Chapter 234: Medicinal Spring
There is a field of tall and dense Miscanthus in front of me.
Literally tall.
The Miscanthus here is almost twice as tall as ordinary Miscanthus.
They had just rolled down from the gaps in the reeds, and fell on the reeds, crushing a large area of them.
It was precisely because of the tall and dense reeds acting as a buffer that neither of them was injured.
At the same time, it was these reeds that blocked the view from above. Unless those people rolled down desperately, they would not be found.
But what was even more strange was that this place should be very deep from the ground, but there was no snow to be seen, not even a bit.
Logically, it is normal for snow to accumulate all year round on such a steep slope.
Not far away, there is a patch of tall arrow bamboo. Even in this season, it still looks green and lush.
Similarly, there was no snow in the bamboo forest.
Su Tong was secretly surprised when he heard Qin Yi ask:
"Su Tong, do you smell anything?"
Su Tong was just surprised, but now he realized that since he fell, there has been a smell lingering in his nose, a very familiar smell.
When Qin Yi reminded her, she realized that the place was filled with a faint smell of gunpowder.
I was shocked at first!
Was there a gunfight here? Or an explosion?
But if you smell it carefully, this smell is somewhat different from the smell of gunpowder...
To be more precise, it's more like the smell of a lit match or the smell of firecrackers just set off.
Compared with gunpowder, it has a more "stinky" smell, even a watery smell.
Su Tong always felt that this smell was familiar, but he couldn't remember it all of a sudden. Looking at Qin Yi's expression, he seemed to feel the same way.
Suddenly, they both looked up at each other and said two words in unison: "Sulfur!"
It smells like sulfur.
Qin Yi frowned. How could there be a smell of sulfur at the bottom of such a deep slope?
But Su Tong suddenly opened his eyes wide, and said with surprise:
"Brother Yi! Wait here for me. I need to confirm something!"
After saying that, she almost jumped up, pushed aside the reeds, and ran in the direction where the smell was stronger.
Although he didn't know what she was going to confirm, Qin Yi couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth again as he looked at her slightly excited back.
Then he realized...
When I'm with her, I seem to...always be smiling.
Not long after, the sound of Su Tong walking through the reeds could be heard. As soon as her figure appeared, her low but still excited voice was heard coming over.
"Brother Yi——that's great——"
Before he could finish his words, he accidentally tripped over the grass and Su Tong fell over.
Qin Yi quickly stretched out his hands and hugged her tightly.
Su Tong couldn't contain her joy, she raised her little face in his arms, her eyes sparkling as she said:
"Brother Yi! Do you know? There's a sulfur spring over there! Your leg can be saved!"
Qin Yi held her in his arms, watching her snuggle in his arms, her eyes full of smiles, her rosy lips opening and closing, like an attractive fruit waiting to be picked.
He somehow recalled the softness and fragrance of those lips... He had felt it more than once.
Even though he was focused on saving people at that time and had no distractions, for some reason, that wonderful touch could still emerge clearly in his mind at this moment.
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, and all his attention was attracted by the softness in his arms and the tempting red lips in front of him. He really couldn't spare the energy to analyze what she said.
Su Tong saw Qin Yi looking at her deeply, with emotions in his eyes that she couldn't understand. Suddenly she realized that she had thrown herself into his arms... without even noticing.
She hurriedly stepped out of Qin Yi's arms, her face red again.
Qin Yi felt his arms go empty before he suddenly came to his senses and couldn't help but curse himself inwardly.
Su Tong's face was burning with panic. He lowered his head to hide his panic. He put on his backpack with one hand and supported Qin Yi with the other hand and put him on his back...
"Brother Yi! Let's go! Let's go take a dip in the sulfur spring!"
Qin Yi looked at the thin shoulders in front of him, angry at himself for being absent-minded again and again. Even in this situation, he was still having wild thoughts.
He calmed his mind and didn't ask any more questions. He took the backpack from Su Tong's hand, tried his best to move his numb legs, and cooperated with Su Tong to move forward.
As we walked through the reeds, the smell of sulfur became stronger and stronger, and the humidity became greater and greater. After walking about fifty meters, the view in front of us suddenly opened up.
Surrounded by dense layers of reeds, there is actually a hot spring. The closer you get, the hotter you can feel, and it emits a strong smell of sulfur.
Su Tong half-carried and half-dragged Qin Yi as they stumbled to the hot spring, with uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.
"Brother Yi, it's possible that this spring water can cure your leg disease!"
"Cure?" Qin Yi was also a little surprised.
Su Tong said: "The sulfur spring itself has extremely high medicinal value. This spring with a strong sulfur smell has a higher content of hydrogen sulfide, and the temperature of this hot spring is also much higher than ordinary ones. It is extremely rare. The area under this spring should be a geothermal active area."
Fifteen minutes later, Qin Yi obediently soaked in the spring under Su Tong's arrangement.
Su Tong chose a location a little further away, avoiding each other's sight, and also soaked in the spring water. Snowflakes fluttered down and turned into water vapor before they hit the water surface.
On a cold and snowy day, this hot spring is like a gift from God, warm and healing.
Literally healing.
The two of them soaked in the hot spring for about an hour. After falling off the cliff yesterday, both of them soaked in ice water for a long time. This hot spring came at the right time. It was not only good for Qin Yi's legs, but also could drive away the coldness in the body and avoid hidden dangers.
Su Tong's back was hit hard on the cliff yesterday, and she had never taken care of it. Now that she was soaking in the hot spring, she felt the soreness and pain. She couldn't see her back, and there should be a large bruise on it.
But compared to what Qin Yi had to endure, it was nothing.
Su Tong went ashore first and put on her clothes. After confirming again and again that the special geographical location here was almost isolated from the ground, she cleared a small isolation area, made a small fire, asked Qin Yi to put on his clothes, and hung the wet underwear that the two of them had changed out of by the fire to dry.
The temperature near the hot spring is very suitable. The terrain here is low, there is reed grass for shelter, and there is no wind. It is simply the perfect place at the right time.
With the help of this medicinal spring, the acupuncture method for Qin Yi would be different. She wanted to use this natural medicinal spring to completely drive out the coldness in his legs.
She checked the remaining pills in her bag, estimated the dosage, then looked at her watch and asked Qin Yi:
"Brother Yi! If you want your legs to recover as quickly as possible, I will have to give you acupuncture at least three times from now on, with at least four hours between each session. In other words, we need to stay here until four o'clock tomorrow afternoon..."
"It will take a day, is that okay?"
