Upon hearing this, Daqing didn't hesitate and started digging.
Its two hands turned into claws, and it quickly dug at the ground.
Seeing Su Tang and the others' actions, Ying Yiyi curled her lip and couldn't help but sneer:
"What time is it? Still digging in the dirt? Are you planning to dig a hole and bury yourselves?"
Su Tang only glanced at her, not bothering to pay her any attention.
Soon, the two people and their child dug up a large area of yellow stones.
As the stone was unearthed, a pungent smell wafted out.
"What are you doing? It stinks..." Ying Yiyi covered her nose in disgust and moved away.
Su Tang's face lit up with joy. "Da Qing, help me dig these stones out."
As she spoke, she picked out two stones, rubbed them together vigorously, and then smeared the scraped powder onto Daqing's body.
"A-Tang, what's the use of this stone?" Da-Qing asked curiously, though he didn't mind the smell.
When I lived in the forest, I smelled every unpleasant odor imaginable.
"This is realgar, the thing that snake beasts fear most. If you smear this on your body, the snake beasts won't eat you."
Su Tang explained, applying Da Qing first, then Si Bao.
Realgar, also known as stone yellow, golden stone, and cockscomb stone, is soft and brittle and can repel insects and snakes.
The reason the giant python didn't approach this area wasn't because it was blocked by Hu Shen and his group, but because the ground here was full of realgar, making it impossible to get close.
The fact that the area to the east of where they stood showed no signs of being affected by the earthquake is the best proof of this.
"Really?!" Daqing was both surprised and delighted, and his hands moved even faster as he dug for realgar.
Sibao also stuck out his butt and dug diligently.
Soon the two men and their child dug up a pile of realgar.
Su Tang tore a piece of animal hide from her luggage, wrapped the realgar stones in it, and handed it to Da Qing.
"Daqing, take this realgar to Hushen and the others, and use it to deal with it."
She looked at the snake-beast in the distance that had begun to molt and was about to transform into a dragon.
Although snakes are most vulnerable when they shed their skin, this snake is clearly different from ordinary snakes. Even when shedding its skin, it is not afraid of external interference at all.
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Daqing nodded hurriedly, carrying a large bag of realgar stones, and flew towards Hu Shen's direction.
When Ying Yiyi heard what the two were saying, she thought the female had gone mad.
Can a pile of stones really defeat the snake beast?
What was she thinking? Did she really think these stinky stones could kill the snake-beast with their stench?
The brother and sister looked completely dumbfounded at Daqing's suicidal actions.
Yingtai even felt a pang of regret; such a beautiful female was about to die here, it was truly a pity.
If his entire tribe hadn't died, he could have taken this female with him.
He stared intently at the other side, ready to leave with Yiyi the moment there was even the slightest sign of a decisive victory.
...
at the same time.
The giant python that devoured Mo Bai had completely lost its mind. Its eyes were bleeding, like two huge blood spheres, and the original color of its pupils could no longer be seen.
Its massive body rolled around continuously, making it difficult for Hu Shen and his companions, who wanted to take the opportunity to deal with it, to get close.
The black snakeskin was faintly cracked, revealing huge, jet-black scales inside, exuding a chilling aura.
Even a fool would know that the scales inside must be harder than their previous scales, making them difficult to break.
Killing it is even harder!
Just when the group was at their wits' end, Da Qing's voice suddenly came from above.
"Ah Yuan, Hu Shen, catch!"
"Ah Tang said the snake beast is afraid of this, so we'll use this to deal with it!"
As soon as Da Qing finished speaking, Su Jianyuan saw the animal skin package being thrown down from the sky.
A strange smell wafted out of the package. Su Jianyuan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening.
It's realgar!
That's wonderful! There's always a way out!
Su Jianyuan leaped up, caught the package containing realgar, and couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Haha! Sister, you are truly your brother's lucky star!"
As he spoke, he quickly took out the realgar stone from inside and distributed it to Hu Shen and the other two.
Hu Shen looked at the orange stone, a hint of doubt flashing in his deep eyes, but he took it without hesitation.
He knew that now was not the time to ask questions.
Like Hu Shen, Niu Li and Ying Jiejian didn't speak to Wang, nor were they allowed to ask questions.
"Smear this on your claws, and try to throw the rest into the snake beast's mouth."
Su Jianyuan didn't waste any time and quickly explained how to use it.
Realgar is highly poisonous to snakes; if the snake can ingest it, the problem can be solved.
As they spoke, the group deftly crushed the realgar stone and smeared the yellow powder on their claws.
“But how do we get it to eat? We can’t even get close to it…” Yingjie said, frowning.
At this moment, Hu Shen took the remaining realgar stone from Su Jianyuan's hand.
"A Yuan, Niu Li, you two lure the snake beast over. Ying Jie, if you can avoid its attacks, attack its eyes. Leave the rest to me."
After saying that, Hu Shen took the remaining realgar stone in his mouth and went around to the side of the snake beast.
Seeing this, Su Jianyuan didn't dare to delay and did as Hu Shen said.
He silently prayed that nothing bad had happened to the kid, otherwise where would he find such a good brother-in-law again?
In a short time, most of the python's skin had been shed.
Its upper body had stood up and stopped twisting. It seemed that the transformation had lessened the pain on its body, leaving only the desire to eat orcs.
Without a doubt, it has become a complete monster.
As Su Jianyuan and Niu Li approached, the giant python's blood-red eyes fixed on them, and it quickly twisted and chased after them.
Both of them only wiped their claws; the excitement of the transformation made the giant python completely ignore the faint smell of realgar.
Eagle Swift also arrived in mid-air, seized the opportunity, and used its talons to grab the giant python's eyes.
The giant python showed no fear, opening its mouth wide in an attempt to swallow Ying Jie whole.
The next second, Yingjie suddenly turned around, retracted its claws, and its sharp wings, like knives, sliced across the giant python's eyeballs.
In an instant!
The giant python opened its mouth wide in pain, letting out a series of roars.
Just then, a yellow figure flashed past from the side, right in the giant python's blind spot.
A yellow shadow flashed by and leaped directly into the giant python's mouth.
The python sensed something and immediately closed its mouth, intending to devour the creature that had jumped into its mouth to its death.
Seeing this, Su Jianyuan was completely dumbfounded.
"Damn it! It's about putting realgar in, not telling you to feed it to the animals too!"
If something happens to Hu Shen, how will he explain it to Su Tang?
Niu Li and Ying Jie were also surprised.
Their king was swallowed by a giant serpent?!
