Chapter 361: Cutting off food again
In the daytime, Arashiyama is shrouded in clouds and mist, and is full of greenery, as if it has endless charm, attracting people to explore the secrets. However, after the sun sets, Arashiyama is like a bottomless black hole, with unknown dangers lurking everywhere, as if taking half a step forward, it is the abyss.
Jin Gui said that he would take them on the path, but there was no road in front of them, and in the darkness without the moon, the whole land was covered with vegetation, hindering their way forward.
Without waiting for Jin Gui's guidance, Shen Yiyi took out a woodcutter and slashed at the vines and shrubs neatly, cutting a path. Jin Gui nodded approvingly: "You are an expert." β
"It's not a connoisseur, but it's not a stranger either." In the dark, Shen Yiyi smiled and followed Agui's slight footsteps all the way forward.
At this moment, she seemed to have returned to the past, in order to squat in the mushrooms, the cat spent several days in the deep mountains and old forests, and finally fell off the cliff and crossed here.
If she hadn't fallen off the cliff, she wouldn't have met Cai Li, and this time she entered the mountain in another time and space, it was also for Cai Li, perhaps, she should have a relationship with the mountains.
On the other hand, Shi and the others, holding a woodcutter in their hands, were at a loss, and it was only under Jin Gui's guidance that they figured out how to open the way. Only then did the stone understand the meaning of Jin Gui's words just now, it turned out that the people who were dragging their feet were really not Shen Yiyi, but them. However, how did Shen Yiyi understand this? He wondered.
In the jungle, there are swarms of fireflies, dotted with stars. With the faint fluorescence, Jin Gui pointed out some herbs to Shen Yiyi from time to time, and whispered to her: "Look, that's Qigu grass, that's Tongquan grass, and nettle ......."
Medicine and food are not separated, Shen Yiyi knows these things, and she also knows that nettles can be eaten as vegetables. Shen Yiyi watched with interest and nodded from time to time.
It was very quiet, except for the sound of insects chirping and frogs. Jin Gui said that this path is rarely visited because of the many herbs and the pungent smell for wild beasts, and they are relatively safe. And the terrain of Lanshan is complex, there are many wild beasts, and coming out to patrol at night is equivalent to looking for death, so they don't have to worry about Chen Jun.
The group walked forward with confidence, but Shi and the others were soldiers in the end, and they were very vigilant, and they pricked up their ears from time to time to pay attention to the surrounding sounds.
Although Shi and the others were very vigilant, Jin Gui was still very dissatisfied, and muttered to Shen Yiyi in a low voice: "Who sent them?" Is it really General Cai's person? I see that they are in this mountain, and they can't even walk steadily, how can they find someone? If you meet Chen Jun, I am afraid that before I have time to resist, I will be killed first. β
Shen Yiyi secretly smiled bitterly. The soldiers in the capital are naturally not familiar with the situation in southern Xinjiang. Moreover, during the Chinese New Year, the matter was urgent, and it was estimated that the imperial court would not have time to train them. If she hadn't had the experience she had accumulated before the crossing, she would definitely not be as good as them at this time.
Jin Gui saw that Shen Yiyi didn't answer, so he had to change the subject: "Madam, where are you from, why are you getting involved with these soldiers?" Does your husband's family care about you? β
Husband's family? Her husband is trapped somewhere in Arashiyama, waiting for her to save him. Obviously suffering at the moment, Shen Yiyi thought of Cai Li, but couldn't help but smile: "My husband's family can't control me." β
Can't control the husband's family? How wild is that? Jin Gui looked at her in surprise.
"I'm kidding." Shen Yiyi hurriedly said, "I am from Wuchang Mansion, and my husband is also trapped in Lanshan, I want to save him, so I followed him with a dead face." β
"Your husband is also trapped in Arashiyama?" Jin Gui was surprised, "Your husband, isn't it General Xiao Cai?" β
Although Shen Yiyi did not reveal her identity, he could see the respect that Shi and others had for her.
Shen Yiyi shook her head with a smile: "My mother's family is just a merchant, where can I climb to General Xiao Cai, he is just a small leader." β
The daughter-in-law of the little leader will be respectfully called Madame? Jin Gui didn't believe it very much, but seeing that Shen Yiyi was skillful in using a woodcutter to open the way, he didn't look like a pampered lady in the courtyard of the deep mansion, so he didn't ask again.
As he walked, Jin Gui suddenly had a surprise on his face and threw himself towards the bushes next to him. Shen Yiyi was worried that the people behind him would bump into him, so he hurriedly raised his hand to signal.
Shi just wanted to ask what was wrong, but he saw Jin Gui standing up in surprise when he saw Jin Gui holding a small piece of grass in his hand surrounded by fireflies: "I actually found this!" No wonder I haven't found it for so many years, it turns out that it's easy to find at night because it glows! β
"What is this?" Shen Yiyi asked suspiciously.
Jin Gui was afraid of delaying the journey, so he didn't stop long, and while walking forward, he explained to Shen Yiyi: "This grass has no name, and almost no one has seen it, so I looked for it myself, and asked others to find it, but I never found it." β
"No name? Nameless grass? Shen Yiyi found that this grass had its own fluorescence, and poked her head out curiously to take a look.
"Nameless grass? Okay, let's call it Nameless Grass. Jin Guile smiled, "My grandson brought the problem from his mother's womb, and he coughed at night and couldn't sleep." For his problem, I don't know how many Langzhong I found, and later a miracle doctor was kind and prescribed a prescription, and only took two doses, and most of them were cured. Originally, after eating it a few more times, it would be cured, but the medicine was cut off, and it was this nameless grass. Now it's okay, with the medicine primer, my grandson will soon be able to cough and sleep well. β
"Congratulations to Uncle Jin." Shen Yiyi didn't expect that there would be such a harvest when she entered Lanshan this time, and she was sincerely happy for Jin Gui.
"Madam, you are my lucky star!" Jin Gui held the grass in his hand, and couldn't see enough, "If it weren't for you, how would I go up the mountain at night, if it wasn't for the mountain at night, how would I find this nameless grass?" β
Jin Gui took them for another while, deeper and deeper into the old forest, as the road became more and more difficult, everyone stopped talking with a tacit understanding, and in the quiet night, the sound of woodcutters parting the dense bushes could be heard.
Suddenly, there was a very slight sound in the air, and before Shen Yiyi could react, he heard a bang behind him, and a person fell.
What's going on?! Perhaps it was the woman's intuition, and despite her confusion, she subconsciously squatted down.
In the darkness, someone went to investigate the situation of the teammate who fell to the ground, and Stone, as the captain, looked around intently and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?!" β
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Jin Gui pounce, hugging his neck and crushing him to the ground.
"Kimber, what are you doingβ" Stone said as he spoke, feeling that something was wrong, and reached out to push Jin Gui, but found that he couldn't do it. He hurriedly sat up with Jin Gui in his arms and reached out to touch his neck.
Shen Yiyi suddenly realized something, and hurriedly stopped it: "Don't touch it!" β
