"Ah, no!" Su Tao exclaimed when he saw the deputy general rolling into the huge pit.

"I'm fine."

The deputy general's voice came from the huge pit, and Su Tao couldn't help but be stunned.

This scene is too scary, falling directly into a giant pit with a giant python, giving anyone a chill down the back.

But it was said that the deputy general was shaken by the giant python, and a powerful crisis rushed directly towards him.

The deputy general didn't think too much at that time and just rolled on the spot. Who knew, he would fall directly into the pit.

The moment he fell into the pit, the long sword in the deputy general's hand was tightly held in his hand.

When I saw the giant python in the huge pit, it was also seriously injured.

The deputy general's eyes were fixed on the seven inches of the giant python, and the long knife in his hand slashed directly at the seven inches of the giant snake.

The giant python rolled in pain, but the deputy general seized the opportunity. Turning over, the deputy general slashed at the seven-inch area several times, severely hitting the vital part of the giant python. The giant python rolled for a moment,

Suddenly there was no life left.

Seeing this, the soldiers quickly pulled the deputy general up from the pit.

The lieutenant general felt dejected as he looked at the few hundred or so soldiers left.

He led a thousand soldiers, but he did not expect that only one tenth was left.

Suddenly, Su Tao saw that the skin of the deputy general's hand had been corroded and began to turn black.

Su Tao exclaimed: "Your hand!"

It seemed that the poison had eroded the skin just now, and the deputy general felt some numbness in his hands.

Shopkeeper Qian checked the deputy general's injuries and ran away. Su Tao didn't know what shopkeeper Qian wanted to do.

Not long after, Su Tao saw shopkeeper Qian coming back with a handful of usneas.

The lieutenant was already a little groggy at this time, and his mind was no longer clear.

Suddenly, a cold stinging pain penetrated the bone marrow at the wound, and the muscle in the wound felt as if it had been cut off.

Rao, the always resolute lieutenant general, still gasped in pain.

The lieutenant gradually woke up and watched Shopkeeper Qian rubbing a ball of green usnea in his palm, and drops of green juice dripping into the wound on his calf.

It felt like a small, stinging insect burrowing into the muscles and scurrying around.

The veins on the lieutenant's face popped out, he must have endured great pain.

As several drops of green juice seeped into the wound again, the deputy general couldn't bear it anymore and screamed, clutching the soil tightly in pain.

This feeling almost made the lieutenant suffocate.

Without saying much, after applying the piece of plant residue on the deputy general's hand, shopkeeper Qian tore off the strips of his own shirt and gently bandaged the deputy general's wound.

"Okay." Shopkeeper Qian patted the residue in his hand and said.

"Shopkeeper Qian, as far as I know, usnea cannot detoxify snake venom, why do you still use usnea?" Su Tao looked at shopkeeper Qian with some confusion.

Shopkeeper Qian looked at the deputy general's eyes that were gradually clearing up and said:

"There are no other plants on this gentle slope, so it must have been eroded by the venom of the giant python.

Only this usnea grew vigorously on the gentle slope, so Qian concluded that this usnea must be able to cure snake venom."

The deputy general gradually felt that he could exert more force on his hands and said, "Thank you so much, shopkeeper Qian!"

"You're welcome." Shopkeeper Qian smiled and said, "I think we need to take a short break, but we still have to hurry up and get on our way."

The deputy general nodded. The group just rested for a while and did not dare to be careless. Soon they set off again.

Walking to a valley, I saw

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

There is a cave in the valley.

Shopkeeper Qian suddenly stopped. Seeing this, Su Tao asked, "Shopkeeper Qian, what's wrong?"

"Qian heard that this blue rock flower likes shade and does not see sunlight all year round. It only grows in moist places. It is cold in the cave and there is no light, so maybe there will be blue rock flowers."

Su Tao's eyes light up whenever he hears the word "Qingyanhua" now, and he says, "Then what are you waiting for? We'll find out when we go in and take a look."

The lieutenant led the soldiers first.

After walking a few steps, there was suddenly a rustling sound all around, and a very bad premonition hit me again.

This rustling sound made Shopkeeper Qian a little concerned. But he didn't know what the sound was. The group continued moving forward.

The deeper you go, the darker the cave becomes, and everyone lights torches.

After running a few steps forward, a large number of densely packed poisonous insects crawled towards me. They were stacked on top of each other and piled up to a height of more than a foot, blocking the road ahead.

It was like one wave after another. Just after killing the giant python, another group of uninvited guests came.

As soon as they heard the sound of thousands of poisonous insects crawling on the ground, the soldiers felt a chill running down their spines.

The feeling of being chewed into a skeleton by thousands of poisonous insects and the pain are simply unimaginable.

There are many types of poisonous insects, including poisonous snakes, centipedes, centipedes, scorpions...

There are also a few small golden toads mixed in with it.

Other poisonous insects are also common, but those golden toads are very ferocious.

They have a scientific name, called Golden Poison Toad. They are highly poisonous and emit poisonous gas.

A mouthful of venom it sprays can kill ten people in less than half a stick of incense.

Everyone was panicked and did not dare to move forward. They all retreated from the cave entrance.

"What should we do now?" The deputy general looked at the entrance of the cave, thinking about the thousands of poisonous insects in the cave, and his scalp felt numb.

"How about we look elsewhere! There may not be blue rock flowers in this cave!" the deputy general suggested.

At present, there are countless casualties among the soldiers, and the remaining soldiers may not be able to insist on returning to the border town.

"Originally, Qian was not sure whether there were blue rock flowers in the cave, but now, Qian can be sure."

"How did Shopkeeper Qian base his judgment?" Su Tao looked at the few remaining soldiers around him and couldn't bear to let any more soldiers' lives go to waste.

"The blue rock flower is a wonderful medicine for treating diseases, but the medicine itself is highly toxic. Golden toads like to live near the green rock flower because they can absorb the poison of the green rock flower." Shopkeeper Qian knew that entering the cave was not an easy task.

However, the Qingyan Flower is in the cave, so we have to take risks.

"Right now, we can't get close to the Blue Rock Flower at all. If we go in, we will only die in vain. The poisonous insects in this cave will definitely eat us until there is no residue left."

The deputy general's eyes were full of worry. Seeing that the remaining soldiers were in low spirits and with frightened expressions on their faces, he was worried that the soldiers no longer had the confidence to fight.

"We attack with fire? Is it possible?" Su Tao remembered that leeches are also afraid of fire.

"That's inappropriate. The blue rock flowers are in the cave. If there is a fire attack, the flowers will be burned." Shopkeeper Qian rejected the proposal.

Su Tao frowned, not knowing what to do.

Shopkeeper Qian pondered for a while and said: "Usnea! Let's go pick usnea. Since usnea can survive the venom of the giant python, it must be able to get rid of poisonous insects."

Shopkeeper Qian ordered the soldiers to return to the gentle slope and pick usneas.

Soon, there will be

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The soldiers then returned to the cave entrance with a large number of usneas in their arms.

Shopkeeper Qian ordered everyone to pound usnea into a concoction and apply the concoction all over the body, especially the exposed skin.

Everyone took action one after another, and Su Tao also joined them.

The concoction is green and smeared on the body and face, and everyone looks like a savage.

The soldiers didn't feel much about it, after all, there were times when war was dirtier than this.

On the other hand, Su Tao's fair face turned green, which really made people laugh.

Su Tao, who had always been very particular, couldn't care less at this time.

The deputy general looked at Su Tao and said: "Miss Su, please stay outside the cave this time! If you are injured at this last moment, then my subordinates will have no way to explain to King Yun!"

Su Tao wanted to argue, but he opened his mouth and didn't speak. He just nodded.

A few people were left to protect Su Tao, and the group explored the cave again.

The deputy general leads the way.

Although the poisonous insects were still entrenched, they did not dare to come even close to the body. Even within a radius of three feet, not a single poisonous insect dared to approach.

But now among the poisonous insects, the three golden poisonous toads are the only ones missing.

Shopkeeper Qian was a little suspicious. He walked a few steps away from the deputy general and glanced around him.

When he glanced at it, he couldn't help but gasped again.

Ten feet away from the lieutenant's head, there are three golden toads with blue eyes, which are the golden poisonous toads.
