The Priest Who Travels Through the Beast World Comes

A group of people walked back with torches that flickered and were about to go out.

"Be careful." Ao Zhan clasped Chu Li's waist with quick eyes and hands to help him stabilize his body.

Chuli stepped on a stone when going downhill and almost fell, "I'm fine." He said and retreated from Ao Zhan's arms.

Suddenly he smelled a special smell, a little bitter, a little cold, a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Do you smell anything?"

Ao Zhan smelled it while Chu Li was speaking, "It does have a smell, I haven't smelled it before, it feels a bit like medicinal herbs."

Chu Li shook his head, "No, it's not medicinal materials. I'm familiar with the taste of various medicinal materials, so it's definitely not."

Daxi asked suspiciously, "What is that?"

Chu Li couldn't answer, "Everyone, look around and see if there is anything special around here?"

Ao Zhan immediately lowered the torch and looked for it first.

Chu Li glanced at Ao Zhan's tough and evil facial features, and hooked the corner of his mouth. This man always expressed his unconditional support for him with actions.

"Look carefully, everyone, there must be something around here."

"Yes, High Priest."

It’s not that everyone doesn’t trust Chuli. This period of hesitation is a process of thinking change. After all, Chuli has only been here for a few days.

Under the leadership of Chu Li, everyone dispersed and searched around carefully.

After a while, Ao Zhan suddenly picked up a stone from the ground and smelled it, "Chu Li, look, the smell comes from this."

Chu Li took the stone over, removed the dirt on it, and revealed its original appearance, "Bring over the torch."

Everyone did so immediately.

The flames of the torches were concentrated enough for Chu Li to see what was in his hand clearly. It was not a stone, but a colorless transparent prism crystal. "It's saltpeter."

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

Ao Zhan knew that Chuli had been looking for saltpeter all the time. On the road, especially when he was close to the sea, he would take a map to look at every special terrain.

"Is this the saltpeter?"

Chu Li nodded, "Let's see if there are any other stones like this."

"Okay." Daxi and the others didn't understand what saltpeter was, but seeing that Chu Li was so happy, they guessed it was an important and precious thing, so they hurried to help find it.

Chu Li looked at Ao Zhan, "Where did you find this stone?"

Ao Zhan pointed out, "Here."

Chu Li gave Ao Zhan the saltpeter in his hand, picked up a stone from the side, and started digging.

Saltpeter usually occurs through mineralization. If you can dig out more saltpeter, you can be sure that there is a saltpeter mine here.

Chu Li couldn't hide his joy in his heart. If he found the saltpeter, this primitive society would enter an era of progress.

Ao Zhan gave the things in his hand to the person next to him, "You take the things, I'll help Chu dig."

"it is good."

Ao Zhan also picked up a stone, and like Chu Li, he dug away the dirt on the surface.

Just when he dug and felt that there were stones in the ground, Chu Li's surprised voice came, "Sure enough, there are saltpeter mines."

Even without bringing the torch closer, I could still see the colorless crystalline substances.

Ao Zhan continued digging, "Chu Li, I have them here too."

Chu Li buried the soil back, "Leave it alone for the time being, and start digging after Li Mu is found. Daxi, please help me remember the location here."

"Yes, High Priest."

A group of people continued to walk back, hoping that others would find them.

Human life is greater than the sky, and the joy of finding the saltpeter mine did not ease the burden caused by Li Mu's disappearance to everyone.

……

Wuxi tribe.

The tribe is brightly lit.

In order to illuminate the direction for everyone, the leader asked someone to burn a bonfire on the grass in front of the tribe.

The fiery temperature made everyone sweat.

The teams that went out to find people rushed back one after another, and Chu Li's team was the last one to come back, because they were wasted time on the way to find the saltpeter mine.

Everyone was downcast.

The leader looked at everyone, "No one was found?"

Silence took the place of answer.

Chu Li suddenly asked, "Boss, are there any beasts that eat people around here?"

The leader quickly shook his head, "No, no, there are poisonous and deadly ones, but there is no such thing as eating a person whole."

Someone said, "High Priest, we didn't see any blood on the ground, even if Li Mu was eaten by a wild beast, there should be blood or traces, right?"

There is some truth to this statement.

Shu Hai hesitated, "Then he hid himself? Or was he injured and rescued?"

Ao Zhan analyzed, "If he was hiding by himself and so many of us set out to find him, wouldn't he come out to stop him?"

According to Bi then, "The only possibility is that he was injured and rescued?"

Chu Li hit the nail on the head, "Go ask the nearby tribes."

Daxi asked, "Shall we go now?"

Chu Li thought for a while, "Leader, is there anyone in the tribe keeping watch at night?"

"Yes, every tribe has them."

"Then go right away. If you don't find it, everyone will feel at ease."

The leader gave an order to the orcs in the tribe, "Go to the nearby tribe to ask immediately, and come back immediately after asking."

"Yes, chief."

Chu Li and the others were not familiar with the terrain, so they stayed where they were and waited for news.

The tribes by the sea rely on the salt lake to survive, and the tribes, big and small, are all around, not far away.

It didn't take long for someone to return, but it turned out that there was no one.

The people who were waiting for the news in the tribe were very anxious at the moment, afraid of hearing disappointing answers when they came back, and looking forward to hearing good news.

The fifth person finally brought back good news, "High Priest, Li Mu is in the Lanxia Tribe."

Lanxia tribe?

Isn't this the largest tribe by the sea?

"How's Li Mu?"

"He was bitten by a poisonous snake and left unconscious."

According to Bi said without hesitation, "Please take me there, I'll go see him."

Chu Li came over, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"High Priest, it's too serious, it's not far, let's go."

In the end, everyone went, except for the people from the Wuxi tribe. It was useless for them to go. They had to work tomorrow, and they had already delayed most of the night.

People from the Lanxia tribe have never seen Li Mu, so they don't know which tribe he is from.

There are many teams coming to the beach to exchange salt, basically no less than ten every day.

Especially in big tribes like them, those who come to exchange salt, those who exchange salt and leave, come and go, new faces appear almost every day, and it is impossible to tell who is who.

"Boss, just now people from the Wuxi tribe came to inquire about him. It seems that he came with the high priest." In the cave, Ku Jie said to the leader Lan Xia.

Because of Chu Li, the Wuxi tribe only lives with their group. After all, Chu Li has a noble status, and he is worried that many people will bump into him.

The consideration of the leader of Wuxi proved to be very thoughtful.

Almost every day, people come to their tribe to see Chuli, but they dare not get close, and they always watch from a distance. If they live in the same tribe, they might not know how to crowd around.

Dian Shao hurried into the cave, "Boss, the high priest has brought people here."

"The high priest is here?" Leader Lan Xia was surprised.

"Yes."

"Go, go and meet."

When leader Lan Xia led the people in the tribe to the gate of the tribe, Chu Li happened to be at the gate.

"High Priest." The Lan Xia tribe saluted.

Chu Li didn't care so much, "Leader, take me to see Li Mu."

The leader said unambiguously, "The High Priest please."

Li Mu was indeed in a coma, and his face didn't change much, but his lips were light purple, and he knew he was poisoned at a glance.

"Where did you bring him back from?"

Chu Li asked while checking the wound on Li Mu's body.

The leader said, "He was brought back by Ku Jie." As he spoke, he waved to Ku Jie, "Come and explain to the high priest in detail."

Ku Jie is a young orc, a little taller than Chu Li, with a strong figure, thin, brown skin, looks very healthy, and people at the seaside also look like this.

"High Priest, I saw him at the seaside. At that time, he was bitten by a snake and was washing his wound in the water. He passed out while washing, so I brought him back."

Li Mu was bitten by a snake on his calf.

On the way, Chu Li explained many first aid methods to everyone, including if you were bitten by a snake, you should rush to the water to squeeze the blood and wash the wound.

Li Mu probably listened to it. After being bitten by a snake, he immediately went to wash in the water.

It's just that the snake venom was too strong, and he passed out before he could wash it off.

But fortunately, he cleaned out most of the snake's venom, which made his life safe for the time being.

After confirming that Li Mu's life would not be in danger for the time being, Chu Li asked, "Does any of you know where poisonous snakes often haunt, I'll go get him the antidote?"

"High priest, I know, I will take you there."

Ku Jie is a very brave orc. In fact, his animal form is a great white shark. He doesn't need to be afraid of anything. He is king in the water, so he has a lot of courage.

Dian Shao also said, "High Priest, I will go too, more people can help more."

"Okay." Chu Li walked towards Ao Zhan, and took out a small medicine bag from the medicine bag in his hand, which contained smelly grass powder, "I need a big shell."

"The High Priest, follow me." Ku Jie took Chu Li to the cave where things were stored, and took out a large shell, "High Priest, here."

Chu Li poured the medicinal powder of the stinky grass into a big shell, added water to make a juice, "When everyone is going to go, rub the stinky grass juice on their bodies, so that the poisonous snakes will not dare to come close."

Everyone has already smelled the pungent stench, not to mention the snake, even they themselves can't stand it anymore.

Chu Li directly soaked his hands in the stinky grass juice, and wiped it all over his body, "Hurry up, Li Mu has been poisoned for several hours, and the poison may flare up at any time."

Ao Zhan wiped off the medicine at the same time as Chuli applied it, and even finished it quickly by himself, wanting to help Chuli wipe it off, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, he held back and did not help.

Everyone quickly rubbed the concoction, and then quickly went to the place where poisonous snakes haunted.

Chu Li glanced at the sky, the white that separated the sky and the earth, after the poison of Li Mu was detoxified, it must be dawn.

Ku Jie and Dian Shao walked in front and led the way, holding torches, one person illuminated the top and the other illuminated the bottom, their ability to lead the way was good.

Ku Jie asked, "High Priest, what does the herb that detoxifies snakes look like?"

"It looks similar to Yanxicai." The two of them had never seen Yanxicai before, so Chuli explained, "Yanxicai is the kind of plant that grows by the salt lake."

"Then I know." Ku Jie was surprised by Chu Li's easy-going personality, and thought that the high priest would be superior, and he should be superior in the first place.

"Well, as long as you go to places where poisonous snakes often appear and find antidote herbs, there will be no problem at all."

"High Priest, I'm not in a hurry, but concerned."

"Then I thank you for Li Mu."

Ku Jie felt slightly embarrassed, "You're welcome."
