Chapter 31: Wormwood
Seeing the terrifying insect writhing its huge body and approaching him, the old village chief was immediately frightened and the six souls were lost, and he screamed in horror and almost broke his breath.
"Don't! Don't come near me! ”
Although he could no longer control his limbs, the old village chief still tried to lean his waist back, even if he could only keep himself away from the strange insect a little, he would feel a lot more relieved.
"I can't help you now!!"
Accompanied by the judgment of the old woman in the black robe.
The insects in the body suddenly seemed to be agitated, those insects began to move to the whole body, the pain in the limbs began to transfer to the whole body, and the old village chief could even hear the sound of those insects in the body bypassing their blood vessels and crawling in their own flesh and blood!
As if he was experiencing a thousand cuts and tortures, the pale-faced old village chief wanted to scream, but it was as if something was stuck in his throat.
Eventually, he couldn't bear the pain anymore and collapsed to the ground like a pile of mud.
The old village chief looked forward in despair, and the terrifying Gu King Worm gradually approached his head. Six bright red eyes stared at him mercilessly.
The old village chief was chilled all over his body, and he finally understood what the vicious old woman meant when she said that life was better than death! He wanted to beg the old woman to kill him, but unfortunately he couldn't even speak.
Woo!
Something nauseous was rough into my throat, and it was tearing like pain.
Feeling that the Gu King Worm was entering his body along his throat, his will suddenly collapsed, but at the same time, he also felt that his brain could no longer control his body.
Seeing that the Gu King Worm had smoothly entered the old village chief's body, the voice of the black-robed old woman suddenly became a lot happier.
"I'll leave it to you, kid!"
With that, the black-robed old woman turned to the direction where the two children had fled, and a cold wind blew, and the black-robed hunt was lifted, revealing the black-robed woman's feet.
They weren't human feet at all, but beast-like claws and toes, with rough, hard skin.
With a slight leap, the figure of the black-robed woman disappeared into the night like a ghost.
In a ridge, there are weeds everywhere, and two thin figures are walking through the weed field, as long as you pass through this weed field, and then climb up the hillside, you can see the ancestral hall dedicated to the gods.
Tie Dan and Wu Niu were angry, with a panicked face, and looked behind them from time to time, for fear that those monsters would catch up.
"Ahh
During the run, the weak five girls tripped over the stones in the weeds and fell on their heels.
Tie Dan heard the movement behind him, and immediately turned around and saw Wuniu falling to the ground with a painful look.
found that the five girls had fallen, and Tie Dan immediately went over to help.
"Are you alright?" Tie Dan stretched out his hand with a concerned face.
Taking the hand of Tie Dan's help, Wu Niu shook her head strongly.
"Brother Tiedan, I'm fine, let's keep running! Otherwise, those strange insects will catch up later! ”
Tie Dan was puzzled in his heart, looking at the pain on Wuniu's face, it seemed that she was fine, and when she picked it up, she saw that her cloth skirt had already been torn, her bare legs were full of scars, and her knees had been peeled open, which should have been caused by the fall just now.
"Ahh You're so badly hurt! No way! To deal with your wounds first! ”
Seeing the wounds on Wu Niu's legs, Tie Dan's heart suddenly lost his mind to go to the ancestral hall, he looked up, and then ran to the weeds in the distance.
Bang bang bang!
Turning over the weeds in the field, Tie Dan was not a fool, he was looking for the kind of unique grass in the field that had five small pieces of leaves.
Tie Dan was an orphan who was adopted by his uncle, and he was diligent and studious since he was a child, and he learned a lot from adults.
For example, this weed is called wormwood, and legend has it that the gods worshiped gave them a gift from Changning Village, and this weed has the effect of stopping bleeding and healing wounds.
Looking at the handful of wormwood in his hand with satisfaction, Tie Dan ran back to Wu Niu, squatted down, and looked serious: "Wu Niu, this grass can treat the injury on your leg, but it will hurt a little, you bear with it!" ”
Seeing Tie Dan's serious face, Wu Niu knew that she couldn't refuse, so she nodded bravely.
"Brother Tiedan, don't worry, I'm not afraid of pain!"
Saying this, Wu Niu closed her eyes and bit her sleeve, and didn't look at Tie Dan, looking like she completely trusted him.
Seeing Wu Niu's resolute face, Tie Dan also took a deep breath, it was the first time he used Ai Ye to treat people, and his heart was a little uncertain, but Wu Niu's bravery seemed to give him courage. So he divided the wormwood in his hand into two parts, crumpled one into a ball, then pinched it flat, and pasted it to the wounded place.
For a moment, Tie Dan obviously felt the five girls tremble, but fortunately, she held back and didn't scream.
Tie Dan breathed a sigh of relief, isn't the process of the secret path so complicated! When I raised my head, I saw that Wuniu's teeth were trembling as she bit her sleeves, and her face was pale and dripping with cold sweat.
Tie Dan suddenly felt guilty for what he had just thought. Wu Niu must not want to worry about herself, so she tried to be so calm, thinking about the action of the iron egg dressing a little gentle.
Let the leaves of wormwood completely cover the wound, and then Tie Dan found a thread on his old clothes, and pulled it hard, pulling out a slender cotton rope.
Use this cotton rope to spare the knee of the five girls a few times, until the mugwort leaf is completely tied to the wound.
After doing this, Iron Egg crushed another part of the weed, then kneaded out the grass juice and dripped it onto the small wounds on his legs.
And in this process, Wu Niu has not been looking.
"That's it!"
After taking care of Wuniu's wounds, Tie Dan stood up and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Wuniu opened her eyes, let go of her teeth, let go of her sleeves, and looked at the simple bandaging on her legs, she suddenly felt very warm.
But I also know that now is not the time to be grateful, so I limp to my feet and want to move forward.
Seeing that Wuniu was unable to move, Tie Dan frowned: "Or I'll carry you!" ”
When Wu Niu heard this, her little head shook like a rattle: "Brother Tiedan, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, you run fast, you go to the ancestral hall to ring the bell first, and I'll just find a place to hide here!" ”
Tie Dan lowered his head and thought about it, feeling that Wu Niu's words were not unreasonable, just as he was about to nod his head in agreement.
An evil wind blew in the distance, accompanied by a strong smell of potions.
An old woman in a black robe floated like a ghost on the ridge.
Hearing that the two little dolls were still discussing how to run, the black-robed old woman suddenly sneered.
"Two little dolls! You can't run! ”
The gloomy voice was like a ghost howling in the night, and the two children, Tie Dan and Wu Niu, were shocked when they heard this voice.
At this time, Tie Dan didn't care whether the five girls agreed or not, and directly took the initiative to pick up her body and began to run towards the small hill in the distance.
However, with the five girls on his back, the speed of the iron egg has obviously dropped by a notch.
The ghostly black-robed old woman was getting closer and closer, and the five girls who were being carried on her back looked back, thinking that Brother Tie Dan would definitely have no hope of escaping behind her back, and immediately cried and begged: "Brother Tie Dan, let me go quickly!" Otherwise, we won't be able to run away! ”
Wu Niu's crying, Tie Dan didn't hear it, but his face was firm: "Wu Niu, I won't leave you and run alone!" ”
The black-robed old woman who came after heard the conversation between the two, and her hoarse voice carried a hint of sarcasm: "What a love and righteousness of two little dolls, since you want to be together, then stay together!" ”
The claws and toes of her lower body suddenly exerted force, and the old woman in black robe suddenly flew up like an eagle, and the distance between her and the two escaped little dolls was instantly narrowed.
The body floated in the air, looking down at the panting iron egg with five girls on his back.
At the same time, a terrifying old face emerged from under the black robe.
