Chapter 508: Chapter 508 The Troublemaker from Out of Town

Could it be that the Mother Worm is hidden within this smoke?

However, Witchcraft Gu was always a secretive technique that remained hidden from the world, and even the original owner knew very little about it, let alone them.

Therefore, the two could only guess blindly. They had no choice but to pin their hopes on the old doctor, hoping he could provide more useful information.

"Is there anything else we need to be careful of regarding this Witchcraft Gu?"

Doctor Hu shook his head, "I don’t know much either, but this Witchcraft Gu is the hardest to guard against in the world, it can appear at any time in the course of people’s daily lives and meals. A slight carelessness in consuming the worm eggs, and the Gu insects would be planted."

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli exchanged glances, relieved that they had brought their own food and had not eaten anything here.

The two took Doctor Hu back to the cell before preparing to go out.

By now, the people in the cells had also heard the commotion here; however, they did not make a sound, only staring dumbly at the two.

After all, they couldn’t figure out who these two were. If they were the County Prefect’s men and the prisoners raised an alarm, claiming their innocence, it could annoy them, which is minor, but attracting the County Prefect’s attention would be a big problem.

Plus, they had heard that people outside had contracted a mysterious disease, and Doctor Hu had said that the cell was the only sanctum.

The people felt that at this critical juncture, it was better not to go outside.

So everyone stayed quiet as quails and did not speak.

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli loosened up their muscles, ready to deal with the Wizard.

Unconsciously, they had spent another hour outside.

The two yawned, tiredly, as their good night’s sleep was disrupted once again.

On the way to the high platform, Bai Junjun chattered incessantly, "This time, I can’t miss those gold and silver jewels again."

Li Wenli couldn’t help but laugh, "Alright, alright, I’ll carry them for you, princess."

Bai Junjun nodded seriously.

At that moment, the Witch Doctor on the high platform was meditating with his eyes closed when suddenly he heard two people chattering about carrying treasures.

He opened his eyes in displeasure.

All outsiders were not allowed to disturb him during the treatment period, didn’t those two persons know that?

As he was thinking, the two noisy people had slowly walked over.

They were two young men in crimson clothes.

Seeing the two approaching, the Witch Doctor showed a hint of contempt in his eyes, "Where did these children come from? Don’t they know that disrupting the altar is a serious crime?"

"Sorry, we’re from out of town, we’re not very familiar with the custom," Li Wenli replied still cheekily.

"Damn!" The Witch Doctor, hearing their tone, knew they had come looking for trouble and couldn’t help but sneer, "What an ignorant brat, today let me use you as nourishment for my Gu insects."

"..." Li Wenli laughed, "Come on, I’m not afraid of you."

This rather modern style of taunting made the Wizard feel quite uncomfortable.

He angrily flung his sleeve, and the skull that had been floating in the air suddenly turned into a stream of grey smoke that flew toward the two.

Only when it drew close did they realize that this smoke-like substance was actually many small grey insects.

These tiny insects were as fine as cow hair, nearly invisible to the naked eye, floating in the air like smoke.

They swiftly flew towards the two following the pervasive smoke in the air.

Li Wenli chuckled.

"I don’t know if Gu insects are afraid of water, but I’m certain that all bugs are afraid of fire."

With a wave of his hand, suddenly, a brilliant Fire Dragon flew out from his wrist.

The Fire Dragon confronted the black fog, which was no match at all.

In an instant, the Fire Dragon engulfed it, leaving not even dust behind as it vanished without a trace.

The Wizard, seeing the young man spewing fire from his sleeves, was greatly terrified.

"You... are you from the Fire-Swallowing Tribe?"

The Fire-Swallowing Tribe?
