It was just an inconspicuous little cave, and Dongfang Mian once suspected that it was just a place where some animal hibernated, but it was here that they discovered the baby whose body was afflicted by the poison.
When they found the baby, he was lying on the ground in tattered clothes, surrounded by scratches, which appeared to have been caused by him in extreme pain.
His once sweet smile was gone from his listless face; only pain remained. His eyes, once wary, were now filled with agony.
"Baby," Dongfang Mian ran over and hugged him tightly, her heart aching. Aju couldn't bear it either and stepped forward to stroke his forehead with her little paws.
"Mommy, kitty," the baby said weakly, opening his eyes a crack.
"Don't be afraid, Mommy is here. I won't let anything happen to you," Dongfang Mian hurriedly found the recovery pills and fed them to the baby. His sallow little face seemed to regain a bit of color.
"Ugh!" Suddenly, the baby began to struggle violently, as if he was suffering great pain, and his whole body twisted into a ball in Dongfang Mian's arms.
"Baby, what's wrong? Don't scare me!" Dongfang Mian saw him trembling violently and, fearing he might bite his tongue, didn't hesitate to put her finger into the baby's mouth.
"Ah!" Dongfang Mian cried out softly. The pain was excruciating as her fingers slid down her white fingers and into the baby's mouth.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Dongfang Mian was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.
"You're a poison master too, hurry up and think of a solution!" Ah Ju also anxiously paced around in circles.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Mian suddenly realized that she was also a poison master. She quickly took out the book on poison masters that she had obtained from the headmaster from her storage ring. Because she was too busy, she hadn't had time to study it. After finding it, Dongfang Mian quickly began to study it.
"Found it! It says here that when the poison takes effect, you can't give ordinary pills. You have to fight poison with poison and find some equally poisonous spiritual herbs and plants to suppress it," Dongfang Mian said excitedly.
"Highly poisonous medicinal herbs? Do you have any? Where can you find them in such a short time?" Aju asked.
"The book says that highly poisonous spiritual herbs grow on cliffs covered by poisonous miasma. Ah Ju, watch over the baby, I'm going to find them now," Dongfang Mian said before running off.
"Be careful!" Aju shouted worriedly, then looked at the baby lying on the ground convulsing, closed her eyes, and put the kitten's paw to his mouth.
"ah!!!!!"
Just as Dongfang Mian reached the cave entrance, she heard Aju's pig-like screams behind her. The images that flashed through her mind made her quicken her pace and rush into the poisonous miasma without hesitation.
After Ah Ju's paws were bitten and swollen by the baby, Dongfang Mian finally returned with a bunch of spiritual herbs and remedies.
"You're finally back! Did you find it? Hurry up and feed it to him. If this happens again, I'll become the first crippled divine beast," Aju said, collapsing to the ground.
Dongfang Mian hurriedly checked on the baby's condition, only to find that he had already fainted and was powerless. In this state, he certainly could not take these spiritual herbs on his own.
After thinking for a while, Dongfang Mian made up her mind. She first picked up a poisonous plant, took a tentative bite, and felt the juice oozing out of it before she felt safe enough to put the whole plant into her mouth and chew it.
"What are you doing? Are you crazy?!" Ah Ju rushed over anxiously, trying to pry open Dongfang Mian's mouth so she would spit out the poisonous herbs she had eaten.
