Regarding Poseidon's long soldiers, the old man described it like this.
Because it happened so long ago, his memory is very vague. He vaguely remembered that it was a material that was not smooth. Although he had not touched it personally, it looked like a long and narrow, slightly twisted coral. Such a description is very similar to the texture they came into contact with. It may be a material unique to the Yasha clan. There is nothing special about its appearance. It looks like a halberd and is not very regular. Other than that, it has no other features. It may also be that it has been too long and the old man cannot remember clearly.
He saw it from the sea - he had a chance to escape with the fleet, but he didn't. At that time, the young and old people only wanted to make money for their families and supplement their family income. And because he was not a native of the seaside, he could not understand the changes in the climate, and he insisted on going his own way and refused to listen to advice, and eventually encountered a storm. He sank into the cold sea alone. In a daze, sparkling light seemed to be cast on the dark sea, and several Yakshas who moved very flexibly in the sea surrounded him. Those monsters seemed to be floating in the air, in the water, without any resistance and no need to breathe. One of the yakshas is holding a halberd, but he looks like the other yakshas. Then, he was surrounded by a glowing blue - and then he could breathe.
In fear, he followed Yaksha for some time, but he did not know which direction. In the end, he forgot how he lost consciousness. He only remembered that when he woke up, he was already lying on his bed at home, with his wife crying beside the bed. He slept for a whole day and was found on the beach by a child picking up shells after the storm. At that time, no god had yet come to this place. Presumably the gods have always existed, but have only appeared in recent years. Maybe, something is going to happen.
The old man's description was too broad, making it difficult for them to imagine what it was like. Besides, that night, they also came into contact with a lot of Yaksha's unique weapons, so those kinds of things shouldn't get mixed up among them. In the end, it has nothing to do with them. The old man said so much not to satisfy their curiosity, but to advise them to survive well in Jiutian Kingdom. He is a truly good person, but his appearance of being assimilated to Yaksha somewhat makes people doubt the authenticity of his words.
"Well, I don't think you can judge a book by its appearance." Qi Huan still said.
"Maybe because he is a human, he can only get a glimpse of the communication between Yaksha, but how he does it is unknown. I do believe that he is sincerely willing to help us. He gives me a feeling, like A traditional believer. They really believe that they are good-hearted. You see, although he is quite prejudiced against Yasha's identity as a divine envoy, he firmly believes in the Lord Poseidon he calls him."
Jun Aoyan's analysis was very clear, and Qi Huan nodded.
"But... generally speaking, since he only saw Yaksha when he was rescued, he should be full of respect for them. But his insistence that there is a real, invisible and intangible sea god still makes me feel strange."
"It really is some kind of spiritual communication, right? He can feel it..."
Back at the edge of the jungle, the two of us said something to each other. Bai Ya grabbed a piece of gray cake, sniffed it, and stuffed it into his mouth. This cake is very light and has a strange texture, like thin wood chips. Although it melts in your mouth, it is just a puddle of water and has no taste. After swallowing it, it makes people doubt that they have eaten anything.
"Is this... really edible?" Qi Huan was still hesitating.
"What else? You don't want to eat it for me. There are many ways to die in the South, and starvation is the one I least want to choose."
Qi Huan really wanted to say that he had diarrhea and died of diarrhea, so you just accepted it? But now is not the time for such jokes. He and Jun Ao looked at each other in confusion, then turned to look at Bai Ya. He tore less than half of it, then suddenly stopped eating and put away the remaining bread.
"What's wrong?" Aoyan asked.
"full."
If it were said that the lines were evenly distributed for the next meal, the two felt it would be more credible. They also picked off a small piece and stuffed it into their mouths. They didn't find it delicious or unpleasant. But within a few words, they realized that Bai Ya might be telling the truth. This thing doesn't look good, but it's quite filling.
"Don't think about those things that are there or not." Bai Ya leaned against the tree and started to clean the knife again, "Sleep. I will think of a way tomorrow. I have to go through the village or the woods. Go deep into the inland and find a normal place to investigate. The news... forget it, there is probably nothing normal about it. I hope other gods and their followers will be more tolerant."
"what happened?!"
Qi Huan suddenly shouted, and Bai Ya sat up straight and looked over. Qi Huan pointed at Jun Aoyan's neck and exclaimed. The moon moved to a perfect position, and the moonlight curved around the tree crown and fell on her shoulders. The injured left side was dark. Is it like this during the day?
Jun Aoyan didn't know why. Following his fingers, she discovered that her left shoulder felt a little stiff. She touched it and found that the material was caked, and she frowned in disgust.
"Oops, where are you going to wash this..."
Bai Ya suddenly jumped up, walked to her in a few steps, grabbed her arm with one hand and opened it, and grabbed her collar with the other hand. But he didn't tear it off with force, but carefully separated the material from the skin. Qi Huan, who was standing aside, heard a sticky sound. Although it might be a bit indecent, he still mustered up the courage, took a deep breath and walked over.
Black, sticky threads connected the fabric to her skin, like mud or oil. She had no experience of contact with these things. No matter what she thought, these liquids seeped out from the wounds.
A little bit of sleepiness disappeared. Jun Aoyan didn't mind, she didn't seem to be in pain, and instead explained to the two people.
"During the war, brothers suffered all kinds of injuries. It was also very common to be bitten by reptiles, flying insects and even venomous snakes." Her attitude was extremely serious. "Infection and ulceration are very common. If not treated in time, the flesh will rot. Scraping is also common.”
"How do you shave?" Bai Ya was a little annoyed, "I'll give you the knife and you shave. I don't think you'll shave off half of your body."
"Uh, Lao Bai, don't be so fierce..." Qi Huan hurriedly came to the rescue, "Look at Miss Jun, she doesn't feel any pain. She doesn't feel much, so it shouldn't be serious. Find out the current injury first, and then..."
"It's not serious?" Bai Ya suddenly yelled at him, "You call this not serious! All the Yin and Yang skills you learned were put into a dog's belly? Huh? Can the damage caused by monsters be compared to that of animals and weapons? By miasma, Have you never heard of the tragic situation of death caused by turbid gas infection?"
"Of course I have, I just don't want you to be so nervous..."
Jun Aoyan sat down, took off her thin armor, and pulled her arm out of her sleeve, revealing the injured part. Qi Huan found a piece of cloth and carefully wiped her large area of dark skin clean. Jun Aoyan thought he was too slow, so she grabbed the cloth and wiped it down hard along the lines of the wound. The original part of the skin is visible, but it's a little gray. I wonder if it's due to the light. The four scratches of different lengths were very eye-catching, and some strange mucus seeped out intermittently. The longest wound was the second one, which almost went around the back of the neck and extended down to the ribs. The shortest ones are also one turn long, spaced about an inch apart.
More black liquid seeped out very slowly, and after wiping it off, it took a long time for it to overflow. Bai Ya smelled the piece of cloth. There was no obvious rotten smell, only a faint fishy smell like the sea, and no smell of blood. Qi Huan never claimed to be a gentleman, but he also wouldn't stare at the girl's breasts all the time. He tried his best to avoid looking at things he shouldn't have looked at, focusing on the unusual wounds. After observing for a while, he felt a little sick.
"It's moving," he said. "Those wounds open and close."
"It's people moving." Bai Ya disagreed, "The heartbeat can also affect the internal organs. I'm worried that it will deteriorate into a more extreme situation... I have seen many people who died tragically, or who were worse off than dead."
Jun Aoyan's originally relaxed tone turned a little frightened: "Yeah, it's not..."
"It's better to pay more attention to it." Qi Huan looked away, "But what can we do? The medicinal materials are too limited. Many of them cannot be used after soaking in water, and we don't know the effect... Is it possible that we really have to catch one? Yaksha is coming?"
"Would it be useful to catch one?" Bai Ya asked seriously, "To force them to hand over the antidote? But we can't understand what they say, is this possible?"
"What you think is too simple. What do they want antidotes for...but some antidotes can be extracted from blood. But I have only tried to learn snake venom, and I have never tried monsters."
Bai Ya closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose, and tried his best to calm down and think calmly. Jun Aoyan looked left and right, wondering whether he should interrupt. She wanted to smooth things over and persuade them not to be so nervous, but she was afraid that Bai Ya would become more excited like before. His thoughts are always so unpredictable.
"I think it would be better to catch a monster, beat him up, and ask him where the Poseidon's halberd is. As long as he has that thing, he can be cured of whatever problem he has, right?"
Qi Huan hesitated: "But that old man..."
Jun Aoyan was surprisingly open-minded. She put her sleeves back on and put on her armor. Only the temporary reconciliation medicine given by Qi Huan was applied to the areas where the clothes were in contact with the skin. He said it would stop the pain and stop the bleeding, but she didn't feel any pain, and the bleeding was most likely not blood.
"It doesn't matter." Jun Aoyan said calmly, "There are also many people with congenital deformities who join the army. After training, they can also fight as soldiers with normal people. Furthermore, war often leaves people missing arms and legs, but Even if they become disabled, as long as they save a life, there are many warriors who can return to the battlefield. No matter whether they have more or less, the most important thing is habits. As long as this life is there, no scars or changes on the body will matter. It doesn’t matter.”
"Okay, I appreciate you."
After that, Bai Ya sat back under the original tree and fell down again. They all knew that it would be faster to go directly through this dangerous jungle than to grab something from Yasha, and the former would be full of unknowns. Bai Ya really doesn't delay things at all. Once he has a clear goal, he will execute it immediately. Just like now, knowing what to do tomorrow, I immediately fall down to sleep to replenish my strength. It can be seen that sleeping soundly is also an enviable skill. Although sometimes this ability can seem a little cold - and not just when it comes to sleeping.
Qi Huan got extra medicine and reminded Ao Yan to remember to change it tomorrow morning. He first kept vigil and refilled the bonfire. After the other two people closed their eyes, he looked at them silently and sighed softly.
Bai Shaoxia is also a real sweetheart. In comparison, the people who were at odds with Miss Jun at first seemed a bit strange. But whatever, that’s what this person is like. If he loses this sense of "separation", he will no longer be himself.
