"You recognize this thing?"
Zhan Pengfei picked a plant and handed it to him.
"This thing is called sage. It looks and smells very similar to lavender. It is also a Chinese medicine, and an extremely powerful one at that."
They usually live near Oceania; I didn't expect they'd be in the Amazon too.
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Ye Feng waved his hand impatiently…
"The Amazon River flows into the Atlantic Ocean anyway, so tell me quickly, what exactly is the purpose of this thing, and how does it help us?"
"Cough cough..."
Zhan Pengfei smiled confidently, his expression full of pride.
"This stuff has the effects of clearing heat and dampness, detoxifying and reducing swelling, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and promoting digestion..."
The most amazing thing is... it can also improve the body's immunity, and improve it in all aspects.
Furthermore, he's very friendly towards women and can even treat menstrual irregularities.
"real!?"
Liu Sisi and Qi Xiaoyan spoke almost at the same time.
Previously, when passing through a magnetic field area, the two women were disturbed by the strong magnetic field, which caused their menstruation to come early.
Men generally don't know what this means.
However, this gynecological disease can be very harmful to women. If it leaves a lasting condition, it can cause many complications in the future.
For example, common conditions like anemia, osteoporosis, general weakness, and even ovulation problems...
This means that there is a problem with fertility.
This is equivalent to male azoospermia, commonly known as "azoospermia" or "apathy".
The key issue is that the aftereffects of the magnetic field on the two women seem to have not completely disappeared in the last two days.
Perhaps due to poor physical condition, they still experience occasional bleeding.
Although there are no other major adverse symptoms, the lingering effects can be quite troublesome.
Knowing that Ye Feng was under a lot of pressure, they didn't dare to say anything.
"Of course!"
Zhan Pengfei answered very affirmatively.
"This medicinal herb has many effects. I was often beaten by my teacher because I didn't memorize it all."
I have a very strong impression of it; there's absolutely no mistake.
Ye Feng didn't notice the two women's joyful smiles; he only heard two key words: boosting immunity and anti-oxidation.
Boosting immunity is easy to understand; it simply means improving physical fitness.
The antioxidant effect means that sage contains antioxidants.
This substance can slow down aging, prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and reduce the risk of cancer.
He already has most of the important therapeutic drugs, but this is the one he doesn't have yet, but needs.
"Can this thing cure the aftereffects of magnetic fields?"
Zhan Pengfei scratched his head and shook it...
"I don't know, but let's give it a try."
"Pick them! Pick them all!"
Salla and Lia didn't hear their conversation, but seeing Ye Feng picking flowers, they joined in to help.
There wasn't much sage here, and the nine people quickly pulled out all the flowers.
Meanwhile, to the northeast, three kilometers away—
Henry and Lacey had just emerged from a thicket of bushes, their clothes covered in wet leaves.
As the two hurried along, they unknowingly walked in front of Ye Feng.
Their route is mostly through dense vegetation, making it difficult to walk, but it's closer than Ye Feng's route. The only drawback is the abundance of vegetation.
In the Amazon rainforest, the more plants there are, the more poisonous substances there are, and the more dangerous it is.
Therefore, Ye Feng did not choose to take this route, but instead opted for a more conservative and safer one.
There was no other way; if Henry wanted to ambush and kill Ye Feng and the others, his only option was to seek help from others.
There were only two of them, and their backpacks weren't as heavy as Ye Feng's and the others'.
In addition, by traveling non-stop and taking shortcuts, they had already overtaken Ye Feng by three or four kilometers.
More than half an hour later, the two finally escaped the annoying vegetation and vines and arrived at the forest path.
Their faces and necks were covered in bloodstains and plant debris.
His hair was disheveled, and even the camera on his head had some scratches, making him look extremely disheveled.
"Henry, I...I can't go on, I need to rest."
Ressie's lips were pale and her eyes were listless; she certainly looked exhausted.
Henry wiped the leaves off his face. After traveling this kind of road non-stop, they were indeed at their limit.
The two walked to a big tree, both dejected and silent.
He squinted and leaned weakly against the tree trunk, starting to gnaw on a compressed biscuit as hard as a rock.
Soon, the cookies were finished, and Reese glanced at Henry, whose face was still gloomy.
Judging from his appearance, he is clearly still upset about yesterday's defeat.
"Hey...buddy, don't take it too seriously. There's an old Chinese saying, something like...failure is the mother of success, you..."
Just then, Rexy's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly widened, and he sat up abruptly from the tree trunk, staring blankly at Henry.
Henry, realizing what was happening, turned and looked at him with a puzzled expression…
"What's wrong?"
"You!...your chin..."
Lacey's eyes widened as she pointed at Henry's jaw, her expression a mixture of horror and confusion.
Above the other person's neck, below their chin, a thread-like object was seen wriggling slightly under the skin, resembling a maggot...
It's obvious that the thing is alive.
It's like an earthworm burrowing under the skin, or like varicose veins coming to life.
The scene was so disgusting that he couldn't help but shudder, and goosebumps rose on his skin.
"neck?"
Seeing the stunned Lacey, Henry frowned and realized something was wrong. He quickly reached out and groped around his neck.
Soon, I felt the wriggling foreign object under my jaw.
His dark face instantly turned pale with fear…
As level 8 mercenaries, jungle survival is an essential skill for them.
He naturally knew that the Amazon had many parasites.
Clearly, this thing under my skin is one of them.
"Wadefa!?"
The more he touched it, the colder he felt, because the insect began to dodge his fingers and burrow under his skin.
He could clearly feel something crawling inside him…
The disgusting feeling of being parasitized was indescribable. He even felt that he would rather lose a finger than have a worm crawling around inside his body.
"Damn! Rasci, quick, get the knife! Help me get this thing out!"
Leixi quickly drew his dagger and stepped forward, but after looking left and right for a while, he still didn't dare to make a move.
Because the insect was very close to his neck, and he wasn't a professional doctor, he could easily have damaged an artery if he wasn't careful.
By then, even God might not be able to save Henry.
"This... I don't know how. What if something goes wrong?"
"You fucking!..."
Henry hesitated for a moment, then drew the dagger from his waist, preparing to do it himself.
But just then, he suddenly noticed a wriggling worm on the back of Reese's right hand, where he was holding the knife.
Also in the subcutaneous tissue...
