Mountain village beauty: Brother, don't stop!

Chapter 388: Chapter 388: The Bane of Poisonous Centipedes

On the way, Wang Hao once again saw several poisonous centipedes and caught them all, storing them inside the bag he had brought.

"Not good!"

After walking a bit further, Wang Hao came across a leg of a poisonous centipede with traces of blood on it, and next to it lay a poisoned creature, clearly indicating a battle had occurred here between the venomous beings.

The centipede was injured, and the creature had been poisoned to death by the centipede, while the surrounding vegetation stained with the toxic blood withered and even died.

Seeing the land before him rendered barren, Wang Hao couldn’t help but frown.

The mere blood of a centipede was causing such great harm to the forest; if left unchecked, it wouldn’t be long before not only the entire back mountain but also the whole of Chen Village would be destroyed.

Even worse, the Dragon Pool Spring was very close by.

"No, I must go and check on the Dragon Pool Spring first!"

That was Wang Hao’s lifeline; if anything happened to the Dragon Pool Spring, all his plans would go down the drain.

When he arrived at the Dragon Pool Spring, Wang Hao saw the land tainted by pollution, and his entire heart went cold.

But when they entered the cave, Wang Hao’s heart that had been hanging by a thread was finally put at ease.

"Thank goodness, there’s no problem here, thank the heavens!"

This was the first time Wang Hao sincerely thanked heaven and earth with all his heart.

Looking around the Dragon Pool Spring, the Lingzhi mushrooms inside were unaffected and growing robustly; Wang Hao completely relaxed.

"Wait a minute!" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Su Zhenping seemed to have discovered something and knelt down to touch the ground.

Upon following, Wang Hao saw that it was the trail of a centipede.

Previously Wang Hao had also seen small centipedes coming to the Dragon Pool Spring to heal their injuries, but the trail he saw just now was clearly not that of a small centipede; it must be the poisonous centipede that had escaped from the ancient tomb.

Following the trail that led to the edge of the Dragon Pool Spring and then suddenly turned back, leaving in another direction, Wang Hao thought.

"Luckily, it didn’t get into the Dragon Pool Spring; it would have been a disaster if the spring had been destroyed!"

Seeing the centipede had not entered the Dragon Pool Spring, Wang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

"The trail seems odd; it’s almost as if the poisonous centipedes are extremely afraid of the Dragon Pool Spring!" Su Zhenping boldly speculated.

Being told this by Su Zhenping, Wang Hao felt it was very likely.

If they weren’t afraid of the Dragon Pool Spring, why didn’t they, like the other centipedes, take a bath in it, which would benefit their growth even more?

So, Wang Hao thought about conducting an experiment right away, scooping up some water from the Dragon Pool Spring and sprinkling it into the bag with the poisonous centipedes.

The centipedes immediately began to frantically scamper around in the bag upon contacting the water from the spring, even emitting some strange noises that sounded quite terrifying.

After struggling for about five minutes, the centipedes stopped moving. Wang Hao poked them with a stick and found they were all dead.

"It seems the Dragon Pool Spring is their nemesis; it can take their lives!" Wang Hao exclaimed excitedly.

Without another word, the two quickly filled several bottles with water from the Dragon Pool Spring and hurried towards the location of the Blood Ganoderma.

Su Zhenping regarded the Blood Ganoderma as more important than his own life, not caring whether there were poisonous centipedes under his feet, he ran desperately. If it weren’t for Wang Hao knowing where it was, he would have been left behind long ago.

"Uncle Su, since when did you become so skilled with your feet? Running so fast, aren’t you afraid your old bones can’t handle it?"

By the time Wang Hao caught up with Su Zhenping, they had already reached the location of the Blood Ganoderma.

Having just stopped, Wang Hao started complaining non-stop, but Su Zhenping didn’t respond, his eyes fixed on the cave, looking extremely tense.

Wang Hao thought to himself that surely something major had happened, so he followed Su Zhenping’s gaze inside.

They saw a large tree next to the cave shaking violently, with several tentacles occasionally reaching out, and what’s more, a centipede fell from above.

Stepping closer, Wang Hao saw that it was a Red Giant Dragon Centipede that had fallen from the tree.

Perhaps the tree was too tall; having fallen from such a height, the Red Giant Dragon Centipede was dazed and didn’t immediately flee.

Just as the red giant centipede had not yet reacted, another poison centipede suddenly "whooshed" down from the tree and bit into the head of the red giant centipede with its wide-open mouth.

Then, the red giant centipede instantly became immobilized and was turned into a large meal for the poison centipede.

At that moment, many similar scenes of pursuit and killing were still unfolding on this large tree.

"Damn, we’re still one step too late!"

Wang Hao frowned secretly and, after pouring Dragon Pool Spring on himself and Su Zhenping, immediately walked into the mountain cave.

Upon entering the cave, he found it teeming with centipedes, a great many of which were red giant centipedes with nowhere to escape.

The red giant centipedes on the cave ceiling were cornered, either being bitten to death by the poison centipedes behind them or falling to the ground to be easily picked off by the poison centipedes below.

In any case, it was a certain death.

There were also many red giant centipedes here that Su Zhenping had raised, with whom he shared more or less some affection.

Su Zhenping then splashed some Dragon Pool Spring inside the cave, but the amount he had brought was too limited to be of any effect.

Wang Hao and Su Zhenping could only watch helplessly as the slaughter continued.

"Quickly check how the Blood Ganoderma is doing!"

Su Zhenping hurriedly walked further inside.

But a poison centipede inside, sensing movement outside, directly extended its head to bite at Su Zhenping.

Luckily, Wang Hao was quick to react, pulling Su Zhenping back while grabbing the poison centipede and tossing it out of the cave.

Although the two were covered in Dragon Pool Spring, the poison centipedes were now fighting for their lives, paying little heed to anything else, only seeking to attack their opponents.

"You wait here; I’ll go in and have a look!"

Worried there were still poison centipedes hidden inside, Wang Hao pushed Su Zhenping away and stepped forward. Having the energy of the Heart of the Dragon, he naturally wasn’t afraid of the poison.

By now, the cave was a mess. There was also a huge red giant centipede king, the breeding female centipede, curled up inside.

However, the red giant centipede king was already covered in wounds and barely clinging to life, appearing to have been poisoned.

Although Wang Hao wanted to reach out and grab it, the centipede king looked up weakly at Wang Hao, with no strength left to resist.

Knowing that this red giant centipede was done for, Wang Hao directly dragged it out.

"What a pity!"

Wang Hao said with a sigh.

"It’s over, now it’s completely over!"

Su Zhenping looked at the red giant centipede king with a face full of regret, continuously shaking his head.

"Did you see the Blood Ganoderma? How badly is it damaged?"

Thinking of his cherished Blood Ganoderma being destroyed made Su Zhenping’s heart feel as though it was being torn asunder.

"A miracle!"

Wang Hao walked further inside for a look, and the Blood Ganoderma inside was actually intact, stubbornly growing there. Many smaller ganodermas around it were damaged, but the largest one remained unharmed.

"It’s not damaged?"

Su Zhenping exclaimed ecstatically.

"Not at all, it’s still flawless!"

Wang Hao hurriedly replied.

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and pluck it out!"

Su Zhenping couldn’t wait and shouted.

"Are you sure?" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Wang Hao hesitated because Su Zhenping had previously refused to let Wang Hao touch the Blood Ganoderma unless he was dead.

But now, although the red giant centipedes were dead, the Blood Ganoderma was still growing there and had not withered.
