“I was going to find the antidote, not the treasure. How long can it take?”
Ye Feng walked in front of Lan Xingyue and checked her condition.
After such a short period, the poison in her calf had subsided a lot, and her complexion was much better than before.
He waited for a while more until the poison was completely removed. Then, he chewed the few herbs he had picked into his mouth. He applied them to her calf and wrapped them with gauze.
Finally, he took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket and shook out a pill.
This was the antidote that he had brewed himself before he came to Jiangzuo.
After all, he was here to search for the Xiang King’s secret treasure, so it was inevitable that he would go to some deep mountains and forests. It was necessary to prepare some self-defense medicine.
He just didn’t expect it to come in handy so soon.
He opened Lan Xingyue’s mouth and threw the pill in. He then heaved a sigh of relief and sat down beside her.
“Is Sister Lan alright?” Zhuang Xiaoqiao walked over and handed him a bottle of mineral water. She then asked carefully.
“Let’s do our best and leave it to fate. This is all we can do.” Ye Feng took the mineral water and drank a big mouthful, dispelling some of the heat in his body.
The members of the exploration team looked at Lan Xingyue worriedly.
The only thing they could do now was to wait for her to wake up.
Time passed bit by bit.
Lan Xingyue didn’t wake up until about two o’clock in the afternoon.
“Sister Lan, you’re finally awake?” Zhuang Xiaoqiao had been standing guard at the side and noticed it immediately.
The members of the exploration team also gathered around, overjoyed.
Lan Xingyue struggled to sit up, she looked at the bandage on her calf and quickly found Ye Feng in the crowd. “Thank you.”
She knew that it was Ye Feng who saved her life.
However, she wasn’t very good with words. Although she was extremely grateful, she couldn’t say those mushy words of thanks.
Ye Feng only nodded lightly, seeing that her expression was not too good, he suggested, “I think we can’t complete the exploration mission this time, we should leave and send you to the hospital.”
The others nodded in agreement.
However, Lan Xingyue shook her head and objected. “Our destination is not far away. If we retreat now, wouldn’t we have wasted our trip? It’s okay, I can hold on.”
Ye Feng was speechless. “You can do the exploration mission again at any time, if you lose your life, you won’t have another chance.”
“I’m fine now. Let’s continue.”
Lan Xingyue stood up with the help of two exploration team members. Although she still felt weak, she was much better than when she was poisoned.
Ye Feng could not help but shake his head. “What a crazy woman.”
Lan Xingyue heard Ye Feng’s ridicule, and a trace of displeasure flashed across her face.
However, on account of his life-saving grace, she did not argue with him and began to organize the team members to move the equipment.
Ye Feng saw that she was so insistent, so he did not persuade her anymore.
Fortunately, the poison in her body had been cleared. Although her body was still very weak, her life was no longer in danger.
Since she insisted, then let her be.
The group of people packed up their equipment and continued to move toward their destination.
Just as Lan Xingyue had said, they finally arrived at their destination after walking for about two kilometers.
Lan Xingyue leaned against a tree and began to instruct her team members to set up equipment and prepare to drill holes for exploration.
Ye Feng took the opportunity to activate the system’s deep scanning function.
All the information within a thousand meters was presented in front of him.
When he finished reading the information, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
He turned around and walked to Lan Xingyue. “I advise you not to waste your energy. There are no silver mines here.”
“We haven’t even started the exploration yet. How do you know?” Lan Xingyue frowned slightly, obviously not believing him.
“I… I’ve learned some feng shui secret techniques. I can judge the geological situation of the area according to the geographical distribution…” Ye Feng started to spout nonsense.
Lan Xingyue snorted before he could finish listening. “I only believe in science, not superstition.”
“I don’t like what you’re saying. What’s superstition?” Ye Feng wanted to continue arguing with her, but Lan Xingyue ignored his nonsense and walked away.
The exploration team used the method of electrical exploration, which was to use the spatial and temporal distribution law of the electromagnetic field of the ore in the earth’s crust to find useful minerals.
Although the work wasn’t very complicated, the workload was huge.
They needed to place the measuring cable first, and this step alone took more than half an hour.
The next step was to bury the measuring poles into the ground, which took another half an hour.
Then, they began to monitor the distribution of the underground mineral veins.
“I’ve already told you that the silver ore reserves underground here are very rare and difficult to mine. There’s no value in mining here at all. You’re wasting your time.”
At this time, Ye Feng walked over again and said some sarcastic words to Lan Xingyue.
Lan Xingyue couldn’t take it anymore and immediately glared at him. “What did we say before we came? Listen to my commands. You can either go and help bury the poles or go to the side to rest. Don’t disturb our work.”
“Alright, you guys can do whatever you want. I’ll go elsewhere.”
Seeing that she did not listen to him, Ye Feng did not bother to waste his breath, he immediately called over Zhuang Xiaoqiao and walked into the depths of the forest.
“Don’t go too far, there’s danger in this forest.” Lan Xingyue was worried about them and hurriedly reminded them.
“Mind your own business. I don’t know who was bitten by a poisonous snake, so someone else had to come and save her.” Ye Feng mocked without turning his head.
Lan Xingyue was so angry that her teeth itched, but she was helpless. He did save her life.
She could only give in temporarily if she owed someone a life-saving favor.
This forest was usually deserted, but it retained a lot of the unique scenery of the primitive forest.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was having a lot of fun. She took a selfie from time to time and was just short of carving “I visited here” on the tree.
Ye Feng was not as carefree as her, he had activated the scanning function the entire time, and he wanted to see if there was anything valuable in this forest.
But in the end, he was disappointed.
Along the way, he had seen many old trees that were hundreds of years old. He had also seen many kinds of medicinal herbs. In addition, he had seen wild rabbits, pheasants, and wild boars. However, he had not seen anything of value.
Not to mention silver ores, there were not even water ores.
In the end, he only picked a few rare herbs before returning with Zhuang Xiaoqiao.
They had been gone for about an hour. Lan Xingyue and the others had probably finished their investigation.
As expected, when the two of them returned, they saw Lan Xingyue and the others sitting there dejectedly.
