Chapter 998 Are they really blood brothers?
Xiao Jihui's expression changed as he spoke. He knew that even if the dog was not mutated, killing and eating a dog with rabies that had not been quarantined could still lead to infection with the rabies virus.
If a person is infected with rabies, they are not far from death. It is no exaggeration to say that they are killing for money.
The owner of this shop did such a heinous thing to make money, and now this is his just desserts.
However, the people living nearby were innocent. After the dog bit the shop owner and the staff, it ran out and indiscriminately attacked pedestrians and nearby residents, which was an extremely serious and heinous incident.
As Xiang Yueqi listened to Xiao Jihui's indignant description, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "How is this dog different from an ordinary dog after its mutation?"
"Different?" Xiao Jihui quickly took out his phone and showed the pictures sent from the other end to the others.
The dog in the picture has brown fur and is three or four times larger than an ordinary mongrel. However, perhaps because it is a stray dog and no one feeds it, this dog looks big but is thin and bony, and its fur is matted and tangled, making it look very dirty and disheveled.
The dog's slightly open mouth revealed its teeth, which were sharper and more pointed than those of an ordinary dog, and drool was constantly dripping from it. Most frighteningly, the dog's eyes were red, covered with blood vessels, and as bright as blood, making one feel a chill down their spine with just one glance.
"Its desperate last stand unexpectedly gave it a chance to survive."
Jun Wuduan could roughly understand what was going on as soon as he saw the picture. The dog had a strong will to survive, and being trapped in the bag and unable to move, it was filled with hatred, which unintentionally caused the mutation.
Unfortunately, its physical condition was too poor, and even with mutation, it couldn't last long.
It probably understood this, which is why it harbored hatred for humanity and wanted to drag as many people as possible down with it.
After listening to their explanations, Xiao Jihui's expression grew increasingly grim. Those in charge of their area knew better than anyone else that in such heinous incidents, it wasn't the ruthless ones they feared, but the reckless ones.
They've risked their lives; unless they completely disable it, there's no way to stop it from hurting people.
Not to mention it carries the rabies virus. If you were bitten by a normal dog, you might have a chance to get vaccinated. But this dog is mutated. Who knows if it will develop rabies on the spot if you are bitten, without even giving you a buffer time.
Has anyone already gone to help?
"Yes, but..."
"only?"
"But after this dog mutated, its fur also became unusually stiff."
Upon hearing Xiao Jihui's words, everyone present understood that after the dog mutated, it would probably be like that pitcher plant, not very easy to defeat.
“S City is over a thousand kilometers away. Time is of the essence. Let Lao Wu come over.”
Xiao Jihui was slightly taken aback: "Fifth brother?"
"Fifth Junior Brother."
Xiao Jihui was taken aback. There was another one. Why didn't they bring it with them in the first place?
Seemingly sensing Xiao Jihui's thoughts, Jun Wuduan smiled helplessly: "I didn't expect to go to such a far place at first."
I thought it was just a local commotion, but it turns out it's happening in other places too.
Xiang Yueqi chuckled and explained, "Fifth Junior Brother is rather loud and impulsive when he does things."
Given Qi Yingxuan's personality, if you really called him over, he would definitely be the first to rush to the front.
While resolving these issues is not a problem, there's no guarantee that after the matter is resolved, he might have to pay compensation for the public property he damaged.
Compared to their explanations, Jiang Lin was much more straightforward, simply replying with two words: "It's in the way."
Xiao Jihui: "..." The way he said it was practically calling the other person a noob and a drag on. Are they really brothers?
Qi Yingxuan was eventually called in to help, and as soon as they met, he couldn't help but complain to the others.
"You guys are really too much! You didn't even call me for something so important! Are you trying to steal all the credit and wait for your junior sister to come back so you can claim credit for her? I knew it, I knew it! You guys are all so scheming and treacherous."
Xiao Jihui, who was listening from the side, twitched at the corner of his mouth and suddenly understood why these big shots had excluded this junior brother.
Jun Wuduan watched him jump up and down with a cold eye, and after a while, he delivered a blow to his ego: "People who can't even sense the revival of spiritual energy have no right to criticize us."
"Who can't sense it? Who? It's obvious that none of you are paying attention to me. Look, look, how many messages have I sent in the group? Who has responded to me? I was so naive to think that you were all asleep or busy with something. Who would have thought that you would sneak out behind my back? I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"
Xiao Jihui, who was silently watching the drama unfold, was speechless. Anyone who didn't know better would think that the wife was complaining about her husband sneaking out to have an affair while he was sleeping at night. It was full of the air of a resentful wife.
Qi Yingxuan was still not satisfied after he finished speaking: "You did this on purpose. Don't think I don't know. You went to someone's house with your junior sister to resolve a problem not long ago."
After criticizing Jun Wuduan, Qi Yingxuan turned his attention to Jiang Lin: "You too, haven't you been asking your senior brother for help a lot lately? I'm the only one who's been kept in the dark and doesn't know anything. Do you guys even consider me your junior brother?"
The only one who wasn't criticized muttered to himself, "I wasn't contacted either, and I didn't know anything about these things."
"Non-single people are not allowed to participate in this topic."
Xiang Yueqi: "???" So what if you're not single? Why are you discriminating against non-single people? You're just jealous!
"Ahem..." Xiao Jihui couldn't help but interject, "Well, could we discuss these things later? Business is more important."
“That’s right, that’s right, business is more important.” Xiang Yueqi hurriedly chimed in, “Fifth brother, with the resurgence of spiritual energy, many places are experiencing biological mutations. There’s a mutated dog in S City that’s running around everywhere, hurting people. It’s too far away, so you need to quickly set up a magic array to send us there.”
"It's only at times like this that you remember me," Qi Yingxuan muttered under his breath, but he also knew that he should consider the bigger picture at times like this. "Tell me the exact location."
Xiao Jihui quickly handed over the location of the mutated dog to Qi Yingxuan, who then drew a magic circle on the spot. As soon as the magic circle was completed, a small circle lit up under the feet of the group, with various runes and the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams patterns drawn inside.
Qi Yingxuan's men continued working, only offering a reminder: "Time is tight, we can only draw a small formation first, and can only take six people at a time. Who's going?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Xiao Jihui quickly declared, "I'll go with you."
The four fellow disciples definitely have to go too, so there's one left...
“Me too, me too.” He Ziyuan, who had been following Xiao Jihui, quickly raised his hand to show his support. Worried about being rejected, he added, “I have a good luck charm drawn by Miss Ye.”
