Chapter 144
The poisonous scorpions were thrown into the deep ditch one by one.

Everyone was still standing there staring blankly, at this moment Xuanyu had already rushed to the deep ditch with his men and threw the torch into it.

In an instant, flames erupted in the deep ditch.

Because there were too many poisonous scorpions, many of them climbed up the stone wall.

Xuan Yu and the others guarded the top, repelling them before they climbed up.

Ru Xiaonan turned her head to look at Cai Yiming and the others who were standing there in a daze, "Hey, do you want to come over and help?"

Only then did everyone come to their senses, and stepped forward to help in a cold sweat.

The fierce oil burned extremely fiercely, and the flames burned through half the sky.

Even so, when the fire was extinguished, everyone's tired clothes were still drenched with sweat.

"It seems that we will be able to enter the valley and retrieve those herb pickers before dawn."

The people in Qingshui Village were very excited, and even Cai Yiming and the others had reaped a lot.

Even if the poisonous scorpions were burned to death, their tail needles could still be used as medicine, so they wished they hadn't brought a few more carriages this trip.

Before the arrival of the second watch, the fire in the deep ditch was extinguished.

Ru Xiaonan yawned and drooped her head listlessly.

She had no reaction to the excitement of the crowd.

"When will we enter the valley?" The people in Qingshui village can't wait to find their people back immediately.

"You have to wait until dawn anyway." Cai Yiming looked at the sky. The miasma in the valley was too heavy at night, and it would be relieved after the sun rose, but it would not disappear completely.

"Then wait until dawn before setting off." Qing Moyan carried Ru Xiaonan directly to find a place to rest.

Because it will be dawn in a few more hours, there is no time to set up tents, and everyone sits on the ground.

Someone lit a bonfire, and arranged for people to take turns to watch.

Ru Xiaonan didn't care who was on guard, her saliva flowed out from sleeping on Qing Moyan's body.

Qing Moyan looked helplessly at her drenched sleeves, not feeling sleepy at all.

I don't know if the only herb picker who knows the whereabouts of the ghost grass is still alive.

After dawn, everyone ate something in a hurry and prepared to enter the valley.

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome, just send a few people in and bring them out." Ru Xiaonan still looked like she was not awake, her hair was messy and loose, draped over her shoulders.

"This valley is very deep, and there are several forks in the road. It's hard to say where they will hide." The people in Qingshui Village explained that after the battle last night, they no longer looked down on the little girl in front of them as much as they did at first.

"Then let me see if they are still alive." Ru Xiaonan pulled herself together, "Qing Moyan, where is the thing I want?"

Qing Moyan looked at the people in Qingshui village, "Before we set off, I asked the village master to bring something, did you bring it?"

"By the way, there is such a thing." Someone took out a square handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Xuanyu.

Xuanyu delivered the things to Ru Xiaonan.

Ru Xiaonan carefully opened the veil, and there were a few strands of hair inside.

This is the hair of the herbal picker they were looking for.

Ru Xiaonan took out a talisman, folded it into the shape of a bird, then pinched a hair and stuffed it into the origami.

Pinching with one hand, "Get up!"

The paper bird flew up.

Although the speed is not fast, but the flight is very stable.

Everyone watched the paper bird fly higher and higher, and finally flew away along the path on the south side.

"That man is still alive." Ru Xiaonan said, "He's in that direction." She pointed to the small road on the side of the guide.

"Xuanyu, take a few people to find him." Qing Moyan ordered.

"Let Qianshang go too." Ru Xiaonan said as she folded another bird, then tore one from her hair, stuffed it inside the paper bird, and handed it to Xuanyu.

"After you find someone, if you get lost, let this paper bird fly, and follow it to come back."

Xuanyu cupped his hands in thanks, and took the paper bird.

Cai Yiming couldn't help looking at the paper bird in Xuanyu's hand, and said in surprise: "Who is Miss Ru, who can do such strange magic?"

However, his question did not get any answer.

Qing Moyan acted as if she didn't hear it.

In the end, Ru Xiaonan smiled at him, "I don't remember the past."

"Amnesia" is indeed the most perfect explanation in this world, the most standard answer enough to bury all doubts.

Xuanyu entered the valley with Qianshang and six dead men.

Cai Yiming and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.

That little girl has already talked about this point, and if they follow in, even they themselves feel that it will be a drag.

They had seen Qianshang's skills before, even if they were tied together, they didn't have the confidence to have that kind of skill, so everyone learned to be good this time, and they all obeyed the arrangement honestly.

Everyone waited until noon, when a paper bird flew out of the valley.

"Come back, come back!" Someone yelled.

Cai Yiming stood up and saw Xuanyu and others in the distance. They were carrying two stretchers made of wooden sticks and canes, followed by four herbal pickers carrying medicine baskets.

The people from Qingshui Village went up to meet them.

Qing Moyan stood on the spot without moving, but her gaze was fixed on Xuanyu.

Xuanyu supported a herbal picker with one hand, and came towards him.

"This is... the benefactor who rescued us?" The herbal picker gave Qing Moyan a deep salute.

Xuanyu said: "His name is Fu Quanshan, and he is the one who has seen ghost grass before."

Qing Moyan remained calm, only Ru Xiaonan noticed that Qing Moyan's body relaxed.

Anyway, finally found an insider.

On the way back to Qingshui Village, Qing Moyan invited Fu Quanshan to the carriage, and the two had a long talk.

Hearing that Qing Moyan wanted to buy ghost grass at a high price, Fu Quanshan shook his head repeatedly, "I also know that this thing is valuable, but the place where it grows is deep in the mountains and jungles, and its shimmering light can only be seen at night, and That is the territory of Mrs. Poison, we sneaked in last time."

"Who is Mrs. Poison?" Qing Moyan was slightly surprised.

He sent people here several times to look for ghost grass, but he had never heard of such a name.

Fu Quanshan said: "You are outsiders, so naturally you don't know, Mrs. Poison has been with us for many years, no one knows how old she is, only that she was originally from the Jianghu, and she was good at poison. I don't know why I settled here, because she has amazing power, and we don't have government intervention here, so no matter what happens, we will go to Mrs. Du to uphold justice."

"That is to say... she is the boss of your place?" Ru Xiaonan blinked.

Fu Quanshan smiled awkwardly, "You can also say that."

"So she took all the areas where the ghost weeds were produced by herself, and didn't let others in?" Ru Xiaonan's eyes sparkled. This way.

Fu Quanshan lowered his head, "More than ten years ago, a few people in our village accidentally entered the territory of the poisonous lady because they lost their way in the deep mountains, and found a ghost weed, but they were bloodbathed before they came back. I left the stockade, and from then on, I swore that I would never try to hunt ghost grass again."

What he said made Qing Moyan fall into silence.

After finally finding the clue of the ghost grass, is it going to be broken like this?
