Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Hopefully, We’ll Have the Chance to Meet Again in the Next Life

This was their second entry into Heifeng Ridge.

However, this time, Chu Qianli insisted that she lead the way.

Last time, when the Medicine Man approached, she distinctly smelt a scent of decay.

She was extremely sensitive to smells.

This time, she repeatedly stressed that no one should act on their own, not to stray from her team, and that she must lead the way.

Initially, Fu Long disagreed, but after she led everyone to successfully avoid several Medicine Men, Fu Long completely submitted.

"These Medicine Men probably weren’t strategically placed here; they are more likely defective products discarded at the bottom of Heifeng Cliff."

These three words – defective products – sounded extremely cruel, but according to Chu Qianli’s observation, it was the truth.

The Medicine Men’s appearances had no pattern, and further observation revealed that although their attacking power was strong.

But unless they sensed danger, they wouldn’t suddenly attack others.

"It’s the smell of blood," Chu Qianli turned back to look at Fu Long and the brothers.

"The Medicine Man that appeared earlier was startled by the sound of a sneeze."

At that moment, the Medicine Man was already very close, and Chu Qianli also clearly perceived that rotten smell.

It’s just that at the time, facing a Medicine Man for the first time, she hadn’t reacted yet.

"The ones that came after were attracted by the smell of blood. Everyone put away your swords; even if we encounter a Medicine Man, do not draw your swords immediately."

Without the scent of blood, they wouldn’t attract a multitude of stray defective Medicine Men.

As long as they weren’t in large numbers, they could at least cope for a bit.

But if they came in large numbers, it would be exceedingly difficult to manage.

"Make sure not to get separated..."

The sky was still dark, and the patch of sky overhead was dim and murky, worsening visibility.

Although she had a drone and had bought batteries, the Medicine Men were too scattered, making reconnaissance time-consuming.

This amount of battery wouldn’t last till Heifeng Cliff.

So now, she could only rely on her own scouting abilities to feel her way through.

The drone would have to be reserved for use on Heifeng Cliff.

Unexpectedly, before she could finish her sentence, one of the brothers walking at the rear suddenly groaned.

"Ugh..."

"Don’t make any noise!" The rotten scent was nearby; there was a Medicine Man!

The brother bit down, endured for a moment, but ultimately couldn’t hold it in any longer and let out a scream, "Aah..."

"He’s been bitten by a snake!" The person walking in front of him finally noticed something was wrong.

Turning back, he saw the brother lying on the ground, bleeding from a wound, with his lips turning black!

Fu Long wanted to go over, but Chu Qianli urgently said, "Don’t move, there’s a Medicine Man!"

Fu Long didn’t want to move either, but the brother had a wound on his leg, and it was bleeding.

The smell of blood had attracted the Medicine Man.

Just as the Medicine Man was about to pounce on the injured brother, Fu Long, who had turned back, immediately went over and threw a punch at the Medicine Man’s stomach.

The Medicine Man was knocked to the ground, feeling no pain at all, and got right back up.

Snarling, like a crazed wild beast, it lunged at Fu Long.

The surrounding brothers, acting on instinct, started drawing their swords.

Chu Qianli urgently said, "Don’t draw your swords!"

Fu Long’s movement to draw his sword also halted instantly.

In his hesitation, the Medicine Man was already upon him.

Fu Long had no choice but to swing his fist in defense.

Chu Qianli quickly returned to the fallen brother, took out a disposable syringe, and injected him with the prepared serum.

"Ah..." The brother, barely conscious, screamed in pain as the antidote worked its agony.

Fu Long got distracted, and the Medicine Man was upon him, its teeth aiming for a bite.

In a panic, Fu Long met it with his fist, and in the moment Chu Qianli turned back, she saw the Medicine Man’s teeth nearly sinking into Fu Long’s fist.

"He’s covered in deadly poison, don’t let him wound you!"

But it was too late; Fu Long’s punch had already been thrown.

Chu Qianli flicked her wrist, and the sound of Heavenly Silkworm Silk connected with the Medicine Man’s shoulder.

She pulled with all her might and finally managed to yank him away from Fu Long’s fist just as the Medicine Man was about to bite.

But she had not anticipated the Medicine Man’s strength to be so great.

In a frenzy, the Medicine Man struggled, and the reactive force of the Heavenly Silkworm Silk jerked her over.

"Watch out!" Fu Long and his brothers immediately rushed over to rescue her, but they were still a step too late.

With a hiss, the Medicine Man grasped Chu Qianli’s arm.

Sharp nails tore through her clothes and scratched a bloody mark on her arm.

Black blood!

"Damn it!" Fu Long knocked down the Medicine Man that was on top of Chu Qianli with a punch, and then landed another punch on the Medicine Man’s head.

At last, the Medicine Man ceased struggling, fell to the ground, and moved no more!

"It’s poisonous!" Yazi helped Chu Qianli to her feet and seeing the black blood on her wound, his face turned pale with fright.

"Leader, she’s poisoned, what do we do?"

"I have... an antidote." Chu Qianli’s breath was somewhat weak.

She hadn’t expected the poison of the Medicine Man to be so fierce; she barely managed to get the antidote out, and before she could pop it into her mouth, her fingers lost their strength.

Fu Long came over and helped her up.

He snatched the medicine from her and stuffed it in her mouth: "Quick! Swallow it!"

Chu Qianli made a great effort and, finally, managed to swallow the Medicine Pills.

But she still felt utterly weak.

How could her body have grown so weak recently?

Or was it that the original owner of this body was just too frail?

Even after taking the antidote, she still felt extremely weak.

Seeing her in such a weakened state, Fu Long immediately felt guilty.

"Why... it’s all my fault!"

She was injured by the Medicine Man while trying to save him!

Otherwise, with her quick reflexes, the Medicine Man wouldn’t have been able to harm her at all.

A bunch of grown men like them not only failed to protect her, but they even needed her to rescue them repeatedly!

Her injury was all due to his causing trouble!

"Miss Chu..."

"Once... we’ve all... eaten hotpot together, drank... cola... we are brothers."

So, there was no need for regret.

She believed that if she were in trouble, Fu Long would come to her rescue too!

"I’m a bit... tired... This poison is somewhat... fierce, I need to... sleep for a while."

Chu Qianli’s eyelids felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, and she could no longer keep them open.

"Don’t... run around, wait for me... to wake up..."

Afterward, her head tilted, and she completely passed out.

A pang of sorrow hit Fu Long’s heart.

This little girl, even before she fainted, was still concerned about everyone’s safety.

A girl of only fifteen or sixteen, in other homes, might still be in her boudoir, or just have gotten married.

What kind of storms from the outside world could she have experienced?

The emperor was too cruel to her.

"Yazi."

He looked at Yazi, who also had a pained expression on his face, and said quietly, "Get her out of here, the same way we came, quickly!"

Heifeng Cliff, they must go there.

But, there was no need to drag this little girl along and needlessly sacrifice her life.

Yazi looked at him, finally gritted his teeth, and nodded: "I will definitely get her out safely. Leader, wait for me, I’ll come back, and stand together with everyone, in life and death!"

Yazi picked up Chu Qianli and immediately hurried along the original path toward the exit of Heifeng Ridge.

Fu Long watched them go far away, then turned back to face the others: "No need to wait for them, let’s move out!"

Today, having been saved by her, Fu Long recognized this friend.

Only, this debt of gratitude, he was afraid, would have to be repaid in the next life.

May there be a chance to meet again in the next life!

Just as Fu Long was about to lead his brothers forward, he hardly expected that, just as he turned around, from the direction they had come, Yazi’s alarmed shout came: "The Medicine Man is coming!"
