Chapter 331 Familiar Breath, Don't Move
Shen Qingran, Ji Qiubai and the other two finished their meal quickly.
I packed up my things and started walking further inside.
“Someone should live here.”
As they walked, the old village doctor said, "There are traces of people walking around here."
Shen Qingran and Ji Qiubai looked at the obvious shoe print on the ground where the old village doctor was pointing.
It feels like a child's footprints.
"there."
The three people walked towards that direction, but there was a mountain wall in front of them.
After observing for a while, the three people found a passage that could accommodate one person.
"Slow down, I'll go over and take a look first."
Ji Qiubai went over first and saw a wooden house hidden under the tree canopy.
Surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Someone lives in there!"
Shen Qingran bit her lower lip.
If this is the case, then there is a high probability that Huo Tingxiao will be rescued.
Go through that passage.
I really looked at that wooden house.
Shen Qingran became nervous for a moment.
The three of them walked quickly towards the wooden house.
Ji Qiubai rushed in at a rapid pace.
There was no one inside.
Shen Qingran, who followed in, also discovered it.
"No one?"
Ji Qiubai looked around and said, "Someone is there. The stove is still warm."
“And the things here are very complete.”
It looks like someone lives here.
Shen Qingran looked around and suddenly his eyes fell on a speck of dust beside the bed.
He twisted his fingers lightly.
Place under the tip of your nose.
"Smoke?"
Shen Qingran nodded.
"Were the people inside taken away?"
The old village doctor's eyes lit up.
"Wait a minute, don't move."
He took out a small jar from his pocket and scooped some of the ashes with a small bamboo stick and threw them into the jar.
"alright!"
Old village doctor: "This insect is very sensitive to smells."
At this time, Ji Qiubai walked in from outside.
“There are patients here.”
His face was full of joy, "Sister-in-law, if I'm not mistaken, Brother Huo must have lived here."
Shen Qingran's throat tightened. They were almost there.
But this also means that Huo Tingxiao is still alive.
Shen Qingran felt relieved immediately.
"The old village doctor said this insect can help us find the person."
The old village doctor raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute, let me take a look."
He walked towards the cabinet in the corner.
Look at the bottles and jars inside.
His brows furrowed.
"What's wrong?"
The old village doctor said: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be my granddaughter."
"ah?"
The old village doctor pointed at those things and said, "I taught you that."
Shen Qingran and Ji Qiubai looked at each other. The woman they had rescued before disappeared.
I didn't expect him to appear here and save Huo Tingxiao.
The old village doctor looked at them and said, "They shouldn't have gone very far. Let's try to catch up with them."
A Gu keeper will not easily discard the Gu worms he raises unless he has no other choice.
The old village doctor took out the poisonous insect he had just found.
Watch it squirm.
Looked towards the east.
"there."
The three people ran quickly in that direction.
Dusk is gradually falling.
The three of them walked a long distance and saw that there was no way to go.
And the insect stopped moving.
“The smell is gone.”
The old village doctor put the insect back into the jar and said, "Let's look around. There should be some mechanism."
The three of them looked at the situation nearby separately.
Apart from the mountain, there is a pool of water in front of you.
Shen Qingran's brows bulged. Water is a better medium to cover up the smell.
She stared at the pool of water in front of her in a daze.
Walked down.
The pool reflects the mountains and plants, and at first glance it looks like there is nothing there.
"Sister-in-law, do you think there is something wrong with this pool of water?"
Shen Qingran pointed at the water and said, "This water doesn't look like running water."
Ji Qiubai: "I'll go down and take a look."
As soon as he finished speaking, he dived down.
It took a long while to come up from below.
“This pool was dug by humans.”
"But there is no mechanism underneath."
Shen Qingran looked at the plants on both sides of the pond.
Logically speaking, plants that grow alongside water will not show this growth trend.
The size of the leaves seems to be a bit out of order.
This is the same as the growth law of medicinal materials.
She reached out and fiddled with a few plants.
Suddenly, he looked at the ten dollars below and subconsciously reached out to touch it.
Active?
Before Ji Qiubai could react, the stone inside the pool suddenly split into two halves.
Ji Qiubai:? ? ?
The three people looked at each other.
What a clever design.
react.
Ji Qiubai quickly shouted, "Go."
There was actually a natural cave below.
And the mechanism will slowly close.
Anyone who can design something like this is a genius.
At this time, the poisonous insect in the old village doctor's hand began to move again.
"Front."
The cave is damp and cold.
It's very chilly.
The road under my feet is also bumpy.
Every step you take must be taken with caution.
Going further ahead, there are only forks in the road.
They stared at the insect, only to find that it had stopped moving again.
That is to say, they are lost too.
Finally, the three of them discussed a way.
Water droplets condensed on the damp rock wall, and Shen Qingran held on to the stone wall and moved forward.
"It's slippery here, be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingran saw the ground under the feet of Ji Qiubai and the old village doctor in front of him suddenly collapsed.
The two of them fell down with a crash.
Ji Qiubai's exclamation and the old village doctor's groan came from different directions.
The road under Shen Qingran's feet suddenly began to sink.
At the moment of falling, she grabbed the rocks on both sides tightly.
There was a sharp pain in the nail.
But she did not dare to relax and began to climb up.
Finally reached a safe place.
"Ji Qiubai? The old village doctor?"
Shen Qingran looked towards the collapsed area below.
“Doctor Shen, don’t worry, I’m fine.”
Hearing their voices, Shen Qingran breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly a big hole collapsed underneath, it was so scary.
“Doctor Shen, this requires a rope, otherwise you may not be able to climb up.”
"I'll go find it."
Shen Qingran turned her head and looked back. This time she was more careful.
There are dangers everywhere.
If you don't have ropes you'll need vines.
Shen Qingran remembered that there were vines when he came here just now.
She turned around and looked for it.
Indeed, there is.
Just then, a sound was heard suddenly.
"Catch it and go back quickly."
Shen Qingran took a breath, and he had no idea what to do next.
And the footsteps were getting closer.
Shen Qingran's palms were covered with sweat.
Forget it, just take one.
She turned around and chose a direction, just about to hide.
Suddenly, a warm embrace wrapped her in its arms.
Warm breath sounded in her ears.
"Don't move."
Shen Qingran's eyes instantly turned red.
