In the mountains and forests, a figure is wandering among various plants.

Mu Xue carried a bamboo basket on her back and collected edible plants in the mountains and forests.

She saw a berry, skillfully picked it, and put it in a bamboo basket.

Mu Xue has lived here for a long time, and she knows what kind of fruit can be eaten and what kind of plant is poisonous.

"You can't go any further, there's a man-eating flower in front of you."

In this mountain forest, where there are man-eating flowers, where there are powerful giant insects, everyone in these valleys knows it.

At the dawn of the Cataclysm, many people died in the mouths of man-eating flowers and giant insects.

All the information they know is in exchange for their lives.

"Huh, that's?"

When Mu Xue was about to leave, she saw a red fruit on the branch above her head.

This fruit is tender and delicious, and it is not small, bigger than Mu Xue's palm.

At this stage, food is in short supply, and such a fruit is enough for Mu Xue to treat it as a dinner.

Mu Xue observed that the fruit was about ten meters high from the ground, and it was on the branch of a big tree next to it.

This fruit is worth Mu Xue's effort to pick, you must know that she collected in the forest all morning, and only found three or four wild fruits.

In order to fill the stomach, even the sour and astringent fruit is very precious as long as it is not poisonous.

Mu Xue put down the bamboo basket on her arm and climbed the big tree next to her with difficulty.

She is just an ordinary person who has not awakened, and this large tree with a diameter of several meters is difficult for her to climb.

Finally, after a lot of effort, Mu Xue climbed the big tree and picked this plump and bright fruit on the treetops.

Mu Xue held the fruit in the palm of her hand, and saliva was already subconsciously flowing out of her mouth.

She longed to eat the delicious fruit now.

Thinking of the scarcity of food, Mu Xue held back, she wanted to eat this fruit when she needed it most.

When Mu Xue harvested the fruit and was about to climb down the tree, he saw a person lying on the grass in the distance.

——————

"How could anyone go over there?"

Mu Xue was puzzled.

She climbed down the tree, picked up the basket, and walked cautiously in the direction of the stranger.

Every step Mu Xue took, she had to look around, because the direction she was moving in was the territory of the cannibal flower.

She picked up a branch and held it in her hand, as if it would give her a sense of security.

As Mu Xue approached the figure, she was startled when she saw it clearly.

"Ahh

Mu Xue let out a short scream.

The man was covered in scars and red with blood, and lay motionless on the ground.

"A dead man?"

Mu Xue's body trembled slightly, for an ordinary woman, a corpse lying in the forest was too infiltrating.

"I wonder who was so careless?"

Mu Xue thought that this person was from the valley, because after the cataclysmic era, only the people in the valley would appear in this mountain forest.

This person was covered in scars, and Mu Xue couldn't see his face clearly.

Mu Xue endured the fear in her heart and walked to this person's side.

She took a closer look at the man's face and saw that she hadn't seen it, and it wasn't someone who lived in the valley.

"How did he end up here?"

Mu Xue couldn't figure it out, and then she saw that the chest of this "corpse" rose and fell slightly.

The sudden appearance of the "corpse" frightened Mu Xue into taking a few steps back.

"Still, still alive?"

Mu Xue couldn't believe that the wounds on this person's body were terrifying and hideous, and he couldn't see a piece of intact skin on his body, but he was still alive?

Gathering her courage, she walked over to the man again, leaned down, and put her finger in front of his nostril.

Feeling the slightly hot breath exhaled from this person's nostrils, Mu Xue was sure that this person was really alive.

Mu Xue hesitated for a moment and decided to bring this man of unknown origin back.

——————

After Chu Fan's mutant man-eating flower exploded, his body flew out more than ten meters.

He hadn't lost consciousness yet, and he struggled forward for a distance, and then his eyes went black.

The man behind Mu Xue was none other than Chu Fan, who was seriously injured and unconscious.

Originally, Mu Xue wanted to carry Chu Fan, but she didn't expect Chu Fan to be so heavy, as an ordinary person, she couldn't carry it at all.

So Mu Xue put Chu Fan on a huge leaf and dragged the leaf towards the valley.

Mu Xue bent over, dragged Chu Fan with difficulty, and led him step by step into the valley.

It is a narrow valley, and the distance between the two rock walls is only two or three meters at the narrowest point, and only twenty or thirty meters wide at the place.

In this valley, hundreds of wooden houses are scattered in the middle.

Mu Xue lives here.

In the middle of the valley, there is a small stream.

Several women were washing their clothes here.

Mu Xue, who dragged Chu Fan into the valley, attracted the attention of these people.

"Look, what's behind that ugly girl?"

"Why did she come back with a corpse?"

"That's unlucky, isn't it?"

“……”

After Mu Xue approached, her heart sank when she heard the discussion of these people.

She originally wanted to ask these people to help her, but now it seems that these people will not help her at all.

Mu Xue knew her place in the hearts of these people, and she was used to it.

She was just a little depressed, and the words of these people couldn't make too many waves in her heart.

Mu Xue said out loud: "This person is still alive, I found it in the forest." ”

After speaking, Mu Xue continued to drag Chu Fan and walked towards his residence.

Behind Mu Xue, several women were still talking about her.

"That person is injured like that, can he still live?"

"It's so nosy, I can't live anymore, and I still want to save others."

"I'm not going to help anyway."

"Don't say that, when everyone is in trouble, they all live in a valley, and they can help if they can."

"Nicely, would you give her your food?"

"I ......"

——————

After Mu Xue took Chu Fan home, he put it on and put it on.

It is a simple wooden house with only a few rudimentary wooden furniture.

Mu Xue carried a bucket and went to the creek to fetch a bucket of water.

She first wiped Chu Fan's body with a wet towel, and a large amount of blood stains formed blood scales on Chu Fan's body.

There was not only red blood, but also various green and black blood stains.

After Mu Xue wiped Chu Fan, the water in the entire bucket changed color.

The stains were removed, revealing Chu Fan's bronzed skin and the scars.

"This, it should hurt."

Mu Xue could feel the pain just by looking at these scars.

When she was a child, she learned a little knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, which was taught to her by her grandfather, and she could distinguish some of the Chinese herbs in the mountains and forests.

Mu Xue carried a bamboo basket and went to the mountains and forests to collect herbs.

It wasn't until evening, when night was about to fall, that Mu Xue returned.

Mu Xue chewed those herbs for external use and applied them to Chu Fan's body.

I boiled some more medicinal soup and patiently poured it into Chu Fan's mouth.

She could observe that Chu Fan's breathing was getting stronger and stronger.
