I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Liu Miao was caught off guard and bumped into Lu Yuan's chest. Her face immediately turned red, and the warm body temperature made her heart beat faster.

"Don't let go." At this point the raft was completely out of control.

Lu Yuan could have kept the situation stable by himself, but he didn't have the energy to take care of Liu Miao.

Only by holding her in your arms can you protect her safety.

Liu Miao didn't say anything, just leaned quietly in Lu Yuan's arms.

At this moment, she no longer remembered the bumpy bamboo raft or the terrifying river water. Her mind was filled with only the man's body temperature and heartbeat.

Everyone loves a strong person, and Liu Miao is no exception.

Lu Yuan is the strongest person she has ever met, and he is also very considerate. Although he looks cold, he can always help her.

I don’t know how long it took.

The bamboo raft finally calmed down a little.

It looks like this high tide has passed.

Lu Yuan let go of his hand, and Liu Miao lost her support and suddenly felt empty in her heart.

She pretended that she didn't care and reached out her hand to comb her fallen hair. "Mr. Lu, thank you so much. If you hadn't helped me just now, I'm afraid I would have fallen down and there would be no trace of my body left."

"I just don't know what's on the other side of the river. Very few people have gone there..." Liu Miao tried hard to find a topic to cover up her embarrassment.

Lu Yuan didn't care too much, his eyes were looking towards the other side of the river.

He also wanted to know what was there. Since few people had set foot there, it meant that there should still be a lot of spiritual medicines left there.

Maybe this time I can collect all the elixirs directly, so that I can go back and save Jiang Linglong.

Nearly another hour passed.

The bamboo raft finally floated to the other side.

The land here is completely different from that on the other side. It is a deep red color and has a strong smell of blood.

Liu Miao felt nauseous and almost vomited. She had no choice but to cover her mouth and nose with her hands.

"Mr. Lu, the smell here is really too strong, what's going on?"

Lu Yuan squatted down and took a look at the soil on the ground. "If what I guessed is true, this kind of soil should be nourished by human blood, so the nutrients are very high, and the spiritual medicine in it will definitely grow well."

"What? It's nourished by human blood. This is too scary!" Liu Miao couldn't believe it. How much human blood would be needed to soak this piece of land?

The amount of blood in a person's body is limited. Could it be that there are tens of thousands of corpses here?

Lu Yuan knew what she was thinking, "Such a large piece of land must have at least tens of thousands of people. However, this piece of land was not formed recently. It should have been thousands of years ago, a long time ago."

"I think this place might not be a medicinal field, but a battlefield. Only this can explain why there is so much blood here."

Hearing this, Liu Miao breathed a sigh of relief. She could accept it if it was a battlefield, but if human blood was used to nourish the medicinal fields, she would never accept it even if she was beaten to death.

This is so horrifying that it gives people chills just by listening to it!
She was a little afraid to step onto this land, but Lu Yuan didn't care and walked straight ahead.

She had no choice but to jog and catch up, "Master Lu, there shouldn't be any danger here, right?"

"A place with a strong bloody aura is bound to be dangerous, and some powerful evil spirits will breed there."

"You heard before that someone reached the other side, but did this person come out?" Liu Miao realized the blind spot. "It seems not... I only heard that someone saw him go to the other side, but I don't know if he came out."

But if he comes out, there must be some news about him, someone will know about it.

"No matter what, you must be careful. Follow me closely and never leave me within three steps."

"Okay!" Liu Miao followed Lu Yuan carefully. As they walked, her eyes were fixed on Lu Yuan's back.

It's strange to say, but for the first time, she felt a very strong sense of security with a man.

She had met many strong men before, and some even proposed marriage to her, but unfortunately she didn't have a good impression of them.

Could it be that she fell in love with Lu Yuan at first sight?
At this moment, Lu Yuan in front suddenly stopped.

Liu Miao was not careful and bumped into his back. Her nose immediately turned red. "What's wrong, Mr. Lu?"

"Something's not right up front."

Liu Miao looked around and was stunned.

I saw that the ground in front of me was filled with corpses, and on top of the corpses there were many magical herbs growing!
Liu Miao knew all these spiritual medicines, but normally they should be green or white in color, but the one in front of him was a strange red.

When the color of an elixir changes, its medicinal properties may have also changed completely!

Lu Yuan was also aware of this, "It seems that not only the land here has problems, but even the spiritual medicine has problems."

Among these elixirs, there were also some that he needed, but unfortunately their colors had changed. He did not dare to use them rashly unless he could find someone to do the experiment.

But even so, there are likely to be some potential crises.

No matter what, he had to go over and take a look first.

Seeing Lu Yuan walking away, Liu Miao had no choice but to follow.

The two men stepped into the medicine field. The closer they got to the elixir, the stronger the strong smell of blood became.

Liu Miao said tentatively, "It turns out that the bloody smell is not coming from the ground... but from these spiritual medicines."

"They are very likely to have absorbed the blood in the soil, which is why the color has changed. I just don't know if the medicinal properties have also changed."

Lu Yuan picked one, and he didn't expect that this elixir would slowly leak out red juice like a human body, emitting a strong smell of blood, just like human blood.

Liu Miao covered her mouth in fear, "How could this happen? Even if the color changes, it's impossible for something like this to flow out!"

"I know!" Liu Miao suddenly opened his eyes wide, "This is very likely not a spiritual medicine at all, Master Lu, be careful!"

The next second, the elixir in his hand exploded instantly, and countless blood filled the air.

At the same time, the same changes occurred to the remaining elixirs.

The blood fell on the bones, and the bones actually stood up staggeringly.

"I know now. This is not a magical medicine at all. It just grows into the shape of a magical medicine. In fact, it is something that grows on the body of a dead person."

"This thing is not a plant, nor is it a magical medicine. It is a creature similar to an insect. When they feel they are in danger, they will manipulate these corpses to fight back!"

"Let's go! These corpses that can reach the other side of the river must be very strong!"

Lu Yuan also noticed that the aura of these corpses was indeed very strong. (End of this chapter)
