Chapter 744: Chapter 752 If I Have Not Returned

How else can it be explained that Xu Yan and his team had come here first, and Grandpa Xiao and his group had arrived right after? It was less about informing and more about hoping that Grandpa Xiao and his group could come and perform a rescue.

“I get it, there’s also a bunch of people over there from the archaeological team. They said they had two guides, which made their arrival here smooth.

I believe we should first regroup now. We can’t be dispersed, or it will be really troublesome. Those who are injured should take medicine, but it can only temporarily suppress the poison. To actually save them, we need to find Flame Grass.”

This was the only solution, but she knew the truth as well, and that largest insect probably knew it too. If she wanted to get in…

she would have to rely on herself.

“Flame Grass, isn’t that a thing of legends?”

Grandpa Xiao naturally also knew a bit, their family actually had some records about it. Flame Grass was located beneath Loulan City, suppressing some things.

“Yeah, that’s the nemesis of those insects. It’s also used to suppress the insects. However, the Queen of Loulan, for her own selfish desires, tried to control those insects to fulfill her ambition of dominating the world.”

Bai Zhi recalled that dream which became even clearer after she came here, except the rest was gone.

“Let’s go, we should hurry up and then I’m ready to sleep.”

Bai Zhi thought if she wanted to find Flame Grass, she must complete this dream. Otherwise, there wasn’t a starting point.

Xiao Qi was a bit embarrassed, as Xingxing spoke so straightforwardly. “Xingxing, the insects are the most terrifying during the day; let’s wait for the night, shall we?”

“No, I need to go back to sleep, prepare to dream.”

Bai Zhi shook her head, “We don’t have time anymore, lots of people in Nanning are waiting for me to save them. Even the people here are only temporarily suppressed; if we wait any longer, they could be in life-threatening danger.”

Grandpa Xiao also greatly agreed, and they had to take the initiative tonight.

“I see you brought Cinnabar Talisman Paper, right?”

In reality, the so-called talisman paper was just because cinnabar and black dog blood could suppress the insects, but Bai Zhi still believed in science.

“Right, we found that cinnabar and black dog blood can slightly counteract them, but the effect is very weak, that’s why they continually try to break through.”

Grandpa Xiao immediately nodded; many things couldn’t be directly explained, it was good enough that they understood internally.

“How much is left?”

Bai Zhi needed to figure it out so that she could think about the next steps.

“Less than a hundred.”

Hearing this, Bai Zhi quickly had them take it out, then she took out her herbs, poured them into a basin, and eventually directly bled into it.

Her left hand could no longer be looked at, she could only use her right hand.

“Xingxing, what are you doing…?”

Xiao Qi was flabbergasted and looked at Bai Zhi with disbelief and concern.

“No one’s blood is more useful than mine. In my body, all kinds of herbs that my grandfather forced me to drink made me slightly better.

I’m thankful I obediently consumed them, now bleeding provides plenty.

Hurry and help, throw all the talisman papers in there, take them out, and later just light them and throw them out.”

It was definitely nothing less than a bomb.

All the medicine powder was flammable, and the blood had just stained them.

The others nodded quickly, and soon Bai Zhi’s complexion was so pale, she could no longer bleed.

Captain Hann couldn’t bear to watch anymore, “Bai Zhi, that’s enough. So, the medicine you just gave me also contains your blood, doesn’t it?”

Bai Zhi smiled and showed a forced smile. “I’m amazing, right? Because my terrible dad gave me such a poor body, I had to consume so much medicine, which now can finally be of use.”

Of course, even without this reason, she would have done the same.

After everything was soaked well, they rushed to the house where Xu Yan and his team were, and Bai Zhi was nearly passing out, being carried by Captain Hann.

“Hand me over to Moh Li…”

Bai Zhi said her last words and passed out. It was strange for Captain Hann to hand Bai Zhi over to Moh Li as her body had already become extremely weak.

Moh Li could only relieve her pain with acupuncture for the time being, but eventually, he thought of a way and fed her his own blood.

Xu Yan couldn’t accept it, asking, “As a doctor, don’t you know about different blood types?”

But Moh Li had no other options, so he dripped his blood onto the Jade Pendant and placed it in Bai Zhi’s palm before feeding it to her.

What Xu Yan and the others saw was merely him desperately feeding her blood.

Bai Zhi felt warmth and slowly began to dream.

The Queen of Loulan wanted more. She found the place and released the suppressed poisonous insects, aiming to control everyone. As long as she possessed the Flame Grass, she could slowly control the poisonous insects and make everyone obey her unconditionally…

But striking a bargain with a demon was always perilous, and the slightest carelessness could lead to disaster. Everyone in that place died, including her.

And the insect grew bigger and bigger.

It tried to escape, activating the Mechanism, and buried everything back underground.

Sand covered everything.

Bai Zhi slowly opened her eyes; it was already evening.

Grandpa Xiao and the rest were also getting ready to explore.

This time, Moh Li was prepared to go with them, while Captain Hann stayed behind to watch over the people here.

Bai Zhi handed him the last of her pills.

“This is the last I prepared. If we don’t return within three days, take them and leave. I’m telling you…”

The map of this place was already in Bai Zhi’s mind. “Once out, press that spot, and everything here will truly be buried.”

If she couldn’t reseal it, then it was fate’s cruel joke. But she was ready to do whatever it took.

“I understand.”

Captain Hann grasped Bai Zhi’s intention, but he couldn’t believe that all this burden would fall on a young girl.

Xu Yan took Bai Zhi’s hand, and Han Feng did the same.

“Xingxing, you must come back.”

“Little sister, you must come back.”

Bai Zhi gave a smile. They didn’t say she couldn’t go; instead, they supported her, which actually surprised her.

“Do you know? I’m glad you didn’t stop me. And I hope after this time we can have a meal and talk properly, okay?

I came back here for you all.”

Bai Zhi looked at Xu Yan, wishing to really talk with them, trusting that Han Feng wanted to talk with her too.

“Okay.”

Han Feng nodded solemnly. He understood.

Everything became clear.

The reason for the scent of blood, because that was Xingxing’s blood.

“I want to leave this place with you, so please believe in me.”

Bai Zhi followed Moh Li and Grandpa Xiao, leaving the place. They made sure to cover their tracks by spreading copious amounts of Medicine Powder.

Bai Zhi walked towards the center of the city, towards the opulent palace.

As the Queen of Loulan, she truly wanted to enjoy the utmost extravagance, so every detail was a masterpiece of ingenuity.
