Chapter 170 Finding the Blister Beetle
Chapter 170 Finding the Blister Beetle
"Madam, miss."
When Shan Tong and Fei Jingmin saw that it was them, they immediately stepped forward and saluted.
"Get up."
Yang Lijun carried Huang Mulin out of the carriage, and Ling Yun and Fentian followed.
"We are going to the back mountain. We may not be able to come back today. Please take care of the carriage."
"Yes."
Yang Lijun took Huang Mulin by the hand and took Yu Ze and Lao Wang to the back mountain.
Huang Mulin finally stopped worrying after he went deeper.
To be honest, she didn't know how to start telling Yang Lijun and the others such a bizarre thing.
"what happened?"
Yang Lijun noticed early in the morning that Huang Mulin was struggling with something, with his brows furrowed.
"Mother, Uncle Yu, Uncle Wang, don't be too surprised when you see something strange later~"
What is this nonsense?
Aren't you surprised by strange things?
The three of them looked at Huang Mulin in confusion.
Even though Yang Lijun had seen them once, her heart couldn't help but shrink, not to mention Yu Ze and Lao Wang who she saw for the first time.
The two people were like cats with their fur standing on end, their entire bodies in a state of extreme alertness and attack.
Huang Mulin had an extra ginseng in his hand.
Appearing out of thin air.
It seemed to move a bit.
“This is Guichen.”
With a name! ?
Yang Lijun took a deep breath, her face a little stiff, "Gui Chen?"
"It's the ginseng we dug last time."
Then...where did the ginseng given to Shen Junkun come from?
The expressions of Yang Lijun and others were a little shaken.
"It is the root of returning to the dust."
Huang Mulin felt a little embarrassed when he saw their expressions.
It still scared them.
But, the scarier things are yet to come.
Huang Mulin put Gui Chen on the ground, and then... it left.
The hairs of Yang Lijun and others stood up!!!
It’s scary, isn’t it?!
This is a monster!!!
The three of them took several steps back together, holding their breath. Their bodies were stiff and numb, but they had to maintain a tense posture.
"Uh...Gui Chen is a good ginseng."
Huang Mulin nodded to convey her trust, "It doesn't eat people."
This is what I said...
They hadn't thought of this before!
One child, one ginseng, and three stunned adults stood facing each other for nearly a quarter of an hour.
"Gui Chen can help me find the blister beetle, and I also need Gui Chen's ginseng essence to exchange for it."
Huang Mulin explained to them.
After hearing Huang Mulin's explanation, Yang Lijun and the other two looked at each other.
Yang Lijun took a few more breaths and waved in the air. Two men in black clothes came up to her.
"Keep the secret to yourself." Her eyes and demeanor changed. "Otherwise I won't show any mercy."
"Yes."
"Go down."
The two of them left the place again. Huang Mulin looked for a long time but couldn't figure out where they were hiding.
These two people should be the secret guards that Yang Lijun arranged for her before, right?
She had totally forgotten about it.
unwise.
However, I think there shouldn't be any problem with what Yang Lijun did just now.
"Don't worry, as long as the two of them have evil thoughts, they will burn themselves to death."
A voice appeared in Huang Mulin's mind, but she didn't know whose it was.
Huang Mulin was stunned for a moment and immediately looked down at Ling Yun at her feet, then looked at Fentian who was standing on the branch, and it was also looking at her.
It matches the number.
My heart is beating so fast.
The world is becoming more and more mysterious.
"what happened?"
Seeing that something was wrong with the little girl, Yang Lijun was no longer afraid of any ginseng monster and hurried forward to check.
"fine."
Huang Mulin collected his thoughts and smiled at Yang Lijun, "Mother, let's go find the blister beetle."
"Ah."
She decided to put the shock aside for now, and wait until she returned to cure Huang Xilin before sorting out the surprises she had received today.
Yu Ze and Lao Wang saw them moving forward and quickly focused their attention and followed them.
The chubby ginseng doll led the way, followed closely by the kitten, the red bird flew leisurely in front, and behind it were three adults and one child following silently. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Gui Chen turned and turned, and after walking for nearly an hour, it stopped.
Looking at Huang Mulin, the little roots pointed forward.
"You mean in front?"
The little red fruit shook.
"So...how do I find it?"
The little roots patted the little body.
"You go?"
Huang Mulin was a little worried: "Will he be eaten?"
When Gui Chen heard this, he immediately jumped up and down on the spot in dissatisfaction, rolled several times, and his body was immediately covered with a lot of dirt.
"Okay I'm sorry."
Like a child who has not grown up.
Yang Lijun and others murmured secretly.
"Then go ahead, be careful~"
Gui Chen happily walked forward through the tree roots, and Fentian followed.
Ling Yun found a place and lay down comfortably. He also glanced at Old Wang who had been staring at him, with obvious human emotions in his eyes.
Old Wang thought that these two little pets were not simple.
With a "bang", a loud noise came from the front.
Huang Mulin and others were on edge.
After waiting for a moment, a red dot flew towards them from far away, and there seemed to be a large black object that was moving.
Soon, Fentian brought a beetle that was twice as big as its body to Huang Mulin and others.
Yang Lijun quickly embraced Huang Mulin, fearing any accidents.
Behind him, Gui Chen was jumping up and down at a very fast speed, and returned to Huang Mulin in a few breaths.
Fentian threw the blister beetle, who was twisting its body to break free, into the mud and let out a crisp cry.
Be honest.
The world is mysterious again.
Huang Mulin took a deep breath and asked, "Speak to it directly?"
She doesn't know whether human language and insect language are compatible.
“It understands.”
Fentian's voice came into my consciousness.
"Hey... Master Cantharides, my third brother hit his head on the table. There is a big bump and blood clots in his brain. I need your help..."
She really didn't know what to say.
The book says that the blister beetles should be suffocated or scalded to death, then dried for use as medicine.
Unable to speak.
Sure enough, after hearing her words, the blister beetle's entire body was in an attacking state, and its thin wings flapped rapidly, making a roaring and harsh sound.
Headache.
The next second, Fentian held down the blister beetle with one of its bird claws and stepped into the mud, sinking half of its body into it.
......
Fentian, you are such a violent bird!
"Gui Chen, you say."
Huang Mulin decided to let them communicate on their own.
Anyway, she couldn't understand what the blister beetle said. It was like they were talking to a deaf person, which was very frustrating.
Gui Chen walked to the blister beetle whose half body was buried in the soil, and poked half of his body into the soil. The roots of the remaining upper body kept waving, and the small red fruit on top of its head kept swaying, sometimes accompanied by the swaying of leaves.
Huang Mulin was no longer afraid. He gave Yang Lijun a reassuring look, let go of her hands, walked to their side, squatted down, and observed the blister beetle.
It is oblong, much larger than the cantharides described in books, with a flat head and mouth that droops downward, large compound eyes and antennae, and three pairs of legs on the chest. The carapace is shiny black with three yellow horizontal stripes, and the elytra have two membrane-like inner wings below.
Except for the size, everything else is correct.
