Chapter 38 The Mysterious Insect



Jiang Yao looked at everyone, thinking, "It seems that if I don't make you all bleed a little today, you won't remember Erpang's knife."

Jiang Yao quickly raised her sword and slashed at Zhang San's wife, who was charging ahead.

ah--

When Zhang San's wife saw that Jiang Yao was really going to attack someone, she didn't have time to dodge, screamed, and fell to the ground.

Blood was gushing out of Zhang San's wife's carotid artery.

Some people backed away in fear. When Zhang San saw his wife being slashed, his eyes turned bloodshot, and his lips trembled as he shouted, "I'm going to kill you!" He raised the kitchen knife in his hand and slashed at Jiang Yao.

Seeing this, Xiao Mu kicked Zhang San to the ground. Before Zhang San could get up, Xiao Mu quickly grabbed the Hou Dao from Jiang Yao's hand and stabbed it into his back.

Xiao Mu looked at everyone with icy eyes. Just as he was about to return Hou Dao to Jiang Yao, Li Haiping seized the opportunity and rushed forward, striking Xiao Mu with his stick.

Seeing this, Shen Zhijie kicked the long stick out of Li Haiping's hand. Xiao Mu heard the noise, turned around, and swung his knife, stabbing Li Haiping repeatedly.

When everyone saw that Xiao Mu, Jiang Yao, and the others had really killed someone, they panicked and started pushing and shoving each other, wanting nothing more than to leave this place as quickly as possible.

Jiang Xue's eyes widened in disbelief that Xiao Mu would actually kill someone for Jiang Yao.

Jiang Sheng looked at Jiang Yao, then at Xiao Mu, and already knew the answer in his heart.

Jiang Xue probably won't have another chance.

A flash of hatred crossed Li Haining's eyes as she saw her brother being killed in the crowd.

They just wanted some food, what's wrong with that? Everyone's just trying to survive.

As night fell, Jiang Yao lay in bed, while the scurrying of insects outside never ceased.

Recalling what happened during the day, Jiang Yao secretly thought that Jiang Xue could no longer stay.

The next day, when Jiang Yao went out, she heard people talking about how, because there was no food, some people had dismembered and eaten Zhang San's corpse.

This made everyone even more frightened, and they kept asking Shen Xi when the military would arrive, fearing that they would become someone else's prey.

Zhu Hezheng, Dang Chengye, He Fenghua and others finally arrived at Shichang Village at noon and used the last of their medicine to clear the area around the shelter.

Someone looked outside and saw people wearing protective suits and masks, using an unknown liquid to kill insects.

It was visibly noticeable that there were fewer insects, and many people came to the shelter's safety exit, wondering if anyone had brought food.

Shen Xi opened the door, and Zhu Hezheng explained his purpose. Everyone quickly organized their supplies, and 10 minutes later, when the transport truck arrived, they began to evacuate the crowd.

Upon hearing the news, Jiang Yao stored the furniture in the room into her spatial storage, taking whatever she could with her. However, Jiang Yao did not intend to go to the base with everyone.

Shen Zhijie and Xiao Mu only packed some changes of clothes and a few simple foods.

As soon as the transport truck arrived, everyone rushed to get on. Jiang Xue didn't care about her image anymore; she just wanted to get away from this place as soon as possible.

Seeing that Jiang Xue had already gotten into the car, Jiang Sheng hurriedly called out, "Jiang Xue, quick, quickly help me out."

Seeing this, Jiang Xue hesitated. What if she pulled her father up and he fell down?

Jiang Sheng saw Jiang Xue's hesitation and felt a chill in his heart. The daughter he had raised was treating him like this.

Because everyone rushed to get on the bus, some people were injured or killed. Shen Xi's shouts were no longer being heard; everyone just wanted to get away from this man-eating place as quickly as possible.

Seeing everyone scrambling to get into the car, Jiang Yao silently turned and walked towards the back mountain.

Xiao Mu couldn't find Jiang Yao in the crowd, so he turned and walked towards the safety exit, watching in the distance as someone walked towards the back mountain.

The figure looked like Jiang Yao, and Xiao Mu followed without hesitation.

Why is Jiang Yao going up the mountain instead of retreating with the troops at this time? What important matter could she have to do?

Xiao Mu followed behind Jiang Yao with a puzzled expression.

Upon discovering that Xiao Mu and Jiang Yao were missing, Shen Zhijie hurriedly began searching for them, knowing that even if he himself were lost, Xiao Mu could not be lost.

Shen Zhijie didn't have time to think about anything else and headed towards the emergency exit. Finding no one there, he resigned himself to his fate and climbed the stairs to search upwards.

When Jiang Yao arrived at the safe house he had helped her build, Xiao Mu was a little suspicious. Was Jiang Yao reluctant to part with the supplies?

Jiang Yao arrived in the basement, waved her hand, and the things that were on the ground disappeared.

This discovery confirmed his suspicions: Jiang Yao truly does possess the legendary spatial dimension, though when she acquired it remains uncertain. Could it be...?

Were you sick last time?

Jiang Yao felt a dark shadow behind her, and cautiously turned around, only to find no one there.

Feeling uneasy, I quietly went to the door and looked outside, only to be stunned.

When did Xiao Mu arrive? Did he see him?

If I can beat him, I can kill him to silence him.

Seeing that Jiang Yao's face had shown several different expressions in a short time, Xiao Mu leaned forward slightly and moved closer to her, closing the distance between them.

A smile played on his lips as he stared intently at Jiang Yao, and slowly asked, "Do you think you can beat me?"

Jiang Yao?

Was my expression that obvious?

Jiang Yao carefully stepped back, widening the distance between them. "Hehe, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

Xiao Mu stepped forward again to close the distance between them, leaned close to Jiang Yao's ear, and slowly said, "You know what I'm talking about."

Jiang Yao felt as if Xiao Mu's lips had lightly brushed past her ear, and a warm breath was blowing into her ear, so much so that she didn't hear what Xiao Mu had just said.

Jiang Yao blushed slightly and looked somewhat confused as she asked, "What did you just say?"

Seeing this, Xiao Mu chuckled softly and said, "It's nothing." He then ruffled her hair.
