Chapter 42 Toxic Air
At this time, he heard some noises coming from not far behind him.
After listening carefully, he knew that it was the two people outside the valley who came into the valley.
He didn't care and went up the stream, picking several herbs that looked good along the way.
But he never saw a soul bone fungus!
At the same time, the sound he heard in his ears told him that the two people behind him were speeding up and getting closer and closer.
After a little thought, he understood that the two people must have seen the traces left by him when he was digging herbs, so they were anxious and wanted to get ahead of him.
It's true that this valley is a straight road. Whoever walks in front will definitely have more advantages and will get more.
Qin Shaochen was hesitating whether to speed up and get rid of the two people.
After all, the soul bone fungus is the medicinal material he must get, and he doesn't want to be beaten by others.
But at this moment, he heard the two people stopped and were talking over there.
His mind moved, and he immediately concentrated and held his breath to listen attentively.
Since practicing the spiritual art, his hearing has been getting better day by day.
The two men were at least thirty or forty feet away from him, but he could hear their voices just by listening carefully.
"Fourth Master, I'm a little out of breath. It seems that something is wrong! My heartbeat is so fast!"
"Yes, my breathing is also a little rapid. Let's stop for a while and adjust our breath first. We can chase them later."
Then, he heard the two people unloading the things on their backs and sitting cross-legged in meditation.
Qin Shaochen smiled and was about to ignore the two people and move forward.
But suddenly he heard the middle-aged man jump up and shout anxiously: "No, this is poisoning! Get up quickly and run back!"
Qin Shaochen was stunned.
Could it be that there was fog in the valley?
He looked around hurriedly. Everything was bright and clear. There was no feeling of smoke at all!
At this time, the two people were already panicking and began to run desperately towards the valley entrance.
All he could hear were chaotic footsteps and the sound of water splashing. It was obvious that they were in a panic.
Qin Shaochen couldn't help shaking his head. He didn't know what the two were doing. They were so frightened by a little difficulty breathing!
"Fourth Master, I can't do it anymore. Help me!"
"Fuck, the air is poisonous. This damn valley is poisonous!"
As the two ran away, the middle-aged man was shocked and angry. He seemed to be holding the young man and trying to run.
"Is it really poisonous?"
The actions of the two people did not look like they were frightened for a while!
Qin Shaochen took two deep breaths and exhaled slowly. He felt that everything was normal.
"Fourth Master, Fourth Master! Don't leave me, help me!"
As the distance got farther, the voice was no longer clear.
It seemed that the middle-aged man had left the young man and was running out alone.
It seemed that the two were really poisoned.
He didn't dare to take it lightly. He sat down on the ground, turned his breath, and checked his body silently.
After running a big circle, he used inner vision to check again and again, and there was nothing unusual.
There was no sign of poisoning at all.
Only then did he feel relieved.
After a little hesitation, he stood up and strode back.
Sure enough, not long after walking, he saw the strong young man lying beside the stream, unconscious.
Qin Shaochen shook his head and stepped forward to grab him and lifted him up.
After walking more than 20 feet forward, he saw the middle-aged man also lying on the side.
He grabbed the middle-aged man with his other hand and strode towards the valley entrance.
In order to save time, he waded through the water in many places. Soon, the two were lifted out of the valley.
He found a flat grassland and put the two down.
The middle-aged man was still conscious. After panting for a while, he sat up with difficulty and said, "Thank you, little brother!"
Then he took out a pill from his arms and swallowed it hastily.
He took out another pill and stuffed it into the young man's mouth, then he let out a long sigh.
He nodded to Qin Shaochen again to show his gratitude, then closed his eyes and began to sit cross-legged to regulate his breathing.
Seeing this, Qin Shaochen could only sit aside and help the two of them guard.
After half an incense stick of time, the middle-aged man finished regulating his breathing, finally exhaled a long breath, and slowly opened his eyes.
"Little brother, thank you so much! I didn't expect that we, the uncle and nephew, were still too careless. If it weren't for your help today, there would be two more wronged souls in this Black Mist Valley!"
Qin Shaochen nodded.
"Senior, are you okay? There won't be any danger anymore, right?"
"Thank you for your concern, little brother. I should be fine now,"
He glanced at the young man next to him.
"My junior, if he goes back and recuperates for a while, he will probably be able to recover!"
"In short, this time, thanks to the help of my little brother, he was able to save his life!"
"It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning! Anyone who sees this situation will help."
"By the way, how did you... get poisoned? I was walking in front, how come I didn't feel it!"
The middle-aged man couldn't help but blush.
"It's all because of my carelessness! Before, I only heard that the black fog in the Black Fog Valley was extremely poisonous, but I didn't expect that the air in this valley was also extremely poisonous."
"Alas! And our antidote is far worse than that of my little brother. That's why we couldn't hold on for a short time after entering the valley."
Speaking of this, he shook his head repeatedly, with envy on his face.
"It seems that my little brother's antidote is very powerful. He went in for so long and nothing happened! No wonder you dare to come into this Black Mist Valley by yourself!"
Qin Shaochen smiled but did not answer.
He can't say that he actually didn't eat anything!
At the same time, he also began to believe that although he could not be a hegemon, he might actually have some ability to resist poison.
At least, this colorless and odorless poison in this valley has little effect on me!
Seeing that Qin Shaochen was silent, the middle-aged man thought for a moment.
"Little brother, I don't know if your magical antidote is still available. I have been obsessed with pharmaceuticals all my life. I want to buy one with my little brother and take it back to study it."
"In terms of price, I can definitely satisfy my little brother!"
Qin Shaochen shook his head and said helplessly: "As for that medicine, I actually only have one, and I took it before entering the valley!"
"I see,"
The middle-aged man had a look of disappointment on his face and smiled bitterly.
"That's true, that kind of expensive elixir is rarely available. It seems that my request is a bit presumptuous!"
Qin Shaochen felt a little unhappy when he saw that he didn't care about the safety of his companions, but was always thinking about some antidote.
"Since senior is fine, I won't affect your rest. I still have the task of collecting herbs, so I'll take my leave!"
After saying that, he bowed his hands and paid no attention to the middle-aged man. He turned around and returned to the valley.
