Volume 3 The Nest Chapter 256 More Antidotes
Ember held the steering wheel tightly and let the truck speed wildly on the rough road, his heartbeat, echoing in the silence of the cabin, intertwined with the sound of the truck's engine, forming a symphony of life and death.
The gunfire continued behind him, and bullets flew in the back of the van like crazy bees.
But fortunately, all the bullets failed to break through the steel body of the truck, and the embers clenched their teeth, their faces were full of determination and determination, his mission was not yet complete, and he could not just fall like this.
The wagon, under the control of the embers, sprinted forward like a wild beast in desperation, and they crossed one intersection after another, driving through one wilderness after another, the tires of the wagons jumping on the rough roads, leaving behind strings of smoke and dust.
The sound of gunfire faded away until it finally disappeared completely into the ears of Ember.
He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had managed to escape from the sinister pharmaceutical factory, however, his mission was not over, and he had to deliver the goods in the carriage safely to the temporary stronghold.
Ember steadied his mind and continued to drive the truck, and at this time, a speeding mountain buggy in front of him came to an abrupt halt, and Emberfire's tense heart once again rose to his throat.
The person who came was not good, the murderous aura was too heavy, this was the first feeling of the ember, he clenched the steering wheel again, ready to run away again, but he didn't want a head to poke out of the off-road vehicle, Yu Huo saw the face clearly, it turned out to be Liu Tie, and Li Ming who was sitting in the passenger cab.
Seeing them was like seeing a long-lost relative, and Yu Huo breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his vigilance.
He quickly slowed down and pulled over, and Liu Tie jumped out of his off-road vehicle and walked to the window of the ember, his expression serious and his gaze determined, as if he had the ability to deal with whatever happened.
Liu Tie whispered to Yu Huo: "Things have become a little complicated, we need to go back as soon as possible." ”
Ember originally thought that they had come in a hurry to meet him, but he didn't want to bring bad news.
Ember had already guessed that the temporary stronghold might have happened, and immediately asked them to empty the fuel tank of the off-road vehicle and put it in the spare oil drum, at this time, driving one car is far more practical than driving two cars, and driving a car, can also take care of each other.
"Hurry up and get in the car."
Liu Tie jumped into the passenger cab, while Li Ming sat in the back seat of the truck, and the embers slammed on the accelerator and ran in the direction of the temporary stronghold.
Along the way, Liu Tie said with a somewhat depressed face: "Something happened to the temporary base, it turned out that Huang Yingge was bitten by a living corpse before we saved her, and now the corpse poison has attacked, in order to prevent her from attacking others, we tied her up first." ”
Ember knew the seriousness of the situation, Huang Yingge was the only one in the temporary stronghold who knew some medical skills, and the others had already prepared a formula that could dissolve the corpse poison, and when the potions came back, they could concoct more formulas.
Now that she is infected, it means that no one can concoct this formula that can dissolve the corpse poison, so bad news, like a thunderbolt that crushed the already desperate people, but the embers did not give up.
Because he knew that only by saving the yellow warbler pigeon first could he save everything.
Soon, the truck was already approaching the temporary stronghold, Liu Tie and Li Ming were covering this ember fire while driving, while attracting the attention of the living corpse, and at this time, the other people in the temporary stronghold were also cooperating with them.
With everyone's cooperation, the trucks loaded with potions entered the temporary stronghold intact, while the bloodthirsty living corpses were still beating and struggling outside the door.
Ember braked, jumped out of the car, and the others removed all the potions from the car and put them in the safe house of the makeshift stronghold, which was where they worked together to prepare the potions and recipes in advance.
Yu Huo didn't have time to rest, his heart tightened, he didn't care about the blood stains on his body, he hurried to the front of Huang Yingge, he watched her painful struggle, his heart seemed to be hit hard, he snorted, and hurriedly leaned down.
"How are you?"
He asked nervously, his voice with more urgency and concern than ever.
Huang Yingge barely raised his head, saw the embers, a trace of comfort flashed in his eyes, he shook his head slightly, and struggled to stand up, but he couldn't move as if he was being pressed by a mountain.
Yu Huo looked at the corpse poison on her body, black gas, like the claws of evil spirits, his heart trembled, knowing that the situation had reached the most critical moment, he could not wait any longer, he had to act immediately.
"You have to hold on, you have to hold on."
Yu Huo's voice was firm, and he took out a number of silver needles from his body, and inserted them into several acupuncture points such as her inner courtyard, Hegu, Taichong, Shangqiu, and Shaofu.
Although Yu Huo is not a doctor, he is well versed in the breadth and profundity of Chinese medicine, and naturally knows the wonderful use of silver needles.
The inner courtyard, located between the second and third toes of the human body, can effectively clear heat and detoxify, Hegu, located at the tiger's mouth of the human body, has the effect of clearing heat, Taichong, located between the big toe and the second toe of the human body, can detoxify the body, Shangqiu, located in the front and lower part of the inner malleolus, can eliminate inflammation, Shaofu, located on the palm surface, between the ring finger and the little finger bone, can dissolve the effect of excessive toxins.
Under the effect of the ember silver needle, the body of the yellow warbler quickly changed, and from the purple and black qi all over the body just now, it slowly recovered its blood color.
As a mouthful of old blood spurted out, Huang Yingge's expression gradually eased, and the painful expression gradually disappeared, replaced by a kind of serenity, and the black qi was slowly subsiding, as if forced back by this breath.
Seeing this scene, Yu Huo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he knew that his silver needle had worked, but he didn't let his guard down, and he didn't really let go until he saw Huang Yingge slowly open his eyes.
"Great, you're finally awake."
Ember helped the yellow warbler to his feet, tears glistening in his eyes.
Huang Yingge smiled lightly, found that the corners of Yu Huo's eyes were full of tears, a little unnatural, and said, "You...... Don't worry, I'm fine. ”
Yu Huo looked at her pale, but smiling face, and his heart was moved, he knew what this woman had just experienced, but she had incomparable tenacity and perseverance, and her strength deeply moved Yu Huo.
However, the battle is not over.
They must concoct more reagent formulas as soon as possible to prevent the corpse poison from continuing to spread and causing the complete fall of Meicheng.
Huang Yingge naturally knew that she was everyone's hope and the only hope to resolve this crisis, and she regained her senses, so she didn't dare to slack off at all, came to the safe house, and began the preparation of the reagent formula.
Of course, Yu Huo knew that the corpse poison on Huang Yingge's body had not been completely cleaned up, and the method of dissolving the silver needle could only be temporarily suppressed.
"Pigeon, don't mind if I call you that?"
Ember said to Huang Yingge with a smile, trying to make his words seem as relaxed as possible.
Huang Yingge shook her head, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she didn't expect Ember to call her that.
Ember knew that his words were a bit presumptuous, but he also hoped that by calling him like this, he would make Huang Yingge feel more intimate and relaxed.
"Pigeon, I know you still have corpse poison on your body now, if you want to completely eliminate it, you should use a reagent first."
Yu Huo said a little worried about her, Huang Yingge pondered for a moment, then shook his head, and said: "I don't need it first, you and Captain Liu snatched these reagents back with their lives, I can't be so selfish, there are still many people outside, waiting for us to save them." ”
Yu Huo looked at Huang Yingge's resolute expression, his heart was full of admiration, he knew that she was not only for her own safety, but also for those waiting for rescue.
"You are a hero who goes against the wind."
Ember was heartily amazed.
Huang Yingge smiled and didn't answer, just stared at the reagent, his eyes flashing with determination.
Although she didn't answer Yu Huo directly, she knew that Yu Huo and Liu Tie had encountered terrifying living corpses in this adventure, and they almost paid the price of their lives in order to be able to bring back rescue reagents.
She can't be too selfish, and she can't let Yu Huo and Liu Tie down, let alone let the people who are waiting for them to solve it completely despair.
Huang Yingge took a deep breath and strengthened the determination in her heart again, she knew her responsibility, that is, to save more people, which was also the reason why she was able to resist the erosion of corpse poison.
Therefore, Huang Yingge decided not to use reagents for the time being, but to prepare more reagents to provide more people with help to effectively resolve the corpse poison.
Huang Yingge acted quickly, she knew that time was pressing, and someone could be infected with corpse poison every minute, she opened the door of the safe house, and was greeted by a solemn atmosphere, she knew that her task was heavy, and she needed to concentrate and concoct more antidotes.
In the safe house, there are many bottles and cans, fluorescent flashes, and all kinds of reagents are as bright as gems, Huang Yingge's heart is full of determination and determination, and her fingers jump between the reagents, like a pianist playing the melody of life on the keys.
Time is like a grain of sand in an hourglass, slipping down one grain at a time. Each one touched the heartstrings of the yellow warbler, and she knew that she was in a race against time and against death.
In the end, after three days and three nights of fighting, Huang Yingge successfully concocted more antidotes, and she breathed a long sigh of relief, and a stone in her heart finally landed.
Then, when she was about to walk out of the safe house with these antidotes, her neck suddenly crooked, her body weakened, and she collapsed to the ground.
Huang Yingge's vision began to blur, her breathing became more and more difficult, she tried to stand up, but her body seemed to no longer obey her call, she felt dizzy and weak, and her limbs were weak.
"...... me?"
She thought to herself in horror that she knew that she had committed the poison again.
At the moment she fell, she saw her hands, which had been dyed dark blue by the antidote, as if they were submerged in the cold water of a lake, her heart beat faster, but her body became colder and colder.
"Quick...... Kill me. "
She said hysterically, her voice weak and shaky.
