Fine raindrops pattered on her face, and Yu Mingxiang was delighted to hear this.
"real?"
She couldn't hide her excitement as she asked, "How much further? How long will it take us to get there?"
The person said, "We're just down the mountain. If all goes well, we should be able to reach Commander Gu and the others in about half an hour!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry!"
"yes!"
After several days of relentless pursuit, we finally received definite news about Gu Guanhai.
At this moment, Yu Mingxiang felt much relieved.
But.
As the group walked through the rain, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!!"
Looking at the surrounding bushes, his brows furrowed even more deeply.
"Wait a moment."
She stopped the group, moved slightly closer to the bushes, picked up a branch, and parted the bushes to reveal a tangled mess of fungi.
This mushroom...
poisonous!
Moreover, there are obvious signs that they have been picked!
Yu Mingxiang: "Proceed with caution."
She said in a deep voice, "The poisonous mushrooms nearby show signs of having been picked. Some of the local natives should know about pharmacology. Be careful not to fall into their trap!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts tightened and they quickly agreed.
The team set off again.
They became increasingly cautious.
soon.
They came to a place where the bones of children were scattered everywhere.
The rain washed away the fallen leaves covering the skeletons, and the scattered bones emitted an eerie, dark light.
Upon seeing the skeletons, the guards and bodyguards, fearing they might frighten Yu Mingxiang, instinctively tried to lead her around, but...
Yu Mingxiang, however, keenly noticed the unusual color of the bones.
She stepped forward and poked at a small section of leg bone with a twig, saying in a low voice, "Poisoned?"
"The owner of these remains was poisoned before he died!"
Only those who die from poisoning will have unusual colors left on their bones.
This is also an important point of evidence in autopsies.
Although Yu Mingxiang did not come from this profession, as a doctor, she knew a little about it.
Especially after she discovered that the poisonous fungi nearby had been picked, she almost naturally associated the poison in the bones with those fungi.
Did someone pick poisonous mushrooms and kill these people?
Why?
This is already deep in the Changbai Mountains.
The primitive tribes living here would not be so fratricidal.
Could it be...?
Is it Qin Yuzhu?
The thought of this possibility sent a chill down Yu Mingxiang's spine.
"Madam Yu."
A guard, his face grim, said in a deep voice, "I just checked. These remains are those of children. Judging from the degree of decomposition, they must have died not long ago."
"Not only that, the area is also full of animal traps."
"If I'm not mistaken, someone is using these children as bait to lure wild animals."
These words were spoken.
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
He was struck dumb, frozen on the spot.
Using children as bait to lure wild animals?
What kind of things would this primitive tribe living here do?
If the primitive tribes living here were truly this inhumane, then the entire tribe should have perished long ago; it would be impossible for them to have survived to this day. After all…
Children are the foundation for the continuation of the tribe!
With all the children gone, how will this tribe continue?
Qin Yuzhu!
It must be Qin Yuzhu!
No outsider could do something like this!
Even outsiders don't usually have such a vicious heart!
And Qin Yuzhu...
She is a person from the future who transmigrated into a book!
Having received education on poisonous mushrooms, and with a bit of courage and proper precautions, she was able to pick those poisonous mushrooms and use them for her own purposes!
Of course, the most crucial factor is that Qin Yuzhu is ruthless and vicious enough!
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
Take a deep breath.
He addressed the crowd, saying, "Continue searching for Gu Guanhai and Lao Yuan. Be careful of your surroundings and avoid stepping on traps."
"yes!"
The voice of response came.
The group started moving again.
soon.
They made a new discovery.
