Chapter 2105 Corrosive Water
Chapter 2105 Corrosive Water
Uncle Yan's words made Wan Shufang stunned, and she gave up the idea of testing the water first. She nodded slightly, turned and walked into the woods, shot down a bird and threw it into the lake.
After a few "sizzling" sounds, the bird didn't even have time to scream before it was completely corroded in an instant, without even a bone left!
The lake water once again became as clear as a mirror.
This strange scene frightened Yan Que'an so much that he took several steps back. "Fortunately, my uncle reminded us. This lake is really weird. The bird was thrown into the lake and there was no trace of its body left."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang also frowned and turned to look at the old man: "Uncle Yan, there is something wrong with the lake water. What should we do now?"
"It is indeed here." Old Man Yan murmured, and suddenly looked at Wan Shufang seriously: "The lake water will corrode things. If I am not mistaken, the dragon bone is here."
"There is a thousand-year-old snow anaconda here. Its spine is the most important medicinal ingredient, which is the dragon bone you are looking for. If I am right, it should be in the center of the lake..."
Uncle Yan turned his eyes and looked at the center of the lake with worry. His eyes were full of regret. "What a pity. The lake water cannot go down. The snow anaconda will never appear. Even if it appears, no one can defeat it. With the abilities of the three of us, we can't get the dragon bone at all. We will just die in vain."
As soon as these words were spoken, Yan Que'an and Wan Shufang's faces changed drastically, and they looked worried. Only Chen Changli looked at the lake with curiosity, feeling anxious. If Wan Shufang hadn't been holding his hand, he would have wanted to play in the water.
Looking at the sparkling lake, Chen Changli suddenly pulled Wan Shufang's hand and said, "Sister, sister, can we go play in the water?"
"You can't go there. It's dangerous. You just stay by my side." Wan Shufang reached out and touched his head. Seeing Chen Changli like this, her eyes were full of heartache. She opened her red lips and said, "So, no one can get the dragon bone?"
Hearing the frustration in Wan Shufang's tone, Yan Que'an felt a pain in his heart. If it weren't for him, Chen Changli wouldn't have been poisoned. Thinking of this, he felt guilty and uneasy: "Sister, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. He and my father were poisoned."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang shook her head and said calmly: "Feng Yaotiao is cunning and scheming. In the end, this matter is not your fault. But is there really no way to deal with this dragon bone?"
Wan Shufang said this while looking at Uncle Yan. Facing her burning gaze, the old man just sighed and said, "You'd better go back. No one in this world can take away the dragon bones."
"Que'an, stop looking for dragon bones. You guys, just go back to where you came from." He patted Que'an's shoulder, turned around and wanted to leave, but the two people behind him did not move.
Uncle Yan frowned and turned to look at them: "Let's go down the mountain."
"No, I can't leave. I need to get the dragon bone and detoxify Changli."
Wan Shufang's eyes were determined as she stared intently at the center of the lake. She looked as if she had already seen the dragon's bones and was determined to get them.
"You are crazy!"
"Hmph, if you don't leave, you'll die. Que'an, let's go." The old man snorted coldly, came over and grabbed Yan Que'an and was about to leave. Yan Que'an was a descendant of the Yan family, and he couldn't just ignore him.
But Wan Shufang's life or death was not within his jurisdiction.
But Yan Que'an did not move, his feet were firmly rooted in the same place, his expression was complicated and firm: "Uncle, I can't go back either, I want to get the dragon bone and save my father."
His tone was serious and his words were genuine. After all, his father was one of the poisoned people, and the dragon bone had to be taken.
Neither of them wanted to leave, which made Uncle Yan very angry. His face turned red and he couldn't speak for a long time.
After holding it in for a long time, he finally blurted out a rebuke: "You, you, are simply young and ignorant, and you don't know what you are talking about."
After he finished speaking, Yan Que'an looked guilty. Just as he was about to say something to appease his uncle, an eagle suddenly landed with a note tied to its feet.
Wan Shufang recognized that this was a special messenger eagle.
Uncle Yan took the letter and after reading it, his expression suddenly became solemn. He raised his head, looked between the two of them, and finally sighed: "Forget it, if you want to stay, then stay."
"I have something else to do and I have to leave first. I won't argue with you anymore." After saying that, the old man was about to leave. Before leaving, he reminded her again: "Girl, there is no need to risk your life for the dragon bone."
"Thank you Uncle Yan for your concern, but I must get the dragon bone."
Hearing this, Uncle Yan shook his head and said nothing more. He just said to Yan Que'an: "Que'an, come with me. I have something to tell you."
After he finished speaking, he walked to the side. Yan Que'an hesitated for a moment, worried that Uncle Yan was going to talk about the lake, so he strode over.
The two men stood in the distance, whispering in each other's ears. Wan Shufang could only see their silhouettes but could not hear their voices. She frowned and pulled Chen Changli to sit on the grass.
Over there, after the two of them finished whispering for a while, Yan Que'an ran over quickly. He scratched the back of his head guiltily and said in an awkward tone: "Sister, I...I may have to go back with my uncle first. There are things to deal with over there."
Hearing Yan Que'an suddenly change his mind, Wan Shufang frowned in confusion. Although she felt it was strange, she did not stop him. She just waved her hand and said, "Okay, be careful on your way."
After giving some instructions, she continued to look at the lake, lowering her head to think about countermeasures. She didn't care whether Yan Que'an and Uncle Yan stayed or not. She only cared about the dragon bones and the poison in Chen Changli's body.
"Good sister, I will definitely come to you soon, and you should be careful."
Wan Shufang nodded, and after watching Uncle Yan and Yan Que'an leave, she sat on the shore and thought of a way to get the dragon bone. Until it was almost dark, Wan Shufang had not thought of any plan.
She sighed softly, her face full of sorrow, but a pair of big hands held her cheeks.
"Sister, are you unhappy?"
Touching the worry in Chen Changli's clear eyes, Wan Shufang's heart softened, and she comforted him softly: "No, sister is just thinking about something."
"Since we can't think of a solution for the time being, we might as well fight a protracted war. Changli, come on, I'll take you to find some vines to build a house."
"Great, let's build a house." Chen Changli cheered. He really didn't want to just sit on the grass. The two of them walked into the woods, cut branches and vines, and brought them back to build the house.
Soon, the simple wooden house was built by Wan Shufang, and she took Chen Changli in.
"Chen Changli, how about we live here from now on?"
"Okay, I like wherever my sister is." Chen Changli's eyes were bright. He hugged Wan Shufang affectionately and rubbed against her.
Wan Shufang was amused by this "old child" and gently hugged him back. The atmosphere was warm. At night, the two of them lay on the grass, looking at the stars together and chatting about everything.
