9932. Chapter 9932: The Strange Cauldron Falling From the Sky 3
Ma Fu was afraid that something might happen, so he quickly said: "Don't let them get close." For a while, everyone used their methods to drive away all the snakes and insects on the ground. However, those snakes and insects are not afraid of everyone's methods at all.
One group died, and another group followed closely, one after another, with no intention of stopping. After a while, the corpses of insect beasts were piled around the tent. Yao Wang glanced around and frowned when he saw the snakes and insects still struggling to approach the tent. At that moment, he took out a small paper bag from his arms, walked to the tent, and poured the red powder in the bag on the ground.
When the red powder surrounded the tent, the surrounding insect beasts immediately stopped advancing and did not dare to approach any further. Guo Changming exhaled and said: "There is such a good thing, why don't you use it sooner."
The Medicine King did not answer his words, but said: "My medicine powder won't last long, you should hurry up and think of a way to get rid of these insects and beasts."
Although his medicinal powder temporarily stopped the insect beasts, the insect beasts still surrounded the tent, keeping a distance of less than ten meters. Once the efficacy of the medicinal powder wears off, those insect beasts will definitely continue to attack.
Ma Fu said: "I have a way." As he said that, he stretched out his figure and flew into the air. Then, I saw him waving his big hand, and sharp rays of light fell from the sky and landed on the ground. Suddenly, four deep ditches were carved into the land around the tent, connecting them to each other, making the tent independent in the center. Immediately afterwards, he lit flames in each of the four ditches. The raging flames burned, forcing the insect beasts back again. With the protection of these flames, as long as those insect beasts approach the tent, they will fall into the ditch and be engulfed in flames.
"You still have a way." Guo Changming said with a smile.
"Okay, that's it," Ma Fu said, "I'll arrange for a few people to be responsible for keeping watch. Let's go rest first and come back tomorrow to check on the situation."
After everyone left, the insect beasts all over the mountain began to gradually recede.
In the middle of the night, the night sky that was originally full of stars and moon suddenly turned into dark clouds and heavy rain. Under the pouring of rain, the mud began to become soft. At this time, in the spacious tent, the soft earth moved slightly. Not long after, a long snake emerged from the ground. After the long snake, countless insect beasts emerged from the ground and swarmed towards the cauldron.
At this moment, the guards arranged by Ma Fu were outside the tent, and no one noticed what was going on in the tent. Along the cauldron, dozens of long snakes climbed to the top and wrapped their bodies around the top of the cauldron. The weight of this cauldron is so heavy that even if Ma Fu and Guo Changming join forces, they cannot move it. However, although the weight of the cauldron is terrifying, the top cover is relatively light. Under the movements of those long snakes, the top cover moved little by little.
Since the cauldron furnace was placed at an angle, the long snakes didn't spend much effort. They just pulled out the top cover a little, and the top cover naturally fell off the cauldron furnace. Although the top cover fell, countless insect beasts began to crawl into the cauldron crazily. For a moment, a bright red light surged out from the cauldron and spread instantly.
Ma Fu, who was resting in a tent not far away, felt the strange changes outside and rushed out to look at the source of the red light. Suddenly, his expression changed and he hurried over. At this moment, Guo Changming and Yao Wang arrived one after another.
