It was Zhu Wu's turn, but he took the initiative to open his mouth, but closed his eyes, with a tear falling from the corner of his eye.
Father, mother, and all the folks in the village, it’s him who is incompetent, it’s him who is useless, it’s him...
Um? How is this going
Zhu Wu had just lost all hope, so he swallowed it directly into his stomach without even chewing.
But when the "poison" fell into his stomach, instead of feeling any unbearable pain, he felt a cool air gradually spread throughout his body.
He didn't know if it was his imagination, but he felt that his waist was no longer sore, his legs were no longer painful, and even the places where he had been accidentally bitten by poisonous insects no longer felt burning pain.
His eyes widened in disbelief, so selling medicine is not poison at all, but an antidote
At this point he was even more confused.
A pair of eyes looked at Yuan Bao and the others with confusion and wariness.
Then he saw that the other party was pulling out all his friends like a carrot.
Suddenly, his mind became clear.
What a hero!
This is their hero among the fire and water!
"Heroes, thank you for your help. But this place is too dangerous, so you should leave first!"
Zhu Wu clasped his fists and thanked several people.
He couldn't say any more words. In short, if the other party could help them in times of crisis no matter what their purpose was, then they would be a benefactor to them.
Yuan Bao glanced at him and asked in a low voice: "How many of you are there outside?"
Zhu Wu wiped his face, glanced over it briefly and shook his head, "Everyone is here. We still have some companions who got separated here before."
Although I don’t know whether they are dead or alive, at least there is a way to survive, right
Yuan Bao nodded and made a retreat gesture to his men.
The plan they had discussed with Lin Mengya before was to evacuate as soon as they rescued the people.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, an extremely unpleasant burnt smell suddenly drifted into the forest.
Yuan Bao and Zhu Wu both changed their expressions.
"What the hell! Who is so bold as to set a fire here? Let's leave quickly!"
Yuan Bao grabbed a few herb collectors nearby and flew out in the direction they came from.
Others are also unambiguous, pulling whatever they can, and pulling whatever they can.
Two of them were seriously injured, and they were carried on their backs by people from the Shenji Battalion and ran away.
Zhu Wu was in relatively good physical condition, but he couldn't help but look back frequently.
"Why don't you leave quickly? What are you looking at? Are you waiting for the fire to come over and turn you into a roasted pig?" Yuan Bao didn't look at the person, but he still had eyes and ears in all directions.
Seeing Zhu Wu like this, he couldn't help but yelled.
Zhu Wu frowned and explained: "There are too many poisons around here. I'm just afraid that the fire will irritate all these poisons."
These poisons are extremely toxic due to long-term consumption of poisonous weeds such as snakebite.
Even the herb collectors like them, who rely on the mountains to make a living, no one wants to go near this area during normal times, for fear of being accidentally injured.
Despite this, we still get stung a few times each year.
If it is not treated in time, it may be life-threatening.
So they all stayed away from these poisonous things. Now someone actually set a fire on the poisonous things' territory openly, fearing that these poisonous things would go crazy.
Hearing this, Yuan Bao also had a look on his face, "What should we do?"
He looked around again and found the direction of the billowing smoke.
But there is still a long way to go.
And the most important thing is that in this mountain and forest environment, they feel that there is no way for a few of them to put out the fire.
"There's nothing I can do." Zhu Wu said helplessly.
"Then what are you worrying about?" Yuan Bao raised his eyebrows and accelerated his speed again.
"Anyway, as long as this thing doesn't bother us, what do you care about other people?"
With that said, Yuan Bao rushed out of the forest at the lead.
Zhu Wu just looked at the distance with concern, but in the end he could only sigh helplessly.
This kind of thing is self-inflicted.
They'd better ask for their own blessings!
... ...
Forty minutes had passed, and Lin Mengya was pacing anxiously back and forth outside the forest.
Every five minutes she had to ask Xiao Yao to tell the time.
Fortunately, Yuan Bao was quite careful in his work. He sent someone over to tell her ten minutes ago and had already found a way to spread the news.
Next, all they have left is how to bring people out safely.
Lin Mengya waited a little anxiously.
After about five minutes, she felt that the poisonous insects around her seemed to be getting a little anxious.
The specific manifestation is that they began to have strong attack intentions.
But because Lin Mengya's insect repellent was too overbearing, they did not come close to her range.
It's just that the intention to devour each other and attack each other is more obvious.
Even from her perspective, she could clearly see the poisonous creatures rolling and tangled together.
The sight of colorful and tangled poisonous creatures fighting each other is really not a beautiful sight.
Even the young man felt numb at the sight, and quietly hid behind Lin Mengya, carrying his younger brother on his back.
He could clearly see that the poisonous insects around him did not dare to take a step closer to the little brother.
And for some reason, he had a vague illusion that it was safest to follow this little brother.
Others also noticed, and their faces changed to varying degrees.
"Linzi, why did this insect go crazy all of a sudden?" Someone quietly approached her and asked.
Lin Mengya shook her head, "I don't know either."
But she actually had a guess.
In fact, this kind of poisonous insect is no longer an ordinary poison to a certain extent.
She had felt that it was too cruel for these things to compete for food.
If she hadn't confirmed that this place was really created by the natural environment, she would really have thought that this was someone's Gu training ground.
Although she is not good at voodoo, as long as it is poison, she has dabbled in it under the guidance of her teacher.
What's more, it is also recorded in the Qingzheng genealogy. The most important thing is that she has a herding Gu beast.
Her herding Gu beast was born to be the nemesis of all kinds of Gu insects.
If it is used to control Gu insects, it can have the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
And in order to better tame the herding Gu beast, she also put in a lot of effort.
But the focus was all on the Gu beasts, and I just read some records about Gu.
Although most poisons are cultivated artificially, some poisons are created naturally.
This also determines that they are wild, difficult to train, and extremely ferocious.
In records, these poisons are called "wild poisonous insects".
only
The chance of this kind of wild Gu succeeding is really very small, and Snake Yan happens to have such unique conditions.
According to what the herbal collectors say, every year before the snake's stomach matures, the poisons will gather together until the snake's stomach matures.
But in fact, they did not encounter a large amount of poison every time they collected mature snakeheads.
This in itself is an oddity.
For such a huge poison, even if it fights to the end, it will still have an extremely considerable number.
That means that the final mature snake will be swallowed by these poisonous creatures, or it will be protected by them.
For ordinary people, let alone collecting medicine, even getting close would be life-threatening.
But where did those poisons go
Lin Mengya didn't have time to think about this problem before she heard the movement in the forest.
"Someone is coming out! Quick, get ready to respond!"
No one else had heard it yet, but no one doubted her words.
Everyone tightened their weapons.
Once the people who come out are not Yuan Bao and the others, they will rush in to save people.
Fortunately, Yuan Bao and the others successfully rescued all the hostages.
The guide and the boy cried as soon as they saw their companions.
They rushed over and hugged their relatives tightly.
"Uncle Wu, it's great that you finally came out!"
The young man hugged Zhu Wu and cried and laughed. Finally, he threw himself into Zhu Wu's arms and burst into tears.
Zhu Wu touched his little head, and then saw the little guy sitting in the basket.
The little guy was obviously very happy, and he just extended his hand to him, but couldn't understand a word.
Zhu Wu felt something was wrong, patted the head of the boy in his arms and asked, "What's wrong with your brother?"
"My brother got lost before. By the way, it was Brother Lin who helped me find him!"
"Brother Lin?" Zhu Wu looked at the people outside in confusion.
In the end, he was dragged to a young man's side.
"He is Brother Lin!"
The young man looked at Lin Mengya gratefully, "Brother Lin, he is my Uncle Wu, the most powerful herb collector in our village!"
Zhu Wu looked at the thin young man in front of him, and his heart was filled with gratitude.
"Thank you hero for saving this child." He didn't know that Lin Mengya was the biggest contributor to their rescue this time.
And now is not the time to talk about this.
Lin Mengya looked at Zhu Wu and asked solemnly: "What happened inside? Why did those poisonous creatures suddenly riot?"
When Zhu Wu saw this, he immediately told her that there was a fire inside.
"Come on!" As soon as Lin Mengya heard this, she immediately knew that someone must have set the fire deliberately.
"It seems we can't stay here anymore. You should go down the mountain immediately and leave with your companions. Remember, you must bring insect repellent herbs along the way. Don't take it lightly."
Zhu Wu was stunned, but seeing that the young man in front of him was speaking so seriously, he did not dare to hesitate. He just waved to his companions and left immediately.
It was Yuan Bao who saw the abnormality in Lin Mengya's attitude.
"What's going on?" He grabbed Lin Mengya and asked in a low voice.
"Some people think they are smart, but they are seeking their own death!"
She frowned.
These poisons are already aroused to be ferocious, and now coupled with the fire, they will definitely go crazy.
With the poison of Gu nature, it is no longer an ordinary poison.
