Chapter 49 Something is wrong
Afterwards, Jiang Rong, Xin Jue and the others were not idle either. They had a total of sixteen large water buckets, each of which was filled to the brim, plus a 50ml glass bottle of snow locust liquid.
Assuming each bucket weighs 38 kilograms, they collected a total of 609 kilograms of snow locust liquid. After deducting the 30% that needs to be handed in, there is still 426 kilograms left.
Based on the results of Chen Huangzong’s previous attempts, what they collected should be able to be used for a long time.
Jiang Rong was not greedy at this time. He knew when to stop, collected all the things he brought out, and divided out the parts to be handed in. Then he took the things back home.
At this time, more and more people were coming out of the village, holding all kinds of containers in their hands. If there were no buckets, they would use oil drums. If there were no oil drums, they would bring small mineral water bottles out in sacks.
Jiang Rong stared at the sack of 500ml plastic bottles with his eyes wide open.
How much blood will this cost?
Many people don’t have fresh blood at home, so they all follow Jiang Rong’s original method, biting their fingertips and dripping their own blood…
If one drop is added to each bottle, the person will probably have to stay in bed for the next few days. If the Qi and blood are really insufficient, the person may die in the middle of the night.
But at this time, it seems that there is no other way.
If you don't take risks now, when others have something to treat the corrosion on their bodies in the future, those who are afraid to risk their lives now will have to stare blankly and watch their bodies slowly corroded from the outside to the inside.
The stronger the contrast, the more desperate I will feel.
When Jiang Rong thought of this, he felt relieved.
Then he rode his tricycle back home. He made three trips in total, delivering about eleven and a half buckets.
When making the third trip, the entrance to the village, which was not very big to begin with, was completely blocked and the tricycle could not get in at all.
It can only be delivered by Cai'er, Xin Jue and others.
Jiang Rong looked at the black masses of heads around him and felt fortunate that the mutant beasts near the village had been almost completely dealt with by the psychics in the past few days. Otherwise, in the eyes of the other mutant beasts, these people would be more dazzling than 500-watt light bulbs.
After waiting for a long time, the remaining two and a half buckets were finally safely delivered to Jiang Rong's tricycle.
At this time, several people were preparing to go home.
"Have you finished loading the buckets in front? You've already loaded more than ten buckets. Don't be so selfish. Leave some for the ones behind us! If not, just move your buckets around. They're all blocked here, and they're blocking other people's way."
"Brother, I want to ask you, we are from the same village after all, don't be so ruthless."
"Brother, I'm talking to you."
"Just tell me if you can move these barrels. These barrels alone take up two spaces! The road is not very big to begin with, but you alone have taken up half of it!"
"Damn it, I asked you if you're okay! Are you mute?!"
"Fuck you, you're ignoring me, right? I'll let you act as you please!"
"Bang!"
"ah!"
"Help... woo..."
“Hehe…”
"Fuck!"
"Fuck!"
"Which idiot did this!"
“Hehe…”
"Zhang Jiazhuang, are you fucking crazy?!"
"ah!!!"
"What are you crazy about? Run! You are just standing there waiting to die!"
"I'm so unlucky today! I met these two idiots!!!"
Jiang Rong and his companions were now quite far away from the crowd, walking at a moderate pace, only one uphill climb away from the Jiang family's home.
Then, just as we were about to go up the hill, we heard screams coming one after another from a distance, from both men and women.
"What's going on?" Zhao Caier looked back in the direction where the scream came from, with a confused look on her face.
Then he subconsciously released the pair of wings behind him and flew into the sky to look into the distance.
Based on his own experience, Jiang Rong knew without a second thought that something must have happened ahead.
Without saying a word, she pushed the cart even harder.
"Xin Jue, don't just stand there, send these home first."
"Oh my god, run, run, are they crazy?" As soon as Zhao Caier saw the situation in the distance clearly, she immediately retracted her wings and then helped push the tricycle with great effort.
Fortunately, there were only a hundred pounds of stuff in the car.
Uncle Zhao drove in front, and Jiang Rong and the other two pushed from behind. After a while, the tricycle successfully went up the hill.
It only took the few people two or three minutes to walk the next few dozen meters. They got home quickly, got out of the car, unloaded the goods, and went into the house.
After a while, everyone in the room could hear a clucking sound, coming from far away and getting closer.
On the village path, some human figures appeared one after another, fleeing in a panic, covered in blood.
The crystal white locusts covered the sky and darkened it.
Those who did not have time to run back into the house were covered all over by dense swarms of snow locusts. The insects drilled into their bodies through their noses, eyes, ears, and mouths, roamed across their skin, and ate their flesh.
Zhao Caier couldn't help swallowing as she watched the scene from afar, imagining the feeling of those insects drilling into her body and gnawing at her flesh and blood.
I suddenly felt a chill.
I don’t know how many people will die this time.
Jiang Rong looked at the path outside the window and saw quite a few people entangled by insects, and a large number of them were ordinary people.
She reached out and squeezed the little snake in her pocket, wanting to see if it could help.
However, the little snake that was originally limp and sleepy in the pocket suddenly straightened up.
Then with a whoosh, it flew out of the pocket.
Its two small eyes stared at Jiang Rong.
"Qin Sang?" Jiang Rong asked uncertainly.
The little snake didn't respond.
"Guardian spirit?"
The little snake remained in a daze and did not react.
Jiang Rong frowned slightly. How come he slept in his pocket and became stupid?
Jiang Rong looked at the stupid little snake flying in the air and reached out to pull it down to take a closer look to see if there was anything wrong.
As a result, the little snake slipped away from her fingertips very nimbly. Then it flew to a place a few meters away from Jiang Rong.
The two small eyes stared at Jiang Rong's cold and beautiful right hand without blinking.
Jiang Rong could even see some vigilance in it.
???
"Come here." Jiang Rong said, his voice a little urgent.
After hearing the sound, the little snake raised its head after a long time and looked at Jiang Rong blankly.
Finally, his eyes looked horrified and his body flew towards Jiang Rong involuntarily.
Jiang Rong looked at the little snake's two dark but emotional eyes, and his heart was full of doubts.
This guy just slept in his pocket for, like, an hour?
What is happening now?!
But now is not the time for her to worry about this.
“Can you eat those guys outside?”
She reached out and grabbed the little snake's body, and straightened its head so that it faced the window.
After several seconds, the little snake nodded and then shook its head.
Jiang Rong...
So can we eat it?
"You can eat it but don't want to eat it?" Jiang Rong asked tentatively.
The little snake nodded quickly this time.
"That's easy. Just put them all in your space and you don't have to eat them." Jiang Rong smiled, saying that this way he could kill two birds with one stone.
The short snake nodded quickly, then flew away from Jiang Rong and headed towards the hole that Uncle Zhao had temporarily opened in the wall.
"Wait, guardian spirit, come back for a moment." Jiang Rong looked at the little snake's body flying away quickly and suddenly shouted again.
Afterwards, everyone saw the little snake's body pause in mid-air for a moment, and then it quickly rushed out of the house.
It's like... there's a ghost behind it trying to catch it.
Extremely scared.
Jiang Rong curled the corners of her mouth at this. Although she didn't know what was going on with the little snake's reaction at this moment, she was sure that the shell now did not contain a guardian spirit.
She would ask him carefully when he changed back into human form.
After the little snake flew out, the sky suddenly became much darker than before, and then a huge black vortex that almost covered the entire village appeared out of thin air in the sky.
At the same time, the snow locusts that were wreaking havoc in the village suddenly lost their collective weight. Thousands and thousands of densely packed snow locusts were involuntarily sucked into the black vortex and were instantly annihilated in it.
After a while, the giggling sounds all around disappeared completely.
When the sky returned to its cold white color, in the open space of the village, apart from the injured villagers, there was only a slender, pure white short snake.
Seeing that the work outside was done, Jiang Rong did not delay. The next second, he ran out from the side door and searched for a long time in a snow-white open space before he found the little short snake that had fallen into a coma again.
I don’t know how long I will sleep this time.
Jiang Rong reached out and took it into his right pocket, then discussed it with Lingyu in his mind, and the next moment the little short snake appeared in the jade talisman space.
Lingyu in the space looked at the short snake that suddenly appeared, just gave it a look, and continued to absorb the jade energy.
After Jiang Rong found the little short snake, she prepared to check on the other people in the village, and at this time Xin Jue Cai'er and the others had already gone out before her.
Cai'er now flew directly to a place not far from the village entrance.
There were people injured all along the way, some seriously.
The closer to the village entrance, the more people fell to the ground, and the ground was all red.
Zhao Caier took a quick look and estimated that there were no less than a hundred people, not to mention that they were only the ones at the entrance of the village.
There are only about 500 people in the village.
Apart from the sick, weak, old and young in the village, these people may be the backbone of Qingshan Village.
Zhao Caier looked at the crowd of people on the ground and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that these people were not seriously injured, otherwise it would definitely be a big blow to their village.
Jiang Rong and Xin Jue carried a few lightly injured people nearby and quickly entered a nearby house where some people lived.
Let’s put aside whether they get hurt or not, just don’t let people freeze to death on the road.
Let’s wait until everyone is inside before we talk about treating the injuries.
Not long after that, people began to come out of their houses in almost every direction throughout the village.
There are people of all ages.
They all came out to help carry people.
No one cared whose family the person belonged to. They carried the person to their own home. If they knew the family, they would call out the name of the family and take the person home.
But despite this, you can still hear crying all the way.
An old man was crying quietly.
A woman sobbed as quietly as she could.
There are also the confused but sad cries of children.
None of the people coming and going on the street had a good expression. Everyone's face was filled with dejection, frustration and regret.
It would have been a good thing.
How did it become like this?
Zhao Caier is now in a group with Uncle Zhao.
Xin Jue and Jiang Rong are in the same group.
Everyone was in a panic.
Jiang Rong and Xin Jue were carrying a seriously injured man at this time. His face was bruised and covered in blood, but judging from his clothes, it seemed to be the uncle from before, Chen Huangzong.
Jiang Rong frowned.
He recalled his silly wife and young children at home, and felt a little heavy-hearted.
"Rongrong, look at his face?" Xin Jue's somewhat surprised voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Rong's ears.
