Misty Forest

The next day, he cut a day's gold-threaded red heart vine nearby, and it was estimated that ten pairs could be used for testing, so he threw it on the mine and transported it back to the stockade.

On the third day, he and Wu Poison sorted out the team together, brought a pair of tools, and set off for the Misty Forest.

The group ate and slept in the open, opened the road with knives and axes, walked for more than ten days, and finally reached the edge of the misty forest.

Looking up, there is a white expanse in front of me, like fog but not fog, like smoke but not smoke, and the visibility is not more than two meters, but it is a bit like the severe smog in Beijing and Tianjin in the previous life.

Wu Poison commanded Beibei and other miners to cut the rope into small pieces for backup, and Xiao Shuang observed at the edge of the forest without incident, and before he could go deep into it, he gradually felt a little dizzy, and secretly said that it was not good in his heart, so he hurriedly retreated.

"How's that, dizzy! Come, take this on. Wu Poison said, and handed him a lump.

Xiaoshuang took it and saw that it was a piece of ginger, which was beneficial and harmless anyway, and immediately put it in his mouth.

A spicy smell rushed straight to his head, and he suddenly felt light, and he was completely dizzy.

"Without further ado, it's very dangerous inside, and this time the two of us will go in first to find a place, and then take them in to cut down trees.

I'll take the lead later, and you follow me, so you have to be up and down, and don't be careless. Where you walk, be sure to tie a rope to the tree and mark it so that you don't get lost.

Come, spray the realgar wine again, take the sword, axe and crossbow arrows, put the rope on your back, and follow me. ”

Wu Poison held a knife in front of him to open the way, cutting off some vines and branches that blocked the way, and Xiaoshuang carried a back basket to tie a rope behind him.

The advance was unusually slow, but it soon fell into a thick fog, like two headless flies, unable to distinguish between east and west, north and south.

"You're alright!" Wu Poison asked with concern.

"I'm fine, it's just that it's white all around, and I can't recognize the direction."

"That's what I want to say, a small number of people who enter this forest are unfortunately bitten to death by poisonous insects and beasts, and most of them are lost in the forest and are scared to death. It seems that your mental literacy is very good. ”

Wu Poison laughed twice with bad intentions.

"Why don't there even sound birds chirp in this forest, it's really terrifyingly quiet." Xiaoshuang said.

"This fog even obscures the sight, where does the bird come from, there are only poisonous insects and poisonous snakes and other poisonous things. If you hadn't come to find the membrane oil tree this time, I wouldn't have made such a big move to scare these little things away, and I might have returned with a full load. ”

Grunt, grunt, bluff .......

"Not good, there's the sound of a large beast, just ahead, get your crossbow ready."

Wu Poison said as he let go of half of his body so that Xiaoshuang's crossbow had a field of vision.

One step, two steps, three steps, the two of them got closer and closer to the roar, and the animal did not flee when it heard the sound, and it was very ready to attack.

Listening to the voice, it should be a tiger and a leopard or other beast, the hearts of the two of them are raised to their throats, the two of them look at each other, their hearts are calm, ready to let go of Yibo, and strive for a glimmer of life.

The two knew in their hearts that if they ran away now, chased after them, and lost their way, there would be only one way out.

To deal with this big cat, it is more effective to use a powerful axe, just like the Tang Dahu that Xiaoshuang learned when he was in school, it seems to be the axe used.

Through the fog, the front was already a little real, and the sound came from under a large canopy of thorn vines in front, and the hearts of the two of them trembled again.

Xiao Shuang forced the crossbow into the black poison, pulled the axe from his waist, raised it above his head, and began to approach the canopy vine.

He is a young man, and it is absolutely impossible for an old man to face danger and rush ahead of him, which is the basic principle of Xiaoshuang's life.

In Wu Poison's opinion, this is what a young man should look like, and unconsciously, he likes this brother more.

"Bluff ......."

The sound was getting closer and louder, and the tiger seemed to be staring at them under the canopy vine, just waiting for an opportunity to attack, to strike a fatal blow.

One, two, three, Xiaoshuang carefully moved his steps, maintaining good balance and coordination at all times to cope with the impact of the tiger's pounce.

Finally, Xiaoshuang saw a ring-shaped tail exposed outside the thorn vine, still writhing non-stop.

Xiaoshuang did not hesitate, followed the tail upward, and there was an axe to the sound, and after chopping, he quickly drew the axe and bounced away, ready to deal with the tiger's counterattack.

The two stepped back and waited for a while, but there was no response, so they nervously walked over carefully.

Wu Poison kicked the tiger tail on the ground hard, and it didn't feel right, so he reached out and picked it up. Xiao Shuang was still staring at the canopy vine with a nervous expression.

"It's such a big tiger snake, but it's a pity that you cut it in two."

"So what's going on with this voice?" Xiaoshuang asked when he heard the thorn vine still speaking.

"It may be that the tiger cat in the forest was bitten by this snake, and the sound it makes, if you don't believe it, you can open it and look at it."

Wu Poison said, threw the half of the snake in his hand, came over and patted Xiaoshuang's shoulder, signaling him not to be too nervous.

Xiaoshuang put down his axe, picked up the knife, and cut through the canopy thorn vine. Sure enough, I saw a white kitten whose feet were bitten by a snake and made a "bluffing" sound.

Xiao Shuangwei Wuxin borrowed gloves, grabbed the cat out, removed the snake head, tied the snake medicine, and threw it into the back basket.

"The tiger snake is very venomous, and the chances of this cat surviving are slim. Tiger cats should be gray, I have never seen a white one, it may be some kind of alien species, I will go back to the classics to check it. Wu Poison said after seeing him busy.

"Whatever! All I know is that Qingqing will be very happy to see it. ”

"So your kid had the idea! I think back then, I also sent birds to my sister! It seems to be eighteen years old, and being young is good! Wu Poison let out a sigh of emotion,

The two divided their labor as they were, and in the bluffing along the way, they successfully found the membrane oil tree.

The oil tree is tree-like, but like a sugar cane, it grows in sections.

This reminded Xiaoshuang of the green firewood planted in each village for fire, and it seemed to look like this, but the leaves were different.

The green firewood is different from other materials to be burned withered, it is necessary to take the burn just cut down, and it is not easy to ignite, it is necessary to burn on the burning wood to ignite, but the fire is extremely resistant to burning, one can burn the fire of the whole family, and it is welcomed by the people of the village, and the planting area is not small.

Xiaoshuang estimated that it contained some high-ignition combustibles, because there was nothing to use, so he didn't bother with that idleness.

Now when I saw the membrane oil tree, I remembered it again, and asked Wu Poison: "Isn't this similar to the green firewood planted in the village?" ”

"Then you are wrong, there are three species of trees, green firewood, which is used to make fires. The black membrane oil tree is used to coat the furniture and prevent insects. The white bark bullet tree seems to be of little use now. The origin of two of these trees is here. ”

"Then I'll cut down trees here, and you go and beckon them to come in and transport them out."

"Then be careful."

Wu Poison cared, sprinkled a small circle with the deworming medicine, and then turned around and went back to call people along the rope mark when he came.

The operation went very smoothly, each carrying a large bundle before returning to the mine along the same road, and the next morning, he took a car to return to Liuzhai.

The strange thing is that the strange cat did not die, and after Xiaoshuang poured the animal's blood several times and supplemented the nutrients, his vitality became stronger and stronger.

The carriage drew closer and closer to the blacksmith's workshop of Willow Sledgehammer, but there were heart-rending cries in front of it, and it sounded more and more real. ”

"What's going on in the stockade, why is there such a big commotion?" Xiaoshuang asked.

Wu Poison spread his hands and said that he didn't know, after all, the two went out together, and it was normal to not know.

"Drive, drive."

Xiaoshuang anxiously whipped the horse's ass twice.
