The commotion caused by Fan Hongmiao and his group was quite significant, and Ji Yunshuang quickly noticed it. General Yao also recognized Shu Tianhe's voice.

They initially thought the civil officials wouldn't come, but to their surprise, they did.

Although these civil officials had been at odds with him since the beginning of the journey, General Yao still couldn't bear to watch them be devoured by these insects.

However, he is now in a precarious situation, barely able to save himself.

He and Zhu Qi were only able to survive thanks to Ji Yunshuang. He had no ability to save those civil officials.

And these insects never stopped attacking them. He was even bitten by one of them once.

Strangely, although he was in pain, the insect did not immediately drain his flesh and blood.

After the insect bit him, it fell straight to the ground, as if it had been poisoned.

He almost immediately guessed that this was probably related to the medicine Ji Yunshuang had given them.

He discovered that there were still several pills in the bottle when he ate them.

He was too embarrassed to ask Ji Yunshuang to save them, but he shamelessly said, "My lord, I wonder what kind of divine medicine you have bestowed upon them? May I give it to them? They are civil officials sent by the king this time."

Ji Yunshuang took the spray gun and sprayed the insects that were trying to devour Fan Hongmiao and other civil officials.

Most of the insects were stunned by the poison, and Lu Yinheng followed up to finish them off, strangling the remaining insects and then burning them to death with fire.

The two worked together seamlessly, temporarily eliminating a group of worms that were trying to devour Fan Hongmiao and other civil officials.

Ji Yunshuang finally had a moment to answer General Yao's question.

"This medicine has some toxicity; taking it will damage your body and shorten your lifespan. But precisely because it contains trace amounts of toxicity, it also provides some self-protection. Whether you want to take it or not, you should ask them!"

Making protective suits is too costly, and she doesn't have enough materials in her space, so she can't possibly prepare protective suits for everyone.

She had previously considered how soldiers without protective suits could protect themselves, so she researched this drug.

Hearing that it contained poison and would shorten one's lifespan, Fan Hongmiao instinctively wanted to refuse.

But considering their current situation, if they cannot escape these insects, they may not even survive today.

Therefore, he said almost without hesitation, "I'll eat it! It doesn't matter if it shortens my lifespan."

It's better than being eaten up by insects now, leaving not even a skeleton.

The remaining civil officials also expressed their desire to eat.

General Yao gave them the medicine and told them to take it themselves.

Fan Hongmiao took the medicine and quickly put it in his mouth.

By then, insects had already bitten his thigh. He grimaced in pain and nearly fainted.

But when the insect bit his leg, it fell straight to the ground as if it had been poisoned, instead of devouring him like it had eaten Shu Tianhe. He exclaimed excitedly, "It really works! It really works! I wasn't eaten!"

The remaining civil officials were also in tears.

They weren't eaten by insects; they survived.

Ji Yunshuang ignored the weeping Qi officials. Although General Yao's appearance had temporarily interrupted her plans, she still had to continue.

So far, she has only fought against bandits and soldiers of the State of Qi whose bodies are controlled by the insects, as well as some of its insect offspring.

The male insect, which she killed twice, remained motionless.

He manipulated the puppet to fight her. It remained calmly on the sidelines, scrutinizing and observing her.

Ji Yunshuang was entangled by these puppets and had not found an opportunity to make a move against them.

Frustrated by the puppets, she decided to lure them all together and kill them before figuring out how to deal with the monster.

"You lead the soldiers down the mountain first," Ji Yunshuang said to Xu Xi.

Xu Xi was filled with worry, but the scene was chaotic, and he couldn't ask too many questions. He could only listen to Ji Yunshuang and lead the people down the mountain first.

Fan Hongmiao and the others quickly followed.

Although the insects would be poisoned and knocked unconscious by the medicine given to them by Ji Yunshuang, countless insects still came to bite them.

Unlike General Yao and Zhu Qi, they didn't have the martial arts skills to use their weapons to kill the insects that were eager to eat them. As a result, countless insects still bit them.

The insect looks small, but it has extremely sharp teeth. Every time it bites you, the pain is so intense that you break out in a cold sweat.
