Chapter 22: The Glowing Lake
Thin porridge is poisonous?
Qin Yunuan reflexively looked at the gruel that had been drunk by himself, Leng Changxi tightened Qin Yunuan's pulse even more nervously, among all the people, only Acha and Qin Yunuan drank the porridge, the others were safe and sound, Lu Wuyi was treating Acha, his brows were furrowed, and finally he came to the conclusion that this porridge had a highly poisonous intestinal breaking grass, and as long as it was a small amount, it could make people die violently in a short time.
Leng Changxi only felt a violent twitch in his heart, and he wanted to recruit Lu Wuyi to come over to treat Qin Yunuan, but was stopped by Qin Yunuan.
"You just took my pulse, do you think anything is unusual?"
Leng Changxi calmed down, thought about it carefully, and said, "No, the pulse is steady, smooth and powerful." ”
"I also drank porridge, Atcha had an accident, but I was fine, there are only two situations, either, someone poisoned his porridge bowl alone, that is someone else wants to harm him, or, it is a play directed and acted by him, it is he who wants to harm others, Changxi, what do you think, which one?" Qin Yunuan smiled slightly, her crystal pupils with a wise light.
Leng Changxi was afraid that Qin Yunuan would be hungry, so he stayed by the pot early and served a bowl for Qin Yunuan, everyone didn't know that this Tuoba lady had already enjoyed the blessing of the mouth first, and always thought that Acha was the first to drink, and between warning each other, Qin Yunuan had secretly splashed the porridge bowl in his hand behind the big stone behind him.
"What's wrong?" Leng Changxi casually slung the spear behind him, as if he had just noticed something strange here.
Even Wan Yan Su was shocked, he didn't expect that the little food left now would have such a poison as the broken intestine grass.
"Someone is poisoned." Wan Yan Su straightened up, and could see that he had been much haggard recently, and his face was full of sorrow, "The preliminary test is that this gruel is poisonous, I have ordered someone to pour all the gruel, and Dr. Lu is checking the horse meat and rice, I hope they are all right." ”
At the same time, three or four soldiers were trying to lift Atcha up and move to a shady place to rest on the side, Lu Wuyi had already done acupuncture for him just now, saying that he was looking for a shelter from the wind, but this Acha was born extremely tall and majestic, and three or four ordinary soldiers couldn't lift it at all, at this time, someone happened to see Leng Changxi coming, and hurriedly called: "Tuoba Gongzi, come and hit the handle, a few of us can't lift Acha, Tuoba Gongzi is born with divine power, a spear is so heavy, it will be easy to lift." ”
It seems to be provocative, it seems to be asking for help, in short, when the people around Acha heard someone say this, they all consciously gave way and let Leng Changxi come over.
Leng Changxi wrapped the spear around his back, and his black boots felt very good on the soft and rainy ground, he walked slowly and glanced at Atcha on the ground;
"Look, Tuoba Gongzi, it's right there, you just have to put Atcha in that shady place." Following the soldier's hand, there was a very secluded hill on the back of a hill, where everyone camped.
"Okay." Leng Changxi smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and pulled Atcha's belt, and as soon as he was lucky, he easily lifted Atcha above his head, carried it on his shoulders, and walked towards the destination, the more people walked, the fewer people came, until he reached the remote halfway up the mountain, Leng Changxi slowly put Atcha down, but his mouth suddenly overflowed with cold words: "I'm just strange, if my body is not comfortable, I should find a place where there are many people to take care of at any time, but I chose such a shady place." ”
Hearing this, Atcha on Leng Changxi's back suddenly opened his eyes, his sharp eyes were like polished bronze mirrors, he turned over and jumped off Leng Changxi's body, just to grab Leng Changxi's collar, ready to give Leng Changxi a good look, but with two slight swishing sounds, Leng Changxi suddenly dragged Acha to the ground, pressed his body with his arms, and kept him in a prostrate state, at the same time, Leng Changxi looked around cautiously, and on the wet soil, there were two short arrows with special patterns inserted upright, The tip of the arrow is an eerie red color that seems to be a special sign.
If it weren't for Leng Changxi who overwhelmed Atcha just now, then these two short arrows would not have been shot on the ground, but at Atcha's heart, Acha touched the depth of the short arrow into the soil, and it could already be judged that if this was shot on a person's body, I am afraid that he would not even be able to touch the arrow, Leng Changxi, at such a critical juncture, saved his life on the premise of knowing that he was going to harm him.
Leng Changxi had no intention of caring about Atcha's inner activities, he carefully observed the surrounding situation, and suddenly heard the bushes three feet away in front of him move, he got up and wanted to chase after him, but the brown figure he saw was gone.
Leng Changxi had probably guessed that this should be the mysterious tribe guarding the Savage Valley, they were wearing clothes similar to the color of the jungle, so that they could hunt prey in the jungle and hide themselves, this is good news, it shows that Qin Yunuan's guess is right, but it is also bad news, which proves that in this huge jungle, there is a group of people who are silently monitoring this group of troops, and they are also trying to kill them.
This person only shot two short arrows and left quickly, most likely to go to ventilate and report the news, considering this, Leng Changxi decided to find Wan Yansu to discuss, and hurried away while the night was dark.
But Leng Changxi was about to leave, but Acha beside him suddenly hugged his thigh and said sincerely: "Thank you for the life-saving grace of Tuoba Gongzi, Acha can't repay it." ”
Leng Changxi glanced down at Atcha, this Beidi man can't be said to be vicious, it's just that Xingzi is too anxious, although he has a good kung fu, but he is all used to fight and play domineering, which makes him dislike, not to mention, he didn't see how the soldier who was besieged by leeches was pushed out by Atcha.
Atcha thought that Leng Changxi didn't hear it, and then shouted louder: "Acha is willing to be a cow and a horse in the future to repay the kindness of Tuoba Gongzi." ”
"No need," Leng Changxi moved his thighs that were tightly tightened by Acha, "If you let go of my legs, it will be regarded as a repayment." ”
Acha was stunned for a moment, and as soon as he let go, Leng Changxi had already walked quickly towards the bonfire, Wan Yan Su was sitting next to the bonfire scooping the freshly cooked pimple soup for Ya Su, Qin Yunuan was sitting next to him to bake the fire, and seeing Leng Changxi coming quickly, Wan Yan Su subconsciously stood up.
"How's Atsa?" Wan Yansu asked, "It's really hard work." ”
"It's just pretending," Leng Changxi said solemnly after explaining the situation over there succinctly, "Your Highness, we must leave immediately." ”
Then, after listening to Leng Changxi's explanation, Wan Yansu's brows condensed again, as if his brows had not been comfortable since he entered this Savage Valley;
"The local tribe is familiar with the terrain and weather, and the possibility of taking advantage of the dark fog at night to commit crimes is very great, so we have to guard against it."
"But even so," Wan Yansu hesitated a little, "but marching at night is also a taboo for soldiers, and we don't know how to go on the rest of the road, Mrs. Tuoba only spelled out the first map and the fourth map, and the middle route is the key." "Wan Yansu always thinks about a lot of things.
Leng Changxi looked at Qin Yunuan, and the two were already discussing with each other in their eyes.
"Actually, it's not," Qin Yunuan said silently, "I compare the difference between the two maps, it's just that in a place called Fluorescent Lake, whether to go left or right, Fluorescent Lake has an open terrain and a water source, we can temporarily hide there and make plans tomorrow." ”
As he spoke, the wind rustled through the surrounding trees, and it always felt as if someone was slowly approaching, and even the sound of squirrels fluttering among the branches of the trees was like the sound of people stepping on dead branches.
Leng Changxi stared at Wan Yan Su with a firm gaze, and after a while, Wan Yan Su decisively ordered: "Everyone, pack up the camp tent and hurry overnight." ”
The pot of rice porridge just now was all thrown away because of Acha's pranks, and everyone had not tasted this pot of pimple soup and asked to continue on the road, and it was inevitable that there would be complaints, but this time Aca did not have nào'shi, but followed the front of the team very honestly, and even led a few of his followers to appease those who were exhausted.
Qin Yunuan was very surprised by the change in Acha, she leaned next to Leng Changxi and asked quietly, "What did you do to this man?" ”
"I don't know," Leng Changxi pouted innocently, "Maybe he just got kicked in the head by a donkey." ”
Where did the donkey come from in the wilderness!
The sky is already dark, only this lonely long line is slowly hurrying, in order to pass the sky, Wan Yan Su ordered his subordinates to discard many torches, now everyone can only use thick wooden sticks to wrap a layer of rags, and then pour a layer of tiny grease extracted from horse meat and make torches, Leng Changxi walked in the front column, Wan Yan Su and everyone else, all on foot.
In the distance, a wave of blue fluorescence has gradually rippled, and when you get closer, you seem to smell the smell of water.
That's the Fluorescent Lake.
The Fluorescent Lake is not in vain, but because it is home to a unique microorganism, which blooms with a magical blue light at night, and from a distance, it looks like a royal blue gem, like a fairyland.
"Fluorescent Lake has arrived!" The scout who was at the forefront waved his flag at the team behind, and the people behind were immediately refreshed, because Wan Yansu said that they would rest when they walked to the Fluorescent Lake.
"Wait." Leng Changxi suddenly made a silent gesture, everyone held their breath, and Atcha even stopped everyone from keeping quiet together, even the reconnaissance soldier at the front was motionless.
The air seemed to be condensed, everyone was waiting for Leng Changxi's movements, and I don't know when Leng Changxi had become the leader of these one hundred and sixty people.
"Come out!" Leng Changxi suddenly took a big step forward with his long legs, and at the same time pulled out the spear on his back and stabbed it towards the other side of the hill.
