"You're going to go out and look for it?" The tree and the doctor looked at each other.

Shu Kui nodded.

"It's a dense forest outside the stockade, what should I do if I get lost? Do you know what the herbs used as an antidote look like? If there is an antidote, he may not be able to live, do you know? Big Tree asked three questions in a row.

Shu Kui still nodded: "I know that there is an antidote that may not be able to save Uncle Wang, but, no matter what, I have to give it a try, watching him wait for death, I can't do it." After I go out, I will make marks along the way, and if I get lost, it will be my life, and I will do my best with a clear conscience. As for what the herbs used as an antidote look like, I hope the doctor will tell me. ”

These words were said calmly and clearly, and the big tree and the doctor looked at each other again.

"Let's go, let's go and ask the owner of the village." The big tree tilted his head towards the door and walked out first.

After a while, the doctor came back alone, handed Shu Kui a photo, and gestured as he spoke: "Go, the owner of the village agreed." This is the antidote, the nine-leaf flower, which is about this tall, generally grows in the shade, and the whole plant should be, including the roots, the more complete the better. ”

Shu Kui took it, and after taking a closer look, he set off immediately.

Walking to the gate, the big tree waited there and gave a bag: "Shovel, compass or something, do you know how to use a compass?" ”

Shu Kui was stunned: "No." ”

The big tree laughed helplessly: "No? Wouldn't you dare to go deep in the mountains and old forests to find herbs? I thought you were so good at surviving in the wild, so you were so confident. ”

Shu Kui didn't say anything, and he was wondering if he was too reckless.

Seeing her like this, Dashu squeezed out of the slightly open gate, asked Shu Kui to come over, and followed him.

"Do you know where the nine-leaf flower grows?" Shu Kui thought he was going to lead the way.

"I don't know." The big tree head said without replying, "I just heard that there is an area in front of it, where a lot of herbs grow, and the nine-leaf leaf flower is not a precious plant, it is quite common, and there should be one there." ”

"Is that area big?" Shu Kui began to drum in his heart.

"I don't know." The foot of the tree kept going fast, "I just heard. ”

After a pause, he said: "There is a flare gun in the bag, two flares, if something happens, send a signal, I will go in to find you." ”

Shu Kui thanked him, put the bag into a fanghuan, and said nothing.

Not long after, the two arrived at their destination, Shu Kui looked up, and saw a large green land in front of him, stretching out, I don't know how big the range is.

"How so?" She crouched down and looked at the clear dividing line between the green and the brown earth beneath her feet.

"I don't know, it's been like this for a long time." The big tree replied indifferently, not surprised, "There are lush plants and trees in it, and there are many animals - you have ink fragrant wood on you, snakes and insects dare not approach, just be careful of the others." ”

"Other ......" Shu Kui immediately thought of Xingtian Lynx.

"Do you want to go in?" The big tree turned his head and looked like he was about to smile or not.

"Get in." The matter has come to this point, even the sword mountain and the sea of fire have to break through.

Big tree put his hands around his chest, saying that he could only help here.

Shu Kui took a deep breath and stepped on the green.

Indeed, as the big tree said, all the plants here are unusually tall, and the green growth is excellent, and there are many small animals shuttling back and forth, no matter where they go, there is a sound of the rope.

Shu Kui pinched the photo with one hand and held the fishbone dagger with the other, observing the side of the road while paying nervously attention to the surrounding qiē.

After a while, the nine-leaf flower did not appear, fortunately, the beast did not appear either, and the most in the forest was the gray rabbit, which jumped and jumped very lively.

Shu Kui was tired of walking, slowly relaxed his vigilance, and saw a big smooth stone not far in front of him, so he wanted to go over and rest for a while.

Who knows, before it got close, the stone suddenly disintegrated, and after a closer look, it turned out to be countless palm-sized moths, which should have been stimulated by the smell of ink fragrant wood, and they scattered in all directions.

Shu Kui saw that he was furious, and he was busy gathering his mind, and continued to observe the plants on the side of the road, trying his best to find the nine-leaf flower, and leaving this place as much as possible.

After walking for a while, all of a sudden, the birds fluttered up, and the gray rabbits ran away in a panic, as if they were frightened by something.

Shu Kui was even more nervous than before, and he was extremely careful with every step, not even daring to breathe.

At this moment, she saw a woman staggering out from the depths of the woods, her clothes were in tatters, her exposed skin was covered with blood, her head hung down, and her steps were staggering.

"Want to help?" Shu Kui's first reaction was that she should be in trouble.

The woman didn't speak, but walked in a very strange way, stopping an arm's length away from Shu Kui.

"Want to help?" Shu Kui asked again.

The woman slowly raised her hand, paused for a moment, and suddenly slapped it vigorously.

Shu Kui was startled, and instinctively dodged away, but he was still a little slower, and was rubbed by the woman's palm, and suddenly, a layer of skin was removed from one shoulder.

She inhaled in pain, hurried around to the back of the big tree next to her, and when she looked around, she saw that the woman had raised her head.

What was revealed was a fragmented face, a black hole in the nose, mutilated lips, a blur of flesh and blood on the chin, cheekbones, and forehead, white bones visible, and a gray layer of gray in the eyes—a corpse.

Shu Kui was dumbfounded, and his mind went blank.

The woman didn't hesitate at all, turned her head, identified the direction where Shu Kui was, and raised her hand again to pounce.

Shu Kui stepped back, tripped under his feet, and sat down on the ground, just dodging the attack.

The woman's palm fell into the air and slapped on the tree, leaving a deep palm print on the trunk, which shook the branches and leaves, and the leaves fell to the ground like snow.

Shu Kui was so scared that he didn't even bother to stand up, but kept retreating and retreating with his hands and feet.

Step by step, the woman approached, still staggering, looking indescribably strange and terrifying.

Shu Kui was so panicked that she ran out of ideas, picked up everything she could touch and kept throwing it over, but it was conceivable that this kind of Cheng Dù's resistance was of no avail, and the woman let the stones and branches hit her body, and her movement was not hindered at all.

Shu Kui saw that it was not a way to retreat all the time, so he raised the fishbone dagger that had never let go in front of him, staring at the woman's every move, intending to wait for an opportunity to attack.

The woman looked at her, put her foot on the ground, and pounced again.

At this time, Shu Kui had his back against the big tree, and if he wanted to retreat again, it was too late, so he could only send the fishbone dagger forward and close his eyes.

The next second, she felt the dagger seem to be pierced into the cotton, and then, a fishy smell permeated.

When she opened her eyes, she found that the dagger had pierced a large hole under the woman's ribs, and the black liquid that flowed from the hole was viscous as if it were tarry, not much, but it smelled extremely unpleasant.

Seeing that the blow was successful, Shu Kui had a little confidence, and his legs and feet also had strength, and he could stand up.

But the woman didn't care about this wound at all, and after a pause, she started to do it again.

Shu Kui flashed and retreated, unconsciously forced into an open field.

At this point, the woman stopped moving.

Shu Kui peeked around and saw that his feet were covered with dry bones, and there was a large stone more than a person tall and like a screen on his side, and there was a faint chirping sound coming from behind.

And the woman let out a strange scream of "quack", and then, she deceived herself again and drove Shu Kui to the stone.

Shu Kui expected some monster to jump out from behind the stone, so he hurriedly shortened his body and slashed down at the woman's calf.

In fact, the meat there was almost rotten, the bones were crispy, and the dagger was unusually sharp, and this time, half of the leg was directly removed.

Seeing this scene, Shu Kui was even more confident, thinking of taking advantage of the victory to pursue and cut off the other leg.

No, the woman moved quickly, and after struggling on the ground for a few moments, she suddenly rose into the air, as if there was an invisible line in the air, lifting her straight up.

This situation made Shu Kui feel cold, his legs couldn't stop shivering, and he suddenly thought of the signal gun in Yifang Huan, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, and hurriedly took it out, regardless of whether it was a shot in 3721.

In the panic, the shot was far from the target, and the flare screamed and burst into red light in mid-air, causing the woman to fall to the ground and look up.

Seeing this, Shu Kui was overjoyed, and hurriedly seized this fleeting opportunity and stabbed her in the neck.

It was a stab with all his might, and the dagger was inserted into the carrion until it had no handle, and the tarry black liquid gushed out and dripped, and the smell in the air was pungent, and Shu Kui almost wanted to vomit.

The woman shook twice, pulled out the dagger and threw it away, and wanted to rise into the air, but after a few attempts, she could only jump on one leg, and she couldn't fly.

She was very unwilling, and she wanted to pounce on Shu Kui again.

Shu Kui had already prepared, but she was still short and cut off her other leg.

The woman who lost both legs immediately fell to the ground, but her hands were still flexible and free, and she almost grabbed Shu Kui's arm while pulling wildly.

Shu Kui's heart was on fire, so he simply didn't do anything, and stabbed the woman's head and body all the time.

The woman wanted to fight back, but her strength became smaller and smaller, and gradually, she finally stopped making a move and died completely.

Shu Kui let out a sigh of relief, retreated to the side and sat down, wiped his sweat, and wanted to take a good rest.

"Tuk tuk", suddenly, out of nowhere came two soft sounds, in the quiet woods, it seemed particularly abrupt.

Shu Kui's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he looked everywhere, but he didn't find anything.

At this moment, behind the big rock, the chirping sound became louder and louder, as if it was an urgent call.

"Tuk tuk", two more sounds.

Shu Kui was stunned for a moment, feeling that it seemed to come from a woman, so he cautiously moved closer and observed it carefully.

And just when she saw the woman's face, one of her eyes suddenly changed, and the original gray layer disappeared, replaced by a round, blood-red pupil in the middle of the white of the eye.
