Chapter 52: Man-eating Evil Bug
Qin Zhiyu used the Nine-Curve Sword to chop a flying insect in half. There was not much fog here, so he could barely see the insect clearly.
The strange insect has three pairs of wings, a pair of shiny black compound eyes on its head, and a mouthpart covered with densely packed teeth. With a body as long as a thumb, it can make a hole with one bite!
Qin Zhiyu couldn't help but look at Bai Qianyu, who didn't say a word and ran for a long time after being bitten, and sighed in his heart that he had a strong willpower.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
The wings vibrated and the mouthparts kept biting, and a rapid sound was heard. Qin Zhiyu and Bai Qianyu were both startled.
"Oh no, a large group of insects is coming, run!" Bai Qianyu said as he ran forward with big strides.
"Do you have any anthelmintic medicine?" Qin Zhiyu said as he took out the realgar water prepared by 007.
She had no other anthelmintics, so she brought this realgar or 007 with her, considering that there were many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the wild, to help resist some of them when camping.
Although I don’t know whether realgar is effective against this mutant insect, let’s give it a try!
She poked a hole in the medicine bag and let Xiaolan hold the medicine bag and scatter the medicine out while running.
"I have a bottle of floral water, but it may not be useful against such ferocious insects." Bai Qianyu said while spraying the floral water.
After spraying the floral water, Bai Qianyu handed it to Qin Zhiyu who was "running with him" all the way. The two of them were about the same speed.
No matter how fast he ran, Qin Zhiyu could keep up. If he wasn't escaping, he would even have the feeling that Qin Zhiyu was accommodating his speed.
This doesn't seem like the physical speed a girl should have, but it seems extremely reasonable when applied to Qin Zhiyu.
"Thank you, the realgar I spread is useless, the insects are getting closer!" Qin Zhiyu said seriously, it was not a good idea to keep running like this.
"Or light a fire and burn the bugs!" Qin Zhiyu continued with some disgust.
Insects would hit her body from time to time. Although there were no bite wounds, it was still uncomfortable.
She wore gloves and swatted the bugs with her hands. These bugs kept biting her skin, which was not covered by protective clothing.
She was wearing a protective suit with long sleeves and long pants, which covered her ankles. On her feet were accelerated leather boots, which also provided a certain degree of defense. In addition, she was always moving, so it was not easy for insects to bite her.
He was wearing gloves on his hands.
There are not many places on the body that insects can bite. Only the exposed ears, cheeks and neck are relatively dangerous because the skin and flesh are relatively fragile.
But Bai Qianyu felt uncomfortable. He didn't know if the short-sleeved shirt and long pants were protective clothing, as the insects bit his legs.
Although I saw him using the medical kit, the bleeding could not be stopped and the smell of blood was strong.
“Burn it!”
Bai Qianyu was already feeling dizzy from running, and after being bitten a few more times, he knew very well that this was the feeling of excessive blood loss.
After Bai Qianyu spoke, Qin Zhiyu took out a bucket of rapeseed oil to help with combustion and poured it on the ground behind him.
After pouring a liter of rapeseed oil, Qin Zhiyu threw two or three torches and a pile of firewood for cooking on the place where the rapeseed oil was poured.
"Step back." Bai Qianyu said, staring at the torches.
While Qin Zhiyu was making arrangements, Bai Qianyu had already prepared torches while killing the nearby insects.
Seeing Qin Zhiyu running out of the cave, Bai Qianyu prepared to retreat while lighting two torches and throwing them accurately at the pile of firewood.
Qin Zhiyu immediately saw the bright red flames rising up, and in the blink of an eye the flames rushed to the top of the cave, forming a scorching wall of fire.
They were a little delayed in setting the fire, and then a large number of insects rushed over one after another, wanting to eat but actually seeking death, and crashed into the wall of fire.
"Crackling" was the sound of insects falling.
“It works!”
Bai Qianyu killed two or three insects with his hands. They were lucky enough to escape the high temperature by being wrapped among the insects and were able to fly out.
"Let's leave quickly. With such a big fire here, we might suffer from oxygen shortage." Qin Zhiyu also saw this gratifying scene.
"Well, according to the time we ran, this cave is much longer than the one I came in from." Bai Qianyu said after a pause, his handsome cheeks looking particularly beautiful in the firelight.
"The distance is not much different from when I came in. But if I can't get out, I will exceed the distance." Qin Zhiyu also realized this and continued.
"Meow! Meow!" Xiao Lan, who was in his coat pocket, suddenly screamed!
"Oh no! There's movement up ahead!" Qin Zhiyu understood what Xiao Lan meant and raised his voice instantly.
"Your cat is very perceptive!" Bai Qianyu said affirmatively.
He knew that he didn't notice anything, but after hearing the cat's meow, Qin Zhiyu immediately reacted, just like last time.
It seems that this mutant cat is not that simple!
Anyone who can survive a natural disaster must be very capable!
Qin Zhiyu didn't say anything. He held the Nine-Curve Sword in his hand and looked at the front of the cave vigilantly. Behind him were man-eating worms burning in the fire. He was attacked from both sides!
Seeing that she didn't answer, Bai Qianyu stared at the cave intently.
A drop of sweat hung on the beautiful and straight nose, and deep pupils were revealed under the long eyelashes.
He felt that Qin Zhiyu was really different from any woman he had met before.
After the natural disaster, in addition to the two ruins where he encountered Qin Zhiyu, Bai Qianyu also entered two other ruins. Both were team ruins, with half men and half women.
The women in the ruins are either crazy or weak and can be bullied.
Although she is powerful, she is murderous and unable to protect herself, so she depends on other men, including Bai Qianyu who tries to depend on her.
He knew from a young age how much his superior appearance attracted the attention of all kinds of men and women.
But he could find out from these two interactions that Qin Zhiyu never had a different attitude because of his superior appearance, and his willpower was extraordinary.
Seeing that Qin Zhiyu did not answer, Bai Qianyu pulled his thoughts back and did not ask any further questions. He was not slow-witted and at this time he vaguely felt that something was coming.
Instead of taking out a hidden weapon, he took out a dagger.
The dagger and the handle are twenty centimeters long. The blade is transparent and smooth, and the handle is engraved with patterns to increase friction. The overall look is low-key and textured.
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
"Here I come." Qin Zhiyu said.
"Is this a black dragonfly?" Bai Qianyu said with wide eyes.
"Be careful of their mouthparts!" Qin Zhiyu said immediately.
"This is a hybrid of a mosquito and a dragonfly!" Bai Qianyu said with half shock and half disgust.
Swarms of dragonflies gathered together and swooped down on Qin Zhiyu and Bai Qianyu.
The entire dragonfly is about the length of an index finger, and its mouthparts are the same length as its body. The bright red mouthparts reflect a metallic luster under the firelight, and the tip is as sharp as a needle.
"It's another blood-sucking guy, Xiaolan, be careful and hide well!" Qin Zhiyu greeted Xiaolan.
"Zhi Yu really cares about your pet." Seeing this scene, Bai Qianyu, who was on guard, took the time to joke with Qin Zhi Yu.
"Put it on!" Qin Zhiyu ignored Bai Qianyu's words, and hurriedly took out a set of ordinary protective clothing and threw it to Bai Qianyu.
She also had her own considerations. Although Bai Qianyu was wearing clothes and pants, they were obviously made of ordinary fabrics, and it was unknown under what circumstances he had entered the ruins.
Anyway, in her eyes, Bai Qianyu was exposed, and it would be full of holes in a few bites. Then she would be fighting alone. Qin Zhiyu felt tired when thinking of this scene, so he did not hesitate to do this favor.
"Okay, thank you." Bai Qianyu said after being stunned for a moment after receiving the protective suit.
He didn't expect that Qin Zhiyu's storage space was not only filled with wood, rapeseed oil and other things that seemed messy to him, but also contained extra protective clothing.
He instantly understood why Qin Zhiyu was willing to give him a set.
So without hesitation, he took the clothes, quickly changed into protective clothing, and made a note of this in his mind.
"We can't light any more fires. There's not much oxygen left in the cave!" Qin Zhiyu said, looking at the faint flames behind him.
She didn't even need to aim. With one strike of her sword, a large number of black dragonflies broke into two and fell to the ground with a clatter.
Groups of black dragonflies gathered together, and the sound of their wings vibrating made people feel inexplicably irritated. Qin Zhiyu felt the same way even when he was wearing the Tranquility Necklace, let alone Bai Qianyu.
Qin Zhiyu glanced at Bai Qianyu out of the corner of his eye.
Every move he made was ruthless. Wherever he moved, the holes free of black dragonflies could be seen being cleared away in an instant.
"Be careful!" Qin Zhiyu made a quick decision, took a big step and chopped a black dragonfly into two halves.
When Qin Zhiyu saw it, he was already close to the back of Bai Qianyu's neck.
The compound eyes of this black dragonfly are as big as the first joint of the thumb. The dragonfly's body is ten centimeters long, and its mouthparts are twice the length of its body, hanging down below.
"Is this the Black Dragonfly King? This mouthpart can suck out anemia in one bite!" Bai Qianyu turned around and raised his voice, and was shocked to see the conspicuous black dragonfly falling to the ground.
The black dragonflies seemed to see that Bai Qianyu's killing power was great enough, so they simply attacked like a king and took Bai Qianyu's life.
If Qin Zhiyu hadn't been quick enough to see it, this huge mouthpart would have pierced Bai Qianyu's aorta and might have succeeded.
"Hiss!" Qin Zhiyu took a deep breath.
There are too many dragonflies. No matter how much defense we take, even wearing protective clothing, we can't withstand the powerful black dragonflies.
"You are hurt!" Bai Qianyu frowned when he heard Qin Zhiyu's gasp and said with some concern.
"The protective suit has been punctured. Put on another layer of protective suit. You put it on first, and I'll cover you!" Qin Zhiyu threw a set of protective suit in the direction of the voice. The dense black dragonflies made it impossible for her to look back.
Qin Zhiyu felt that her protective suit, which was of good quality, had become a sieve, not to mention Bai Qianyu, who had probably turned into rags long ago. Her protective suit could still hold up, but Bai Qianyu's could not, so she asked him to change first.
Bai Qianyu caught the protective suit thrown by Qin Zhiyu and felt a little dizzy for a moment. He only woke up after being pricked by the black dragonfly.
He put on the protective suit in a daze, holding a knife in one hand and using two medical kits with the other hand. His mind was not clear. The medical kits could not replenish blood quickly, but they could stop the bleeding!
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
"Oh no, the flames behind us are burning fiercely. We must rush out of the insect nest. If we stay here, we will be sucked dry!" Qin Zhiyu said a little dizzy.
"Charge towards the dragonfly pile!" Bai Qianyu said after making a quick decision. He had lost much more blood than Qin Zhiyu.
"Another big black dragonfly!" Qin Zhiyu said as he rushed into the pile of dragonflies.
Perhaps because of excessive blood loss, her reaction became slow, and then she realized that black dragonflies were not like insects, they had a king.
"it works!"
Bai Qianyu saw Qin Zhiyu kill the Black Dragonfly King, and the black dragonflies were leaderless and did not gather together to attack them.
Needless to say, Qin Zhiyu and Bai Qianyu went together to find the king of black dragonflies and kill him!
Just when they had a chance to catch their breath, the sound of flapping wings exploded in their ears.
"The blood-sucking worms are coming!" After killing several worms in a row, Bai Qianyu immediately reacted and said with a tingling scalp.
Qin Zhiyu waved his weapon mechanically, and they moved extremely slowly towards the cave entrance. Killing the black dragonflies alone had already slowed down their progress, and the large number of insects flying from behind further blocked their progress.
"Master, Xiaolan's stomach hurts!" Xiaolan said in a weak and hoarse voice.
Xiao Lan helped Qin Zhiyu and the others kill the bugs from the beginning, but Qin Zhiyu did not let Xiao Lan out. On the one hand, the bugs' mouthparts were very powerful and there were too many of them. On the other hand, Xiao Lan was not protected by protective clothing and it was difficult for her to avoid being injured.
So Xiao Lan stayed in Qin Zhiyu's pocket all the time, killing any fish that escaped the net with his claws, and helped Qin Zhiyu a lot.
"Damn it! Xiaolan, can you use the medical kit?" Qin Zhiyu widened his eyes in horror, and his brain, which was about to go into shock, immediately woke up and said.
"Xiao Lan, hold on, I will definitely take you out!" Qin Zhiyu killed the insects with even greater force. She wanted to stay alive.
Bai Qianyu, who was in a daze nearby, vaguely sensed this scene. He was surprised and touched, and at the same time, he tried to walk out.
The frequency of swinging the dagger became lower and lower, his arms had no strength left, and he seemed to have lost the ability to feel pain when the insects pierced his flesh.
Bai Qianyu could no longer feel the movements of Qin Zhiyu and Xiaolan.
"I can't get out." Bai Qianyu's pupils collapsed and he said in a weak voice.
"Hold on!" Qin Zhiyu said with difficulty.
"Snap!" Bai Qianyu's dagger slipped from his hand, making a crisp sound.
He knew that he could not hold on any longer and it was a luxury to want to stay alive, but he still felt regretful that he had not been able to thank Qin Zhiyu properly.
Bai Qianyu glanced at Qin Zhiyu with the last of his eyes. She was still killing those damn bugs and talking to Xiao Lan from time to time, but he couldn't hear what they were saying clearly.
Before he could even take a closer look or hear the contents clearly, Bai Qianyu completely lost consciousness. His body rolled to the ground under the pull of gravity, like a falling dagger...
Qin Zhiyu heard the noise coming from Bai Qianyu's side, but she was no longer able to pay attention to the situation over there. Her own fatigue and blood loss made her weak and powerless.
She had to hold on, she was not alone now.
There is also 007 waiting for her to come back, and there is a little blue baby in her arms who is suffering. She can't lose consciousness!
It's out now! It's also 007's birthday, so I'm excited and nervous. Thank you, Dielianhua Yaling, for your monthly vote! I'll update more depending on the situation!
