Shao Xuan didn't expect the old man to change his tone of command. He was probably used to it on weekdays, and he couldn't change it for a while. It was rare to say the word "help".
Seeing the old man so excited, Shao Xuan looked in the direction he pointed.
It is another grass on the long mountain wall, but this grass looks very ordinary and has no patterns. Compared with the grass at Shao Xuan's feet, the leaves are slightly narrower and longer.
"What kind of grass is that, and what's the use?" Shao Xuan asked.
"do not know."
Shao Xuan: "...I don't know why you are so excited?"
"I'm excited because I don't know! I've never seen that kind of grass before." The old man stared straight at the mountain wall and urged Shao Xuan: "Hurry up!"
Shao Xuan shook his head, not following the old man's knowledge. However, picking grass on the mountain wall was only a matter for Shao Xuan for a while. As before, Shao Xuan dug down the grass with the old man's knife and threw it to the old man.
Except for some medicinal herbs that were often used in the tribe and those plants that were recorded, there are many other plants that Shao Xuan did not know. What's special, I want to see how this old man treats it.
I saw the old man after careful observation and smell, cut off a leaf, bit the tip of the leaf, and tasted it carefully.
"Does it taste good?" Shao Xuan asked.
The old man shook his head, "No smell, very strange, not even grassy."
"What do you think?" Shao Xuan asked again.
"Thinking? There is a... bad feeling." The old man commented.
Feeling bad, do you still continue to eat
Shao Xuan saw that the old man ate a whole leaf, and then, the old man's face began to twitch, not the kind of suffering, but really uncontrollable convulsions, and his complexion also turned into a strange blue-gray.
poisonous!
"Spit it out!" Shao Xuan said quickly, looked around, broke off a branch, peeled off the skin outside, and planned to help the old man induce vomiting.
The old man whose complexion quickly turned blue-grey saw that Shao Xuan was holding a branch to stab his throat, knowing what he was going to do, he turned his head to avoid the outstretched branch, and stretched his arm to push towards Shao Xuan: "Ni beat Kai!"
Shao Xuan was stunned for a while before he realized that the old man was disgusting him for getting in the way and let himself go away.
OK, go away, go away. Shao Xuan thought to himself: It's not me who was poisoned, I'm in a hurry.
I thought that the old man would induce vomiting by himself, or take out some hidden herbs to detoxify, but the old man's performance surprised Shao Xuan.
The old man's face was blue and gray, and the folds on his face were further wrinkled because of the pain. The whole old face was crowded together, and it was very uncomfortable to see. After staggering two steps, the old man sat down against the mountain wall.
"Hey, Laoju, are you really okay? Don't take some detox?" Shao Xuan advised.
The old man didn't speak, he just waved his hand softly, sat there still, didn't speak, closed his eyes, if it wasn't for the slight ups and downs of his chest, at first glance, people would think that he had died.
His breath is getting weaker.
Shao Xuan stared at the old man, is this old man courting death
Eating things that you have never seen before, without throwing up, just holding back the poison, isn’t that killing it? Suspect long life
Suddenly, Shao Xuan found some black lines on the old man's body, like extended leaves, on his face, arms, and the parts outside his clothes, all of which appeared black lines.
Totem pattern
A fire appeared in Shao Xuan's mind. This fire was the source of the strength in the old man's body. However, the difference was that there was a vague shadow in the fire, like a grass or something, which could not be seen clearly. , surrounded by fire.
The blue and red flames are intertwined, not only does not appear to be weakening, but it has the momentum of burning more and more vigorously. The flames swelled and expanded, and the faint shadow in the fireball was like a weak seedling, rising and growing.
Looking at the lines on the old man's body, the original black lines gradually turned into bright green, and the gray on the old man's face also began to subside, and the dead aura was expelled, replaced by a very strong aura of life.
When the blue and gray on the old man's face disappeared completely, the green lines also faded, and everything became normal again. Just looking at the old man's current appearance, no one would have thought that the old man was almost poisoned to death by eating a piece of poisonous weed just now.
No wonder he had no fear, he pushed himself away with such force just now that he had the ability to save his life. Shao Xuan calmed down.
The old man let out a long sigh, opened his eyes, and took a closer look at the unremarkable grass in his hand that he had not put down, his eyes lit up.
Seeing the old man carefully put away the grass, Shao Xuancai asked, "Are you really all right?"
"It's okay, it's just a little poison." The old man said indifferently. In that calm tone, he really didn't take the seemingly dangerous situation just now to his heart.
This is the case with this old man. If it were someone else, he would have been poisoned to death.
"I've tasted more than 100 kinds of grass since I entered the mountain, and there are poisonous weeds. This one is not the most poisonous." The old man said casually.
Seeing the smugness that flashed in the old man's eyes, Shao Xuan wanted to praise him, but he held it back.
I thought that Shao Xuan would be amazed, but who would have waited and waited, when he looked up, the old man found that Shao Xuan lifted his foot and left. He didn't care about anything else, so he quickly chased after him. He also counted on Shao Xuan to help him pick grass. Before meeting Shao Xuan, he also saw a lot of unfamiliar grass, but he couldn't pick it, and he broke an arm, so he had to give up. It's different now. It's easy to have someone who helps pick the grass.
Because of the old man, Shao Xuan did not follow the shortest route. Sometimes he would go over the mountains to find some plants, but the general direction remained the same, but the distance was long.
Shao Xuan followed the old man to collect some poisons and wound medicines, and got to know a lot of plants. It is rare to meet someone to listen to him. When the old man is interested, he will also talk about the distribution of various herbs. He has traveled a lot and knows a lot.
From the old man's words, Shao Xuan not only learned about various medicinal plants, but also the distribution of some tribes and cities. In general, this trip was worth it.
The old man told Shao Xuan that he could judge what was going in that direction based on some flying insects, what kind of changes were happening to the plants there, and different insects had different preferences. If they were looking for something, it would save a lot of time.
"Of course, in addition to these flying bugs, you can also judge based on other beasts, such as..." The old man was about to point to a small bird and was about to say something, his ears twitched quickly, and the old man's eyes brightened In a flash, he didn't care about the bird anymore, looked at one place, and raised his hand to signal Shao Xuan not to make a sound.
Shao Xuan looked over there, and there was a cluster of low grass, which was the densest grass around.
And from the back of the grass, there is an animal with gray and white fur that looks like a mouse hiding behind it. After listening carefully to the movement around it, it sticks its head out, props up its front, sniffs the air, and then swoops. Jumped out.
"Quick, follow it!" The old man suppressed his excitement and urged Shao Xuan in a low voice.
