Volume 4: It's Dark, Please Close Your Eyes Chapter 68: Did someone jump off the building?
An hour later...
Tang Zheng felt that he was still thinking too simply.
He might pick up a set of equipment to counter the Far North Demon Butterfly on the way, but that also depends on whether he has the ability to do so.
It seems that the truly top-grade casting in the Star Lord's casting notes looks beautiful in theory, but when it comes to actual execution, even the first step of material processing can go wrong!
"Huh..." Tang Zheng looked at the fish skin that he had failed to handle, shook his head and sighed.
"Okay, let me try." Hua Yingxiu watched Tang Zheng carefully for an hour before she said, "I think I can give it a try..."
Tang Zheng simply didn't keep anything to himself and showed Hua Yingxiu the diagrams on how to deal with the situation in Huangfu Xuanluo's notes.
Hua Yingxiu nodded and started to work.
She carried more than twenty knives on her body, ranging from as big as a machete to as small as a scalpel. When she took out these knives, Tang Zheng realized what professionalism meant.
Hua Yingxiu's star power spread across her knives. Her movements were not fast, but her star power could easily determine the different thicknesses of different parts of the inner membrane, which looked only as thick as plastic wrap.
She changed the knife skillfully, sometimes fast, sometimes slow...
Two hours passed, and the sky was getting light. She wiped her sweat and said, "Look, is this what it's going to be like?"
A piece of fish skin has been completely processed by her.
"Okay." Tang Zheng also understood what Hua Yingxiu did. The coordination between her star power flow and the blade was not the rigid star power control that Tang Zheng had practiced before the fight with Luo Fei. Instead, she released a little bit of star power activity appropriately, with a softer technique and more dexterity.
"Well, there are still a few pieces of skin here that can be used." Hua Yingxiu cut off the few complete pieces of skin that Tang Zheng missed.
"Okay, that's all. Let's prepare to trap the One-eyed Vermilion Bird." Tang Zheng stood up...
He had taken down everything he needed. Although he had not yet finished processing it, the remaining fish meat was of no use to him.
After a good sleep, when he wakes up, with his strength, he will be able to handle things much faster than Hua Yingxiu.
Otherwise, if Hua Yingxiu were to deal with it slowly, they would probably have to stay here for three to five days...
"Are we going to start trapping now?" Zheng Qian, who was dozing off to the side, was immediately awakened when he heard Tang Zheng's words.
"Well, let's trap the fish now, and then go to sleep after catching them." Tang Zheng took the lead in cutting the fish meat and threw a piece into the sky...
quack……
A one-eyed red bird reacted quickly and grabbed the fish in mid-air, then flew up for a long distance.
Then, Tang Zheng and his team began to set up camp.
The one-eyed Vermilion Bird hovering in the sky swooped down as if it saw the remains of a zebra that the lions had not finished eating.
Swish, swish, swish…
Tang Xiaotang immediately swung the thorn whip in her hand, and the star power dispersed into ten strands, directly pulling those one-eyed Vermilion Birds to the ground, and no matter how they struggled, they couldn't get up.
The other few were also caught one by one by Zheng Qian and his team.
Tang Zheng took out a few "Star-Breaking Ropes" from his storage bag, tied up a dozen one-eyed Vermilion Birds together, clapped his hands and said, "Well, that's all right now. We don't need to check the map anymore. Just follow them. We will definitely find the nearest tribe of the Far North Demon Butterflies."
"Yeah." Zheng Qian and the others nodded.
It was already early morning. Even if Tang Zheng wanted to update his equipment on the spot, he couldn't do it right away.
So, sleep.
The group set up camp on the spot, and Hua Yingxiu's two groups of "Yaoshan Soldier Ants" formed a circle around the tent...
The silent oasis in the desert became quieter and quieter, until only the even snoring sound remained.
They were physically and mentally exhausted after two battles last night. When they woke up, it was already the midday sun.
The temperature difference in the Far North is huge.
The temperature in one place may be minus 40 degrees Celsius, while in another place it may be above 50 degrees Celsius. The extremely harsh natural environment has also given rise to all kinds of strange monsters.
However, with Tang Zheng and his team's current strength, it would not pose any problem whether the temperature is minus 40 degrees or plus fifty degrees.
What's more, the oasis they are in now has a relatively good climate... well, only about ten degrees below zero, which is really "better"!
"Ah...ha..." Tang Zheng got up facing the midday sun and stretched lazily.
No matter what the temperature is, at least the sunshine is very good.
If it were in the game of the previous life, this would be the perfect weather for murder and arson.
Suddenly, there was a loud "bang".
Tang Xiaotang jumped in like a rabbit: "Master, Master, please go over and take a look. Zheng Qian can't persuade him!"
Tang Zheng blinked twice.
The way this girl talks is still so without context.
What do you mean go and have a look? Who can't Zheng Qian persuade?
"Can't persuade them? Someone wants to jump off the building?" Tang Zheng asked subconsciously.
"Where is the building!" Tang Xiaotang pulled him out of the tent.
"Wait a minute, pants, pants..."
"It's not like you're not wearing pants, hurry up."
"Where am I wearing pants?"
Tang Xiaotang pointed a finger at his shorts: "Isn't one pair enough? You are a five-star warrior after all!"
That’s right, for a five-star warrior, it really is like playing in temperatures of more than ten degrees below zero.
But doesn’t this girl know that pants, besides keeping warm, can also serve the purpose of covering one’s modesty?
Sure enough, just as Tang Zheng ran out with her, he heard Hua Yingxiu scream: "Ah..."
"It's okay, it's okay. I'll go see Zheng Qian..." Tang Zheng said.
"No, we went to see Jiang Wuyan." Tang Xiaotang corrected.
"Why did you become Jiang Wuyan again?"
"Zheng Qian is trying to persuade Jiang Wuyan..."
"Is it Jiang Wuyan who wants to jump off the building?"
"Where is the building!" Well, this confusing topic is back again.
…
Tang Zheng didn't plan to argue about this issue with Tang Xiaotang anymore. Anyway, the truth would be revealed when he met Jiang Wuyan.
Jiang Wuyan's tent was only a few steps away from his tent, and the two of them quickly reached it.
"Look, there seems to be something wrong with his wound." Tang Xiaotang pointed at Jiang Wuyan's face.
Jiang Wuyan was treating a dark blue wound on the right side of his cheek.
The edge of the wound was a light pink, just like the color of the pink blood stained by the One-eyed Suzaku.
It looks like it's really serious.
Zheng Qian advised: "Let me analyze it for you. You see, if the wound is poisonous, you still have time to go back to find Xiao Tanzhi. If the poison is deep, Xiao Tanzhi can't save him. At that time..."
"What's going on?" Tang Zheng walked in and interrupted Zheng Qian.
"It's okay. It must have been the ice arrows from the Arctic Swordfish yesterday. I didn't dodge one of them." Jiang Wuyan shook his head.
He didn't feel anything at first, but after Zheng Qian fiddled with it, he became a little nervous.
Not to mention Tang Xiaotang. When she saw Zheng Qian shouting and screaming, she came in and was shocked by the wound on his face.
"Why is it so serious?" Tang Zheng asked Jiang Wuyan, "Is the wound deep?"
"Not deep." Jiang Wuyan shook his head. "It was just a little scrape yesterday. I just checked the star veins and there's no problem. It will heal in two days at most."
Jiang Wuyan is not a person who tries to show off his strength. He speaks his mind, although the wound on his face looks like it has covered half of his face, which is a bit scary.
However, since the star veins are intact, there is nothing else to worry about for a four-star warrior.
Hua Yingxiu just walked in and saw the hideous wound on Jiang Wuyan's face. She cried out softly: "Uh, could it be..."
Jiang Wuyan nodded helplessly.
"When we were fighting the Arctic Swordfish yesterday, I was standing at the back ... and when Tang Zheng led the Arctic Swordfish to leap out of the water, the splashes blocked several ice arrows with extremely strong demonic power. It was different from the previous ice arrows... it attacked Tang Zheng, Zheng Qian, Xiaotang and Jiang Wuyan himself." Hua Yingxiu felt that there might be something wrong with that ice arrow yesterday.
But, at that time, it seemed that Jiang Wuyan dodged it?
Tang Zheng knew it as soon as he heard it. It turned out that the Arctic Swordfish's fake moves had real moves, and the real moves had fake moves. Jiang Wuyan, who was standing at the back of the entire team, saw that those ice arrows were different from the previous ones. They were real moves!
However, Tang Zheng and Tang Xiaotang, who had fought with Jiang Wuyan in the Academy Martial Arts Competition, knew that Jiang Wuyan's secret martial arts skill, the "Shengta", could only protect three people at most in an instant...
The Arctic Swordfish attacked four people at once!
"If there really is something wrong, I will definitely leave. I can be sure that everything is fine. There is no need to shout." Jiang Wuyan smiled and said, "I am not used to so many people watching me apply medicine."
"No, even if there is toxin, the wound will not worsen so quickly." Tang Zheng shook his head, still feeling something was wrong.
There were some inconspicuous blisters near the wound on Jiang Wuyan's face, and the wound showed signs of swelling.
Looking at the knuckles of his fingers, there are also some small red blisters.
A thought suddenly flashed through Tang Zheng's mind: "Does the wound feel numb or itchy?"
Jiang Wuyan was surprised for a moment, then nodded.
"Do you feel nausea, vomiting and diarrhea?" Tang Zheng asked again.
"Uh...yes." Jiang Wuyan was even more surprised.
Tang Zheng immediately looked at Zheng Qian helplessly...
Then, he took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket and threw it to Jiang Wuyan.
Zheng Qian's eyes widened: "Boss! What is this? Is it some kind of panacea that can cure all poisons..."
"He's allergic..." Tang Zheng was speechless.
Zheng Qian had been yelling so loudly in the early morning that even Xiaotang was confused and speechless. He really thought that something big had happened to Jiang Wuyan.
If something really happened to Jiang Wuyan, Tang Zheng would not be able to explain to the Zhaixing Sect!
Because, this winter vacation, there was absolutely no need for Jiang Wuyan to follow them and come to the Far North Wasteland to suffer this hardship.
Fortunately, it was just an allergy!
"Then let's continue to process the materials and try to make the scales before noon tomorrow, and then we'll set off!" Hua Yingxiu also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Tang Zhengdao.
"Yeah." Tang Zheng left some medicine for Jiang Wuyan's external injuries and followed Hua Yingxiu out.
