When Chen Yang left the cave, he put the coat soaked in the potion back on.
Along the way, he paid attention to the actions of the three people and found that the male disciple's eyes were looking at his back from time to time.
"Zhang Qing, what are you so dazed about? You've looked like you were distracted from just now."
Liu Zhi's junior brother is named Zhang Qing. He was quite active before. He talked and laughed with several junior sisters along the way, but now he is silent, and the atmosphere among the group has become quite depressed.
"Junior sister is dead, I feel bad."
Zhang Qing raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes, murmuring.
"Well, wealth is determined by fate, and life and death are determined by heaven. Before entering the ruins, we were all prepared. We even wrote our last words, so don't think too much. There is still a long road ahead."
"I know, I just can't get over it for a while."
Zhang Qing no longer peeked at Chen Yang, but took the lead and walked ahead.
Chen Yang saw it and said nothing.
There is no evidence to prove that it was Zhang Qing who sprinkled the potion on him. Even if he said it, there is a high probability that it would be blamed on the two dead female disciples in the end. It would be better to prevent everyone from saying anything through a layer of window paper.
Chen Yang gained a lot from the Demon Face Spider Cave this time, so he put the matter behind him.
After walking forward for a while, they came to a swamp, and the four of them worked together to kill a ten-foot-long millipede that was entrenched under a tree in the swamp.
Right on the nest where the millipede lives, there are five maidenhair plants growing.
Liu Zhi happily took out two of the five maidenhair plants he collected and handed them to Chen Yang.
"There were only five maidenhair plants, so my senior brother gave me two. The two junior brothers and sisters would have objections to the division."
Chen Yang pushed and refused to accept.
"Junior brother Chen, don't worry. You saved a few of us before. Without you, let alone these maidenhair plants. Whether we can get here alive is a question. Originally, I wanted to collect some demon-faced spider egg sacs for you.
But now I can only give you these maidens, don’t worry, I can still get some good things from that millipede."
Liu Zhi couldn't help but put the clematis into Chen Yang's hand. He bent down, cut open the abdomen of the dead millipede, and tried to remove a black cyst-like object from the stomach.
"This is?"
Chen Yang looked at the things in Liu Zhi's hands curiously.
Zhang Qing, who was beside him, explained softly: "Senior brother usually likes to toss the venom of some poisonous insects. Although Malu's gallbladder seems useless, maybe he can make some powerful potion in his hands."
After saying this, Zhang Qing also went over to help.
The female disciple closed her eyes, not daring to look at the bloody scene.
Chen Yang was thoughtful, recalling Zhang Qing's previous words, and couldn't understand why he said that for a while.
Could it be that he was hinting to himself that Liu Zhi was the one who did the trick?
Chen Yang couldn't think of a reason to explain why Zhang Qing did this. For Zhang Qing, his fellow disciples were obviously more trustworthy. If they helped him, what good would it do to Zhang Qing.
Chen Yang did not question the two of them on the spot, but he began to be wary of Liu Zhi in his heart.
The two of them packed up the remains of the Thousand-footed Malus and continued on their journey.
Swamp land.
The ground along the way was filled with rotten gray and black. The surrounding water pools were also turbid and filled with sticky bubbles. The sparse trees grew in strange shapes and were full of needles. The air was filled with poisonous miasma and the stench was extremely bad.
Liu Zhi and Chen Yang all took out a piece of cloth to cover their mouths and noses, holding the detoxifying Qingming Pill in their mouths, and then started exploring with confidence.
Although the environment here is harsh, it is a place where some rare and magical grasses grow. For example, the maidenhair previously grew only on the edge of this swamp.
There are more precious spiritual herbs in the depths of the swamp, as well as more dangerous monster guardians.
