Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 41: Traveling with Bees

Huang Sixi returned to Chongyang Palace and used honeycombs to extract an antidote from honey. He gave it to several civilians to take, and the bee venom was immediately eliminated.

At this point, Huang Sixi's trip to Mount Zhongnan came to an end.

He gained a lot from this trip.

However, there were more urgent adventures waiting for him, and he did not enjoy his leisure.

In the following days, he returned to Taibai Mountain to witness the founding ceremony of the Jianglong Society.

The day after the ceremony, he set out on his long journey.

Li Yan and his companions knew that they could not keep him, so they accompanied him down the mountain.

Tie Luohan led the horse for him, and when he got on the horse, he handed him the reins and said, "Take care on your journey, sir. Remember to leave early and come back early!"

It’s hard to part with good friends, but all good things must come to an end.

Huang Sixi nodded at him and said, "You stay in the mountains. I will be back after I finish my work in Tibet."

He turned around and clasped his fists towards Li Yan and the others: "No need to see you off. We'll see you later!"

After he finished speaking, he rode his horse forward, but after riding for more than ten feet, he suddenly let out a whoosh and stopped where he was.

Tie Luohan and Li Yan thought that he had something else to tell them and were about to listen attentively, but they saw him take out a porcelain bottle from his arms.

Several people recognized the porcelain bottle. It contained special honey. The bee venom that the civilian had been poisoned by a few days ago was neutralized with this honeydew.

Huang Sixi first pulled out the cork, then spread out his right palm and held the bottle.

He then secretly used the internal force of the Jade Bee Needle Technique, and his palms gradually heated up, quickly condensing into heat, which was transmitted into the bottle bit by bit.

Soon, a rich honey fragrance began to emanate from the bottle mouth, and soon spread to the flowers on the roadside.

It is September now. The foot of the mountain is planted with osmanthus trees, and the flowers are blooming everywhere. There are dense crowds of wild bees collecting nectar. After smelling the fragrance of honey, they swarm towards Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi immediately held up the honey bottle, and the wild bees moved towards the bottle, swarming around outside the bottle, forming a black swarm.

The Jade Bee Acupuncture Method records two methods of controlling bee colonies.

The first one is the sound transmission method used by Huang Sixi a few days ago. It uses internal force to imitate the sound of the bee colony to achieve the effect of commanding the bee colony. This kind of control is more subtle and can train the bee colony to be more orderly.

Granny Sun, a former servant of the Ancient Tomb Sect, is particularly good at the art of transmitting sound.

The second method is the honey fragrance method that Huang Sixi is currently using. This method uses fragrance to attract the bee colonies, but the command effect is poor.

In the past, when Xiaolongnu was trapped in a deserted cave, she used the honey fragrance method to summon wild bees to fight against poisonous spiders. This method is most suitable for use in the wild.

Huang Sixi was going on a long journey now, so he summoned the swarm of bees only to keep them company and did not require them to assist in the battle, so naturally there was no particular concern about the formation.

He let the swarm of bees swirl around his head in a chaotic manner, like a dark cloud.

Then he continued riding forward, with the swarm of bees following him like a shadow.

He couldn't help laughing: "With so many bees accompanying me, this trip won't be lonely!"

Looking at his and the swarm of bees' receding backs.

Hong Niangzi was suddenly fascinated. She thought it must be very exciting to travel the world like Huang Sixi. She was moved unconsciously, but quickly suppressed her emotions.

She stepped forward to support Li Yan and said with a smile: "Husband, Mr. Huang has gone far away, we should go back to the mountain!"

Li Yan hummed and raised his hand to pat Tie Luohan on the shoulder.

He advised: "Brother Luohan, my husband has the protection of the bee colony. Even if he travels thousands of miles away, he will definitely be safe. You don't have to worry about him! Let's go back quickly and make the Dragon Subduing Society prosperous. My husband will be happy when he comes back!"

"Too!"

Tie Luohan sighed and turned around.

Li Yan then turned to Luo Liru on the other side and talked about the situation of the Jinling Golden Dragon Gang.

Li Yan knew that the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang, Jiao Gongli, and the three heroes of Taibai were old friends. He did not intend to cooperate with the Golden Dragon Gang, but just wanted to contact the heroes in Jiangnan through Jiao Gongli. He was an ambitious hero. Establishing the Dragon Subduing Society was only the first step. He would not hide in the headquarters and do nothing. Next, he would find ways to make the Dragon Subduing Society's wealth grow rapidly.

The four of them walked up the mountain side by side along the steps.

Huang Sixi could no longer hear what they were talking about.

At this moment, Huang Sixi was galloping on the mountain road between the Qinling Mountains.

After walking for about half a day, he suddenly heard a burst of shouting and screaming, which frightened the foals so much that they stood up.

"Tai, I opened this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, you have to leave money to buy your way through!"

This tune is so familiar.

Huang Sixi thought to himself, Li Yan once said that the northern border was in chaos and there were strong men setting up their own tribes on any mountain. This was really true.

He looked forward and saw more than ten bandits blocking the road. However, they did not look like tough guys at all. They were holding sticks and hoes, and they looked very unsophisticated.

These bandits were dressed in rags, looked pale, and it seemed they had not had a full meal in many days.

Huang Sixi saw that they looked shabby, so he didn't attack them. Instead, he asked, "The government is suppressing the rebels and arresting bandits everywhere. You dare to commit crimes against the wind. Aren't you afraid of attracting the soldiers?"

The bandit leader replied, "If we are caught by the soldiers, we will die. If we die of starvation, we will also die. Apart from robbing, what else can we do? My dear, you look young and we don't want your life. Just leave your money and we will let you go!"

"If you want me to give up my money, you have to ask my brothers if they agree first!" Huang Sixi said jokingly.

"Yo hoo!"

The bandit leader was disdainful of his words. His minions had already noticed Huang Sixi from several miles away, and he had no companions at all: "Damn it, you still have brothers? Then call them out quickly, and let's compare and see whether you have more brothers or we have more swords!"

At this time, Huang Sixi had already started to practice Qigong by holding the bottle, and a buzzing sound soon spread among the woods in all directions.

The bandit leader was stunned: "What's this noise?"

He had just turned his head alertly when a swarm of wild bees swooped down towards him.

He was instantly covered by the swarm of bees. He screamed in fear and couldn't stop waving his knife around. He looked very funny, as if he was dancing.

"Damn it, you called me brothers, why did you call a group of bees to sting me?"

"These bees are my brothers. Are they enough?"

"Duoduoduo! Everyone, make way and let him pass! This man can use evil magic, let's not mess with him!"

The bandits had already been stung by the swarm of bees and scattered.

Huang Sixi laughed loudly and rode his horse forward.

When he ran out of the mountain pass in one breath, the swarm of bees still did not stop attacking.

The bandit leader shouted anxiously from behind: "Hey, that man, we have already given way to you, why don't you call your bee brothers away? Ah, it hurts so much, these bees are poisonous..."

Huang Sixi ignored him and just walked out of the mountain leisurely.

Sitting on the horse, Huang Sixi pondered: "This trip to the Tibetan border requires crossing the entire Sichuan and Shu. There are many mountains and vast forests in Sichuan, which is enough for me to find a bee colony suitable for raising. There is no need to waste time here."

As he thought this, he suddenly increased the speed of his horse and galloped towards the southwest.

He set out in September and arrived at the Tibetan border in mid-October.

The day ended at noon.

He was exhausted, leading a pony and carrying a beehive on his back, and strolled into a village.

This place is located on the border of Tibet. To the north is Sichuan and to the south is Yunnan. The climate is relatively mild and suitable for long-term settlement.

Huang Sixi had already inquired outside the village and found out that since the terrain leads to the snow-capped mountains on the Tibetan border, there are travelers who come to collect herbs staying there all year round, and the villagers in the village do not object to outsiders staying overnight.
