Chapter 469: Chapter 469: The Balance Must Not Be Broken
As she talked, Ling’er skillfully bandaged the wound, and at this mont, Hei Lang started feeling pain in his wound.
“I, I now, I seem to be feeling sothing, could it be because of the dicine?”
“That’s right, if you hadn’t been treated with dicine, you probably wouldn’t feel anything, but this sensation appearing now is a normal reaction; it proves that the toxins in your body haven’t reached their peak concentration. Don’t worry, there shouldn’t be a problem.”
With Ling’ers assurance, he naturally stopped worrying and felt that this matter should be coming to an end.
After a few minutes, Ling’er had expertly wrapped his entire hand in bandages.
Now, with layer upon layer of gauze bandaged around, it indeed gave him a great sense of security.
“Is it done now?”
“Yes, it’s fine now, and once the dicine slowly enters your bloodstream, it will combine with the toxins. I believe it won’t take too long for you to fully recover.”
“Then, when can I take off this gauze?”
Hei Lang just felt that this thing wrapped around his hand was quite botherso and useless.
“Probably after an hour. You can remove it then. It’s wrapped up now to prevent the dication from leaking out, ensuring it can fully treat the wound.”
“Ok, I got it.”
After finishing the conversation, Hei Lang nodded with relief, and Linyi, standing beside him, let out a long breath of relief. After all, Ling’er had once again saved them all.
“Ling’er, is the poison really that strong?”
“Yes, it’s exactly like that, and you wouldn’t have guessed, right?”
“Right, I didn’t expect it, not only does this fellow have an interesting appearance, but he also possesses so many treasures. If that’s the case, why does he also have such potent poison? It seems all the preparations we made earlier were necessary, weren’t they?”
“This represents the most extre form of human desire, and I tell you, this is also a physiological state ford over many years. With so many treasures upon him, he naturally wouldn’t let others easily take them away. Hence, this kind of subconscious self-protection chanism.”
“I see, that’s what it ans.”
“Exactly, so for us, this creature is of utmost importance.”
“So, you an to say, you’re thinking of taking him back for research?”
“This…”
Ling’er hesitated at this point.
She was unsure whether she could really take these items away.
Honestly, if it were purely up to her, she would want to keep it because he was filled with treasures from head to toe.
“What’s the matter? Having second thoughts? Or are you worried… Oh, brother, do you think it would be very dangerous to do so?”
“Yes, because we used to revere him as a deity, and if we had just inquired properly, we wouldn’t have been attacked by him.”
“No, you’re wrong. It wasn’t that he wouldn’t have attacked you, but rather, he simply wouldn’t. The only reason he would have attacked is if you were destroying his territory or upsetting the ecological balance. Only then would he take an offensive stance.”
“I understand now. For all these years we’ve been misled by superstitions, none of us realizing the true reason behind it. If only you could’ve co here a day earlier, maybe all these mysteries could have been unravelled.”
“I had always heard legends and had a rough idea about this creature. When I first saw it, I imdiately felt there was sothing profound about it, so I watched carefully from the ground. Indeed, after checking several characteristics, I understood that it was the special creature ntioned in ancient texts.”
“So that’s how it is.”
“Yes, do you rember when he made a strange call earlier, which could lure away most prey?”
“Oh, I know about that. So we call him the Hunter God, and it seems in his world, there’s no concept of danger as everything appears harmless in his eyes.”
“Right, that’s because he is a guardian spirit of such kind.”
“Then, if you were to take him, wouldn’t this place lose its equilibrium?”
“That’s what I’ve been grappling with. If he’s truly a rarity here, then the impact of breaking this balance could be substantial.”
“If this balance were disrupted, what would be the outco for all of us?”
“For many years, you’ve lived in harmony with all that exists within Xi Lian Mountain, with no creature ever troubling you, did they?”
“I’ve ntioned this before. As long as we don’t attack them, they will never invade us.”
“It’s only because of his presence that this peace hasn’t been broken. If it were to be shattered, then could the safety of the common folk indeed be guaranteed? I myself can’t assure that.”
In fact, at this mont, his heart was in turmoil.
If he were to ignore all caution and forcibly take this creature away, he might harvest a multitude of valuable dicinal resources from it.
But with the gain would co the violation of nature’s peace.
Nature is sacred and equitable; to violate it is to risk the security of human lives. That was his primary concern.
