Chapter 92: Weakness and blood

I was so excited that I almost shed tears when I took the bamboo tube Ling Ruxue handed me. It wasn’t for anything else, just because she said the word “powder.” If it was a cream or a liquid, I would have been killed by the flying ants before I could apply it.

I quickly poured some of the powder on Huigen’er, and then Gao Ning and I each poured the rest of the powder in the bamboo tube on our bodies. Ling Ruxue also did the same.

Facing what we had done, the bandit smiled smugly, “What’s so special about this insect repellent powder? It can only keep the flying ants away for two minutes at most.”

At this point, the flying ants had already swarmed forward in dense numbers. It was probably the powder that made them hover around us, restless and not getting close, but not leaving either.

It was clear that what the man in the turban had said was true. I began to miss my special insect repellent powder. After returning from the deserted village, there wasn’t much left, so I stayed in Beijing as a souvenir.

I don’t know what happened to the snake repellent master and his apprentice.

If the one that Ru Xue took out was just ordinary, then mine should be considered a special effect product. It should be able to block for at least five minutes, right?

Facing the smugness of the bandit, Ru Xue, who had not spoken much, spoke for the first time: “Two minutes is enough. I’m just waiting for you to release your life-giving parasites.”

As she spoke, Ru Xue raised her hand, and this time I clearly saw three small green snakes shoot out from her wide cuffs. The snakes were so fast that they were even faster than the flying bugs that appeared at the beginning. They swam quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they were almost in front of the five people.

At this time, Ru Xue also quickly climbed on top of him, and a braid danced, quickly wrapping around the headband brother’s neck.

While Ru Xue was doing all this, the five men’s faces changed drastically. I saw that a large number of flying ants flew back, presumably to fight the snakes. However, the snakes had already climbed onto the calves of the three men, wrapped around their calves, and were ready to bite anyone at any time.

And the headband brother’s neck was wrapped in Ru Xue’s braid, and his face also became difficult to look at.

At this moment, I saw Ru Xue gently pat the only person who was not entangled by anything, and then a large colorful spider climbed onto his shoulder.

“Don’t try to resist. Even if your flying ants are powerful, they can’t beat my snake poison. They will definitely bite you before they die.” Ru Xue said coldly.

Gao Ning sighed and said, “This woman is not simple. She has a lot of experience fighting against goblins. Her goblins may not be as powerful as these five idiots, but she makes full use of everything.”

“What do you mean by that?” Seeing that Ru Xue had already subdued the five guys, I let out a long sigh. I just thought that the bugs coming and going were very exciting, but I didn’t understand the mystery behind it.

“It’s very simple. If she had released the snake-type gong from the start, these people would have had many ways to restrain it, because there are so many medicines that can drive away snakes. At first, she released the more powerful flying gong, knowing that the toad gong could restrain the flying gong. But the flying gong is not simple, and it can only be dealt with by a powerful toad gong. When the more advanced toad was killed by Ru Xue with the hair toad, it undoubtedly put a lot of psychological pressure on these people. After all, a high-level toad was killed easily. Coupled with the power of the hair toad, they couldn’t wait to make a contribution, so they could only release their own toads. You have to know that in general, in a fight between toads, people don’t easily release their own toads, because the toad is nurtured from their own blood and essence, and there are other special ways. Once the life-gou is released, other gus cannot be used because part of the mind and spirit is immersed in the life-gou, making it impossible to command other gus. Moreover, once the life-gou is injured, the mind and spirit of the person will also be greatly injured… In short, you can understand that these people were restricted by their own life-gus, and then had a free space, which was seized by Ru Xue. Their gus were very powerful, but unfortunately they had too little experience.” Gao Ning said a long paragraph, and I also roughly understood it.

The gist is that Ru Xue has a lot of experience fighting gus, and in the end, she released a very fast snake gus, and then used its speed to subdue the five men.

During the time we were talking, Ru Xue had already forced several people to withdraw their own life-giving gus, and then used some unknown gus to knock the five people out. To be honest, I admire her. If these five men had used violence directly, we would have been in trouble.

However, it is impossible to think about it, because with these powerful gus, how can you use violence? I’m afraid I would have been under a spell without knowing it.

Gao Ning’s words were partially heard by Ru Xue, who didn’t seem to care much. She rearranged her hair and said softly, “It was just luck. Their life-gods are flying ants, and there are more restraining medicines like snake ants. If it were other kinds of life-gods, I would have had to release my own life-gods, and I would have had to use secret techniques, which would have exhausted my mind and made me have to command several more to fight them.

“But it’s the flying ants that are the problem, because this kind of insect is suitable for real warfare, you know? The man also said that the powder can only block for a few minutes, and compared to the number of flying ants, the powder is probably even more difficult to obtain, right?” My face was a bit ugly, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that the Black Rock Miao Village was not small.

Ru Xue also frowned slightly, but Gao Ning said, “Let’s go into the insect room quickly. Otherwise, the pursuers will keep coming. This time there are only five of them, but who knows how many there will be next time?”

I looked at Gao Ning and asked seriously, “Are you sure these people won’t follow us into the insect room?”

Gao Ning smiled mysteriously and said, “I’m sure!”

I didn’t say much. At this time, the pursuers in the tunnel had already caught up. The dog spirits that were imprisoned by Huigen also played a role, and they actually entangled those people. I glanced back at the pursuers. Unlike those who were affected by the cat spirits, those who were affected by the dog spirits had a symptom similar to rabies. They began to lose consciousness, their mouths were drooling, and they actually bit their companions.

This scene is similar to hell on earth, like some of the so-called zombie movies filmed in the modern era. Everything in the Black Rock Miao Village is extremely vicious, but it is also extremely difficult to defend against. No wonder the country is so afraid of them.

They are tolerated to live in a corner and do some evil deeds that cannot be seen by others, because compared to the general trend, these small evils can always be suppressed within a certain scope, just like some countries that exceptionally allow some cities to use drugs and some cities to gamble. It is better to concentrate than to spread.

At a certain point, they will always be uprooted.

I thought to myself, and then I stopped looking at the scene. I didn’t feel guilty either. As the saying goes, you reap what you sow.

Then, carrying Hui Gen, I set off with Ru Yue and Gao Ning to the insect room. Walking up the stairs, Gao Ning was obviously much more relaxed, and even felt a kind of suppressed excitement. He said to me, “You are also lucky, but this luck is also inevitable. Otherwise, when those old monsters come out, which one of them can’t wipe us out with just one finger? Hahaha…”

I looked at Gao Ning and asked, “What do you mean?”

“It’s simple. The worms are weak, and the old guys are weak. Not to mention moving their magic, even if they use their power to catch us, they are afraid that their lives will be lost if they take a few steps, so they can only endure it. To survive this weakness, it has to rely on your blood, haha… So you are also lucky, but this luck is also inevitable.” Having come this far, Gao Ning finally agreed to reveal some useful information.

But I was horrified to hear it. No wonder the old man Boqie was so interested in me. It turned out to be related to the weakness of the worms. I came to a conclusion from Gao Ning’s words. If that was the case, would they let me go so easily?

At least from the quality of the pursuers, it was definitely not the full strength of this village. I almost blurted out without thinking: “If that’s the case, why would they let me go? Let me easily enter the insect room?”

Gao Ning’s face once again revealed that mysterious smile, saying, “What if you ran to the front gate of the village? The village’s shamans and the insect seedling would definitely come out in full force. You ran to the insect room. Haha, maybe they were hoping for it in their hearts. Isn’t that right?”

My face turned cold, and I looked at Gao Ning and asked, “What do you mean by that?”
