Chapter 149: Rock Climbing with Bare Hands
"No, you can't set fire!" Qiuli categorically rejected Qingyang Xiaocen's proposal, "It's winter now, the weather is dry and dry, if you set fire, sure the entire forest of Qiongshan will burn, such a large ancient forest, can't be destroyed like this, how many animals and precious medicinal materials are in it, besides, there are still many people counting on this forest to make a living, I have lived here for many years, and everyone in the local area follows the rules handed down by the ancestors, you treat it well, and it will repay you."

After speaking, Qiu Li raised his head and glanced at the forest and the sky reluctantly, his face full of emotion.
Muller also spoke out at this time to dissuade: "Yes, those of us who grew up on the seashore and in the mountains have a sense of reverence for the mountains, and today we hurt the wolf because we were forced to survive, and God can't blame it, but if we destroy the thousand-year-old forest because of this, we really shouldn't do it." ”
Bai Xiaoman glanced at Qingyang Xiaocen, and saw that he was also hesitant, guessing that he was just making a suggestion in a hurry, and everyone reminded him of this, and they also realized that something was wrong.
She is a new era person from the 21st century, and naturally knows more about the importance of protecting the environment, the ecological significance of this large forest and the significance of research, etc., and can say a lot, but she doesn't want to talk more when everyone is against it.
Qingyang Xiaocen raised his head, his eyes swept over her, and said to Mueller and Qiuli: "You are right, I am not thinking about it. ”
Qiu Li saw that he was relieved, so he proposed: "Otherwise, let's put the carcasses of these wolves here, and let's move on." ”
Qingyang Xiao Cen waved his hand: "I'm afraid it's not good, the wolf is the most vindictive animal, once they follow the smell to find the corpse of their companion, they will definitely take revenge on us, since you can't set it on fire, then bury it with soil instead." ”
Qiu Li objected again: "We have to hurry up to Nanfeng and come back before dark, otherwise we will all be in danger if we stay in the forest at night." ”
Qingyang Xiaocen shook his head: "Could it be that we just throw these corpses here at will?" ”
Catching a glimpse of Qiu Li's baggage, Bai Xiaoman proposed: "Qiu Li, didn't the Medicine King's mother-in-law give you a lot of bottles and cans before leaving?" Is there a medicine that can be sprinkled on the carcass of wolves to temporarily mask their scent? ”
After she said this, Qiu Li thought about it, and hurriedly took out a small white jade bottle from the baggage, and said: "This is the veterinary medicine that Master prepared for us, although there is no medicine that can cover the smell as Mrs. Qingyang said, but this flavor medicine is avoided by all beasts when they smell it on weekdays, and it will definitely not approach, it is more effective than covering the smell." ”
Qiu Li sprinkled a little bit on each wolf, and everyone only smelled a little pungent smell, which was not strong, seeing Bai Xiaoman's worried face, Qiu Li comforted: "You don't think it's very obvious when you smell it, but the animal smells enough." ”
Muller and Fang Jingzhuo hurried to get some soil, branches and dead leaves to cover the corpse, and everyone continued on their way.
The next journey was quite smooth, Qiu Li regretted that he didn't think of the beast repellent earlier, and he didn't expect that he would be attacked by the beast so soon as he entered the Nanfeng realm, this time he learned a lesson and sprinkled the medicine on everyone, so he avoided a lot of trouble, but they are always an outlier for this forest, and because of the power of the beast repellent drug, many beasts did not come forward, but it does not mean that they are not watching them from afar.
Bai Xiaoman asked Qiuli in horror: "How long does the effect of the veterinary medicine last?" ”
Qiu Li reluctantly said: "It shouldn't be very long, Master developed it back then, just for the convenience of going out, for emergency use, and later settled in the north peak near the foot of the mountain, where there are many fewer beasts, so it is not used much, and the formula has not been improved over the years, I guess the effect of the medicine can only last for a while." ”
Qingyang Xiaocen shook her hand: "It's enough for a while, we can sprinkle it again, even if it runs out, Qiuli must have other medicinal powders that can come in handy, right?" ”
The last sentence was asked by Qiu Li, and he originally wanted to shake his head, but after thinking about it again, he said: "Well, I still have detoxification powder here, and it must have similar medicinal effects, and it can be worth it for a while." ”
Bai Xiaoman's heart settled down a little, and he didn't ask any more questions, holding the lady's sword tightly in his hand, ready to desperately prepare at any time.
Qingyang Xiaocen noticed her nervousness, so he gently hugged her waist, let her get closer to his arms, and then smiled at her: "It's okay, we both have a great fortune, and no difficulties are a problem." ”
Bai Xiaoman nodded: "Well, you are my Great Lucky Star." ”
Along the way, Qiuli was always vigilant, checked it, and felt that the effect of the medicine was about to disappear, so he sprinkled it again, so that everyone could reach the foot of Nanfeng safely.
Bai Xiaoman raised his head and looked, the highest peak on the south peak is actually not very high, at most a hundred meters by visual inspection, but the danger is in danger, directly below the rock wall until the position where they are standing, there is a large dwarf bush, Qiu Li checked it, and said that this dwarf bush is very toxic and cannot be easily touched.
Moreover, the rock wall is like a lonely pillar, and it is smooth, and there is no point of strength around it, so if you want to go up, you can only rely on manpower in ancient times when there was no equipment such as helicopters.
While everyone was still thinking about what to do, Mueller stood up and announced in a calm tone, "I'll go up." ”
What? Bai Xiaoman looked up again, the smooth rock wall, even if he is a rock climber, he will suffer from not letting go of his hands and feet, right? Just kidding, if you hold it in one breath, you can jump at most ten meters, which is still the distance you can jump to the side on flat ground, and it may be more discounted if you go up in a straight line, and there is not even a place to ventilate, what does Muller rely on to get up?
Qingyang Xiaocen said Bai Xiaoman's doubts and worries with a clear heart.
Muller also looked at the rock wall, his eyes were far-reaching: "I grew up in the Ming Sea, I am a disciple of the Phantom Sea, I must have known it for a long time, I have been trained since I was a child, I have practiced everything, the Ming Sea is cold and seay, we have climbed the icicles, although it is not so high, but it is much smoother than this rock wall, presumably for me, it is not a difficult thing." ”
Mueller did not say that there is a fundamental difference between climbing icicles and the rock wall in front of him, that is, climbing icicles is someone pulling a rope on it, and there are protective measures, but at this time, it is climbing with bare hands, and the danger factor is doubled.
Bai Xiaoman was still worried, but Qingyang Xiaocen was moved by him, and directly made a decision: "Okay, it's up to you to try if you can climb up first, among the few of us, only you and I can cross the low bush in front of you and reach the foot of the rock wall, even if your hand is loose and falls, Jing Zhuo and I can make a response for you below, this kind of distance must not hurt you." ”
Mueller nodded: "Okay." ”
As soon as the words fell, Muller raised his breath and ran up, and the smooth rock wall was indeed full of resistance, but Muller relied on his martial arts skills and had experience in ice climbing, so although he was walking a little slower, he still kept rising. (To be continued.) )
