Chapter 313: Blood, Traces

Thinking of this, Chu Nan's heart trembled suddenly.

If his guess was not wrong, then he really didn't understand, what was the situation that caused Ye Yao to climb this snow mountain? ?

Ye Yao is here to practice medicine, so there is no need to risk her life to go to some dangerous places.

However, when Chu Nan thought of this, he suddenly remembered something.

When he first came here, Chu Nan went to the temporary medical station, and there was a patient in it whose condition was quite serious, but fortunately, Chu Nan had always had two or three bottles of the best elixir on his body, which could be regarded as almost curing the other party's illness. But Chu Nan knew very well that if he was another doctor, he would not be able to treat his illness easily.

"Is it possible...... Sister Ye came to this deep mountain area to look for medicinal herbs?? ”

Realizing this, Chu Nan felt remorse in his heart!

He really should have given Sister Ye a few bottles of the best elixir early, so that she wouldn't have to risk herself to do such a stupid thing. It's a pity that when Chu Nan left the capital, he didn't know that Ye Yao was going to come here to practice medicine! Looking back now, before going to the keel, Ye Yao insisted on meeting herself, it is really very likely that she wanted to say goodbye to herself, right? ?

The more he thought of these things in his heart, the more uncomfortable Chu Nan felt.

If he can't find Ye Yao today, then this will become the most regretful pain in his heart for the rest of his life!!

Taking a deep breath, Chu Nan knew that he must not be distracted by pessimism now, otherwise, if he was not calm, the possibility of success in his rescue work would be greatly reduced again.

According to Ye Yao's kindness, it is really possible that she is here to find some medicinal herbs.

Because after the simple communication with those patients before, he vaguely knew that there has always been a rumor here, saying that there are some strange medicinal plants in the deep mountains, which can cure all kinds of diseases and bring the dead back to life.

This is of course an exaggeration, but it is not unfounded.

When I was young, my grandfather told me that in fact, the more unusual the climate and the more dangerous the place, the more likely it is to grow some strange plants that humans rarely know about now, and some of these plants may be made into very effective medicinal materials, and their medicinal effects are even more magical than that of Purple Blood Roland.

Chu Nan was convinced of this.

His heart quietly settled, and he had already run to the bottom of the snowy mountain.

Looking at the white expanse around him, Chu Nan recalled the information he had verified when he first came here and connected with the local rescue team.

In other words, Chu Nan came from the east, and there should be no signs of human movements on the north and south sides.

So......

Chu Nan raised his head and looked at the towering white snow-capped mountains, and he said secretly: "Right now, there is only this way!" ”

Thinking of this, Chu Nan began to climb upwards without saying a word.

In the lower part of the snow-capped mountain, the terrain is often relatively gentle, so for the time being, there is no need for any mountaineering tools, Chu Nan only needs to move forward steadily, and always pay attention to the movements around him, as well as any traces and clues that may be used to investigate.

…………

In this way, Chu Nan searched all the way, and when he walked for about five minutes.

Suddenly, in front of him, he saw a red bloodstain!!

"Well?!! - The ...... Is that?!! ”

Chu Nan's heart jumped suddenly, and he ran over quickly, and when he walked nearby, he saw clearly that these red blood stains had been added to the white snow to ooze some pits.

"These ...... It can't be Sister Ye's, right?!! ”

Chu Nan felt that his mind was a little blank in an instant, as if it had stopped in an instant, and for a moment his face was a little pale, but ...... Chu Nan saw the footprints next to the bloodstains, and Chu Nan's heart became even more solemn!

"These footprints are...... Snow leopard?!! ”

Chu Nan almost felt like he was going crazy at this moment!!

"It won't!! No, it won't!! ”

Chu Nan went up and quickly pinched the blood into his hand, then put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and rubbed it...... His heart hung high and fell suddenly!!

"Lucky...... Fortunately, this is snow leopard blood, not human blood! ”

Since he was a child, Chu Nan has known a little about the blood of many wild animals, at least, he can now tell the difference between animal and human blood.

"There are traces of snow leopard blood here, and there are some snow leopard footprints around the bloodstains. ――On this plateau, the snow leopard is almost close to the top of the food chain, and few other animals can inflict such harm on it. And there are no signs of animal fights around.

Other words......

It is possible that humans have caused harm to this snow leopard!!

Mankind......

"Sister Ye?!" Chu Nan had a hint of enlightenment in his heart.

He felt that he was getting closer and closer to Ye Yao's traces!

Thereupon......

He calmed down and carefully observed the footprints left by the snow leopard. Following these footprints, looking for a way for the snow leopard to leave.

In fact, it stands to reason that the snow leopard is an animal that does not like to leave its footprints.

A rare animal endemic to the western highlands, the snow leopard is beautiful and vigorous, with a gray coat and brown spots in the shape of roses, and its body is no more than 4 feet long. ――Because of the thick soft hair on the whole body and a thick and long tail, it looks very scary. It is cautious by nature, secretive in its actions, and generally avoids people and does not take the initiative to attack people. As you walk, use your tail to clean the footprints behind you, leaving no traces.

It mainly feeds on small animals such as wild goats and roe deer. And once there is a conflict with human beings, it is often because human beings take the initiative to provoke it.

But Chu Nan thinks that Sister Ye should not take the initiative to attack it, it should be that this snow leopard misunderstood the intentions of humans after seeing humans.

Now that this snow leopard has left footprints, it is possible to ...... It's because it's injured, so it doesn't have enough strength to take care of its footprints.

But after Chu Nan followed for a while, he found that the footprints were gone, and it should be that the snow leopard realized the problem with his tracks. But the bloodstains it shed along the way made it reveal its whereabouts along the way.

In this way, it took almost twenty minutes to track.

Chu Nan ...... Finally found it!!

In a position halfway up the mountain, Chu Nan suddenly found this snow leopard!!

It was hovering over the shocking wound on its leg, and in front of it was a cave blocked by a large rock. Although the snow leopard is not very large, it cannot get into it because the stone crevice is slightly smaller.

But Chu Nan's eyes lit up, and his intuition told him......

There must be someone in this cave!!

And...... It is extremely likely to be Ye Yao!!
