Chapter 66 Fighting Poison with Poison
Mantuo looked at Shaohua and suddenly felt relieved. The childish princess had grown up and was now a capable princess of the demon world.
She subconsciously considered herself to be half of Shaohua's guardian. Shaohua wanted to retrieve the treasure for the demon world this time, so of course she would help him with all her strength.
"Princess, if there is anything you need my help with, just let me know." Mando said in a gentle tone.
But she still had concerns. Shaohua saw that she was in a difficult situation and still wanted to help her, so she got a little angry: "Sister Mantuo, you said you would help me, but how can you help me? With the look you have now?"
This was a very impolite statement, but Mantuo knew that she had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although she was so harsh in words, she felt sorry for her in her heart.
"It's okay, I'm used to it. Don't worry about me, I still have the ability to help you."
What Mantuo didn't say was that she was currently under the control of Rattlesnake, and that it was okay now, so any small movements wouldn't be detected. If she did anything to betray Rattlesnake, Rattlesnake would immediately discover it and punish her.
She was not afraid of punishment, but she was afraid of implicating Shaohua.
"Sister Mantuo, can the snake venom in your body be cured?" Shaohua asked uncertainly.
"If there was a way to solve it, I would have escaped from this man-eating cave long ago." Mantuo smiled bitterly.
It is precisely because there is no way to decipher it that many demons are willing to be controlled here and work for the rattlesnake.
Shaohua started to worry after hearing what she said, and suddenly remembered that Jiang Yi and the others were still outside. Her relationship with Jiang Yi had eased a lot now, and she had to admit that Jiang Yi was very smart, and she could always accurately see where something was wrong.
So we can ask them for help with Mantuo’s issue and we can work together to find a solution.
"Sister Mantuo, I have a few friends outside. They may know how to detoxify rattlesnakes." After Shaohua finished speaking, he walked outside and gestured to the four people to let them in.
Xuyuan ran in first: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Three people followed behind, and Jiang Yi and Bai Zhuo were both trying to suppress their smiles.
"Why are you running so fast? What if we are discovered?" Shaohua wanted to hit him.
Xu Yuan refused to admit defeat: "Who told you to stay in the house for so long? We thought something had happened."
"Sister Mantuo is here, what could happen to me?"
Jiang Yi quickly came out to smooth things over: "Okay, stop arguing."
They both turned their heads at the same time: "Tsk."
When he found that the other person was doing the same actions and saying the same words as him, he turned his head and prepared to argue again.
"No, no, no, stop arguing. Business is important. Shaohua, what's the matter with calling us in?" Jiang Yi grabbed Shaohua and stopped the two of them.
Shaohua's expression suddenly became extremely worried: "Sister Mantuo has been controlled by the rattlesnake's venom. You guessed right before, Sister Mantuo's actions are beyond her control."
After saying that, he walked to Mantuo and gently grabbed her wrist: "Sister Mantuo, can you show them?"
Mantuo didn't care and smiled at her: "I'm fine, just look."
After saying that, he lifted up his sleeve, revealing the rattlesnake mark.
"The rattlesnake poisoned my body. This is the mark he made. With this, we must obey him, otherwise we will die from the poison." After showing it to a few people, Mantuo covered his sleeves again.
"So I called you here to ask, is there any way to detoxify Sister Mantuo's poison?" Shaohua looked at everyone.
Jiang Yi was also at a loss, so he asked the system in his mind what to do.
Fight poison with poison.
The system gave these four words.
Jiang Yi fell into deep thought.
Fight poison with poison. The venom of the rattlesnake can be said to be the most powerful among all venomous snakes. In addition, it now relies on sucking the blood of children, so its demonic power has greatly increased, and its toxicity has also increased accordingly. Where can we find a venom that can match the toxicity of the rattlesnake?
"What you said makes me confused. How do I solve it?" Jiang Yi was speechless.
[The host can find another highly toxic poison, or use the gallbladder of a rattlesnake to make medicine.]
It would be too impractical to kill the rattlesnake and take out its gallbladder now, so Jiang Yi decisively gave up this option.
Just when she was hesitating, she looked up and saw Shaohua.
She suddenly thought that Shaohua was also a snake demon.
Snakes that can transform into demons are generally poisonous, which makes it convenient for hunting and can also protect themselves.
"Should we try to fight poison with poison?" Jiang Yi thought about it and began to propose to everyone.
"How do you fight poison with poison?" Shaohua was very excited when she proposed the method, and asked her quickly.
"Princess, you are also a snake demon, right?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"How toxic is the princess's snake venom?"
"Of course it's very powerful. It can take someone's life within two seconds." Shaohua was very confident.
Xu Yuan unconsciously leaned closer to Chen Yu, he was a little scared.
"That's fine. Since the princess's toxin is very powerful, I suggest that she inject her own toxin into Miss Mantuo's body to force out the rattlesnake's venom."
"If two poisons enter her body at the same time, will it kill her?" Bai Zhuo asked worriedly.
The others also had this skeptical thought and did not dare to agree with Jiang Yi's proposal for a while.
"I think Miss Liuli's suggestion is worth a try." After a long time, Mantuo said.
"Sister Mantuo, this is too risky!"
Mando patted her hand soothingly: "If I can get rid of Rattlesnake's control, then I am willing to take the risk."
Jiang Yi was not worried at all, because it was a solution proposed by the system and it must be feasible.
"Princess, the matter is urgent. Since Miss Mantuo said so, let's not delay any longer." Jiang Yi said to Shaohua.
Shaohua had no choice but to transform into her original form and wrap herself around Mantuo's wrist.
"Sister Mantuo, please bear with it for a moment."
Mantuo stroked Shaohua's head with her fingers.
Shaohua no longer hesitated, opened his mouth, revealed his fangs, and then bit Mantuo's wrist.
The poison was injected into Mantuo's body through the fangs.
After the successful injection, Shaohua quickly changed back and supported Mantuo who was about to collapse to the ground.
"Sister Mantuo..."
Mantuo's face turned purple, and two poisons were running rampant in her body. They were corroding her body together, and Mantuo was now in great pain.
"ah--"
"Oh no, Miss Mantuo's reaction is too intense. Master Shen, we need to protect her now, otherwise if Rattlesnake finds us, it will be bad!"
As soon as Jiang Yi finished speaking, Chen Yu sat down and pushed his palms towards Mantuo. A barrier made of spiritual power appeared around Mantuo.
"I'll come too!" Bai Zhuo and Xu Yuan also sat down and used their spiritual power to protect Mantuo.
Jiang Yi walked to the window and kept an eye on what was happening outside.
Mantuo struggled painfully in the spiritual barrier, sometimes turning into her original form, sometimes turning into a human form, and two deadly poisons fought in her body.
Now all we can do is wait, wait for Mantuo to get through it, wait for Shaohua's poison to be victorious.
After a long time, the spiritual power of Chen Yu and the other two was almost exhausted, and the movement from Mantuo's side gradually subsided.
"Sister Mantuo!" Shaohua's joyful voice came from inside the barrier, and everyone knew that Mantuo had survived.
"Princess..." Mantuo smiled weakly, then thanked the four guardians.
"Miss Mantuo's poison has been removed. Once the mark disappears, the rattlesnake will definitely notice it." Bai Zhuo stood up and said.
"Then what should we do now?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Let's go to the prison first and rescue Mu Feng and the others. We need to hurry over without delay."
