Chapter 13 Millennial He Shou Wu
Hongyu hid behind the backpack, covering her eyes with her claws, and secretly looked at Chu Yun'er who was dancing and wiping from the claws with great disdain, not understanding which tendon she was wrong, just like the green snake spirit it once peeked in the Valley of Ten Thousand Souls, enchanting as if it had no bones, and its flesh was so numb that it shivered.
Although the temperature was high in the autumn afternoon, the sudden gust of wind still made Chu Yun'er, who had just gotten up from the lake, shiver, and realized that what she had done seemed to be a little too much, Chu Yun'er hurriedly got dressed, put away her things as if nothing happened, grabbed the red jade that was still in a daze, and walked towards another mountain by the lake.
Chu Yun'er, who left, didn't know that the temperature of the hot spring water she had soaked in finally returned to normal temperature, and the white mist on the lake surface gradually dissipated, turning into an ordinary lake.
The ancient trees in the forest are towering, dark and can't see a trace of sunlight, the mountain road is overgrown, Chu Yun'er skimmed a thick branch to open the way in front, and the boss behind seemed to have calculated the distance, and every step jumped behind Chu Yun'er with great precision, no more than Chu Yun'er, and would not bump into Chu Yun'er.
Hongyu, who has always been quiet, was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood at this time, and it seemed to be respectful and afraid of Lord Boss, when Lord Boss was a few steps away, it rushed up to Chu Yun'er's shoulder with an excited "squeak" call, and when Lord Boss jumped behind Chu Yun'er, it was afraid to crawl to the inside of Chu Yun'er's coat, and its sharp grip poked Chu Yun'er's coat out of small holes.
Shaking her head speechlessly, Chu Yun'er became more and more sure that Hongyu should not be much old, just a naïve child, "You just toss hard, we are going to sleep in the wild again tonight, hey...... I forgot, you were born in the mountains and forests."
I don't know how long I walked, the forest was getting darker and darker, night fell, the depths of the forest were dark and hazy, for the sake of safety, Chu Yun'er chose a stout tree, got rid of the weeds within two meters around the big tree, and then sat down with her back against the tree, rubbing her sore calves, Chu Yun'er sighed with emotion, how far did she go, it was dark, shuttling in the forest full of weeds and not seeing the light of day, and I didn't know if the direction was right? The top of the head is pressed with black pressure, like a black giant cauldron that will fall down at any time, and it is so dull that people feel extremely depressed.
There was not much food, Chu Yun'er only ate one fruit, and Hongyu, who had an excellent appetite, ate half a can of beef, and snuggled in Chu Yun'er's arm with satisfaction. Lord Boss stood quietly beside Chu Yun'er like a guardian saint, his head tilted slightly, and his pale and stiff face was facing above the forest. The top of the forest was like a black curtain, and the night sky could not be seen, not even a trace of starlight could be seen, Chu Yun'er didn't know what Lord Boss was looking at intently.
As the night deepened, the forest seemed to be filled with a layer of white mist, and the sounds of birds and crickets had stopped, and it was unusually silent, and through the layers of trees, occasionally the cries of wild beasts from the distant mountains could be heard, and the whining sound seemed to be a low cry of pain.
The temperature difference between day and night was large, and Chu Yun'er under the tree was getting colder and colder, so she wrapped her coat tightly, hugged the red jade tightly, and curled her body into a ball.
Sometimes there is a shuddering commotion in the surrounding grass, and the vigilant Chu Yun'er's heart immediately raised her throat, she turned on the flashlight and held the dagger and looked at the grass that was constantly moving away in horror, and constantly regretted that she did not spend the night in the tree like last night, and moved her body to the boss for a few more points, compared to the boss adult, the dark forest is more terrifying, and it seems that as long as she feels that there is someone around her, she has more courage, and there is not so much fear in her heart.
The next day, Chu Yun'er woke up from the harassment of Hongyu, and when she opened her eyes, she met Hongyu's shining eyes with expectation, the sky was already bright, and the night was spent safely, Chu Yun'er sat up and found that she had fallen asleep on the ground last night with the boss's boots on her pillow.
Stretching her waist and curling up her body all night under the activity, Chu Yun'er and Hongyu had breakfast, then picked up the branch that opened the way and continued to grope into the depths of the forest.
The morning air is fresh, not as dull as the afternoon, and the leaves of the plants in the forest are still hanging with clear dewdrops, like a sea of green. The woods don't seem to have fully woken up from the night's slumber and are quiet, with the occasional bird call or two.
The grass here is so deep that it can almost submerge people, Chu Yun'er used branches to pull out layers of grass curtains, and shuttled through the grass one foot at a time, hoping to pass through this forest quickly.
Hongyu, who had been squatting on her shoulder, suddenly swooped into the grass, and Chu Yun'er, who had no time to react, watched the red figure disappear into the green sea, "Hongyu, Hongyu, where are you", Chu Yun'er stopped in place and called out loudly to Hongyu, and after a while, Hongyu's anxious "squeak" cry came from afar, patrolling Hongyu's scream, Chu Yun'er didn't care if the grass curtain of Qi height would scratch her face, so she hurriedly ran to the place where the sound came, and the boss followed.
In a low-lying mountain nest, Hongyu Si grabbed the stem of a light green vine plant, and a little milky white root was exposed in the soil at the end of the stem, and after a closer look, it was found that the white roots in the soil seemed to be dragging the stem of the ground into the mud, and Hongyu grinned on the vine, looking at Chu Yun'er "squeak" and shouted: "Hurry up, it's going to run away."
After a cursory inspection, Chu Yun'er stepped on the vine of the white radish, pulled out the milky white root with one hand, took out the dagger with the other, and dug it around the white radish, and Hongyu also stretched out her grip and vigorously gouged the surrounding soil. The forest that has never seen the sun is damp, the soil is soft, a person and an animal work together and spend half an hour finally digging out the things in the soil, it turned out to be He Shou Wu, Chu Yun'er once inadvertently read the description of He Shou Wu in a book, the plant vines in his hands are extremely long, small petal-shaped leaves, the roots are as long as an adult's palm, the shape is like a person standing with both feet and hands open and upright, the whole body is milky white with a faint luster, and the surface is smooth without a trace of soil.
"Hmm...... Ahhh......h
Chu Yun'er sighed with palpitations, fortunately, the boss responded quickly, otherwise she would have dug for a long time in vain. She squatted at the feet of the boss, stepped on a vine exposed outside the black cotton boots, patted the leg hidden in the dark brocade robe, raised a smile and said, "Boss, you can go away."
Lord Boss didn't seem to hear Chu Yun'er's words, not only did his legs that were as firm as stone pillars not move, Chu Yun'er also found that the vines under his feet were withering rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than a minute, the originally light green and shiny vines turned yellow in an instant, like seedlings that had died due to drought, and bursts of black gas came out from the edges of the black cotton boots that stepped on the vines. What's the situation?
