Dream Guide - #412 - Chapter 412 Don’t leave anyone behind
The whining sounds of groups of savages came one after another from a distance.
Judging from the direction and distance of the sound, the cave they were in now was safe. It must be said that although Anderson was poisoned, the escape route he chose was very reasonable, and Petru successfully led the savage in another direction.
Aoki picked up some branches and put them into the cave and lit a fire. Anderson’s situation seems to have improved. He has learned the identities of Aoki and Su Huilan and their names.
“Thank you!” he said.
Su Huilan said: “You better not say anything and let Alice help you change the dressing later.”
Anderson smiled bitterly: “My own body knows that I have been deeply poisoned. Without an antidote, it is impossible to survive. You can take Alice away and leave me alone!”
“No, Anderson! No!” Alice cried and looked at Su Huilan, “Professor Su, he won’t die. You said he won’t die, right?! Please save him! “
Su Huilan knew that Anderson was right. The drugs she used could only slow down the spread of toxicity and prevent acute organ failure caused by poisoning, but the damage to the nervous system and internal organs did not stop. If she could not get more effective Without medical treatment, he would not have lasted twenty-four hours.
She was thinking about how to tell Alice the truth tactfully, but she heard Aoki say: “Don’t worry, he will be saved. We will not leave anyone on this island.”
Su Huilan looked at him in surprise, wondering why he said this. Was it just a white lie to comfort Alice? But this doesn’t seem to be in line with Aoki’s character.
Alice’s eyes lit up, and she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, “You mean, don’t leave anyone behind? Including… including…” She suddenly felt that her request was a bit too much, lowered her head, and her voice became louder. Coming smaller and smaller, “…Including Mrs. Larry…”
Aoki nodded and said, “Of course, as long as she is still alive, we will not abandon her.”
Alice looked at Aoki gratefully. Mrs. Larry’s matter had been weighing on her heart like a mountain. The lady might still be alive, but she was unable to save her and could only run away in order to survive. She wanted to save Mrs. Larry more than once, but her reason told her that it was in vain, and the Mrs. never wanted her to do so. If Alice leaves the island alive, she will live in pain and self-blame for the rest of her life. Now, Aoki’s words gave her hope. The pain and pressure were finally shared with someone, and she felt a lot more relaxed.
“Thank you, thank you, sir, you are such a good man!” she said.
Anderson also looked at Aoki with gratitude, but his eyes revealed that he was simply grateful and had no hope of living. He regarded Aoki’s words as comfort to Alice.
The howling of the savages in the distant mountains and forests continued. Although it sounded farther away, the number of people seemed to be increasing. This made everyone feel anxious, wondering how many savages there were on the island.
Su Huilan discovered that Aoki didn’t just say it casually, and knew that he had made up his mind. Once this lazy and unkempt guy made a decision, no one could change it.
“What can you do?” Su Huilan asked.
Her question was obviously about Anderson’s injury. There was no medicine, and the camp was thousands of miles away. The most important thing was that they were still trapped on the island and didn’t know when they could leave.
“You just said that he was poisoned by curare. I know about curare. When I was in southern Yunnan, I heard people there talk about it. There is a kind of grass called red-backed bamboo pole, which can restrain the poison of curare. .”
Qingmu remembered that when he was in Mangdian, the medicine woman’s dream was full of various herbs, and she even transformed into the image of Medicine Buddha. Such hypnosis methods are indeed very good at bluffing people, but unfortunately she met Qingmu. . At that time, the medicine woman also fantasized about taking Qingmu as her disciple. In her dream, she showed many precious medicinal materials, such as Gastrodia elata, Dendrobium, Ganoderma lucidum, etc. Among them were red-backed bamboo pole and curare wood.
Of course, Su Huilan didn’t know about Qingmu’s experience, and said: “The poison in Anderson is similar to curare, but it is not necessarily the same. Curare is mainly distributed in low-altitude rainforests in South Asia and South America. I observed this The vegetation and plant distribution on the island are very different from those on the mainland. Many plants are unique here. I have never seen them or seen them in books. There is a high probability that there will be no such things as red-backed bamboo poles here. “
Qingmu said: “I don’t understand biology and chemistry, but I know the principle that one thing can overcome another thing. Generally, there must be something that can overcome it nearby. The red-backed bamboo poles in Mangdian grow on the side of the curare tree. All around. No matter what kind of poison the savages use, as long as we find the plant from which they took the poison, we will be able to find an antidote to suppress it in the surroundings.”
Su Huilan said: “Your analysis makes sense, but most people don’t know things like red-backed bamboo poles unless they are local old people and herbal collectors. Even if we know what kind of poison the savages on the island use, so what? How can you tell which of the hundreds of plants around you is the antidote?”
Aoki said: “Of course we don’t know, but they definitely know.”
“Them?” Of course Su Huilan knew that Qingmu was talking about the savages on the island, but why would the savages tell you? Moreover, the language barrier makes it impossible to even catch a person for torture. The only way is to guide the subconscious mind to search for relevant memories through dreams. However, the existence of the spiritual energy field on the island makes those savages immune to hypnosis.
If you can’t be hypnotized, how can you fall asleep?
Aoki lit a cigarette and smoked it hissingly. The others looked at him, as if searching for hope in the white smoke that came out of his mouth.
At this time, a gunshot suddenly came from the distant mountain forest, followed by a series of gunshots.
Alice was startled.
Su Huilan explained: “They are our people.” Then she said to herself worriedly, “Are you getting angry?”
She had never been worried about Petru, because this guy was very slippery and had been hunted for so many years without any problems. A few savages should not be able to do anything to him. But if you are not using sniper rifles to fight guerrilla warfare, but fighting savages in close combat, even if you have automatic weapons in your hands, it is difficult to say that there will be no danger.
After the gunshots, the roar of the savages disappeared. They may have been frightened by the strong firepower of the automatic rifles.
Qingmu said to Su Huilan: “You stay and take care of them.” After saying that, he threw half of the cigarette in his hand on the ground, “Boss Coal, follow me!”
“where to?”
“Go and help Petru, and catch two alive savages back!”
