Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

Chapter 457: Chapter 457: The Lifesaving Medicine
 

“But, why does it seem like you suddenly changed your mind? Is it because of his situation that you’ve been affected?”

Ling’er just felt that everything had been fine, and all their hearts were set on entering the deep forest, but now, at this moment, he had unexpectedly changed his mind.

“I can’t explain it all in a word or two. Let’s wait until we leave this place, and then we can make plans. Right now, our main task is to save him; we can discuss the rest after dawn.”@@novelbin@@

Lin Yi didn’t want to delay any further here, and he felt that lingering on would be utterly meaningless.

So, they quickened their pace and returned to the swamp area.

They had been back and forth in this place several times now, so they were very familiar with the route by now.

After arriving here, the shimmering surface of the swamp was once again in front of them, and it seemed to have no significant difference from before.

This was what Lin Yi couldn’t seem to understand.

“Alright, Ling’er, I’m here now. So, where do you suggest we start our investigation?”

“It’s obvious. When we called out to him, he didn’t respond in time. It was only later that he suddenly appeared struggling in the swamp, which proves that everything probably happened within the swamp, right?”

“That’s right. That should be the case.”

“Do you have a strong flashlight?”

“Oh, I have one here, just a moment.”

Hei Lang said, nodded, then reached into his bag, pulled out a big strong flashlight, and turned it on.

As soon as the flashlight came on, the whole swamp was as bright as day, extremely clear, and all objects were visible before everyone.

“Where do you want to start looking?”

“He was just in that position, see it?”

At this moment, he clearly pointed to a particular area, which still seemed to have a red color that had not faded away.

“Oh, I see it. That red area, is that the hunter’s blood?”

“Yes, it’s his blood. So, if that’s the case, look over there now.”

Ling’er said this and pointed in another direction. She noticed that there were indeed a few plants there that seemed to be growing particularly well.

“Do you see it? That flowering area?”

“I see it, yes, there are flowers, but what sustains them in this swamp?”

“Didn’t you realize which way the blood was flowing?”

“Flowing direction?”

Upon saying this, he slightly furrowed his brow because he didn’t quite understand what she was getting at.

Then, he carefully examined that red area.

He noticed that the swamp began to show some movement, and during this movement, the blood continuously swirled nearby.

Finally, it all collected within that flower, and soon, the blood quite disappeared.

“I, I saw it. They, they seem to be absorbed by that flower? Can I understand it that way?”

“Didn’t you feel that the bud was especially bright and vibrant?”

Indeed, had Ling’er not reminded him again, he would have completely missed these details.

“I saw it, it’s indeed very bright and the color is very vivid. Normal flower colors shouldn’t be like this, right?”

“Exactly, that’s what I meant. So, under these circumstances, we can’t wait any longer. And now, can you understand one thing?”

“I get it. You mean that the bud grows so big because it is nourished by human blood?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“But that’s not right, either. No one has come to this place for many years. What has it been consuming all this time?”

“Perhaps, usually, prey come here.”

“Prey? You mean carnivores?”

“Yes, that’s likely. But as you can see, the bud now appears smaller than the ones before, which proves that the prey also realize that this place is not easy to approach, so they have not appeared.”

“We can’t worry about that now. Just tell me, is that bud life-saving medicine?”

“Yes, that’s it.”

“Good, then I understand. Is there a way to pick it?”

“It shouldn’t be too difficult.”

“Alright, find a way to get it, and pull it to shore. Maybe, it can be useful.”

After hearing this, Hei Lang nodded, then sought Ling’er’s opinion.

After all, Ling’er was the Collector here, so she would be the most clear about how to harvest this thing and what its effects would be upon collection.

Seeing Ling’er nod her head in agreement, Hei Lang realized that they would probably retrieve the object soon.

In the end, Hei Lang used a launcher and easily pulled the flourishing flower out by its roots directly from its spot.

Once he had done this, Ling’er quickly stepped forward and then looked down.

Yes, even now, it seemed the substance was still fizzing and emitting something.

Ling’er knew this was the life-saving medicine. She hurried over to the hunter, unraveled the gauze on his body, and then soaked his wound with all the liquid.

“You mean to say that by pouring this liquid into his wound, you can gradually eradicate the venom?”

“Yes, that should be it. Don’t rush; let’s watch a little longer.”

With that, guided by her indication, they began to wait patiently.

After about five minutes, they witnessed the wound starting to show signs of healing, and even the green liquid that had flowed out before now had completely disappeared.
