Rebirth: I Became a Maggot 2

Chapter 184 Poisoned

It was clear that Mengmeng was also annoyed by what was happening. She was trying to escape, but the people in front of her were making it seem like they were playing around. No wonder she was angry.

After Mengmeng shouted, everyone finally shut up. Then Mengmeng spoke again: "Okay, now let's get back to the main topic. Would you like to take us away from here?"

"Where are you going?" I asked cautiously. We're under someone else's roof now, so we have to be humbled. Dafu and I have both lost the ability to fly. What if Mengmeng gets upset and orders Xiaoli to eat us?

"It's not far, we want to go to Guanyun Mountain," Mengmeng said casually.

Hearing this, I instantly felt a chill run down my spine. Isn't this a scam? Isn't this a joke? How could this be?

Many people may not know where Guanyun Mountain is, but I do. I remember that year, I was seventeen, and she was seventeen too. We were both young and full of vigor, and we were both in the prime of our youth.

That year, we fell in love. That same year, we wanted to travel to Lu You, and that's where Guanyun Mountain is, because it has the most beautiful auspicious clouds.

It is said that standing on the mountaintop gives you the feeling of being carried on a cloud to marry you, just like in the movie "A Chinese Odyssey".

You should know that teenagers in love are crazy, reckless, and unwaveringly loyal.

So I searched on Baidu for directions and addresses to Guanyun Mountain, how to get there, what transportation to take, and when is the best time to go. I did all that.

The rest was just making money and then going. I still vaguely remember that summer. I worked myself to the bone for two months and made enough money for us to go, but when I got back to school, the girl already had a new boyfriend.

I was in despair in an instant. From then on, I had a catchphrase: "Why do I need a girlfriend if I can handle things with my own hands?"

And it was because that impression was so deep that I knew where Guanyun Mountain was.

Guanyun Mountain is located at the border of Hunan and Guangxi. Because few people go there, transportation is inconvenient. There is only one train passing through the area, and it takes a whole day to get to Guanyun Mountain from the nearest station.

That's why I say youth is reckless. If I had a girlfriend now who wanted to go to Guanyun Mountain, I would just say, "Are you crazy?"

But even if everything goes smoothly, it would take me two days to take this bunch of animals on the train to Guanyun Mountain. I still need to get to Wuhan. I don't have the time.

So I quickly said, "No, no, I can help if we're going to the outskirts or somewhere else, but going to Guanyun Mountain is definitely not an option."

"Really? But you can't just not go." Mengmeng said coldly.

"Do you feel your bodies are weak and your whole body aches?" Mengmeng continued coldly.

It would have been better if Mengmeng hadn't mentioned it, but now that she's brought it up, I'm actually starting to feel a bit of pain all over my body. Could it be...?

I immediately looked over at the adorable creature.

“That’s right, you’re all poisoned, but only I can cure you. I’ll ask you one more time, are you going or not?” Mengmeng said smugly.

When I heard that two people were poisoned, I was completely dumbfounded. I had always seen on TV that the main characters were poisoned, then used, and finally survived by going through many dangerous situations.

But I never imagined I'd have such a day, that I'd actually be poisoned. But to be poisoned by a snake's saliva, I guess I'm the first person in the world to ever do that.

I want to apply for a world record. Right now, there's only one song that can describe my feelings: I want to cry but I can't, even though the pain is as deep as the sea.

I suddenly felt like crying. In other people's novels, people travel through time, show off and slap faces, have all sorts of awesome skills, and are full of passion. How come when I'm in this, I'm being threatened to do this and that?

First, I was helped by a spider to find me a wife, then I was helped to find a headless fly, and now I have to be a nanny for a bunch of lousy bastards. Who can I cry to?

Faced with this almost hopeless situation, I could only lower my noble head and slowly say, "I accept."

I practically spat out those words through gritted teeth. How am I supposed to get this bunch of guys? I think I should take them to the hotel kitchen first and have the chef turn them into a bowl of nourishing snake soup, a dog meat hot pot, and a grilled bird. As for Xiaobai, just kill him.

That would be more like it, but how am I supposed to get around with such a large group and such a big target?

The most crucial thing is that the train wasn't a high-speed train, but a regular ordinary train, which is the kind of train that runs through that area. I'm furious.

If I don't go, I'll die right now; if I go, I won't know how I'll die.

Now I'm given two choices: how to die? One is to die now, and the other is to die in the future, not knowing how?

If it were you, what would you choose? I, for one, have chosen a future where there's still a glimmer of hope, but I don't know how I'll die.

Faced with this desperate situation, I can only accept my fate. Fortunately, the only thing I can accept is that the train is going to Hunan, so I can transfer in Hunan to get to Wuhan.

This is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. Now that I've made the decision, the next step is to figure out how to get to the train station, how to get on the train, what to be careful of on the way, and most importantly, whether my gamble will suddenly take effect.

So I quickly shouted, "It's not that I can't help you, but as you can see, we're all poisoned. What if we die on the way? So you have to detoxify us first."

"You don't need to worry about that. This is a slow-acting poison. You'll be fine for at least three days." Mengmeng still had a cold attitude: "Any other questions? If not, let's go out."

"There's one more thing," I hurriedly called out, "that is, follow my instructions on the way. I'll take you there, and then you'll give me the antidote. We'll be even then."

I'm afraid these ancestors will be completely bewildered at the crucial moment, like they're in that elevator. What's the point of playing then? They might as well just die right now.

“If your instructions are correct, why wouldn’t we listen? Is there anything else? If not, then we’ll set off.” Mengmeng said coldly to me.

"There's basically nothing else going on, so let's set off. We'll just have to see if we can catch the train." As I spoke, I started shaking my body, trying to shake off the saliva so I could fly.

But just as I finished shaking off the drool and was about to try to take off, a net suddenly appeared in the air and caught Mengmeng instantly.
