“The Venom Cult members can control people through the venomous bugs. If those people are controlled by them and attack us as a group, how much confidence do you have in escaping? If you don’t want this to happen, then you take responsibility for sending these medicines into their mouths. No matter what method you use, as long as they have eaten the human flesh in the restaurant, they must eat this medicine.”
Tiger Might frowned deeply. “Does this medicine work on those bugs?”
Su Ying said with a smile, “Yes.”
“Alright.” Tiger Might consented in a forthright manner.
“The faster you get this done, the better. Their stronghold has been destroyed. They might not be able to suppress the hatred in their hearts and could take action at any time.”
“Mm-hmm.”
Tiger Might took the medicine and stood up. ‘Til take my leave now.”
…..
After Su Ying sent Tiger Might off, Xiao Jin said, “When did you prepare so much medicine? How come 1 didn’t see it?”
Su Ying replied with a straight face, “I’ve already prepared it long ago. There are many things you didn’t see.” After she finished speaking, she ignored Xiao Jin, grabbed a pancake, and went outside.
After Tiger Might returned to the Tiger Base, he immediately ordered people to make a large quantity of mixed-grain buns. After the buns had been steamed, he got people to grind the medicine into powder and embed it in the buns. Thereafter, he sent his men to distribute the buns. Anyone who had eaten meat in the Dust and Gust Restaurant could get a mixed-grain bun for free.
When those people saw that there was free food, they naturally did not refuse. After all, food was still in very short supply in the Tiger Base, and many people went to collect the buns after receiving the news.
Tiger Might and his men suddenly sent more chickens to Su Ying. The livestock pen they had temporarily placed them in was now too small.
Su Ying didn’t have anything else to do that day, so she decided to build a new pen to keep livestock.
As the smell from these creatures was quite strong, she planned to choose a spot in the backyard further away from the main building. This way, no matter which way the wind blew, the stench would not reach the main building.
There was no roof shelter above the livestock pen they had built before, so it would be problematic if it rained.
Su Ying had cut some wooden planks and planned to use them as a temporary roof, but she still needed some straw to cover the roof. Her people didn’t have much straw, so they could only use bigger leaves as a substitute.
Su Ying thought for a while and decided to make a trip to the mountain. She left the house while it was still early.
As soon as she left, Wang Furong, who was hiding not far away, walked out. She looked straight in the direction in which Su Ying was heading. After making sure that Su Ying was far away, she turned to look at the wooden building that was barricaded by the very high fence.
She looked around to make sure that no one had seen her. Then, she quickly came to the outside of the wooden building compound and knocked on the courtyard gate.
Lin Zhuyu thought that Su Ying had forgotten to take something and had returned. She ran over excitedly, but before she opened the gate, she suddenly remembered Su Ying’s instructions and carefully checked the situation outside through the peephole.
When she saw that it was Wang Furong who knocked on the door, her face fell instantly.
“Who is it? Go away.”
Wang Furong recognized Lin Zhuyu’s voice and begged, “Sister Lin, please open the gate for me. 1 need to see the Master for an urgent matter.”
When she recalled Wang Furong’s shifty behavior on the way here, Lin Zhuyu said disdainfully, “1 was wondering who it was. So it’s you, Wang Furong. Mistress has already said that all of you have been driven away. Don’t come here anymore. Get lost quickly.”
Wang Furong didn’t want to leave. “Sister Lin, please show me some compassion. My father is dying. Please save him.”
“Your family are only strangers to us from now on. Why should we save you? Leave now, or 1’11 open the gate and beat you up!”
Wang Furong’s pleading voice could be heard from outside the gate all this while. Many people in the courtyard heard it, but no one cared.
When those people were with Su Ying, they had food, drinks, and a carriage to sit in. However, they were always against Su Ying and looked down on everything they were given. Now that something had happened to them, they wanted to come back. No way!
Wang Furong knocked on the gate for a long while, but no one answered. She could only leave reluctantly. She didn’t dare to come out for too long. If she was found out…
Wang Furong ran quickly all the way back to the house where she was staying. As soon as she entered, she saw the wrinkled old woman looking at her with a sinister expression.
Wang Furong was so scared that all the hair on her body stood up.
“Where did you go?”
Wang Furong lowered her head and said in a trembling voice, “I thought a chicken escaped… so I went after it.”
The old woman gave a strange laugh. “Did you catch it?”
Wang Furong lowered her head even more. “No… no…”
“It’s fine if you didn’t catch it, but don’t run all over the place anymore. There are bad people outside.”
Wang Furong nodded repeatedly and dashed into the house. As soon as she entered, she saw Wang Lang feeding medicine to Madam Sun without any expression.
Madam Sun’s eyes were still wide open and staring straight ahead, completely unfocused. She was sitting stiffly on the chair. When Wang Furong came in, she turned her neck to look at Wang Furong.
Her rigid movements were like a clockwork doll that had been wound up, and her lifeless eyes were terrifying.
Wang Furong didn’t even dare to look into Madam Sun’s eyes. She was so scared that she curled up on the side and didn’t dare to move.
Wang Lang turned his face to look at Wang Furong blankly. “Where did you go?”
“I went… went to do some work.”
Wang Lang’s face darkened in displeasure. “Don’t run around rashly in the future.”
Wang Furong nodded. “1 know. 1 know.”
The old woman turned around and entered the house, only to see a figure sitting in her room.
“This whole family came here with that woman.”
The old woman sat beside the man and gave a low chuckle. “So what if they did?”
“Give them to me. 1 have a use for them.”
“Hehehe! That won’t do. My son wants to keep them.”
“You damn old hag! They have caused me to fall into such a sorry state, yet you’re still not helping me?” That person’s voice was chilly and filled with rage.
“So even you experience failure at times too, Nan Zhong? You still have so many venomous bug soldiers that you’ve raised in your hands, haven’t you? What’s the point of keeping them? And you still insist on me helping you?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a black crow landed outside the door.
Nan Zhong stood up, walked over, and removed the message from the crow’s leg. When he opened and read it, his eyes narrowed abruptly.
“What’s wrong?”
“Tiger Might suddenly went to see that woman. After he left that woman’s house, Tiger Might suddenly distributed steamed buns to those people.”
The old woman gave a scornful laugh. “When did that poverty-stricken boorish man become so generous?”
Nan Zhong’s expression was ominous. “There must be something wrong. 1 can’t wait any longer. I’m going to tear them into pieces today!”
Achoo!
Su Ying, who was picking leaves on the mountain, suddenly sneezed.
She jumped down from the tree with a big handful of leaves in her arms. She tied the leaves with a hemp rope and put them all into her interspatial store. She also put some wild fruits she had picked in there.
When Su Ying saw that she had collected enough, she made preparations to leave the mountain.
“Help! Help!”
Su Ying had just turned around when she heard someone calling for help behind her.
She stopped in her tracks and turned around to see two men running over from the mountains with terrified expressions.
“The tiger is eating people. Help!”
Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes lit up.. A tiger!
