At this moment, many soldiers in the Qi army camp, like him, were silently calling out in their hearts, begging Ji Yunshuang to hurry up and save them!

On the day General Yao led his men to Jingyang City in an attempt to capture Ji Yunshuang and threaten her into handing over the medicine to treat the plague, the soldiers who remained in the camp were filled with high expectations.

In the eyes of the Qi soldiers, General Yao was an extremely capable general. Not only was he intelligent, but his martial arts skills were also unmatched.

With General Yao personally leading the charge, capturing Ji Yunshuang will be a piece of cake. He will surely be able to bring back the medicine and save all those infected with the plague.

But one day passed, then two days...

General Yao did not return with his men for a long time, and his initial confidence gradually turned into unease.

What made everyone even more anxious was that the soldiers infected with the plague began to change. Some frantically banged their heads against the wall, while others went berserk, their eyes glowing red, and killed anyone they saw.

When they first contracted the plague, these people were so sick that they didn't even have the strength to move.

But when they go berserk, their strength is extraordinary.

Ordinary soldiers were no match for them.

Some soldiers tried to maintain order but unfortunately died at their hands. This acted as a fuse, igniting all the fear that had been weighing on everyone's hearts because of the plague.

People lost faith in General Yao, and some soldiers began to have second thoughts and wanted to desert.

General Yao was extremely strict in disciplining his troops. Any deserter discovered would be shot on the spot. In addition to executing them on the spot, he would also record their names and report them to the imperial court.

All deserters will be recorded in detail on a list and posted nationwide. Their families will also suffer public scorn as a result.

Many soldiers had thoughts of desertion, but ultimately they were worried about their families and did not dare to run away easily.

But later, the situation in the camp deteriorated further. The soldiers who contracted the plague not only went mad and became agitated, but also attacked people indiscriminately.

Some soldiers even coughed up blood, and insects crawled out of their bodies and then into the bodies of other people.

At this point, the soldiers who wanted to escape no longer cared about anything else and fled. But these soldiers did not escape with their lives.

Many soldiers who escaped soon fell ill with the plague and collapsed, unable to walk. Thinking of the soldiers in the camp who had been infected with the plague and gone mad, with worms crawling out of their heads, they felt fear.

Will they end up like those soldiers, with worms crawling out of their bodies?

People were filled with fear and couldn't help but pray to God.

Praying to heaven was useless, so some people silently chanted Ji Yunshuang's name again, begging her to appear and save them...

Ji Yunshuang was unaware that many of the soldiers who had fled from the Qi army camp were infected with the plague and were even praying to heaven for her to save them.

She gave General Yao specially made clothes and sent him off to deliver a document to the King of Qi. Then she began to reorganize the military camp.

Many soldiers witnessed her heroic performance in slaying the insects and developed a deep respect for her.

In addition, she brought medicine and people to save their lives, so they felt not only admiration for her but also gratitude towards her.

In addition, General Yao personally introduced Ji Yunshuang to everyone and ordered everyone to obey Ji Yunshuang's orders.

This is equivalent to saying that General Yao issued a military order to everyone, instructing them to obey Ji Yunshuang's command.

Making your soldiers obey enemy commands seems insane. In fact, no country has ever done anything like it before.

However, the situation is special now. Although the soldiers of Qi think this order is crazy, they all obey Ji Yunshuang's orders.

Ji Yunshuang redistributed the remaining soldiers into new teams and assigned them new tasks.

Ji Yunshuang's earlier statement about tracking down deserters to prevent the spread of the plague was not just empty talk.

She really intends to do this.

This task cannot be undertaken solely by the soldiers of Qi, yet it cannot be done without their participation.

Therefore, Ji Yunshuang had Xu Xi arrange for people to act alongside these soldiers.

The others stayed behind to help her eliminate all the insects.

Those insects seemed to have an uncontrollable and obsessive craving for telekinesis.

Ji Yunshuang used her telekinesis as bait, which made it easier to distinguish between the insectoids and the non-insectoids. This made it easier for her to carry out her plan to exterminate all the insectoids.

During the process of killing the insects, she discovered that they were progressing very rapidly.

She used to frequently use her telekinesis to control their movement. But now, they seem to know it's bait she's set out and won't fall for it.

Moreover, they seemed to have devised a strategic plan to devour her at all costs. Every time she appeared, these insectoids would quickly surround her.

They tried every means to destroy the protective suit Ji Yunshuang was wearing.

It was fortunate that Ji Yunshuang's protective suit was sturdy; otherwise, they might have actually succeeded.

However, this strange phenomenon naturally attracted everyone's attention.

After eliminating the insects once again and cleaning up the scene, Xu Xi couldn't help but ask with concern, "Sir, are those insects holding a grudge? Is that why they kept attacking you?"

Ji Yunshuang couldn't talk about telekinesis, but she could use the excuse of holding a grudge to tell everyone about the changes in the insects.

Therefore, she nodded and said, "From my observation, these insects are not ordinary insects. Not only do they have brains and can think like humans, but they also progress very rapidly. Furthermore, I suspect that their communication is not limited by time or distance."

Xu Xi didn't understand Ji Yunshuang's meaning for a moment and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Ji Yunshuang said, "It means that if this worm sees me, it's as if all the worms have seen me, no matter how far away they are from it."

Xu Xi couldn't understand, "If one insect sees something, does that mean all insects see it? Isn't that a mess?"

Ji Yunshuang pursed her lips slightly, "Perhaps they transmit all the information to the main insect and then uniformly obey the main insect's commands."

Xu Xi asked, "Then we have to kill the main insect in order to kill all the other insects?"

Ji Yunshuang nodded slightly.

Xu Xi asked, "How can we find the master insect? The master insect is the witch."

"I think so!" Ji Yunshuang said, her hands behind her back, unconsciously looking in the direction of Jingyang City.

Zhengcheng is in chaos, making it difficult to send messages. I wonder how things are going with Lu Yinheng; has he found any trace of the witch?

She had far too little information about these insects. What she did have was merely speculation, and not necessarily accurate.

She wasn't one to place all her hopes on others. She couldn't help but ponder other avenues for breakthrough besides the shrine maiden.

"If only we could torture these insects!"

Xu Xi sighed and said, "If we could interrogate them like criminals, we might be able to find out where the main insect is. It's a pity that these are insects, and they're contagious."
