But where they were now, in addition to some strange-shaped stones, there were some traces of being washed by the lake.
Moreover, the wasteland was unobstructed. It did not look like a place to hide people at all.
However, this was the place where he had disappeared.
"Do you see anything?" Long Tianhao lowered his voice and asked in her ear.
"Well, if I'm not wrong, this is an illusory killing formation."
She had encountered such a situation many times before, so for the safety of herself and the people around her, she had also studied hard in this area.
But the illusory killing formation on this wasteland was a little special.
How to say it?
Ordinary illusory killing formations looked ordinary from the outside, but there was something special inside.
But this wasteland, if Lin Mengya had not sent someone to keep an eye on Chu Jingye and make sure that he had entered it, she would never want to get close to it in her life.
It was not fear.
They would subconsciously ignore this place. After all, this place could be seen clearly at a glance. Even if someone wanted to hide inside, they wouldn't be able to do so.
Therefore, the main function of this illusory killing formation should be concealment.
"Shall we go around it?" She heard the man's suggestion again.
But Lin Mengya only took a glance and shook her head.
It was said to be a wasteland, but the tallest stones here were probably as high as a person.
And it stretched to a very far place, so it was not easy to go around it.
But if they went in now, they might alarm the people inside.
While thinking, she suddenly thought of the queen bee she had caught before.
Without the support of the worker bees, the queen bee was also affected.
Fortunately, although Lin Mengya did not know how to keep bees, she could use the method of raising poisonous insects to force the queen bee into a semi-dormant state.
Those beekeepers must be in cahoots with Chu Jingye.
Since they were able to control and use these wasps to do evil, they must have a unique method.
For example, this queen bee should be carefully cultivated by them. Every loss of one may affect the queen bee.
Lin Mengya was quite sure of this.
Because she saw some traces of artificial cultivation on the queen bee's body.
She could not be wrong.
Therefore, since they were cultivated with great difficulty, they would definitely have a unique way to sense the presence of the Queen Bee.
Fortunately, she did not do anything to the Queen Bee, so that the other party would not suspect that the Queen Bee had fallen into their hands.
Thinking of this, she released the Queen Bee that she carried with her.
After some drops of potion, the Queen Bee gradually woke up from a semi-dormant state.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao hid behind a few big rocks and watched the queen bee crawl slowly.
Perhaps it was for the convenience of raising it, the wings of this queen bee were so small that they were not very useful.
After the queen bee crawled on the ground for a while, Lin Mengya suddenly heard a buzzing sound similar to that of a flying hornet.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately gestured to the people around her.
In the next moment, everyone moved in unison and crushed a wax pellet that was worn in the pouch at their waist.
Lin Mengya smelled a cold fragrance.
This was another kind of insect repellent that she had carefully formulated.
Although it was a small pellet, it could be used for at least ten days to half a month. It was absolutely effective in preventing and curing mosquito bites.
In fact, as long as she had this pellet, she would not have to worry about being harassed by small insects.
Of course, Lin Mengya could only use this kind of good thing for her own family.
Facts had proven that one could not be too kind. For example, the group of aboriginals.
If she did not continue to replenish her insect repellent, then the insect repellent would gradually lose its effect from tomorrow at the latest.
Moreover, the thing that Chu Lingyun brought that could make hornets go berserk was even ineffective against the insect repellent.
She did not think that Chu Jingye would be so kind as to let those people escape this calamity.
Soon, a dark cloud came pressing down on them.
Lin Mengya looked up and realized that it was not a dark cloud, but countless buzzing hornets.
She and most of the people she brought with her had experienced the pressure of being surrounded by hornets.
Although they had seen it before, it was not easy to get used to it.
For example, there was a sword hanging over one's head at any time.
Perhaps in just a few days, people would feel terrified because of the threat of the sword.
The hornets covered the sky and attacked. Finally, a few of them landed beside the queen bee.
Lin Mengya stared closely at the few hornets.
She saw that they were different from ordinary hornets. Their entire bodies were dark gold.
However, they did not stand out among the hornets.
A few golden wasps were circling around the queen bee, circling and dancing around it.
Finally, one of them stopped on the queen bee.
"What are they doing?" Lin Mengya was full of curiosity.
Long Tianhao lowered his head and looked at his wife helplessly.
If other women encountered this, they would have been scared out of their wits.
But his wife, look at her curious face. If it was not for the danger of rushing out rashly, she would have gone closer to take a look.
Apart from his wife, who else would have the guts to do so?
"Eh?" Lin Mengya looked at it and suddenly let out a small sound of surprise.
Long Tianhao was also attracted by her voice and fixed his eyes on the riverbed not far away.
He saw that the golden hornet that had landed on the queen bee seemed to have become one with the queen bee.
From afar, there was a little more gold on the back of the queen bee.
Other than that, it did not seem to have changed much.
However, Lin Mengya's eyes widened and there was a hint of understanding in her eyes.
No wonder!
She had been curious before, although her blood poison represented the word "dangerous" to most animals.
But in fact, except for a small number of animals with an extraordinary sense of smell, most of the animals that could be suppressed by her blood poison were venomous insects.
Her blood poison was the nemesis of those venomous insects.
However, these wasps didn't dare to get close to her even if she didn't have any insect repellent.
Now that she thought about it, it should have something to do with the way they were bred.
In a sense, they were not ordinary hornets, but a kind of venomous insect.
However, they retained the original habits of hornets.
This caused her to be extremely surprised.
Think about it. Although wasps were troublesome, they were ubiquitous in nature.
If this group of people pretended to be real hornets for the bred hornets, they could kill people secretly and would not arouse the suspicion of others.
After all, even in a modern society with advanced medical science, many people would die because of hornets every year.
They were like a group of hidden killers. Even if people really died, how many people would seek revenge on hornets?
Moreover, even if they were to vent their anger on the wasps, they would never have thought that these seemingly natural creatures actually had a master.
This was really a smart move!
Lin Mengya stared at the queen bee without blinking.
Those hornets, which were used as a cover and to eliminate future trouble, came and went suddenly.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya had always been generous to her own people, and the insect repellent she made for everyone was different.
Chu Jingye already knew that it was Lin Mengya who made the insect repellent, so he would definitely bring this news to his companions.
In this way, they would definitely be on guard and would probably make changes to her insect repellent.
In fact, this process could be very short.
At least this batch of hornets who came out to clean their tails would no longer be afraid of the insect repellent she made.
After the swarm disappeared, except for the dark gold on the back of the queen bee, the rest had also disappeared.
Not long after, Lin Mengya saw someone coming out from behind a big rock.
But this person …
When Lin Mengya saw the person's face clearly, she could not help but frown slightly.
Probably because they dealt with hornets all year round, it was normal for them to get injured.
This swarm of poisonous hornets was so poisonous that even the face and hands of their keeper were covered with red, swollen, festering marks.
Lin Mengya could sense that there were other toxins in this person's body besides the bee venom.
However, seeing that his movements were not restricted at all, Lin Mengya could guess that this person's body should have developed some resistance to the bee venom.
Or perhaps they had an antidote to the bee venom.
It was just that he had caused himself to look like a ghost or a human.
She did not know what the other party was after.
The man did not care about the wounds on his body. Instead, he squatted on the ground and picked up the queen bee with both hands.
Then, Lin Mengya saw him fiddling with the queen bee, probably to make sure that the treasure he had lost was safe and sound.
After making sure that the queen bee was fine, the man casually put it in his arms.
Then, they returned the way they came.
Without Lin Mengya's orders, the Jackdaw Guards who were in charge of monitoring the area immediately moved.
They followed the man unhurriedly.
They did not make a single sound and followed the man's movements completely. Even the angle at which they landed was exactly the same.
They were like the man's shadows, moving quickly and quietly through the illusory killing formation made of rocks.
After a while, Lin Mengya could no longer find them.
Another half an hour passed, but there was no movement from inside. There was no signal from the Jackdaw Guards in the sky either.
This meant that they had successfully followed the man into the illusory killing formation.
"Let's go." Long Tianhao held her waist and suggested.
Lin Mengya nodded, but stood where she was. She stared in the direction where the queen bee had been for a long time.
She did not expect the infiltration to be so smooth.
Of course, it was also because she had brought the queen bee with her.
But more than that, she was puzzled.
