Stray

"We need to get her back quickly, we can't waste time here. Bigg looked at Locke with sadness and anxiety in his eyes.

Locke frowned tightly and didn't respond to Bigg. He looked at Ariel's face, and his heart felt like a big stone had been crushed, and he seemed to be out of breath.

"It's useless, Bigg. This creature is called the green poison forest snake, and its teeth are poisonous. Although not highly toxic, it can cause continuous bleeding. I'm afraid Ariel won't last more than half a day, not to mention that it will take us three days to get out even if we go out with all our might. Brooke crouched down, scrutinizing Ariel's condition, and couldn't bear to explain.

"It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, Ariel wouldn't be where he is now!" Leo growled in pain, blaming himself, feeling that his mistake was the culprit for all this.

Locke sat on his knees in silence, his hands clasped around Ariel's cold left hand, his eyes vacant. His heart was crushed by a boulder, and he was in great pain.

"Leo, don't do that. You are not to blame for this, and if it weren't for you, we would have been much worse. The Green Poison Snake is an assassin killer in the forest, known as the 'Forest Assassin', although his strength is not top-notch, but his assassination methods are unmatched. Brooke comforted Leo, but also wanted to reassure the others, death was commonplace, but .......

Bigg listened silently, knowing that Brooke was right. This creature is extremely camouflaged and stealthy, and no creature of its rank is its opponent. If it weren't for Brooke's sharp instincts, they would all have died here.

"Brooke, I was too careless and relied too much on my own strength. If it weren't for your intuition, we'd all be in danger. Locke bowed his head in repentance, his heart filled with self-reproach and remorse, and tears fell on Ariel's bright red clothes.

"Locke, it's not your fault. We are all in the same boat and should support each other. Brooke comforted Locke, feeling a bitterness in his heart.

Bigg stood silently, tears in his eyes. He looked at Ariel's pale and bloodless face, his heart was like a knife, although he and this girl had often quarreled for a long time, it was undeniable that Ariel had occupied a large part of his heart, and he had long regarded it as family.

"Ariel......" He choked up and called her name, but didn't dare to come closer. He was afraid, afraid to lose her.

"There's no point in talking about this now, it's sad and sad. "We must find a cure for her in this half a day, or ......," he continued, but everyone knew what he meant.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment. The sun shines through the leaves on Ariel's pale face. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if to tell everyone that she was still alive. But the faint breath of life reminded them that time was running out.

Locke lowered his head and told Ariel and the others in a heavy tone: "The venom and wounds of the Green Poison Snake are simply not able to cope with the medicine in our backpack. To cure Ariel, one must search for specific herbs in the forest. "

Locke knew more about herbs than anyone else, explaining, "This python is so rare that many people don't see one in their lifetime, so it's very rare. Unless it is for it, this medicine is generally not specially prepared. This is something that Locke never expected.

Leo's tone was filled with a hint of eagerness and self-reproach, "If you say anything, we'll do our best to find it!" Bigg and Brooke followed, with that faint glimmer of hope in their hearts for guidance from Locke.

Locke looked up, his eyes bloodshot and his eyes revealing determination and determination. "A hundred years of ginseng, a hundred years of blood saffron, and thirty years of argus grass," he said word for word, "as long as you find these three, it is possible to pull Ariel back from the brink of death." "

When Brooke heard this, his heart sank. He knew the rarity of these three things, especially the hundred-year-old herbs, which were even more difficult. He looked at Locke with mixed feelings, no matter what, he didn't believe in fate, and he couldn't let Ariel "leave" like this.

Bigg was silent for a moment, then asked, "Does it have to be a hundred years?" His voice was uncertain and trembling, although he didn't know much about herbs, but a hundred years .......

Locke nodded heavily, "Yes, a hundred years of ginseng essence can prolong life, a hundred years of blood saffron can promote blood regeneration, and Oumars grass has the effect of healing wounds." All three are indispensable. "

Leo listened silently, he wasn't familiar with herbs, but he could sense the seriousness of the matter. He looked at Locke and was silent!

Locke looked at them, and he knew that there was little hope in this situation. He just wanted to give himself a comfort and a hope to everyone. He said in a deep voice: "We try our best to find it, the giant screen forest is so big, we can still find it." He knew they were thinking the same way, and if there was even a glimmer of hope, they would go for it. They knew it might just be a glimmer of hope. But they still choose to believe, choose to work hard.

"Ouroboros, which grows on the edge of cliffs, is firmly rooted in the crevices of the rocks. Each Ouroboros is particularly sharp, with jagged teeth on the edges of the blades, which reflect a glimmer of light in the sunlight and are easy to find from a distance. "

"Blood saffron, they grow in dark, damp caverns, where the air smells of moist earth. The flowers of the blood-red flowers are as bright as flames, and the blood-red petals stand out in the darkness. The underside of the leaves is also blood-red, which contrasts with the flowers. Must go to such a cave to find. "

"Ginseng, this is the most mysterious and rare plant. They only survive in the alternating yin and yang, semi-dry and semi-wet places, the leaves of ginseng essence are very unique, a leaf has three colors intertwined, white, green and red blend with each other, and the growth rate of ginseng essence is very slow, it takes ten years for a leaf to fully unfold. Therefore, the search for ginseng essence requires patience in looking for plants that have more than ten leaves. Each leaf is the essence of ginseng, condensing its ten years of life force, and it is also the key to ensuring Ariel's continued life. "

Locke described to them in detail the physical characteristics, growth environment, and appearance of the three herbs, so that they could better understand the characteristics of the three herbs, which provided valuable clues for the subsequent search work.
