Chapter 35 Blood Moss

"Oh." Old Wu said again. Xie Fei looked to the ground and saw Old Wu rolling on the ground with his head covering his head.

"What's wrong with you?" Xie Fei asked

"I knocked my head and still bleed. Oh, bite it, what should I do if I die?" Old Wu took his hand away, and the hand was bloody.

Xie Fei came over and came over with a lighter. Old Wu's hair was burnt even when it was too close to him, which made Old Wu curse again.

Xie Fei looked at Lao Wu's head and was shocked. Old Wu's head was sticky and then looked down and saw that his hands were also blood-red.

"Oh, hey, I'm going to die, it hurts so much." Old Wu kept shouting with his head covering his hands, and every time he saw that there were a lot of blood on it.

Xie Fei carefully checked Lao Wu's scalp, but what was strange was that there was no wound on his head that was bleeding.

"What's going on?" Old Wu suddenly felt that the bottom of his butt was wet again. When he touched it, he was blood red again, which scared him so much that he screamed again.

"Oh, my god, my son is unfilial. I haven't passed on it to our old Wu family. You left early and I didn't have time to respect you. Don't worry, your son will come soon."

Old Wu raised his hand tremblingly and was covered in blood.

Xie Fei looked at Lao Wu's body and touched the ground. He was also startled and was as slippery as silk.

"This is not blood, it is blood moss." Xiaoya said

"What?" Lao Wu asked with his mouth open, "Blood Moss?" He touched his head again and seemed to be less painful than before. The word "Blood Moss" is not unfamiliar to them. The three of them understood the cause of blood moss. Blood moss is a moss plant that absorbs trivalent iron in the blood under the long-term nourishment of human or animal blood, so that the content of its own rare substance changes. When trivalent iron in the plant is saturated, due to the characteristics of trivalent iron itself, the color of moss itself will also change, and it will become red and bright into the blood.

The name of "blood moss" is obtained from here. Generally speaking, the place where blood moss appears most often is the battlefield. In the era of cold weapons, there are not a few people with knives, axes, and other bodies and heads, especially large-scale fighting. After the war, these people had no time to deal with it and were buried with blood. The deceased had hatred before his death and was wronged after his death. The corpse could not rot for a long time and a layer of red hair would breed on the surface of the corpse, which was called blood moss.

Lao Wu stood up, lit the oil lamp again, and checked in the passage. The passage was an irregular rectangle, with two walls as if they were cut, and there were a large number of artificial grooves on the wall. There were steps built by humans under his feet, but both the steps and the wall were covered with bright red moss, like blood stains left by people on the wall, which was particularly charming under the light.

"How could there be so many?" Old Wu asked. Generally speaking, blood moss is not a very common plant. When the blood is exhausted, the blood moss will naturally wither and wither when it has no source of nutrition.

But now it is appearing in patches. According to common sense, there must be a blood source in the cave, but there are also some parts that make people glad, because even if the blood moss is evil, it is still a plant. The survival of moss plants means that there is flowing air in the cave, so it is really not far from the outlet.

Old Wu sniffed his nose gently again. There was a faint smell of blood in the air. Maybe this was the source of the nutrition of blood moss. But how can the oil lamp maintain the faint smell of blood that can support the thousand-year immortality? Let's take one step at a time. Old Wu comforted himself and said that he was not a brain-powered person anyway. Besides, he has already done this, what else can he do? He turned around and made it to the steps, and took out cigarettes into his pocket.

"Why are you sitting down again?" Xie Fei asked

"I'm a little hungry again." After Old Wu said that, he heard Xiaoya's stomach also "gurgle."

"Let's eat later, we probably aren't far from them."

"But I'm really hungry." Old Wu begged

"Or we'll all rest for a while, after all, we've been running for seven or eight hours." Xiaoya said, but her face felt extremely aggrieved.

Xie Fei looked at her and didn't say anything. To be honest, she was already hungry. Being able to persist until now was just like she could go out early, but looking at the current situation, it seems that it is not that simple. Xiaoya is right. They almost ran over for the past seven or eight hours, and in an extremely nervous state, the energy consumption was almost twice or even three times that of usual, and there was also physical strength. Not to mention that even the Iron Man came here at this time, it was time to feel soft.

Xie Fei just took off his backpack, but Old Wu snatched it over. Old Wu took out a few bags of biscuits and threw a pack of them one by one. After searching through the boxes and cabinets for a long time, he finally found the dehydrated vegetables in the instant noodles. He hesitated for a while and divided them into three portions evenly. The extra pack was thrown directly to Xiaoya.

Xiaoya glanced at Lao Wu, with gratitude and doubt in her eyes. The backpack was always on her.

"Brothers, I have left behind the instant noodles before, in case of emergency... "Old Wu smiled and said 'hehe'

Xie Fei looked at Lao Wu and thought that there would be no beef with sauce, but this bag didn't seem to be hidden. Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard Lao Wu shout "No." He immediately became alert. Lao Wu sniffed his nose and sniffed hard. Then he saw him lifting the bottom of the bag and pouring out the things inside, and sucking it for a while. He found a piece of vacuum spicy fish the size of a steamed bun from the pile of biscuits.

Xie Fei was directly convinced and felt admiration for Lao Wu, thinking that this was enough to catch up with the anti-drug dog. Taking Lao Wu's nose to the security inspection bureau would be sure to be foolproof.

Old Wu tore open the bag and broke a piece and handed it to Xie Fei. Xie Fei took it over and broke half of it and gave it to Xiaoya.

But not to mention that this small piece is really good, it is fragrant and spicy, but it is a little bit smaller. Maybe I am too hungry, this simple piece tastes better than the old man's wolf meat and the banquet set by Cui Yuan.

After eating the piece in his hand, Lao Wu licked the oil on his fingers, Xiaoya handed the dried fish to Lao Wu, but Lao Wu smiled "Haha." "I'm full." After that, he put his hands on the back of his head and lay down.
