After a flash marriage, the abstinent president dotes on his wife
Chapter 147: Powder Failure
On the way up the mountain, Qi Anran was curious about everything around her, as if she had discovered a new world. Her laughter echoed among the mountains.
Jiang Shiyi followed behind her, looking at Qi Anran's innocent smile, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: She is indeed the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, so naive.
"what."
Jiang Shiyi thought something had happened to Qi Anran and ran over immediately.
However, when he saw Qi Anran holding a bug in a branch and suddenly placing it in front of him, he was frightened and collapsed to the ground.
Qi Anran looked at Jiang Shiyi's reaction and laughed: "I asked you to scare me about how scary the mountain is, but you ended up getting scared yourself."
Jiang Shiyi looked at Qi Anran in disbelief. This little girl is not afraid of insects? Isn't it said that girls are afraid of insects? However, this also made him feel less worried.
Originally he was worried that Qi Anran would scream out of fear, but now it seems that he can't be fooled by her delicate appearance.
The two continued to move forward and soon arrived at a cave.
There are a lot of spiders living here, which are the food for the master chef's pets. Jiang Shiyi sprinkled a circle of medicinal powder around the cave, and then took out the herbs he had prepared in advance.
The fragrance of these herbs quickly attracted snakes, insects, rats and ants around. In order to prevent them from approaching, he sprinkled a circle of powder in advance. Even if they were attracted by the smell, they would not dare to come forward because of the powder.
Qi Anran watched Jiang Shiyi's operation curiously from the side, with many questions in his mind: Can just these few herbs lure all the spiders out of the cave?
Before long, the aroma of the herbs dissipated, and sparse sounds could be heard coming from the cave.
Soon after, spiders crawled out of the cave one after another, their colorful bodies pouring out towards the cave entrance.
Even though Qi Anran was not afraid of insects, he still felt some physical discomfort when he saw this scene.
Seeing this, Jiang Shiyi immediately pulled Qi Anran behind him, and then began to catch all the spiders with tools. After catching a certain number, he sprinkled a few packets of medicine powder, and the spiders that had originally rushed out of the cave immediately retreated one after another.
Looking at the spiders he caught, Jiang Shiyi judged that they were enough for the chef's little cuties to eat for a few days.
He stood up and was about to leave, but when he turned to look at Qi Anran, he found a brightly colored snake on her feet, slowly crawling up her legs.
Jiang Shiyi quickly grabbed the snake's vital point and killed it.
Qi Anran was startled by Jiang Shiyi's sudden action. When she saw the dead snake on the ground, she realized the danger. She looked at the colorful patterned snake and knew it must be highly poisonous.
Fortunately, she listened to Jiang Shiyi and wore long sleeves and long pants. If the snake had crawled directly onto her skin, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Although Qi Anran is not afraid of insects, she is more afraid of snakes. She finds it difficult to accept the slippery and cold touch of snakes.
Jiang Shiyi saw her reaction and comforted her: "It's okay, it's been killed. Let's go down the mountain quickly."
The insects and snakes that were originally attracted by the scent of the herbs were afraid to approach them because of the insect repellent powder sprinkled around. However, the two found that several brightly patterned snakes ignored the presence of the powder and directly stepped over and slowly crawled towards them.
Jiang Shiyi's expression immediately became solemn.
It had only been a short time since these poisons appeared, but they had already developed a certain resistance to the powders he had developed.
Seeing several more poisonous snakes passing by the powder and crawling towards them quickly, Jiang Shiyi immediately took out a bag of corrosive powder, then pulled Qi Anran and ran forward quickly.
I don’t know if it was because of the effect of the powder or because the two men were running so fast, but after running about a few hundred meters, they finally got rid of the poisonous snakes.
Qi Anran was panting and holding onto the wall, waving her hands repeatedly to indicate that she couldn't run anymore.
Jiang Shiyi looked back and made sure that the snake did not follow him, then he relaxed his vigilance a little.
"Senior Brother Jiang, didn't you sprinkle the medicine powder? Why do they still dare to come over?" Qi Anran asked, panting.
Jiang Shiyi pondered for a moment and replied, "They must have developed resistance to my powder, so they are not afraid. It seems that I need to go back and study it again to increase the efficacy of the medicine."
"Are you okay? It's getting late. We must leave as soon as possible. The forest is more dangerous at night."
When Jiang Shiyi turned around and looked at Qi Anran, his expression turned serious.
"Brother Jiang, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"
Qi Anran was still trying to calm her breathing. When she looked up and saw Jiang Shiyi's tense face, her uneasiness instantly increased.
Jiang Shiyi did not answer, but quickly pulled Qi Anran to his side, then took out a handful of herbs from his arms, lit them and threw them under a nearby tree. In an instant, the fire illuminated the surrounding darkness and the densely packed insects on the tree trunk.
"What is this?" Qi Anran looked in horror at the little bugs pouring out of the tree trunk like a tide, her voice trembling so much that it was almost inaudible.
"This is a tick." Jiang Shiyi said in a deep voice, "This is a tropical area, and this kind of insect is very common. They feed on blood, and once they get into human skin, they will keep drilling in and suck blood."
Jiang Shiyi took a deep breath and continued, "I once saw a python being sucked dry of blood by tens of thousands of ticks. Although these insects are small, their large numbers are enough to be fatal."
Hearing this, Qi Anran felt her scalp tingling and a chill rising from the bottom of her heart. She had never thought that such a terrifying creature could be hidden in this seemingly peaceful forest.
"We have to leave quickly." Jiang Shiyi said, grabbed Qi Anran's hand and walked down the mountain.
