Professor Liu, what's wrong with you guys! "As soon as they returned to the campsite with water, Lao Liu and his team saw that Professor Liu had already returned from the excavation site. Several leaders were sitting on folding chairs in front of the campsite, worried!
Xiao Liu, you're back now. I'm afraid you'll have to trouble yourself to fetch some more water. After you left, two of you fainted again. This kind of weather shouldn't have happened in theory! "Professor Liu smiled slightly at the three guides and muttered to himself. Unless it's really a coincidence that all of them were not in good health and fainted at the same time, otherwise there might be something wrong with that desert area!
Did you faint twice again? This... seems a bit abnormal, doesn't it? "Hearing that only a little time had passed out two more, even the three guides felt that something was abnormal, especially the superstitious Old Liu, whose face even changed slightly! Probably connected to some ghost! Oh my god! Something like that has gone!
It's a bit abnormal. We just discussed and thought there might be some toxic substances over there! We have already taken some sand for testing, and the few people who fainted have also been asked to carefully investigate. Today's work will be temporarily suspended until the results are out! "Nodded, letting Lao Liu and the others think wildly on their own. It's better to tell them the result of their guess to avoid everyone thinking wildly!
Dr. Xiao Zhao, how's it going? "As they spoke, a tent in the middle was lifted open, and a relatively young female doctor walked out of the tent with a frown, not even hearing Professor Liu's question!
Dr. Xiao Zhao? Dr. Xiao Zhao...! "Seeing the female doctor lose her mind, Professor Liu called out speechless twice, and Dr. Xiao Zhao finally realized!
Ah? Uh! Professor Liu, I'm really sorry, I was distracted just now! "Dr. Xiao Zhao blushed and answered with some embarrassment!
It's okay, what's the situation with Luo Lin and the others? Is it serious? "Professor Liu shook his head. He didn't care about these things at the moment, and was still worried about the situation of the two people who fainted!
Professor Liu, Luo Lin and the others are also dehydrated. I have carefully checked them several times just now, and the few people who fainted earlier have also shown significant improvement now. However, our water source is relatively insufficient, so the probability of dehydration...! "Dr. Xiao Zhao has been thinking about this question just now. With such a high level of weather causing so many people to dehydrate, won't they be directly sunburned to death in two months?
Dehydration again...! Sigh, let's do this for now. Starting from today, let's avoid the hottest weather, wake up early in the morning, work late at night, and rest at noon! "Although he couldn't believe it, Professor Liu had to accept this fact and also lamented that people's physical fitness is really poor now. It's incomparable to their time when no one has been sunburned while working in the hot weather!
Okay, Professor Liu, let's go fetch some more water! "Hearing that he was still dehydrated, Old Liu and the others shook their heads slightly, feeling the same way as Professor Liu, thinking that the person who fainted had poor health!
After calling the water again, Lao Liu and the others also rested in the campsite. Now this job is much better than before, and the wages for leisure work are high. A few days ago, Lao Liu and the others called Professor Liu's phone back to report their safety. It can be said that this is a blessing in disguise!
When the weather is hot, it's a good time to sleep, and everyone feels soft and limp. Even Lao Liu and the others, who don't have the habit of taking a nap, slept soundly!
When they woke up, the sun had already set in the west, and Professor Liu and his team set off with their tools. While the weather was still early, they went to the excavation site to do some work for a while, and it was not too late to come back and have dinner!
Lao Liu and his team haven't followed us yet. They have already dug almost at the excavation site, and they can't help much now. Even if they can, Professor Liu and his team probably won't trust Lao Liu and his team to help. Professor Liu and his team's work is not just about digging things!
They had already had enough water by noon, and Lao Liu and the others had no time to help prepare things for the logistics in the camp. With their help, the speed of dinner could be much faster later!
Speaking of which, the food in their camp is quite good. They can't even afford to miss meat every meal, and those who drink at night can even get a little bit of alcohol. Even Lao Liu and the others treat each other equally, and the three of them can get as much as others get. Compared to their previous desert life, they are considered happy!
In less than half an hour, smoke had already risen in the desert, and it would take a lot of time to cook for dozens of people. However, there was nothing left for Lao Liu and the others to do now. When they came to the desert, everyone already had a division of labor, and helping was okay. If they were too enthusiastic and did everyone else's work, it wouldn't be good!
Three of them took out a deck of playing cards from somewhere, spread a newspaper on the ground, sat on the ground and played poker. After playing a few cards, the campsite was already filled with the fragrance of rice!
Huh! Isn't it? "Old Liu, who was playing cards, suddenly shouted!
What's wrong, Liu Ge? I've seen through the two cards clearly. Do you still want them? "Hei Ge held the two cards in his hand and didn't even look up. He still had two ghosts of different sizes in his hand. At this moment, he wished that Lao Liu and the others would drop another bomb, but he knew the chance was very slim!
No, hurry up, Professor Liu and the others brought someone back! "He threw away his cards and quickly jumped over to help regardless of their reactions. However, at this moment, Old Liu felt very uncomfortable. The hot weather during the day could be understood as dehydration and fainting due to poor health, but now the sun is almost setting and the weather doesn't look too hot at all. What kind of water are you out of and what kind of heat are you experiencing?
Oh my god, why such an evil way! "The two guides couldn't take care of their cards anymore and threw them onto the newspaper to greet Professor Liu and the others. Now no one would believe that those people fainted because of the hot weather anymore!
Dr. Xiao Zhao, come and take a look quickly. Xiao Chen must be dehydrated too! "Professor Liu shouted anxiously at Dr. Xiao Zhao as he was still running. Professor Liu was really anxious now. The few at noon had only recovered a little bit, and now one had fallen down again. It was completely abnormal. Not only Xiao Chen, but even they had a feeling of fatigue all over their bodies. They thought it was hot before, but the weather was also not hot now. Fortunately, Xiao Chen's symptoms were relatively mild. He just lost his strength and sat on the ground, and Professor Liu and his team had someone lift him back. The people at the excavation site were all called back now. Before understanding the situation, no one dares to dig in that place again. Why do things happen there every time, but nothing happens at the campsite? Just think about it and you can guess there's a problem over there!
This is impossible, it's still dehydration! "Dr. Xiao Zhao casually checked twice and replied to Professor Liu. She was the busiest person today, with only one doctor among several patients, and the most frustrating thing was that they all had the same illness!
Still dehydrated? That's impossible, it's only been less than an hour. When we set off, everyone drank a lot of water, and we even brought some to the excavation site. If you're thirsty, wouldn't you know? Xiaochen, how do you feel? Are there any other discomforts? "Xiaochen just collapsed and asked," Isn't it too fake? Do you lack water or are you thirsty?
Professor, I don't know either. As I crouched down, I felt increasingly uncomfortable. Just as I was about to stand up, I felt weak all over and fell to the ground, but I never felt thirsty! "Xiao Chen just felt weak all over, but his speech was still very clear!
That's strange, this is the first time I've encountered this situation. I'm afraid there are still some things we don't know about here. It seems that we need to contact the bureau. There must be something we don't know about this place! "With a frown, Professor Liu asked someone to lift Xiao Liu into the tent. The situation has gone beyond their knowledge, and now it's clear that these people are dehydrated for some reason they don't know!
Due to Xiao Chen's illness, the excavation work came to a complete halt. Even no one dared to go to the excavation site anymore. After hanging a bottle for Xiao Chen, Dr. Zhao examined Professor Liu and his team with tools. What was frightening was that even Professor Liu and his team had slight dehydration, but unfortunately, they didn't feel anything at all. Except for the rapid depletion of physical strength, everything else seemed normal. When they realized something was wrong, Xiao Chen and his team were already in that state!
Due to the presence of several patients, the dinner at night was much richer than usual. However, at this time, everyone didn't even have the mood to eat. After finishing their meal hastily, Lao Liu and the others picked up buckets to fetch water again! During the meal, Professor Liu and his team had already reported the situation here to the higher authorities and are now waiting for their instructions. They won't be able to start work for a day or two, but Lao Liu and his team have worked hard and need to fetch a lot of water to wash these people, especially those who have put in effort. They can't keep getting dirty for several days in a row, right?
At the beginning, Zhong Yuan hadn't noticed anything abnormal. Seeing Lao Liu and the others running over to fetch water time and time again, Zhong Yuan guessed that it must be for the archaeological team and washing up. After all, they could still hold on for a day or two, but over time, no one could stand it, let alone many female team members inside!
However, the next day, Zhong Yuan habitually wanted to see Professor Chao Liu and his team's excavation site, but when he scanned past, he found that something was wrong. There was no one left in the entire excavation, and everyone was chatting and playing cards in the campsite! Zhongyuan wouldn't think today is a day off, these people are giving themselves a break!
