The First Daughter Reborn: The Snake Queen is not easy to mess with

Chapter 214 Breaking into the Forest
"Why do you need to take refuge? What happened here?" Li Xiaochuan asked while passing the water.

"There is war here, and the area over there is even more chaotic." The woman took the water bottle in Li Xiaochuan's hand, took a sip before speaking.

Meng Yizhen frowned and said, "Where is that over there?"

"In northern Xinjiang, it's very chaotic there now. No one has gone there. You are not from this place at first glance. I told you because you are good." The woman looked at the appearance of the two, but said nothing about the war A trace of anxiety seemed to be that the loss of her son had completely worn away all her temperament.

"Thank you, you should hurry up and find your son, maybe he has already left here with those people."

After finishing speaking, Meng Yizhen gave her some money, and then left here with Li Xiaochuan.

After questioning the woman, they immediately realized that this place could not stay for long, so they prepared to leave after thinking about it.

"If there is a war in northern Xinjiang, there will probably be many thieves and bandits on the road. It is not suitable to go there now, but we don't have a lot of trouble." Meng Yizhen said a little worried.

Li Xiaochuan thought for a moment after hearing this, and then replied: "Let's find a secluded place to hide for a while, things are not in a hurry, we also need to find a place to carefully think about the next step. "

According to the directions reminded by the woman, the two followed the opposite direction, neither going in the direction of the war nor the direction where the common people took refuge, but walked in the other direction.

Walking and walking, there is an endless jungle in front of you.

After walking for more than half a day, it was really not suitable to continue walking because of the hot weather, so he stopped by a tea shop on the side of the road to have a rest.

The tea shop is very simple, just set up a simple shed and placed a few tables. In the hot weather, people passing by occasionally get tired from walking and drink some tea.

The owner of the teahouse is an older grandfather with gray hair and looks very kind.

They ordered two bowls of tea and sat down.

After the shop owner brought the tea, he said, "I see you are planning to go into the jungle, right?" The tea shop owner smiled very kindly, but at this time his face was slightly nervous, hesitant to speak.

"Well, we are indeed planning to go in. Is there any problem here?" Meng Yizhen looked at the grandfather and asked.

The old man sighed and shook his head after hearing this, and said, "It's very evil here, it's said to be haunted. A few days ago, a girl also went in here, saying she went in to find some grass, and she never came out again."

After the old man finished speaking, Li Xiaochuan carefully looked at the old man's appearance, and felt that what he said did not sound like nonsense.

"Master, don't listen to their nonsense, how can there be ghosts in this world." Meng Yizhen said with a grin.

"However, the girl did not come out after entering. It is said that there are many ferocious beasts here. Even if they are not evil, it is very unsafe inside. Some of them come to hunt. It is said that the things they hunt are very valuable, but so far So far, there are very few people going in to hunt, and I'm afraid they are afraid of something inside." The old man said with a hint of fear, tsk-tsk twice.

"Master, we got it, thank you for reminding me." Meng Yizhen just smiled back at the old man after hearing this.

The old man was also a sensible person and stopped saying anything after that.

After they finished their tea, they said goodbye to the old man. Before leaving, the old man still reminded him, but Meng Yizhen just smiled and said nothing. Seeing this, the old man sighed and shook his head. Shaking his head, he kindly reminded: "If you have to go in, be careful. It is said that there is a very ferocious beast with a strange appearance. Many hunters were buried in its mouth. If you encounter When we arrive, remember to hide and not face to face confrontation."

Meng Yizhen nodded his head as he agreed, and afterward, Li Xiaochuan paid the tea money to the uncle and left, taking Meng Yizhen with him, but he didn't go in directly.

"What's the matter, aren't we going in? Why are we going there?" Meng Yizhen followed Li Xiaochuan's footsteps and walked in the opposite direction with some doubts.

"Looking at the appearance of this forest, the possibility of being haunted is very absurd, but the hunting is very likely to be real. We can't just go in with bare hands. We have to make preparations in advance."

Not far from here, there is a firm that specializes in selling weapons. Originally, Meng Yizhen jokingly said that the location of this store is very strange, but now after hearing what the old man said, he doesn't think there is any problem.

Li Xiaochuan and Meng Yizhen came to the weapon shop they passed by. Meng Yizhen was not aggressive, so he just took a dagger for self-defense, while Li Xiaochuan took more things, besides a few daggers of different shapes, he also bought other He picked up a bow and arrow, and by the looks of it, he was about to go hunting.

"Are you going into the forest, little brother?" The boss of the weapon seller asked as he watched the two purchase equipment.

"Not bad." Meng Yizhen replied.

After hearing this, the owner of the weapon shop took out a black bag from behind and threw it in front of Meng Yizhen and Li Xiaochuan. After Meng Yizhen and Li Xiaochuan looked at each other, Li Xiaochuan stretched out his hand and opened the bag, only to find that there was a large bag inside. A piece of raw meat exuded an unpleasant smell of rotting meat.

"There are many strange species in this forest. If you encounter invulnerable ones, this piece of meat may be of great help to you. This meat is already smelly. I will give it to you for free today. Anyway, for them, There is no difference." The owner of the weapon shop said very generously.

Meng Yizhen thanked the owner of the weapon shop.

After everything was settled, they were ready to go in, and passed by the uncle's teahouse. The uncle looked at them and said nothing, wishing them peace silently in his heart.

They went in in the afternoon, and there was a lush forest when they entered. They walked straight forward, and there was nothing unusual.

When walking straight ahead, the sharp-eyed Li Xiaochuan suddenly found a cave next to it, and it was getting late at this time, Li Xiaochuan said: "If you go any further, it will be difficult to see the road clearly. Rest here."

"En." Meng Yizhen nodded in approval.

After the two of them entered the cave with a beast, it was so dark that they couldn't see anything clearly, so Meng Yizhen said, "Before it's completely dark, go find some dry firewood nearby, I'm in this cave Let's see if there's anything else."

However, after hearing this, Li Xiaochuan frowned tightly and refused without thinking, and said very righteously: "No, this is too dangerous, what if there are wild beasts?"

Meng Yizhen shook his head helplessly and said: "This is a jungle, even if there are ferocious beasts, I just need to summon them, and the snakes will have eaten all the ferocious beasts."

This is also the reason why Meng Yi really dared to stay. The number of snakes in the forest must be astonishing. Even without a dagger to defend herself, she is sure that she can easily deal with other beasts.

Even so, Li Xiaochuan didn't agree anyway.

In the end, there was no other way. Under Li Xiaochuan’s insistence, Meng Yizhen had no choice but to obey him. They went out together to find some wood. When they came back, it was completely late. If so, it might not be a good night.

After setting the fire alive, Li Xiaochuan was about to go out of the cave to have a look at the side. After looking around for a week, he didn't find anything strange, so he was about to go back. But at this moment, there was a sudden pain in the calf, and Li Xiaochuan wrinkled slightly. Frowning, seeing the thorns next to him by the moonlight, he didn't take it seriously, and then walked back.

And when he was inside the cave, Li Xiaochuan suddenly felt uncomfortable all over, a little sweat broke out on his forehead, and a faint bruise appeared on his lips, this feeling without warning made Li Xiaochuan suddenly think of his calf, When I opened the trouser leg by the light of the fire, I saw a small wound on the calf, and the black blood had scabbed over.

After Meng Yizhen finished burning the wood and lit the fire, seeing Li Xiaochuan's expression was wrong, he asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you, why is your face so ugly?

"When I came back, I was bitten by something. It seemed to be a poisonous snake." Normally, Li Xiaochuan would not have worried Meng Yizhen at all, but the situation is different now. How could Meng Yizhen make him feel at ease when he was alone?

After hearing this, Meng Yizhen's expression tensed instantly, he hurriedly got up and walked to Li Xiaochuan's side and asked carefully, "Where is it, show me quickly."

Immediately after, Li Xiaochuan straightened up his trouser legs again, revealing the swollen wound inside, Meng Yizhen quickly lowered his head to examine it seriously.

"Do you know what kind of snake it is?" Li Xiaochuan knew that Meng Yi really knew how to control snakes, so he naturally thought that she should be more experienced in these things.

However, Meng Yizhen did not answer Li Xiaochuan, but kept frowning and looking at the wound, and after a while, he said with a straight face: "This is indeed a poisonous snake."

"Is there anything I can do now?" Li Xiaochuan's lips were purple now, and he looked very painful, but he still endured the discomfort all over his body and asked pretending to be calm.

"Looking at your appearance, you should be poisoned to the point of deepening. If you don't release the poison, I'm afraid your right leg will be lost." Meng Yizhen pursed his lips and said seriously. Immediately, Meng Yizhen put his clothes on Tore a corner, and then said: "The most urgent thing is to suck out the poison."
