Volume 2 Chapter 21 Make a dirty move 

Thankfully, Yan Qiyue who was knowledgeable about most things, promptly helped her reply: “These white spiders are especially fragile. The most suitable method to kill it was similar to what that brother did previously which was to release a firewall. You’ll murder them senseless. As for those small red spiders, they are able to consume chemicals. You have to use something physical to kill them, but make sure you don’t allow it to approach you because they are incredibly poisonous.”

It wasn’t that Yan Qiyue didn’t want Mao Laosan to have a total defeat, it was just if they all died then who would kill the spiders?

Hearing this, Mao Laosan immediately organized his elemental subordinates to release their moves, firewall, waterball, wind blade, earth spikes, they were all there.

Once most of the white spiders were killed off, then it was time for the wood elemental user and the gold users to make a move.

As for those strength and speed users, they could only bring out their handguns and shoot from the back which was better than doing nothing at all. This was because they had no courage to go fight up close. Once bitten and poisoned, they would be putting their own life at risk.


After fighting for most of the day, then did they finally wipe out all the tiny spiders. Besides the initial two people who died, there was another pitiful person. He was standing too close to the front when a few tiny spiders got through the guard and he was poisoned to death.

In a short while, three people have already died. Mao Laosan’s forehead veins were all protruding out and looked as if they were ready to burst. If they were to continue dying off like this, then before they could even find the item, they would already be completely wiped out!

Not saying anything further, Mao Laosan whipped out his gun and pointed at Shao Qing and Yan Qiyue: “You guys knew the spider’s weak point, why didn’t you mention it earlier?”

“Did we say it too late?” Shao Qing coldly retorted: “Leader Mao, you have to look at your conscience when you speak. Once we finally managed to react, we immediately told you the news. If it weren’t for the two of us, you and your entire team would have faced serious damages!”

Mao Laosan’s face became completely red. This was something he couldn’t not admit, what Shao Qing said was indeed the truth. After holding himself back for a long time, then did he coldly say: “Let’s go!”

Just when he took his step forward, Yan Qiyue lazily said: “We should change routes and make a detour.”

“Why?” Mao Laosan turned his head to give Yan Qiyue a vicious look that said if you don’t give me a good reason I’ll come tear you apart.

Yan Qiyue laughed: “Those kinds of spiders all flock together. They’re just like ants. If there’s one spider queen, that queen spider doesn’t have to come out to hunt. Its responsibility is only to keep reproducing. It would spit out white silk that is poisonous and extremely sticky. As long as something gets stuck on it, there would be no way out. However, after going through some treatment, this silk can be weaved into clothing that is impervious to gunshots and knives. Besides, the queen spider has numerous spiders surrounding it. If we try to attack, we would all probably die.”

Hearing the phrase ‘impervious to gunshots and knives’, Mao Laosan’s eyes flashed with greed. But he still knew himself well. If him and his group delivered themselves over there to capture the queen spider, they would either all die or be disastrously wounded.

Since their target isn’t the queen spider, they shouldn’t be too greedy.


“Detour!”

Hearing Mao Laosan’s words, Yan Qiyue was actually a bit disappointed. He was planning when the queen spider was put to death, he would take some of the silk and make his wife a protective corset to guard herself.

Shao Qing and him definitely would be able to capture the queen spider. However, if they were able to sway Mao Laosan into bringing his people, then they would be able to use up their strength and get the silk. It would be killing two birds with one stone.

Yan Qiyue secretly noted down the location, preparing to come back for the silk once he killed Mao Laosan.

The detour was a bit long, so once it reached night time, they cut down a few trees nearby to open up an area for them to rest. When the next day arrived, sure enough, another person died.

This person’s death provided nothing. There was no sign of wound or injury on their body. Mao Laosan was red with fury with his loss. He coldly spoke: “Last time it was because a mosquito had bitten them to death. What about this one? Don’t tell me he got bitten by a housefly!”

Yan Qiyue took a glance and spoke: “He’s poisoned. Look underneath his neck, is there a red line?”

Mao Laosan lifted the dead person’s chin and sure enough did spot a red line located right at the main artery.

However, Mao Laosan still didn’t believe it: “Impossible! Everyone slept together last night. How could he get poisoned out of nowhere?”

Yan Qiyue rubbed his chin then spoke: “He has food poisoning.”


Once those words came out of his mouth, Mao Laosan laughed and pointed at his own face: “Do you think I’m stupid?”

Yan Qiyue really wanted to agree with him, but in the end, held himself back and shook his head. Mao Laosan gritted his teeth: “If I don’t then why are you trying to trick me like a kid?! At night time, everyone ate the exact same thing. Why is it that everyone else is fine, but he is poisoned!?”

Yan Qiyue didn’t respond to Mao Laosan. Instead, he called someone who was familiar with the dead person and asked him: “Tonight, besides his dinner, did he eat anything else?”

That person thought hard then replied: “Yes….. he picked up some cherry tomato looking red fruits. He said it was wild cherry tomatoes and treated them as fruits to eat after dinner. He even offered some to me, but I was afraid it might have something so I didn’t eat it. I even warned him but he didn’t listen. He even said that his past home was near a mountain and he had eaten these numerous times and that it wasn’t poisonous.”

Yan Qiyue laughed at once: “That’s right. That wasn’t some wild cherry tomatoes but a type of poisonous fruit. But that wouldn’t have been deadly. But, it was because he also ate a number of mushrooms we picked. That fruit can’t be mixed with mushrooms just like how you can’t eat persimmons after drinking lamb soup or just like how lemon and prawns shouldn’t be eaten together, thus he died.”

What Yan Qiyue said seemed reasonable and in accordance with everything. This made Mao Laosan even more heated yet he couldn’t take it out on Yan Qiyue. With a dark expression, he reprimanded everyone else: “This is a forest, do you guys understand this? A forest! Don’t rely on the fact that you have some ability and eat anything you want. If you die from eating, no one will take care of you!”

Yan Qiyue didn’t say anything and smiled, then he pulled Shao Qing to follow the group. His face didn’t show any unnecessary expressions but inside he felt invigorated. What poisoned fruit that can’t be eaten with mushrooms. They were all something he had made up because that was indeed a wild cherry tomato.

He had personally seen that person eating that wild cherry tomato, thus he made a move on him. Even that red line on his neck was just an allergy.

But because he is the only one with medical expertise here, they couldn’t see through that trick.

The real cause of that person’s death was actually because the dodder had shattered that person’s heart, yet Mao Laosan had never thought that Shao Qing and them would be able to soundlessly attack them in secret. Thus to this day, he had still not realized anything. So far including Mao Laosan there are only nine of them remaining. Even if they were to have a fall out now, Shao Qing would still have an advantage and be able to put them to death. However, a lion fighting a rabbit still has to use all their strength, let alone that the few of them weren’t rabbits.


Entering the forest already, Shao Qing didn’t mind staying an extra few days with them. Why not go with them to find that item, then on the road slowly launch sneak attacks to ease the pressure.

Once they arrive at the riverbank with only six remaining, Mao Laosan had become easily frightened. Luckily they have already arrived.

This riverbank was extremely long and probably cut across the entire forest. To figure out the moistest area, they would have to go along with it to figure out.

The dangers along the riverbank were even higher than in other locations. Everyone including Shao Qing raised their guards. Because she had faced those dangers, no matter what she wasn’t ready to suffer another defeat.

For Mao Laosan it was because his people had been having unfathomable deaths. Since entering the forest, he had already lost more than half his team. He couldn’t allow anymore to die, otherwise, he won’t even be able to get out of the forest alive, thus they had to make sure they were alert.

Maybe it’s because they’ve been having the worst luck for the longest time, now their good luck is going off the charts. Walking alongside the river the entire day, they finally found what Mao Laosan was looking for.

Seeing that crooked shaft that sort of resembled an umbrella tree, he held back the cheer and excitement he felt and just stared at it excitedly.

After so many people had died, they have finally found it!

Shao Qing looked at Yan Qiyue and Yan Qiyue looked back at her. After restraining themselves for so long, it was finally the time to make their move!
