Across the Ancients: Wild Beastman Haunted

Chapter 67 The Harmful Things

Chapter 67 The Harmful Things

Chi Zhenzhen stood by the fire and watched Luo Gu walking towards her, his little heart was beating wildly.

She was very nervous. On the one hand, she was nervous about the result, and on the other hand, she was nervous whether he would tell her the result truthfully.

"Little thing, are you tired?" Luo Gu walked in front of her, his voice softened a lot.

"It's okay." Chi Zhenzhen frowned slightly, not knowing why he would ask such a question.

"Okay, come out with me." After finishing speaking, he fished out a fluffy animal skin and put it on her shoulders, "Go and have a look behind."

"Behind?" Chi Zhen thumped in his heart, it seemed that he was going to tell the truth, "Where is this behind? Is it some dangerous place?"

Luo Gu hummed, but didn't say much.

Out of habit, Chi Zhenzhen still brought a flashlight with him.

As soon as he got out of the cave, Luo Gu directly turned into a beast shape, and Chi Zhenzhen rode on his back and pulled his long hair tightly. It seems that this place called 'back' is not close yet.

No, this place should be near the Baili tribe, it is impossible for those children to go so far without telling the adults.

The night wind howled on her body, and Chi Zhenzhen tried her best to bury herself in the long hair to avoid the cold. I hope she has good resistance and won't be blown down by the wind again.

Sure enough, Luo Gu stopped quickly, and it seemed that he had reached the 'behind'.

Chi Zhenzhen jumped off the back of Luo Gu who had turned into a human form, and the surroundings were pitch black, which could almost be described as not seeing his fingers.

"Where is this?" Chi Zhenzhen grabbed his arm with one hand, and took out the flashlight with the other hand and pressed it on.

As soon as the flashlight came out, she finally had a clearer look at the place.

At this moment, they should be on a relatively flat lawn, surrounded by no trees, and looking farther away, it is the darkness that even the flashlight cannot illuminate.

"Those five children have eaten a blue fruit here." Luo Gu pricked up his ears to watch his surroundings, and his eyes were a little curious about the things in her hand, he didn't expect it to be so bright.

"Blue fruit?" Chi Zhenzhen turned around with a flashlight, and there wasn't even a tree near them. Where did the fruit come from?And it's blue.

Luo Gu hummed, held her hand instead and walked forward.

Chi Zhenzhen walked very carefully, for fear that something terrible would pop up in this dark night.

But she looked at Luo Gu differently, he didn't have any expression of fear except vigilance, as if this was his territory no matter who broke in it would be a dead end.

It is precisely because of his imposing manner that Chi Zhenzhen also has the courage.

"So you brought me here at night to look for that blue fruit? Maybe that blue fruit is what makes children sick." Chi Zhenzhen said while using a flashlight to illuminate the lawn.

In such a dark night, it is not easy to find a fruit with the naked eye.

However, just after thinking this way, Luo Gu's pace suddenly became faster, heading towards a certain place.

Chi Zhenzhen was really afraid that he could not see the way clearly, so she showed him the way with a flashlight until she saw several fruits in the place where the flashlight illuminated.

"Is this the blue fruit that the children said?" She broke away from Luo Gu's hand and held up a flashlight to take a closer look.

There are several palm-sized fruits hidden in the deeper lawn. Although it is dark, you can still vaguely see that the fruit is blue, and the blue color is very abnormal.

"Don't move!" Chi Zhenzhen let out a low voice, and slapped away Luo Gu's hand that was about to reach in to pick up the fruit, "What if it's poisonous?!"

Luo Gu withdrew his hand and glanced at her: "What is poison?"

"... Harmful things, now is not the time to explain this, let me do it." Chi Zhenzhen touched his pocket to see if there was anything that could wrap the blue fruit.

But before the thing could be found, Luo Gu snatched her flashlight and took out the fruit from the bushes first.

"You..." Chi Zhenzhen stared at him in astonishment.

"You are not allowed to touch such a dangerous thing." Luo Gu said seriously, "I would not have brought you here if I had known."

"..." She shouldn't talk too much, but for the sake of his concern, she said again, "What I said just now is just a hypothesis, and I should be more vigilant about unknown things."

Luo Gu directly ignored her words, and pointed at the fruit in his hand with the bright light instead: "This is an ordinary fruit."

"Really?" Chi Zhenzhen took out the bronze mirror and took a picture of the blue fruit.

Species: Silverfruit (plant)

Habits: The fruit of the silver tree is crisp in the mouth and juicy. It is recommended to eat it well, otherwise it tastes bitter and hard to swallow, and is non-toxic.

The period it belongs to: ancient times
Luo Gu glanced at the thing in her hand, there was nothing on it, but this little thing looked carefully.

"You're right. This is an ordinary fruit. Are you sure that the five children became unwell after eating this silver fruit?" Chi Zhenzhen asked back while holding the bronze mirror tightly.

"I haven't made sure of that sentence," he said.

Chi Zhenzhen frowned, and immediately realized that in Luo Gu's mind, she had gradually become useful, otherwise she would not have been brought here this evening.

And her purpose of coming here is also very simple, which is to find out the reason why these children are uncomfortable.

"Thank you for trusting me." Chi Zhenzhen smiled and spread his hands, "Show me the silver fruit."

"Look at it this way." Probably because he was taken aback by the poison she just said, Luo Gu refused her to touch the fruit.

"What do I think of you like this? Don't worry, you've touched it before, and you're fine now." Chi Zhenzhen continued to spread his hands, and if he didn't give it to her, he would grab it.

Luo Gu still hesitated, but Chi Zhenzhen had no choice but to take out another one from the grass.

Fortunately, Luo Gu didn't stop her, but kept his eyes firmly on her.

Chi Zhenzhen took a closer look at the fruit called Yinguo with the light of the flashlight in his hand: "Have you ever eaten this fruit? Are there any silver trees near here?"

"Not nearby, this fruit is not blue in the first place." Luo Gu said.

"It wasn't blue..." Chi Zhenzhen muttered a few words, focused on the top and bottom ends of the fruit, and found the clue, "This fruit has been dyed!"

Chi Zhenzhen took another photo with the bronze mirror, but unfortunately the content displayed on the bronze mirror is always silver fruit, and there is no introduction of this layer of blue things.

She picked up the grass again, and there were only two or three silver fruits here.

"Luo Gu, take another look at the silver fruits that haven't been dyed blue." Chi Zhenzhen said seriously.

Luo Gu hummed and gave her the flashlight.

"Wait!" Chi Zhenzhen took his hand, his serious expression collapsed a little bit, "You...you take the flashlight and look for it."

"I can see it," he said.

"Hold it if you can see it." Chi Zhenzhen forced the flashlight to him, "Take it and look for it, don't ask so many questions, go!"
