The concubine is poisonous

Chapter 175 Heavy casualties
Outside Nightless Valley, there are dozens of figures whispering and discussing outside the valley. They passed through two poisonous forests and a swamp. There were originally a hundred brothers, but now there are less than 60 left.

Before entering the mountain, the team of 100 people was still intact. In less than two days, half of the people were killed or injured. Everyone looked at a new poisonous fog forest in front of them, hesitating whether to move forward.

One of them said: "Brother, I don't know how far we can go to find Gu Xinning's whereabouts, but our brothers are running out. If we continue to consume like this, even if we do find Gu Xinning, I'm afraid no one will be able to make a move." gone."

The man in black who took the lead frowned and pondered. He recalled the scene of his brothers falling in front of him one by one in the past few days.

The first day was the most tragic day. On that day, everyone was unprepared. When Brother Baishi climbed over the mountain vigorously, he saw a small forest. There seems to be a thin layer of mist between the branches and leaves.

At first, everyone paid no attention to it, thinking that it was just an ordinary mist in the mountains. Just now, within a moment of stepping into the small forest, some people fell down one after another screaming in pain.

At this time, everyone realized that the fog in the forest is poisonous. Some of the remaining people ran hard with my nose, and some tore off a piece of cloth from their bodies, soaked it in urine, and covered their noses. There are also some detoxification pills that I don't know where I got them, and I poured them into my mouth. In short, everyone is trying their best to save their lives.

Fortunately, the forest was not big. After running nervously for a while, everyone rushed out of the small forest, but only 15 people managed to escape in time. After the 85 people ran out, they fell one after another. Four people got off, and only 81 people were able to continue on the road in the end.

In order to finish the task entrusted by the master as soon as possible, everyone did not dare to remember much. After hastily burying the bodies of the four people, they continued to look for Gu Xinning's whereabouts.

When they were not far away, they came across a swamp. The swamp was not very big. This skilled companion tried to make a leap. With their skills, they could basically jump over it at once, but among them, Not everyone has this level of qinggong.

After eight people in succession were devoured because they couldn't jump the swamp, the elder brother who took the lead stopped everyone's movements and ordered someone to chop some wood and throw them into the swamp, hoping to use the buoyancy of the wood to help them on the way. Those who were not very good at lightness kung fu held on, but to his disappointment, after falling into the swamp so quickly, they sank instantly.

The heart of the elder brother who took the lead almost sank. It seems that this is a swamp that does not float. got an idea.

The younger brother's idea is to untie the belts of everyone, tie them together, and connect them to a long rope. Someone who is good at lightness will pull one end and pull it to the opposite side. Pull up the other end and tighten the two sides to form a cloth bridge. In this way, people who are not good at lightness can use the force of the rope to add force once or twice in the middle, so that they can pass smoothly .

Then leave a few people with good lightness skills here to finish off, and after the people with bad lightness skills pass by, the remaining people with good lightness skills can jump over by themselves.

Relying on this method, the team of 73 people finally passed through the swamp with no fewer people.However, the victory was only temporary, and soon, they faced a new poisonous fog forest.

With the experience and lessons learned from last time, no one is rushing in this time. Everyone looked at the mist surrounding the leaves and looked around and found that this small forest was much larger than the one they encountered before. If you can't run over in time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be comprehensive.

At that time, it was the morning of the second day after everyone entered the periphery of Nightless Valley. After hesitating for a while, the leader brother said to wait to see if the fog would dissipate. Maybe it was just fog in the morning, and it would dissipate by noon.However, just to be on the safe side, the elder brother who took the lead asked someone to look nearby to see if there were any other passages, or some way to get through.

Time soon arrived at noon, and the fog in the forest was still there. It didn't decrease at all. The teams sent out to search also came back one after another. They also didn't find any other passages, and they didn't find anything usable to resist the poison of the fog.

In the end, I had no choice but to pick out two people with the best lightness skills, and let them cross the dense forest at the fastest speed to see if they could pass smoothly, but both of them died one after another before they reached half the distance on the way.

Then the big brother who took the lead, after thinking about it for a while, asked everyone to try again with the method they had tried before, or wet the rag with urine, or eat the elixir they prepared, etc., but the results were not satisfactory. People were satisfied, and soon a dozen more people fell down.

Just when everyone was at a loss, they suddenly discovered that a little rabbit ran past in the forest. The little rabbit was not hurt and ran from one end to the other. Of course, a mere little rabbit can't be detoxified, so how did he do it? What about avoiding the poisonous fog?

Everyone began to fall into a discussion, and finally a younger brother mentioned something. The father of this younger brother used to be a cook. He once told himself that if you pour oil into a pot of water, the oil will float on it, and it will not sink to the bottom. go below.

According to this inference, everyone discussed it and thought that it is very likely that the toxins contained in the fog in the mountain forest should float on it, while the lower part close to the ground should be just ordinary fog and not poisonous.

In order to try this conclusion, the leading brother sent a person to kneel on the ground and crawl forward. Sure enough, this person successfully reached the opposite side and passed through the woods while crawling forward.

Everyone jumped for joy, imitating the man's appearance, crawling forward one after another, and finally passed the woods smoothly.After all passed through the woods, the leading brother counted the number of 54 survivors.

The leading brother, looking at the brother in front of him, couldn't help frowning, and said secretly: "Fuck, I don't know how much danger is ahead, I will consume it, how can I get it?" But as the leading brother, you need to take care of everyone The morale of the army, these words can only be said in my own heart, and cannot be said in front of everyone.

However, when facing the third poisonous forest, even if he doesn't say anything, others have basically thought of this issue. Now some of his brothers have started to raise this issue, and right now, his subordinates can only There are 53 people left.

Not long ago, when everyone saw the third poisonous forest, they thought it was the same as the previous one, and they only needed to crawl forward to pass through. A little brother couldn't wait to show it, so he squatted down first, Climbed into the forest.

But not long after he entered the forest, other people were about to kneel down. When he passed by, they suddenly heard a scream. With a shrill scream, it was as if something was tightly strangling his throat, his hands were clasped tightly around his neck, his eyes were protruding, black blood dripped from his seven orifices, and he fell to the ground.

Seeing this, everyone immediately stood up, stopped and looked at each other, looking at the scene in front of them in shock.I don't know how deep is still ahead, and I don't know how many checkpoints to go through. If we go deeper like this, I believe it won't be long. The remaining 50 people in this area may be wiped out at any time.

The little brothers turned their attention to the leader, hoping that the leader could come up with some ways to overcome the difficulties in front of him.But they also saw the same confusion and bewilderment in the eyes of the leading brother.The leader's concern suddenly receded from the leader's body, and there was no brilliance to radiate.

Just when everyone was in a daze, the elder brother in the lead suddenly became aware of a strange movement not far behind him, so the elder brother in the lead turned around quickly, and the other people also looked puzzled when they saw the appearance of the elder brother in charge , then turned around and looked in the direction the leading brother was looking at.

A huge stone was reflected in everyone's eyes. This stone, everyone passed by him just now, has no other special features except for its huge size. Everyone doesn't understand why the big brother who takes the lead is looking at this stone so intently. Stone, can this stone help everyone pass through the woods?
Just when everyone was puzzled, they suddenly heard the big brother in the lead yell, "Who is it? Come out for me."

Hearing what the leader said, everyone realized that it was because the leader found someone behind the stone, so he suddenly became interested in this stone, not because he could use this stone to pass through the woods. Everyone couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, but at the same time He became nervous again, and stared at the boulder intently, because no one knew whether the person hiding behind the stone was a companion, an enemy, or maybe not even a person at all. In such a gloomy and treacherous place, any kind of danger could exist , what is impossible to happen, can happen.

Almost everyone has their hearts in their throats, their foreheads are covered with cold sweat, and their hands are gradually resting on their weapons, waiting for the leader to give an order, or when something unexpected happens suddenly, so that they can fight in time. respond.

However, after the shouting of the leading brother fell, there was no movement behind the stone, and everyone turned their attention to the leading brother. Although they didn't speak, their eyes were full of doubts.

Everyone seems to be saying with their eyes: "Could it be that big brother is wrong? There is no one at all."

But the elder brother who took the lead obviously believed in his own judgment. Seeing that the person behind the stone had not moved, he shouted again: "Come out if you are a hero, and compete with grandpa openly. If you hide your head and show your tail, what kind of hero is he?"

Seeing that the leading brother was so determined, everyone turned their eyes to the direction of the stone again, waiting in full force, staring at the huge rock in front of them intently.
