Chapter 338 This Grass Eats People! (11)

Lao Zheng reacted and shook his head quickly.

"No, no, I was just kidding! Oh, sister-in-law, don't cry! It's all my fault. Why did I bring this up? Now Tingyue is still in danger... Ouch!"

He felt a sharp pain in his back and almost jumped up in pain. It was obvious that Old Li had pressed the wound hard again.

Taking another look at Song Shiwei, whose tears were already falling, Lao Zheng quickly slapped himself in the face.

"Look at me, I'm just talking about something else! Sister-in-law, let's not talk about anything else. Once I change the medicine, we'll go out and look for Tingyue and the others. Tingyue is a lucky man, and he'll be fine!"

Old Li also nodded quickly: "Yes, it's okay, it's definitely okay!"

From the conversation, he could also tell that the man named Zhou Tingyue was the little girl's husband. If it wasn't for her husband, why would she, a little girl, put herself in danger!

Song Shiwei wiped her tears and waved her hands.

"It's okay, Brother Zheng, I don't blame you. It's all my fault for not being able to control my emotions. Once you change the medicine, we really have to leave right away. I'm afraid... after so many days, Tingyue and the others..."

Old Li quickly tied a bow behind him and nodded, "Understood! We all understand! Let's go!"

Old Zheng didn't know that Old Li had tied a bow on his back. He quickly put on his tattered coat and stood up with a heroic look: "Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!"

As a result, when he turned around, Song Shiwei almost laughed out loud when he saw the bow sticking out from the hole in his clothes.

Old Li winked at her and smiled smugly.

Take out a Xiaoyao pill from the bag.

"Boy, take this pill quickly. Although most of the snake venom has been eliminated, there is still some residual poison left!"

Lao Zheng took the pill quickly and obediently. The pill was very bitter and he had to drink it sparingly with water, so he simply put it in his mouth and chewed it.

This chewing almost made him shed bitter tears.

"Uncle Li, why is your medicine so bitter today?"

Old Li smiled and blinked.

"Because I added some more coptis root for you, it clears away heat and detoxifies, and the effect is good!"

Seeing his expression, Lao Zheng felt so unconvinced, but he still swallowed it despite the pain.

This made Song Shiwei's last bit of sadness disappear.

I couldn't help but cover my mouth and laugh out loud.

Old Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her smile.

"Alright, alright, let's go! Let's get out of this stone forest as soon as possible. This forest is very big. It will probably take us half a day to walk!"

However, thanks to Song Shiwei's watch, everyone kept walking in one direction and soon got out of the stone forest.

Entered into a forest.

Old Li feels somewhat familiar with this forest.

"We are safe here. This is the farthest I have ever been. Then I turned back. There are many herbs here! Some are very precious!"

He made a lot of money from selling the herbs he dug here.

Fortunately, we found a century-old ginseng.

Song Shiwei looked at the small woods in front of him and indeed discovered a lot of things.

Maybe it was because it rained two days ago, so there were a lot of cocklebur mushrooms growing in the forest.

This chicken leg mushroom is delicious whether it is stir-fried or stewed!

Unfortunately, there is no time to pick mushrooms now, they have to hurry to find Zhou Tingyue.

Old Li had obviously thought of this as well, and looked around with some regret.

I could only pick some herbs that passed by.

Just then, he noticed a cluster of red fruits.

At that time, I couldn't walk.

Song Shiwei followed his gaze.

Apparently, a few small red fruits were also discovered, which are invisible unless you look carefully.

"Uncle Li, it's ginseng!"

Old Li nodded with some heartache.

“Yes, it’s ginseng!”

Unfortunately, digging ginseng takes a long time. They have important things to do now. Human lives are at stake. Where do they find time to dig ginseng?

Old Zheng naturally knew how precious ginseng was.

But he was more concerned about Zhou Tingyue!

"Uncle Li, how about we go find Tingyue and the others first?"

Old Li sighed and nodded with some regret.

"I understand!! Let's go!!"

Song Shiwei carefully noted the location of the ginseng.

"Uncle Li, after we find Tingyue and the others, we will definitely need to return the same way! I promise you, as long as we find them, we will accompany you to dig ginseng here. No matter what we dig, we will help you find more medicinal herbs for you to take away! What do you think?"

"Are you serious??"

Old Li's eyes suddenly lit up.

Song Shiwei immediately smiled and nodded: "I promise!!"

"Okay!! Okay, okay!"

Old Li was obviously very happy, and he walked with a breeze.

"Let's find someone quickly!!"

It would be best if they could find it today so they can come back to dig ginseng.

As a Chinese medicine practitioner, seeing that precious medicinal herbs cannot be harvested is like a group of kittens nagged at his heart, making him itchy and uncomfortable!

Although Old Li said this forest is quite safe, you still have to be careful of snakes, insects and poisonous ants.

They took out the herbal juice that Old Li had given them and smeared it all over the exposed skin.

The forest is not big, about twenty to thirty meters away.

After exiting the forest, the view in front of us suddenly opened up to a wetland-like area with water stains and dense aquatic plants.

As soon as Song Shiwei stepped down, the entire lawn sank and the water soaked the soles of his shoes.

Lao Zheng walked fast and with great strength, and when he took a step, his calf sank directly into the bend!

Song Shiwei and Old Li were so scared that they quickly pulled him out.

Lao Zheng's face turned pale.

"What is this thing? Why is it sinking further? This grass is eating people!"

This was also the first time for Old Li to come here. He had walked to the woods and returned, so he had no idea about the situation here.

However, I have heard of a legend that there is a man-eating quagmire in Death Valley, and if you are not careful you will be swallowed up by the quagmire.

Song Shiwei also frowned.

She pressed her hand on the grass in front of her.

The lawn was easily pressed down.

There seems to be a big elastic water ball below.

"Uncle Li, can you lend me the shovel you brought with you?"

She prepared to dig a little to see what was underneath. If it was all water, it would be easy. She could just push aside the water plants and swim across.

If it's a swamp, it will be really difficult to deal with!

Old Li quickly handed her the small iron shovel tied to his back.

Song Shiwei dug a big hole in the water grass in front of him.

There is water underneath!

Old Zheng's face lit up with joy.

"It turns out to be water! If it's water, it's easy. We can just swim across it!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Song Shi's expression changed slightly: "No! There is no water below!"
