"Roar!"
Gu Shi opened his mouth and spewed out a breath of black mist towards the row of people in front of him.
The black mist carried a heavy stench, and the figure originally at the front row bent over and vomited crazily on the spot, feeling a dizzying whirl at the sa ti.
Li Ying's heart tightened, and she quickly ran over, pulling Gong Kaishan out from the front, asking, "How are you?"
"I'm not... ugh!" Gong Kaishan barely uttered two words before he couldn't help but vomit again.
On the other side, Xiao Feng also pulled Lone Wolf out, directly sending him in front of Sun Shijie.
After checking Lone Wolf's pulse, Sun Shijie squatted down, opened his dicine box, took out Silver Needle, and placed two needles on Lone Wolf's head, then gave him an Antitoxic Pill to swallow.
After the operation, Lone Wolf stopped vomiting continuously, leaned against the box, trying to stand up several tis but failed to do so.
Xiao Feng patted his shoulder, saying, "Just rest here well, leave the rest to us."
Sun Shijie shouted loudly, "Bring everyone showing vomiting symptoms to !"
Upon hearing this, Li Ying hurriedly assisted Gong Kaishan over.
"Are they poisoned?" Xiao Feng asked.
While administering needles to Gong Kaishan, Sun Shijie replied, "Not poisoned, just a common physiological reaction, a severe taste stimulation, continuous vomiting is normal."
Xiao Feng opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing, but caught sight of Du Qingyue quietly approaching the crowd from the corner of his eyes.
"Didn't I tell you to stay put?" Xiao Feng quickly stepped forward and grabbed her arm.
Du Qingyue replied flatly, "It's fine to treat differently at usual tis, but at such a dangerous mont, if you give special attention again, what would others think?"
"What can they think?" Xiao Feng raised an eyebrow: "Anyone has an opinion, let them tell face to face."
"Even if they don't say it, they'll have opinions in their hearts, besides, retreating at a critical mont makes it hard for to get along with them later."
Du Qingyue explained calmly, pulling Xiao Feng's hand away and rushing into the crowd.
Xiao Feng didn't stop her further; with Lao Ha around, he doesn't worry much about Du Qingyue's safety.
Sure enough, Lao Ha soon noticed Du Qingyue in the crowd.
He imdiately shouted, "Boss lady is in, get so people over to protect her!"
Thus, a circle of people gathered around Du Qingyue.
Outside the circle, there were cries of fighting and killing, but inside it was quiet, as if in two different worlds.
Du Qingyue felt helpless about this but couldn't reprimand anything, having to patiently wait for an opportunity.
A quarter of an hour later...
Originally more than seventy people, the casualties had reached twenty-four.
It didn't seem a lot, but looking at the situation with Gu Shi, consuming this way might truly result in mutual destruction.
Roaming around the periphery and finding opportunities to throw cold strikes, Pang Tong seed to have noticed this point, shouting loudly, "Split up and continue looking for the Soul-Sealing Nail!"
Predictably, no one paid him any attention.
Pang Tong gritted his teeth in frustration, dashed out of the crowd, ran to Xiao Feng, and said solemnly, "This way of fighting is not the solution, we must find the seventh Soul-Sealing Nail, or we can't completely destroy Gu Shi."
Xiao Feng shook his head: "Worthless, finding it is useless, the seventh one isn't here."
"Not here?" Pang Tong was stunned, then anxiously said, "At this point, can't we be honest with each other?"
Briefly pondering, Xiao Feng spoke, "The seventh Soul-Sealing Nail is in Gu Shi's possession; it probably isn't carried on him.
Don't bother about how I know, just be clear that what I'm saying is true."
"Does that an, to destroy Gu Shi, we first need to... ask him where the seventh Soul-Sealing Nail is?"
Pang Tong asked, feeling indescribably absurd himself.
It's like wanting to kill soone while asking them to find the knife for you, such logic seed utterly ridiculous.
After a long silence, Xiao Feng asked, "How many Soul-Sealing Nails are embedded?"
"Three." Pang Tong said with an ugly face.
Xiao Feng exhaled and said, "Then stop thinking about anything else, nail all six existing Soul-Sealing Nails into Gu Shi's body, make him at on the chopping board first.
As for the killing 'knife,' we can take our ti to find."
"It seems it's the only way now." Pang Tong nodded, then turned his words: "Before continuing to fight, I need a guarantee."
"What guarantee?"
"I need your assurance that you won't take advantage of the opportunity to deal with ."
"Sure!" Xiao Feng readily agreed with a nod: "I promise not to deal with you."
Pang Tong chuckled, "Just verbal assurance isn't enough."
"Then what do you an?" Xiao Feng squinted and asked.
"I have poison here; if you swallow it, I'll naturally believe your word."
As he spoke, Pang Tong pulled out a square wooden box from his robe.
The box opened, revealing a pure white pill, looking crystal clear, visually unlike a poison at all.
"You want to swallow it?" Xiao Feng's lips curled, his smile looked mocking.
Pang Tong solemnly said, "I understand, you might think I'm dispensable at this mont, but against Gu Shi, I'm more experienced than you.
Trust !
You'll still find useful later."
After pausing, Pang Tong continued, "Besides, I don't want you to eat it, I want her to."
Xiao Feng frowned slightly, following Pang Tong's pointing direction, the person he saw was... Hua Ling.
In Pang Tong's view, Hua Ling and Xiao Feng's relationship was definitely unusual.
This could be seen from what happened in the hospital ward during their first eting.
Moreover, Xiao Feng is cunning; even if he seems to swallow it under supervision, he might not actually eat it.
Hua Ling is a bit naive, without many bad intentions.
"So?" Pang Tong asked: "Can you agree to my condition?"
Xiao Feng stifled the urge to laugh, coughed twice, "Why not let eat it then?"
"No!" Pang Tong firmly stated: "I want her to eat!"
Xiao Feng furrowed his brows, appearing to weigh the pros and cons.
Pang Tong did not rush, thinking this was normal.
After a long while, Xiao Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, just as you said."
After saying that, he took the pill from the box and walked toward Hua Ling.
Pang Tong's eyes stayed locked on the pill, afraid Xiao Feng might swap it.
Though unlikely, caution couldn't be discarded.
One after the other, they walked in front of Hua Ling, before they could speak, Hua Ling yelled at Pang Tong, "What did you an by pointing at just now?"
Pang Tong remained silent, his eyes still fixed on Xiao Feng's hand.
No choice, Xiao Feng explained for Pang Tong, "He ant to complint your beauty; he just pointed at you and said you look like a little fairy."
At the ti, Hua Ling was displeased, frowned, "What's with 'look like'? I am the little fairy, okay?"
"Yes, yes." Xiao Feng followed her words: "Little fairy, do you like eating candy?"
