I estimated neither of them had expected someone who had only just entered the Dao to be so good at escaping. Both were surprised, but they still chased after me.
Although both of them had old arms and old legs, they were frighteningly fast. Whoosh after whoosh, they rapidly closed the distance. Seeing the chase, the people from the Miao village assumed I had stolen one of the Miao girls or something, and they came running out with hoes and sickles.
But the village chief and Miao Mama stopped them. Miao Xiaoli was shouting my name over there. How could I dare go back? I hurriedly prepared to use my footwork to vanish again.
But at that moment, my wife-sister tugged at the corner of my clothes, apparently thinking about some problem. Suddenly, a sharp pain exploded in my buttocks. Something that looked like an ant had bitten me!
In an instant, a fierce pain came from my backside and electrocuted me numb. I had finally met my match this time. This ant was probably of the same lineage as Africa's bullet ants!
Thud. I fell facedown on the ground, and my consciousness began to grow hazy.
Miao Xiaoli had already run to my side and asked worriedly how I was. The old couple watched me from nearby, muttering something under their breath. Fork Jin just now.
"Just now, this kid secretly pinched a spell. I knew he definitely wanted to borrow the power of the laws. What a sly one!" The old man dispersed the ghost gu, then pinched my shoulder and kneaded my body.
The old woman recalled a swarm of ants and flying insects. Smiling, she said, "This kid is incredibly good at escaping. Without the bullet-flying ants, we really couldn't have caught him. Impressive, very impressive."
