Chapter 192 Punishment
Tang Xue looked at the giant snake in shock. Even though the snake was dead, the aura it exuded was still scary.
Wang Yue, Min Wu, Lan Xin, Wang Teng and others put the giant snake, the green-scaled beast and the snake skin onto the mechanical vehicle. The snake's body was too long, so they could only tie the front half to the vehicle and drag the back half behind it. Everyone dragged the spoils back together.
Snake gall can be used to make medicine, snake venom can be extracted to make poison, snake meat can be eaten, snake skin and snake slough can be used to make soft leather armor, soft whips or weapon handles, and can also be tanned into a rainproof roof covering the top of a mechanical vehicle.
In addition to the giant snake and the green-scaled beast, Lin Mo and others also had a lot of gains. They brought back some prey and some exotic spiritual fruits. Lan Xin drew maps of these prey and exotic spiritual fruits, and selected some iconic features of the prey as evidence of hunting. Then they dissected, divided and processed the prey in the same way as they processed other materials.
In the central cave that served as the meeting hall, everyone looked at the two snake eggs. Tang Xue said fearfully, "Why bring them back? It would be so scary if snakes hatched out of them. These are the offspring of that big snake, so they must be poisonous. Let's smash them and throw them away."
"That's such a waste. It's better to cook them and eat them. Or they will be delicious if you fry them in a frying pan." Kyuubi disagreed with throwing them away. He looked at the snake eggs as if they were some delicious food.
"Master Contract Master, what are you going to do with these snake eggs you brought back?" Lin Mo asked Ning Xuan. At the same time, he glanced at Yun Han who was standing behind Ning Xuan. Yun Han's face looked a little strange, as if he was forcibly enduring something, so that his facial expression was a little stiff.
"Yunhan, what's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" Lin Mo asked worriedly when he saw that Yunhan looked not right.
Ning Xuan looked back at Yun Han, then reached out and patted him, saying that Yun Han had worked hard in killing the strange beast, and asked him to go back and rest, then turned around to continue discussing the disposal of the snake eggs.
When Ning Xuan slapped him, Yun Han felt that the vines wrapped around him were retracted by Ning Xuan. The stinging pain from the thorns on the vines gradually subsided, but the numbness, itching and swelling surged up. Yun Han's fingers hanging by his side spasmed slightly, and his nails dug deeply into his palms. Yun Han closed his eyes, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he swallowed back the muffled groan that was about to come to his mouth.
He felt as if countless ants were crawling under his skin in the places where the vines had entangled him. The fine tingling and numbness and itching intertwined into an invisible web that wrapped him up completely.
"Yun Han, take your leave." He bowed his head, his voice even hoarser than usual. When he turned around, the fabric rubbed against the red and swollen marks on his arms, and the itchiness made him almost unable to control the urge to scratch.
The moment he walked out of the conference room, Yun Han's breathing became noticeably faster. He walked quickly through the empty valley until he entered Ning Xuan's cave, then he leaned against the wall.
The wound on the back of his neck caused by the sharp thorns was burning fiercely, and what was even more unbearable was the strange numbness brought by the vine poison - it was as if there were tiny hairs moving in the blood vessels, and the skin and flesh became extremely sensitive wherever they passed, especially the two sensitive areas on his chest. In addition to the swelling and throbbing pain, there was also an unbearable itch that went straight to the heart.
He clenched his teeth, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. The worst thing was that the energy in his blood was running rampant, throbbing and throbbing, and the flesh under his skin seemed to have its own consciousness, squirming uncontrollably. Yun Han could feel the lust he was trying to suppress, just like the magma in a volcano, the more he suppressed it, the hotter it became. Now, seeing that he couldn't suppress it anymore, he wanted to cut a few cuts on his body to relieve his depression, but according to the rules, he couldn't hurt his body without permission.
When Ning Xuan came back, Yun Han was kneeling at the entrance, looking like he had just been pulled out of the water.
Ning Xuan bent down and picked up Yun Han. "Aren't you the one who came to ask for forgiveness? Yun Han, are you satisfied with this punishment?"
Yun Han had exhausted all the strength in his muscles in order to fight against the surging desire. Now that he was held in Ning Xuan's arms, he didn't want to move at all.
"It's not like that, Master, according to the rules, I..." Before Yun Han could finish his words, he was thrown onto the bed by Ning Xuan.
"If you feel the punishment is not severe enough, let's continue." Ning Xuan's words made Yun Han shut up wisely.
In the next month, Ning Xuan's team used Lingquan Valley as a temporary base and moved around the surrounding area, hunting exotic beasts, collecting exotic plants, drawing maps, and taking care of their own practice. Ning Xuan also used the various materials they found to refine potions and simple weapons. The potions and weapons they refined, the pickled jerky, the furs and other materials they obtained, could be taken to a nearby safe zone to accumulate merit points, or exchanged for the supplies they needed.
All work is proceeding in an orderly manner.
The early mornings in Qingquan Valley always bring a hint of damp coolness. The thorny vines planted outside the valley have eaten many small exotic beasts that have intruded, and have become very lush.
Of course, occasionally there would be some powerful beasts that broke through the encirclement of the thorn vines and entered the second layer of defense. Those beasts that entered the second layer of defense eventually became fertilizer for the thorn vines.
That morning, Ning Xuan took a deep breath of the air filled with the fragrance of grass and trees, and greeted the others. After more than a month of working together, the team of thirteen had already developed a good understanding of each other.
"Today our goal is to explore the stone forest in the northwest." Ning Xuan took out a hand-drawn map from her backpack and spread it on the stone table, pointing to a blank area on it. "Based on our observations over the past few days, there should be traces of strange beasts' activities here, and there should be a strange beast's nest under the stone forest."
"Zhang Nan and Min Wu will be the vanguards and go in to find out the situation first. If there is any danger, Min Wu will immediately take Zhang Nan back." Ning Xuan arranged.
"Once we have found out the basic situation, we will move forward immediately." Since Ning Xuan obtained those Hunyuan Spirit Stones, her cultivation speed has increased a lot, and the power of the Suzaku Fire has become stronger. Therefore, Ning Xuan is now very interested in places like caves and caves. However, it seems that only she can use these spirit stones, and Yun Han, Di Youlin and others cannot use them.
After breakfast, they packed up their belongings and vehicles, opened all the traps outside the valley, and then they prepared to act together.
The two mechanical vehicles drove for about an hour, and the materials for assembling the other mechanical vehicle were exchanged from the nearby Panshi Safe Zone.
They came to a place with strange rocks. The area of the stone forest was very large, and most of the rocks were sharp as knives. Rock pillars over two meters high pierced the sky. Many of the rocks were stained with scarlet blood, and there were white bones scattered around.
Two mechanical vehicles stopped in front of the entrance to the stone forest, and Ning Xuan and others got off the vehicles.
