Chapter 64: Ten Years of Fighting Poison
At the mention of Su Niang, Qin Chunling trembled slightly, and said: "Over the years, I have been deliberately delaying, and the poisonous evil has asked me, and there is nothing I can do about it, and I also know that I am not afraid of life and death, and I am afraid that I will report to the official to find someone or something, so I use Su Niang's safety to threaten me, let me throw a mouse taboo, and dare not act rashly." Therefore, I can only delay as much as possible, and deal with it, hoping to find a suitable time to rescue Su Niang and the villagers. ”
Ning He gently put his hand on his shoulder to comfort, "Don't worry, Su Niang is not poisoned." It's just ......"
"I know that Su Niang ate the honey brought back by the poisonous demon and was poisoned and dumb." Qin Chunling was sad.
"Don't worry, Lao Wu will heal her." Ning He was as bitter as the wind and drizzle, and continued to ask: "How did you later return to Feisha Village, meet Su Niang and reveal some news to her?" ”
"Yes, yes! Didn't the poisonous demon say that you might not be able to go back to Feisha Village again? How did you get back? Shen Wuyu was also extremely curious and came to watch.
"That's because I did a big stupid thing, so he let me go back to get together with Su Niang." Qin Chunling's answer was unexpected, causing everyone to be stunned in place.
did a big stupid thing, but the poison didn't kill him, and he was kind enough to let him go back to meet Su Niang to reunite.
It's incomprehensible!
Qin Chunling saw that everyone's faces were confused, and he also knew that his words were contradictory, so he solemnly explained the reason:
"Three years ago, I finally found the whereabouts of the giant salamander in a mountain stream on Fengwei Peak. However, I didn't intend to tell Poison. Because I know that once the poison gets the giant salamander, I will lose my life. Not only me, but also Su Niang and the villagers will be in danger.
So, while continuing to procrastinate and perfunctory him, I actively looked for other opportunities......"
Everyone who was originally going to rest gathered around and listened to Qin Chunling continue to speak.
"In the evening of that day, I was wandering by a mountain stream when I suddenly heard a faint sound not far away, so I quietly went to check on it.
When I got closer, I heard the conversation between the two:
The male one was pleasantly surprised: "We actually saw the legendary baby fish, it's amazing."
The second male regrets: If you hadn't made a noise and scared it away, maybe we would have caught it, and we would have been able to sell it for a good price, and we would never have to hunt white foxes all over the mountains anymore, what a pity......
It was two hunters who went into the mountains to hunt for the precious white fox, and finally came here by accident and rested next to the mountain stream where I once found the giant salamander.
Coincidentally, it coincided with the activities of the giant salamander in the mountain stream, and it coincided with the full moon night of the fifteenth, and the moonlight was bright, so they clearly saw the legendary giant salamander, but unfortunately they missed it.
Although the mountains are high and the clouds are deep, hunters and herb pickers often walk in the mountains. In the past few years, I have occasionally encountered them two or three times, but I have quietly avoided them, for fear that the poisonous evil will know about them and implicate them.
But this time is different, because I have already found the giant salamander, and I am afraid that the treacherous poison will find out, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
So, I had an idea, and deliberately made some traces along the way, so that the two hunters mistakenly thought that they were the traces left by the white fox, and followed me all the way, and finally chased me to the depths of a dense forest behind Fengwei Peak......"
Qin Chunling was a little tired and stopped talking, and everyone looked at him with blank eyes, waiting for the following.
"In the depths of that dense forest, there is a large forest of golden silk nanmu that I stumbled upon when I was looking for a giant salamander...... Ahem...... "He coughed uncontrollably, unable to continue.
Ning He intimately handed over the water bladder and gently patted his back, "Don't worry, I'll talk about it later." ”
When everyone was silent, Li Wanyan answered thoughtfully, "I see, I understand, you deliberately led them to the depths of the dense forest, just so that they could discover the golden silk nanmu forest there." Nanmu is the thing used by the royal family today, and it has always been that if anyone who finds this wood reports to the government, the court has a huge bounty.
Therefore, the final result was that the two hunters reported the matter to the government, and the government did not dare to slack off, and soon sent people into the mountains to investigate.
You're just waiting for the government to come, and only when they come, you can take the opportunity to ask them for help. Because, only the government is more reliable in dealing with poison and rescuing the villagers. ”
Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Chunling, waiting for him to confirm the former's inference. He had already regained his strength, so he nodded gloomily, "I originally planned to do so, but it backfired......
After a long silence, he continued heavily, "Since then, I have waited silently, pinning all my hopes on this. Three months later, I went back to report the results to the poisonous evil as usual, and when I passed through the mountains behind Feisha Village, I felt sad and homesick for a while, and I couldn't bear to leave, so I looked at Feisha Village in a daze.
At this moment, a group of people came down the mountain, and I only listened to the movement, and there was no less than thirty or forty people in my ears. Then I heard two familiar voices, vaguely the voices of the two hunters from before. Then, they bypassed Feisha Village and headed straight in the direction of Fengwei Peak.
It was the two hunters who had come to the mountains with the people of the government a few months ago, and I was overjoyed and wept with joy at the thought that what I had hoped for was about to come true.
However, an eerie sigh came from the depths of hell behind me, freezing me in place.
The poisonous demon who was supposed to raise those flying insect poisons in Huya Island quietly hid behind me at some point, and let out a demonic sigh as he watched the group of people in front of him pass by in front of him.
At that moment, I knew that my plan was about to be ruined, and that group of people would also face unknown dangers.
Fighting back to despair and fear, I forced myself to compose.
The poisonous demon asked if the people in the government were provoked by me, but I denied it without changing my face, and he didn't say much, so he quietly followed those people. Naturally, I followed him from afar.
In the past few years, he has often traveled around the mountains, and he is also very familiar with the situation on the mountain, and he soon rushed to the front of the group.
Then, I don't know what means he used, and when I rushed to the dense forest behind Fengwei Peak again, I couldn't find any trace of that group of people.
I was very worried, afraid that the poisonous demon would kill them, but who knew that the poisonous demon suddenly appeared behind me and told me gloomily, telling me to rest assured that he would not kill people blatantly anymore, he would only use invisible ways to harm people.
Because, he now enjoys this high-end and covert killing pleasure even more...... Silent, unconscious, and untraceable.
For example, all the eyes of the people in Feisha Village have become blind and blind, but no one knows what it is......"
Qin Chunling choked up and couldn't go on, everyone was filled with righteous indignation when they heard it, their blood was spurting, their green tendons were bulging, and their hairs stood on end.
Shen Wuxian slammed his fist on the ground, and in the dust, he wanted to get up, "I'm going to kill that evil ghost." ”
Ning He was prepared, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he pressed him, "Old Wu, don't be impatient." The poison is inside, he can't run, and naturally he is not far from death. ”
Shen had no choice but to give up and sit down and gasp. Wen Li, who was beside him, clenched his hands, and although he was still extremely frightened, he still had the courage to ask the aftermath: "What happened to the people in the Poison General's Mansion?" Killed them all? ”
"I want to know, too, but I don't dare to ask and can't ask, I just know that they must be unlucky. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have come into the mountains, if it weren't for me, the poison wouldn't have found them, and if it weren't for me, they wouldn't have lived or died, it's all my fault! I hurt them. Qin Chunling blamed himself for not being at the beginning, was heartbroken, and slammed his fist on the ground.
So, that's the stupid thing he said?
But it's excusable, and it's not stupid.
Seeing that his question forced him to be so sad and remorseful, Wen Wen Li felt ashamed, and hurriedly pressed his fist and comforted him intimately, "It's none of your business, you are also here to save everyone, this is human nature, I really don't blame you." ”
Qin Chunling still closed his eyes and looked desperate and sad. Ning He saw that the nerd's comfort had no effect, so he also joined the comfort crowd and spoke with facts: "Don't worry, the people from the government were not killed, I don't know what the poisonous demons did on the way, even if they had hunters who were familiar with the road conditions to lead the way, they didn't find the golden silk nanmu forest in the end, but strayed into a primeval dense forest, walked for three months before coming out, killed and injured more than half, and finally returned fruitless." ”
Qin Chunling's face was happy at first, and then gloomy and depressed, "No matter what, there are still people who die because of my thoughts, I'm sorry for them......"
"But in the end, it was because of your thought that I saved you and saved the whole village of Feisha Village." Ning He said bitterly and continued to persuade.
Qin Chunling: "? ”
But why bother to make the whole thing coherent at this moment, so he said, "Don't worry, you can tell me what you did later?" ”
Li Wanyan, who had been listening quietly, glanced at Ning Heku lightly, and then moved her gaze to Qin Chunling again.
Although Qin Chunling didn't know the complicated cause and effect, he did not have many things clearly, so he calmed down and said:
"Later, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the poison, I pretended to find the golden silk nanmu forest. And because he accidentally fell and injured his leg and was not good at walking, I made a cane for him with nanmu. Later, after another year, I told him that I had found a trace of a giant salamander in the mountain stream of Fengwei Peak.
He went excitedly and heard the cry of the giant salamander. However, the giant salamander only comes out at night, and on moonless nights, when it sees the fire, it is frightened and hides in the depths of the cave, and it will be several months before it comes out again.
Therefore, the poison has never succeeded. Later, he seemed impatient, for he had been in the mountains for eleven years, and he became restless, bent on catching the giant salamander as soon as possible and leaving the mountain in the fog.
So, I took the opportunity and told him that I had a way to catch the giant salamander as soon as possible, on the condition that he let me go back and meet Su Niang......"
