225 Handling It Alone
With his last bit of consciousness, the thick-browed man gritted his teeth and said, “No, you’re not allowed-”
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes closed. It was unknown if he was dead or unconscious.
Chi Tu held the other bottles in his hand and looked at the others.
“Who should we test next?”
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at Chi Tu.
Devil! He was simply a devil!
He looked like a human, but why was his heart so black?!
Finally, someone who looked like he was scared out of his wits said with a trembling voice, “I… I’ll talk. Yellow color. The one with the yellow lid is the antidote…”
He had a pair of slender eyes. At this moment, they were narrowed into slits because of fear.
Chi Tu raised his eyebrows. “Oh, then which ones are poison?”
Slender eyes: “The ones with blue dots at the mouth of the bottle.”
Chi Tu opened the bottle with the blue dots and walked to the person’s side. Under the especially terrified gaze of his slender eyes, Chi Tu pinched the chin of the person beside him and stuffed the bottle into the person’s mouth. Then, he patted the back of the person’s neck.
After that person swallowed it, they watched coldly as he spat out the bottle.
Before long, that person’s body began to twitch, and the corners of his mouth turned purple.
It was the same situation as the children.
Chi Tu opened the yellow bottle. The twitching person could not wait and swallowed the powder that was scattered around his mouth.
After a while, the person stopped twitching.
“You’re very good. You didn’t lie to me.” Chi Tu patted his slender shoulders, his eyes filled with relief.
After finding the antidote, Chi Tu hurriedly distributed it to the children.
Only the children with symptoms of poisoning would eat it. As for Little Ah Yu and the others, even though Little Ah Yu looked on eagerly, Chi Tu still did not give it to them.
“Ah Yu, this is not candy. It can’t be eaten.”
Little Ah Yu naturally did not see the scene of the Swimming Dragon Clan being abused.
Chi Ding and the others originally thought that the Swimming Dragon Clan had already been beaten into submission by them. At the very least, the effect of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys was very obvious.
However, the slender eyed man that had just been praised by Chi Tu moved its fingertips slightly and something slipped from its sleeve when Chi Tu and the others went to save the children.
When the people beside him saw this, they immediately covered for him.
In just a few breaths, rustling sounds came from around.
“Ah, snakes! So many snakes!” A swarm of snakes crawled out of the grass.
Some of them were big, some were small, their colors were different, and their breeds were different. There were also many venomous snakes mixed in.
The children were scared silly again and curled up into a ball.
The snakes surrounded them.
Chi Ding looked at the Swimming Dragon Clan’s people. “You actually dare to play tricks!”
Chi She swung the wooden stick in its hand into a whip and immediately wanted to kill those snakes.
Unexpectedly, the eyes of the people who were still afraid previously were filled with joy.
“This area is filled with venomous snakes. Even if you receive just one bite, even medicine can’t save you. We don’t even have the antidote!” The slender eyed man changed from his previous submissive appearance and struggled to stand up. “If you don’t want those children to be bitten, let us go immediately!”
As long as there was life, there was hope. The humiliation they’d suffered today would definitely be returned a hundredfold in the future!
When they returned to the Swimming Dragon Clan, they would definitely send out the experts of the clan and bring a Giant Python over to kill them!
These people in front of him were all going to die!
Before he could finish speaking, he saw that the venomous snakes were still slithering towards the children, especially the little girl.
What happened?
He had yet to give the order!
These venomous snakes should not take the initiative to attack people.
The slender eyed man could already tell that the person this group of people wanted to protect the most was that little girl.
If they hurt the little girl, the negotiation today would probably not work.
The fingertips of the slender eyed man moved slightly, wanting to control the venomous snakes to leave.
However, the venomous snakes crawled faster and faster and quickly arrived in front of Little Ah Yu.
All of them rushed to surround her.
Chi She’s whip was raised high.
“Uncle She, show mercy!” Wang Wulang hurriedly shouted.
Chi She’s hand froze.
In the next moment, a terrifying scene happened.
The venomous snakes circled Little Ah Yu and even twisted their bodies. One moment, they twisted into a circle, and the next moment, they stood up like a stick. The next moment, they wrapped around each other and turned into dough twists.
It was as if they were performing for her.
Little Ah Yu was originally very afraid and nervous, but when she saw these snakes performing for her, she immediately smiled.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
The snakes could not hear Little Ah Yu’s words, but it did not stop them from getting close to her.
Under the little lamb’s “transmission”, the animals on the nearby mountaintop did not have any ill feelings towards Little Ah Yu.
Even the mosquitoes could not bear to bite her, let alone the snakes.
Little Ah Yu was still a little afraid of snakes, but she knew that these snakes were all good and would not hurt them.
Just like how she protected them back then.
Therefore, Little Ah Yu hid the fear in her heart and smiled widely at these snakes.
Fortunately, these venomous snakes seemed to have realized that Little Ah Yu was a little afraid of them and did not get especially close. They remained a slight distance away.
Slender Eyes: “???”
Everyone’s jaws dropped.
There was actually someone in this world who knew more about snake control than them?!!
Was this really not a street sideshow snake performance team that had trained for several years?!!
The shock in Chi Tu and the others’ hearts was no less than that of the Swimming Dragon Clan, but they still had to display a very ordinary expression.
Since the venomous snakes could not threaten the other party, the Swimming Dragon Clan was at their wits’ end. All of them looked like they had lost their parents.
Chi Ding said to Ah Yu, “Ah Yu, it’s almost time to eat. Grandma will be looking for you later. Go back quickly.”
Little Ah Yu was still a little worried. “But what about those uncles?”
Also, the brothers and sisters who came with her seemed to be unable to walk anymore.
“We’ll send them home.” Chi Ding thought for a moment and said, “Uncle Tu and the others will send you back. We’ll split up and go back to eat together later.”
Wang Wulang felt that there was still a problem, but in his weak head, only the scene of Chi Tu fighting with the thick-browed man was left.
He could no longer think of anything else.
Chi Ding sent two people to escort the children back.
Actually, he only used his qinggong to travel for two miles and threw them at the entrance of the back mountain. Then, he stood there and raised his True Qi to shout at the village to pick them up.
Just like that, they sent the children back one by one.
In the end, when only Wang Wulang and Little Ah Yu were left, they originally wanted to carry Little Ah Yu on their backs, but they were pushed aside by the little lamb.
The little lamb carried Ah Yu and swung its hooves, running forward.
It forcefully cut a path out of the weeds.
The remaining awkward Wang Wulang looked at them expectantly.
One of the two walked out and flew back with Wang Wulang.
This person also made a trip to Old man Wang’s house and told them that they probably could not continue working today and there was no need for them to be paid today.
Old man Wang was still a little unhappy. The thunderstorm had yet to come, but it was about to come. These people actually decided to quit so suddenly in the end. What was going on?
However, before Old man Wang could complain, he was pulled into the house by Old Madam Wang.
“They already said that they don’t want the salary, so why are you still nagging there? You want to show how capable you are, right? Who wouldn’t have a headache and fever occasionally? Why are you so unreasonable in every matter? No wonder you couldn’t even hire a worker during the busy farming season!” Old Madam Wang scolded Old man Wang.
Old man Wang’s head was filled with question marks. “…” No matter how important the matter was, how could they not do what they had promised?!
The person in charge of reporting had an apologetic expression. “We’re indeed at fault this time. When this matter is over, we brothers will come over tomorrow and help the Wang Family with the harvest. We don’t need you to pay for the food and accommodation.”
Old man Wang immediately beamed. “What are you talking about? We’re all familiar with each other. Go busy yourself with your family matters. Don’t delay serious matters!”
The sons and daughters-in-law who had heard the entire thing: “…” Did their father learn this face-changing skill from their mother?
