Chapter 142: The Stream
The white fog gradually thinned, and there was gradually no trace of birds and beasts or strange beasts in the woods, with the experience of the previous few days, Xie Qingning and the others did not encounter any more dangers, until the sound of flowing water faintly came from the front, and everyone's spirits were shocked.
Coming for days, you have to be careful to guard against the miasma or swamp in the forest, or those strange beasts, everyone's spirit is very tense, even when they are resting, there are strings in their minds, where can they really rest.
I finally heard the sound of water, and thought that I could take a shower and clean up the filth and blood stains on my body, and the comfort in everyone's hearts was indescribable.
After about 500 meters of progress, a small stream like a jade belt appeared in front of me, the water of the stream was extremely clear, and the fish at the bottom of the water were very free, fortunately, there were no more evolutionary aliens, otherwise everyone's mood was really indescribable.
"Wait." Xie Qingning saw that everyone's faces showed ecstasy, and hurriedly called.
Everyone looked at it in surprise, only to see that she first probed the water in the stream with a silver needle, confirmed that it was non-toxic and picked up some and sniffed it carefully, and then nodded and said, "It's not poisonous." ”
As soon as the words fell, almost all of them jumped into the water at the same time, undressing and washing their faces, so unhappy.
Hearing the sound of the water and the splashing of water around her, Xie Qingning's heart was also full of joy, she walked upstream along the stream alone, planning to find a quiet place to take a good bath, lest the smell on her body was about to make her feel a little unpleasant.
The more he walked upstream, the more Xie Qingning felt that the air was indescribably fresh, and the nearby green mountains and green trees also revealed an indescribable freshness.
At the end of Cangyu Mountain, which seems to be dangerous and gloomy, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the air is quiet, which is probably unimaginable for many people who have not been in. She thought to herself.
Xie Qingning took a beautiful bath in the stream and changed into clean clothes.
When she casually set fire to the dirty clothes she had changed, she suddenly heard a very strange sound.
The sound was not like the sound of the wind, not like the sound of water, not like any strange cry, but a bit like the whirring sound that stirred up the air currents.
Xie Qingning turned his head to look at the source of the sound in surprise, and unexpectedly found that at the end of his eyes, there was a canyon like a moat, and the mountains on both sides of it towered into the clouds, and the top of the mountain could not be seen at all. And the canyon seems to have been formed by some sharp weapon splitting a mountain in the middle, which is really unbelievable.
The sound I heard came from the depths of the canyon that could only be walked by one person, and it was so dark that it was impossible to see what terrible things were hidden, but judging from the sound alone, it seemed like a huge windmill was constantly spinning, which formed a faint sound of breaking the air.
Xie Qingning's eyebrows moved slightly, and she vaguely felt that it might be what she had guessed before? Could it be that the source of the abnormal changes in Cangyu Mountain is in the canyon?
Just as she lifted the hem of her skirt and was about to go over to take a look, she heard Lan Yongzhi's voice behind her, "Qingning, they have already grilled the meat, just waiting for you to go over and start the meal." ”
Xie Qingning was stunned for a moment, and looked back at Lan Yongzhi, who was slowly walking towards this side, he had also taken a shower and changed into a clean sky-blue robe, his long black hair was probably dried by him with a spell, and it was still meticulously tied on the top of his head, fixed with a white ribbon, and his eyebrows were clear, which was very eye-catching.
It seems that no matter what time and place, Lan Yongzhi always tidies himself up, even when he fought side by side with her a few days ago, his body was scarred, but his expression was still unflustered and gentle, which really did not match the image of a gentleman that a child of the family should have.
Xie Qingning couldn't help but smile, although she felt a little regretful in her heart, she still chose to put everyone's safety first, the secrets in Cangyu Mountain, or wait for her to explore it when she is strong in the future, she thought.
"I'm very hungry, let's go back." Xie Qingning shook off the long hair that was still dripping behind him, and walked quickly towards the loop.
She just changed into a white long skirt and put on a lotus-colored short coat at random, which also looked refreshed, with bright facial features, and her skin was even more than white pearls, and her beautiful phoenix eyes were shining, which was really hard to ignore the beauty and agility that seduced people's hearts.
Lan Yongzhi lowered her head in a hurry, her eyes flickered, but she still smelled the faint fragrance that kept wafting from her body, and the corners of her lips hooked involuntarily. He remembered that he had been with her all the way, life and death, and his heart was filled with a burst of joy, and it would be great if he could accompany her to go on like this. He thought secretly.
The two didn't say anything, just walked side by side, by the way, they sucked in the fresh air and the smell of grass and earth mixed in it, the smell of nature smelled better than any other aroma, and it was more suitable for human nourishment, they didn't want to miss it, and they didn't want to disturb such a peaceful and beautiful time.
When they returned to the camp where everyone gathered, Xie Tan and the others had already baked a lot of wild things, Xie Qingning took the half of the hare handed by Xie Huazhao, sat by the fire and thought about the mysterious canyon of Fang Cai while eating, and before he knew it, he finished eating, and then heard Xie Tan say in a deep voice, "Miss, come and see Ling Feng's injury." ”
Xie Tan used to call her only "Miss" instead of "Seventh Miss", and everyone was already surprised, just because in his heart, he was only loyal to Xie Qingning alone, not the entire Xie Mansion.
Hearing this, Xie Qingning threw away the branch in his hand and walked quickly to Xie Lingfeng's side.
His left calf was bitten by a red snake, although he was temporarily treated by Xie Qingning, so as not to let the toxin continue to spread, but after all, he did not find a way to detoxify, and it would deteriorate at any time, which was what she was most worried about.
When she lifted Xie Lingfeng's trouser legs, untied the white bandage wrapped around the outside, and found that purple blood was faintly leaking from the wound, she couldn't help but be shocked.
When Xie Qingning took Xie Lingfeng's pulse, everyone gathered around, and when they saw her expression becoming more and more solemn, they couldn't help but worry.
"Since when did it start to change color?" Xie Qingning withdrew his finger and asked cautiously.
"From ...... Started the night before yesterday. Xie Lingfeng said.
"Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"I ...... I don't want to delay everyone's trip, after all, it's too dangerous in the woods. ”
Xie Qingning sighed, she actually always felt that the secrets in Cangyu Mountain had not yet been solved, and it was a pity to leave like this, and secondly, some problems had not been solved, and it was not satisfactory after all.
Of course, she has no masochistic tendencies, she just hopes to find the nest of the little red snake and the poisonous mosquito, and see if there are any herbs to remove the corresponding poison, these two things are extremely valuable to a healer, after all, not everyone can adjust such a powerful poison and antidote.
