Yao Ling saw the wooden box and understood his intentions. He said to Wuji, "I've thought about it, this technique of yours might be effective, but it's not right! "Come on."

When Wei Wuji saw that his third brother agreed with his idea, he opened the box and poured out a handful of black rice grains.

Everyone was curious and came over to take a look. However, it was not rice grains. It was a pile of black bugs the size of rice grains. However, those bugs had already shriveled up, and they looked like they had been dead for a long time.

Afraid that Ashley would struggle, Wei Wuji took out the gunpowder, the Sweet 'n' Sour Honey, and injected it into her neck. After she had completely fallen asleep, he poured those shriveled black bugs on top of her poison.

Strangely, once those bugs came into contact with the poison, they immediately came to life, shaking their heads and wagging their tails. Gradually, their shriveled bodies began to swell up, and a moment later, they regained their vitality. They began to desperately drill their heads into the poison, exposing only a portion of their pointed buttocks on the outside.

Everyone had witnessed the black bugs bite their venom. Although they understood Wei Wuji's brilliant idea, they were indeed watching with disgust.

Commander Lei asked curiously, "Fourth brother, what kind of insect is this? It makes all my hair stand on end."

Wei Wuji laughed and said to him: "This is a Gu worm that originated from the Han Dynasty. Its name is already untraceable, and it has been given a nickname, called Crab Competition."

Commander Lei blinked his eyes, thought for a while and said, "Crab competition? Isn't that just stir-fried chicken? What does it have to do with these bugs? "

It is said that in the Han Dynasty, there was an official surnamed Yang who was promoted all the way through his flattery. His colleagues all despised him and wanted to toy with him, so he got a Gu Nanny to give him a Gu worm, this little black bug. That person didn't have any other abnormalities after being infected with the Gu, so everyone thought that Gu Nu had failed. One day, this Master Yang met a beggar. His body was full of big sores, and he was already festering. Lord Yang suddenly went crazy, pouncing over to hold the beggar down, stretching out his mouth to suck the pus and blood from the beggar's great wounds, no matter how his servants tried to stop him, it was useless. From then on, Lord Yang began to search around for people who were having sores and pus, taking in their sores and telling them it was delicious. The taste was extremely delicious and was better than fish, shrimp, turtle, and crab. In the end, this Lord Yang was fortunate from his misfortune. He was promoted to a few ranks because he had helped a superior suck the sores on his buttocks. However, his luck was bad, and he died suddenly within a few days of taking up the post. It was precisely because he always said that venomous sores taste better than shrimp and crab, that the person who knew about it gave this Gu worm the nickname of "battling crab". In the three kingdoms, there was a man named Chen Deng. He was the man who killed Lu Bu for Cao, beat Sun Ce back several times, and was pursued by Liu Bei. Chen Yuanlong of Xuzhou enjoyed eating and living, but ended up being killed by a Gu worm sent by Dong Wu. Even the Godly Doctor Hua Tuo was unable to save his life. It was said that when he died, he spat out three liters of insects, and that was precisely this type of Gu crab. These Gu are not only able to harm or save people, they can also be placed on the surface of the body to help people bite off poisonous festers and rot their muscles, or they can also be swallowed within the diet, harming people's lives. "

Commander Lei heard Yao's story, looked at the Gu worm on Ashley's arm and felt like vomiting. He waved his hand and said, "No, I have to go out and get some fresh air. Old Third, don't mention this to me anymore, I'm f * cking preparing to give up on eggs and crabs for the rest of my life. Oh right, there's also the salmon."

Indeed, Wei Wuji's method was effective. Even though he had only used five or six Gu, he had managed to control the human face ulcer and had not continued to grow. After a day, the ulcers had obviously started to shrink, and the facial features of the face above them had become blurred.

Yao Ning called for the little girl to boil some rice porridge for her every day. At the most, she would put some vegetables inside, afraid that if the nutrition she absorbed was too good, the poison would erupt again.

Ashley was still weak and everyone was afraid that she wouldn't be able to withstand the sea winds and waves, so they decided to wait until she began to recover before setting out. The ship continued to stay in the harbor for another four days.

Yao Yun flipped through the notes left by Old Hu. The records of Man-Faced Spider clearly stated that these kinds of Man-Faced Spider only lived in the Central Asian region, and their numbers were extremely rare. As for why the Man-Faced Spider had appeared on an island in the Indian Ocean and coincidentally bitten Ashley, both Yao Yun and Wei Wuji believed that this was definitely not a coincidence. Although there were ships and cargo from all over the world anchored here, it was unlikely that such a rare poisonous bug that lived in the inland area would coincidentally sail here with the ship. Especially when they went to find that fruit seller, they found that he had already disappeared. They asked around and found out that those vendors said they had never seen this fruit seller before, but he only stayed here for a few days before disappearing again.

Even after searching for a few days, he was still unable to find any clues. Seeing that Ashley's body was recovering very quickly, they couldn't stay here for too long, so they could only put this matter down and prepare to set sail.

During the past few days of travel, Yao Yun had also heard of a strange matter. There were a lot of stray cats on the island. According to the sailors, these cats were brought here from ships that had passed by for a long time. Some of them were owned by sailors, while some of them didn't know how to get on the ship. Actually, most of the people on this island were wild dogs. Their origins were similar to those of the cats, and they were also outsiders.

As this island was an important transit point on the route, it was inevitable that the boats would bring some rats here. The island had once caused a lot of trouble with rats, but ever since there had been a lot of wild cats and dogs, those rats had been killed by them.

Therefore, the local people liked these wild dogs very much. Not only would they not harm them, they would sometimes feed them food, causing these wild cats and wild dogs to reproduce rather quickly.

At first, they thought that someone had hunted them down, but then they heard that a buyer and the people on the island had bought a large number of wild dogs. As for what he was going to do with the dogs, no one knew, nor did anyone know where he had taken them, and in short, there were almost no wild dogs to be seen in the city or anywhere else on the island.

He didn't know whether or not this Shandong Dog King had been found by Li Yisheng and killed. Although he didn't have a good relationship with Zhang Tie Yu, Yao Ning felt that this person was fated to be with her. It was a kind of familiar feeling, so she was still worried for him from time to time. However, he didn't know whether he was still alive or not. He could only hope that he would suddenly appear like before.

On the day that Yao Ling and the rest were about to leave the pier, Chen Keshen wanted to make another trip to the city to make his last mass purchase. Ashley had recovered her energy, and after being cooped up on the boat for several days, she wanted to go out and take a walk as well.

Because they bought so many goods, the boss lent them a delivery truck and two waiters. On the way back to the dock, he accidentally hit someone and killed them.

A car accident was not a big deal, but there was a human life at the end of it. This was going to be troublesome. In an island like this overseas island, even if it was just a life, it could still be settled with money. Besides, he did not commit murder, it was just a car accident. At most, he could just compensate the families of the victims with a large sum of money.

However, they were also troubled that the old man who had been killed had no family.

One of the onlookers said that the old man was a vagabond who raised monkeys to earn money by playing monkey.

At this moment, the monkey-wielding man was lying dead on the ground with blood flowing out. On his body was indeed a small monkey. The little monkey didn't seem to be injured, but it seemed to understand that its master was dead. It was blinking its big watery eyes and lying on its master's corpse as if it was in tears.

There were no police here. The one in charge of maintaining law and order usually was a local minister and his militia, which were similar to gangs. Jensa explained the situation to the militia and offered compensation. When these people heard about the death of a single homeless person, they immediately knew that the money would naturally fall into their pockets when they came to the road of wealth, so they gave them some compensation and prepared to let them go.

Ashley thought that the monkey was too pitiful. After his owner died and he didn't know if he could survive on the island, he felt sorry for the monkey and wanted to bring it back to the ship to be domesticated.

His brother had been killed by the monkey. He did not have a good impression of this creature, but he could not refuse Ashley's suggestion. He could only helplessly say that he had no objections.

Back on the Indra, Yao was also surprised to see them bring back a monkey. However, after listening to Ashley explain the cause of the matter and seeing that there was nothing abnormal with the monkey, he did not take it to heart. After all, this ship was stinky, had a lot of animals, so adding another monkey was not a big deal.

After Ashley's encounter, everyone seemed to have a little more confidence in Mae's divination, and the future danger he was measuring seemed to have come true this time.

Under Mae's meditative guidance, the Indra turned southeast, and Mae said he had a hunch the island might soon appear.

Since the journey was boring, Yao Ling went fishing by the sea with Chen Sanxian to pass the time. Captain Tempo said that it was easy to get into trouble due to high winds and high waves. However, there were also many wondrous sights here.

There were seals and other sea beasts on some of the nearby islands and rocks. There were also many sharks and dolphins. It was even said that there would be a small group of orcas appearing here.

However, the most mysterious legend was the White Demon. That was a huge white beast that would take advantage of high winds and waves to attack the ships that passed by, causing many people to die in the past few decades.

This White Demon was very cunning, moreover, after capsizing the boat, he had to stay in the vicinity and wait. When he encountered those who had escaped, he would chase them down and ensure that there were no survivors. However, in the end, there were people who had seen its appearance. Some were white whales, and some were unknown sea monsters. As for what it was, it was unclear.

After all, nine out of ten of these legends were made of water, just like the big octopus that killed Mae's grandson on the island of Burry. Didn't it also become a Shark Monster by the islanders? Perhaps it was because the sea was not in a good condition, that the sailors on board of shipwrecked ships would often be attacked by sharks or something in the water, and those witnesses or those who managed to escape with their lives would be spread.

Ashley made tea for everyone and carried it to the dining hall. He thanked Wei Wuji for saving their lives and could not help but ask him a crucial question: "Will those battling crabs stay in my body?"

Wuji smiled as he comforted her, telling her that the Gu worms had been taken back after they had eaten her sore and would not enter her body to harm her. Only then did Ashley feel at ease.

Suddenly, the sailors gathered on the deck and looked into the sea. As if they had discovered something, the captain of the ship came in and beckoned them out. Not far ahead of the Indra floated the corpse of a huge whale.
