Chapter 9: Poisons

Bluestone Peak is located in the north of Horseshoe Mountain, the mountain is dangerous, the peak is high and the valley is deep. The road into the mountain is rugged and difficult, and the mountain is very steep. Hunters don't come here to hunt, and only a few experienced hunters do, because the beasts here are relatively large, and the fur can always be fetched for a good price.

Mu Yuncheng did not stay in the village, the main reason was that Mo Yiyue didn't want him to be lazy, saying that he would take him with him for training. And he also promised him that as long as Mu Yuncheng listened to him all the way, he could be guaranteed that he would not be harmed. Mu Yuncheng actually believed in Mo Yiyue very much in his heart, knowing that he was not a casual boaster, and besides, he was not a greedy person who was afraid of death, but he was in a hurry to go to Jiangzhou. If Mo Yiyue was allowed to go up the mountain alone, he would definitely be even more worried. I simply went with him, and we were together in life and death.

This is also one of the reasons why Mo Yiyue and Mu Yuncheng have a good relationship, although Mu Yuncheng is a playful person, he is still very principled in major matters, and he is also very attentive to his friends, and he is definitely not the kind of person who is treacherous. And as a good friend, these are enough, and the rest are just some small problems in personal character, and those who can tolerate it will not care.

The two of them went up the mountain road, and the corpses of rotting beasts were really all on it, and the stench hit repeatedly, and there were several times when Mu Yuncheng was about to be smoked and vomited, but fortunately, Mo Yiyue gave him a piece of ice sandalwood leaf in time and let him hold it under his tongue. This ice sandalwood leaf is a strange thing to detoxify gas, and it can dispel the smell, what body odor, rancid smell, corpse odor, can be solved with only one piece. Contained under the tongue, the poisonous gas does not invade, and it has the effect of moistening the throat. In Mu Yuncheng's words, it is cold and cold, and the taste is wonderful.

"Yuncheng, look. Mo Yiyue squatted down next to a corpse that had been decomposing for a long time, and picked up the rotten flesh from the branches scattered on the ground and pointed it out to Mu Yuncheng.

Mu Yuncheng stepped forward with great reluctance, this was the corpse of a wild boar, the festering began from the inside, the exposed bones had been blackened, it was obvious that the wild boar had been poisoned. The trees on both sides were smashed to pieces, and one of its fierce fangs was broken, so you can imagine how painful the boar was when it died.

"What is this?" Mu Yuncheng saw that the wild boar was dying miserably, and hurriedly retreated to the back and sighed twice.

Mo Yiyue only shook her head at this, but it should be concluded that it was caused by some kind of poison.

"This monster is supposed to be some kind of poison, but since it is poison, I have never heard of such a murderous nature. Mo Yiyue lowered her head and pondered, and Mu Yuncheng on the side listened and said: "Maybe it was injured, and I was afraid that there would be living creatures around it to invade it, so I killed the killer." Or maybe it's so poisonous that you can poison these beasts just by walking around. ”

Mo Yiyue nodded in agreement when she heard this, and raised her head to look at Mu Yuncheng with an approving gaze.

"But there is another point that doesn't make sense, that is, since the beasts are dead, it means that this poison is very poisonous, but why are the surrounding trees not affected and not withered?" Mu Yuncheng stood next to a nearby tree, carefully observing and questioning.

"It should be a domineering insect venom, and it is parasitic. Mo Yiyue looked down at the carcass of the wild boar that had already decomposed, and replied in a low voice after a long time. Because just now, when he looked through the carrion, he found that there were countless thin insect eggs in several places, dense and disgusting.

"What! parasitic insect poison?" Mu Yuncheng was horrified in his heart, knowing that this kind of thing was extremely contagious. If it spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable. And this poison is obviously not here, and it has left a curse in many places along the way.

Thinking of this, Mu Yuncheng was inexplicably worried.

"Come and see!" It turned out that Mo Yiyue had noticed something strange in front of her, and hurriedly called Mu Yuncheng over.

Mu Yuncheng's legs were trembling a little when he was walking at the moment, and he looked around and found that it was indeed a deathly silence. I don't know if the poison is still lingering in the mountains, or maybe it's hiding nearby, waiting to attack itself.

"What do you want, come on!" Mo Yiyue urged again, and Mu Yuncheng came to his senses and squatted down beside Mo Yiyue, but his eyes were still staring at the surroundings and he didn't dare to relax. Mo Yiyue saw that his eyes were staring around, so she patted him lightly, pointed to the ground and said, "Look at this." ”

Mu Yuncheng was patted by Mo Yiyue, and he was so frightened that he was shocked. When he looked down, he saw the face of a dead man who had long been unrecognizable facing him! The eyes and the gaping mouth were hollow and bottomless, and the back of the man was cold, and his scalp was numb. This scene frightened Mu Yuncheng and shouted, and sat on the ground with his butt full of cold sweat on his forehead.

"Look scares you. Mo Yiyue hurriedly helped Mu Yuncheng up, and saw Mu Yuncheng holding Mo Yiyue's sleeve and pleading: "Let's go, I don't want to stay here for a minute." ”

Mo Yiyue handed the handkerchief to Mu Yuncheng, laughed and said, "What's the matter, are you going to retreat?"

"I was wrong, I really should go home with my second uncle......" Mu Yuncheng did not take the handkerchief handed over by Mo Yiyue, but his eyes were confused, and he muttered this sentence repeatedly. Mo Yiyue was afraid that he would be frightened, so she didn't dare to joke with him anymore, so she hurriedly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, and said, "Why don't I send you back to the village first, and then I'll send you back after I get the horses after I finish this matter." ”

"No, I still have to go to Jiangzhou, how can I forget the things I agreed. Mu Yuncheng let go of the hand that was tightly gripping Mo Yiyue's sleeve, "Besides, I made a wish in front of the village chief again, and I can't go back to the village if I want to......"

Seeing that he still remembered these trivial matters, it proved that it was no big deal. Mo Yiyue was relieved at this time, and turned to check the person's body again. I saw that this man could still vaguely distinguish the cyan coat he was wearing, and the rest was no longer clear. The trees on both sides were broken, and there were traces of dragging on the ground, so I think this person must have dealt with the poison.

"Uncle Shen!" Mu Yuncheng beside him suddenly shouted, and Mo Yiyue found that although this person's whole body was charred black, his arms were indeed reddish-purple with a slightly different color from other places, and there were large round spots of different shades of black and shiny on them, and his hands looked thin and fleshless, like dead branches and rotten trees. Sure enough, it was Shen Hongling, who was known as the poisonous hand Yama!

Shen Hongling is a native of Tianxiaomen and has a deep friendship with the Mu family. And in today's great wilderness, this person is only under two people who use poison. One is the Jiuli Gu Ancestral Dragon Mother-in-law, and the other is the Great Wilderness Poison King Tianxing Gong. And how did he die here? He was killed by this poison.

Mo Yiyue didn't dare to think about it anymore, what kind of poison should this be, he had such a ability, even the poisonous hand Yama could be poisoned to death. Could it be the King of All Poisons......

I saw Mu Yuncheng crying bitterly at the corpse, and suddenly a small russet spider crawled out of the empty eyes of the corpse, with two poisonous fangs open outward, and then jumped up and attacked Mu Yuncheng directly.

"Get out of the way!" it was not Mo Yiyue who said this, but another delicate voice. A small figure jumped down from the tree, grabbed the little spider flying towards Mu Yuncheng, and then stuffed the spider into the bamboo tube around his waist. and took out a small paper bag from his arms, picked some from it, and sprinkled it on Shen Hongling's body. The whole set of actions is done in one go, without any mud and water.

"How dare you!" Looking at Shen Hongling's burning corpse, Mu Yuncheng was immediately furious and turned around and shouted.

I saw that the man had a small wreath on his head, and the whole person was also exquisite, with a pair of big watery eyes mixed with a little playfulness. The pink face is full of mischievous and smiling. The ornaments she wore were also rattling bells and small silver locks. A pair of white boots on his feet just reached his ankles, and under the ribbon-like skirt, his slender and white calves were exposed.

Mu Yuncheng was taken aback when he saw her for the first time, stood motionless in place, and shouted after a long time: "Little, aunt!"

"Tang Tang, why are you?" Mo Yiyue was also shocked when she saw this girl, and a look of joy appeared between her eyebrows, and she blurted out.

The girl heard the voices of the two and reacted. Looking at the two of them, his eyes widened a little wider, and he pointed at Mu Yuncheng and jumped up excitedly and said, "Big nephew!"

This is Mu Yuncheng's aunt, Mu Tangtang. Mu Bufan's youngest daughter, half a year younger than Mu Yuncheng, has been playing with Mo Yiyue and Mu Yuncheng since she was a child. Later, because Long Qianhui broke with Mu Bufan, he followed his mother back to Jiuli. I haven't seen Mu Yuncheng for eight years.
