Su Nanxi looked around and saw that there were indeed many more people.

Upon closer inspection, something seemed off; so many people were huddled together in front of them, it looked like something had happened.

Could they have started fighting?

Tsk, that's not impossible!

When you're out and about, you're bound to encounter some oddballs. Especially in situations like this, things can get complicated, and if both sides have bad tempers, a fight might break out.

However, you can enjoy excitement anytime, but you should definitely avoid watching excitement at this time!

It's better to avoid trouble!

Mind your own business, and you'll live a long life!

Let's each go our own way, without looking at each other or getting close!

The village chief thought so too, so he warned the villagers behind him to mind their own business and not to look at or pay attention to anything!

They were hesitating whether to wait and let the people in front finish their commotion before they went over, but for some reason, the people in front suddenly started running, as if something unexpected had happened.

Thankfully, it wasn't running towards them.

The village chief didn't dare to go over rashly, so he told everyone to step aside and rest for a while, and then see what the situation was like.

Some people continued walking forward, but they quickly ran back.

Looking panicked, he wished he had two more legs to run faster!

Su Nanxi sensed something was wrong and finally stopped someone to ask. The person was terrified and could barely speak, "Up ahead, there's a... a huge tiger suddenly... suddenly jumped down the mountain! It's coming! It's killing people! Run!"

After saying that, he bypassed Su Nanxi and ran away, his legs almost flying!

When everyone heard it was a tiger, their faces turned deathly pale!

My God, their lives are so miserable!

I slept in a cave or forest last night and didn't encounter any wild beasts. How come I ran into one on the main road? Could it be that all the big insects have come down from the mountain?

It’s over!

There must be nothing left to eat on the mountain, and seeing so many people down below, they just ran down!

One bite at a time, and it's really filling!

My goodness!

If we don't run now, what are we waiting for!

If you keep dazed, it'll be too late!

Not to mention the villagers, even the village chief panicked. He had never actually seen a giant insect before, let alone had the ability to defeat it!

All sorts of rumors about the giant insect flooded my mind instantly, the most common being that the insect eats people. The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became, and I felt completely lost.

There were quite a few of them, including the elderly and children, and they were carrying so much stuff that they couldn't run very fast. But to save their lives, should they run or not?

Let's run!

The villagers were even more panicked than the village chief, filled with fear. Before anyone could say anything, they ran off with the others!

The village chief spoke in a normal tone, telling them not to panic, but he was actually quite panicked himself. He didn't dare to shout loudly, for fear of attracting the big worm.

But nobody listened to him; everyone was too busy trying to save their own lives!

Su Nanxi didn't panic. What good would panicking do? Panic would only make things worse!

Besides, we don't even know what's going on yet, so how can we panic?

Xiao Han stepped forward, "I'll go take a look! I'm good at fighting!"

Fu Mingchuan stopped him, looking ahead, his tone somewhat heavy, "I'll go. You stay and protect them!"

Xiao Wu stepped forward. "I'll go with you!"

Fu Mingchuan's expression left no room for negotiation: "No need, leave them all here and protect them!"

The "they" he was referring to were the Mo family, the Zhou family, and the three members of the Chen family.

Seeing that Fu Mingchuan was not going to give up, Xiao Wu and Xiao Han both looked at Su Nanxi. Su Nanxi didn't say much, but took something out of the cloth bag and handed it to Fu Mingchuan. "Take this for self-defense. Try not to get too close. If it's a big insect or other wild animal, just do it like this, in different parts of the body. Four needles will definitely knock him down!"

As she spoke, Su Nanxi gave Fu Mingchuan a brief lesson. Fu Mingchuan found the thing quite novel, but since now was not the time to study it, he put aside his curiosity and listened attentively. Fortunately, he understood it as soon as he heard it.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Su Nanxi take out something they had never seen before. Su Su's cloth bag really had all sorts of things!

What is that thing? It looks a bit creepy!

Hearing from Su Su that it seems pretty powerful, I suddenly felt less scared!

At this point, it seemed they had no other choice but to trust Fu Mingchuan and Su Nanxi.

Fu Mingchuan immediately went to check. Su Nanxi thought for a moment, then took one out of the cloth bag and handed it to Mo Qinghe, explaining when it could be used, when it couldn't be used, and what precautions to take.

In short, the key is self-defense, not harming others.

She was worried that Fu Mingchuan wouldn't be able to handle it. She knew that although he was skilled in martial arts, a starving worm was very powerful, otherwise it wouldn't have come to a place where humans lived.

So she decided to go and see. If Fu Mingchuan was too nervous, didn't know how to use it, or used it incorrectly, there might be trouble!

In a life-or-death struggle, every second counts; a single misstep can lead to defeat!

In just a moment of hesitation, the worm might pounce in a fit of rage!

When they saw that Su Nanxi was going, everyone was shocked and reluctant, and extremely worried!

What if something happens to Su Nanxi too? They'll lose their pillar of support!

But the situation was urgent, and there was no time to think or delay. Every second that passed might put Fu Mingchuan in greater danger.

Who knows how many big insects they are!

well!

We've only been traveling for a few days, and we've already encountered such a huge obstacle!

Mo Qinghe wanted to go with them, but Old Madam Mo was unwilling, and tears streamed down her face.

But she also knew that she couldn't stop it, so she didn't say anything to stop it.

Su Nanxi couldn't dissuade Mo Qinghe, so she could only let him go, repeating what she had just said as she ran quickly.

Mo Qinghe listened attentively and responded continuously.

When Fu Mingchuan arrived at the scene, he was shocked to see chaos. Although he was somewhat prepared, he was still taken aback.

Blood was everywhere, its red color glaringly bright in the sunlight, and a large worm was biting a person!

Even though he was used to bloodshed and carnage, he was still shocked by what he saw.

The person inside the worm's mouth didn't seem to be completely dead. He was probably woken up when he was dragged, making a sound and then excitedly calling for help.

How can we let go of meat that's already in our mouths?

The worm bit even harder, still trying to escape the scene as quickly as possible.

But he quickly spotted Fu Mingchuan. He looked up and met Fu Mingchuan's gaze. He wasn't stupid; just one look was enough for him to tell that Fu Mingchuan was not someone to be trifled with. So he kept backing away, looking for the best escape route.

The person inside its mouth screamed in pain. Upon discovering Fu Mingchuan, he desperately cried for help, begging Fu Mingchuan to save him.

Fu Mingchuan dared not make any rash moves, fearing he might hurt the person.

Who knows what might happen when the tiger gets angry?

But the man thought Fu Mingchuan was unwilling to save him, and he looked at him coldly. Gradually, the light in his eyes disappeared, and he probably wanted to give up, so he stopped shouting.

He knew very well that taking meat out of a worm's mouth was like pulling a tooth out of a worm's mouth—an impossible task!

When Su Nanxi arrived, Fu Mingchuan suddenly launched an attack on the tiger.

She couldn't worry about much else; once she understood the situation, she joined in.

"The tiger's fallen! Go up there and finish it off!"
