Chapter Twenty-Five: The Strange Child

She remembered that Dukong was going west, so she walked in this direction for several miles, and the sound of the stream in her ears became louder and louder, and there was a stream in this season, which was a little strange. The water followed the sound through a forest, and in front of him he broke into a small white rocky beach, on which there was still bubbling heat.

With a look of surprise in his eyes, he probed it with his hand - hot! She didn't expect that there was hot spring water here, she had only read the description in the book, and what she saw with her own eyes today was really unheard of!

The hot spring water is born from the squeezing of the rocks, and the grass nourished by the spring water must be different, so it is possible that Soku also saw this wonder and looked for the source. Thinking of this, he looked up with water, and wondered in his heart, this rock wall is towering, and there should be no way to climb it.

After walking around the perimeter for a long time, she finally found a winding "road to heaven", which was easy for her, and she had been climbing in the valley for more than ten years.

After climbing for a while, he leaned down on a slightly flat rock with water, ready to take a nap. Suddenly, I heard a weak voice in front of me, as if someone was calling for help again.

Walking forward with the water, sure enough, I saw a petite figure in a light blue coat lying there behind a few ancient pines. The little man heard the sound of water, and cried weakly, "Sister... Sister, help... I, begging...".

Unexpectedly, it was a half-grown girl, kneeling beside her with water, probing her pulse, and quickly took out a pill from her inner placket and put it in her mouth. The little girl's pulse was slippery, and she had a thin layer of frost on her bun, so she should have been trapped here for a while. The cold evil has entered the body, and the qi is blocked, and now she must be brought back quickly.

Carrying the water on his back, he walked down the rugged path to the rock, regardless of his embarrassed appearance. With the memory of the time they came, it didn't take long for them to return to their resting place with water. Unexpectedly, Dukong has already returned.

Several people looked at her in surprise, not knowing why. He wiped the sweat from his head with water, and carefully placed the girl on his back next to the fire. turned around and called Dukong, "Come over and take a look, this kid was found halfway through the mountain rock, and the situation is not good."

Dukong didn't panic after hearing this, he took out a plain satin belt from his bag, and after spreading it out, there were more than a dozen silver needles of different thicknesses on it, Dukong jade fingers were lightly picked, and there were already a few more between his fingers, and he didn't hurry to stab at the child's eyebrows and a few acupuncture points in his hands, and asked Bi Baizi to take a few pills from the car and feed them into the girl's mouth one by one.

After a while, the child woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he hugged the sleeve of his coat with water tightly, and cried, "Sister, I'm afraid... Daddy fetches firewood... Lost". How can you parry with water, they all say that they are not afraid of the dog howling, but afraid of the child crying.

Daishui's heart softened, and he looked straight at Dukong Dao, "Master Dukong, let's take her all the way, this child is still very weak..."

"No". A faint sound of rejection swept into the air, and it was from the mouth of the person she admired the most.

With a look of disbelief, as if he didn't hear clearly, he was about to ask again, but Dukong had already turned his back, and his resolute attitude was clearly visible.

Bi Baizi hurriedly walked over and pulled the water, "Ah Shui, the division commander is angry." It's just after a little now, and the woods are very safe, so let's take her away, and maybe her father won't be able to find her in a while."

Daishui was aggrieved and annoyed, and said excitedly, "I used to think that Master Dukong was a righteous person, but this time, it seems that he is just a hypocrite." After saying that, he gently pushed away the child who was entangled, coaxed a few words of persuasion, and was about to get up and leave. The child's expression was suddenly a little strange, and a cruel smile appeared on his face, Bi Baizi secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly pounced on the body with water.

"Ah——!h Before Daishui could react to the series of actions that were happening in front of him, he heard Bi Baizi's throbbing screams explode in his ears. Dukong Ben was in the distance, and hurriedly rushed over after hearing the sound, and the kid saw a few arrow steps and quickly left here, not looking like the thin and weak appearance just now.

The water turned over Bi Baizi's arm, and it was vaguely visible that there was a black blue on the forearm of his left hand, and there were two deep teeth. It's a snake, and from the color of the wound, you can see that this snake venom is a bit powerful, and the little girl wants her life.

Bi Baizi held his head with his other hand, frowned, obviously had symptoms of dizziness and nausea, and said something slurred, slowly put her flat on the ground with water, took out a knife, and roasted it on the fire for a while, preparing to cut a cross-shaped incision at the wound to expel the venom.

Dukong raised Bi Baizi's arm, took a closer look at the wound, and said calmly, "Five-step snake."

When Daishui heard this, she hurriedly stopped what she was doing, but she couldn't see that it was a five-step snake, the blood circulation of the five-step snake was extremely poisonous, and if she used her method, cutting the cross again would only bleed even more.

Dukong didn't seem to care about what happened just now, he tore off a strip of cloth from his body, took out several herbs from his bag, found a stone from the side and pounded the medicinal juice, and said calmly without raising his head, "Take some water."

Daishui felt guilty in his heart, but he didn't dare to delay, and cooperated with Dukong, and after a while, he took care of the wound, and the two carried Bi Baizi into the carriage again, and then eased up. Dukong looked at the sky and motioned for the driver to prepare for his journey.

In the carriage, it was not as noisy as in the morning, and Bi Baizi, who was the most lively on weekdays, was now pale and unconscious. It's rare to have a calm temperament with water, and looking at her like this, her face is also full of sadness. Daishui's eyes lowered, he pursed his lips, and whispered, "Master Dukong, I...". As if expecting it, Dukong suddenly said, "She still has some residual poison in her body, and she may have a fever for a while, I'll rest for a while, you can watch it."

The sound was not loud or small, just overshadowing the words of Obisui who was about to admit his mistake, and when he looked at it again, Dukong had already closed his eyes. With a sudden burst of water, he prepared a dry linen cloth on the side, and fed Bi Baizi a few mouthfuls of water.

The carriage swayed, and the water looked out through the gap in the curtain, wondering what to ponder.
