Chapter 21 Wait a minute, I'll help you fry it~
"What a shame, such good points were wasted."
Somewhere in a valley, Ji Ruo said regretfully.
The spider queen's poison was so strong that it could even corrode stones. The spider silk burned and emitting poisonous smoke. Regardless of whether the spider queen would die or not, the forest around her would be infected with severe poison. If she were not in the Qi Pulse Realm, she would not have such a strong resistance to the poison.
Wild points cannot be picked up again.
Several people: "..."
Liang Shixian couldn't help but say, "Ji Ruo, can you not be so impulsive in the future? How dangerous was it just now? What if your iron sand palm fails to ignite the spider silk? Then you will die if you go back! Although the spider queen is seriously injured, you can't fight her!"
Ji Ruo grinned and said nonchalantly: "Hey, isn't it okay? Don't worry, everything is under control!"
Was the boy impulsive? Of course not.
Although Liang Shixian is a good student, he is just an ordinary high school student after all.
He just wanted to lie still in the mud and wait for the spider queen to leave with her prey, and then they would be safe.
As a human being in two lifetimes, Ji Ruo sees things more deeply than Liang Shixian.
Although there will be a period of weakness when monsters are promoted, it will not take long for low-level monsters to advance.
The martial arts exam will not end until five days later, so Ji Ruo and others will have to stay in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain for another five days.
This period of time was enough for the Spider Queen to devour the six-barbed catfish and complete her promotion.
By then, if the fully evolved Spider Queen wanted to hunt them down, they would be facing a spider-type monster in its prime that had surpassed the Qi realm.
However, this is only a possibility. When the time comes, it is not certain whether the Spider Queen can find them.
But if possible, Ji Ruo doesn't want to gamble.
It is better to be safe than sorry. In this mountain full of beasts, it is never too cautious.
"By the way, teacher, you said before that unknown changes have occurred in the secret realm of Wanshou Mountain. What does that mean?" Ji Ruo suddenly asked.
He had already noticed something was wrong. Everything they encountered in the secret realm of the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts was different from what they were taught in school.
At least, the teachers at school never told me that goblins can speak human language and grow blood rice...
Even the inspecting warriors almost became food for the monsters!
Li Nannan pondered for a moment and said, "I'm not sure either. The originally designated area suddenly became chaotic, and then the network connection was interrupted. Some monsters and beasts that clearly exceeded the martial arts test standards appeared in the area under my jurisdiction..."
"The designated martial arts examination area is messed up?" Ji Ruo was stunned for a moment: "Then which area are we in now?"
In the secret realm of Wanshou Mountain, the area controlled by humans is only at the 'foot of the mountain', which is divided into sixty areas. The later the area number is, the more dangerous it is - this is knowledge from high school textbooks, and it is not a secret.
"I don't know." Li Nannan shook her head slightly: "My watch was damaged when I fought the Spider Queen before, so I can't check the electronic map, so I don't know which area we are in now..."
Ji Ruo frowned slightly. If it was not in the designated area for the martial arts exam, it would be too dangerous for him now.
[Absolute Sense of Direction] Although it can help you avoid danger to a certain extent, this ability is not omnipotent. The correction ratio is too low. The slightest mistake will lead to eternal damnation.
The other three also knew what it meant to "leave the designated area for the martial arts exam," and their faces showed deep worry.
Seeing this, Li Nannan realized that she had said the wrong thing - although this was the true situation, there were times when one could not tell the truth.
She comforted him, "Don't worry, the teacher will protect you... Something unexpected happened during the martial arts exam, and we can no longer follow the previous rules. The first priority now is to survive..."
Hearing this, Liu Neng couldn't help but say: "But teacher, you were also captured by the Nine-Eyed Demon Spider before, and it was Ji Ruo who rescued you. How did you protect..."
"Shut up!"
Ji Ruo scolded, "Can you speak? The teacher said he would protect us, so he will definitely protect us. What are you talking about?"
Liang Shixian also looked at Liu Neng with a bad expression.
This guy really can't talk!
Liu Neng opened his mouth hesitantly, but didn't say anything in rebuttal. He sat back next to Zhang Quan awkwardly.
Li Nannan looked a little embarrassed. She looked at Ji Ruo and said, "Classmate, your name is Ji Ruo, right? What that classmate said is right. I am really sorry for you this time. I was planning to..."
"Gululu~"
Before she could finish her words, Li Nannan's stomach suddenly growled and her face turned red with embarrassment.
Fortunately, her face was still covered with thick mud, so it couldn't be seen.
During the martial arts examination, all inspectors had to enter the examination room one day in advance.
Because not only do they have to familiarize themselves with the examination environment in advance, they also have to once again screen the martial arts examination area to see if there are any monsters and demons that are beyond the examinees' tolerance limits.
When Li Nannan first came in, everything was normal, but after she became familiar with and inspected the area she was in charge of, she was attacked by the nine-eyed demon spider.
The Nine-Eyed Demon Spiders usually live in groups, and there is a Spider Queen who is at the peak of the Qi Pulse Realm to put pressure on them. The Slow Demon Eye can even affect warriors at the Qi Pulse Realm, and they were defeated after a fierce fight.
For the next few days, she was trapped in the nest of the nine-eyed demon spiders, and was continuously injected with venom by a large number of nine-eyed demon spiders. She was paralyzed and in a daze until she was rescued by Ji Ruo.
It turned out that she hadn't eaten for almost three days. She had also been through a battle, and after being rescued, she had been using her body's Qi and blood to dilute toxins, and she was already exhausted.
Upon seeing this, Ji Ruo stood up, unzipped his school pants pocket, and pulled out two handfuls of blood rice stained with mud - most of the blood rice had been lost during the previous escape, leaving only the little bit blocked in the zippered pocket.
"It's almost time, let's eat... Teacher, you eat first."
Ji Ruo handed the blood rice to Li Nannan and said, "The conditions are limited, please don't mind it, teacher."
This time Ji Ruo did not use the iron sand palm to fry rice, because although he filled his trouser pockets full, the trouser pockets were so small that even if they were full, they were not enough to submerge his palms and could not trigger the 'fried rice' special effect.
"Is this...blood rice?"
Li Nannan was stunned for a moment. These blood rice were not even shelled. They were definitely not brought from outside the examination room, but were the "adventures" these students had in the "examination room".
"You guys eat first, the teacher is not hungry..." Li Nannan subconsciously wanted to refuse.
"Teacher, just eat. You are a warrior inspector. Only when you are full can you have the strength to protect us, right?"
Liang Shixian also chimed in, "Yes, teacher. It is much more useful for you to eat well than for us. Don't worry, eat well. If it's not enough, I have more here."
As he spoke, Liang Shixian also unzipped his trouser pocket and took out the blood-soaked rice.
Ji Ruo raised his eyebrows.
Unexpectedly, this monitor had the same idea as me. He did not put all the blood rice into the simple bag made of school uniform top, and there was still some left.
Li Nannan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, saying: "Okay, teacher, eat first, and then I will take you to find other food..."
However, Ji Ruo suddenly said, "Wait!"
Li Nannan opened her mouth and was ready to swallow it raw, but was suddenly stopped by Ji Ruo. Li Nannan thought that Ji Ruo had changed his mind.
But Ji Ruo took the blood rice from Liang Shixian and Li Nannan, mixed them together, put them on the ground, raised his palms, and gestured with something.
"Teacher, eating raw food is hard to digest." Ji Ruo said seriously.
Li Nannan: "It's okay, I..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Nannan was stunned.
She saw Ji Ruo put his hands into the bloody rice, his palms turned red, and he kept stirring it.
"Wait a moment, teacher, I'll fry it for you before you eat it."
Li Nannan was stunned.
"Iron Sand Palm, can it be used like this?!"
