The leader of Lingyun lingered in front of a cave, his face was worried, and he sighed, which made everyone who heard it secretly worried.

Chu Li and Ao Zhan stopped three steps away from the leader.

"Boss, what's the matter?"

Leader Lingyun walked quickly to Chu Li, "High Priest, I brought all the food that the children have eaten recently, take a look."

The sky was completely dark, with only a little light from the moon, not particularly bright.

"Leader, wait a moment." Chu Li walked into the cave in three steps at a time, and lit the oil lamp.

A small flame seemed to be born out of thin air, adding infinite vitality to the darkness. The leader of Lingyun was secretly amazed, and he was sure that the ability of the high priest should not be underestimated.

"High Priest, does this fire have a name?"

It took a second for Chu Li to realize what a small oil lamp the leader of Lingyun asked. Many people have seen it, but no one has ever asked, "This is a small oil lamp. If your tribe wants it, I can teach you how to make it. Very simple."

Leader Lingyun nodded gratefully, "Thank you High Priest."

Chu Li nodded, and put the small oil lamp on the table, "Leader put the things on the table for me to see."

"Okay." Leader Lingyun held something like a net bag in his hand. It looked like a small version of a hemp bag. Human creativity is extraordinary. Whenever a gap is opened, human beings will definitely evolve on this basis. Many simple and practical things.

Chu Li opened the net bag, and there were some fruits in it, some he had seen before, some he hadn't seen, some he had eaten, and they were not poisonous, while the ones he hadn't seen looked weird, but they didn't look poisonous either. Chu Li picked them up one by one and planned to taste them.

Ao Zhan grasped Chu Li's wrist, "You want to eat them?"

Chu Li was helpless, "How do I know whether it is poisonous or not if I don't eat it?" There is no instrument for testing ingredients in this place, so he can't think of any other way except to test it like relying on a dragon to taste herbs.

Ao Zhan's gaze fell on the obedient fruit in Chuli's hand, he grabbed it with his other hand and ate it, and after swallowing it, he said, "I'll try it for you."

Chu Li was stunned.

Ao Zhan wanted to get the second one again, but Chu Li grabbed his wrist, "Wait a while... You ate one just now, wait 10 minutes to see the reaction."

Ao Zhan nodded and sat aside.

Leader Lingyun was shocked by Ao Zhan's resolute aura just now, isn't he afraid of being poisonous?

Chu Li raised his head and glanced at the leader of Lingyun, "Sit down, too, this will take some time."

"High Priest, will this disturb your rest?" Leader Lingyun asked concerned.

Chu Li waved his hand, "It's okay, by the way, leader, have you eaten these fruits yet?"

The leader of Lingyun shook his head, "No, there are not many of these fruits, and they are all distributed to the children. It's just strange that these fruits have been eaten all the time. For example, last year and the year before last, they were all fine. For some reason, suddenly this year problem occurs."

Speaking of which, Chu Li also felt strange.

At this time, Ao Zhan suddenly asked, "Chief, have you eaten anything new in the past few days this year? The kind that you have never eaten in previous years?"

After careful consideration, Leader Lingyun waved his hand, "No, if that's the case, then we must know the reason for the poisoning."

This is true.

About 10 minutes later, Chu Li gave Ao Zhan his pulse, "No problem."

Ao Zhan ate the second fruit first.

Chu Li looked at him helplessly, "You don't need to taste it anymore, the leader just said that they have been eating these fruits in previous years, and there is no problem, which means that the problem is not with these fruits."

Ao Zhan turned his head and looked at Chu Li, "It's okay, it's not poisonous anyway, eat it to nourish your body."

"You are optimistic."

After hearing what Chu Li said, Leader Lingyun knew that he had nothing to do, "High Priest, rest early, I'm leaving first."

Chu Li nodded, "Okay."

After the leader of Lingyun left, Ao Zhan became casual, staring at the small oil lamp, and "teased" the flames with a small wooden stick. The flames were "teased" by him, flickering, and the whole cave was shaking.

"Chu Li, this problem seems a bit difficult to solve."

Chu Li was not pessimistic, took out a fist-sized fruit from his net pocket and took a bite, then bumped Ao Zhan's arm, "This fruit tastes good, similar to pears, sweet and crunchy, and it's full of juice after one bite It's just a bit weird, oval, like a kiwi fruit, but the surface is hairless and green.

Ao Zhan worried, "Chu Li, what are we going to do next?"

Chu Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart, now he has to find out the situation like a detective in order to rescue him, and the difficulty of practicing medicine has risen sharply, "Using a stupid method to investigate the diet of the tribe in the past few days, anyway, this problem must appear in eating .”

Ao Zhan didn't doubt Chu Li's words at all, "Where does the investigation start?"

Chu Li thought for a while, "There are only those kinds of food, meat, fruit, water, fruit has been ruled out now, and there are two types left. Let's investigate from the source of water."

"it is good."

"Ao Zhan, go back and tell everyone, just say that we are here to repair and refresh, and leave after I detoxify the children."

"I see."

……

Jiqian entrusted his younger brother to Shaohao's care, and arrived at Chuli's cave early in the morning.

Although Shaohao's leg was dismantled, he still couldn't walk for a long time. Before rushing on the road, he insisted that his leg was completely healed, but after walking for a day, he found that he couldn't walk at all the next day, which scared him enough. I no longer dare not to listen to Chu Li's words, to travel less and raise more. Now as long as there is no need to move, I just stay somewhere to rest.

Jiqian didn't knock on the door or shout anything, just waited quietly at the door, he knew in his heart that the high priest had worked much harder than them, so he couldn't disturb his rest.

Chu Li is always heartbroken by Jiqian's understanding and thoughtfulness, and feels that his original choice was right.

At this moment, on the tribal flatlands, the cauldron started to work again. Yiwu Yaoyun and the others were baking salty wild vegetable kudzu root cake. No, they had to take it back again, but it happened to be dry food for the road.

The faint and alluring aroma of cakes spread out from the pot, attracting the early risers in the tribe.

"Uncle, what delicious food are you doing?" the little orc who picked up stones yesterday asked with a smile, looking very lovable.

Shanmin replied with a smile, "Pancakes, are they delicious?"

The little orc said sweetly, "Sweet."

Shan Min turned over the cakes in the pan one by one. After turning them over, the aroma was mixed with a bit of crispy aroma, making it even more attractive, "It will be ready in a while, let me try it."

"Thank you uncle."

Shanmin smiled and glanced at the little orc, quite polite.

Chu Li came out of the cave and was about to wash up with his things. As soon as he came out, he saw Jiqian waiting at the door, "Jiqian, so early?"

Ji Qian came over happily, "High Priest, are you awake?"

"Well, I'm going to wash my face, do you want to go?" Chu Li was a little surprised, why did the little guy come so early?

Jiqian nodded quickly, "Go."

"Let's go."

On the way, Jiqian hesitated all the time, wanting to ask Chuli a question, but afraid that Chuli would say he was stupid.

Chu Li was very curious when he saw Jiqian scratching his ears and cheeks, "Jiqian, do you have something to say to me?"

Jiqian scratched his head, "High Priest, I have a question for you."

Chu Li smiled and asked, "What's the problem?"

Jiqian smiled awkwardly but politely, "High Priest, yesterday you told me what medicine can be used to treat cough, but I seem to have misremembered it."

The little guy is diligent and studious, "Then what do you remember?"

"High Priest, I remember that the herbs for warming and dispelling cold phlegm include pinellia, white mustard seed, inula, white front, etc. The herbs for clearing away heat and reducing phlegm include Chuanbei, Fritillaria fritillaria, Trichosanthes, Bamboo Ru, Peucedanum, Campanulaceae, Kelp, Seaweed Pumice, corrugated seeds, etc. Herbal medicines for relieving cough and asthma include apricot, surren, babu, aster, coltsfoot, loquat leaf, Tinglizi, ginkgo, etc.

"Are Xingzi and Su Ren right?"

Chu Li secretly thought that it would be difficult for the little guy to memorize so many herbs at once. In fact, he also wanted the little guy to memorize less, but Ji Qian insisted on memorizing more, so he let him do it, "It's not Xingzi and Su Ren, but Almonds and perilla."

Jiqian slapped his head, "I just find it weird, so the mistake is here."

Chu Li patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, "It's okay, I made mistakes when I recited herbal medicine back then, I'll remember it after a few more times, don't worry too much, as I told you, studying medicine , be steady, understand?"

Jiqian nodded heavily, "High Priest, I understand."

"Ah."

After washing his face and returning home, Shan Min and his team's pancakes were almost ready. There were several turtle shell pans filled with pancakes, tall and pointed, round and yellow, very attractive to look at.

Yiwu waved to Chuli, "The high priest, Jiqian, is here for breakfast."

Chu Li glanced at those cakes, and secretly thought that they were hardworking people, "I'll come as soon as I put the things away." At the same time, I felt a little strange, why didn't I see Ao Zhan?

"it is good."

Jiqian and Chuli went to the cave, but they just went back to the cave where he lived, and Shaohao and his younger brother were inside, "Uncle Shaohao, younger brother, go down and have breakfast."

The younger brother rushed over to hold Jiqian's hand.

Shaohao stood up, "Let's go."

Here, Chuli put the things in the cave, and then went to look for Ao Zhan. If this man had come to look for him at any other time, why didn't he see anyone today? How strange?

"Ao Zhan."

Shaohao and Jiqian happened to come out and meet each other, Shaohao said, "High Priest, Ao Zhan seems to have gone outside the tribe."

Outside the tribe?

Chu Li immediately turned around and walked outside the tribe, thinking while walking, what are you doing outside the tribe so early in the morning?

Fortunately, not long after leaving the tribe, I saw that stern and charming man walking towards him slowly, but his expression was a little bit bad.

Chu Li hurried forward, "Ao Zhan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Ao Zhan stretched out his hand to hold Chuli and walked back, "It's okay, don't worry."

Chu Li didn't believe it at all, "You must have something to hide from me." Ao Zhan's complexion was really not good, he clasped his wrist, felt his pulse, "weak spleen and stomach, you..."

Everyone eats the same thing, the only difference is the fruit...

"Ao Zhan, have you eaten anything since you left my cave yesterday?"

Ao Zhan shook his head, "No."

There was something in Chu Li's mind that was about to come out, but it was still a little short, "Go back to have breakfast, and think while eating."

"Chu Li, do you have any ideas?"

Chu Li lowered his eyes and thought, "I haven't thought of it yet, I'll let you know when I think of it."

In order not to disturb Chu Li's thoughts, Ao Zhan didn't ask any more questions, "Okay."
