The elder looked at Lin Long joyfully, "Thank you, Sir."
Although the others did not say thank you, Lin Long was naturally able to see their grateful expressions.
"No need." Lin Long replied indifferently.
"Then I'll trouble you to give us the antidote. After we verify it, we'll agree to your conditions." the elder asked.
"Right." Lin Long nodded, then took the pen the elder had prepared beforehand and started writing on a piece of paper.
Not long later, Lin Long finished writing on the recipe. However, what he wrote was not his own recipe for the detoxification pill, but a kind of common antidote that was common in the world. The effects of the poison powder made from this formula could not even compare to Lin Long's detoxification pill.
However, it would be easier to find the materials to do so, and the process of concocting the ingredients would not be too troublesome.
A Ying took Lin Long's recipe and read it seriously for a while before looking at the elder and nodding his head.
The elder took the recipe that A Ying gave him, and after glancing at it once, he said to the young man who was feeding it to him, "Ah Guo, bring these ingredients over."
Seeing how relaxed they were, it was clear that they could easily find all of Lin Long's medicinal ingredients.
After the herbs were brought over, A Ying began to carefully refine them according to the formula that Lin Long gave him.
However, it was clear that her technique and character was not good enough. There were mistakes on several occasions, and she only managed to react and correct them when Lin Long pointed out the situation on the side.
Although his basics were lacking, his perception was not bad. Lin Long nodded slightly.
After spending a lot of time and with Lin Long's constant corrections, A Ying was finally able to concoct a portion of the medicinal powder.
After concocting the medicinal powder, naturally someone would have to experiment with it. Otherwise, how would it be able to detect the medicinal effect?
Such an experiment was bound to be dangerous.
However, there were many brave ones among the people around him. Before the elder could say anything, three people stood forward. The elder then chose the person with the best physique to take the test.
The testing process was very simple. First, he cut a hole in the tester's body, and then spread the remaining rat poison on the wound. After the rat poison reacted, he would let the tester take the powder and then see how the effect was.
After applying the rat poison onto the testing drug's wound, the rat poison quickly reacted. Seeing the testing drug's uncomfortable look, the surrounding people all started to get nervous.
Fortunately, after consuming the medicinal powder concocted by A Ying, her symptoms of poisoning had quickly improved.
Only then did everyone relax, they completely believed in the effects of Lin Long's antidote.
Although the detoxification speed of A Ying's powder was clearly slower than Lin Long's, no one took it to heart. They only thought that it was because A Ying didn't have enough skill, but they didn't know that it was simply because Lin Long had taken out another formula.
At this time, the elder looked at A Ying and asked, "A Ying, do you remember what you taught me?"
"A Ying was so slow that she had not yet learned everything." A Ying said as she looked at Lin Long awkwardly.
"Then would Mister mind teaching A Ying for a while longer?" the elder asked.
"I don't mind." Lin Long said.
Lin Long knew that although this normal detoxification powder's refining method was much simpler than the other detoxification pills, it was still very complicated, especially for someone like A Ying who had a weak foundation. Therefore, it was already quite rare for A Ying to be able to do that, to only need one or two times to master the refining method of this ordinary detoxification powder.
"Seeing that Lin Long did not object, the elder said happily," Thank you, sir. "
The elder then called the people he brought along, leaving behind Ah Liang and the other guards.
After that, he taught A Ying for a period of time before he completely grasped the method to refine a normal poison antidote. Although he was not proficient in it yet, he was still able to refine it by himself.
"Thank you, sir." When he truly mastered the method to refine the poison antidote powder, A Ying said to Lin Long gratefully.
When she said these words, she did not conceal the feeling of parting from Lin Long. It was because she knew that after she mastered the method of refining, it would be time to part with Lin Long, because her clansmen would not allow Lin Long to stay in the clan as a guest.
Although she had only been with Lin Long for a short period of time, Lin Long's knowledge and temperament in all aspects were hard for her to forget.
When they received the news, the elder and the others who were waiting outside immediately came in.
After expressing his gratitude again, the elder said, "Since Mister's recipe has such an effect, then our tribe will fulfill our previous promise and bring Mister to the Black Cloud Cave." "Logically speaking, I should have asked you to stay for a short period of time. However, you should have known the reason, so I didn't mention it."
Lin Long nodded his head to show that he understood.
"Grandfather, I want to go too." Just then, A Ying suddenly said.
"A Ying, it's dangerous outside. You should stay in the tribe." The elder immediately frowned.
"No, Grandfather, I will send you on your way no matter what." A Ying said resolutely.
He looked as if he wouldn't rest until he had achieved his goal.
The elder seemed to have never seen A Ying like this before. He could not help but be stunned, and in the end, could only nod his head helplessly.
Just like this, a dozen warriors of the tribe, including A Ying, immediately set out to escort Lin Long to the Black Cloud Cave.
Even though it was called an escort, it was actually just a escort, because the people from the tribe didn't trust Lin Long to leave on his own. In their eyes, only by seeing Lin Long walk into the Black Cloud Cave with their own eyes would they be able to relax.
The one leading the group was the one that led him, Ah Chong, from yesterday. The way Ah Chong looked at Lin Long seemed to be filled with caution, and he basically did not dare to approach Lin Long. Even if he spoke, he was more than ten meters away from Lin Long.
Although the others weren't exaggerating, it was about the same.
Only A Ying was very, very close to her, so close that Lin Long could smell the unique scent of her body. On the other hand, A Ying was like a diligent and good student as she kept on asking Lin Long questions.
This kind of situation naturally made Ah Liang, who came along, jealous and envious, but he could only secretly feel discontent, and did not dare to express it. Other than fearing that A Ying would be displeased, she was more afraid of the strength that she had displayed earlier.
After all, Ah Chong could be said to be one of the strongest people in the tribe, but he couldn't even block a single punch from Lin Long. This showed just how powerful Lin Long was, something couldn't even be compared to him.
At this time, A Ying turned to Lin Long and said with a smile, "Sir, we are not far from the Black Cloud Cave. We will arrive in fifteen minutes."
"Have you been here before?" Lin Long could not help but ask.
0
"Of course not." A Ying shook her head and said, "But the map of this world is already engraved in my heart."
Lin Long understood the other party's meaning, so he did not say anything.
After the last part of the journey, everyone became extremely cautious. They had been very careful before, but it was far from enough.
Lin Long did not need to ask to know the reason, because they had encountered more and more murine. Before, there were only a few, but now, almost all of them appeared wave after wave, and there were at least seven or eight of them.
However, these people did not look very surprised. Obviously, they had long known that there were a lot of murine on this journey.
"Sir, the closer we get to the Black Cloud Cave, the more murine there are. But don't worry, the more murine there are." Seemingly seeing through Lin Long's doubt, A Ying who was at the side said.
"Oh." Lin Long nodded his head to show that he understood.
But after walking for a bit, the number of murine had completely exceeded this range. There were no longer just seven or eight of them in each wave, sometimes there were even more than ten of them, which was almost double the number.
It was fine if there were more of them, but the attacking power of these murine had increased by a lot, and their eyes were bloodshot, seemingly restless. Upon seeing someone, they immediately pounced, no longer as cautious as before.
The change in circumstances immediately caused the expressions of Ah Chong and the others to change.
This way, it would be even more difficult for them to deal with the murine. It would not be a problem for them for a short period of time, but they would definitely be exhausted to death if it went on for too long.
"How did these murine suddenly become so powerful?" Someone called out anxiously, but no one could give him an answer.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, someone screamed out. Lin Long looked over and realised that a person was being held down by a murine.
The person at the side hurriedly swung his staff, sending the murine flying a few meters away.
Then, the man quickly spread some medicine on his calf and wrapped it in cloth.
As for A Ying, she quickly passed some of the antidote powder she had just made over to her.
The man took it and quickly consumed it.
This was only the beginning. Following that, more and more people were bitten by murine, although it was a small wound, but the rat poison was a big problem.
Although A Ying had refined some antidote powder previously, but it was not enough for development like this.
Seeing this, Lin Long took out his own antidote pills, passed seven to them and said, "Everyone take half of these, even those who have consumed the antidote powder given by A Ying will have to take it."
Although there were some questions in their hearts, the situation was urgent, so they did not waste any words, and just followed Lin Long's request and swallowed the antidote pill.
A Ying asked curiously, "Sir, why did you do this?"
Lin Long laughed, "Your detoxification powder is too weak. It would be difficult for it to suppress the effects of the rat poison in such a dense amount of attacking power, but my detoxification pill was able to do this."
Sure enough, after taking Lin Long's antidote pill, they immediately felt a lot more comfortable, and the feelings of those who took the antidote from A Ying became even more obvious.
Once the rat poison was suppressed, these people immediately stabilized their formation.
However, Lin Long knew that if this continued, the final outcome would be hard to change.
The only way to change the situation was to find the reason behind the change in these murine.
Although Lin Long did not think that he was able to notice this, his sharp eyes were still carefully observing his surroundings.
Suddenly, his eyes focused on a black figure that was clearly moving nearby.
With a thought, Lin Long threw the words "wait for me here" and rushed towards the black figure.
