Chapter 365 Snake Hunting
"This is Houttuynia cordata." Ye Xinyi's face was pale, and he replied with a slight smile, "This Houttuynia cordata is the most abundant in Sichuan, and it usually grows in the fields or on dry land in the forest. It is really lucky to have these. Don’t think it tastes strange, but it is really a good thing. This Houttuynia cordata is cold in nature, can clear away heat and toxin, reduce swelling and dehumidification. For you now, It is a rare food and tonic medicinal material, it is said that people in Sichuan often eat it, and many people really like its taste, and they will miss it very much if they don't eat it for a few days."

Shen Yue's eyebrows frowned more and more tightly, looking at the milky white fish soup in the bamboo tube, but exuding a strange fishy smell, he swallowed quietly, "Could it be that Huan Huan'er just spent a day in this mountain, Should I drink the soup made from this stuff once?"

However, Ye Xinyi turned his head, and smiled at him with curved lips, his brows and eyes curved into a straight smile, and his cheeks swayed slightly, but it made the back of Shen Yue's neck feel a little chilly, "Who said that? You have to drink it up, not a single drop is left. The houttuynia root boiled in this soup is also yours, and I won’t snatch it from you.”

Shen Yue suddenly understood that she was taking the opportunity to punish him.For what?Naturally, it was because he accidentally suffered such a serious injury this time.Shen Yue suddenly regretted it, if he knew this, he should have noticed the arrow that was shot, and hid farther away instead of just avoiding the vital point.

But right now, it seems that it is too late to regret.

Ye Xinyi stared at him with almond eyes as clear as the morning dew, with a sly smile in his eyes, "Eat it! Why don't you eat it? Eat it while it's hot, and we have to hurry. Didn't you say it, you You didn’t eat anything when you were young, you treat this fish soup as medicine, good medicine tastes bitter, what else can’t you eat?”

Shen Yue wanted to cry, but he didn't really cry. In the end, he also knew that although Ye Xinyi was suspected of punishing him deliberately, he really wanted to heal his injury.Thinking of this, he braced himself, felt that the fish soup was cool enough to eat, so he held his breath, and drank the fish soup in one gulp.

The expressions and movements were very tragic, and a smile flickered in Ye Xinyi's eyes.

He also graciously greeted him to eat the Houttuynia root in the soup.

I've already had the soup, so it's okay to chew some grass roots.With a expressionless face, Shen Yue swallowed tears into his stomach, holding the mood of seeing death as home, and emptied his thoughts, just pretending that he was a wooden man without feelings, chewed the root of that pot of grass, and swallowed it.

Ye Xinyi finally lenient and let him go.He changed the medicine again, fed the medicine, and the two had almost rested before continuing to trek forward in the mountains.

I don't know where to go for the time being, let's go wherever we go first!

But without following behind, the two of them don't need to be exhausted, walking for a while, resting for a while, it's not too tired.

It's just that they waited until the sun had already set to the west, but they still couldn't find a place to stay. Fortunately, the weather today is considered good, even if they sleep in the mountains, it's okay.

Seeing that it was getting late, it was time for them to have dinner.

Ye Xinyi found a leeward spot in the forest, and hastily sorted out a place for Shen Yue to rest for a while, so she took the Qinghong Sword and wandered deep into the forest to see if she could find some food.

It's just that the luck this time is obviously not good.

After wandering around for a while, Ye Xinyi only found some berries and two bushes of mushrooms that could satisfy his hunger.Mushrooms can be eaten roasted or boiled in soup, but the taste of the berries is sour and astringent. Although it is non-toxic, the taste is really not good.

It didn't matter to her, but Shen Yue had an injury on his body, so he had to find a way to make him eat better, so that the injury could heal quickly.

Just turning her head and looking around, it was already dark, so she had no choice but to go back.

Walking back along the mark she had carved on the tree when she came, but at this moment, she heard a rustling sound. A light flashed across Ye Xinyi's eyes, and she suddenly turned her head towards the person who heard the sound. look in the direction.

In fact, it was quite a distance away, but it was because of her good hearing that she heard it.

Between the dead leaves and grass, there was a slender shadow sprinting by. It was a cauliflower snake. It looked as thick as a woman's wrist, enough for her and Shen Yue to eat.

Ye Xinyi couldn't help but smile slightly, staring at the snake in that direction, while walking lightly, step by step.

Seeing that the snake crawled towards a small soil bag near the left, where the rocks were nestled, it was the place where snakes often choose to nest.

Are you going home?
Ye Xinyi naturally couldn't tolerate it.Turning her almond eyes, her feet lightened, her body bounced up like a swallow, stepped on the nearby treetops, and floated in the direction of the snake. After staying two steps closer, the Qinghong sword in her hand came out. The sheath, in the hand, is about to be thrown out...

But he suddenly felt that something was wrong, he stepped on the branch, drew the long sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword pointed back to the left.

There were several boulders there, and there was a person standing on top of one of them. In the darkening sky, only a vague silhouette could be seen, but it was in the posture of bowing and nodding an arrow.Almost at the same time that Ye Xinyi's sword pointed straight at the past, he heard a "swoosh", and the sharp arrow shot through the air, but it was not in Ye Xinyi's direction.

Ye Xinyi's eyes followed the sharp arrow, seeing that the sharp arrow had submerged in the weeds and dead leaves, the arrow feather trembled slightly, and hit the ground for three points, and under the arrow, a snake's tail struggled and "slapped" around. After a moment, it suddenly froze, and it fell heavily. The arrow shot down, and it was firmly nailed to the cauliflower snake just now.

Ye Xinyi stood on the tree, not moving, but turned his head and looked back to the left.

The man had already jumped off the boulder, and then strode towards the snake.

As they walked, they got closer, and Ye Xinyi could see the figure and face of the man clearly, his brows furrowed, and a gleam of suspicion flashed in his eyes, it was him?

The man had already taken the snake and held it with his hands. He also pulled the arrow out of the ground, wiped it and put it back into the quiver on his back with his backhand. He turned his head and headed towards Ye Xinyi's direction. Come.

After Ye Xinyi pondered for a while, he lowered his foot, and his body was as light as a swallow, and he fell lightly from the treetop, and his toes landed on the ground, almost silently.

The man was stunned, and a light flashed in his eyes. He stopped a few steps away from Ye Xinyi, and cupped his hands towards Ye Xinyi. I'm so disrespectful."

He speaks Chinese, but the accent is not too strong.

Ye Xinyi slightly raised his eyebrows, suppressing all kinds of thoughts in his eyes, "I'm married, so it's inappropriate to call you a girl again. My husband's family name is Shen. According to the rules of our Han people, you can call me Mrs. Shen!"

"Mrs. Shen!" The man's expression straightened again, and while responding, he handed the cauliflower snake to Ye Xinyi and said, "This snake is non-venomous. The snake's gall can be used as medicine, and the snake's meat is even worse." It's delicious, but it's much tastier than that fruit."
