He Ming's outfit is quite different from the people in the village, so after going around the village, He Ming found the villager who gave him food, at least there was a relationship, and it was better to ask him than to ask someone casually.

"Uncle, may I ask, where is Miss Li now? I want to go and thank her personally. ”

"Ah, are you feeling better now? It's time to go, you see, from here to the other side of the mountain, there is a path, and Miss Li's house walks up the path and you see it. The villager pointed to the hill on the side and went on working.

From here, there is no house in sight, why does Li Yueqin live in such a place? He Ming became curious, thanked the villagers, and He Ming followed the path pointed out by the villagers and walked all the way.

At the foot of this mountain, where there is almost no road, after turning a narrow road, I actually saw a winding path. Going around the road, on a flat land halfway up the mountainside, a small wooden house appeared in front of He Ming's eyes, and the view of the small village to here was completely blocked.

Like the houses in the mountain villages, there are several plots of land next to the wooden houses, but the crops are supposed to be medicinal herbs, not agricultural products. There is no road up from the house, and the cottage is surrounded by greenery. From the outside, the house is neat and clean, and there is no stucco decoration, and the wood used to build the wooden house is so dry and refreshing, as if it had just been built.

The people who live here are not immortals but also masters, He Ming said in his heart. Then he walked briskly over and knocked carefully on the door of the hut.

"Come, is anyone sick?" Li Yueqin's voice came out, and her tactful voice was mixed with heroism, but there was no such indifference at all.

Although He Ming is not the kind of person who is fragile and sensitive, the difference in Li Yueqin's voice is so obvious that he still feels very puzzled.

After opening the door and seeing that it was He Ming, Li Yueqin's voice really had that kind of indifference in it: "Huh? Have you recovered? Is there anything going on here? ”

He Ming suddenly felt a sense of sadness. He made a very exaggerated salute and said to Li Yueqin: "Miss Li, thank you very much for saving your life!" It's just that he can't reciprocate, He Mingte came to thank the girl. ”

Li Yueqin said: "How can I have the ability to save you, it's not that you are brave and rushed through the valley with Lao Li, no one can save you, don't thank me." If your injuries have healed, leave early, it's getting more and more peaceful. ”

He Ming was taken aback, Li Yueqin was always so indifferent to herself, and this time she was directly driving herself away? He hurriedly said: "Miss Li, if He Ming has offended something, please make it clear." When I first came here, I really didn't have anywhere to go. ”

Li Yueqin said: "Take the road on the right side of the village, you can go directly to Shabak City, there are not many poisonous snakes on the way, Lao Li took that road." Viper Valley may be on the verge of disaster, so please leave quickly. ”

He Ming couldn't help but stubbornly get up: "I, He Ming, am also a person who has been on the battlefield, this life-saving benefactor is in trouble, don't tell me what the catastrophe is, let me escape like this, who does Miss Li think of me?" ”

Li Yueqin raised her big eyes and looked at He Ming: "It is the mission of my Li family to rescue the people injured by poisonous snakes, it is not a great favor, you really don't need to care." These poisonous snakes, who have been at peace with us for thousands of years, have recently changed their temperament, and I suspect that this thousand-year-old village will soon be destroyed. ”

He Mingqi said: "No wonder Lao Li said that the poisonous snake attacked him unexpectedly, so there is no other way?" If the poisonous snake really wants to attack the village, the villagers should also move together if they can't resist it. Even if I don't leave, I'm also a martial arts practitioner, why can't I contribute to the protection of this place? ”

Li Yueqin said lightly: "Speaking of hands-on, you people who came over from Biqi are really reliable." My ancestors guarded Viper Mountain Village, and they couldn't go anywhere else, but you said that you wanted to help us solve the crisis, and now there is a difficulty. ”

He Ming hurriedly asked, "What difficulty?" ”

Li Yueqin said: "After years of contact with poisonous snakes, people here only need to apply a drug to make poisonous snakes reluctant to approach. Combined with my Dao technique, releasing this medicine in the form of mist can even expel poisonous snakes in an area.

"Now the medicine is running out, and the herbs used to make them can only grow in the heart of the valley where poisonous snakes are densely populated, and we used to collect them once a year, but because of the great change in the temperament of poisonous snakes, we haven't been able to collect them for several years."

It turned out that the fog to save herself was cast by Li Yueqin. He Ming was even more determined and said: "In this case, Miss Li told me the characteristics of that herb, and He Ming desperately went to take a trip!" ”

Li Yueqin said: "This herb can repel snakes, do you know why we can't collect medicine?" ”

She continued: "A few years ago, there were rumors among the villagers that they had encountered a strange snake with a snow-white body and a seven-point body, which was extremely poisonous and was not afraid of our snake repellent medicine at all, and was called the seven-point poisonous snake. So even I can't go to collect medicine, and the villagers here are all simple ordinary people, and they can't deal with the white snake at all. ”

He Ming heard this, and the snake was not afraid at the moment, so he volunteered to say to Li Yueqin: "If it wasn't for Miss Li to come to the rescue, there would have been no He Ming for a long time, these seven poisonous snakes are also snakes, let's go to the hinterland of the valley together!" ”

Seeing that He Ming said so simply, Li Yueqin nodded slightly, and the indifference in her tone disappeared: "It's rare that you are so attentive, but it's getting late, and I'm resting today, I'll make some preparations, let's set off tomorrow." ”

That night, He Ming continued to live in the wooden house in the village, there were some empty houses in this small village that no one lived in, and the people were simple and hospitable, although the money He Ming brought from Beach could not be used at all, but they were still very enthusiastic to entertain He Ming.

Therefore, He Ming secretly swore that for the sake of this peachy village, he would also fight for his life.

Early the next morning, He Ming couldn't wait to go out. Before the sun rose, Li Yueqin also came down. She saw He Ming's fighting spirit, smiled slightly, and then cast a spell to attach the snake repellent medicine to He Ming's body.

Without further ado, after making preparations, Li Yueqin set off with the hinterland of He Mingchao's valley.

On the way, Li Yueqin dealt with He Ming about some things, and the medicine can drive away the red snake and the tiger snake. And the seven-point white snake is extremely poisonous and not afraid of drugs, but the number is very small, with He Ming's skills, he should be able to deal with it, and Li Yueqin also has the ability to detoxify. At the same time, the sharp blade "Demon Suppression" in her hand also has a lot of combat power.

Although the situation was well prepared, He Ming was also relieved, but when they entered the valley, they were still vigilant.

It is very similar to what Lao Li described at the time: although there were many poisonous snakes on the way into the valley, they did not get close to the two of them due to the influence of the drug. If Lao Li said that as long as those herbs were collected, the poisonous snakes would attack them desperately, so they still had to be more prepared.

After walking through a canyon, they climbed up a cliff along the mountain path, where there grew a patch of strange-looking plants: thick roots were exposed, slender branches seemed to wriggle like snakes, and the top was like a fern but its slender leaves were exaggeratedly spread, and there was no feeling of withering in the fierce sun, and a smell that was not fragrant but extremely strong came to the nose.

These are the plants that make snake repellent medicines, and only their leaves are effective. After climbing the cliff, they immediately began to collect, He Ming and Li Yueqin were very agile, and after a while, the two of them stuffed most of their burdens. Seeing that there are so many, Li Yueqin said: "Enough, these can be used for a long time." ”

As he spoke, those poisonous snakes that had been wandering and had no purpose suddenly rushed towards the two of them collectively as if they had received an order! Li Yueqin grabbed a handful of powder from a medicine bag she was carrying, and then performed a collective stealth technique, a burst of smoke covered the two of them, and those red snakes and tiger snakes circled around the fog, and they didn't dare to rush in again.

As the fog cleared, the vipers departed. It seemed that these snakes were really afraid of Li Yueqin's medicine, and He Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As they quickly walked out of the cliff where they were collecting the herbs, they found that no snakes were trying to attack them anymore. Li Yueqin couldn't help but say: "There are not many medicines used for detoxification in the valley, since there are enough people today, let's go and pick some detoxification herbs, it is really a long time since we have been there." You may be able to figure out why these snakes have changed their temperament so much. ”

He Ming said without hesitation: "It is incumbent!" ”

So Li Yueqin continued to lead the way, and they walked cautiously all the way under the protection of snake repellent drugs. Li Yueqin said: "In the dry season in the Snake Valley, we would go to the mountain spring there to fetch water, and the area near the spring water was the source of the antidote. Fortunately, there was no particularly serious dry season in the past few years, but there were times of water shortage every year, so we had to go to the spring again. ”

The two of them walked cautiously, but it didn't take long for a new situation to happen: some apparently reluctant Red Serpents and Tiger Serpents were still approaching them! The snakes came in a very writhing posture, completely different from the normal way of rushing straight at them.

Is something forcing them to attack? He Ming had an ominous feeling in his heart. If you look closely, sure enough, there is a white snake in the middle of the snake group! Those looked smaller than the red snakes, with a few black spots on them. Spit out the core and hissed, and every time it swam, the other snakes approached this way according to its command, even under the influence of the snake-driving mist.

And it is said that these white snakes are still not afraid of snake repellent drugs. He Ming glanced at Li Yueqin and decided to rush up and kill the seven-point poisonous snake. And Li Yueqin made a gesture to stop him.
