Chapter 985 [Fragrant Honey: Zhou Shengru Gu 11]
The Black Domain is a place that no one wants to mention. It is shrouded in poisonous fog all year round. There are no living creatures within hundreds of miles, and the surrounding area is very desolate.
Youyou stood at the edge of this strange place, watching everything calmly. The diffuse fog was like a thick veil, shrouding the area in mystery. She frowned slightly, reached out and took out a detoxification pill from her bosom. The detoxification pill exuded a faint medicinal fragrance, which was particularly precious in this dangerous environment. She put the detoxification pill into her mouth without hesitation. The pill melted in her mouth, and a cool medicinal power quickly spread in her body, building a line of defense against toxins for her.
Then, Youyou took a deep breath, her eyes revealed a firmness, and she walked resolutely towards the fog. As soon as she stepped in, although the fog was still thick, she could barely see the surroundings. What came into view was a large area of poisonous grass. The grass had different shapes, some of the leaves were flashing with strange lights, and some of the stems were covered with tiny thorns, each of which seemed to hide deadly dangers. She took every step carefully, her steps were as light as a cat's, and her eyes were fixed on the ground, for fear of accidentally stepping on these poisonous grasses.
However, the dangers are far more than these poisonous weeds. From time to time, some poisonous insects would emerge from the grass. Their bodies were colorful and emitted a disgusting smell. Some poisonous insects had sharp pincers, while others had long poisonous stings. Each one was chilling. Youyou did not dare to take it lightly. She paid close attention to the movements around her, holding a dagger tightly in her hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
However, when she saw these poisonous weeds, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. These poisonous weeds are a deadly threat to ordinary people, but for Youyou, who is proficient in pharmacology, they are rare treasures. They can be used to make some poisons, which may play an unexpected role at a critical moment. So Youyou quickly took out a pair of gloves from her waist. The gloves were made of special materials that could resist most toxins. She squatted down and carefully picked the poisonous weeds and put them into the backpack one by one. She carefully observed each one she picked to make sure that no valuable parts were missed.
In this dangerous area, Youyou's goal is to find the Sacred Heart Grass. Sacred Heart Grass is an extremely precious herb. It grows very small and is often hidden in the grass or corners, making it difficult to be found. It is said that it takes fifty years for a Sacred Heart Grass to grow, and each plant contains huge medicinal power. When it matures, it will emit a charming fragrance, which is like a dreamlike melody and can attract many unknown things. Therefore, Youyou must pick it immediately after it matures and then leave quickly, otherwise once those unknown things are attracted, the consequences will be disastrous.
Sacred Heart Grass has a unique growth habit. It likes dark and humid places and hates sunlight. Moreover, it usually grows on cliffs, which is a place that ordinary people cannot reach. Youyou continued to move forward. With her rich experience, she carefully observed the surrounding environment. Based on the moisture level of the soil, she judged that she would reach the swamp if she walked forward. The swamp seemed calm on the surface, but it was actually full of dangers. Once you fall into it, it would be difficult to get out. However, after the swamp is a cliff, the Sacred Heart Grass must be there. Thinking of this, Youyou's eyes became more determined, and she quickened her pace and moved towards her goal.
As she moved forward, Youyou remained alert at all times. She knew that this area was full of unknown dangers, and every step could be a test of life and death. But she did not back down, because she had a firm belief in her heart that she must find the Sacred Heart Grass. She believed that as long as she was careful, she would be able to overcome many difficulties and achieve her goal.
Finally, Youyou arrived at the edge of the swamp. The swamp exuded a pungent smell, and the surface was covered with a layer of green duckweed, making it difficult to see what was below. Youyou stopped and carefully observed the terrain of the swamp. She was looking for a safe path that would allow her to pass through this dangerous area smoothly. Her eyes scanned the swamp, not missing any details.
Youyou stopped and frowned, thinking about how to safely cross this obstacle. She bent down and carefully picked up a fist-sized stone. She weighed the stone in her hand, her eyes determined, and then she swung her arm vigorously and threw the stone into the center of the swamp.
With a "plop", the small stone fell into the swamp. In an instant, the seemingly calm swamp made a "gulp gulp" sound like an awakened beast. The sound was dull and rhythmic, as if it was the heartbeat from deep in the earth. At the same time, bubbles kept coming out of the surface of the swamp. The bubbles were of different sizes. Some burst as soon as they came out, while others slowly rose to the surface of the water before disappearing with a "plop". What was even more creepy was that a strange sound came from deep underground. The sound was like the wailing of countless wronged souls, and also like the roar of an ancient beast, which made people shudder.
Youyou stared at the swamp without blinking, watching the small stone being swallowed up by the swamp until it completely disappeared. After a long while, the swamp finally returned to calm, as if everything just now was just an illusion. But Youyou knew that this swamp was definitely not simple. She sighed softly and thought to herself: It seems that I can't get through the swamp. I don't know how many dangers are hidden below. If I step in rashly, I might be swallowed up forever by this terrible swamp.
Youyou began to look around, trying to find other ways to get through. Suddenly, her eyes fell on a few willow trees not far away. Those willow trees hung down long willow branches, swaying gently in the breeze, as if waving to her. Youyou's eyes lit up, and she had a bold idea in her mind: it seemed that she could use the willow branches to swing across, and with the light skills she had practiced hard every day, she should be able to reach the other side smoothly.
Thinking of this, Youyou walked quickly to the willow tree. She reached out and grabbed a willow branch, pulling it hard, feeling its firmness. The branch just swayed slightly under her pulling, and there was no sign of breaking. Youyou nodded, with a relieved smile on her face: Yes, this willow branch should be able to bear my weight.
So, Youyou took a deep breath, held the willow branch tightly with both hands, pushed the ground with both legs, and flew out like a light swallow. She kept adjusting her posture in the air, using the skills of Qinggong to swing higher and farther. Seeing that she was about to reach the other side, Youyou was delighted. However, at this critical moment, an accident happened. With a "click", the willow branch in her hand suddenly broke. Youyou's smile froze on her face in an instant, and her body lost support and fell straight into the swamp.
Youyou was filled with despair. She waved her arms desperately, trying to grab something to steady herself, but to no avail. She was about to fall into the terrible swamp. At this critical moment, a strange wind suddenly blew from nowhere. The wind came very suddenly and was very strong. It blew Youyou up in an instant. Youyou felt that her body was light and fluttering, as if it was held up by an invisible big hand, rising slowly in the air. She widened her eyes in surprise, and her heart was full of doubts: Where did this strange wind come from? Could it be that God was secretly helping me?
As soon as he entered 103 of this small world, he lost contact with Youyou. After finally getting in touch with her, he saw that Youyou was almost dead. In a moment of desperation, he created a wind to blow Youyou up, otherwise he would not be able to see Youyou again. It was really a pity for him. Alas, the laws of this world suppressed him. He finally got rid of them, but then he encountered this incident again.
