Chapter 68: Searching for medicine in dangerous mountains
Cunyi arrived at Heiyun Mountain, but saw that there were strange trees and miasma. He knew it was a sinister place, so he didn't dare to linger any longer.
But even so, the poisonous smoke still invaded his nasal passages, and Cunyi's eyes gradually blurred, and he felt that he was about to fall asleep.
He knew that once the herb poison invaded the abdomen, it would be a dead end.
He hurriedly took out the seven-petal flower from his bosom and used the qi of the pill to temporarily seal the infestation of the grass poison, but he performed the light skill of "swift sweeping the clouds" and followed the place where the stream flowed to find the location of the toad grass.
However, "the clouds are deep and nowhere to be", the dense air in the mountains is soaring, although Cunyi has been haunted in the mountains since he was a child, but they are all beautiful green mountains, and there has never been a step-by-step crisis like this black cloud mountain. Now I am at a loss and at a loss, and I can't see the way out in front of me in the mountains.
Just when he was confused, he saw a medicine farmer walking down the winding mountain road with a medicine basket on his back. He immediately stepped forward to give a salute, and Yao Nong was shocked when he saw that it was a handsome young man standing in front of him. He asked Cunyi, what are you doing here?
Cunyi replied that he came to this mountain to find the spirit snake grass to save people. The expression on the medicine farmer's face became even more panicked. He told Cunyi that this Black Cloud Mountain is full of poisonous gas and miasma, and even the dew between the blades of grass is poisonous, how dare you take risks alone?
Cunyi expressed his gratitude to the medicine farmer, and he asked where he could pick the spirit snake grass? The medicine farmer told Cunyi that the spirit snake grass could be picked near the growth of the toad grass, but the toad grass did not really grow by the stream, but in the fracture of the cliff wall.
Cunyi told the medicine farmer that he could use light skills to climb the cliff, and asked him to point out where the toad grass grows. Yao Nong casually pointed to the path behind him, and he told Cunyi that if he walked along this path and walked through Xiangshui Creek, he could see a high mountain full of smoke and miasma, which was the real Black Cloud Mountain.
Cunyi thanked the medicine farmer, and was about to turn around and leave, but the medicine farmer stopped him. Cunyi turned around and asked the medicine farmer what else was going on?
The medicine farmer told Cunyi that even if he went to Heiyun Mountain like this, even if he made a light achievement, it would be difficult for him to climb to the edge of the cliff and obtain the spirit snake grass.
Cunyi listened and hurriedly asked the medicine farmer for the reason. The medicine farmer told Cunyi that the edge of the cliff was full of slippery moss, and even if he did a good job, he would inevitably fall down. Cunyi was shocked, and he asked the medicine farmer again, can he solve it?
The medicine farmer lifted one foot, and Cunyi saw that under the medicine farmer's shoes, there were many barbed nails. Cunyi said to the medicine farmer: "With these shoes, you can climb the edge of the cliff and not slide and fall off the cliff." ”
The medicine farmer nodded, and he told Cunyi that because the medicine farmers didn't know martial arts, if they wanted to collect medicine on this Black Cloud Mountain, in addition to these shoes, the most necessary thing was a rope. Tie it to a tree and use spikes to keep it alive.
Cunyi was very happy to hear his words, he took out a piece of silver and borrowed the medicine farmer's spiked shoes. Before leaving, the medicine farmer also gave him two pieces of eye-catching grass, and he told Cunyi that holding the blades of grass in his mouth could ward off the miasma of smoke in the mountains.
Cunyi thanked him repeatedly, and the medicine farmer told Cunyi to turn around and go to Baicao Village, ten miles southeast of the mountain, and send the spikes there. His name is Li Wu.
Cunyi nodded, and the medicine farmer saw him light, turned around and disappeared.
Following the guidance of the medicine farmer, Cunyi crossed the Xiangshui River and came to the foot of Heiyun Mountain. This mountain of black clouds towers into the clouds, and the smoke is rising from it,
From time to time, a small stream of clear water fell from the crack in the stone.
He touched the crack in the stone with his hand, and sure enough, it was covered with tiny moss. He thought to himself: "If it weren't for the help of the medicine farmers this time, don't say that you went up the mountain to collect medicine, I'm afraid that my life will be here." ”
Thinking of this, Cunyi tied up his spikes, cast "Flying Dragon into the Clouds", pointed his feet on the ground, and jumped up. He tied the rope around the thick trunk of the bowl, tied the other end to his waist, and continued to climb upwards with light feats.
A burst of gravel rolled down, and Cunyi looked down, and it was already bottomless. He held his breath, cleared the distractions in his mind, and continued to move forward.
The murmuring sound sounded above, and Cunyi looked up and saw a deep crack. His body clung to the cliff wall, creeping towards the crack step by step. In the crack, there is a grass. This grass is covered in blisters, the grass leaves are transparent and green, and his heart is secretly happy, which is the toad grass that Lang Zhong said.
Cunyi crawled forward with all his might, half of his body was already close to the crack, and his eyes faintly saw that on the stone wall in front of this grass, there was a small light grass, its rhizome was smooth, and there were only two thin leaves on the branches above.
Cunyi expected that in the place where this highly poisonous toad grass grows, only the spirit snake grass can match it, and the small grass is not far from it, so it must be the spirit snake grass.
He crouched on his stomach, reaching for the Spirit Snake Grass. At this moment, a scorpion crawled out of the crack in the stone, and as soon as the rope was loosened, his body slid down rapidly.
Cunyi rose into the air, stepped on the stone wall with both feet, and grabbed the rope again and climbed up. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that this time it was finally in danger. He also secretly admired the experience of the medicine farmer in his heart.
After some twists and turns, Cunyi took the spirit snake grass, put it in his bag, and then returned to the city according to the original path.
Cunyi handed over the spirit snake medicine to Lang Zhong, and he got up and went outside to decoct the medicine. Yufeng saw that Cunyi's arm was covered with blood, and asked with concern where it was injured?
Cunyi took her hand and said softly, "Feng'er, don't worry about these little injuries. You don't have to worry about me. ”
Yufeng said: "It's okay, look at how deep the blood stains are?" Cunyi saw her beautiful eyes of autumn water, flashing with crystal tears, knowing that she was deeply affectionate to herself, and she was very happy in her heart. So much so that he forgot the pain in his arm.
When Lang Zhong came back from decoction, he said to Cunyi: "Shaoxia, as long as I give him the decoction, I can't think of a night, he will definitely wake up." ”
Cunyi nodded in thanks, and Lang Zhong asked Cunyi to help Li Quanfa up, and poured a large mouthful of decoction into his mouth. After taking the drug,
Cunyi helped Li Quanfa and let him continue to rest.
Lang Zhong got up to say goodbye and told Cunyi that if there was anything, he could come to the pharmacy to find him. Cunyi nodded, and Lang Zhong left with the medicine box.
Hu Zhongjun's plan fell through, and Lang Zhong treated Li Quanfa, which made him furious. Not long after Lang Zhong went out, two sergeants surrounded him, one after the other.
Lang Zhong was so frightened that he trembled and asked, "Master Jun, why are you doing this?"
The sergeant wiped Lang Zhong's neck with a single knife and said to him: "I think you are impatient to live and dare to go against the Chinese army." ”
When Lang Zhong heard this, he told the sergeant in a trembling tone how dare he disobey the orders of the Chinese army, and the reason why he stayed to treat Li Quanfa was to prepare to poison him.
The sergeant's knife was pressed tightly against Lang Zhong's neck, and he said viciously: "Let your mother's fart, do you think Lao Tzu is a three-year-old child?
Lang Zhong said to the sergeant: "The military master's subordinates are merciful, and listen to the little words. ”
The sergeant yelled, "Speak quickly if you have anything to say." ”
Lang Zhong told the sergeant that he tricked Cunyi into going to Heiyun Mountain for two purposes, one was that if he went to collect medicine, the cliff wall of Heiyun Mountain would be slippery, and if he didn't do well, he would fall to death. Even if he could get away with it, the spirit snake grass let Li Quanfa take it, and kept it so that he died of poison three days later.
The sergeant snorted when he heard this, and he said to Lang Zhong: "Keep your words, go back and follow me to see the Chinese army, and you can explain to him in person." ”
After he finished speaking, he grabbed Lang Zhong by the collar and took him away.
Li Quanfa took the decoction, and the next day he had woken up, and he saw Cunyi standing in front of him, his eyes were slightly blue, and he knew that he had not rested well.
Li Quanfa also expected to be poisoned, but when he saw that he was so haggard and languishing, he knew that he was spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
Cunyi saw Li Quanfa wake up, turned around and brought him a bowl of water, Li Quanfa took the water bowl and said to Cunyi: "Brother, thank you very much, I don't know what to say to you." ”
Cunyi smiled and told Li Quanfa that walking the rivers and lakes is all based on a righteous word, acquaintance is fate, and this thank you word does not have to be taken to heart.
Li Quanfa nodded, and thanked Yufeng on the side.
Yufeng told Li Quanfa that in order to find herbs for him, Cunyi went to the poisonous miasma of Heiyun Mountain alone, and almost fell to his death there.
When Li Quanfa heard this, he hurriedly asked Cunyi what was going on. Cunyi told Lang Zhong's words to Li Quanfa, the original local.
Then Yufeng raised his righteous arm and showed the wound to Li Quanfa.
Li Quanfa saw that Cunyi's arm was full of deep scratches, and the guilt in his heart deepened.
He told Cunyi that after he recovered from his injury, he must re-stage the martial arts arena and win the championship in one fell swoop. Yufeng saw that his utilitarian heart was very heavy, and she despised him very much in her heart, she was angry, and said to Li Quanfa: "You still want to participate in the martial arts competition? ”
When she finished speaking, she lifted the door and left. Li Quanfa stared at a pair of big eyes, looking very incomprehensible.
Cunyi smiled and said to Li Quanfa: "Brother Li, please don't be surprised, Feng'er is straightforward and fast-talking, if she has something wrong with her words, I will apologize to you on her behalf." ”
Li Quanfa squeezed out a sentence from his mouth and said to Cunyi: "Where does my brother say, how can I be angry with Miss Feng." ”
Cunyi smiled when he heard this, and said to Li Quanfa: "Brother Li, you just have a good rest, anyway, even if there is a competition today, I will not arrange for you to play." ”
Li Quanfa nodded, and Cunyi also got up and left.
The shopkeeper told him that Miss Feng was in front of the grocery stall opposite, and Cunyi came out of the inn and came to look for Yufeng.
Cunyi said to her, "Feng'er, how can you speak like this to Brother Li?"
Yufeng said: "Look at him like that, intoxicated with fame and fortune. You almost fell to his death for him, or did he go to the tournament to provoke him?"
Cunyi shook his head and said: "Feng'er, everyone has their own ambitions, we can't all let people learn to be idle clouds and wild cranes like us." ”
Yufeng told Cunyi that she hated Li Quanfa. Cunyi said with a smile, he can go to the competition tomorrow, so that we can leave with peace of mind.
Yufeng nodded happily, and Cunyi saw that she was very fond of the small things here, so he bought a few to make her happy. The two of them bought their things and wandered around again.
