Chapter 178: The Jianghu in the Wine and Sword Village (21)
Seeing this scene, Tang Cuo couldn't help but take a few steps back, and was supported by Jiang Sichen who was standing beside him.
"Are you okay?" Jiang Sichen's tone was full of concern.
"What's going on? Why are there so many...corpses?" Everyone took a step back and asked in confusion.
Li Huaiyu took a few steps forward with a serious expression, then raised his hand to touch the bamboo leaves, but was stopped in time by Yu Feng who was standing beside him.
"Don't touch it, it's poisonous." Yu Feng said seriously.
"It's poisonous, is it the bamboo or..."
"It's all there, and it might be poisonous. It's a little dangerous, so don't touch it yet." As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Feng pulled Li Huaiyu back to the team, "You usually look smart, but why are you so stupid? You don't even know what it is, but you dare to touch it with your hands. Do you want to die?"
"Heh, you're just pretending." Li Huaiyu shook off his hand forcefully and walked to the side.
"Hey? What's wrong with you?" Seeing that his attitude seemed to have changed overnight, Yu Feng was a little confused.
He walked closer to Jiang Sichen, his tone full of confusion, "Tell me, what's going on? It wasn't like this before, why does it seem like I have offended him in some way?"
"He heard our conversation yesterday." Jiang Sichen said calmly.
"Heard it?" Yu Feng's voice became a little louder in disbelief. Feeling the gazes coming from all around, he immediately lowered his voice, "What did he hear?"
"Probably the part where you said you were interested in Ah Cuo. I didn't hear anything before that."
"You knew he was eavesdropping? Then why didn't you tell me?" Yu Feng raised his hand and patted his thigh, looking regretful, "Did you do that on purpose?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Cuo suddenly felt as if someone had slapped him on the back, and he instantly flew into the bamboo forest.
Jiang Sichen reacted immediately and stretched out his hand to grab Tang Cuo, but in the end he only brushed his sleeve, causing him to fly out, and did not catch him.
The moment he landed, Tang Cuo exhaled a breath of foul air, then turned his head to look at the people behind him. Before he could stand up, a vine that came from nowhere climbed directly onto his ankles and dragged him into the depths of the bamboo forest.
"Oh my god..." In just a moment, his figure disappeared from everyone's sight.
Yu Feng hurriedly turned around to check, but found that there was no one behind him. He looked at Jiang Sichen in confusion, "What's going on? Why do I feel like someone is setting a trap for us again?"
"Young Master Tang has been arrested, what should we do?" Everyone exclaimed.
"What else can we do? He's just an unknown knight. You can't expect all of us to take risks for him. I suggest we bypass this place and take another route." A crisp voice came from behind.
"This..." When everyone heard his words, they looked at each other in surprise.
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Sichen jumped into the bamboo forest.
"Young Master Jiang, please come back quickly. The bamboo forest is poisonous." Several people tried to stop him.
"You all go first, I'm going to save people. You don't have to wait for us. If there is a chance, Acuo and I will meet you." After saying that, he turned and walked into the bamboo forest, leaving only his back to everyone.
"I really don't understand, why do you have to save a useless person like that?"
"Yeah, I wasted my life in vain."
"Heh, a bunch of idiots. Even if you die, he won't die. He has no ability and can only bark wildly." Yu Feng snorted and walked to Li Huaiyu's side.
Seeing his slightly worried expression, Yu Feng raised his hand and put it on his shoulder, "Don't worry, nothing will happen to them."
"Why are you still here?" Li Huaiyu turned his head and looked at him.
"Ah? Why can't I be here? Young Master Tang has Young Master Jiang at his place, and I can just take care of you." Yu Feng curled his lips and smiled.
"I don't need it." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Huaiyu called on everyone to continue on their way.
Yu Feng, who was left aside, could only sigh helplessly.
In the bamboo forest, Tangcuo was dragged all the way to a cave. He lowered his eyes to look at the vines around his ankles, and a soft feeling swept through his whole body.
Tang Cuo leaned against a stone wall on one side, carefully recalling the scene just now: he saw Yu Feng coming over, so he took a few steps back, and then seemed to have stepped on something.
Just when he was about to look back, he was blown away by a strong force.
Thinking of this, Tang Cuo sighed helplessly, "The people in the martial arts world are just very hot-tempered. If you step on them, they will throw you out. Don't step on them in the future. It's too dangerous..."
Gradually, a feeling of dizziness came over him, and Tangcuo couldn't help but feel that the scene before his eyes began to spin, "Oh, right... what did they say just now... It seems that this bamboo forest is poisonous..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Cuo vaguely saw a shadow entering his sight, but his vision was blurry and he seemed unable to see the appearance of the person.
On the side, Jiang Sichen looked at Tang Cuo who had fainted on the ground, hurriedly took a few steps forward, squatted in front of him, then grabbed his wrist and took his pulse.
Jiang Sichen's expression gradually became serious. He took out a white porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pill and stuffed it into Tang Cuo's mouth.
After that, he did not take Tangcuo out of the cave immediately. Instead, he cut off all the surrounding plants, piled them aside, and then quietly leaned beside Tangcuo.
After a long time, Tang Cuo, who had taken the medicine, gradually woke up. He looked up at the weight on his shoulder and didn't know what to do for a moment.
He raised his hand and touched Jiang Sichen's cheek, and was surprised to find that his forehead was very hot. Tang Cuo didn't care about the numbness in his feet.
He hurriedly stood up and laid Jiang Sichen on the ground, saying anxiously, "How could this happen? Why did he have a fever? Could he be poisoned?"
Thinking of this, Tang Cuo directly drew out his sword, then made a small cut on Jiang Sichen's thumb and squeezed out the blood with force.
Seeing the blood dripping onto the ground turning black and red, Tang Cuo seemed even more anxious. He stood up and carried Jiang Sichen on his shoulders, whispering, "I don't know how to detoxify, brother Jiang, please don't die. I'll take you to find help, you must hold on."
Tang Cuo didn't care about the remaining wound on his foot. His mind was full of getting Jiang Sichen out as soon as possible, otherwise he would die.
Thinking of this, Tang Cuo quickened his pace. After walking for a while, he found that he seemed to be still going in circles in the same place, with no intention of going out.
Tang Cuo was a little panicked. He frantically called the name of the system in his mind. He called it more than ten times, but there was still no response from the system in his mind.
Tangcuo was somewhat exhausted...
