At the critical moment, Luo Chen protected him and Lu Xiaobai with spiritual talismans, and used his last spiritual energy to send the two away. The huge water ball flew into the air, rolled down the hillside, and disappeared in the dark mountain in an instant.

The villagers of Gumu Village collectively looked at Xiao Wu, "Village Chief, should we go after him?"

Xiao Wu shook his head. It was so dark and the mountain was so big. There was no way of knowing where Luo Chen and the two of them would fall. They might fall directly to their death along the hillside. Even if they didn't fall to death, in such an endless mountain, the two of them would When I wake up, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out, and I'll die of hunger and thirst in the mountains.

"Both of them were poisoned by my poison. Without my antidote, they cannot recover and will only die in the mountains."

…

The sun was shining brightly, and the chirping of birds in the forest echoed in the valley.

The quiet valley was inaccessible and full of wilderness atmosphere. No one could have imagined that there was a small wooden house in this wilderness, and bursts of smoke rose from outside the wooden house.

A large pot was filled with water. It gradually began to boil under the burning of firewood. Seeing the water boiling, a young couple worked together to lift the pot and walked around the wooden house to the backyard, where a bathtub was set up. The two poured hot water into the wooden bucket, then filled the pot with water and continued to add firewood to boil water.

They are the owners of the wooden house, the husband is Shi Jing and the wife is Murong.

Without saying a word, the two of them kept boiling and refilling water, filling the wooden bucket in the backyard with hot water. They were so busy that they were sweating profusely, but they still didn't stop. The wife began to take out various herbs from the house and poured them into the house. After putting them in the wooden bucket, the husband took out several medicine bottles and poured them evenly into the hot water. After soaking in the hot water, the bucket emitted a strong medicinal smell.

Then, the two returned to the wooden house, looked at the unconscious man and woman, and found that their arms and legs had begun to turn purple.

"The poison is getting deeper and deeper, hurry up and soak in the water."

After saying that, the husband left the room first.

The wife walked up to the girl, helped her take off her clothes, then picked up the petite body, went to the backyard, and soaked the girl in the water. Then the husband entered the house and soaked the boy in the barrel.

After finishing everything, the couple let out a long sigh of relief.

I don’t know how long it took, but in the evening as the sun gradually set, the couple began to busy themselves with dinner.

Luo Chen woke up from endless fatigue. He found that he was soaked in a wooden barrel, his whole body was hot, and he even felt some burning pain. What surprised him even more was that Lu Xiaobai was lying in his arms. Asleep in a coma.

He was startled and struggled to get out.

"Wait, you can't go out."

"Who are you……"

In front of him was a young man with dark skin and clear eyes. Luo Chen felt that the man was about the same age as himself.

Shi Jing introduced himself. He and his wife Mu Rong were indeed young, the same age as Luo Chen. The young couple lived in seclusion in the mountains. At noon, Shi Jing went to chop firewood and accidentally bumped into a coma by the river. The two Luo Chens rescued them.

"Then the two of us are..."

"You have been poisoned by centipede poison. You must soak in a medicine bucket to detoxify, otherwise you will become a useless person."

"Centipede poison? What do you know?"

Shi Jing sighed, "You two have been to Gumu Village, right."

"how do you know."

Shi Jing took his wife's hand and said, "I am also from Gumu Village."

Luo Chen said excitedly: "What is going on in Gumu Village?"

"My father... was the previous village chief of Gumu Village. Gumu Village is not an ordinary existence, but a village of insect masters hidden in the mountains. It has been passed down from generation to generation and has a history of hundreds of years."

"Pest breeder?"

"Yes, every family in the village has its own insect-raising skills. In the past, the entire village made a living by selling medicinal materials and rare insects, until fifteen years ago..."

Fifteen years ago, a group of people entered the village disguised as merchants collecting medicinal materials. In fact, they were mystical masters from the Central Plains and wanted to steal the treasures in the village. Because insects have been raised in Chongshi Village for hundreds of years, there are many family heirlooms. Poisonous insects are treasures that prolong life and can make a lot of money by selling them to rich people.

As a result, the gang's disguise was not good enough, and the villagers found out that they were not medicine sellers. They immediately started a fight, arrested many villagers on the spot, and threatened the village chief to hand over the treasures.

In order to protect the safety of the villagers, the village chief compromised with the bandits and handed over his scorpions to the other party. Unexpectedly, the gang went crazy and killed several villagers and escaped.

This incident made the villagers completely angry and wanted to go back to the Central Plains for revenge. The village chief tried his best to stop everyone. At this time, a young man named Xiao Wu stood up and led everyone to drive the village chief out and re-established the rules. In view of those outsiders with evil intentions, Xiao Wu was elected as the new village chief.

The village chief was Shi Jing's father, and he took him out of the village and began to live in seclusion in the mountains.

"No... Xiaowu looks like a young man now."

"It's true that the insect master's secret technique can prolong life. Xiao Wu relies on his insect-raising skills to keep his appearance unchanged and always like a young man."

"The current rule in Gumu Village is to kill outsiders?"

Shi Jing said helplessly: "What happened fifteen years ago has left everyone with lingering fears. They no longer trust outsiders. The new rule Xiao Wu has established is to throw outsiders with evil intentions into the poisonous pond."

There is a poisonous pond in the mountains, which is the place of ancestors worshiped by Gumu Village for generations. The poisonous pond is a spiritual treasure created by the ancestors using poisonous insects and secret techniques, which can accelerate the growth of poisonous insects of insect masters. The nutrients of the poisonous pond are not only in the mountains, but also in the poisonous pond. In addition to wild beasts, there are also trained mystic masters. When dissolved in the poisonous pool, the spiritual energy will become nourishment.

From the moment Luo Chen entered the village, they fell into Xiao Wu's trap. The fabricated story of Changshou Spring led them step by step to the poisonous pond, and finally threw them into it.

However, they know that the mysticism master is not so easy to target. The spiritual energy is naturally resistant to the poisons of the insect keeper, because those poisons are refined from evil energy and can be easily detected by the mysticism master.

Therefore, Xiao Wu made a unique centipede poison that is difficult to detect and has slow toxicity. It will slowly dissipate the mystic master's spiritual energy. Once the spiritual energy protection is lost, the centipede poison will spread throughout the body.

"Will you be poisoned to death in the end?"

"No, but you will become a vegetative state. You can only talk and never move again."

"What?"

"Fortunately, you two escaped and met me. My father was driven out of the village back then and lived in seclusion here. He has been secretly understanding what happened in the village. He learned that Xiao Wu harmed people in this way. So I secretly developed an antidote, and now only I can remove the centipede poison from both of you."

Luo Chen was glad that he was lucky, and he thanked Shi Jing for saving his life.

Shi Jing sighed, "Xiaowu used Changshouquan's trap and killed countless people. You two were the first to escape."
