Chapter 17 Come Up, I'll Carry You
There was a wind blowing around, and the bloody smell from the beast gradually dispersed in the air.

As soon as Lu Nanshen put away the dagger, he realized that something was wrong behind him. He turned around suddenly and vaguely saw a figure standing there.Because the sky was still unclear, that person was hiding in the large shadows, he couldn't see the other person's appearance clearly, and he even felt that maybe it wasn't a person at all.

until the man spoke. "Don't you admit it? You're actually not kind."

The other party's voice was very indifferent, just such a sentence, as if he knew him well.In fact, Lu Nanshen couldn't even see who the other party was, and the voice was not someone he knew well.What made Lu Nan's back even colder was, where did this person come from?Did he not hear the man's footsteps?
impossible.

The man never moved forward, Lu Nanshen could only make out a general outline of his sturdy figure in the faint light, as if he was wearing outdoor overalls.

"Who's there?" Lu Nan said coldly.

The man answered irrelevantly, "Go back to where you should go and stay away from him, otherwise..."

A stone came through the forest unexpectedly, and arrived quickly.This time, Lu Nanshen was able to predict the direction of the stone in advance, and with a quick dodge, the stone hit the tree trunk.

Lu Nan sternly shouted, "Who the hell are you? And who are you talking about?"

However, the man didn't answer his words, turned around and went deep into the forest.His first reaction was to chase after him. He rushed forward a few steps and thought of the person in the cave, so he held back and didn't chase.

Whether it is an enemy or a friend is unpredictable, so be cautious.

There were no traces of the tree trunk that was hit, and the stone did not know where Gulu went. There were many weeds and stones everywhere.Lu Nanshen recalled carefully that the man's fingers were quite strong, and the distance between the two of them was not too close just now. If he hadn't listened to the sound to identify the position and avoided the stone in time, once he hit it, he would definitely be bruised.

Lu Nanshen narrowed his eyes again to look at the direction where the person disappeared, and the wind was still heavy.

Hang Si came here for the plants in the cave.

Those almost transparent little white flowers that turn red when stained with blood.

When Lu Nanshen returned to the cave, she saw that she was putting the picked white flowers into a cloth bag, not pulling out the whole plant, just the flowers.

The headlight on her head was turned on again, and through the light, Lu Nanshen saw that her hands were moving neatly and skillfully, pinching the flower buds with her thumb and forefinger and pinching them gently, one row at a time, then putting them into the bag again Throw, live together.

"What's so special about this flower?" Lu Nan squatted down to help her pinch the flowers together, but when his fingers touched the buds, something strange hovered in his heart.

How to describe it, it doesn't feel like pinching flowers, but like touching someone's skin. The skin between the fingers is very heavy, but he can't stand it. Just pinch it with his hands, and the flower buds melt into water up.

There was a lot of flower fluid on the fingers, which turned out to be light red.

Hang Si turned his head and glanced at him, his handsome face fell into the beam of light, which made him squint his eyes slightly.Just such a squint made her think of Qiao Yuan again, and her heart skipped a beat.Turning his head back, he calmed down before telling, "It can be used as medicine, but I don't know the scientific name of this flower. Those who know it call it blood-sucking flower."

Lu Nan was deeply surprised, "Blood as nourishment?"

Then look at the layers of bones under the feet, and you will understand.

Hang Si hummed, "This flower is transparent white without blood, and once it sucks blood, the whole bud turns red. I also heard that there is a beast in Death Valley that especially likes to eat red buds. Maybe it was delicious, so I drove all the small animals in the valley to the range of blood-sucking flowers, and then killed the small animals alive, and the blood that flowed out can nourish the most delicious flowers."

Lu Nan understood.

From this point of view, whether it is a man-eating beast or a flower-eating beast in the so-called legends, it is most likely the creature with the head of a tapir.Hang Si went into the cave to pick flowers, and the tapir went to the cave to eat flowers, so they met each other.

Lu Nanshen picked up a piece of bone beside him, and he found the bite marks after a quick look, so it was not wrong for the beast to die in the end.

Seeing that he wanted to help, Hang Si told him to control his hand strength and learn to be clever.He is also a quick learner, and he can get started in a while.Hang Si looked at him squatting in the bushes and pinching the flowers one by one, he looked really cute, and thought to himself, this kid is not annoying.

Lu Nan pinched deeply and asked Hang Si, "What disease can this flower cure?"

"Delusion." Hang Si was tired, he shook his hand and continued to pinch, picking another handful in a hurry. "That is, people who are crazy or have hallucinations will improve after eating this flower. It can be regarded as a dose of medicine."

"You?" Lu Nan was deeply surprised.

Hang Si glanced at him, but he really dared to think. "Neighbor, I don't know him well."

Lu Nan said from the bottom of his heart, this girl can do it, even with unfamiliar relationships, she can bravely venture into the Valley of Death regardless of danger. "Do you think life is boring or is it a bodhisattva's heart?"

"Neither of them." Hang Si got up and said word by word, "This trip will pay a lot of commission." She didn't hide her purpose, and then went deeper and continued to work, the small cloth bag in her hand Almost full.

Lu Nan was slightly taken aback, looked up at her, and almost blurted out to ask her, are you short of money?But the car stopped in time, isn't this nonsense?

After pinching like this for another ten minutes, Hang Si felt that it was almost done. Just as he wanted to get up, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye.

"Eh?"

Hearing the sound, Lu Nan raised his head and saw Hang Si pulled something out from among the broken bones, hesitated, "This is..."

He stepped forward to take what was in Hang Si's hand, and looked at it by the light of the headlamp, it looked like a brand, probably covered with blood and oil stains after being buried for a long time.Lu Nanshen wiped most of it clean with the corner of his clothes, and at first glance, it looked like a sign of nothing.

Hang Si took a look, "It seems that someone broke in a long time ago." After speaking, he looked around subconsciously.

Lu Nan deeply understood what she meant. Some people have come in, but it's not certain whether they can get out.Thinking of this, he didn't react too much, until he turned over the sign and saw the pattern on the back, and his face was startled.

Seeing this, Hang Si asked him what happened.

Lu Nanshen took the sign away and didn't answer her, but said very seriously that he should leave quickly and don't stay here any longer.

It was the first time that Hang Si saw him serious after a whole night of acquaintance. Anyway, the flowers were almost pinched, so he nodded without saying a word.The way back was easy to find, Hang Si left behind to make a mark, the sky gradually became clearer, and with the mark, there was no need to worry about getting lost.

The two of them walked through the lush greenery one after the other, the wind rustled in their ears constantly, occasionally mixed with unknown howls.The sky is about to break out, and everything is awakened. Perhaps the day here is more dangerous than the night.

Hang Si's foot slipped when he walked halfway like this, but before he fell, Lu Nanshen caught him in time.Hang Si was stunned, what kind of hand speed and reaction is this?
Lu Nan asked how she was?
It was not injured, but the ankle bone was chromed by the stone, and it still hurt when I exerted strength.

"If you can go, don't delay." Hang Si said simply and neatly.

Lu Nan lowered his eyes slightly, his thin and beautiful shallow folds hid a half-smile.He asked, "What about running?"

"Run?" Hang Si was puzzled.

Did some beast catch up?Just as he was about to look around, he saw Lu Nan squatting down, with his broad back facing her, "Come up, I'll carry you."

ha?
"Do you need to be in such a hurry?" Hang Si looked at the man in front of him, looking at the thin man with a strong back.

"Need." Lu Nanshen gestured to her slightly, "Go back later, I'm afraid that Nian Baixiao will be eaten by wild beasts."

"Ah? Your brother."

Lu Nanshen: ...
