Chapter 488: Chapter 488 Forbidden Area
“All right, does anyone have any hemostatic medicine? Put it on him.”
“I have some here.”
As he spoke, he walked over and gently sprinkled some white powder on the very fine needle hole.
Ling’er found it strange. If the needling had been done properly, at the correct acupoints, there shouldn’t have been any bleeding. Could it be that he had made a mistake this time? However, she didn’t voice her thoughts.
Seeing Lin Yi’s fully confident demeanor, she could now more or less guess what was going on.
“Is it all right now?”
“There should be no problem. Give it a minute or two and he will recover quickly. Just push him a bit and he should wake up.”
“Big brother, big brother.”
Ling’er, being a girl, didn’t take action herself; instead, Hei Lang went over.
Slowly, the hunter indeed opened his eyes.
And then he looked around.
“What happened to me?”
All of a sudden, the hunter sat up from the ground, then looked around at everyone. Clearly, he felt that all eyes were on him.
“You inhaled something just now near the flowers and it seems you were poisoned.”
“What? Poisoned? Oh, I remember, there was a very pungent smell, and after I went in, I knew nothing more. Are you saying I inhaled poison gas?”
“Yes, it was poison gas, but it’s already been taken care of. There’s no problem now.”
“What do you mean ‘taken care of’?”
“Yes, taken care of. So, rest assured, get up and move your limbs, see if there’s any impediment.”
The hunter felt that it was almost unbelievable.
If he had really been poisoned, it would have taken at least half a day to recover. But how had everything been resolved so quickly?
The mysterious aura of the man and woman before him completely filled his inner world.
After moving around a bit on the spot, he found that his limbs weren’t hindered, which meant his body hadn’t suffered any other harm.
“Oh, it’s nothing. I feel like there’s no problem at all now.”
“That’s good to hear. Remember, that place looked mysterious and often hides dangerous things. Those flowers might look pretty, but they’re actually very strange and filled with toxins.”@@novelbin@@
“Yes, I was careless. And when I approached, I did wonder if the plants could be poisonous. Although I was considering that possibility, I never expected the smell to be toxic. I’ve never experienced anything like this before.”
“Didn’t you say you came across a toxin before?”
“Yeah, when we first entered Xi Lian Mountain, there was a toxin, wasn’t there? I’ve told you about this, but those were flowers.”
“Since that poison gas was able to get into Xi Lian Mountain, I believe it might be pervasive in certain areas. Maybe it contaminated these flowers and they absorbed the poison, which they then released, endangering things around here.”
“Yes, it seems to be the case. And we’ve seen there’s no damage around here, so that proves not even the larger beasts dare to come close. This place is a definite no-go zone.”
“Indeed, it looks like a no-go zone. I didn’t expect this area to have so many of them, one after another. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.”
“Let’s not think about it, it’s pointless. By the way, where are we?”
After saying this, the hunter suddenly realized how unfamiliar the environment really was, including the temperature and the conditions, which were completely different from before.
“Right, I was about to confirm that with you. Doesn’t this look like the middle of the deep mountains, the very core and innermost area?”
“Looking at the environment, it seems so. Look, there’s not even grass here, not to mention trees.”
“Exactly, and that’s what puzzles me. If we can’t even find these things, where would the medicinal herbs grow?”
“If we move forward, there’s still a long way to go, so we must get through this area to find out what lies beyond.”
“But looking at this situation…”
Lin Yi hesitated, feeling that even if they moved through, they would likely face significant resistance, unlike the smooth progress they had made earlier.
Even though Lin Yi didn’t finish his sentence, the atmosphere already carried a negative pressure for all of them.
The hunter didn’t say anything, just shook his head helplessly, then stepped forward.
He patted Lin Yi’s shoulder gently twice with his hand.
Without saying a word, Lin Yi felt the weight of those pats as a significant gesture of support.
“Little brother, I told you before that entering Xi Lian Mountain isn’t as simple as you thought. Yet you were keen to enter. What now? Are you thinking of backing out?”
“No, I never thought of backing out. It just seems wrong if these things cost all of us our lives.”
“For now, we’re safe, and what we’ve been through so far hasn’t been much for me. But the real danger is in understanding what lies ahead, got it?”
“You mean deeper inside?”
“The most beautiful places often hide the most dangerous things, so no matter what we face moving forward, we must grit our teeth and persevere. Otherwise, none of us will make it out alive, understand?”
What do you think?
