Chapter 2730 City Building Celebration (3)
However, no matter how the representatives of the two headquarters complained that they were currently without a leader, the great elder and the others were unmoved.
Right at this moment, Shen nuo"s voice rang in Leng ruoxue"s ears again,""Xue "er, didn"t you say there was a centipede? Where was it? Quickly show me! I"m in need of it now. "
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen nuo ran into the living room in a hurry, then pulled Leng ruoxue and ran out.
Uncle long watched the two of them leave and swallowed the words he was about to say.
Shen nuo pulled Leng ruoxue all the way back to the courtyard that was specially used for their office.
There were already a few pairs of eyes waiting for them.
"Xue "er, where"s the centipede?" Liuyue and Jiang Ning asked at the same time when they saw Leng ruoxue. It was obvious that they couldn"t wait anymore.
Leng ruoxue looked at them helplessly. Aren"t these people a little too impatient? She had only just remembered yesterday that she had caught a ten-thousand-year centipede. She didn"t expect that they would remember it today.
"What, you guys want to use it too?" Leng ruoxue blinked her beautiful eyes as she asked.
"Hehe, we"re researching a medicine that just so happens to require the ten thousand year centipede"s poison. Xue "er, you should have collected it, right? Don"t tell us that there"s none!" Jiang Ning said immediately. The expression on his face was as if he was saying,"if you don" t, I"ll be disappointed!"
"Yes, there is, but ..." Leng ruoxue was only halfway through her sentence when she turned to first elder and asked,""First elder, do you need it too?"
"I want a piece of the centipede"s outer sh.e.l.l to be used for artifact refining!" The first elder said with a smile.
"Oh!" Leng ruoxue then looked at Liu Feng and Mo Yan. There was no need to ask these two, they must also be thinking about the centipede"s sh.e.l.l.
Smiling calmly, Leng ruoxue s.h.i.+fted her thoughts and a huge centipede was moved out of her house.
When the great elder and the others saw the size of the centipede, they couldn"t help but sigh in their hearts. Good heavens, it"s indeed a ten thousand year centipede! It had actually grown so big!
Aiyaya! This centipede sh.e.l.l was good stuff! The great elder"s eyes were s.h.i.+ning. He couldn"t help but reach out his Wolf claws and touch the black centipede"s s.h.i.+ny hard sh.e.l.l.
Liu Feng and Mo Yan were also very interested in the centipede"s sh.e.l.l. After the first elder made his move, the two of them also stretched out their Wolf claws and stared at their prey with bright eyes. Then, they said in unison,""Xue "er, this centipede"s quality is pretty good. Its sh.e.l.l can definitely be made into a few sets of top-grade armor!"
"Yes, I know, but ... I can"t let you use its sh.e.l.l yet!" Leng ruoxue laughed evilly.
Upon hearing this, the three craftsmen, led by the first elder, immediately exploded with dissatisfaction!
"Little girl, you"re not such a petty person! You can"t even share a centipede like this with us?" First elder looked at Leng ruoxue with a look of despair, as though she had said something she should not have.
"Little Xue "er, can you share some with us? it"s so big, you can"t use it yourself." Liu Feng begged coquettishly.
"Yeah, I want one too." Mo Yan was more direct.
"It"s not that I"m being stingy, but I really can"t give it to you now. " Leng ruoxue said helplessly. This guy was still alive!
However, before she could explain, Leng ruoxue heard first elder suddenly exclaim and jump up. There was still a look of lingering fear on his face, and it was obvious that he had suffered a great shock.
"It "s, it"s moving!" The first elder stuttered.
"What moved?" Liuyue and the others were baffled, not understanding what he was talking about.
"The centipede is moving!" The great elder pointed at the motionless centipede on the ground.
"It can"t be?" Everyone was shocked, and their eyes widened in disbelief, especially Liu Feng. He did not believe the first elder"s words at all. He had touched the centipede just now, but why did he not feel it move?
Thinking up to this point, Liu Feng even gave centipede a few hard kicks before turning to the crowd,""Look, it"s not alive at all. First elder, you"re seeing things!"
"You brat, you"re the one who"s seeing things. This guy is really alive!" When first elder heard Liu Feng"s words, he was furious.
"Is that so?" Liu Feng then turned around and carefully examined the centipede, his face filled with suspicion.
Seeing that Liu Feng did not seem to believe him, the great elder could not take it anymore. He pulled Leng ruoxue over and said,""Girl, you"re the one who took out this centipede, so you have the most right to speak. Do you think it"s alive?"
Leng ruoxue smiled faintly when she heard this. She then stepped forward and kicked the giant centipede,""If you"re still playing dead, I"ll really tear you apart!"
"Don "t! Ancestor! I was wrong!" Hearing this, the black centipede that was lying on the ground immediately struggled to get up and begged.
"Uh! It"s really alive!" At this point, Liu Feng had no choice but to believe it. Since the centipede had already spoken, he couldn"t possibly lie to himself!
But soon after, he looked at Leng ruoxue in disappointment and grumbled,""Xue "er, what do we do now?"
"Salad. Didn"t you want to use it to refine pills and weapons? Take it! I"m giving it to you!" Leng ruoxue said nonchalantly.
When the centipede heard this, it immediately burst into tears and wailed,"ancestor! I"m already so well-behaved, so why do you still want to kill me? Sob ... Please leave me a way out! I don"t want to die!"
Hearing centipede"s plea, first elder and the others were all speechless.
This guy was crying so miserably that they couldn"t bring themselves to do it. However, the huge temptation of the centipede"s sh.e.l.l made them unwilling to give up just like that. For a moment, they were extremely conflicted.
First elder looked at the centipede, then turned to look at Leng ruoxue. He sighed and said,""Girl, you"ve given us a difficult problem!"
"No need to make things difficult for me. This guy is my captive. If you want to kill him, just do it. Besides, I kept it for my own use!" Leng ruoxue said nonchalantly.
"Then, why don"t you crack it first, and then we"ll split it?" After hesitating for a moment, first elder couldn"t help but suggest.
"Don "t! Don "t! Ancestors, ancestors, please let me go! I"ll be your slave. You won"t regret keeping me alive! I promise!" Hearing the Grand elder"s words, centipede immediately began to plead with the others.
Looking at the giant centipede with its huge eyes filled with tears, the first elder and the others were in a dilemma.
To be honest, they really felt that the centipede"s greatest use was to refine pills and weapons. It"s definitely a good material! Unfortunately, why was it a living one! Grand Elder and the others were not bloodthirsty people, so they really couldn"t bear to kill Beastie, who had no enmity with them.
Turning their heads, first elder and the others no longer looked at the centipede. As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind. If they continued to look, they were afraid that they would not be able to control the greed in their hearts!
AI! It was a good material!
"Girl, since it"s still alive, let"s let it go for now!" Sighing heavily, the first elder said with a face full of reluctance.
"It"s up to you. I"m giving it to you anyway. However, remember to let me know before you kill it. Let me tame it first. It"ll also be a contribution to my beast taming technique." Leng ruoxue reminded him with a smile.
"O-okay!" First elder and the others wanted to cry but had no tears. Could they refuse this gift?
He really regretted asking Xue "er for the centipede! Not only could he not use it immediately, but he also had to keep it. It was really a mistake!
The few of them were filled with regret.
After that, seeing that there was nothing else, Leng ruoxue bade farewell to first elder and the others before leaving, leaving behind only first elder and a few others. They looked at the giant centipede with a face full of worry.
"What should I do with you?" After staring at the black centipede for a long time, the great elder sighed.
"Don"t kill me. I, I can do many things. I can give you my poison. Really, I promise to be obedient and listen to you. Just don"t kill me!" The giant centipede immediately expressed its determination.
"Then spit out some poison first!" After hearing this, Jiang Ning said rudely. d.a.m.n it, how could he forget? if they wanted to extract the poison, they didn"t even need to kill the centipede. As long as it was willing to cooperate, it would be fine. And now, the centipede was obviously very willing to cooperate.
The centipede nodded and then opened its mouth.
Jiang Ning also took out a small white jade bottle and put it in front of the centipede"s mouth.
Not long after, the centipede vomited an entire bottle of poison. It was so tired that it was gasping for breath. It had to be said that extracting poison was also physical work!
"You"ve worked hard! Take a good rest, we"ll continue later!" Jiang Ning patted the centipede"s head and praised it.
The black centipede"s face turned green when it heard the words "continue later". However, it did not dare to resist and could only nod.
The time that followed slowly pa.s.sed by as he continued to extract poison from his body in Jiangning.
The giant centipede was finally exhausted after being drained of countless bottles of poison. It fell to the ground and couldn"t get up again. Even so, Jiang Ning didn"t give up his right to exploit it. He even held a small white bottle in his hand and waited for it to continue spitting out poison.
Seeing this, the big black centipede even wanted to die. Wu...Can you not abuse and exploit the vulnerable group like this? They were really bullying the centipede! If this went on, it would be better to let these people directly kill it in the first place, so that it would not have to suffer so much!
At this moment, the giant centipede hated its begging just now! The current him was living a life worse than death!
In the end, the giant centipede pa.s.sed out from overexertion. This time, it was definitely not pretending!
After glancing at the giant centipede that had died from exhaustion, the first elder and the others gave Jiang Ning a thumbs up."Amazing!"
"Don"t wors.h.i.+p me, I really didn"t do anything!" Jiang Ning felt a little embarra.s.sed when he saw the teasing look in their eyes.
