Chapter 0405: Red Fruit

It is precisely when I remembered this well-known old saying in China that I thought that I might be able to find an antidote near the highly toxic plant with spikes, and I was not sure, so I could only try my luck.

The reason why this place has a poisonous miasma must also be related to the highly poisonous plant, otherwise why only this poisonous miasma is pervasive, perhaps it is a chemical reaction between a certain toxin secreted by this plant and a certain gas, and the poisonous mist caused by the air that melts into it, this is the only explanation I can think of.

The evil wolf was in danger, and the ninja and I didn't dare to delay for a second, and the fire rushed back into the poisonous miasma, and used the strong flashlight to carefully observe the plants in the miasma, and soon found the culprit who caused the poisoning of the brothers.

It was a jujube-like plant, about a meter tall, covered with spikes except for the leaves, and between the leaves there were red cherry-like fruits.

I turned my head to look at the ninja, he shook his head at me, saying that he had never seen this kind of thing, I used to live in the deep mountains and old forests when I was trained by special forces, and I have seen a lot of strange plants, but this is the first time I have seen this plant, this should be a specialty of Savage Mountain, and there is no other place suitable for it to grow.

Its leaves are divided into three forks and are somewhat similar to the leaves of the ginkgo tree, with clear lines arranged regularly, and the fruits are crystal clear, Yin Hong is like blood, and there are mist and dew drops stuck on it, and there is an urge to bite when you look at it.

As the saying goes, the brighter and more beautiful things are, the deadliest ones, and this is not only true for mushrooms, but also for other plants, this fruit looks as tempting as a ruby, but once eaten in the mouth, what it tastes like is not said for the time being, but the poison can kill people in a few minutes.

"Find out if there's anything else here besides this plant, and if so, it's the antidote." I turned to the ninja and said, he didn't understand why I was so sure, but he didn't question my words.

The two of us walked cautiously between the plants, and if we didn't notice a little bit of spikes cutting through the skin, we would die without a place to bury, and then there would really be no help.

We carefully searched for the poisonous plants everywhere, and every step was cautious, raising our legs and falling lightly, for fear of being accidentally scratched by the stinger, but the situation was unexpected, in this poisonous miasma, there was only this one species, after careful observation we found that the big trees in the poisonous miasma were dead wood, and it seemed that they had been dead for a long time, leaving only one trunk left, standing in the middle of a large number of highly poisonous plants.

In fact, plants and animals are the same, there are also strong and weak, in this kind of deep mountains and old forests, each powerful species has its own territory, and plants are no exception, just like this highly poisonous ghost thing under your feet, this area is its territory, and other things cannot survive at all, unless you can fight against its poison, and that kind of thing is the antidote.

Species in the world live and restrain each other, and under normal circumstances, there must be something that can detoxify near the poison, otherwise it would have been against the sky and would not have been maintained in such a large area.

But this time it seems to have miscalculated, the two of us searched for nearly fifty meters in this poison, and there was no other species, not even a single grass, I couldn't help but get anxious, how could this be, this is not common sense at all, it must have natural enemies, otherwise it would have occupied Savage Mountain a long time ago.

"But what is it? Where exactly is the antidote? "I beat my forehead one by one, used all my strength to think, forced myself to stay calm, and encouraged myself over and over again, I must find an antidote, I can't give up, absolutely not.

At this time, the ninja walked over, and I turned my head and asked, "How is it?" Is there a spot? ”

He shook his head in frustration, his eyes were full of loneliness and sadness that could not be concealed, he was different from me, he never expressed anything, especially after experiencing the matter of watching the moon and Xuedai, he was even more silent, always hiding himself in a dark corner, lonely with his loneliness, sad with his sadness.

"You can't just give up and keep looking." It was the only way I could think of, and I was convinced that there must be an antidote, so I lowered my head and searched aimlessly among the poisons, when the crystal red fruit fell into my eyes again.

I suddenly had a bold idea, this red fruit should not be the antidote, some animals are poison antidote itself, such as centipedes, scorpions, the antidote to the poison of these poisons are extracted from them, plants also have this situation, the fruit is poisonous, the leaves are the antidote, with poison to fight poison, neutralize each other, you can achieve the effect of detoxification.

But this situation is not common, once my judgment is wrong, the red fruit is not the antidote, and the two highly toxic substances enter the body, and there is really no way to recover.

What to do? Should you try it or not? I was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle, and finally I took a deep breath and made a decision, I couldn't let my brothers do experiments, it was I who brought everyone into Savage Mountain, if I wanted to test the medicine, I had to try it myself, I couldn't take everyone out, and I didn't have the face to go back to see the captain and the other brothers.

Thinking of this, I reached out and picked two red fruits, rolled up my sleeves to expose my arms, took a deep breath, and hesitated slightly, I am not a saint, and I will hesitate a little when faced with the choice of life and death, but this does not affect my decision.

I looked down at my arm, and then suddenly reached out and slashed at the spike on the poison, and at that moment, an arm suddenly reached out next to me and grabbed my wrist, and I was shocked, and immediately turned my head to look at the ninja next to me.

I saw his other hand, quickly slicing through the poison, and I couldn't stop it, but in an instant, four or five spike wounds appeared on his arm.

"What the hell are you doing?" I roared with wide eyes.

"You still have a goddess to take care of, and I am alone and have nothing to worry about, let alone life and death, I will test the medicine for you." He looked at me with a smile on his lips and said lightly.

"Who the hell is using you for you, you bastard! I'm telling you, Lao Tzu won't appreciate it. I yelled and yelled, and pulled his wrist, which was marked with blood by spikes, and my heart tingled like a pinprick as I watched the toxin enter his bloodstream.

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and try the medicine, chirp crookedly like a woman." The ninja chuckled, and there was a hint of calmness in his eyes.

I was holding two red fruits, and I didn't dare to take the drug, this is gambling with the life of a ninja, and if he makes a slight mistake, he will be highly poisonous, and he will die immediately, then I am the murderer, the murderer who killed his comrades with his own hands, once upon a time, such a thing was born once in my memory, this situation, the fragments of those memories, gradually put together, let me lose all my courage.

The ninja smiled and shook his head, snatched the red fruit from my hand, picked one and swallowed it without hesitation, and crushed the other one and applied it to the wounds, I looked at him in amazement, and by the time I reacted, he had done everything.

The ninja patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you have an old Chinese saying, "A soldier dies for a confidant" We are mercenaries and doomed to be lonely, and you are my only friend, comrade-in-arms, and confidant. ”
