I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 371
371 Outsiders (2)
Jiang Beiran had a strong physique, and he would usually take a poison pill to train his tolerance. Although the miasma was poisonous, it could not hurt him at all. It even made Jiang Beiran feel refreshed and refreshed.
Therefore, he did not know what would happen to ordinary cultivators after they inhaled the miasma.
Just as Jiang Beiran was about to take another deep breath to analyze the miasma, he suddenly felt a figure coming at him from the thick miasma.
After waiting for a second to make sure that no other options popped up, Jiang Beiran kicked the figure with a whip.
The figure that was hit by the question was sent flying dozens of meters away and smashed into a rock. Jiang Beiran used his spiritual power to sense the figure and realized that it was a Mythical Spirit cultivator.
!!
‘MiRan is actually useless in this miasma…’
This person was obviously here for him, which meant that Vanish’s concealment effect did not work at all.
Pulling up his mask, Jiang Beiran slowly walked toward the figure he had kicked into the rock.
As the miasma was too thick, Jiang Beiran had to walk up to the figure before he could finally see what he looked like.
He was wearing a colorful alien costume and looked completely different from the locals.
He had dark purple skin, cat-like pupils, a straight nose, and a pointed chin.
When he saw Jiang Beiran approaching him, the Outsider struggled to get out, but his body, which was stuck in the rock, could not move at all.
Just as he was about to say something, six teeth fell out of his mouth in a row.
“Who are you?” Jiang Beiran asked the strange-looking alien.
“@#¥@%..”
A long string of incomprehensible words spewed out from the alien’s mouth. He looked very agitated, and it was obvious that he was using some polite language to greet his family.
“Can’t speak human language?” Jiang Beiran asked with certainty.
“%@#¥!#..”
Another series of ” polite words “. Seeing that he could not communicate properly, Jiang Beiran punched the alien right in the face.
Bang!
This punch caused the Outsider to bleed profusely. Salty, sour, and spicy blood rolled out.
“The blood is the same red.”
Jiang Beiran looked at the alien’s face, which had been completely dented. He then pulled the body out of the rock and began to dissect the body.
After a thorough examination, Jiang Beiran realized that the alien not only looked different from the locals, but even his organs were different.
Their lungs were much larger than ordinary people’s, and there were many blood vessels connected to them. It was as if they were the hearts of these Outsiders.
After the lung was cut open, a white figure rushed toward Jiang Beiran’s face at lightning speed and protected his face with all her might.
“Shh ~ Little guy, calm down.”
The moment he was saved, Jiang Beiran knew that it was definitely a dung beetle. This type of Gu liked to spray out a poisonous liquid that had an anesthetic effect on the target, and then find a way to crawl into a hole.
Cautiously reaching out to grab the Gu, Jiang Beiran took out a jar of food specially prepared for the Gu from his Cosmos Ring. He scooped a little with his finger and placed it near the Gu’s mouth. The little fellow sniffed it and started eating eagerly.
“Hey, little guy, you bit my finger. Can you be gentler?”
By the time the Dung Beetle Gu had finished the entire jar of special feed, Jiang Beiran had more or less figured out its strength.
‘Hundred Refined Gu.’
They were the kind of “experts” who had fought their way out of a vat of hundreds of poisonous insects.
Keeping the Gu in his pocket, Jiang Beiran continued to dissect it.
“Hu…”
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Beiran took off his hand made of intestines and heaved a sigh of relief. Although the organs of the alien looked different from those of ordinary people, their functions were similar. Jiang Beiran deduced that it was probably because of the different living environment.
From their organs, they seemed to live in a place with high pressure. The structure of all their organs was adapted to this sub-strong environment.
‘A place with very high pressure…’
Jiang Feng thought for a moment, but he couldn’t think of anything special about Lanzhou.
Apart from that, Jiang Beiran had also captured four Gu worms from other organs, but none of them were as powerful as the Hundred Refined Gu in his lungs.
After memorizing the unique features of the Outsiders ‘body structure, Jiang Beiran continued to head southeast.
‘Looks like it’s not a natural disaster but a man-made one this time.’
Jiang Beiran believed that there was more than one such Outsider in the miasma, and judging from the Outsider who had attacked him at the first sign of disagreement, it was not difficult to tell that these people had a very clear goal, which was to kill them.
Whether it was their organs or the voodoo in their bodies, they would be extremely adapted to fighting in the miasma. Those mystic spirit realm cultivators in Feng Province would probably suffer a huge loss if they encountered them.
‘Where did these people come from…’
With such doubts in mind, Jiang Beiran continued to walk through the miasma. At the same time, he never stopped thinking about finding the relic.
“Boom!”
At this moment, a series of sounds came from the miasma not far away. It sounded like someone was using Celestial Chi to fight again, and their strength was obviously not low.
Using his Mentality to probe, Jiang Beiran discovered that the two people fighting were both Mystical Kings of the Fifth Stage. They could be considered evenly matched.
Jiang Beiran did not want to join in the fun of such an evenly-matched battle. After all, he was still in a state where he could barely protect himself. He had to find a way to deal with the miasma as soon as possible.
As they continued to move forward, Jiang Beiran’s psyche detected that more and more of the Sheng Kingdom’s powerhouses were embroiled in the battle, and their targets were the Outsiders.
After walking for a while, Jiang Beiran saw countless corpses lying on the road. There were commoners and cultivators.
Every time he saw the corpses of Mythical Tier powerhouses, Jiang Beiran would feel uneasy. At first, he was really worried that the others would be completely wiped out. If they were really wiped out, the problems that the Sheng Kingdom would have to face would be a lot more.
“Save…Save me.”
Just as Jiang Beiran was walking forward, a groan suddenly came from beside his feet.
Looking down, he saw a middle-aged man with his stomach cut open lying on the ground. Judging from his clothes, he should be from the Star Luo Sect.
Squatting down, Jiang Beiran first stuffed the intestines that had flowed out back into the middle-aged man’s stomach, then took out an Ambergris Pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
After a cough, Jiang Beiran said in a deep and hoarse voice,””Hold your stomach. It’ll be fine in a while.”
“Thank you, senior. I…” As he spoke, the middle-aged man’s eyes suddenly turned cold. His right hand suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and slashed down at Jiang Beiran.
There was a loud clang. Although the knife in the middle-aged man’s hand had struck Jiang Beiran’s neck, it did not cause any damage at all.
“Yes… I’m sorry, it wasn’t me. I didn’t want to cut it. I…”
Jiang Beiran, who had noticed that something was wrong with the middle-aged man, made a hush gesture and then suddenly put his hand into the middle-aged man’s mouth.
A moment later, Jiang Beiran pulled out his hand from a red centipede that was swaying wildly.
“Alright, you’re fine now.” Jiang Beiran comforted the red centipede in his hand as he spoke. He also asked for the man’s name. After learning that he was indeed a Star Luo Sect patrol, Jiang Beiran continued,””What happened to your team?”
Even though the patrol officer was still in shock, he still tried his best to answer Jiang Beiran’s question.
“I… After we entered this poisonous miasma, we quickly lost contact. This poisonous miasma was like a maze. My junior brother was behind me one moment, but in the next moment, I couldn’t find him no matter what.”

‘Labyrinth…’ Jiang Beiran frowned. He now understood why Yin Jianghong did not come to his rescue. It was probably not just because she could not get away, but also because he was ” lost “.
