Chapter 85 The Ultimate (4)
Watching Xie Yuchen and the others leave with the fat man, Wangyou simply took out a backpack, packed some necessities, and entered the Devil City with her camera.
The Devil City was clearly formed by long-term wind erosion and other natural conditions. Occasionally, the sound of wind passing through the tiny cracks could be heard, as if many people were howling like ghosts.
No wonder it's called the Devil City!
Wangyou didn't follow the mani stones, but took a different path. The map showed that this ghost city covered more than 800,000 square kilometers. If people who went in got lost in these narrow paths, their chances of getting out were slim.
She walked and took pictures the whole way, and Wangyou regretted not bringing a photographer with her, because now she could only take selfies.
"Host, be careful! A lot of insects are flying over there!" Duobao said anxiously.
Wangyou glanced around and, good heavens, a bright red cloud was approaching. These insects looked quite poisonous.
Wangyou quickly took out a bottle of her specially made insecticide and sprayed it around for a long time. Half of the insects died and the other half escaped.
"These bugs smell rotten; they're bred from corpses!" Wangyou said, squatting down and examining the bug carcass.
"Host, this looks like a carrion beetle!"
"Judging by all these bugs, the group that went in to look for people probably didn't get away with it!"
"Host, do you want to go in and rescue them?"
Do you think I have "meddling" written all over my face?
"Okay, would you like to purchase a complete encyclopedia of biology, host?"
"No need, I can study just as well in college!" Looking at the corpses of these insects, Wangyou decided on her college major and is now just waiting for her college entrance exam results.
Adhering to the principle of not wasting anything, Wangyou found a larger plastic bottle and put the dead red worms in it. Who knows, she might be able to make rare biological specimens when she got back!
After packing up the insects, Wangyou continued to wander around. As she wandered, she saw a large ship that was already rotten beyond recognition. By the way, she also saw the fat man, the young man, and a stranger, who seemed to have been brought back by the fat man.
There were many people lying on the ground, their condition unknown. Wangyou snapped a few photos and then walked out.
"Hey buddy, didn't you guys leave?"
Zhang Qiling remained silent!
"What a waste of your handsome face, it's a pity you're mute!" Wangyou rolled her eyes and said.
“Little girl, I’m not a talkative guy. If you want to know something, just ask me!” the fat man said, stepping forward.
"Were these people bitten to death by those red insects?"
"He was bitten to death by the Corpse Beetle King, and you encountered him too!"
"Hmm, I've encountered quite a few, and I've even collected a lot of insect corpses!" Wangyou pulled out a plastic bottle. "Look, these are all materials for making specimens!"
"How did you catch that? The body is so well preserved!"
"Use insecticide!"
"You're kidding, how could this insecticide possibly kill anything!"
"That's no ordinary insecticide, it's my specially made insecticide!" Wangyou said proudly.
The fat man gave Wangyou a complicated look, then gave her a thumbs up. Sure enough, none of those who dare to travel alone are easy to deal with.
"Do you still have any insecticide?" The fat man thought that they were going to the Queen Mother of the West's Palace next, and there was no guarantee that they would still have some of this stuff.
"Yes, I made a few extra bottles when I came out. What, do you want some?"
"Correct!"
"Give me the money!"
"Well, little sister, it's fate that we met in this vast sea of people, isn't it? Talking about money can hurt our feelings!"
"I don't seem to have any feelings for you guys!" Wangyou said honestly.
"Little girl, how much is it? I'll buy one bottle!" Panzi stepped forward and asked.
"Five thousand, I guess!" Wangyou wasn't quite sure, after all, the medicinal herbs she used to make medicines were all rare and couldn't be replaced by ordinary herbs.
"Okay, one bottle, please!" Pan Zi briskly took out his money, and Wang You briskly took the medicine.
"Let's go, Fatty, let's go find Young Master San!" Panzi said, putting away the insecticide.
"Where's the guy?"
"Wait for us, buddy!"
"Little sister, be careful!"
Watching the three walk further and further away, Wangyou turned around and went into the cabin to take some photos, but there was hardly anything left after the fire.
There wasn't much left to film, and the only local specialty was the Corpse Beetle King. Wangyou turned around and went back. After returning, Wangyou packed her things and drove to Tamutuo.
When I stopped to rest halfway through my journey, I received a call from an unknown number.
"Hello, my name is Xie Nancheng. If I'm not mistaken, I am your biological father!"
"I know, is there something you need?"
Xie Nancheng's thousand words were all shut down by Wangyou's one sentence. After a long while, he cautiously asked, "Where are you? Are you safe? Do you need me to send someone to protect you?"
"No need, we'll talk about things after I start school. I'll come see you before school starts. That's all, I'll hang up now!" Wangyou hung up the phone and continued eating her noodles. Thanks to the space's preservation function, she didn't have to eat instant noodles every day.
Xie Nancheng looked at the phone that had been hung up, then at his family members surrounding him. "My daughter hung up the phone, saying she'd come to see us before school starts!"
"I'll go see if my daughter's room is missing anything!" Madam Xie rolled her eyes at Xie Nancheng and went straight upstairs.
As for Wangyou's blood-related brothers and the fake heiress, they looked at each other, unsure of what to say.
……
Wangyou was unaware of the Xie family's lawsuit, and even if she did, she wouldn't care. Right now, she was watching the sunset over the desert!
Finally, after traveling a long and winding road for four or five days, Wangyou arrived at the edge of a cliff, below which lay the road to Tamutuo.
It seemed the car was definitely not drivable. Wangyou slung her backpack over her shoulder, put the car into her spatial storage, and then followed the vines down the cliff.
After landing, Wangyou first saw a nest of eggs, which looked like snake eggs or something similar. After thinking for a moment, Wangyou put them away separately.
Looking at this place, which resembles a primeval jungle, one can truly appreciate the wonders of nature.
Wild mushrooms occasionally sprouted along the way. Wangyou picked up the non-poisonous ones and the poisonous ones as well. Occasionally, one or two ticks would crawl on the trees, but they were all dispelled by the scent of the sachet on Wangyou's body.
"There are many rare plants here, especially poisonous ones!" Wangyou looked at the clumps of poisonous plants as if she had fallen into a rice jar.
These poisonous herbs are perfect for making poison on the spot. Anyway, Wangyou wasn't in a hurry to leave. She found an open area, lit some incense, and smoked the surrounding area before starting to set up her tent.
After setting up the tent, Wangyou lit a fire and began processing the poisonous herbs she had just collected, making poison and antidote pills.
There are a lot of poisonous plants here, which means there are also a lot of poisonous insects. Usually, there is an antidote for poisonous things nearby, so Wangyou thought it was a precaution.
When you're busy, time flies by. Wangyou rubbed her sore neck and looked up to see the corpses of several snakes.
"Is this a local specialty? It looks like a snake, but it also has a rooster's comb!" Wangyou muttered as she picked up a snake carcass and examined it for a moment.
