Confiscated my property and exiled me, I emptied the emperor's old nest to escape famine

Qi Lanfu and others are still preparing.

But Ye Fei was thinking about a way out.

She didn't want to take risks with people like Qi Lanfu.

While Ye Fei was thinking, someone from Qi Lan's wealthy merchant team suddenly screamed:

"It's so itchy, do you feel itchy?"

"What are these?"

"Is this... an ant?"

After the people in the caravan screamed, they carefully observed the bugs on their bodies and asked uncertainly.

Of course, his voice immediately attracted the attention of others in the caravan.

Then everyone found that their bodies were covered with insects without them noticing.

These insects can easily move onto people's bodies without being detected under the cover of vegetation such as mountain grass and trees.

When they are discovered, their reaction will be the same as the people in the caravan are doing now.

"Fei'er, are you okay?"

"You don't have these bugs crawling on you, do you?"

After Ye Qingyun heard the shouts of the people in the caravan, the first thing he did was to check on Lin Xue'e, Ye Fei and Ye Ling.

After discovering that they did not have these things on them, Ye Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at himself.

"What are these?"

“It’s not really an ant, is it?”

"I've never seen ants like these."

"Although ants can bite people, the reaction after being bitten should not be as strong as theirs."

Ye Qingyun looked at the reactions of the people in the caravan and whispered to Ye Fei and Lin Xue'e in some confusion.

Ye Fei had long ago observed the so-called ants in the caravan's mouths.

To be honest, this is indeed different from the ants she knew.

No wonder Ye Qingyun still can't believe it.

"It doesn't matter if it's an ant or not, just don't let it land on us."

"Don't just look at them, pay more attention to yourself as well."

"These things are so small that they might get stuck on you accidentally."

Lin Xue'e patted Ye Qingyun and spoke in a reproachful tone.

Ever since the so-called ants appeared, Lin Xue'e has never dared to take it lightly.

From time to time, she would check to see if any of her family members had anything on them that shouldn't have fallen on them.

Ye Qingyun chuckled a few times and did not refute Lin Xue'e's words.

They were keeping a certain distance from the caravan members.

This is Ye Fei's usual style.

She never gets too close to Qi Lanfu and others.

Even though he stopped now, Ye Fei chose a place with clean, spacious surroundings and good views.

The people of Qilanfu felt itchy after being stung by the so-called ants, but had no other symptoms.

So, after cursing for a while, they started to devote themselves to the plan of crossing the bamboo forest again.

In the end, Ye Fei discovered that Qi Lanfu used the most primitive and simple method to select personnel.

That is: drawing lots.

"Da Fu, Wang Dong, Shui Sheng, Ping An."

"You guys go explore the bamboo forest first."

Qi Lanfu looked at the four people who were chosen and gave them serious instructions.

The four people who were selected did not hesitate, and went straight into the bamboo forest ahead with rations and water.

Ye Fei thought that this should be the tacit understanding formed by the caravan members' long-term cooperation.

After the four members of the caravan entered the bamboo forest, the scene was quiet again for a moment.

Everyone is waiting for news.

Qi Lanfu came to Ye Qingyun and spoke with a hint of comfort: "Brother Qingyun, you don't have to worry too much."

"Although we can't give a 100% guarantee, we do have some experience in the martial arts world."

"Even if we really can't get through the bamboo forest, we can just take a detour."

"Although taking a detour is dangerous, it is still a way out."

Ye Qingyun didn't know much about survival in the wild, and he couldn't provide much useful advice.

Therefore, he could only smile at Qi Lanfu's words.

A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, three quarters of an hour...

Half an hour later.

The four members of the caravan that entered the bamboo forest have not returned yet.

But the physical condition of the other members of the caravan had begun to show signs of trouble.

Many people began to have high fever and even fainted.

This sudden change really gave people a shock.

Qi Lanfu immediately went over to check on his companions: "What's going on? Wake up."

"What did they just do?"

Qi Lanfu asked other people who could still communicate normally.

The other members of the caravan looked confused and shook their heads anxiously: "I don't know, they didn't do anything."

"They just stayed with us and talked."

"But as they were talking, they suddenly became like this."

Qi Lanfu frowned and looked very unhappy.

One of my companions said uncertainly: "Could their behavior be related to the ant bites they received earlier?"

"We eat and drink the same things, but we were not bitten by ants just now, and they were bitten by ants."

"Now that the time has come, their illness has flared up?"

Qi Lanfu thought about it and felt that this was a possibility.

But even if he knew, Qi Lanfu was helpless.

Because he didn't know how to deal with it.

Although they are away from home all year round, Qi Lanfu and others always carry some medicinal herbs with them.

But those medicinal herbs are only used to treat some commonly occurring diseases.

Qi Lanfu is not even sure whether the person who just bitten was an ant, so how can he treat his companion?

Ye Fei winked at Ye Qingyun.

Ye Qingyun immediately said, "Brother Qi, I think we should go out and find some herbs to help."

"Although we are not sure whether it is ants, it is a fact that they have a high fever now."

"This is a big mountain, so we can always find some useful herbs."

"Anyway, let's get their fever down first."

Qi Lanfu finally woke up from his dream: "Yes, yes, you are right."

"But we have medicine to reduce the fever."

Qi Lanfu said this and immediately gave the medicine he brought with him to those who had high fever and were unconscious.

After doing all this, Qi Lanfu looked at Ye Qingyun and thanked him: "Brother Qingyun, thank you for your kindness."

Ye Qingyun waved his hand: "We are all family, there is no need to thank or not."

"But even though you have fever-reducing medicine, we should still look for other herbs."

"There are so many insects and ants here, maybe there are useful herbs nearby."

After Ye Qingyun finished speaking, without waiting for Qi Lanfu to react, he took Ye Fei and the others away.

The other people in the caravan thought that what Ye Qingyun said made sense.

Therefore, a few more people got up to look for herbs.

After walking for a while, Ye Qingyun found that there was no one else around, so he approached Ye Fei and asked in a low voice:

"Feier, are we leaving the caravan?"

"If so, we have to take some food with us."

"Otherwise it would be a big loss..."

Ye Fei looked at Ye Qingyun with a pure face: "Why do you want to leave?"

"We are here to look for herbs."

Ye Qingyun looked unconvinced.

Ye Fei explained seriously: "I'm serious."

"If we really leave, we must take food with us."

"Now we don't have anything with us, how can we just leave like this?"

"I said I came out to look for herbs, and that's what I meant."

Ye Qingyun: ...

He looked at Ye Fei several times, but he just didn't believe it.
