Traveling through ancient times
Chapter 40 Entering the Miasma Forest
The more this is the case, the more important the truth is! They know that only by walking out of the mountains and following the clues can they find the person behind the scenes and find out the truth! The only thing they can do now is to be careful everywhere!
Gu Wenzhi and Luo Feimo met Ma Youren and tacitly did not mention the poisoning. They just said that they had found an antidote and could rest here today and set off early tomorrow morning. When they arrived at the destination, they would not stop and go directly into the miasma forest! Ma Youren agreed very much and decided on this matter!
Old Man Gu, Gu Da and Gu Si, who were sitting not far away, were surprised to see the four people coming back, and then they returned to normal. However, they did not escape the secret observation of Gu Dalian next to them, and became more certain!
"Just because we are young doesn't mean we can be bullied at will. We need to find the truth and don't have to keep everyone to find evidence!" Gu Dalian thought to herself and smiled coldly: "I will pay you back for all the harm you have inflicted on my family!"
While resting at night, Luo Feimo approached Ma Youren and whispered to him that when they arrived at the outskirts of the Qi Forest tomorrow, they should start covering their mouths and noses with something until they got the Seven-Pearl Grass and gathered everyone from the Ma family together!
Ma Youren was stunned for a moment, didn't ask any more questions, and nodded!
That night, Old Man Gu tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He just held the pipe in his mouth and asked, "What went wrong?"
Gu Si kept his lips tightly pursed. Although he closed his eyes, his heart was still beating fast. He was thinking about the changes of Gu Wenzhi and the others. The speed of change was too fast, which was frightening! If they were not eliminated quickly, it would be even more difficult to eliminate them when they grew up!
At dawn, the tiny lights dispel the darkness of the night! It's a little chilly in the mountains at the end of August, but it makes people feel inexplicably happy! The noise of women making fire and cooking has a bit of fireworks. After a quick breakfast, another day's journey begins!
The head of the old Gu family was a little absent-minded. After the old Ma family had walked for a distance, Xiao Wang became anxious and called out, "Husband! Aren't you leaving yet?" Gu Si came to his senses and saw his father sitting on a smooth rock with a pipe in his mouth, and his mother was standing with her hands on her hips and cursing, "You bastards who only eat and worry about things. You can sell the meat to earn some money by feeding pigs, but you can only eat and sleep, and you can't do anything else!..."
Gu Da had two dark circles under his eyes, showing that he had not slept well. He forced himself to put the backpack on his back. Qin's mother and the other three hurriedly stuffed the washed clothes into their respective backpacks!
Over there, the third brother and his wife were chewing something in their mouths. Yao stuffed a handful of sweet potato chips into the side collar of her son's clothes and muttered, "Here, son, I'll pack this for you and have it as a snack!" Gu Bufan grabbed another handful and stuffed a piece into his mouth!
Looking at Liu Li's family, they must be unable to wait and follow the Ma family!
Gu Si frowned at the messy scene and shouted loudly: "If you don't hurry up, you'll stay here and feed the wolves!" The forest suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Gu Si at the same time. They were not sure whether the irritable voice came from the gentle and refined old fourth brother. Little Wang smiled and said softly: "Husband is anxious too. If we don't leave now, we will not be able to catch up with the old Ma family!" She patted Gu Si's arm gently, put on the backpack first, and walked forward steadily while holding her son's hand!
Old man Gu frowned and said in a cold voice: "Hurry up and leave!" He glanced at the old woman, slightly hunched over, put the pipe on his waist, put the basket filled with oilcloth on his back and walked away!
The old woman Zhou behind them yelled at them, "You bunch of foodies, if you don't leave now I'll hit you on the head with my cane! What a bunch of lazy bums!" She also caught up with them as she walked, carrying a small basket of fruits on her shoulder!
Gu Da had a gloomy face and carried two fully loaded baskets on a makeshift shoulder pole. He and Qin's mother, who was also carrying a backpack, followed closely behind!
Gu San and his wife hurriedly carried the basket on their backs and walked forward. Then they remembered the few fruits they had secretly hidden last night, which were still covered in the grass nearby. They hurriedly cleared the grass to pick them up. Each of them put two in their arms and hurried forward panting!
When Gu Si waited for Old Man Gu to come up, he had calmed down and his voice softened, "Dad, those bastards are a little slippery now. When Old Man Ma and the others were looking at the map, I also went to see them. Most of them have already left. If it really doesn't work,... we can let the Ma family lose some manpower." Gu Si didn't say anything else, but Old Man Gu already understood what he meant!
The poison is very powerful. Just use a little bit and spray the area with the wind. People who go there will be poisoned. If they don't take the antidote within half an hour, they will be unable to recover!
I thought the guys had gone and never came back, so I quietly put the antidote into the water in the morning without anyone noticing! Now I don’t know the specific reason, I can only go back later and see what happens!
The Ma family members walked forward quickly. Gu Wenzhi and four others had arrived earlier and had cut a lot of Seven-Pearl Grass and were waiting outside. They distributed it to everyone as they arrived, so there was no need to waste time with more than fifty people!
Gu Wenzhi and Luo Feimo led the way and flashed directly into the miasma forest, and ordered behind: "Everyone must follow closely!" Gu Dalian and Gu Xiaolian were on the left and right, and the young and strong were on the periphery, surrounding the old, weak, women and children in the center and moving forward!
As soon as they entered the miasma forest, the rotten and foul smell hit them in the face. Everyone had covered their mouths and noses with homemade face towels in advance, but it still couldn't completely block out the unpleasant smell, which irritated their eyes. If it weren't for the sufficient amount of plague-repellent grass distributed by Gu Wenzhi and the others, they would probably have died here before they could take two steps!
Everyone followed closely. The forest was filled with smoke and one could not see clearly if they were two steps behind. Every time they took a step, half of their foot would sink in, making a "puff puff" sound. Sometimes they stepped on something sticky, and when they kicked it out it would stink extremely bad. Their feet and trouser legs were covered with black stuff that dripped down, making people feel sick and scared. Even so, they did not dare to slow down even a step, in case they fell behind by two steps, they would be dragged away by the unknown thing!
Every step was extremely difficult, but no one complained. Even the children, who were only a few years old, understood the situation and were guided by the adults’ hands to move forward step by step!
Gu Dalian and the others have been alert to the surroundings. The giant python has not appeared yet. This miasma forest is its best hiding place. Although everyone has magic medicine to restrain it, isn't there still a chance of it happening?
Several people have been feeling a chill on their spines, this feeling is really uncomfortable! This team of people walking is quite noisy, which affects their judgment! Maybe the big snake is also waiting for an opportunity to move!
The visibility in front of us is at most two meters. We have been walking for an hour and have not seen any birds or animals. It seems that there are no living things in this forest except these dozens of people!
The puffing sound of people walking and the rustling sound of branches and leaves seemed to be unable to be heard, as if they were trapped in a huge water tank and swimming forward!
After walking for another half an hour, they could faintly hear the roar of a tiger, which seemed to be very far away. Then there were "squeaking" sounds, which seemed to be there and not there, and a few "bang bang" sounds. Only Gu Wenzhi and his two siblings could hear it!
Gu Dalian ran a few steps: "Second brother, Xiaoxue and Xiaohong!"
