"When we encounter danger, this little bit of earth is naturally not enough. But among the five elements, earth is water, so we can't do anything without it. Each of us can bring a little bit of earth with us, and we might be able to avoid danger." Meng Xiaodie said.

Everyone followed Meng Xiaodie's instructions, each carrying a small bag of soil and hung it on their bodies. They arrived at the Floating Mist Street, which was very wide, but not long. There were about three to five shops on both sides with the words sorghum red winery, corn yellow winery, thyme winery, etc.

"So this street sells alcohol. I wonder if there's any wine in the shop. It's been a long time since I've had a drink, so I'm extremely greedy right now." When the green-eyed dwarf saw the tavern, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he immediately wanted to run inside.

Meng Xiaodie grabbed him, "What are you trying to do?"

"Drink wine, find wine to drink, Cao Mengde from ancient times once said that to drink wine like a song, one's life is limited. Our future is perilous, and we don't know when we'll be done for.

"I think you're not looking for a drink, you're looking for death." Meng Xiaodie said with a cold face.

"Isn't it just a winery? What can it do, drown me in wine? I was looking forward to it. "

"Don't be so blabbermouth, open the door first and take a look at the situation. Let me tell you, we have to be very careful at all times."

"Meng Xiaodie, I think you are too silly." Meng Xiaodie, I see that you are too silly.

Xu Dazhi and the green-eyed dwarf, one tall and one short, one burning with torches, one lightly pushing the door. The door creaked open and Xu Dazhi shone the torchlight into the room.

"There really is wine. It seems that the heavens are not unkind to me." The green-eyed dwarf stepped inside and reached for the lid of the wine vat.

He opened the lid and saw that it was filled to the brim with wine that was emitting a strong aroma.

"Good wine, good wine! As expected of the century-old sorghum, I am going to enjoy myself today!" The green-eyed dwarf picked up the wine bowl beside him and scooped up a bowl. Just as he was about to drink it, Meng Xiaodie chopped the bowl into two halves.

"You, Meng Xiaodie, what are you doing?" The green-eyed dwarf said angrily.

"Look at the ground."

The green-eyed dwarf looked down and was shocked. There were over a dozen black, sticky worms squirming on the ground.

"What is this?" The green-eyed dwarf asked in horror.

"This is the Liquor worm. You have to drink this bowl of wine. Once the Liquor worm enters your stomach, it will parasitize in your body and slowly eat your flesh. Unknowingly, you will become a pile of bones.

Shen Hong knew more about the Gu poison than Meng Xiaodie. She squatted down and used a silver needle to pry open the Liquor worm's stomach, finding a lot of millet like things inside, shocking her.

"If I'm not wrong, these Liquor worm are the king of the poison Gu. After they become adults, they reproduce very quickly, and this shop will soon be filled with these bugs. Even if we want to run, we cannot escape."

The green-eyed dwarf was scared to the point that he broke out in a cold sweat, "Then what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and run."

"I'm afraid it's too late." Shen Hong pointed at the other wine vats. The lids of the wine vats had already been opened. There was no wine left in them. All of them were squirming Liquor worm. They were piling up higher and higher and higher, exploding with a bang.

Run. It was unknown who shouted, but everyone quickly ran outside, afraid that they would be eaten by the Liquor worm if they were too slow.

Wei Ying was experienced in fire attacks. As he ran, he threw out two buckets of oil, then threw out the torch. The area behind him became a sea of fire as everyone ran into the street.

"Meng Xiaodie! Meng Xiaodie didn't run out!" Wei Ke shouted.

"This guy has been bestowed the title of a great hero for a generation. Not only is his reaction time slow, his escaping skills are also lacking." The green-eyed dwarf ridiculed.

"What should we do? Can we still go back and save him? " Wang Hai asked timidly. Meng Xiaodie had once saved his life, so he felt grateful towards her.

"Save, save, save your head! Let's go back now and die! Do you understand?" The green-eyed dwarf scolded Wang Hai loudly. Wang Hai looked at the people around him and lowered his head in silence.

She thought to herself, what's wrong with this Meng Xiaodie? Normally, he shouldn't be behind others, but he remembered that in Green Willow Street's Jupiter's Ancestral Mansion, Meng Xiaodie also didn't run upstairs, instead she blocked the green corpse and corpse worms for them below.

Now that she thought about it, she understood that the only reason everyone had been able to escape was because Meng Xiaodie had already stopped the Liquor worm. However, wasn't what he was doing just asking to die? Besides, there was a huge fire inside. Even if he wasn't eaten by the Liquor worm, he would be burned alive.

The green-eyed Dwarf felt his face turn red, and he let out a strange cry, cursing loudly, "His grandmother's foot! If I go in to save Meng Xiaodie, even if I get eaten by the Liquor worm, I'll still die from the alcohol!"

"Forget about it, it's not enough to get one, but you still have to give another dead body to the Earth Demon." Shen Hong scolded loudly.

"Then we'll just watch as Meng Xiaodie is eaten by the Liquor worm in vain?"

"It's too late even if I go in now. I'm afraid I won't even be able to find the bones." Hong Kun interjected. This was the first thing Hong Kun said after he returned to being a normal person. He originally didn't like Meng Xiaodie, but now that he didn't know whether she was dead or alive, he didn't know whether it was because he was happy or hurt.

There was a huge fire inside, and none of the bugs in the shop crawled out. Shen Hong thought it was strange, could it be that the mana of the Earth Devil was only in the shop, while on the streets, his mana was useless? It was very possible. But how would the black-masked man explain? The black-masked man had come out before, and their shadows when they first entered the castle. The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. She didn't want to think about it anymore, and only worried about Meng Xiaodie's safety.

The fire burned for a while, then slowly died down. Shen Hong was the first to run over. The entrance was dark and silent, but there was no sign of Meng Xiaodie. She called out a few times and was still quiet. Just as she was about to charge in, she saw a crowd of Liquor worm surrounding the entrance, scaring her to a halt.

She hesitated for a moment, thinking that Meng Xiaodie would not die so easily. If that was the case, then he was not Meng Xiaodie.

No one knew what was going on inside, Shen Hong thought. Just waiting here wasn't a solution, so she decided not to enter any more shops. Instead, she directly went to the end of the Piaomiao street to see if there was any ancestral hall that worshipped the divine beads.

As she led her brothers through the streets, they heard a buzzing sound coming from the shops on both sides. It sounded like a giant swarm of bees, but they didn't dare to stop. They kept moving forward, and the buzzing became louder and louder. Was the Liquor worm's voice that loud?
