Chapter 294 Fortunately, he is fine

294 Chapter 294 Fortunately, he is fine
Wu Xie was furious at the moment, his eyes were very stern. What he said just now was so sudden that I couldn't help but shudder. I must not talk back to him. In addition, the people around here are very problematic and cannot talk casually. The most important thing at the moment was to check the little brother's injury first, so I said to them: "This is not the place to talk. Let's find a place to check the little brother's injury first."

Looking at the little brother who was being burned by the fire, I felt worried and uncomfortable. Although he had wrapped himself in mud, which was somewhat protective, he was still smoking when he came out. The fire was so intense. With the temperature so high, he would definitely be injured, but as for himself, after saying those few words, he started thinking about things in a daze again, not caring about his injuries at all.

At this time, someone nearby shouted to Wu Xie: "Take him to the village office to find a doctor quickly. The burns can be major or minor. No one lives in that house. How can we learn to save people?"

Wu Xie found a child who was watching and asked him to help us lead the way to the village office. When we arrived, the child said to us: "You guys wait, I will call the doctor." Then he ran away to call us. People.

When Wu Xie looked at us, he remembered the scene just now, and couldn't help complaining: "Meng Youping, can you stop being so indifferent in the future? Even though I didn't see the photo, I feel regretful. If I had known it would happen, If something like this happened, I would rather be caught and beaten on the spot than go and see it first, but after all, it is just a photo, a dead thing, and you can't joke with your own life."

I haven't fully recovered from the shock just now. I feel a little dazed. Many clues and pictures are constantly turning in my mind. It's like a slideshow in front of me. They are all pictures. My mind is extremely chaotic. But when I listened to what Wu Xie said, I thought it made sense, and I couldn't help but whisper: "That's right."

When Wu Xie heard what I said, he turned to glare at me and said, "That's what it is. He didn't say you were, right?"

Wu Xie was talking in an extremely stern tone and started to slap me. I suddenly felt a chill coming from my back and I was clenching my little hands so nervously.

Wu Xie said: "The fat man told you not to go there, what have you heard in those ears?"

I was a little unconvinced and muttered in a low voice: "The fat man didn't let you go, so didn't you rush over too?"

Wu Xie was so angry that his eyes suddenly widened and he said, "You..."

Before he could say anything, the fat man stopped him: "Oh, oh, oh, stop being annoying, be careful of people listening, and be quiet."

Wu Xie thought the same thing, so he had to shut up, but now he was angry, and his heart was so congested that he couldn't breathe. I saw that his face turned pale with anger, but he still endured it. I also understood the reasons why he was angry. One was the photo. The message was cut off, and the other one was not worried about me because I was worried about him, so I shook him and said to him: "Brother Wu Xie, things are already like this. Let's think of other ways to calm down."

We were all silent after that. The younger brother had been in a daze and thought about something. He didn't even react when he was injured, and the atmosphere around him seemed to be frozen.

Many people were injured while putting out the fire, and they came here one after another. Later, a barefoot doctor came and treated the wounds of the injured with herbs.

After examination, the little brother was in good condition. The mud he applied in advance acted as a thermal insulation. Although he had many burns, they were not serious. Only his left hand was slightly burned.

This barefoot doctor prepared a very smelly herbal medicine for burns and applied it to them. I watched him apply it to the little brother slowly and calmly. The room was filled with the strange smell of this medicine. It was very strange. It smelled bad, so I covered my mouth and nose and looked at him.

He said with a smile: "You may not be used to the smell, but this medicine works. As long as you insist on changing the medicine, there won't be any scars.

Mountain fires occur frequently here in summer, and villagers have had a lot of experience with burns since ancient times.

There is a legend here that once there was a beautiful teenage girl who was traveling here and happened to encounter a fire in the mountains. "

I asked: "The fire in the mountains, are you talking about Yangjiao Mountain? I heard someone mentioned it a few days ago."

He nodded and said: "Yes, it's Sheep's Foot Mountain. It happened to happen that the emperor was fighting a war and was caught in a mountain fire. At that time, most of the mountain was burned and many people were burned to death. She saved some people in the old village in the valley. Man, at that time she brought a herb that was much more powerful than this. It could treat any internal or external injury.

That herbal medicine is said to be made from a red flower, but no one has seen what the flower looks like, or even knows what kind of flower it is. I only heard that it smells fragrant, tastes sweet and delicious, and has medicinal effects. Miraculously, just like this little brother's injury, he could get better in less than a day, and the more serious injury on his left hand could also be cured within three days.

However, there was no way to grow this kind of medicine in the environment here, so she left some for those who survived. I heard that those who had trauma recovered without any scars at all, and those who were originally weak also became healthy, and even Some people even cured the chronic diseases of many years ago. The girl came in a hurry and left in a hurry. No one noticed when she came and when she left. Her whereabouts were quite mysterious. It was said that she was a fairy who came down to earth specially. To save them.

I heard that a similar medicinal material appeared in the legend a few decades ago, and at the same time, a beautiful girl aged [-] or [-] appeared. At that time, some people asked whether it was the fairy who came to help them again. "

I thought to myself, no matter what I heard, I thought he was talking about me... But I didn't have the slightest impression, so I smiled and asked, "Have you ever seen that kind of medicine?"

He shook his head and said with a smile: "Is that true? I just heard that it's time to apply it and don't touch the water."

I nodded and said, "Yeah, I know, thank you."

I said to myself, it's a good thing you don't know about the Glazed Pill, otherwise people would have discovered the smell of Glazed Pill on my body. Since I was roasted at high temperature just now, the aroma of Kirin Blood on my body has become much stronger. , just like the faint lingering fragrance left by the perfume I sprayed, it seems to be there or not. In the past, the fragrance guy could smell it from the distance when he held me. Now, people who are about one meter away from me should be able to smell it. It’s just It was temporarily covered up by the smell of herbs that filled the room.

I looked at the little brother who was covered in medicine and said softly to him: "Are you feeling better?"

He looked at me blankly, and I said to him again: "Did you tell me not to be impulsive? You scared me to death just now." Then I brushed his messy hair and continued: "There will be new clues. Yes, stop being so careless about your body." As he said this, he quietly took out my little pill and handed it to his mouth. He obediently opened his mouth and took it in.

After that, we walked to Agui's house together. None of them said anything along the way, so I stayed silent.

When we returned to Agui's house, Liyue already knew that something had happened. She had prepared all the things we needed to change, but she didn't say anything when she saw that the atmosphere was a bit delicate.Wu Xie and Fatty got water to clean themselves. I took my little brother back to the house and quietly used spiritual power to clean and change our clothes.

When Wu Xie touched his eyebrows, his hair was so burnt that it fell down. It was so miserable.

After tidying up, we all sat together. The younger brother fell into silence completely. Wu Xie blamed the fat man and said to him: "If you hadn't said to come back first, we would have gone in and taken out the photos. There wouldn't have been any Now it’s about this.”

The fat man immediately got angry and said, "Fuck!" "How can you blame me? Since someone set fire to it, we must have been targeted long ago, and something will happen sooner or later. This time it is an old house that was burned. If we look at If you look at the photos, we might be the ones they burned. And in that situation, no one would bravely go in. You must be too brave to crawl into someone’s house in broad daylight.”

What the fat man said was not wrong at all, and Wu Xie naturally understood it, but he became even more angry. His expression at that moment could be described as ferocious. I huddled up tightly and hid beside my little brother, not daring to say a word. Then I heard "bang bang bang" Wu Xie banged his head against the wall a few times, and the suffocation in his stomach eased a little.

The fat man clicked his tongue and said to him: "I think we just can't do anything about this. I guess the damn thing has been planned a long time ago, otherwise we wouldn't be so unlucky. I think that lunatic who stole the box may have been pretended by someone else." Yes, he was also one of the arsonists. You think he made so much noise when he stole the box, and even deliberately knocked on the floor to attract our attention. He must have lured us out." He paused and continued: "Then he Our accomplices are outside. Once we go out and see them, we will definitely not dare to go in again. As soon as we leave, they will set fire to the house... Damn, that must be what happened."

Wu Xie nodded and said, "So, they probably discovered us temporarily and lured us out out of desperation. If they had known about our plan earlier, they would have taken measures long ago and not be so eager and extreme.

But if this is the case, then the people who set the fire were probably the villagers who were watching us on the hillside at that time... Who were they?I've never met them, and they're not supposed to know me. "

The fat man said: "They definitely don't know what we are looking for. If they know that we are looking for photos, they can just take away the photos and burn them. There is no need to burn the whole house. But these people are not smart either. I don’t believe we can’t do anything with them. Do you still remember what they look like?”

Wu Xie thought for a moment and said, "I have some vague impressions, but I can't recognize everything from such a long distance, so it will definitely be difficult." He sighed.

Wu Xie looked at the little brother and said, "If Menyou Ping hadn't suddenly thought of that box, we would have seen the photo directly, and this situation wouldn't have happened. But in this case, the box would have been buried in the burning Under the scorched ruins, there will never be a chance to emerge.

This can be considered a mistake or not. We did not completely fail. There is always a way out, and as soon as this house burned down, we knew one thing. Someone in this village must know something, and it will not be an ordinary thing. , anyway, this is a clue.

However, I don’t know if those people will take action next and whether they will take action against us. "

The fat man said: "They probably won't kill us, otherwise there is no need to burn down the house, just kill us. But we still have to be careful. We must be more cautious in the future. I will go find something for self-defense." After that, he went Agui took some sickles from the yard and hid them under the bed for self-defense. He also made some cups and hung them on the doors and windows. They would fall down and make a sound when the doors and windows moved.

The fat man said: "Let's not separate the inner and outer rooms. Let's stay here."

Wu Xie added: "I have a premonition."

The fat man asked, "What?"

"Since someone is obstructing us, Agui's help in finding that old guide may also go wrong. Some people don't want us to continue investigating."

The fat man said: "One step at a time. Oh, girl, it's normal for him not to say anything. You are not usually very analytical, so come and analyze it."

I looked at them and said, “There are indeed people here who are watching this, but it’s definitely not just one group of people.

Although our action was decided on the spur of the moment, we were already being targeted from the moment we entered the village. Perhaps there were already good people ambushed here when Third Uncle asked Bald Chu to inquire, or perhaps there was something important here. Something, someone has been lurking here for decades.

The people who are targeting us know what we want to investigate, but they don't know what we want specifically. I think the people who are preventing us from discovering the secret are not the same people as those who robbed us. "

Wu Xie asked: "Are you talking about those who set the fire and those who robbed the box, or are there two groups of people?"

I thought about it and said with certainty: "Yes." I was stunned and said again: "The person who set the fire didn't want to hurt us, but he didn't want us to continue the investigation. He was not necessarily an enemy.

If the person who stole the box didn't know what was in the box and just robbed it because we were there, just to stop us from investigating, then he might be the same group of people who set the fire.

But if he knows exactly what is in the box and just wants to steal the box, or if he wants the contents of the box, then he can only be an enemy. "

Wu Xie and Fatty just listened to me seriously, and no one said a word for a long time.

The fat man was stunned for a while and suddenly said: "By the way, apart from this, the little fairy that appeared in Yangjiao Mountain that the doctor mentioned today sounds very familiar to me, as if I have encountered it somewhere."

Wu Xie looked at the fat man and said, "If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten about it. It sounds very familiar to me. Besides, it looks very much like the same person."

They followed them and looked at me, but they didn't know that when they mentioned this matter, I had quietly shrunk to the side of the little brother and hid, and the little brother was caressing me.

They looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
