Chapter 365 The Fruit Picked by Qisheng
Chu Xiaomu looked at the man's legs covered with golden hair and knew that it was the beast spirit, the Golden Wood Bear.
Although the Golden Bear was a little stupid, he was kind and gentle. Chu Xiaomu was naturally very grateful for saving his life. He wanted to stand up and say hello, but he had no strength in his body, so he had to give up.
There was a loud bang, and the ground shook slightly. It turned out that the golden bear had put the tree on the ground. Then there was a loud crash, and the red and yellow wild fruits rolled all over the ground.
The golden bear leaned his back against the tree and rubbed it slowly for a while, then said in a rough voice: "Alas, a lot of the fruits are broken, but it doesn't affect the taste. You are in for a treat, eat it quickly!"
Chu Xiaomu didn't hesitate to pick up an unbroken yellow fruit and started to eat it. It was soft and sweet, with a rich fruity aroma and was very delicious.
He knew that with his injury, he needed to eat something to nourish his body. After eating one, he still had some strength left, so he forced himself to eat another one.
But he was still seriously injured and had no appetite. After eating two, he could not eat any more and lay down on the haystack, unwilling to move.
The golden bear's mouth was drooling. He gently kicked Chu Xiaomu with his foot and said, "Eat more. Why don't you eat anymore?"
Chu Xiaomu shook his head slightly and said, "I'm full and can't eat anymore."
The golden bear laughed, sounding very happy. Then he sat down on the ground, picked up the fruits one by one and stuffed them into his mouth, saying as he ate, "If you don't eat them, I will. These delicious fruits... The fruits in the Beast Mountain have been much less in the past two years than in previous years, and the taste is not as good. I don't know what's wrong."
Chu Xiaomu noticed that Qisheng was not beside him, and asked hurriedly, "Where's Qisheng? Where's my pony? Where did it go?"
As the golden bear ate, he said, "I haven't seen him since early this morning. He must have run back to Green City. I heard that horses can remember the way home. Hey... I can't do that. If I don't walk there 20 or 30 times, I won't be able to remember it at all!"
Chu Xiaomu thought, it is impossible for Qisheng to leave and go back to Bicheng alone. Even in Bicheng, it always sticks to me, how can it leave alone at this time? Maybe it went out to eat grass. I didn't take good care of it these days, and it must be starving.
Although Qisheng was growing fast, he was still only a one-year-old foal after all. Chu Xiaomu couldn't help but worry about him. However, he was seriously injured and powerless, so he couldn't do anything about it. He could only comfort himself by saying that Qisheng was very smart since he was a child and could run over to him even if he couldn't fight against danger.
Just as he was daydreaming, Qisheng rushed in from outside, causing a gust of wind, which scared Jin Xiong and Chu Xiaomu who were inside the house.
The half-asleep white-haired old ape sitting in a corner also opened his eyes, knocked on the strange person who came flying in, and then half-closed his eyes again.
It was holding a four-inch long slender fruit in its mouth. It gently placed it next to Chu Xiaomu's head and made two humming sounds, apparently asking him to eat it.
The fruit is so white that it is almost transparent. It is thick in the middle and pointed at both ends. It is slightly curved, somewhat similar to a weaving shuttle and has a rather strange appearance.
Chu Xiaomu naturally didn't know what it was, so he asked Golden Bear: "What kind of fruit is this? Can I eat it?"
Golden Bear shook his head and said, "Is this a fruit? I have never seen it before. We definitely don't have this kind of thing in Beast Mountain. Boy, don't eat it carelessly. If you get poisoned, it's no joke."
The white-haired old ape snorted and said nothing. No one knew what he meant.
Qisheng purred twice again and touched Chu Xiaomu's hand with his mouth, obviously asking him to pick up the fruit and eat it.
Chu Xiaomu suddenly remembered something. At that time, when they were still in the square inch room of Shisantai, Huang Jieshi held his hand and said, "In the future, you must eat what Cheng Huang tells you to eat." Isn't this strange fruit in front of me what Qisheng told me to eat?
Thinking of the wood spirit fruit that Cheng Huang asked him to eat before his reincarnation, and how he gained wood spiritual power as a result, Chu Xiaomu was overjoyed. He picked up the fruit and started eating it without caring whether it was poisonous or not.
This fruit looks juicy from the outside, but it is hard to describe when you put it in your mouth. Not only is it dry and tasteless, but it also feels prickly and numb when it touches your tongue, as if there are millions of small thorns gently pricking your mouth. The taste is really weird and extremely unpalatable.
But this is the fruit that Qisheng picked for himself, and Qisheng is a very capable person!
Chu Xiaomu gritted his teeth and took bites of the strange fruit, slowly chewing it into pieces and swallowing it.
Like the wood spirit fruit, this fruit has no core, but it is far less sweet and refreshing than the wood spirit fruit.
After eating all the fruit, I gradually felt something growing slowly in my stomach. A strange feeling split into two parts, one rushed straight to my forehead, and the other instantly spread to my toes. It was as if a crack had grown in my body and was getting longer and longer.
Slowly, Chu Xiaomu began to feel that his limbs were out of control. His body stiffened little by little. He cried out inwardly, "Oh no! This fruit that Qisheng found is really poisonous!" He wanted to shout out, but his mouth seemed to have nothing to do with him and no sound came out.
Then he involuntarily straightened his body and began to shake violently.
The white-haired old ape heard something strange and opened his eyes. He saw Chu Xiaomu shaking strangely. He slowly crawled over to check but couldn't see anything. He was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
The Golden Bear continued to eat the wild fruits he had picked, and said nonchalantly: "I told him that the fruit was poisonous, but he didn't believe it... I'll teach you a method that is the most effective in detoxifying..." As he spoke, he stuffed the last smashed fruit into his mouth.
The white-haired old ape angrily said, "Your method is useless! Did you, a stupid bear, feed him?"
The golden bear stared at Qisheng with its innocent black eyes, pointed at him and said, "It didn't eat the fruit I picked up, but the fruit it picked up that made it like this."
The white-haired old ape didn't believe it at all. He glared at the golden bear and said, "Even horses can pick fruits for people to eat. We have never seen such a strange thing in the Beast Mountain!" Then he rolled his eyes at Chu Xiaomu, raised his mouth and dug his tongue, but it was impossible to tell what kind of poison he had been infected with.
But the Golden Bear said nonchalantly: "If he really dies, there is nothing we can do. My king only told us to keep a good eye on him, but he didn't say that he couldn't die."
Fortunately, Chu Xiaomu stopped shaking after a while and did not die immediately, causing the two beast spirits to worry for a long time in vain.
He himself was puzzled, wondering why Qisheng wanted him to eat such a strange and unpalatable fruit. Could it be a spiritual fruit? But the wood spiritual fruit tasted very good.
Not long after, Chu Xiaomu began to feel the stinging pain from the maggots biting the wound on his back, and couldn't help but cry out.
The white-haired old ape crawled to his side, removed the maggots one by one and put them into a stone bowl, covered it with a stone slab, and then applied a mashed plaster on the injured area on Chu Xiaomu's back.
This ointment was very cool and Chu Xiaomu's pain was greatly reduced. He fell into a deep sleep soon.
