Chapter 114: Bamboo canes and shoes are lighter than horses
Qian Xiaoqian stood blankly in the middle of a forest, feeling that this was not similar to his own positioning. He was supposed to be in the city.
In ancient times, the mountains and forests were not like modern ones, and there were not even a few birds. At this time, even if it is a tiger, it is not uncommon. It's normal to run into a few by chance.
There is a belt for self-defense, but it will inevitably leave traces when you use it, so it's best not to use it. I opened the contact device and took a look at the current location and the surrounding terrain, which should be a mountain forest on the outskirts of Huiji.
"Huh? What are the green dots? ”
The map location function is new after the system update, and many signs and applications are still in the exploration stage, so it's normal for things to be unaware. What's more, most of the products bought from someone do not have a description system.
According to the application of Baidu Maps, generally only the user's personal location will appear. But now the terrain and road displayed on the liaison and the radioactive radar-like coverage of Qian Xiaoqian's location look more like a small map in the game. Constantly moving green dots in the radar circle...... Could it be a creature? It won't be dangerous, right?
Swallowed the spit, looked left and right, found a crooked neck tree that was neither high nor low and had more places to step on, and quietly meowed to see what was approaching.
Climb to a high place with a great view. The boundaries that had been obscured by the overgrown weeds were gradually becoming clearer.
When I looked closely, it turned out to be a young man holding a bamboo cane, pedaling straw sandals, and wearing coarse linen clothes. He carried a wide-mouthed, thin-necked basket behind his back. Although he couldn't see his face clearly from a high place, he could feel that this person was definitely not a hard-working person who walked in the mountains and forests all year round. His rolled up sleeves leaked out of half of his forearm, and it was obvious that it was difficult for a person who had been exposed to the wind and sun for a long time to have the same fair skin as this person.
It's also good to have someone, at least to be able to ask something out. If you're lucky, you'll be able to go out with a companion.
Qian Xiaoqian let go of a hand and said hello downward: "Brother Tai!" I want to ask for directions under it! ”
The young man's back stiffened, and he looked up mechanically to see where the voice came from. Seeing Qian Xiaoqian, who was desperately waving to him on the branch, he was stunned for a moment, and then returned with a kind smile.
"Wait a minute, I'll come down now!" Qian Xiaoqian saw that the other party stopped and waited for him, and immediately used his hands and feet to go down. First, he stepped on the raised tree ring on one side, grabbed the trunk with both hands, and rubbed it down little by little. But he accidentally stepped on the air at a distance of just over one meter from the ground.
"Yikes!" With a muffled grunt, he closed his eyes. If you're not careful, you're going to be in free fall. Fortunately, it's just over a meter, so it shouldn't be too serious. But he fell into a grassy embrace.
The man's embrace was very strong, and the inertia held him firmly.
"It's okay." A gentle voice sounded in his ears, and Qian Xiaoqian was about to say thank you, but for some reason a feeling of powerlessness rose in his heart, and dizziness instantly covered his nerves, and he fainted without warning.
"Brother?" The young man felt the pulse of his body beating in his arms, "It's okay, it's just ...... fainted," and sighed. Remove a sealed package from your waist. Untie it carefully, and inside is a small pin bag. The long needles are neatly arranged in a specific order. The young man carefully flattened the person, looking at Qian Xiaoqian's strange clothes with some sadness. He couldn't find a way to untie his clothes. After researching it over and over again, I couldn't figure out where to start for half a day. I had no choice but to pack up my line, carry the basket to the front, pull Qian Xiaoqian's arms, put the person on my back, and go down the mountain.
Obviously, a big man with more than 100 pounds on his back, a basket of medicinal herbs, and a young man who doesn't seem to have much meat can still ensure that he walks steadily in the mountains and forests. If Qian Xiaoqian woke up, he would be amazed. Even if this person is not a practitioner, he must be endowed with divine power.
……
The bitter taste fills the mouth and lingers for a long time. Qian Xiaoqian only felt tired, but he didn't feel any pain, he just didn't want to move at all. Rolling his eyes and scanning back and forth, this should be a temporary forest hut, because the layout is very simple, and there is not even any breath of life.
Think back to before you fainted...... By the way, I should have been helped here by the young man under the tree at that time. He had no idea that the man had carried him on his back for nearly a kilometer before he could find the hut where he could rest.
Thinking of thanks, he pulled up the thin quilt covering his body and sat up, a cool breeze made intimate contact with his skin, and he couldn't help but shiver.
"My ...... The clothes ...... "stared blankly at his indecent outfit, and there were only bottoms left on his body...... "So, what did he do to me......"
"Awake?" The footsteps were gradual, and the young man seemed to have calculated that it was time for him to wake up. He came in at the right time, holding a bowl of Chinese medicine with a familiar taste in one hand and a thin bamboo tube similar to a straw in the other. walked up to Qian Xiaoqian, put the bamboo pipe on the rack at the bow of the boat, and handed the bowl to Qian Xiaoqian. glanced at Qian Xiaoqian's figure from the bottom up, the corners of his mouth curled, blinked his eyes, and said, "I didn't do anything, don't worry." Your clothes and luggage are in a bamboo basket under the bed. Now that you're up, drink the medicine yourself! ”
The young man is not a very outstanding image, and with his outfit, he can even be honest. But the tone of his speech is very inconsistent with his appearance, occasionally with a little playfulness, but most of the time he is still calm and calm. People can't afford to resist in the slightest.
Qian Xiaoqian glanced at the black Chinese medicine in his hand faintly, and he could still see the medicine residue at the bottom of the bowl when he shook slightly. Thinking back to the young man's words, remembering the familiarity of the taste, he glanced at the straw on the shelf again, and sighed, he probably knew how he drank his first bowl.
"Goo-dong!" After drinking it in one go, he put the bowl aside and thanked him sincerely: "Thank you brother Tai for your help." ”
"You're welcome." The young man's smile is soft, and the slender eyebrows and eyes complete a good-looking arc, like spring rain, soaking people's hearts.
"The contemptible person's surname is Qian, and his name is Xiaoqian. I still don't know what to call Brother Tai? ”
"In the descent of the mountains."
It's really him! Shantao, mountain giant source. I shouted yes in my heart. I thought that I was located in some ravine this time, and I was afraid that I didn't want to go out by myself. Obviously, it has been positioned according to the vicinity of the target task. However, he remembered that Shantao should be in his forties, and now he should be the chief bookkeeper in the county seat, how could he look so young. Although he is not a teenager, he will never be more than 30 years old.
Could it be that it is wrong again? Shouldn't it? It's all some luck, for a year, not a single one has gone well.
But now that there are natives, you can't take out the contact to see the time. I'll have to wait a while.
Shantao saw that he seemed to be thinking about something, so he didn't bother anymore, and slowly got up and walked out with the medicine bowl, not forgetting to close the door. The man had no clothes on, and if he was caught in the wind, he was afraid that the disease would not be easy to heal.
It's just that Shantao has a question that hasn't been asked yet, this person seems to be poisoned......
