After thinking for a while, he continued: "By the way, the path at the gathering place that we often walk on is no longer usable. There is a branch-like forbidden creature on the road, which is quite dangerous. Li Yang died in the hands of that thing."
Zhang Rouzhu opened his mouth, and after a while, a sigh sounded in the room.
"Yeah."
The relationship between their brother and sister was pretty good with Li Yang, they lived not too far away, and they kept in touch with each other on weekdays. Although she had long been accustomed to the fact that people died every now and then, she still couldn't suppress the sadness in her heart.
"Anyway, you must pay attention when you go out in the future. I am going to see if other people are there and tell them the news as soon as possible." Zhang Tao reminded again.
"Okay, please pay attention to your safety."
Zhang Tao put down the stone and cotton clothes, said hello to Bai Mo again, and then left in a hurry.
Bai Mo and Zhang Rouzhu were the only two people left in the kitchen.
"You haven't fully recovered yet, right? Go inside and rest. I'll cook right away."
It was Zhang Rouzhu who broke the silence first.
She had already learned about Bai Mo's unusualness from Zhang Tao, but like Zhang Tao, she had no intention of asking about the other person's identity.
"What are you going to do, energy bars and rice?"
Bai Mo couldn't help but ask when he saw that she was forcefully breaking open the long object in her hand.
"Well... now we really only have energy bars as the staple food at home. The taste is indeed not good, don't mind..."
Zhang Rouzhu was a little embarrassed and said comfortingly, "But don't worry, it won't be long before the gates of Wuji City are opened. We can go get the rice. Just hold on for a while."
"I don't mind the taste."
Bai Mo found a place to wash his hands, then walked towards her, took the energy bar from her hand, broke the energy bar into fine pieces without much effort, and put it into the bowl.
The two of them were silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
After a while, Bai Mo suddenly looked at the strange plants on the ground and said, "Most of these things are poisonous, but the vine as thick as an arm is good and can be eaten."
Zhang Rouzhu stared at the brightly colored vine with wide eyes, and said with disbelief: "Are you sure? This thing has thorns. I was stung, and the wound is still numb to this day."
Bai Mo raised his eyebrows: "Let me see the wound."
The girl glanced at him, but without being shy, she directly lifted up her sleeves, revealing her snow-white forearms.
I saw a small red hole on her forearm, surrounded by purple patches, which seemed to be bruises, and looked quite scary.
Seeing this evening, Zhang Rouzhu's expression suddenly changed, because it was clearly not that serious before, just a little itchy, so she didn't take it seriously.
She started to panic, and the more she looked, the more frightened she became. She couldn't help but ask, "What should I do? Am I poisoned?"
"It's true that you were poisoned, but you'll be fine if you eat the vines."
Bai Mo said, "This thing is called a hand vine. Its thorns are indeed poisonous. They are not harmful. They just make people weak. They will soften when exposed to high temperatures and can be detoxified after being eaten."
"Hand vines?" Zhang Rouzhu asked suspiciously: "Are you telling the truth? Why do I feel that you are telling nonsense, as if you are trying to trick me into eating this thing..."
"Then look at the root of the vine, does it look like the shape of a palm?"
"I haven't dug out the roots, where can I look?" Zhang Rouzhu said angrily.
"Then there's nothing we can do about it. Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Bai Mo shrugged, "This thing tastes very good, and you can recall whether the quantity of this thing is relatively rare?"
Zhang Rouzhu was stunned and thought about it carefully. It seemed that it was indeed the case. She wandered around outside and saw a lot of other plants, but it seemed that she only found this one vine——
Isn't this thing more precious?
"That's right."
Bai Mo seemed to see her thoughts and said, "According to your understanding, the hand vine should be considered a rare treasure. Its stinging toxin will make the body of living creatures become weaker and weaker, but eating it will make the body weaker."
It can strengthen your body.”
"Exotic treasure?" Zhang Rouzhu's eyes lit up, "Isn't it possible to sell it for money?"
Bai Mo didn't expect that the other party would suddenly think of selling for money, and asked: "Oh? Who are you going to sell to?"
"Our buffer zone will hold a market every month. There will be many people trading at that time. We buy our charms and energy bars there. We can also sell things tomorrow - if
This vine is really a rare thing."
At the end of the sentence, Zhang Rouzhu's tone was a little uncertain.
"But this thing is colorful and pretty, and it's almost poisonous. People may not believe it if it says it can strengthen the body."
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Bai Mo didn't explain much and asked, "How long has it been since you were stabbed?"
"One hour, what's wrong?" Zhang Rou didn't know why.
"In two hours at most, you won't be able to move your left hand. If you don't believe it, you can wait and see if I'm right."
"good."
Although Zhang Rouzhu knew that the other party might not be lying, he still said a little unconvinced.
Two hours passed quickly.
As soon as Zhang Tao got home, he smelled a fragrance that he had never smelled before from the kitchen.
However, when he entered the house, he found that it was Bai Mo who was cooking, skillfully cooking a colorful vine, and he was stunned.
And the reason why Zhang Rouzhu was not the one cooking was because one of her hands... could no longer move.
What Bai Mo said is true.
Before cooking, Bai Mo squeezed out the toxins from the hand vine, stored it in a small bottle, and gave it to Zhang Rouzhu.
In his words, as long as this thing is poured into water, even an extraordinary person will become weak after drinking it. It may be useful for self-defense in the future.
Of course, it can also become a traded commodity.
