Chapter 37: Chased
Hearing Cui Zhiyi say that he had eaten a fruit before, Cui Zhiwei was really a little confused. What are we going to do now? Is it really impossible to make him vomit?
Then I heard Cui Zhiyi explain with a red face there: "I didn't mean to steal food, I'm too hungry, I'm afraid I won't have the strength to deal with poisonous snakes." ”
"Second brother, you don't have to explain. Cui Zhiwei said, "Don't say that you eat one, even if you eat it all, we won't blame you." If he hadn't taken the risk, she and Cui Zhili wouldn't have been able to pick up those fruits.
"But what are we going to do now?" Cui Zhiyi was also really panicked, knowing that it was better not to pick those few fruits, and it would not lead to so many follow-up things.
"If the thunder strikes down, you can try it with a dagger in the soil?" Cui Zhiwei didn't know if this trick could lead the thunder into the soil? At this time, she hated that she had not been able to cultivate well in her previous life and this life, if she could control the aura between heaven and earth like her master, would she be able to help her second brother survive this catastrophe? Of course, if that were the case, she would not have been killed by lightning in this life.
Just when the thunderstorm struck down, Cui Zhiyi put on a posture and waited to greet them, but the thunderstorm did not fall to them, but fell not far away, but there was still a short distance from them. Later, the three siblings heard the screams of an adult man.
"That's ......" Cui Zhiyi looked at Cui Zhiwei suspiciously.
Cui Zhiwei's sense of direction is not bad, "It seems that we picked the fruit just now." Then he asked, "Second brother, did you still have fruit that you didn't finish picking just now?"
"There should be one or two more that are far away from being picked. ”
Cui Zhiwei nodded, "That should be it." "Sure enough, these fruits are not ordinary, but I don't know what kind of fruit they are?
"What are we going to do now?" Cui Zhili asked Cui Zhiwei in a low voice.
"Hurry up and bring the fruit back to the cave. ”
"Will it be struck by lightning?" The poisonous snake that died on the ground, that is called a miserable!
"No, it won't. Cui Zhiwei is very sure of this.
"That's fine. Cui Zhili didn't want to throw the fruit here like this.
"Second brother, third brother, let's hurry up. Cui Zhiwei glanced at the place where he had just been struck by lightning and said, "There should be people here, don't let them find out that we took the fruit." ”
"Good. After the two answered, they quickly collected the fruit with Cui Zhiwei.
Before leaving, Cui Zhiyi pointed to the poisonous snake and asked, "Can you eat this?" Although it is a little burnt and black, it smells very fragrant. "I was hungry for a day or two, but I was so hungry that I felt even more fragrant when I saw the meat.
"This should be edible. Cui Zhiwei looked at Cui Zhili after speaking.
Cui Zhili sniffed, "It's very fragrant." ”
Cui Zhiwei glared at him, "I didn't mean that, I asked you if this is poisonous?"
"Didn't you say poisonous snakes?" Cui Zhili asked rhetorically.
"You mean you can't tell?" Cui Zhiwei was a little disappointed.
"Not really. Cui Zhili frowned slightly, "It's that some places are poisonous, and some places are not poisonous." "He couldn't say it either.
"Okay, I see. Cui Zhiwei waved his hand, "Just say whether the snake meat part is poisonous or not?"
Looking a little disgusting, Cui Zhili still stepped forward and sniffed it. Then he pointed to most of the snake's body except for the tongue and said, "These places should not be poisonous." ”
"Okay. Let's not take it all away, just cut some meat and take it away. "This poisonous snake is not small, and the three of them can't lift it, and this method is the safest.
However, when it came to cutting snake meat, the main force was Cui Zhiyi. But at first, he was also a little scared, and his hands were a little shaky.
"Second brother, you are going to be a general in the future, how can you be afraid?" Cui Zhili launched a flickering offensive in order to be able to eat snake meat, "Don't say that you want to cut snake meat, even if you kill snakes, you have to do it, and it is more likely to kill the enemy." ”
With his flickering, Cui Zhiyi spontaneously became heroic, his hands stopped shaking, and his speed increased significantly. Because the meat is cooked, there is no difficulty. When it comes to loading these meats, it is a bit difficult, mainly because I don't know what to take?
"Third brother," Cui Zhiwei flickered, "The second brother is responsible for labor, are you also responsible for something?"
"What am I responsible for?" Cui Zhili felt that things were a little wrong.
"Take off your coat and wrap your meat. "She's the youngest, and she's a girl, so you can't use her for this.
"And what am I wearing?"
"When you're done eating the meat, I'll help you wash your clothes and still be able to wear them. ”
Cui Zhili looked at the snake meat and nodded, "Okay then." "Reluctantly. Don't look at your young age, I still feel a little shy when I take off my clothes in front of my second brother and sister.
After Cui Zhiwei said that someone would come over immediately, he didn't care about any shyness, and took off his clothes and handed them to Cui Zhiyi.
Anyway, it wasn't his own clothes, and Cui Zhiyi didn't feel distressed, so he put the snake meat in it and put a bag on his back, beckoning Cui Zhiwei and Cui Zhiyi to leave together.
Not long after they left, a group of people found it.
"You see, there's a burnt viper, and the flesh is gone, and someone must have been there. One of them pointed to the viper.
Another person followed, "Maybe it's a few thieves who took the rest of the holy fruit." From the traces left by the three siblings, it is not difficult to judge that they are several children.
The leader nodded, and then ordered, "See if there are any other clues?" and the people scattered with them.
Not long after, a person found a small fruit that Cui Zhiwei and a few of them had just accidentally dropped, and shouted: "I found it, it was indeed the holy fruit stolen by those bold thieves." "It was just speculation before, but now it's more certain.
Another said, "We've found three so far, and there should be six more in the hands of those thieves." ”
The leader was worried, "I'm afraid that the holy fruit has already been eaten by them." ”
"What are you going to do? Kill them?"
The leader shook his head, "Don't do it until it's clear." ”
"Is it really going to be cheaper, they can't do it? Our clan has been waiting for a hundred years, and there are still a few days before the holy fruit can ripen, but it was stolen by a few thieves. Not only did he feel sorry for these holy fruits, but he also felt sorry for the fact that the holy fruits were not ripe, and the medicinal effect would be greatly reduced.
"I'd better find them first, and we'll talk about the rest later. Said the man at the head.
"Holy Spirit Mountain is so big, they can't run far if they think about it. ”
The saddest thing is that the mark that Cui Zhiwei left for them to go back to the cave was quickly discovered by this group of people.
And Cui Zhiwei's three siblings found that someone had caught them and stumbled back to the cave, but the secret door was not opened. Only then did he realize that he had not agreed with Yan Jingnian before to let him open the secret door frequently. Seeing the group of people getting closer and closer to them, the hearts of the three siblings suddenly hung in their throats.
