Chapter 77

y hand at all, so the method my head came up with was "priming." I used the steel shaft of a whirlwind shovel as a lever and inserted it, utilizing the principle of leverage, then moved it little by l...He pulled down his pants, revealing one side of his thigh.

Both Red Sister and I were scared.

I never expected this.

I have a scratch on the outer side of my thigh, near the pocket area. It's about the size of a fingernail!

The wound edges are everted, purplish-red in color, and there is some pus present.

The key is, I didn't feel any pain at all!

With a gentle touch, there was no feeling at all.

As soon as I pressed on the wound on my thigh, some liquid oozed out.

At the same time, even though Sister Hong didn't speak, I could hear a voice.

Yun Feng, where are you I'm here.

This was the night of the fog, all I heard.

Just look at Hong Jie's expression, you can tell that this voice is only audible to me. She can't hear it.

"Wait! Yunfeng, don't move!" Hongjie shouted, her eyes wide with fear, staring intently at my wound.

I saw, on the inside of my thigh, a visible skin moving constantly. Something was clearly wriggling underneath!

"Don't move! Hold still!" Hongjie drew out her dagger directly.

My own thighs are like this, I'm scared.

I bit down on my shirt, staring in terror at everything.

The dagger was very sharp. Hong Jie gritted her teeth and aimed at the slightly twitching spot on my thigh.

He went straight for the kill.

A knife cut into flesh and blood immediately welled up. I clenched my teeth, thinking it would be very painful.

I didn't feel any pain, just a tingling numbness.

After cutting away the flesh, it was clear to see.

There is a yellowish-brown insect inside.

That was the legless cricket I put in my pocket out of curiosity before.

Hong Jie was careful, using the tip of her knife to carefully dig the insect out.

The cicada dies after it emerges.

As soon as the insect died, I started to feel pain, at the wound on the outer side of my thigh. It was a piercing kind of pain.

Red Sister used a dagger to cut open her own clothes, and used a strip of cloth to help me stop the bleeding.

She wiped the sweat from her brow and took a deep breath. "Okay, it should be alright now."

Strangely enough, once the worm was removed, I stopped hearing her voice and all those hallucinations disappeared. Everything went back to normal.

Hong Jie looked at the dead insect on the ground, frowned and said: "Such a strange thing, I didn't think of it before, but now I suddenly thought of something, a kind of legendary creature called an answering insect.

">

Red Sister spent more than ten minutes telling me everything she could think of.

After hearing this, I also thought it was unbelievable.

This kind of insect has been recorded many times in ancient books. At first, the ancients were not well-informed and classified this disease as one of the strange and miscellaneous diseases. It was once mentioned in "Compendium of Materia Medica".

"Reading the medicinal herbs, stopping thunder pills, insect speech stops."

How exactly did Li Shizhen treat the illness, and how have later generations interpreted his methods

At that time, Li Shizhen showed the materia medica list to a patient with a strange illness. Li Shizhen asked the patient to read the names of the herbs aloud. At first, the patient was fine. However, when he read the name "Lei Wan" (雷丸), he began to tremble, sweat profusely, and looked terrified.

Later, Li Shizhen used Lei Wan (a type of Chinese medicine) as a treatment. After decocting it and having him drink it, the strange illness was cured the next day.

This is a saying that has been passed down through the ages.

This bug, discovered in the hidden garden, had me thinking back on all the events leading up to it.

Chen Jian-sheng has been trapped here for some time. Before we arrived, he had entered several times.

Is it possible that he learned to speak because, like me, a strange creature burrowed into his flesh

Perhaps because of the long time, Chen Jian-sheng's condition was more severe than mine. So before an attack, his eyes would be vacant and he would seem dazed.

And because I discovered it early, when it attacked, I still had my own consciousness.

Chen Jian-sheng didn't encounter anyone at first, so this thing has been lurking all along.

Thinking about it this way, it seems to make sense.

This is not a good thing. Even though we dealt with it quickly, it will definitely have an impact on our upcoming project to go down the drain.

Things are getting harder.

Here everything is imbued with eeriness. you sent by Lao Jin!" The man behind me grew more and more agitated. A sharp pain pierced my skin as a blade's tip dug in.I feel like if I say the wrong thing, that knife will kill me."Don't be impul...
