"Fortunately, this snake is not highly poisonous. If you really encounter a highly poisonous snake, it will be fatal."
As he spoke, Old Man He started looking for herbs in the nearby bushes.
Chu Hui said quickly: "I have some detoxifying Chinese medicine bags here. Boiling them in water and drinking them should have some effect."
Old Man He took the small medicine bag, opened it, looked at it carefully, and smelled it.
"Lobelia, wild chrysanthemum, gentian, processed arisaema, these are indeed good medicines for expelling wind and poison. Drink them for two or three days and you should be fine."
"But with her wound, I guess she won't be able to walk too far in the short term."
Professor Tang sighed: "There's nothing we can do about this."
"Let's find a place to camp nearby. We're all tired from walking these days, so it's a good time for everyone to take a break."
Soon, they found a flat lawn nearby and started to set up camp.
After settling down, the young man started a fire and cooked soup, while Old Man He went to collect some medicinal herbs for external injuries.
"Are there any hidden caves or something like that nearby?"
In the woods, Professor Tang looked gloomy and cruel, contrary to his usual kind face.
Old Man He also straightened his slightly hunched back and said, "No, we have searched all the caves within a ten-kilometer radius."
Professor Tang looked sharp: "Maybe there is something missing?"
"I have been hiding in this forest for many years. There is no hill nearby that I don't know well."
Old man He is very confident.
Professor Tang frowned and asked, "Could it be that someone has really come out of seclusion?"
No matter how capable Su Qiao is, it is impossible for her to carry a grown man on her back and walk such a long distance along the mountain road, right
Old Man He shook his head slightly: "It's hard to say."
"But I have another idea, maybe..."
"Maybe something?" After searching for so many days, Professor Tang was already extremely anxious.
Old Man He glanced at him and said, "Maybe they have already walked ahead of us."
“Not likely.”
"That dog's leg is broken. There's no way they can get ahead of us."
Professor Tang disagrees with this view.
"What if the girl is alone?"
After observing her along the way, Old Man He discovered that Miss Su was not a simple person.
She is much more difficult to deal with than a spoiled and willful girl like Gu Ling.
Especially after she drugged them all without making any noise and ran away in the middle of the night, he became even more wary of her.
He even had a ridiculous idea that the girl already knew their plan.
The fact that her blood might be used to open the stone door was something they hadn't told anyone except him and the professor.
"Agou is missing too. How do you explain this?" Professor Tang still didn't quite believe that Su Qiao would go forward alone.
Su Qiao was his student, and he knew her very well.
He has the ability, a calm personality, and is quite courageous, but he still lacks some scheming skills.
"You can hide the person first."
Old Man He reminded: "We haven't looked for the road ahead."
When they realized that the person was missing, the first thing they did was to go back.
"That's possible."
Professor Tang pondered for a moment and made a decision: "Then let's not look back, but look forward."
Old Man Su will not give up this opportunity.
Su Qiao will definitely go to that place.
Since he couldn't find her in the woods, he waited for her ahead.
"The girl named Gu Ling has a foot injury. She will probably be out for a few more days."
Old man He was very impatient to deal with a young lady like Gu Ling.
