Chapter 440: Searching for the Earth Dragon Vine
Li Canghai grinned and smiled disappreliantly: "Brother Xu really exalts me so much, I dare not take the title of 'gentleman' seriously, in fact, Brother Li knows me deeply, and I also have a lot of selfishness, but Brother Xu doesn't know it." The reason why I do this is not to gain fame, but because I respect Brother Xu as a person. To tell you the truth, just before I discussed with Zhang Da, when I helped these pirates detoxify, I would cripple them and leave them to fend for themselves. Even now, I still stick to this idea. ”
Xu Liang was a little surprised and looked at him in surprise.
Li Canghai glanced at Xu Liang, who was a little dumbfounded, and said lightly: "Brother Xu insists that human nature is inherently good, and everyone has a good heart, while I insist that good and evil will be rewarded." If you do something wrong, you will be punished, and if you blindly indulge, you will only make evil more rampant, and in the long run, the law will lose its meaning. ”
Xu Liang didn't speak after listening, but after a while, he sighed and said, "What Brother Li said is not unreasonable, just like Brother Li said, if you heal them and let them be punished." ”
At this time, Shangguan Mao had already brought over the boiled turtle bile.
This time, the turtle bile is boiled with several other herbs, not only does it not have the bitter smell, but it has a refreshing aroma, which makes people smell very comfortable, presumably because the bitterness of the bile is neutralized by other medicinal materials.
"Brother Xu, you're welcome." Li Canghai bowed his hand to him slightly, then poured out half a bowl of soup and said.
"Wait!" Xu Liang suddenly stopped him and said, "Brother Li, you have a special physique, you will reject toxins, you don't feel much when you drink it, so I'll come." ”
As he spoke, Xu Liang snatched the pottery bowl from his hand, did not allow Li Canghai and Shangguan Mao to say anything, and raised his head to drink the soup in the bowl.
Seeing this, Li Canghai and Shangguan Mao's expressions immediately became nervous, and they were busy staring at Xu Liang, for fear that something would happen to him.
After Xu Liang drank the soup, not only did he not appear anything unusual, but his face became much more ruddy, and he seemed to be much more energetic than before.
Li Canghai and Shangguan Mao glanced at each other, and they were puzzled in their hearts, this seems to be a tonic, how can it be a poison?
At this moment, Xu Liang suddenly spit out a pool of blood, which startled the two.
"Brother Xu, are you okay?" Li Canghai hurriedly asked.
Xu Liang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Sure enough, when these things are mixed together, they will produce a toxin that fascinates the mind. ”
"How do you detoxify it?" Li Canghai frowned and asked.
Xu Liang thought for a while and said, "If you can get some fish gulls and earth dragon teng, maybe you can solve it." ”
"This is an island, and it's not hard to find fish and gulls, but what is this dragon vine?" Li Canghai wondered.
Xu Liang said: "Earth dragon vine is a cane plant, which grows under the ground and has the effect of calming the mind and concentrating, which has a great effect on poison. I've been on this island for a long time, and I've only seen it in one canyon. ”
Li Canghai nodded and said, "Since there is an antidote here, it will be easy to do." Brother Xu is here to rest and rest, and the matter of finding the earth dragon vine and fish gull will be left to me. But I don't know what shape the earth dragon vine is? ”
"The earth dragon vine is shaped like a dragon, with vines and leaves like scales. However, the dragon vine is dull in color, similar to the ground, and it is difficult to find. Xu Liang pondered for a moment and said, "Shangguan Mao has been there before, so it's better to let Shangguan Mao go with you, so that you can take care of it." ”
Li Canghai nodded and said, "Without further ado, let's set off." ”
With that, he and Shangguan Mao left the tent.
Outside the tent, Zhang Da clasped his hands on his chest and stood guard at the door.
Li Canghai hugged his fists at him and said, "Brother Zhang, we are going to find the antidote, and Dr. Xu's safety will be handed over to you." ”
Zhang Da patted his chest and said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, don't worry, whoever dares to hurt Dr. Xu, I will break his neck!" ”
Li Canghai smiled, and then left the camp with Shangguan Mao.
The three pirates knew that Li Canghai and Shangguan Mao were going to find an antidote, so they had to send someone to follow them, because they were afraid that Li Canghai, a lame man, would not be able to help.
The two of them did not refuse, and agreed.
The three of them went to the beach first, and Shangguan Mao stones shot down more than a dozen fish gulls in an instant.
Li Canghai knew at this time that Shangguan Mao's martial arts were not weak.
After shooting the fish gulls, the three of them each carried seven or eight fish gulls and walked towards the canyon that Xu Liang said.
The canyon was on the northwest side of the camp, and they had to go around the low hill where their camp was, and by the time they reached the canyon, it was already dark.
The strange rocks in the canyon were craggy and very difficult to walk, so the three of them lit torches and carefully searched for the dragon vine in the canyon.
The three of them have been finding the night since the sun set, and they have not found the whereabouts of the earth dragon vine.
Soon, the three of them came to a fork in the road.
"Shangguan, could Doctor Xu remember the wrong place?" Li Canghai asked.
Shangguan Mao shook his head and said, "Doctor Xu shouldn't be mistaken, since he said that there is an earth dragon vine here, there will definitely be one, but we haven't found it yet." ”
"Well, there are three of us, and there are three forks in the road, so let's find one for each of us, so we can save some time." Li Canghai thought for a while and said.
Shangguan Mao nodded, and said to the pirates who followed: "You see, there are three forks here, what are you going to do?" ”
The pirate didn't think about it and said, "I'm naturally going to follow you, if you run away, what if you run away." ”
Li Canghai narrowed his eyes and said busily: "Big brother, why follow him?" Dr. Xu is still in our hands, are you still afraid that he will run away? Now let's go out to find an antidote, but we can't delay for a moment, or more brothers will die a tragic death! What's more, this place is so eerie, and the longer we stay, the worse it will be for us! ”
When the pirate heard this, he thought about it and thought that it was the same.
Xu Liang and Zhang Da are still in their hands, are they still afraid that Shangguan Mao will not go back?
What's more, as Li Canghai said, there is a strange atmosphere in the entire canyon, as if there will be monsters popping out anytime and anywhere.
"In that case, then, as you said, after finding the Earth Dragon Vine, we will meet here, and I will choose the one on the right." The pirate said, pointing to the fork in the road on the right.
Shangguan Mao said: "Then I chose the middle one, remember, the color of the earth dragon vine is similar to the ground, it is extremely difficult to find, you must take a closer look." ”
Li Canghai nodded and said, "Then I'll choose the road on the left, without further ado, let's set off now." ”
The three of them put all the fish gulls they hunted at the fork, and then set off lightly.
Without the pirate by his side, Li Canghai didn't have to pretend to be lame anymore, so he straightened up and walked inside with a torch in his hand.
After walking for about five or six miles, I found nothing but stones, no earth dragon vines, not even plants. (To be continued.) )
