After Mo Tong and Qin Xiusheng packed their luggage, they set off early the next morning and rushed towards southern Xinjiang.

Along the way, the two did not encounter accidents and arrived in southern Xinjiang smoothly. But Qin Xiusheng knew very well in his heart that the journey here could only be regarded as the real beginning.

According to what Su Jin said, if you want to find a way to remove the Gu technique, you must go deep into the mountains of southern Xinjiang. Only those villages who live in seclusion in the mountains can find out about Gu arts.

Qin Xiusheng bought a map, and the two prepared enough food and water to head towards the mountain.

"Mo Tong, have you ever been to Southern Xinjiang before?" Qin Xiusheng frowned slightly when he saw the situation around him, and asked Mo Tong beside him.

Although Qin Xiusheng had already traveled to the mountains several times, the mountains in southern Xinjiang gave him a completely different feeling from his previous trip.

Hearing Qin Xiusheng's question, Mo Tong shook his head lightly and replied, "This is also the first time I have come to Southern Xinjiang. I heard that corpses and Gu worms are popular here, although most of them are legends, but it's better to be careful. ”

Qin Xiusheng nodded, what Mo Tong said was exactly what he had been worried about. They know very little about southern Xinjiang, and it is difficult for them to find the right way to deal with a critical situation in a timely manner.

The two men walked forward in the mountains. Qin Xiusheng looked at the map in his hand and couldn't help frowning slightly, "The map is interrupted here, it seems that even the locals of southern Xinjiang rarely enter the mountains." ”

Mo Tong nodded and said, "After all, there have always been all kinds of strange legends circulating in Southern Xinjiang, so few people will venture into the mountains. ”

Without the map, the next trip would be even more difficult for Qin Xiusheng and Mo Tong. On the previous road, it was precisely because of the reminder of the map that they were able to accurately avoid the hidden poisonous swamp and the places infested by large beasts. Now that the map is broken, they can only rely on their own observation to dodge. That's not all, they didn't even know where the village was located in the mountains, so they could only stumble around with their eyes closed.

"Let's take it one step at a time, and if we can't find the village despite the high consumption of food and water, we will have to return temporarily. A look of solemnity appeared on Mo Tong's face, and she could have a hunch that the next trip would become extremely difficult.

Qin Xiusheng nodded, although their time was very tight, they could only do what Mo Tong said. In such a deep mountain, if they run out of food and water, it will be devastating for them.

The two of them did not speak again, and walked forward in silence. Mo Tong had been carefully observing the situation around her, her experience in surviving in the wild was much higher than that of Qin Xiusheng, and she could always detect danger in advance and then dodge.

The two of them went until the sun went down, but they still didn't find a single human habit. Mo Tong watched the sun set and the light in the forest became darker and darker, and said, "That's it for today, let's rest in place." ”

Qin Xiusheng hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "The sun hasn't completely set yet, let's move forward a little more." After all, there is not much time left for us, and we can take away a little bit and wait until the sun has completely set before stopping to rest. ”

Hearing Qin Xiusheng's words, Mo Tong couldn't help frowning slightly, "We are not familiar with the situation here at all, the light in the forest is too dark now, and it is very likely that we will not be able to detect the danger in time." ”

Although Qin Xiusheng understood Mo Tong's worries very well, he had no other choice. We must find a way to remove the Gu technique before the Federation of Doctors starts, otherwise the entire medical community will fall into their hands. At that time, let alone Lin Xiran and the others, even he and Mo Tong may not be able to escape the poisonous hands of the Doctors' Federation.

Seeing Qin Xiusheng insisting on moving forward, Mo Tong sighed and nodded slightly, "Slow down a bit, be careful of the dangers hidden in the shadows." ”

Facing Mo Tong's reminder, Qin Xiusheng nodded and continued to walk forward in the forest. As he walked, he thought about Lin Xiran's affairs, and was a little absent-minded for a while.

As he was walking, Qin Xiusheng suddenly felt the emptiness under his feet, and his heart beat violently, wanting to retract his feet.

Qin Xiusheng's reaction was already fast, but it was still too late. Qin Xiusheng was momentarily distracted and accidentally stepped into the swamp covered with dead leaves. One of his feet was deep inside, and he subconsciously wanted to pull it out. With Qin Xiusheng's movements, instead of successfully pulling his foot out of the swamp, he sank deeper.

"Don't move!" Discovering Qin Xiusheng's abnormality, Mo Tong hurriedly shouted. Although it was the first time that Motong had encountered a swamp, he had learned about it before.

If you accidentally get stuck in a swamp, struggling will only make you sink deeper. In this case, the best option is to stay still and let your companion find a way to pull you out of the swamp.

When Qin Xiusheng heard Mo Tong's reminder, it was already too late, because of his struggle, his feet in the swamp sank deeper and deeper, causing his body to lose his balance, and the whole person fell into the swamp diagonally.

Qin Xiusheng felt his heart beating violently, although he had already kept his body motionless as Mo Tong said. However, under the influence of its own weight, it still slowly sank downward.

Seeing that half of Qin Xiusheng's body had been swallowed up by the swamp, Mo Tong was anxious for a while. She wanted to rush over and immediately pull Qin Xiusheng out of the swamp, but she knew very well in her heart that not only would she not be able to pull Qin Xiusheng out, but she would also let herself fall.

Taking a deep breath, Mo Tong calmed herself down. She glanced around, and finally found a wooden stick in the corner.

Mo Tong hurriedly picked up the wooden stick and stretched the other end towards Qin Xiusheng who was stuck in the swamp, "Grab the wooden stick, I'll pull you up." ”

At this time, Qin Xiusheng was already a little panicked, he heard Mo Tong's words, and without hesitation, he reached out and grabbed the wooden stick.

Seeing Qin Xiusheng reach out and grasp the wooden stick, Mo Tong took a deep breath and dragged the wooden stick hard, wanting to pull Qin Xiusheng up from the swamp.

Although Mo Tong had already exerted all the strength of his body, Qin Xiusheng's body was sinking too deeply, and it was very difficult to drag. It took a long time before Qin Xiusheng was pulled out of the swamp a little.

Ink Hitomi was anxious, due to the excessive force, her hand had already appeared a long wound under the friction of the rough bark. However, Mo Tong didn't feel any pain at all.
