Chapter 145: Capturing a Goblin Alive
The colorful morning glow gradually fills the sky, the white mist lingers in the mountains, the birds and treetops sing tactfully, and it is a bright morning.
Seven days had passed since the operation, Gu Ye checked the recovery of Ling Juechen's wound, and said with satisfaction: "The healing is good, the stitches could have been removed today." However, you said yesterday that your chest hurts, and you haven't found the cause yet, so let's observe it for a day and then remove the stitches! I'm going up the mountain today, Brother Chen, you remember to take medicine obediently! ”
"Up the mountain?" Ling Jiechen didn't think that she would obediently move around, so he said, "Let Mei accompany you." ”
"No need, you are injured now, and you can't leave anyone around you! The three guard brothers have been sent out by you, and Sister Mei will stay by your side to take care of you! I'm familiar with the mountains, don't worry! Gu Ye declined Ling Juechen's kindness. She doesn't like people following her like a little tail, awkward!
Ling Juechen saw that she had made up her mind, so he no longer insisted on it, and gently told her to be careful. Gu Ye said that he had brought anti-snake, insect and animal powder, and it would not be dangerous.
Ling Juechen was still not at ease, and poked the snoring Sky Killer on his kang head, signaling it to follow and secretly protect the little girl.
The panther rolled her eyes impatiently, stretched her lazy waist, and jumped lightly off the earthen kang. Taking advantage of Gu Ye's lack of attention, it quickly got into the back basket she often carried, nested in it and continued to sleep.
Gu Ye greeted his grandfather, said that he would not come back for dinner at noon, took the rice ball handed over by Aunt Yan, and carried the small basket up the mountain.
At the beginning, you can still see the women and children in the village digging wild vegetables. Gu Ye greeted the neighbors he knew all the way, and slowly walked to the depths of the mountain. The trail became shallow and deep, and finally covered with weeds and shrubs.
Gu Ye climbed on the rocks with ease, and walked through the half-human-high weeds. Spring is the season when all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants wake up, and from time to time there are colorful long insects that rush out of the grass and flee far away.
Gu Ye drank a bottle of speed elixir and ran towards the depths of the mountains and forests almost without touching the ground. Gradually, she approached the inner perimeter of Cangmang Mountain. The scenery in the mountains is different from that of the outside, with flowers of all colors blooming happily in the green grass, huge trees hugging several people everywhere, and leaves piled up in the forest like a thick carpet, and walking on them is soft. The shrubs and grasses are also becoming denser and deeper......
Even the animals were multiplied, and herds of elk walked in the woods; From time to time pheasants flew overhead, skimming under her feet; The hare, caught you off guard, will suddenly burst out, look back at you, and jump away as fast as you can...... As for the ferocious beasts, there is Gu Ye's special beast repellent powder, and if you smell the smell early and avoid it, you will naturally not be bumped into by her.
Gu Ye sat down on a stone by a mountain stream, stroked the cool stream with her hand, and wiped her sweaty little face while walking in the mountains. The green mountains, green waters, green trees, red flowers, the scenery is beautiful and charming, which makes people intoxicated. Looking at the spring scenery in his eyes, Gu Ye couldn't help but hum a song - the sun winked at me, and the birds sang to me......
Not far from her, on a high boulder, an evil man in a red embroidered robe with gold trim looked at the little girl in a coarse cloth not far away: a pretty little face, big smart eyes, light steps, and flexible movements.
In the deep mountains where wild beasts are rampant, how can a little girl with no internal strength appear here leisurely, how can it not make people feel strange?
What's even more strange is that where the little girl passed, those originally fierce and unruly beasts all avoided in a hurry. There was a white-fronted tiger that was chasing an antelope, but because of the arrival of the little girl, it not only gave up the prey it had already had, but also wished that it had two more legs, and escaped in embarrassment.
At that moment, it was as if it had become the prey, and the little girl had turned into a ferocious hunter. Obviously, the little girl didn't do anything, her expression was smiling, and he didn't perceive any ferocity and threat from the little girl, but why were those beasts so afraid of her?
What is this little girl singing about? It's really ugly, and it's not an exaggeration to describe it as "absurd". What, what? She's a hard-working, non-clingy leprechaun? Could it be that there are really demons and monsters in this world?
"The king asked me to come and patrol the mountains and catch a monk to make dinner...... The water in this mountain is incomparably sweet - no envy of mandarin ducks and no immortals! Gu Ye hummed a song intermittently, and with a pair of clear and agile eyes, he glanced towards the nearby cliff.
Suddenly, her eyes fixed on a small plant, and she couldn't help but dance happily: "Haha! Silver thread grass, this is the poison on Brother Chen's body, the most important medicine, I actually ran into it, lucky! ”
Gu Ye took a sip of the weight loss potion, jumped up the mountain rock in three or two, climbed on a dead tree, and carefully dug up the herbs. Regarding the poison on Ling Juechen's body, she was not very sure for the time being. However, she used her reputation as a "genius pharmacist" to vouch for a few more attempts, and she would definitely be able to formulate the antidote!
Silver thread grass is rare, she has to dig it up by the roots and plant it in the space. It won't be long before she'll be able to grow a patch of silver thread, enough for her experiments!
Gong Liyan, who quietly followed, narrowed his fox eyes, and was puzzled: this little girl couldn't feel the slightest internal fluctuation, how could she easily jump on such a high cliff. Is there a light work in the world that does not need the support of internal force?
He suddenly remembered the song that the little girl had just sung - the king called me to patrol the mountains, and I turned the world around...... The king asked me to come and patrol the mountains and catch a monk to make dinner...... Although he didn't understand why he had to catch the monk to make dinner, the lyrics were too weird, right? Combined with the unreasonable phenomenon he saw - this guy dressed up as a little village girl can't really be a monster, right?
Gong Liyan's interest in the little girl is even stronger!
Gu Ye, who had picked the silver thread grass, "floated" down from the cliff lightly, you read that right, it was indeed "floating" down, like a cloud, and like a fallen leaf, gently falling to the ground. Suddenly, there was a chill behind her, and there was a sense of crisis that she was being targeted.
"Who's there! Come out!! The little girl's sweet smile vanished, and a fierce color crept up her pretty face, like a frightened little milk cat.
Gong Liyan raised his eyebrows, this little girl really had a secret that he couldn't see. With his skills, even a first-class master in the rivers and lakes may not be able to detect it. He wondered how the little girl found out about his existence.
In fact, the moment he appeared, he casually asked the doubts in his heart.
