Chapter 473 Mosquito
Chapter 473 Mosquito
As time passed, Su Qin and his companions went deeper and deeper into the forest.
Looking at the dark trees around them and the unclear forest, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
It is because humans cannot see the situation around them clearly that they develop fear of the unknown.
Not only that, although they put some incense on their car, it can greatly prevent animals that smell the scent from choosing to stay away from them.
But this incense is not a panacea. After all, the smell is not fatal, it just keeps them away.
So in this situation, Zhao Mingxin and his group had to be more careful and observe the situation around them at all times.
While operating the drone and observing the situation ahead, Zhou Ming spoke to Peng Yang.
"Where are we now?"
Hearing Zhou Ming's question, Peng Yang immediately pursed his lips.
"We have now reached the center of this primeval forest. If we continue like this, we should be able to get out in no more than an hour."
Of course, Peng Yang was talking about the ideal situation.
If any other situations occur during the journey, this time will be greatly extended.
Just when Zhou Ming was about to say something, a cloud of black mist suddenly flew over from not far away.
The reason why it is described as black fog is because what is in front of you should be a group of mosquitoes with a relatively large number.
They should be a collective activity, all brought together.
This number shocked everyone.
Not only that, these mosquitoes flew very fast and soon arrived in front of their car.
Perhaps it was attracted by the lights on their vehicle, so it began to hover around their car.
When Zhou Ming first saw this scene, he didn’t think too much about anything else.
After all, there are just some mosquitoes in such a big forest, and it is normal to have mosquitoes.
But soon, Zhou Ming discovered something wrong.
That is, the number of mosquitoes began to increase. They were attracted by the lights of the car and kept gathering around.
This made it even more difficult for Zhou Ming and his team to see the situation ahead, as the lights were not particularly bright to begin with.
Realizing this, Zhou Ming frowned.
"No, why are there more and more mosquitoes? Didn't we light incense? Why aren't they afraid?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard Zhou Ming's words.
Indeed, the mosquitoes seemed to be completely oblivious to the smell of the incense and were not affected at all.
Thinking of this, Bai Huashan spoke immediately.
“Is it possible that these mosquitoes are attracted by the smell of incense?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on Bai Huashan.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Bai Huashan pursed her lips.
"But if we don't light the incense, then there will be no way to drive away other animals?"
Zhou Ming thought about it and spoke immediately.
Indeed, this has become a dilemma.
"But if we continue to light it, as we gradually go deeper into this primeval forest, more and more mosquitoes will be attracted. Wouldn't that be a problem?"
Chen Mingyue thought about it and spoke immediately.
After hearing Chen Mingyue's words, Zhou Ming also fell into deep thought.
Indeed, this is indeed a difficult problem for them now.
Looking at the increasing number of mosquitoes outside, Zhou Ming immediately pursed his lips.
"Can you drive faster? Maybe there will be fewer mosquitoes catching up with us."
Hearing Zhou Ming's words, everyone present was stunned.
Perhaps they did not expect that Zhou Ming would come up with such an idea.
"But the road is so uneven now, and driving too fast is a torture for Su Qin, isn't it?"
After hearing what Zhao Mingxin said, Zhou Ming immediately fell silent.
Indeed, they seem to have fallen into a dilemma now, that is, no matter what choice they make, it seems not quite suitable.
After a long while, Peng Yang finally spoke.
"Uncle Zhou, do you have any other incense? If so, maybe I can use it."
Hearing Peng Yang's words, Zhou Ming shook his head.
This is the only kind of incense he has, and there is only so much of it. Once it is used up, there will be no more.
Seeing him shaking his head, everyone present didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Li Junhe seemed to have thought of something and spoke immediately.
"I remember that mosquitoes seem to like sucking blood, right?"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Indeed, blood may be able to attract the attention of mosquitoes to a greater or lesser extent.
As long as there are fewer mosquitoes, the light will not be easily blocked.
"But this should be very risky, right? After all, there are many animals in this primeval forest. What if the smell of blood attracts them?"
Hearing Chen Mingyue's words, Li Junhe smiled slightly.
"I remember we still have blood-drawing tubes in our hands. We can draw blood directly into them, then open the window and throw it out. The blood-drawing tube will break when it hits the ground, and the scent of the blood inside will be released, right?"
And by then their cars will just drive away and there will be no possibility of them staying.
Furthermore, even if those animals were attracted, they would only compete with mosquitoes for the blood on the ground.
So in this case, they don't have to worry.
Besides, the blood can be contained in a blood draw tube so that it does not spill, and there will be no smell in the car.
As long as they handle it well and don't let the car be stained with the smell of blood, they naturally won't chase after them.
Thinking this way, Li Junhe also spoke in this way.
After hearing his words, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Under the current circumstances, it is indeed the best option.
In this regard, everyone's eyes fell on Bai Huashan.
After all, their final decision still depends on Bai Huashan, because she is an expert in this area.
Noticing everyone's gaze, Bai Huashan's eyes fell on the mosquitoes surrounded by the car lights outside.
Seeing these densely packed mosquitoes, Bai Huashan nodded immediately.
Indeed, they have no choice but to do this now.
Besides, the blood draw is very small, and there are a lot of people here, so not much blood will be consumed.
Seeing Bai Huashan nod, Li Junhe immediately went to get his medicine box and started looking inside.
Soon, he took out the blood draw and started drawing blood on himself.
