As soon as Su Yue mentioned the anthelmintic powder, everyone reacted. Yes, why didn’t they think that flies are also insects? The anthelmintic powder should be effective against mutant flies.

Most people were upset and said they didn't bring it with them. As for why they were upset, it was because Dr. Wu had told them to bring it with them when they go out just in case.

But the men always thought that the weather was so cold that there shouldn’t be many bugs, so they didn’t take it seriously.

Among the dozen people, except Su Yue, only Liu Shan and his son and Liu Qiang and his son brought anthelmintics. The reason why these people brought them was that they were forced to do so by their wives and mothers.

There were only a few packets of medicine powder in Su Yue's space, and she took them all out, but even so, the medicine powder was obviously not enough.

Finally, she thought of a way. She poured all the medicinal powder into a bamboo tube, took the space water that Honeysuckle brought with her and poured some into the bamboo tube, and stirred the medicinal powder into a paste.

Then everyone was asked to smear some of this powder on the prepared torches. The torches were originally used to smoke white frogs, but now the white frogs have turned into meat paste. They thought the torches would be useless, but they didn't expect that they would have the opportunity to appear again.

When Su Yue was planning to leave, she lit torches in front and behind the team. The pungent smell of the medicine would probably keep the mutant flies away.

Everyone acted quickly according to Su Yue's arrangement. After the torches were smeared with the powder paste, a pungent smell was emitted.

Liu Daxi looked at the torch in his hand and thought that it would not be of much use, but he still prayed silently that this method would work.

"Is everyone ready? Let's go!" Su Yue whispered.

Everyone nodded, everyone looked nervous and tightly gripped the bows, crossbows and torches in their hands.

They carefully poked their heads out from their hiding places and observed the movements of the mutant flies. The flies were still busy on the corpses, seemingly unaware of the impending crisis.

After Su Yue saw that everything was ready, she said, "We can go now. Liu Daxi will light the torch and walk in front and behind. Ren Dong and I will walk behind."

Song Mingtao felt that this was not possible. How could he let two girls walk at the end of the team? Even if these two girls together were more useful than a dozen men, he still couldn't do that.

"Girl, it's better for you to walk in the middle of the team. If something goes wrong, everyone can protect you."

Su Yue knew in her heart that Song Mingtao was worried about her and Ren Dong, but she still said with some impatience, "Oh, Uncle Song, I won't do this if I'm not sure, just listen to my arrangements."

The main thing is that if she walks in the middle, if something goes wrong, she can't put all these people into the space in front of the people behind her.

Seeing this, Song Mingtao had no choice but to look at Rendong, "Rendong, you must take good care of the girl."

Rendong nodded and waved her hand, meaning that she understood and asked Song Mingtao to leave quickly so that the team could set off. Listening to the ubiquitous buzzing sound, she had goose bumps all over her body.

Liu Daxi was already walking in a direction away from the flies. The torches in front and behind the team were burning, and the smoke and smell of medicine filled the air.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. The mutant flies did not seem to react to their actions. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and unconsciously quickened their pace.

Song Da, who was walking in front of the team, turned his head to look at the back of the team, then turned back and said with admiration: "Who says women are inferior to men? I think our girls are very capable. They can think of a way to save us from the water and fire."

Liu Daxi's eyes were full of approval, "The girl is indeed amazing. She is not an ordinary woman. It can only be said that she is worthy of being born in an official family. Her brains are not comparable to those of us peasants."

Liu Shan also echoed after hearing this: "It's a pity that the girl is a girl. If she were a boy, she might be able to pass the exam easily. Oh, no, it should be the top scholar."

Everyone felt relieved that the mutant fly did not catch up with them, and they were in the mood to chat for a while.

What they didn’t know was that it wasn’t that even one or two mutant flies didn’t notice their team.

This was because the mutant flies were about to move forward, but the pungent smell of medicine that came with the cold wind made them stop flapping their wings and continue to lower their heads to gnaw on the rotten meat.

As they hurried along, the pungent smell of medicine always surrounded them, like an invisible protective barrier.

However, as time went on, the medicinal paste on the torch gradually decreased during burning, and the medicinal smell began to fade.

Fortunately, they were not far from the tower. Liu Daxi thought about it and decided that it would be better to be safe, so he changed the torch, lit it, and continued moving forward.

Everyone returned to the tower, and the women who had been informed by Nanny Yang had already prepared hot water and food to welcome Su Yue and the man.

Li Hui saw Song Mingtao walking towards her and quickly stepped back. "Hey, dad, stop! Don't get too close to me. You stink so badly. I knew it would be like this. The hot water is already ready. Go and take a shower."

Ye Mei also called out to her husband and son at this time, "Hey, where are you two going? Don't go to the iron room. You look like you are soaked in salt water. Go wash yourself."

The men saw that their mothers and wives did not receive them as warmly as last time, but looked disgusted. They looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly and went to wash up.

Su Yue and Ren Dong had already been taken to their room by Nanny Yang. They saw a brazier in the washroom and the bathtub was already filled with hot water with dried jasmine petals floating in it.

As soon as Su Yue entered the bathtub, she hummed in comfort. Rendong originally wanted to rub Su Yue's back, but was pushed out by Nanny Yang.

"No need for you, I'll do it. You can go wash up too. I've prepared some hot water for you."

After washing up, everyone gathered in the blacksmith's room. The men ate and drank while telling their families about what had happened. The women's hearts were also up and down as they listened to the story.

After the battle with giant snakes, white frogs and mutant flies, they felt that there would definitely be more dangerous existences in the future, but they were also well aware of their own shortcomings.

The next day, the men in the tower gathered together to discuss, and then went to Su Yue to tell her their ideas.

The idea is that they must not sit and wait for death. In order to train themselves and eliminate the zombies, they want to go out together to eliminate the zombies in the future.

He also said that he didn't want to rely on Su Yue, a weak woman, for help whenever he encountered any problems, which would make these grown men feel quite cowardly.

Su Yue raised her eyebrows when she heard this but did not object. Instead, she was very pleased that they would have such an idea.

Only by training ourselves regularly can we be able to face more brutal natural disasters that may occur next.
