After Zhuri saw the forage, he was very happy and said with a smile: "This is called miasma-relieving grass. It likes to grow in dark places and has miraculous effects on treating the symptoms of miasma poisoning." Yu Yi nodded and motioned to the Shu soldiers around him to pick it up.
, the Shu soldiers followed the order and walked to the miasma-relieving grass, took out their sickles and prepared to cut it, when suddenly there was a sound of silk threads in the grass.
After Zhuri entered the Nanman secret cave, her various senses were greatly amplified. She realized the danger earlier than Yuyi, and quickly reminded: "Be careful, there are poisonous snakes in the grass!"
When the Shu soldier heard that there was a snake, he quickly retreated back. Unfortunately, the snake had already jumped out of the grass and was about to bite the Shu soldier's neck.
After being reminded day by day, Yu Yi was always on alert. When the snake jumped up to attack, he basically locked the direction of the snake. He started with a flying knife. When the Shu soldiers saw the poisonous snake attacking, their eyes were full of fear. Fortunately, the snake was about to attack.
Before coming into contact with Shu soldiers, his body was cut off by flying knives, and Shekou fell from the air.
Zhuri stepped forward and pulled the Shu soldiers back, pointing to the miasma-removing grass in his arms and said: "These are enough. The miasma-removing grass is usually protected by spiritual beings. Let's return quickly."
Soon the two returned to the main army, and cut the miasma-relieving grass very finely with a knife every day, and let the soldiers with vomiting symptoms swallow it raw. The medicine took effect quickly and the symptoms disappeared. The soldiers knelt down and kowtowed in thanks.
Yu Yi sat aside and couldn't be happy at all. You must know that the tombs in the Central Plains are full of powerful mechanisms, and the secret caves of the Southern Barbarians are filled with all kinds of poisons, which are really difficult to guard against.
Seeing that Yuyi was unhappy, Zhuri went up to ask the reason. Yuyi expressed his worries and said: "I don't know how many dangers there will be in the future. I just entered the secret cave and encountered two difficulties, which is really a headache!
"
Zhuri comforted him: "So we must use courage to conquer the secret caves of the Southern Barbarians!"
So the large team continued walking along the passage, passing through an area of miasma-removing grass. Yu Yi reminded everyone: "Everyone, be careful where you step, poisonous snakes are infested here!"
So the soldiers stared at their feet carefully. Occasionally, some soldiers saw the poisonous snake in advance and killed it directly with their weapons. When they were halfway through the Miasma Relief Grass area, they suddenly heard the sound of drums.
Yu Yi quickly ordered everyone to stop and be alert to the things around them, fearing that there would be new changes.
After Zhuri heard the sound of the drum, he shouted, "This is an order from the ancient Nanman army to attack."
Yu Yi was about to give the order to retreat, when suddenly there was a lot of dust and a lot of movement in front of him. It seemed that many soldiers and horses were coming. When he saw it clearly, he found a group of black snakes about the same size as humans. They spit out red snakes and contracted their bodies back and forth.
, they seemed to be very excited when they saw Yuyi and the others. They did not attack immediately, but were walking around in small groups, as if they were carrying out some kind of meaning.
At this moment, Yu Yi's scalp was already numb. Fortunately, Black Snake didn't understand soldiers and horses, and could only attack in one direction. If it was surrounded on all sides, it would be really bad.
Naturally, everyone had no intention of admiring the Black Snake's ceremony, so they turned around and ran quickly.
This behavior made the black snake very angry. They chased them like flying, spraying venom while chasing. When Yuyi looked back, the black snake sprayed green liquid from its mouth. Those liquids were very corrosive and dropped on the solution.
On the miasma grass, green smoke soon arose in that area, and the miasma-resolving grass completely disappeared.
Unfortunately, a Shu soldier was sprayed with venom because he reacted too slowly. There was only a small drop on his hand. Soon, his skin was slowly rotting at a speed visible to the naked eye, followed by white bones, and then the entire body disappeared.
The whole process was frightening as it lasted, and the air was filled with the heart-rending roar of the Shu soldier.
I don’t know how long they ran, and where they arrived, they felt that they were far away from the black snake. Everyone finally stopped and panted heavily.
In view of this situation, Yuyi finally realized the danger of the matter and quickly summoned no one for discussion.
Zhuri explained: "The ancestors of the Southern Barbarians, especially the Southern Barbarian witches, can communicate with the poisonous beasts and have the ability to lead them. When the war starts, the drums sound, and the trained beasts are first sent to fight as the vanguard, sometimes without even a single soldier.
Then you can capture a city."
After hearing this, Yu Yi remembered the Mulu King that Kong Ming directly talked about. He was teaching the leopards to attack as the vanguard. Compared with those black snakes, they were really childish.
Yu Yi glanced around and found that under the fighting spirit of the soldiers, some soldiers were so frightened that they peed their pants. Knowing that the Nanman secret cave would not be able to proceed if they were not united, he said to everyone: "Now the danger of the Nanman secret cave is over.
It's beyond my knowledge. Even though I am His Majesty of Xishu, I can't force you. If you are willing to stay, I will definitely give him an official title after I return to Xishu. I can understand if you want to leave.
Choose yourself.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Some Shu soldiers could no longer hold back their emotions and began to cry loudly. Finally, two Shu soldiers and a barbarian soldier asked to leave.
Yu Yi said to the remaining people: "Since everyone has chosen to stay, they are real warriors. I hope everyone will obey the command. I believe that through our efforts, we will be able to conquer this place."
So everyone looked at the three soldiers who were leaving, sent them away, and began to think about ways to avoid the black snake and enter the secret cave.
At this moment, the drums suddenly sounded again, and the Black Snake troops appeared again. Yuyi and the others were at a three-way intersection. This time, the Black Snakes came from two directions.
Yu Yi cursed angrily: "The Black Snake came all the way before and failed to catch up with us. Now it has locked our position and actually added another way. It is trying to encircle and suppress us."
Wang Can had a helpless expression on his face and asked: "Your Majesty, what should we do? Are we really going to die here?"
Zhong Ke suggested: "Isn't there still a road without black snakes? Let's go to that road to escape first!"
Dong Cha Na shook his head after hearing this and said: "If you want to escape, you must escape outside. What if you run inside and encounter more black snakes?"
The two Shu soldiers and a barbarian soldier who chose to leave at this time did not go far. When they encountered the black snake again, they were so frightened that they just fled towards the exit.
This action angered the black snakes, and a large number of black snakes chased after them, leaving only a small number of black snakes to surround Yu Yi and the others.
Yu Yi sighed and said: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. If you run towards the exit now, you will die. If you go in, you may encounter a black snake and you will die. It's better to go in. At least you are not a deserter!" After Yu Yi said this,
He took the lead and walked deep into the secret cave of Nanman, and everyone followed him.
Poor the three soldiers who chose to leave, they were quickly surrounded by black snakes and torn into pieces, without even a chance to cry out in pain.
On the other side, Yuyi rushed in front, and everyone followed behind, walking very fast. The road was in good condition, the ground was not so wet, and the black snake walked much slower.
In this way, everyone came to an open area, and a statue was erected in front.
