Rodent cordata grows only in swamps, and only in dense forests.

The Boundless Forest, as the name suggests, is endless.

There was such a large forest on the outskirts of Beijing, which Xu Shu had never paid attention to before.

According to Ying Qi, few people have set foot here, and even the people from the north who attacked the gate of the capital deliberately avoided this forest.

From a distance, you can see a white expanse.

Xu Shu would not be naïve enough to think that it was fog, because she had even smelled some pungent smell of hydrogen sulfide, a smell of rotten eggs.

There are a lot of toxic substances in the miasma, and a mask will definitely not be able to stop it, so Xu Shu wrapped himself very tightly, and put some herbs in the mask.

My grandfather's house was full of ancient medical books, which contained prescriptions to prevent miasma, and she had studied why this prescription could prevent miasma, but she did not study it.

Good thing it comes in handy now.

Shadow Seven was going to send someone to follow her, but she refused.

There were a bunch of people around her, and she had to explain everything she did to them, which was very troublesome.

And maybe people think she's crazy, because she always does something unthinkable.

For example, she couldn't explain why she was wearing a pair of shoes with oversized planks underneath.

Do you want to start a class on the spot and tell them what it means to increase the contact area and reduce the pressure?

So it's better to do it yourself.

She holds a simple compass she has made herself, making sure not to get lost.

It's really full of swamps, and she's a little scared that she won't find Qi Muran right now.

I'm afraid of what swamp he will sink into.

Before she came, she asked Ying Qi what kind of place the rodents grow.

"Houttuynia grows in the dark, so we have to dive to the bottom of the swamp to find it."

Darkness is gone...

She glanced at the compass.

The trees to the south here are noticeably better-growing, with dense foliage that shades the trees as if at night, and inferred from the rings on the stumps, suggesting that the trees to the south will be more leafy.

The branches are luxuriant, and naturally it is dark.

Xu Shu decided to go all the way south, with a higher probability.

Qi Muran, such a smart person, should also think so.

Just bet that their ideas are not on the same page.

There are dangers everywhere in the dense forest, and Xu Shu has to use a bamboo pole to test whether he will sink before taking a step, so that he can avoid falling into the swamp with a high probability.

Luckily, I avoided a lot of dangerous swamps along the way.

She shouted Qi Muran's name loudly as she walked, but her voice was like being eaten, and there was no response.

The sky gradually darkened, and it stands to reason that she should go back, but she hasn't found Qi Muran yet, so she is unwilling to go back like this.

The trees here are extremely dense, and there is only a trace of light passing through, and Qi Muran is likely to be near here.

The miasma was getting thicker and thicker, and even she felt a little stuffy.

It is necessary to find Qi Muran as soon as possible.

The more invisible, the more cautious Xu Shu became.

She had to use a bamboo pole to explore her way with every step she took, and she had to poke the bamboo pole to the ground before she could move forward.

All the way is to poke with a bamboo pole.

Suddenly, she seemed to poke at something bouncy.

At first she thought it was the corpse of a small animal, and ducked back two steps until she kicked a heavy body.

The kind with hands and feet.

Xu Shu's first reaction was Qi Muran.

But it was too dark, and she couldn't be sure if it was Qi Muran or someone else.

She'd encountered a few corpses before, and it was still dawn and she could still see faces, but now...

Xu Shu took a breath, stretched out his hand, and groped around this body.

Qi Muran has his token on his body.

She could now be sure that it was a man's body, and...

Alive.
