Chapter 464: Chapter 464: Attracting Insects Experiment
"Wait a minute~"
"What’s the matter, Sister Jhiang Yuan?"
He Lan asked, puzzled.
"Please exchange it for another room!"
The manager, upon hearing this, knew she was aware of the inside story and did not continue to say anything.
He took two extra keys, as not only He Lan, but Jiang Yuan was also staying over.
Of course, they stayed in separate rooms.
She didn’t need to manage the moving process, but still helped out in front of everyone, giving Jiang Yuan some face.
He Lan, this girl, was quite alright, not harboring too many ulterior motives. freewёbnoνel.com
She looked well-protected by her family, always seen staying close with Song Yi.
She sincerely apologized to her.
However, she didn’t care about those things.
The next day, they decided to conduct an experiment.
They took out the incense they had found from Dong Dali, preparing to attract some insects.
This activity, if successful, could be very dangerous.
They had people dig pits in advance, quite a distance away from the base.
They feared the unexpected, so had instructed people there in advance.
All day today, no one would be allowed to roam around casually.
Jhiang Yuan, not feeling reassured, had her parents and two kids stay in the space.
Ye Mianmian had Zhang Tiezhu for protection, which was somewhat reassuring.
Also, she was going with them, staying by her side, so it would be convenient to go in if danger arose.
The pit had been dug in advance, filled with plenty of straw, and surrounded by firewood and such.
It was roughly a thirty square meter area, with a depth of around two meters.
Being vertical, it wouldn’t be easy to climb out of, even if one tried.
Song Yi stayed close by her side, Dong Dali also came over, being with them, just under watch.
"Why did you bring him along?"
"This is our first time doing this, we fear any accidents.
Having him here, he can keep an eye on things."
Jhiang Yuan felt this wasn’t very wise; if this man hadn’t fully confessed, and when the insects arrived, he did something to harm everyone, it would be a loss not worth the risk.
Seeming to sense her concerns, Song Yi quickly explained.
"Don’t worry, there are people specifically watching him.
His arms and legs are bound, and his mouth is gagged.
Bringing him here is just to be on the safe side.
If he tries anything, he’ll be the first one dead."
Alright, after what happened last time, she had come to believe that this group really could do such things.
Anything that conflicted with the collective interest necessitated sacrifice.
"Alright, then keep a close watch."
Jhiang Yuan whispered, which Song Yi found incredibly adorable.
He didn’t know why, but he felt that everything she did was so unique.
Jiang Yuan, however, was very nervous, doing this for the first time, still following the directions of others.
Dong Dali said, at least one stick of incense was needed.
Worried about any issues, he only lit half a stick.
"Whoo, whoo~"
Camp Commander Xie looked at the person in front of him, waved his hand, and the guard by his side yanked the cloth off his mouth.
"Speak up!"
"Half a stick of incense won’t do, you won’t attract many insects, at least a full stick."
The group exchanged glances, and today another person had arrived.
It was the elderly big boss they had met before.
Seeing him nod, Jiang Yuan lit the other half.
"You better behave yourself, if there’s even a slight mistake.
With so many guns trained on you, one shot each, and they could turn you into a sieve."
Camp Commander Xie now disregarded any image, just fearing the man might pull a trick.
"I dare not, as long as you can let me go, I will cooperate fully."
In the face of life and death, other concerns meant nothing.
He still could figure this much out.
With a wave from Camp Commander Xie, someone nearby gagged him.
Meanwhile, everyone’s attention was drawn over here.
An incense stick had burned down to nothing.
Everyone also hid on the side, not daring to make a sound.
"What on earth is going on, there is no noise at all!"
Some people could no longer wait and their looks toward Dong Dali were not friendly.
"There’s noise~"
Song Yi whispered softly, while everyone else was still puzzled.
What noise?
Only Jhiang Yuan was very nervous; his hearing was much better than the average person’s.
Sure enough, not two minutes had passed before tiny red insects started to appear.
The location was exactly where the incense had been burning before.
"My God~"
She was also very astonished that the incense could actually summon insects.
It was too incredible.
However, the situation that followed was more terrifying.
At first, there were only insects, but gradually, they started to increase in number.
When they all gathered together, they formed waves of red that writhed and squirmed in a truly horrifying manner.
Jhiang Yuan forcefully suppressed his inner fear, and his other hand held onto Ye Mianmian, which gave each other some encouragement.
"Is it over now, don’t you see any on the road?"
Jiang Yuan said this, clearly asking Song Yi.
"It should be over, let’s move, Camp Commander Xie."
"Alright!"
Upon receiving the signal, the other side gestured with their hand and everyone sprang into action.
They threw the dry wood directly into the pit, followed by pouring gasoline.
The entire process was carried out very swiftly; everyone was worried and dared not delay at all.
If a single insect climbed up, it could result in casualties, which would be absolutely unacceptable.
"Light it!"
Seeing that everything was ready, Camp Commander Xie gave the order and someone threw matches down.
Fueled by the gasoline, the fire quickly ignited.
The insects at the bottom went crazy.
Some had already started climbing up, and now a lot had made it onto the wood.
Jhiang Yuan silently took out a mask, putting it on himself and Ye Mianmian. With so many insects, the smell was bound to be terrible.
As expected, the insects began to burst, and the fire grew larger.
Followed by wafts of terrible stench.
Everyone covered their mouths and noses. Song Yi gave her a reproachful look.
His wife had not given him a mask, and Jhiang Yuan, preoccupied with pulling Ye Mianmian to the side, hadn’t thought about it.
"Camp Commander Xie, we might not have enough wood."
The people at the bottom reported to him, and Jhiang Yuan heard them too.
"Hurry up!"
"Yes!"
"Sister Yuan, what if we run out of wood? Will it not burn them all?"
"Don’t worry, they all prepared in advance, there will definitely be extra, stop worrying."
Sure enough, soon someone brought new wood.
Thrown directly into the fire, the fire continued.
The sounds of bursting from below gradually decreased, probably meaning most were dead.
"That’s great, this method is effective."
Jhiang Yuan was delighted and looked toward Song Yi in front.
As if telepathic, he also turned his head.
He gave her a slight smile in response.
Just when everyone was happy, a rustling sound started up nearby.
If you didn’t listen carefully, you couldn’t hear it!
"Oh no!"
