The carriage walked along the rugged mountain road into the valley, passing through a shallow stream, and the sight of it was a relatively flat area at the foot of the mountain.

"It's here." The secret guard who led the way stopped.

Chu Yi couldn't help but frowned, and there was almost no trace of someone moving here: "Are you sure it's here?"

"Yes." The secret guard nodded.

Mingruo saw that this place was indeed a camp. There were many herbs planted around that corpse ghosts did not like, and they should have been specially transplanted from other places.

Ming Ruo and Si Haochen got off the carriage, and A Yuan had already crawled out of the dense vines: "Master."

If it weren't for seeing it with my own eyes, Ayi would never have imagined that there would be a different world under this natural vine.

"Is the situation very bad?" A Yuan usually likes to wear hibiscus skirts, but now she has changed into cotton dresses, but she is afraid that she has encountered some dangers before.

"Yeah." A Yuan nodded, "too much anger can easily attract poisonous people. Let me go to the cave first and then let me explain in detail."

"Okay." Mingruo nodded.

A Yuan asked two carriages and horses pulling the carriage into the cave next to him, and then took Ming Ruo and his party into the cave covered with vines.

After all the people entered the cave, A Yuan silently recited the mantra. Many small insects gathered around and "combed" the messy vines at the entrance of the cave neatly, without any trace of someone passing through.

The little insects tidied up their vines and dispersed. Fifteen was stunned: "A Yuan, can you actually control the flying insects?"

"This is just the most basic manipulation technique, just a trick of calving insects." A Yuan looked calm.

"A little trick of carving insects? Can I learn it?" Fifteen thought that this 'skill' looked very profound and unfathomable.

"You can only practice control techniques by practicing the natal Gu well." A Yuan thought for a while and said, "You are neither the blood of the witch clan, and you are old and you will definitely not be able to learn..."

A row of black lines fell from his head of fifteen, saying that he did not have the blood of the witch clan, but it would be too much to say that he was "old"! He was only eighteen next month, so would he be in his twilight years?

"If you want to control something, just ask my brother to help you, why bother to practice?" Ming Ruo directly gave Fifteen solutions.

"..." Fifteen scratched the back of his head. The boss despised himself being lazy every day. When it comes to "not thinking about progress", the Empress is the best! (Linglong rolled her eyes: How can you compare with Mama? With this baby Mama, you can win by lie down!)

Mingruo looked at the cave carefully and the space inside was quite large. A fire pit was built in the middle, and about a dozen children of different ages sat around the fire pit. Those who were a little younger had mostly ignorant of the world. Those who were older had only fear and sadness.

"These children escaped after being hidden in the cellar and dry well by their families." Seeing his master looking at the children, A Yuan whispered, "The only children survived in the entire village."

Their expressions were so heartbreaking that Mingruo couldn't bear to look at it again and set his eyes deep in the cave. There seemed to be other caves connected there.

"There are still some people there, not only being infected with corpse poison, but also being subjected to manipulation techniques. They cannot be let go directly, so they have to be locked up here first." A Yuan shook his head, "I have tried to awaken them, but the one who casts the magic was black witch, and used forbidden techniques that cannot be solved."

"Yeah." Ming Ruo nodded. Like the poisonous people in Qingniu Town, they could only hope to return to normal after killing the Black Witch.

"What exactly does the person behind the scenes want to do..." Ming Ruo said to himself.

As the saint of Xikang, A Yuan has a deeper understanding of the Black Witch than Mingruo: "They should have wanted to create a large number of dead soldiers in a short period of time. The poisonous people who were infected with the control technique are strong and loyal, but they also have disadvantages.

The body transformed by toxins will collapse in three to five years and can only be used for "quick battle". Before, the black witch captured the Witch Palace and brought an army of poisonous people... As long as they are scratched and bitten, they may become poisonous people, so we will be passive."

Mingruo made a big alarm in his heart and asked Si Haochen with his eyes: Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes want to "the mantis stalk the cicada oriole behind"?

Si Haochen had such speculation, so he was not surprised and asked, "Where is Chu Chenzhou?"

"Mr. Chu found that there was a small village with less than 100 people in Qingniu Mountain and felt it was a bit suspicious. He took people to check this morning and said he would come back before sunset." A Yuan hurriedly replied.

Mingruo glanced outside the hole and it was completely dark: "He didn't come back on time, so something would be wrong, right?"

"I have already taken someone to pick me up, and news will be coming back soon." A Yuan also felt something was wrong and planned to check it out in person.

Si Haochen made a gesture and took the secret guards out to find someone in Chuyi.

"Master, please take a rest here." A Yuan led Mingruo to a slightly concave mountain wall.

Due to the blockage of the stone wall, a small space is naturally formed here. A simple table is also set up here and a bed spliced ​​with tree stumps.

Mingruo sat down on the edge of the bed, and Aqiu took out a copper hanger from his bag: "I will go and burn some water."

"Okay." Mingruo nodded.

"Master, there is a small cave inside. I'll put it on the bamboo bed later. You can make up for the night tonight." A Yuan was a little regretful. If she had known that the master would come, she would have cleaned the cave better. Now that she is like this, she is really wronged by her master.

"No need, I and my wife will go to the carriage to rest later." The cave is messy, and my wife can't rest here at all.

"Then I'll clean up." A Yuan thought of putting more herbs in the cave where the carriage was parked, and try to avoid poisonous people disturbing the master's rest.

"Just do it casually." They have to get into the space anyway, so it's okay to be messy outside.

"I will do it." As soon as A Yuan walked out of the cave, she saw Chu Yi carrying someone on his shoulder and quickly flew towards the cave.

It was not until they came close that A Yuan saw the person being carried by Chuyi: "Chu... Lord Chu!?"

"Mr. Chu was bitten by a poisonous person. Do you think it can be cured..." Chu Yi put the person down.

"This..." A Yuan was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to check Chu Chenzhou's situation.

There was a ferocious wound on Chu Chenzhou's forearm, which looked like a piece of flesh was torn off by a wild beast. However, the wound was already black, and anyone could see that it was poisoned.

A Yuan found that Chu Chenzhou's wound was blocked with the torn hem, preventing the corpse poison from entering the internal organs along the blood vessels.
