Deep into the sea of insects, there is silence everywhere.
After night falls, there are rustling sounds from all directions, and it feels like there are countless insects in the darkness out of sight.
Led by the two prisoners, the team walked for half an hour into the night, and more than a dozen people were successively attacked.
Bai Song was detoxifying people all the way, getting faster and faster, and his techniques became more and more proficient.
But this is not a solution to the problem. Even with Liu'er's help, there will always be times when he is too busy.
You can also be more careful during the day, pay attention to the bugs around you, and try to avoid being infested by bugs.
It's different at night. If your eyes are dark, you'll be greeted by bugs if you're not careful.
"You can't leave. Stop and rest and wait until dawn before leaving."
Bai Song greeted, and everyone in the team finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They are all so worried, and every minute and every second is torture.
The team members began cleaning up the ground and using smoke in various places to avoid problems as much as possible.
There were a few injured people left waiting for detoxification, and Bai Song was a little busy.
However, few of the poisoned team members were willing to let Liu'er help with treatment, which made Liu'er a little depressed. He silently found a deserted place to sit down and stared at the rising bonfire in a daze.
Bai Song noticed Liu'er's emotional changes.
Although he was silent before, there was no confusion in his eyes.
Since the great witch's methods were revealed, everyone in the team has been avoiding her.
Bai Song was still a little scared in his heart, but this fear was diluted a lot after seeing the other party's performance.
On the contrary, Bai Song was full of curiosity about the profession of great witches and wanted to know what secrets they had.
After Bai Song took care of all the wounded, he first chatted with Qing'er, then calmly took a water bag and walked to Liu'er.
"Drink some water."
Liu'er, who was looking at the fire in a daze, looked up at Bai Song and silently took the water bag.
Bai Song took advantage of Liu'er's break to drink water and sat next to her.
Liu'er was very wary when someone approached him. He immediately stood up and moved to one side, keeping a one meter distance from Bai Song.
"What happened to the bug?"
"..." Liu'er stopped drinking water and looked at Bai Song with a frown.
"I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious. I want to know the relationship between the great witch and the Gu insect. And as you said, can the insect really read minds?"
Liu'er put the water bag on the ground and said in a low voice: "That's what I scared him. There is no mind-reading bug. That bug can kill him, and even control his nerves, forcing him to do some strange things." thing."
"Then why did the poison come out of your body..."
"Because the witches in Miao territory have become vessels for the poisonous insects since they were young. They use their own bodies to cultivate the poisonous insects and coexist symbiotically with them."
For some reason, Bai Song still got goosebumps after hearing this.
Liu'er glanced at Bai Song, seeming to capture Bai Song's inner changes.
But Bai Song is very good at hiding, at least in front of a teenage girl, he will not expose his heart.
"They are all avoiding me, aren't you afraid?"
"What is there to be afraid of? As a teammate, having people like you should make me feel more at ease."
A glimmer of light flashed in Liu'er's eyes, and it disappeared briefly, leaving behind an even more obvious loss.
Bai Song can understand this expression. A child who has been different from others since childhood must have suffered many stories that others cannot imagine.
Perhaps to prove his words, Bai Song moved his buttocks a little closer.
Liu'er was still nervous, so he stood up and moved away again, but this time Bai Song held his hand.
"I won't eat you, why are you hiding?"
This was the first time that the little girl was held by a man. She shrank in fright and quickly hid her hands in her sleeves, then steadied herself and stopped moving.
Bai Song looked at the other party and asked, "Tell me again. Anyway, everything is fine now."
"Say...what did you say?"
"Great witch, Gu worm, everything you don't know."
"This is Miao Jiang's secret..." the little girl whispered, but she had a very rare impulse at this moment.
This is a rare opportunity to talk. After living in the village for more than ten years, no one would ask such a question, let alone anyone willing to listen.
From the moment she was chosen to become a miko, Liu'er could only see two eyes in her life.
One is respect.
One is fear.
But these two looks mean nothing to a teenage girl, and all the excitement is lost.
Bai Song's vision is different, it is a kind of equal curiosity.
It's the kind of curiosity that different people should have when they meet, like the temptation between friends, or the mutual attraction between opposite sexes.
Bai Song gave the little girl the most wonderful experience with the dullest look in his eyes.
Especially after the other party has seen his differences, the man's eyes have not changed.
Some thoughts flashed through Liu'er's mind. After she finished telling these secrets, she said a serious word without any hesitation.
"I would never harm any of my friends or loved ones with the bugs in my body, ever!"
This little girl has been holding this sentence in her heart for too long, and she has never dared to say it out so bluntly.
Because this sentence is so feeble, everyone is more afraid of those elusive insects.
"You don't have to say it, I have never doubted you."
"real?"
"Really! Otherwise, I would sit next to you like this?"
"Well, I believe you, you are different from others."
Bai Song smiled and lay relaxed on the ground.
This is a rare forest land where you can see the night sky. The smoke from the bonfire floats into the air, covering the night sky with a layer of mist, but it reveals a hazy mood under the stars.
Not long after entering Miao territory, Bai Song felt that he had not seen the sky so relaxedly for a long time.
"Yes, I am indeed different from ordinary people. If one day you can understand my story, it will be truly bizarre. Your experience is nothing compared to mine."
"you……"
"But I can't tell you now."
Liu'er was thoughtful and fell silent.
"Stop being so vigilant, relax, look at the night sky, and you won't care about other people's opinions."
These words showed that Bai Song had already understood her thoughts. Liu'er frowned, then gradually relaxed, and followed Bai Song's example and lay down on the grass.
"The great witch of Miao territory can only cultivate a dozen or so worms in his lifetime, and he lives on the blood of the great witch. Every time he casts a witch spell, it means the death of a worm. In my heart, some people are not as good as me at all. The bugs matter.”
"Create more than a dozen Gu worms in a lifetime? But what about the marrow-eating Gu..."
"This is the reason why Marrow-Eating Gu is classified as a forbidden technique. Miaojiang Gu will only be used in the most important moments, for love, protection, and sacrifice, not for destruction and killing. Marrow-Eating Gu itself has exceeded Excluding the category of voodoo bugs, the basic characteristics of voodoo bugs are that they are fragile and slow to reproduce. They need to be dependent on the human body and require careful care by a great witch, so they are gradually domesticated. But the marrow-eating Gu is completely the opposite. It reproduces quickly and cannot be controlled. Once it spreads, it will Human power cannot stop it.”
