The other side of Menghu Mountain is different from the side of Taohua Village. The temperature is relatively good, the texture is moist, and wild flowers and grasses are flourishing, which is suitable for many small animals to survive.
The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and Jiang Shi was asleep. Hu Luanfei did not intend to take him into the mountain, so he left a note and some food, took a grass hook and went alone.
The lush primeval forest sparkles against the backdrop of the morning sun and the dust.
Unlike Taohua Village, although the scenery here is beautiful, few people visit it.
Just at the foot of the mountain, where wild grass grew thickly, many wetland insects made contact with the Hu Luanfei and then continued to nibble on their fresh breakfast.
Hu Luanfei took out the atlas and used a grass hook to clear a path little by little according to the shapes of the plants on the pages.
This plant generally grows in deep mountains, in relatively dark and humid places. When combined with the plant that Jiang Shi ate not long ago, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
The further inland you go, the less sunlight can penetrate, the colder the air becomes, and the more harmful organisms there are on the ground.
Hu Luanfei exchanged some realgar, insect repellent, and other equipment for entering the mountain in the space. After he was fully prepared, he dared to go deep into the mountain.
The view became increasingly darker, and the atmosphere became increasingly eerie.
After what happened with the tiger and the wolf last time, I was much more cautious this time and tried to tread lightly.
"Hiss!" My hand was cut by the weeds, fortunately it was not deep.
Hu Luanfei continued walking forward with his finger in his mouth, and came to the forest that looked strange before.
Because of the lack of light, I always felt that the scenery around me changed with every step I took. But when I looked back, I didn't notice anything unusual.
She had to comfort herself that she was overthinking.
Fortunately, Menghu Mountain is rich in resources, and there is an 80% chance of finding what you want.
What a blessing.
Before she could be happy for long, the smell of blood in the air made her frown.
anyone?
She stood up and looked around warily, everything was hazy.
She suddenly remembered something.
When you are at the foot of the mountain, you can see a lot of wild animals, but the further you go in, the fewer wild animals there are.
There are only two reasons that can be thought of: one is that there are large ferocious beasts in the deep mountains, and the other is that there is miasma.
However, he could still stand, which meant that the miasma did not exist. It was just that the air was bad and the earthy smell was very strong.
Hu Luanfei moved the useful herbs into the space and prepared to return the same way.
As soon as he took a step, he stepped on something and was quickly entangled by it.
Lower your head and pull up your skirt.
Suddenly, he was frightened by the thing in front of him and his face turned pale.
She never thought that one day, Hu Luanfei would step on a snake.
What to do, what to do?
Does this snake bite hurt? Is it poisonous?
"Don't move!" Suddenly, a voice neither loud nor soft was heard nearby.
Hu Luanfei looked up suddenly, and an arrow flew past his ear.
The same experience happened to her last year when Qi Siriao rescued her.
It’s sad to think about it.
The person in front of me shouldn’t be a bad person.
The man came over and killed the snake with a dagger. He urged: "Get out of here quickly."
Hu Luanfei watched the man walking so fast, confused and subconsciously wanted to put his injured finger in his mouth.
With her sharp eyes, she discovered that there was something small and black on her finger.
The man urged from not far ahead: "Come out quickly!"
"Ah? Oh!"
Although he didn't know what he was thinking, seeing that he didn't do anything to him and still saved him, Hu Luanfei listened to the advice and walked out.
After walking for a while, my vision gradually became clearer, and I could see clearly that the man in front of me was wearing a coarse linen shirt. Although he was thin, he had plenty of muscles. He also looked quite steady, so he shouldn't be a bad guy.
But how was he here? And how did he know she was in there?
The man suddenly stopped and turned around.
Hu Luanfei took a step back vigilantly, holding the grass hook in a defensive posture.
In response, the man was not angry, but handed over a small bottle and said, "You need to apply medicine."
"?" Hu Luanfei responded: "I'm not injured."
The man lowered his eyelids, hiding some of his emotions, "You are covered in wounds. If you don't apply medicine, you will be buried soon."
Hu Luanfei thought he was so funny. He didn't even know if she was injured? Even though her hand was cut just now, she wasn't covered in wounds... "Ahhhh! What is this?!"
There was a moving creature on the wounded fingertips. Not only on the fingertips, but also on the back of the hands, arms, back of the neck and even on the face, anyway, all the skin exposed to the outside.
The man explained seriously: "It's a mountain leech that sucks human blood."
"..."
Hu Luanfei has always been afraid of soft-bodied creatures, especially leeches and slugs, one is fatal, and the other is disgusting.
At this moment, she could no longer bear the blow of reality, her eyes turned black, and she fainted.
"Hey! Cheer up..."
-
It seemed as if the voices of others calling out were getting farther and farther away.
When Hu Luanfei woke up, the sun had already passed halfway over the mountains.
"Mother, you're awake."
"Jiang Shi?" Hu Luanfei was confused at the moment, "Why are you here?"
His eyes were not idle either, looking back and forth at Jiang Shi. He looked much better.
"Thanks to the Queen, I was able to cure the poison."
"Didn't you say there was something stuck in your head?"
"Brother Li said it was a hallucination caused by poisoning."
"Who is that?" Hu Luanfei had just woken up and had no idea what happened after he fainted.
Jiang Shi explained everything in detail, and then we realized that the "Brother Li" he was talking about was the old woman's son.
When they first arrived at the foot of the mountain, someone on the mountain noticed them.
It was just that they were reluctant to come out and say hello because they didn't know his identity. It was not until Hu Luanfei went into the mountains alone and bravely ventured into the wetlands that people began to take notice.
Come to think of it, she remembered that before she fainted, her body was covered with leeches.
Hu Luanfei was shocked and his face turned pale.
I looked at my hands and touched my face, and only felt relieved when I found that there were no horrible leeches.
But, the clothes have changed!
Jiang Shi noticed her panic and said, "It was Sister Li who helped me change it."
Hu Luanfei exhaled lightly, "I was scared to death."
"I'm sorry." Jiang Shi knelt in front of her. "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gone into the mountain, and you wouldn't have been bitten by that scary thing."
Jiang Shi was rarely so mature, and Hu Luanfei was unable to respond to his sudden apology for a while.
"My lady, I cannot repay your kindness in this life..."
"Stop!" Hu Luanfei knew what was going to happen next: "I don't need you to pledge yourself to me, nor do I need you to work like a slave to repay me. I just hope that everything goes well for you and that you live for yourself."
Jiang Shiben was not an emotional person, and he was also young and had not experienced much, so once someone cared about him, he would immediately risk his life for her.
"You just said that you were hallucinating because of the poison?"
Jiang Shi nodded: "Brother Li said that my symptoms are exactly the same as Sister Li's."
"Eh? Is it possible that hallucinations are prevalent in that village?"
