Chapter 45: He was shocked

The roar was neither human nor beastly, and it was indescribably weird. Lao Du, who was sitting on the maple leaf ground, changed his face, stood up abruptly and shouted, "Savage?!" ”

"It won't be met by the Ling brothers and sisters, right?" The insurance salesman looked in the direction of the cliff and said worriedly: "Although the peacock girl is disgusting, it is a pity to be eaten by a wild man, I should have sold her an insurance sooner......"

Yun Kai shook his head and didn't speak. This thing is strange inside and out, the brother and sister have light skills of unknown origin, and now they are mysteriously missing, they are really going to meet a wild man, who is dead and who lives is not known. Yunkai's purpose is to collect medicine, and he encountered this strange thing as soon as he entered the mountain, although he didn't say it, he was a little drumming in his heart.

Among the three people in the line, Lao Du has been a hunter, and his body is more flexible than ordinary people, Yan Xiaoyi has some fist and foot skills, I don't know how the light skills are, Yunkai's light skills can only be regarded as improvised, and he has not yet had the ability to quickly climb the cliff to see what is going on, and now the brothers and sisters of the Ling family have disappeared mysteriously, and what happened on the top of the cliff, the three of them can only speculate in doubt, and then continue on the road.

After not hurrying away, Lao Du took a machete and walked in front to open the way. The sheep intestine trail, which is rarely walked, has long been covered by dense bushes, and it is necessary to be careful to avoid making mistakes, and it is necessary to cut the thorny thorns to leave, and in more than an hour, the three of them have walked two or three kilometers away, but Lao Du, who opened the road, is exhausted.

Yan Xiaoyi took the machete and replaced Lao Du's position. The three of them took turns to open the way, and after about two or three hours, Yun Kai suddenly said in a loud voice: "You guys are resting here for a while, I'll go pick some medicinal herbs...... and walk towards a bush of medicinal herbs not far away, picking some trumpet-shaped white flowers and thorny ball-shaped fruits back.

Yan Xiaoyi sat on the side of the road resting, smelling the dizzying fragrance of flowers, and asked curiously, "This Shenma herb?" ”

"White Mandala." Yun Kai put away the herbs and replied, "Have you watched "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"? The valley of despair in the novel is full of love flowers, and the poison of love flowers can only be solved by the broken intestine grass, which is what it is talking about......"

"Too young, too simple, brother no longer believes in love!" Yan Xiaoyi was disappointed, it turned out that the legendary poignant love flower was the inconspicuous wildflower in front of her, and her pure heart was deeply deceived. "Romantic love flowers are all this thing, Nima is all over the hillside, how can it be embarrassing?"

Lao Du, a native of the country, interjected: "We call it a drunken flower, it is poisonous, and cattle and sheep will not touch it." Legend has it that after the sorcerer on the side of Wushan let people drink it, they can use witchcraft to control people's minds, and you will do whatever you want, and do whatever you want......"

"Nightclub artifact, worthy of the legendary love flower!" Yan Xiaoyi immediately changed his opinion of the mandala, and said with praise: "Love is for doing rather than talking, everyone is so busy these years - drunken wine is much more reliable than g water, will you be worthy of Yunda Pharmacist?" ”

"I'm drunk too. You don't know witchcraft, so it's useless to take drunken wine? Yun Kai looked at Yan Xiaoyi and said disdainfully: "That wine has only one effect in your hands, that is, after drinking it, you can't stop laughing." ”

In Yunkai's cognition, drunken wine is not a folk rumor but modern medical technology, and the initiator is the goddess peak in the Three Wonders of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The woman of the goddess peak, the old and the young are all ** rights activists, the mysterious witch doctor's technique is passed on to women but not to men, and when they need offspring, they borrow seeds with intoxication, Yunkai can't understand this at all - they are still in the age of Shenma, Nima really thinks she is a goddess, asexual reproduction, dear? So his attitude towards those crazy women has always been respectful and far away......

Shennong's Houshan is worthy of being the holy land of medicine, the three of them went all the way, Yunkai picked a lot of poisonous herbs, mandala, broken intestine grass, heavenly fairy, etc., and even found a few rare strains of Amari, this ancient herb is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, he originally thought it was extinct, but he didn't expect to meet it here.

Yun Kai felt a little proud in his heart, although he hadn't found the Ice Flame Flower yet, but accidentally discovering a species that had been confirmed extinct was also a big surprise. He was reluctant to pick these rare herbs by the roots, only picked a few red ramie flowers and ripe fruits, and planned to take the fruits back to the Butterfly Valley to plant them when he had time, and add a new record to the "Five Poisons Sutra", and by the way, he had to add a note: "Discover people, Yunkai." ”

Accidents always happen inadvertently, and Yan Xiaoyi, who was walking in front, was bitten by a poisonous snake. The creature was only concerned with chopping the thorn bushes, not caring about a dead branch in front of him, and when he pulled the branch aside, the "branch" suddenly jumped up, bit his arm and did not let go, and he screamed in pain.

Yun Kai hurriedly stepped forward and pinched the root of the "branch", the "branch" couldn't help but let go, leaving a pair of clear tooth marks on Yan Xiaoyi's arm, and there was bright red blood flowing out at the beginning, but it turned into black blood in a blink of an eye.

"Dry sticks!" Lao Du anxiously shouted: "It's over, it's over, this thing is highly poisonous!" ”

Yan Xiaoyi's face turned purple, and he immediately stretched out his arm in front of Yun Kai, begging pitifully. Yun Kai ignored him, took out a small glass bottle from his pocket, pinched open the fangs of the dry wood stick, forcibly squeezed out a few drops of venom at the mouth of the bottle, tightened the mouth of the bottle and carefully put it into the backpack.

The dry sticks that had been squeezed through the venom were lazily motionless, probably about to enter a long hibernation, but they were inadvertently harassed by Yan Xiaoyi. Whether it is a person or a snake, just want to sleep and be woken up, no one will have a good temper, not to mention that someone pinched his neck and picked his throat and eyes, it was not Yan Xiaoyi who caught fire, but a dry firewood stick, Yunkai saw that the unlucky snake was really pitiful, so he threw his hand into the grass in the distance.

Yan Xiaoyi begged anxiously: "Big brother, if you don't make a move, I'll hang up—I'll call you brother, okay?" ”

Yun Kai opened the medicine bag in his backpack, turned out the antidote powder from a pile of medicine bottles and sprinkled it on Yan Xiaoyi's wound, wrapped gauze around him, and said after cleaning up: "Remember that you owe me a life, you don't need to thank you for your kindness!" ”

"Oh, this is a work injury, okay! Brother risked his life to accompany you to collect medicine, does he even have medical insurance? Yan Xiaoyi, who became lively again, lost the woodcutter and walked back, chattering endlessly: "Brother is now an injured person, and he has the right to enjoy labor protection, so you ......can open the way."

Yun Kai clenched his hands into fists, stretched out his middle finger and pointed down, gestured with disdain, picked up the machete and continued on his way.

Lao Du, who walked at the end, looked at the two of them in amazement. A second commodity who does not treat dry firewood sticks as a poisonous snake, and a strange person who does not treat poison as a serious illness, solved the terrifying poisonous snake in the eyes of the locals in a conversation and laughter, and the expression on Lao Du's face can only be described in one sentence: he was shocked at that time.

After walking for a long time, Lao Du came back to his senses and said with admiration on his face: "Yun ...... Doctor Yun, what kind of medicine are you so powerful? There is no cure for dry firewood sticks here, and a bite will kill people......"

"I'll go back and leave you some medicinal powder, and if someone is bitten again, you can use it to save your life." Yun Kai said casually: "What other powerful poisonous snakes do you have here?" ”

"Thank you very much!" Lao Du hurriedly thanked him and said: "There is also a poisonous snake called the five-step snake, if it bites, the five-step snake will die." This is not the most poisonous, the most poisonous is the cockscomb snake......"

"There is a mountain called Jigongling in the old forest of Wanshan, which is named after the cockscomb snake. The cockscomb snake has a red crown on its head, and its cry is like that of a rooster, which is extremely venomous, moves quickly, and will fly in the air. Generally, it will not take the initiative to bite people, if it is accidentally provoked, the cockscomb will turn from red to purple, and jump up like a rooster to chase people to bite. It is said that if it jumps not as tall as you, it will turn around and run away, but if you don't grow tall enough or bend down and bow your head, you will die......"

Yan Xiaoyi listened to it with relish, and a strange snake with a rooster head or a rooster with a snake body popped up in his mind, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became, but this monster would only bully the dwarf It was very unkind, and he couldn't help but comment with emotion: "This god and horse world, even snakes have no discipline and no lower limit, and when they meet Gao Fu Shuai, they will be cowardly!" ”

Yunkai is not surprised by this. It is recorded in the "Five Poisons Sutra": "The cockscomb snake has a head like a rooster and a crown." More than a foot long, a few inches in circumference, spitting poisonous mist in the mouth, the middle will die, there is a ...... at the foot of Shennong Mountain" He must have never met the cockscomb snake, but relayed what others said. Lao Du didn't mention that the cockscomb snake has no poisonous fangs but relies on poisonous mist to hurt people, as for running away when he meets a tall man, it is obviously a rumor made up. The cockscomb snake, like the ramie grass, is almost extinct, and ordinary people will be unlucky when they encounter it, but Yunkai plans to find an opportunity to try his luck in Jigongling.

While the three of them were looking for a way forward, they chatted about the strange things in Shennongjia, and the sun soon set on the top of the west mountain. Yunkai finally realized that the road that Lao Du said before was bad - not the worst, only worse, in most of the day, he only walked out of ten kilometers, and at this speed, he couldn't walk out of Shennong's back mountain for a week.

According to the evil and powerful Murphy's Law, the more you worry about something bad happening, the more likely it is to happen – something worse is finally happening. Yun Kai hurriedly opened the way in front, stopped in another dense arrow and bamboo forest, and said suspiciously, "Did we pass by here just now?!" ”

Yan Xiaoyi, who had gauze wrapped around his arm, pointed to the branch that was cut down in front of him and said, "If it wasn't you cut it just now, someone walked by in front of you - there is no one else here, could it be the two brothers and sisters of the Ling family?" ”

Yun Kai brushed aside the dense bamboo leaves, revealing the obscured sheep intestine path, and after carefully examining the footprints, he shook his head and said, "A good news, a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" ”

"If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go - will you kill people if they are scary?"

"The good news is that the brothers and sisters who mysteriously disappeared did not come out of nowhere. The bad news is, we're lost! After Yun Kai finished speaking embarrassedly, he turned his head and asked, "When you set off from Yudu, did you buy personal accident insurance for the two of us?" ”

"Nima, can I use a dirty word?"

“……”

Lao Du, who caught up, heard the conversation between the two and immediately broke out in a cold sweat with fright. Unlike the two stupid and bold people from the city, Lao Du has heard a lot about this, and there are many hunters and medicine pickers in the mountains who have lost their way, and they all have palpitations when they mention it after escaping. It's nothing to get lost in the city, but in the deep mountains and old forests where there is no village in front of you and no store in the back, once you get lost, you may lose your life.

According to Lao Du's experience, the three of them cautiously continued to walk, but left marks along the way. Yun Kai looked for a way in front, and the two of them left and right, staring at the possible forks in the bamboo forest on both sides, walked two or three kilometers in a nervous atmosphere, and the three of them returned to the same place - the earliest mark, marked with the number "1".

Yan Xiaoyi sat on the ground with a slump of buttocks, and said dejectedly: "Malegobi, we have been spinning in the bamboo forest!" ”

Lao Du pursed his lips, his face pale.

"Ghost hits the wall! It's a ghost hitting the wall!! ”
