Chapter 248 Will fire poison meow?
Aquatic plants are non-toxic.
The fallen sika deer had droopy eyelids and weak muscles all over their bodies, which is an obvious sign of food poisoning.
"Save my herd, two-legged beast." The male sika deer looked at Li Mu with moist eyes.
He was the leader of this group of deer. Seeing his deer lying on the ground and moaning, he felt helpless and put all his hopes on Li Mu.
"Don't worry, they're fine."
Li Mu touched the sika deer and comforted it, "I will treat them now."
There is plenty of time to find out what went wrong, but the poisoned sika deer cannot wait any longer.
Li Mu redeemed the antidote in the system mall, but could not find out the source of the poisoning of the deer, and he did not dare to drink water from the puddles.
He took out two bottles of mineral water from his bag, put the medicine in it, dissolved it, and fed it to each sika deer.
"Okay, they will recover after drinking the medicine." After feeding two bottles of water, Li Mu put away the bottles.
"Thank you!" The male sika deer showed gratitude in his eyes.
"You're welcome."
Li Mu waved his hand and looked at the sika deer leader, "Have you eaten the grass here?"
It was the only sika deer in the herd that was not poisoned.
"Eat."
"That's right." Li Mu nodded.
The leader deer also ate grass, but he was fine, which meant that the problem was not with the grass here.
"I'll go look elsewhere. You guard the deer here, and they will stand up soon." Li Mu told the deer leader, "Don't eat or drink anything before I come back."
"Yeah." The deer leader nodded repeatedly.
Li Mu looked at the puddle in front of him and decided to take a circuit to see if there were any poisonous herbs growing nearby.
The puddle is neither big nor small. In fact, it can be said to be a pond.
The water source here is not replenished by outside running water. When it rains in the mountains, the rainwater flowing over is stored here, forming such a puddle.
Looking along the way, Li Mu soon reached the opposite side of the grassland where the deer were.
Nothing unusual was found.
The sun shines on the water, reflecting a bright golden color, sparkling, and the blue sky and white clouds are reflected in the water.
There are also several plants with dense yellow flowers growing on the shore.
This is a vine that cannot stand upright and can only grow close to the ground or with the help of other upright plants.
The rhizome is slender and cylindrical, growing from the edge of the puddle and spreading into the water.
The leaves are facing each other, dark green in color, and paired with small yellow flowers, which is really beautiful.
Li Mu glanced twice and continued walking.
After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped again.
wrong!
Li Mu turned around and walked back to several flowering vines, squatting down to identify them carefully.
The leaves are round and burr-free, and the flowers are densely packed and small.
Where are some wild flowers? They are clearly several Gelsemium spp.
Li Mu looked at the vines growing into the water and instantly understood why the deer were poisoned.
It's not a grass problem, it's a water problem.
Gelsemium is an evergreen woody vine belonging to the Gelsemaceae family. This plant contains gelsemen, an alkaloid that is highly toxic.
In the Dragon Kingdom, people usually call this plant Gelsemium gallica, and Gelsemium elegans is the most representative one of the Gelsemium genus.
Li Mu counted them carefully and found that there were five gut-wrenching plants in this area, three of which had grown into the water.
Fortunately, this puddle stores enough water, and the rhizome of the gutgrass growing into the water is not damaged, so there are not many toxins accumulated in the water.
Li Mu carefully scooped up the gallweeds from the water, took out a folding ordnance shovel from his hiking bag, and dug out all five gallweeds. Then he took out a few plastic bags, wrapped the dug gallweeds, and prepared to take them out. Go back to the courtyard and burn it.
After dealing with the heartbroken grass, Li Mu continued walking along the puddle.
I walked back to the area where the deer were and found no other gutgrass or other poisonous plants.
The antidote took effect, and all the fallen sika deer stood up. When they saw Li Mu coming back, they all gathered around him, rubbed their heads against him, and kept making deer calls in their mouths to express their gratitude.
Li Mu smiled and touched them one by one. "Thank you, two-legged beast." The deer leader walked to Li Mu and suddenly knelt down on his front legs.
The other sika deer also imitated the deer leader and knelt down one after another.
"No, get up quickly."
Li Mu quickly bent down and helped the deer leader up, "Everyone, get up. I am the ranger of this forest. It is my responsibility to rescue you. You don't have to be like this."
After the deer leader stood up, he kept nuzzling his hand, very affectionately.
Li Mu touched it and said, "The cause of the poisoning of your deer herd has been found. It's because there's heartbroken grass in the water. Have you not drank the water here yet?"
"Yeah." The deer leader nodded, with a puzzled look on his face, "What is guttuck grass?"
"This is it." Li Mu showed the heartbroken grass in the bag to the deer. "I have dug it up. Remember, this grass is poisonous. Don't eat it if you encounter it."
"I know." The deer tried their best to remember what the grass looked like. This poisoning taught them a lesson.
After chatting with the deer group for a while, Li Mu exchanged some antidote for some antidote again, sprinkled it into the puddles, and tested it. After finding that the water no longer contained the toxins of the Deer Group, he waved goodbye to the deer group.
The deer watched him go away.
"Nimu, you are back."
The cat squatted obediently on the grass, staring at Li Mu. As he approached, the cat's head was raised little by little. Until Li Mu walked in front of her, the cat's head was also raised high. On fire.
Li Mu looked down at the kitten and opened her mouth to say, 'Don't you feel uncomfortable with your head raised so high?' But when she thought about it, if she said that, she would definitely answer, 'Cats are all like this', so the words came to her lips , turned into another sentence: "Has Mr. Yogurt been sitting here waiting for me?"
"That's right! Mr. Yoghurt didn't go anywhere!"
"I just asked Mr. Yogurt to wait here and not follow me. I'm afraid that the deer will get an infectious disease and infect you again. I didn't tell you to sit here and not move."
"But you didn't say Mr. Yoghurt can move around as he pleases!"
"Do you want to say this too?"
"I want it!"
"Well, I was negligent."
"You were negligent~"
"Let's go."
"Can Mr. Yoghurt move, please?"
"You can move now."
"Okay."
The cat then stood up from the ground, bent down, lifted its buttocks, and stretched out so much that its flesh pads blossomed.
Li Mu smiled and shook his head and walked forward. After stretching, the kitten trotted to follow him.
"Ni Mu, has Lu'er's disease been cured?"
"It's cured."
"What is it?"
"It's not an infectious disease, it's something wrong with the water they drink."
"Hmm!"
The cat stared at the plastic bag in his hand again, "Why did you put a bag of grass in it?"
"The grass dug near the water is poisoning the deer."
"Poisonous weed!"
"Yes."
"Throw it away!"
"Don't just throw it away. Burn it when you get back."
"The fire will poison meow?"
"No."
"Hmm"
The cat chirped and kept asking childlike questions, which was very interesting.
