Spring swamps the earth, spring is the season that brings vitality to all things, and it is also the season that brings hope to many people.
At this time of year, there are many medicinal herbs available for picking in Yunze Realm. For the indigenous people who make a living on this, it is not to be missed.
The medicinal materials picked in spring can be sold at a higher price. For Yin's family of three, the more they can harvest at this time, it will mean that the family can live a better life in the first half of the year.
Yin is not very old, but he has just turned sixteen, but he is already the backbone of a family of three, because his father unfortunately passed away many years ago. As a man, he must continue his work with his mother and sister.
Life.
Yes, people like them who make a living by picking medicinal herbs in the Yunze Realm have no fixed place and are completely competing with other wild creatures for the living space given by nature. At any time, they are losing everything they own to their families.
Tied around the waist, we live together.
Polygala, cat's claw, gentian, atractylodes, polygonatum, etc. are the most suitable herbs to pick in spring in this dense forest. Yin's family of three has been busy from early morning to noon, and has already harvested a lot.
Obviously, people are not easily satisfied creatures. They eat what is in the bowl and still miss what is in the pot. If given the opportunity, they always want to ask for more.
But nature is also fair and will not take advantage of these greedy people easily. Retribution sometimes comes slowly, but sometimes it comes in an instant.
As the picking progressed, the three of them mistakenly entered the habitat of wolves and disturbed a group of hungry wolves.
The food captured by this group of hungry wolves for several days was not enough to fill their teeth. When they found three living delicacies crashing into their territory, the hungry wolves became vicious wolves.
The three people who had survived in the jungle for a long time had not lost their basic alertness. They discovered the movements of more than ten wolves first and ran away.
Although they were a little panicked, they were fortunate that they did not run towards the path in the jungle, but instead went deep into the dense forest covered with thorns.
After all, wolves are more dominant in this area than they are. It is unrealistic to compete for speed on flat ground, and these thorns will always cause some trouble to both parties.
Yin was leading the way with a medical shovel, followed closely by his sister and mother.
They were not moving very fast, and the wolves gradually caught up with them.
There is a stream not far ahead. According to visual inspection, its width will be about one foot. If you can get to that side, Yin can guard the opposite bank with a shovel. One man can guard the gate and ten thousand wolves will not be able to escape.
The width of the stream was slightly wider than that of his mother and sister, so he could only speed up his pace and jump over first, cutting down slightly thicker wooden sticks in the forest to help them cross the water.
Unexpectedly, when he turned around and looked towards the other side of the stream, he saw that his sister was not paying attention for a moment, and was caught by the thorns at his feet, falling to the ground.
A mother would never leave her daughter alone, so she hurried over to help her.
The evil wolf is close at hand, and danger is about to come.
Fortunately, the mother and daughter did not have no choice at all. There were two roads before them, either to be torn apart by hungry wolves and become their food, or to jump downward, where there were dense scarlet thorns -
Qijuethorn, the wolves will never jump down after them.
From Yin's sister falling down to the mother and daughter jumping off, everything happened in an instant.
Yin Xi shouted: "No!"
However, it was too late.
I think the mother and daughter would be more willing to accept it than being buried in the belly of a wolf, falling into thorn bushes, and suffering some physical pain.
Although being pierced by the seven thorns into the flesh means death in seven days, they would rather wait for the poison to take effect and die than face the pain of being eaten by hungry wolves.
"ah!--"
The shrill wails came from the mouths of the two women that Yin loved. Yin's heart clenched and tears welled up in his eyes.
The heart-wrenching cries of the mother and daughter really frightened the wolves away. Apparently they also knew very well what the Seven Absolute Thorns meant.
The evil wolf reluctantly moved its gaze forward.
The wolves did not jump across the stream, even though the boy on the other side had lost the will to resist.
The young man stared closely at the movements of the wolves. With his eyes wet with tears, the wolves fled in a hurry.
Obviously, something more terrifying to the wolves appeared behind him than the Seven Ultimate Thorns.
Yin wiped the tears from his face, turned his head and saw the person clearly.
That was a graceful figure. Normally, he would have viewed it with admiration and awe, but now, he chose to kneel down, kowtow, and beg. Although she was not a few years older than him, she
She is a famous poisonous fairy in Yunze Realm.
"Poison Fairy, please save my sister, Aniang, please save them!" Yin's words were filled with tears.
"You also know in your hearts that if you are poisoned by this kind of seven-point thorn, you can only wait for death, otherwise the wolves will not give up the prey that is right next to your mouth." The Poison Fairy said coldly, without any emotion in her words.
"No, no! Aren't you Poison Fairy? Poison Fairy, there will always be a way!" Yin couldn't help the grief in his heart again, and burst into tears. His mother and sister were everything to him, and he didn't want to lose them.
A lonely life.
Poison Fairy turned her head away. She didn't want to see Yin's tears. She hated seeing others cry. People always thought that if they shed some tears like children, someone would coax them and satisfy their urgent wishes. But when she was still a child,
When she was crying secretly, no one appeared to comfort her or feed her. What she was waiting for was a snake, a huge python...
The wailing that came from behind again was like the Seven Ultimate Thorns piercing Yin's heart. Yin knew that within a hundred miles, only the person in front of him could save his mother and sister, and he asked her to take action no matter what.
Save, as long as she is willing to save, there is no poison that she cannot detoxify.
Yin crawled forward and hugged Poison Fairy's legs.
Poison Fairy did not expect this young man to behave like this. She was obviously frightened. She stepped back to shake off the hand and said in disgust: "Don't touch me!"
"I was wrong, Poison Fairy, Poison Fairy... I just hope you can save them." Yin quickly let go of his hand, kowtowed and begged, and there were blood marks on his forehead, but he seemed not to feel it at all.
Painful, the tears on his face fell onto Poison Fairy's bare ankles as he knelt down.
Poison Fairy couldn't help but trembled in her heart, could she be so persistent? Is this the so-called family affection?
"The thorns of the Seven Jue Thorns are rich in neurotoxins. With the medicinal materials I currently have on hand, I still need a key ingredient to detoxify them." Poison Fairy finally softened her heart and said.
"Look, are there any of the herbs I picked? I can give you all these herbs. If not, tell me where they are and I will definitely go get them!" Seeing the Poison Fairy relaxed, Yin's eyes lit up, and finally she finally
He grabbed the life-saving straw and hurriedly took off the basket behind him and poured out all the herbs.
"No need to turn it over, there isn't one. Generally speaking, there will always be a stream next to the Qijuethorn. On the other side of the stream, there will be thorns of different types from the Qijuethorn. And the one right now is the Yaoshang thorn, and
There should be a single-leaf Qiongzhilian in the deep treatment of Yaoshangji. The morning dew on the lotus leaves can dissolve neurotoxins to a certain extent, which is the medicine I mentioned." Before he finished speaking, another scream was heard.
, Poison Fairy was completely stunned. She never expected that the young man in front of her would jump down without hesitation.
The thorns of the Yaoshang Thorn were no smaller than the thorns of the Qijue Thorn. He jumped in without any protection. Within a moment, he was hurt by the thorns and was in excruciating pain. He wanted to hold back the pain, but he couldn't help but scream out.
Poison Fairy calmed down, took out the long whip from her waist, and pulled Yin up with a wave of her jade hand.
In just a moment, the scattered wounds on Yin's hands and feet were already shocking.
"Don't be too hasty. You need to listen to what I have to say first before you decide whether to do this." Poison Fairy said.
"No matter what, please... the fairy heal my mother and sister." Yin gritted his teeth and said slowly.
"The poison of the Qi Jue Thorn takes effect within seven days, but the poison of the Yaoshang Thorn is not immediate. The poison will remain dormant in the body for a long time. Generally, it is not serious if you are slightly injured by the thorn. However, if you suffer too much toxin, even if it is not
As for immediate death, it will also shorten their life expectancy. After all, the lotus leaves only have one leaf, and the morning dew on the lotus leaves will not be too much every day. It will take at least ten days to completely remove the toxins from their bodies. Take the medicine for ten consecutive days.
In the future, they will recover. During this period, I will use other methods to suppress the toxicity in their bodies so that the poison of Qijuethorn will not occur within seven days. The single-leaf Qiongzhilian must be among these thorns, but the specific location is unknown.
, to find it in it, you have to pay a lot of price." Poison Fairy said.
"I will definitely be able to find the single-leaf Qiongzhilian." Yin said firmly. If I could trade a few years of life for the recovery of my mother and sister, then what's the harm?
"This is a painless poison. After taking it, you will temporarily lose your sense of pain. However, after taking it for many times, coupled with the combined effects of Yaoshang echinotoxin, you will slowly lose your sense of pain. Gradually, you will lose your current sense of pain.
Some consciousness, completely forget you and your family, and lose everything you have as a human being. At that time, I can only make you into a Gu man to save your life and allow you to appear in front of them, but you don't
You will recognize them, because you are already a walking zombie, no different from death." Poison Fairy handed the medicine bottle to Yin and said solemnly.
Yin held the medicine bottle in his hand and opened the cork. He could see the small crawling insects in the bottle. He thought it was a painless poison. After taking it, he would feel no pain.
Yin did not hesitate for too long, poured out a small insect, put it into his mouth while resisting nausea, and swallowed it in one go.
He couldn't notice what the little bug was doing inside his body. He only knew that when he stepped into the thorn forest again, he would never feel pain from being stung by thorns again.
Poison Fairy did not lie to him. He indeed found the single-leaf Qiongzhilian. However, it was past noon, and a lot of the morning dew on the lotus leaves had evaporated in the sun. He had to come early tomorrow.
In ten days, his mother and sister gradually improved under the care of Poison Fairy, but Yin's body was full of holes, his expression became increasingly haggard, and there was not much blood on his face. He did not dare to let his mother and sister see him.
To him, he asked the Poison Fairy to help him lie, saying that to detoxify their bodies, a large amount of medicinal materials would be needed, and he would have to be on the road all the time.
Ten days later, he hid in the dark and saw his mother and sister smiling brightly, saying they were waiting for his brother to come back to celebrate.
As he gradually lost consciousness, he asked the Poison Fairy: "Do I still have a chance to see their smile?"
"Yes, when you die." Poison Fairy didn't know the answer at all. She just didn't want to make a person who was about to lose himself and the world sad.
Poison Fairy told Yin's mother and sister that they were saved because Yin agreed to follow her and become her subordinate, only letting him show up from a distance and wave goodbye to them.
After that, there was no more Yin in the world, only Yin's body was used as a puppet poison swordsman's addiction.
When Hongye's lovesickness pierced through the heart of Jun, and at the moment when Jun collapsed from exhaustion, Yin returned to this world. However, it was so short-lived that it couldn't even compare to a flash in the pan.
However, when he closed his eyes, he did see the smiles of his mother and sister.
