Gu Qingxue followed the small hole in the paper window and looked outside. When she saw that the large group of poisonous creatures outside the door had slowed down a lot, she could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
However, the poison was still there, so she could not relax. Especially since they were now trapped here. Once the poisonous creatures gradually adapted to the smell of the powder, it was unknown whether they would attack.
She had to leave with the children first just in case.
However, with so many poisonous creatures blocking the door, it would not be easy to bring the children out safely. Moreover, the most important thing was that she could not easily ask others to come over and help. Otherwise, if she accidentally disturbed these poisonous creatures, she would only be the one in trouble.
Just as Gu Qingxue was rapidly thinking of a countermeasure, a suppressed voice suddenly came from above her head. “Senior Sister!”
Gu Qingxue’s heart skipped a beat. She hurriedly followed the voice and looked up. The tiles above her head were moved away, revealing Fei Yuge’s anxious face.
For a moment, Gu Qingxue could not believe her eyes. “Why are you here?”
“Senior Sister, now is not the time to talk about this!” Fei Yuge was a little anxious. “There are so many poisonous creatures around your room. How can I help you?”
Hearing Fei Yuge’s words, Gu Qingxue quickly calmed down. She looked up at her and said, “Your position is just right. Do you have any flint on you? I have some flammable powder here. I need to scatter the powder around and ignite it. ”
Fei Yuge’s eyes widened in surprise and she said worriedly, “Then Senior Sister, wouldn’t you be in danger? Once the room is set on fire, you will be burned alive! ”
“Poisonous creatures are afraid of fire. This is the only way to disperse them. Moreover, before the fire gets out of hand, I’ll take the children and leave,” Gu Qingxue said calmly.
Fei Yuge saw the calm look on Gu Qingxue’s face as she spoke. She gritted her teeth and nodded in the end. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. Senior Sister, quickly give me the medicinal powder. I see that these poisonous creatures are getting closer and closer!”
Gu Qingxue nodded. Then, she asked Fei Yuge to throw some string down and tie it around the bottle of medicinal powder. She gave the flammable medicinal powder to her.
Soon, the powder was scattered around, followed by a raging fire that set the surroundings ablaze.
The ring of fire spread in all directions, and indeed, it forced the poisonous creatures to retreat in large numbers.
Gu Qingxue saw this scene through the window and heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she saw the flames swarming towards her direction and quickly setting the wooden and paper doors and windows ablaze.
“Hiss, hiss-!” The poisonous creatures twisted their bodies crazily, unable to wait to pounce on them and break through the obstacles and rush through the flames. However, the fire was too strong. They were like moths to a flame.
Every time they charged into the flames, they would be stopped. Some were even directly swallowed by the flames. The air was filled with a pungent smell that could almost make people vomit.
However, these poisonous creatures did not seem to know how terrifying the flames in front of them were. They continued to rush toward the flames. Their whole bodies were covered in flames, making the originally burning flames look much dimmer.
Gu Qingxue became more cautious when she saw the situation. She knew very well that she could not rush out with her children rashly. Otherwise, once she was targeted by the group of crazy poisonous creatures, she would be seriously injured..
