Chapter 344 Dangerous Breath
I wonder what Wu Sha's current situation is. Is the antidote I left for him last time enough?
Fang Qingyou was gazing at the bright moon outside the tent when she suddenly heard a commotion coming from Luo Qianmo's tent, as if something had happened.
I turned my head to look, but before I could see anything, I felt a numbness in my back.
The next moment, Fang Qingyou lost consciousness.
In the instant she lost consciousness, her anxiety intensified, because she had a feeling that something might have happened to Luo Qianmo.
Or maybe not, because didn't he just come over and put her to sleep?
That force was exactly the same as last time; who else could it be but Luo Qianmo?
But no matter what happened to him, why did he have to put her to sleep by pressing her pressure point?
Fang Qingyou slept soundly until the next day after her pressure point was pressed.
When I woke up, everything was calm and peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
Recalling the noises she heard before losing consciousness last night, Fang Qingyou called Yuefei over and asked her about them.
Yuefei, however, said that last night, several of Luo Qianmo's subordinates had a dispute over a certain plan.
Fang Qingyou had some doubts. Even if something like this had happened, she shouldn't have been put to sleep by acupressure, right?
She always felt that something more important must have happened, something that she had to avoid him from.
It wasn't until Fang Qingyou saw Luo Qianmo appear unharmed before everyone, seemingly without any problems, that she reluctantly believed the explanation.
Fang Qingyou had been looking at Luo Qianmo more inquisitively, but when she realized he was about to look at her, she immediately looked away.
Hmph, she wouldn't pay any attention to that scoundrel Luo Qianmo.
On the morning of the 16th, Luo Qianmo, Fang Qingyou and their group continued their journey.
At noon, we noticed that the sky had changed from its original gray color to red.
The sky was gray and lifeless all the way south, except for this area where the sky had become so eerily colored.
This place has reached the border of Jingzhi County.
The sight of that red color made Fang Qingyou's eyelids twitch violently, and a very bad premonition arose in her heart.
Perhaps, at this moment, Jingzhi County is like a den of dragons and tigers?
Luo Qianmo and the others also became increasingly solemn, as they could sense the danger emanating from the scene.
"Everyone be careful, try to stay close." Xuan Lan warned solemnly after receiving Luo Qianmo's signal.
At this moment, Yuefei had already tied her horse and Fang Qingyou's horse together so that she could react as quickly as possible to protect her.
The county of Jingzhi was quiet, but this quiet was not peaceful; rather, it was an eerie stillness.
The feeling was as if something terrible was lurking in the shadows, waiting to deliver a fatal blow.
In this dangerous atmosphere, Fang Qingyou had already placed the poison powder within easy reach, ready to use it at any time.
"Roar—" After a long silence, a beastly roar suddenly burst into the air.
When everyone looked around, they found that a group of pale red Gu worms had surrounded them.
This Gu worm is the same one that bit Ling Feng that day, but it seems to be even more dangerous than that one.
Luo Qianmo and his group joined the battle and, after expending considerable effort, finally managed to completely eliminate the Gu worms.
Compared to the Gu worms encountered before, this time it took significantly longer to kill them.
After traveling about two or three miles, the group encountered Gu worms blocking their way again.
It was still the same kind of Gu worm with serrated teeth, but it seemed to be of a higher level, and its skin had turned red all over.
This time, it took even longer to deal with these Gu worms.
After repeating this process, when the group finally arrived at the place where the insect plague had first broken out in Jingzhi County, Luo Qianmo, Fang Qingyou, and their companions were greeted by a dense swarm of Gu insects.
Besides the serrated tooth-shaped Gu worm, there is also a snake-shaped Gu worm.
Both were completely red, a blood-red color. The serrated tooth worm opened its mouth wide, revealing a sharp serrated tooth, while the snake-shaped worm flicked its blood-red tongue.
Compared to the previous Gu worms, these two types of Gu worms are much smaller in size, but their reactions and attacks are much more agile. Moreover, they seem to have intelligence and even know tactics, no longer foolishly rushing upwards.
The battle raged from day to night. Luo Qianmo and the others' physical strength and visibility continued to decline, but the Gu worms became more and more excited as night fell.
Gradually, more and more of these Gu worms gathered, and Fang Qingyou and Yuefei joined the battle.
Even so, the number of Gu worms they killed was far less than the number of Gu poisons they gathered, so their figures were almost completely submerged in the swarm of Gu worms.
Perhaps these worms hadn't eaten for a long time, because the grinding of their teeth at night sounded particularly eerie and chilling.
Fang Qingyou ultimately knew no martial arts, and even with Yuefei protecting her, she struggled to keep up with the fight.
These Gu worms proved to possess some intelligence. They seemed to have sensed Fang Qingyou's weakness and kept crowding towards her. Yuefei could initially handle it, but as the number of Gu worms increased, she became somewhat overwhelmed.
Several times, Fang Qingyou was almost injured by the Gu worms, but Yuefei reacted quickly and killed them.
However, this caused Yuefei to exhaust her strength exceptionally quickly.
Unfortunately, Fang Qingyou and Yue Fei were pushed far away from the others by the swarm of Gu worms, and most of the others were too busy to help themselves, making them seem somewhat isolated and helpless.
"Whoosh—" Finally, before Yuefei could react, a snake-shaped Gu worm suddenly pounced straight at Fang Qingyou.
"Hiss!" Just as the Gu worm was about to pounce on Fang Qingyou, it let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground, its body curled up into a ball.
The snake-shaped Gu worm quickly turned into a pool of bloody filth on the spot, and all the Gu worms within a one-meter radius around it were not spared.
At this moment, the space around Fang Qingyou and Yue Fei became a little more spacious, giving them a chance to catch their breath.
Yuefei realized what had happened, her face suddenly turned pale, and her expression became even more guilty: "Miss, are you alright?"
"It's nothing." Fang Qingyou shook her head, looking completely unconcerned.
In fact, she was so nervous that she was sweating. She kept an eye on her surroundings and noticed the snake-shaped worm rushing towards her. She waited until it got close before making a move because she was afraid of missing if it was too far away.
Although he was nervous, he deliberately pretended to be indifferent so as not to make Yuefei feel guilty.
Yuefei is human, not a god. She has done her best and done very well.
At this moment, Yuefei's expression softened slightly.
Not only because she had to protect Fang Qingyou, but also because she wanted to protect Fang Qingyou.
