Chapter 502: Collecting the Net
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Lin Suisui first sent the news of this ritual to Lu Ze, Lu Ze had already instructed someone to make arrangements.
Therefore, with Lin Suisui’s order, no one inside could escape.
Lin Suisui’s gains from this trip were huge.
It included the ‘Poison Man’, who had been tortured to the point of almost losing his human form in the dungeon, Princess Corgila, who had entered the country secretly, and the unconscious Song Zhou, who was placed on the bed in the secret room.
It was obvious that the arrival of Lin Suisui and the others had completely disrupted Princess Corgila’s arrangements. The princess, who used to be high and mighty, looked a little indescribable now.
She didn’t look any better than the ‘Poison Man’ in the dungeon.
It was obvious that she wanted to use Song Zhou’s body to do something, but unfortunately, Lin Suisui and the others were too fast and didn’t give her a chance to take things further.
Princess Corgila, who had completely lost her ability to resist, was like a rat in the mud. Although she wished she could rush forward and tear Lin Suisui, who had disrupted her plan, into pieces, her body, which had long been riddled with holes by the tame head technique, couldn’t support her plans at this moment.
She could only struggle and roll around like a maggot. It was a disgusting sight to behold.
“Madam, this…”
Even though he had seen many things before, Su Le was still disgusted by the scene in front of him.
“Are Doctor Luo and the others here yet?”
Lin Suisui also took two steps back in disgust. She pinched her handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose and retreated to the door with Su Le before asking about it.
“I’ve already sent someone to pick them up.”
As Su Le replied, he remained still vigilant and didn’t look away from Princess Corgila, who was on the ground. He was afraid that she would hurt the Madam if he didn’t pay attention.
“This person is already in this state. Can… can he still be saved?”
Although he wasn’t a doctor, just by looking at the princess’ current state, Su Le felt that this disgusting thing was definitely beyond saving.
This could hardly be considered a human!
“I wasn’t going to save her.”
Lin Suisui looked at Princess Corgila, who was struggling and shouting on the floor of the room, and frowned slightly.
“It’s probably too late to save her anyway.”
Thinking of the “medicine men” she had seen in the basement previously, Lin Suisui didn’t have a good impression of the “princess” in front of her at all.
Perhaps she was quite pitiful due to the fact that she had a weak body.
But to make other people suffer in order to heal herself…
This method was too despicable!
However, Princess Corgila’s current miserable state also reminded Lin Suisui.
The tame head technique masters of the Siamese Kingdom were not to be trifled with. There were ruthless to others, but were even more ruthless to themselves!
Such an opponent…
She really couldn’t be careless at all.
“Originally, 1 wanted to capture this princess and see if I could get some information from her.
However, from the looks of it, this plan is going to fall through.”
As Lin Suisui spoke, she took out a silver needle. Then, she pierced her finger and flicked the blood droplets at Princess Corgila, who was already rolling towards her.
At first, neither Princess Corgila nor Su Le, who was guarding her, understood what Lin Suisui wanted to do.
Not long after, Su Le heard the sound of insects crawling.
He immediately wanted to draw his knife, but Lin Suisui stopped him.
“It’s fine. 1 invited my friend to help deal with this troublesome situation.”
As Lin Suisui comforted Su Le, she took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and sprinkled the powder on Princess Corgila, who was howling and rolling.
Su Le finally saw where this rustling sound came from.
They were ants.
Densely packed ants were crawling towards Princess Corgila from all directions.
The ants seemed to have been driven by something as they gnawed at Princess Corgila’s body.
In the blink of an eye, Princess Corgila turned into a pile of bones…
What shocked Su Le even more was that the ants didn’t leave directly after devouring Princess Corgila’s body. Instead, they continued to bite and fight. Thousands of ants rolled and gathered into a brown ant ball in front of him.
As if she felt that this wasn’t intense enough, Lin Suisui pricked her finger again and flicked a few more drops of blood at the rolling ant ball.
Like hyenas that had smelled food, the agitated ants fought even harder.
The millstone-sized ant ball was also shrinking.
In the end, there was only a thumb-sized red ant left where the ant ball had been fighting.
At this moment, Lin Suisui smiled in satisfaction. Then, she walked over and squatted down before reaching out to put the ants into her sleeve.
“Madam, Doctor Luo and the others are here.”
Just as Lin Suisui put away the ant, a shadow guard reported respectfully from outside.
Lin Suisui nodded before turning to Su Le and saying, “Let’s go and see those ‘medicine people’.”
Although she had more or less determined that those ‘medicine people’ were probably beyond saving, Lin Suisui was still unwilling to give up so easily.
She turned around and, accompanied by Su Le, went out with Doctor Luo and the others to the underground chamber where the ‘medicine people’ were placed.
Su Le, who had barely restrained himself because of Princess Corgila’s appearance, couldn’t help but cover his mouth and rush out after he saw everything in the basement.
In this basement, there were more than ten iron cages placed against the wall.
In every cage, there was a ‘medicine person’ covered in the tame head technique.
These ‘medicine people’ were like plants that had been parasitized by mycelium. Only the occasional moan could indicate that they were still alive. As for the rest…
“Madam, these people…”
Doctor Luo swallowed hard and was silent for a long time before saying, “Why don’t we give them a quick death?”
“Wait a little longer.” Lin Suisui was silent for a long time before making a decision. “Su Le, get someone to invite the county governor over.
If I’m not mistaken, the medicine people here should be the missing wanderers and beggars in Cloud Mountain City.
The county governor is the controls the entire Cloud Mountain City. We should let him take a look.. This is what he means by ‘living and working in peace’!”
