"Isn't this the captain's secret weapon?"
All the guards looked at Sun Gang, who said irritably, "How could I possibly have such a powerful secret weapon? Besides, if I did, I would have taken it out long ago!"
Gu Weiyun and Gu Lingxuan arrived here together, offered their condolences to the guards, and promised to give them extra spirit stones.
They also learned about the casualties.
Fortunately, none of the guards were killed by the monster, but seven or eight people were poisoned by the three-headed demon hound and were now lying on the ground unconscious.
However, if they do not receive timely and effective treatment, these guards will inevitably die.
"We should arrive in Zhonghao City in about three days. We can ask the renowned doctors or alchemists there to treat them. You should rest for a bit, and then we'll transfer them to the carriage," Gu Lingxuan said.
"Thank you, Miss." Sun Gang nodded in satisfaction.
Gu Lingxuan gracefully approached Sun Gang and asked in a low voice, "Sun Gang, that white smoke just now, you didn't create it?"
"Miss, you overestimate me. How could I possibly have that ability?" Sun Gang shook his head repeatedly.
After a pause, Sun Gang said, "I suspect that the white smoke is the rumored beast-repelling powder."
Upon hearing the words "beast taming," Gu Lingxuan's expression changed slightly.
As the name suggests, Beast-Repelling Powder is a medicine used to ward off evil beasts.
Although it is a medicine, not a panacea, the beast-repelling powder is very valuable and requires several very precious medicinal materials to make.
Furthermore, since the Beast-Repelling Powder is effective against demonic beasts and is a type of medicine specifically designed for them, it is quite useless.
Martial artists who need the beast-repelling powder cannot afford it.
Those who can afford it will never go into the wilderness to be attacked by monsters.
Over time, fewer and fewer animal-repelling powders will be available on the market.
Before setting off, Gu Lingxuan originally planned to buy some beast-repelling powder and even consulted several alchemists in Nanyue City about it.
However, the other party told her that it would take at least ten days to refine the beast-repelling powder for her, which was simply not enough time, so Gu Lingxuan did not prepare it in the end.
Seeing Gu Lingxuan's ever-changing expression, Sun Gang whispered, "Miss, I suspect that the beast-repelling powder was used by that young master Feng."
Why?
Gu Lingxuan asked immediately.
"I saw small white balls fly out of the last carriage, and then beast-taming powder exploded around the three-headed demon hound, so that's what I think. Of course, this is just my guess, and I can't guarantee whether it's true or not," Sun Gang said seriously.
"It's probably true."
Gu Lingxuan nodded slowly and said, "There are only us here. You didn't use the beast-repelling powder, and neither did my father or I. So the person who used the beast-repelling powder must be Young Master Feng or his sister."
Thinking of this, a look of joy appeared on Gu Lingxuan's face.
Could it be that young master Feng is actually an alchemist?
Gu Lingxuan was a little excited and quickly strode towards the last carriage.
"Xuan'er, where are you going?" Gu Weiyun called out hurriedly.
But Gu Lingxuan left without looking back, as if she hadn't heard her father's calls.
Left with no other choice, Gu Weiyun said to his maid Chuntao, "Chuntao, hurry up and follow her!"
"Yes, sir."
Chun Tao nodded vigorously and chased after Gu Lingxuan.
On the last carriage, Ye Feng put the two small white balls in his hand back into his storage ring.
These two small white balls are the Beast-Repelling Powder. To use them, simply inject your true energy and fling them out. Once they hit the ground, the Beast-Repelling Powder will explode into a large cloud of dust, thus achieving the effect of repelling demonic beasts.
Moreover, the more sensitive a monster's sense of smell, the better the effect of the beast-repelling powder.
Therefore, the Beast-Driving Powder, which should only be effective against fifth-rank and lower-rank demonic beasts, also had a very good effect on the sixth-rank demonic beast, the Three-Headed Demonic Hound.
Because the three-headed dog has an extremely keen sense of smell!
"I thought you would step forward and kill those monsters directly," Luo Qingling said with a smile.
"There's nothing good on the three-headed demon hounds, killing them is pointless," Night Wind shook his head and said calmly.
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, footsteps sounded outside.
"Young Master Feng, may I come in?"
This was the voice of Gu Lingxuan, the daughter of the Chamber of Commerce.
It seems that Gu Lingxuan has realized that it was she who drove away those monsters.
Night Breeze smiled and said, "Come in."
The maid Chun Tao immediately lifted the carriage curtain, and Gu Lingxuan gracefully boarded the carriage, casting curious glances at Ye Feng and Luo Qingling.
"Young Master Feng, did you release the beast-repelling powder that drove away the three-headed demonic hound just now?" Gu Lingxuan asked bluntly.
"Does it matter? Anyway, the monster is gone and the danger is over," Ye Feng said nonchalantly.
"Of course it's important."
Gu Lingxuan said with a smile, "If it really was you, Young Master Feng, who helped us, then of course our Deer Merchant Guild should reward you. We can't let you do this for nothing. Our Deer Merchant Guild is quite famous in Nanyue City, how could we treat those who helped us unfairly?"
Seeing Gu Lingxuan's seriousness, Ye Feng nodded and said, "That's right, it was indeed me who used the Beast-Repelling Powder to drive away the three-headed demon hound."
After saying that, Ye Feng took out a beast-repelling powder and handed it to Gu Lingxuan.
Gu Lingxuan took the beast-repelling powder, smelled it, and was quite certain that it was indeed Ye Feng who had made the move.
Because this is indeed a beast-repelling powder!
"Thank you for your help, Young Master Feng. Without your assistance, our caravan's guards would have been no match for those four three-headed demon hounds." Gu Lingxuan returned the beast-repelling powder to Ye Feng and gave a graceful bow.
Luo Qingling asked curiously, "Didn't you just say you were going to reward us?"
Gu Lingxuan smiled and said, "Ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, how about that? Of course, this is not only a reward for Young Master Feng's help this time, but I also hope that Young Master Feng can continue to help us on the journey ahead. Moreover, Young Master Feng, you must be an alchemist, so I hope you can help our caravan's guards detoxify."
"We just fought the three-headed demon hound, and seven or eight of them were poisoned and fell unconscious. I don't know if they can hold on until the caravan arrives at Zhonghao City. If they die on the way, it will really be... such a pity."
Night Breeze's face showed an expression of great interest.
"How did you know I'm an alchemist?" Ye Feng asked with a smile.
Gu Lingxuan looked at the beast-repelling powder in Ye Feng's hand and said, "This beast-repelling powder must have been made by you yourself, right, Young Master Feng? I've seen beast-repelling powder before, and none of the ones on the market are as good as the one in your hand. So it must have been made by you. And since you can make beast-repelling powder, you must be a skilled alchemist."
