there are some weeds growing on the edge of the square."

"It is a barren land with nothing. This is contrary to current scientific theories."

"It is extremely radioactive but has a long half-life, thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Is this possible?"

"One-way characteristics exist. For example, the half-life of some elements is as long as hundreds of millions of years, tens of billions of years, or even dozens of times longer than the age of the universe."

"But that element cannot have such strong radioactivity."

Chen Jing was also puzzled.

Gu Jingmo looked at him and murmured:
"Is it possible that this kind of radioactive material or element has never appeared on our planet?"

"Unknown means change. Science has no end. It means constant demonstration and overturning. Our current research theories as humans may still be very superficial compared to the entire universe."

"I remember you once told me that maybe in other universes, there will be life that is completely different from ours, such as silicon-based creatures?"

Chen Jing suddenly realized, looked at the woman in front of him and smiled and said, "Thank you for remembering this. That's just nonsense. But if that's true, our discovery this time may be recorded in the history of human civilization!"

"I think it's interesting to chat with you. I basically remember everything you said..."

There was a hint of blush on Gu Jingmo's pale face.

"What are you talking about? What kind of radiation elements, what kind of silicon-based organisms? Please, we are encountering difficulties now, can we let go of the love between our children?"

Jennifer felt like a one-hundred-watt light bulb. If she had known better, she would not have come in.

Of course, this was impossible, so in the end, she still urged her companions to think of solutions to the current predicament.

The two women, with four eyes, all looked at Chen Jing.

"Don't look at me. I can't help it. Radiation definitely has an impact on the human body. I don't know whether it's good or bad, but it definitely has an impact."

"Especially the strong radiation. I'm not scaring you. Maybe one day, the three of us will be covered in ulcers, grow some tumors, or mutate into monsters, or we may fly up on the spot, and our brains will suddenly become as powerful as aliens. Complete understanding of the mysteries of the universe.”

"But these two possibilities are relatively low. To be honest, I don't think it is very harmful. It just makes people feel uncomfortable. If it were really that kind of particularly terrifying radioactive source, something would happen to you right now!"

"And how did the Adra people who were exposed to radioactive sources build this pyramid?"

“This place is simply amazing!”

Chen Jing looked excited, and his speculation was not unreasonable. At least Gu Jingmo and Jennifer, after experiencing the nausea and dizziness just now, have now returned to normal and did not feel any pain.

It's also possible that the effect hasn't really started yet.

"Perhaps the reason why the Adela Dynasty built this pyramid was to seal that thing?"

"You think, is it possible that the ancient stone tablet found from the Mountain of the Dead is the Curse of Adela mentioned by the ancient Egyptian nobles thousands of years ago?"

Jennifer's head suddenly lighted up.

The three of them looked at each other and smiled in unison.

After a moment, Chen Jing shook his head.

"We are explorers, and what we see is what we gain. Just brainstorming here is of no use."

"No one knows what the specific situation is. Everything I just said is just speculation. Maybe the truth is completely different from what we imagined."

"It's better to explore it yourself."

Chen Jing has always been a pragmatist. He is good at thinking, but this does not mean that he likes to consume brain power out of thin air. This is a very meaningless thing. Only practice can lead to true knowledge.

"I agree with your opinion, but how to go in and explore?" Gu Jingmo first expressed his attitude.

Jennifer shook her head: "If we go in again, we may really die. Maybe we have been infected with the "curse"!"

"I'm sorry, I hurt you..."

Although on the surface she could still hold on, she would be lying if she said she wasn't worried. The key point was that she not only put herself in an unknown crisis, but also implicated Gu Jingmo and Chen Jing.

"We in China have a saying that life and death are determined by destiny, and wealth is in heaven!"

"It may be inappropriate to use it here, but you really don't need to apologize, let alone feel guilty. Every qualified adventurer should be prepared to lose his life at any time before embarking on a journey."

"Besides, aren't we okay now?"

Chen Jing turned his head and stared at the huge building in front of him, his voice was quite calm.

"I want to go in and see, alone!"
