Finding the baby dragon unharmed, Lu Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The others rushed over after hearing Lu Yuan's voice.
When they saw him holding a young dragon with a bluish glow and covered in mud, they couldn't help but sigh.
"This guy is too naughty. We'll have to find someone to keep an eye on him from now on!"
Xiao Shan, who was standing to the side, immediately raised her hand and spoke.
"Leave it to me. I'll take care of this little brat from now on. I'll get him a leash later and see where he runs off to!"
Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, the baby dragon in Lu Yuan's arms immediately showed a sorrowful expression.
His eyes were full of pleading, but Lu Yuan was waiting for the other party to speak fiercely.
"Don't even think about running away! Stay put! There's no room for negotiation. I'll get you a rope later!"
Seeing that its freedom had been taken away, the young dragon, in a fit of pique, stopped talking to anyone and snuggled into Lu Yuan's arms to fall asleep.
It was only then that Lu Yuan noticed. The young dragon had actually come from that tree spirit, which made him extremely curious.
"Hey, this young dragon looks like it just came from the ambush. Won't the tree spirit attack it?"
As Xiaoshan wiped Yurong in the bathtub, she also felt a little curious about her own body.
He pinched a piece of mud off the baby dragon's head, smelled it, and immediately frowned.
"This stinky mud! Isn't this the sap left from that tree spirit's body?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoshan felt a burning heat in her palm, and her entire hand began to turn red.
"My hand hurts so much!"
Upon hearing Xiaoshan's words, Lu Yuan quickly came over.
Upon discovering that Xiao Shan's arm was already unrecognizable as red, he immediately forced her to drink a bottle of condensed golden fruit.
After the juice from the golden fruit was poured down her throat, Xiao Shan's hands immediately returned to normal.
Looking at Xiaoshan's expression just now, Lu Yuan sensed that this thing was definitely not simple.
"What's wrong? Could it be an allergic reaction?"
Xiao Shan shook her head.
"Impossible! I'm not allergic to anything normally. This feeling I just experienced is clearly not an allergy; it must be poisoning!"
"What? Poisoned? What poisoning?"
Xiao Shan frowned and pointed to the mud on her right scalp.
"If I'm not mistaken, this mud isn't ordinary mud. It's the sap secreted by the tree spirit that has fallen to the ground and solidified. As long as it doesn't encounter high temperatures, it can remain toxic in the air for up to a month!"
Upon hearing these words, Lu Yuan frowned.
He quickly looked at the mud on the baby dragon's head, found a plastic bag, and put the mud in.
"Don't wash him yet! I'm going to Chen Yan's place to have this mud analyzed to see what's in it!"
Xiao Shan nodded. He dared not continue, for who knew if he would be poisoned again.
Fortunately, Lu Yuan was there; otherwise, he would probably have already been poisoned and gone into shock.
The feeling of palpitations still makes him feel a little scared when he thinks about it now.
Lu Yuan, carrying the bag of mud, rushed quickly towards Chen Yan's laboratory.
Chen Yan's tent was filled with various instruments, all of which Lu Yuan had brought to her in the dimensional space. Their main purpose was for analysis. At that moment, Chen Yan was inside the tent conducting tests and analyses on some samples.
Hearing the commotion outside, Chen Yan put down her work, put on her glasses, and looked back.
What brings you here?
With a gloomy face, Lu Yuan handed over a bag.
"I just found some mud on the baby dragon's head. This stuff is poisonous. Can you test it to see if it's the same kind of poison as the tree spirit's?"
Chen Yan quickly took the bag, examined it carefully, and then smelled it.
"It should be. This stuff is mixed with the mud below, but that can't hide the highly irritating venom inside. I'll check it out and I'll see!"
After speaking, Chen Yan spread out the sample, picked up a small spoon, scooped up a little bit, placed it on a glass slide, and then put the slide under the eyepiece of the microscope. After some examination, she did find some clues.
"Just as I guessed, these things are the poison left by the tree spirit! You said this stuff was found on the baby dragon's head?"
Lu Yuan nodded.
"Yes, it was found on the baby dragon's head. He was covered in mud. When I was holding him, my clothes were through these mud. Just now, when Xiaoshan was giving him a bath, her hand touched the mud and she reacted instantly. I was terrified. Luckily, I was giving you money, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
"Hmm, this mud is strange. It doesn't look like you can touch it casually. You just said that the baby dragon was fine after touching it?"
"Yes, the baby dragon is really fine, it's still fast asleep there!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, a glint immediately flashed in Chen Yan's eyes.
"I think I've found a way to deal with this tree spirit!"
Seeing how excited the other party was, Lu Yuan also showed a hint of joy on his face.
"Really? Then tell me exactly how to do it!"
"The key lies with the young dragon. Perhaps we can find a way to deal with my tree spirit from him. Come on, I want to go see that young dragon!"
