MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 189 Death is coming

Death really came this way, suddenly.

A group of dozens of women and children walking south first went to the hot spring to wash their clothes. They were gossiping in glee, and the few women who walked in front suddenly seemed to be choking their throat In general, almost everyone, whether a woman or a child, felt the pain of suffocation, and they fell to the ground and convulsed.

Seeing this from a distance can only make people extremely fearful. Dozens of living people, on the grass, did not have any enemies or beasts to attack, as if they were turned on by invisible evil spirits, and suddenly died in such pain.

A girl who fell to the back turned in horror and ran back.

"Death is here!"

With a shrill cry, fear quickly spread throughout the camp.

The woman who had been cooking in the camp rushed out, and the young children who were collecting plants around jumped up, and the young soldiers who were gossiping around in twos and threes became nervous.

Everyone looked south of the slope, the girl who left the line and screamed and ran away. In the horrified sight of everyone, she suddenly choked her throat, made a terrible erh, and fell to the ground.

Some relatives of the little girl wanted to go to the rescue, but before they contacted people, they fell into the same tragic situation.

The scope of death is constantly expanding, as if there is an invisible monster that is opening up the huge mouth of the blood basin and devouring the lives of people. From the recent beginning, it gradually lurks upward ...

"It's the goddess' curse, and the curse's scope has expanded!" Finally someone shouted.

"Hurry up!"

Screams screamed one after another.

It seems that in a long time, the people of the Xuelie clan have experienced such torture more than once. They responded quickly, helped the old and the young, and didn't run away distantly.

The original peaceful and warm camp suddenly turned into a pot of boiling water, or was thrown a pack of explosives.

There were running people on all sides, and there were wailing and crying for help.

In this chaos, Su Luoer rushed in front of Qin Nuo and screamed loudly: "Master, leave here quickly, the curse of the goddess has come. As long as the curse comes, it will become deserted, without Life can exist. "

Pei Tuo's crowds were obviously a bit flustered. They were all battle-hardened people, but they had never experienced such enemies. They were invisible and untouchable. They sounded extremely powerful.

In fact, what you see with the naked eye is also very powerful.

Just a few hundred meters apart, three or four young people fell to the ground. They were trying to rescue a dozen children, but were caught by the sudden death of the ankle, and the pace of running stopped abruptly.

The crowd immediately became nervous.

Yan Chang said quickly: "Let's get out of here quickly and talk about it one after another."

Qin Nuo stared at the scene in front of him. He suddenly turned around and picked up the torch hanging in front of the tent.

The fiercely burning flame seemed to be thrown into cold water, and suddenly extinguished in mid-air, turned into a wooden stick, and fell to the ground.

Qin Nuo's face turned blue, and he turned around, "Go now, go higher!"

Although a few people were puzzled by the emperor's actions, they were pressed for time, and no one had time to ask, and everyone immediately turned around and ran back.

Mixed in the crowd, Qin Nuo saw that the high priest came out trembling with the support of several principal priests, looking at the people who were struggling to the ground, his face pale and kneeling on the ground.

A trembling voice sounded, and he screamed exhaustedly: "If you still have resentment, devour me, Li Tuoer, this is the people you once blessed! Why treat them so cruelly!"

Qin Nuo passed by this group of people and couldn't help shouting: "Please ask the high priest to quickly organize the people and retreat immediately, and retreat to a higher place, there is still a vitality!"

However, the high priest did not pay attention to him, this elderly man seemed to have been knocked down by the cruel reality.

Qin Nuo anxiously stopped. Watching the chaotic team behind.

Because the invisible death is approaching, everyone is running away, but they don't know where to run, and many people scurry around like headless flies.

The direction was wrong, and the result was that he fell to the ground and could no longer climb.

Qin Nuo was so anxious that Lin Jia got together.

He grabbed Lin Jia's collar and yelled, "Hurry up and organize the people to evacuate to a higher place, and there will be a hint of vitality to the high place!"

Lin Jia looked at the emperor with a puzzled look.

Qin Nuo was about to explode.

What goddess curse, go to hell!

It is not death at all. This tm is the gas before the volcanic eruption such as ultra-high concentration of carbon dioxide. I am afraid that there are also toxic compounds such as sulfide and hydride.

damn it! The terrain here is low-lying, and it is a valley, and molecules such as carbon dioxide are heavier than ordinary air, so they gather underneath. Once up, this is the scene of death coming.

Such a huge amount of high-concentration carbon dioxide must be a volcanic fissure in the valley, which also explains why it is still snowing overhead during the cold winter months, and the entire valley can still maintain extremely high temperatures.

"To stop the people from retreating and let everyone go high. It is poisonous gas rising, not the curse of any goddess!" Qin Nuo shouted angrily.

I don't understand what carbon dioxide is, but Lin Jia understood it instantly.

Lin Jia took a deep look at Qin Nuo and quickly ran back to the high priest, whispering something.

The high priest not far up looked up, as if just waking up from the nightmare of collapse.

He stood up tremblingly and began to order the main priests around him.

With the leader, the chaos in the camp was finally brought under control. Several main sacrifices organized a team and led the people to retreat to the mountains to the east.

By this time, Qin Nuo had taken everyone to climb the mountain.

This valley is surrounded by mountain walls, and the east side is quite gentle.

He walked about a few hundred meters over the mountains and mountains, turned his head and looked, and behind him was a tide-like team. The members of the Xuelie clan, helping the old and the young, came here.

But because there are too many women and children in the team, the speed of moving forward is greatly slowed down.

Tao Yunqing and other young people are helping and supporting, but they can't take care of too many people.

Those who fell behind still kept falling, indicating that the scope of this **** gas was still expanding.

Is it possible that this volcano will erupt? Recalling the underground roar that I heard in the middle of the night, Qin Nuo was full of fear.

Everyone was desperately climbing up and down, and the wailing behind them was endless.

Yan Chang couldn't stand it anymore, Qin Nuo sighed, "Go on and help." Dozens of young people began to work with Tao Yunqing to rescue the backward women and children.

Race against death, everyone is doing their best for their lives.

Unconsciously, everyone had climbed to the mountainside, half an hour had passed, and no one had fallen down for no reason in the rear. This escaped team gradually slowed down.

On a piece of fairly flat land halfway up the mountain, the crowd stopped.

Numerous women and children collapsed to their knees, exhausted. Even the energetic young people such as Pei Tuo and Tao Yunqing are pale.

The fierce runaway almost drained everyone's last effort. At the end of the day, each of them supported several women and children.

Despite Qin Nuo's obstructions, she helped several children and helped several children.

Paralysis usually sits on the ground, and it only takes a long time to ease over. Qin Nuo struggled to stand up, because he saw that the high priest, whose hair was white, came towards himself with the support of several young people. Lin Jia was among them.

In front of Qin Nuo, the high priest bowed down.

"Thank you, General Gen., for reminding me that most of us would not have escaped this calamity if it were not for your direction."

Qin Nuo smiled bitterly. "The high priest is polite. It is not much help. I have been entertained by you for many days and healed my subordinates. I have not yet said thank you."

Standing halfway up the mountain, looking down from a height, the original camp became completely silent. The tent was the same size as a fingernail. Among them, the sesame seeds were lying horizontally and vertically. Those people who had not had time to escape had become a corpse.

The bonfire in front of the camp was extinguished, and the white smoke floated. Just a few hours ago, there was a lot of laughter and laughter, and it became a place of death in a blink of an eye.

Thousands died as a result of an accident.

Turning to look at the people who finally fled to the middle of the mountain, their faces were pale and desperate, still immersed in fear.

The high priest asked again, "The young general said that it was poisonous gas, but I don't know what poisonous gas is?"

Qin Nuo frowned. The concept of carbon dioxide must not be explained. He pondered for a moment, and said, "take the liberty to ask, why is this Tianxing Mountain regarded as a sacred mountain by your noble tribe?"

Our Xuelie people migrated here more than 300 years ago. It is said that they were called by the light on the top of the holy mountain. The light is released day and night, the storm does not move, and the rain does not die. In the dark night, it will always be supreme. Light. Guided the tribe's first people to migrate to this land. That is the direction of God. Strangely, after the tribe migrated to this land, the fire went out. Then, the leaders of the tribe found that the land was rich and fertile, and the water plants were more fertile than other areas. So the tribe took root here.

Qin Nuo nodded, "If I guess it is not bad, this Tianxing Mountain should be a volcano."

Hundreds of years ago, this nearby area was originally a very barren area with no trace of human life. At that time, when the Xuelie people migrated, it should be after the Tianxing Mountain erupted that they would see the fire on the top of the mountain gradually go out. When they arrived here, the volcanic ash covered the originally barren land and formed a rich and fertile soil layer.

They lived here and thrived, and over the centuries, they gradually became a large and powerful tribe.

"Volcano?" The high priest was puzzled by this strange concept.

"This is where the fire broke out," Qin Nuo explained.

Ground fire erupted? The high priest looked dignified. After all, he was old and experienced the prosperity of the Xuelie tribe during his heyday. He had seen many books from various ethnic groups. Occasionally, there are short records that the flames will emerge from the ground, and the ancients called it the wrath of the gods.

"The earth is like a human body, and it is divided into hot and cold, and the so-called volcano is the exit of the fiery underground. Perennial thermal energy surges, so this valley will be like spring in all seasons, rich in products and surrounded by hot springs. Not only will it bring heat, but there will also be some poisonous gas. "Qin Nuo tried his best to explain things in the simplest and most straightforward and classical way.

"The general said, this is the poisonous gas that erupted when the fire broke out, covering the valley?" The high priest quickly changed Qin Nuo's words into an understandable statement. "How do the generals know these things? ? "

"Recorded in ancient books," Qin Nuo said.

Lin Jia thought deeper: "The clear air is light and floats upwards, and the cloudy air is heavy and descends. Therefore, when the clear air is cloudy, it is no wonder that the general just said that if he wanted to escape from the cloudy air, he would need to escape upwards ..."

It seems no problem to explain this way.

Qin Nuo added: "This turbid gas is colorless, odorless, and difficult to detect. Often people will lose their lives in their sleep, just like the call of death, so it is extremely harmful." Even in modern society, it is because of sleeping in a car. Occasionally, closed spaces cause carbon dioxide poisoning.

"So, it was the same in Xuelie City more than twenty years ago ..." The high priest suddenly thought of something, his body trembling.

Qin Nuo lowered his eyes and recalled the location of Xuelie City in the mountains between the two sides. If the large-scale high-concentration carbon dioxide spewed out from the cracks in the mountain that year, the accumulation would not be lost, which may indeed cause such tragedies.

But it is also a wonder that such a huge amount of poisonous gas has not really erupted. Perhaps the location of the ground fire at that time was deep in the ground. Through the thick rock layer, the magma did not flow out of the ground, but caused a large-scale earthquake.

Think of a series of natural disasters later on in the Xuelie clan, earthquakes continued, rivers dried up, and grasslands dried up. Qin Nuo could probably speculate on the situation at that time.

The high priest settled down, and finally asked, "So according to what the young general heard, can this turbid air deal with the solution?"

Qin Nuo thought about it, shook his head, "No." Oxygen masks couldn't be manufactured in this era.

When the high priest's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth and asked, "When will this turbid air dissipate?"

Hearing this question, Qin Nuo's body trembled, he finally realized one thing, a problem that his exhausted brain had not had time to think before.

If the poisonous gas in the valley cannot dissipate, how do they go down the mountain?

Tens of thousands of people are scattered on the mountainside today! Because they only evaded the valley before, everyone took only a few rations, and because the valley was warm, they didn't wear too thick clothes.

Qin Nuo looked around in horror. Many women and children shuddered and shuffled into a ball. The mother was holding the children, and a group of people huddled together to draw warmth from each other.

The climate here is not warmer than that of a valley. The temperature at the mid-mountain is already very cold. Although there is no dripping water and ice like that outside, it is not a weak woman or child supporting for a long time.

Qin Nuo did not answer, but his sudden complexion had already informed the High Priest's answer.

Even Lin Jia's expression of fear came, did these tens of thousands of people have to be trapped alive on this half-mountain?
