"Do you still remember what you were bitten by? This kind of wound doesn't look like a normal insect or snake can bite you." I asked worriedly. Although the injury was not serious, what I was most afraid of was that it was poisonous.
Spread into the body.
"I... just... felt... my arm... was... stung... very... stinging..." The fat man continued intermittently, seemingly struggling to describe the situation to me, but judging from his expression, he was not weak, and his energy and blood were not low.
, it didn’t look like he was seriously injured.
But he spoke very slowly and stubbornly, several times slower than usual. He even sounded a little funny, as if he was deliberately being funny.
I can confirm that he was poisoned. It should be the toxin planted by the animal that just bit him. Judging from its reaction and symptoms, it should be a neurotoxin that can gradually paralyze the electrical signal transmission process.
It would take him several times longer to finish what he originally meant to say.
I quickly took out the Luofu Jishi Talisman from my arms and stuck it on the wound on his arm. Fortunately, Fatty and I have developed good habits. No matter where we go, we don’t need to carry money or wear pants, but
Be sure to carry a few charms in your pocket to prepare for various emergencies.
I pointed my finger on the talisman and hurriedly recited the incantation in my mouth: "Build the mysterious qi, prevent all diseases from invading, purify the heart and moisturize the organs, cleanse the marrow with the bright spirit, hold the child in the river, and be as urgent as the law!"
A stream of Xuanqing Qi surged out from my sea of Qi, instantly flowing along the fat man's wounds and into his spiritual platform. Then, following the flow of blood, it gradually poured into the major meridians of the body, sweeping away the toxins all over the neurons.
clear.
I saw his blurred eyes gradually disappear, and then I felt relieved. It seemed that although the poison was effective, it was not very toxic and could be easily removed.
After the fat man regained consciousness, he said: "I just felt that everything in front of me had become very slow, including my own actions. I couldn't keep up with the rhythm of my thinking. It wasn't until you put the talisman on that it slowly returned to normal. I was...
Are the Gu insects attacking?"
I nodded and said calmly: "It's very possible that ordinary insects can't have such strange toxins. This is very much like a species deliberately cultivated by humans. Now I probably know why there are no mosquitoes by the river. It's very interesting."
Maybe they were all preyed upon by the Gu."
The fat man's poison was very shallow, and he was cleared by the Luofu Jishi Curse. Naturally, he quickly returned to normal. He stood up as if facing a powerful enemy, took out a True Fire Talisman, and was ready to fight the enemy at any time.
Now that we have arrived in southern Xinjiang, we are naturally within the control of the Evil Witch Cult. If the people who captured Wan Lin had paid attention to us, they might have discovered our whereabouts. It is normal to send Gu creatures to attack.
.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of tinkering with the windows coming from the corner, and then the sound of running water that had faded away suddenly became clear and loud. If it was just a rapid river just now, it was now close to a violent waterfall.
I immediately understood that this was the chirping or flapping sound of a bug. No wonder we couldn’t hear the sound of any other bugs just now. We mistakenly thought that the sound of gurgling water around us came from the river at our feet. In fact, the sound of the bug came from the beginning.
Just stay near the window edge.
"Be careful! The Gu insect is coming! Use real fire!" I turned around and said to the fat man. I also took out a real fire talisman from my arms and muttered:
"Bingding of the Southern Ming Dynasty, there are fifteen lights, hiding the flames in vain, borrowing the remaining samadhi, Lord of Fire and Virtue, is as urgent as the law and order!"
Two bright tongues of fire shot out from between us, immediately illuminating the dark night. We saw a dozen beetles that looked like beetles, but their mouthparts looked extremely strange, and they were like densely packed syringes of worms running straight towards us.
However, what Gu creatures are most afraid of is open fire. When they see the bright yellow flames burning and moving in front of them, they are obviously very frightened and do not dare to approach easily.
Naturally, the fat man and I would not let go of such a good opportunity. We activated the Tao method repeatedly and sprayed flames on it. Suddenly, the beetle-like Gu creatures were on fire all over their bodies. They were in great pain and moved toward the water stream next to them.
Drill in.
"It works! The real fire talisman is very effective!" Fatty said excitedly, with a bit of disdain in his tone, "I thought the evil witch cult's poison was just that powerful."
Before I finished speaking, there were a few sudden surges on the river, and many beetles flew out, even more than those that had entered the river before. Only then did I realize that they, like mosquitoes, lay their eggs on the river bed.
inside.
Probably because we encountered two powerful enemies, Fatty and I, and the original number was not enough, we mobilized other Gu insects lying in wait under the river bed to rush towards us.
Seeing three times more Gu creatures than before, I didn't dare to neglect, so I took another Gangfeng Talisman in my left hand, chanted a spell, and released a fierce hurricane.
The wind assisted the fire, and the two forces blended together, like a storm of flames, sweeping the Gu insects in, burning and stirring them, and immediately turned them into ashes.
Fatty saw this and did the same thing. The large number of Gu insects disappeared in a short time, and no new beetles flew out of the river bed. It was obvious that the prepared quantity had been used up.
Just when the two of us were about to take advantage of the victory and go in through the window to see who the other party was, we suddenly heard another pleasant sound, and then the voice of the ghost mother-in-law came from behind our ears:
"You two, don't act rashly, and don't continue to fight. Come to my room upstairs. I have something to say."
Fatty and I immediately realized that it was the Lingxi Sound Transmission Gu! Only my mother-in-law's Gu could transmit human voices over long distances.
Although I don’t know why she asked us to leave at this great opportunity, since it was her order, we naturally didn’t dare to disobey. We quickly left here and returned to the hotel. We ran up to the third floor and found that my mother-in-law had already opened the door.
Waiting for us to arrive.
When she saw the two of us appearing, she stopped talking nonsense and said straight to the point: "The man who lived in the room just now is the one who I found with a strange tattoo behind his ear."
Tattoo? Yes, I did see Taozi mention it in her text message before, but at that time I had just recovered from the incident where the three zombies descended, and I was anxious to find a way out with Fatty first, so I didn't
Ask more carefully.
"Mother-in-law, is it true that the tattoo has something to do with the evil witch cult?" I thought of the beetle-like poison flying out of the room just now. It was obviously under the command of a plan and organization, although its toxicity was not very high.
It is strong, but if it is eaten by a sneak attack when you are not prepared, you may become extremely slow to react and be at the mercy of others.
