Entomologist in Sichuan Tang Clan Chapter 264

264
-Ts, tskit!?

At Cho’s question, the boy in front of him was startled and let out a cry.

Then the guy starts to flinch and take steps back.

I guess I felt scared.

As Choga, who was getting more and more proud of the guy, moved forward slightly to pressure him, Hyang-i’s voice was heard to stop him.

-Tsurut! “Sister, be careful! That guy’s gonna sting you with his butt!”

-Tsururur? 『With your butt?』

-Tch! 『Yeah! I moved my butt and shot the poison!』

It seemed okay since there was still some distance, but when he was about to approach, he stopped in his tracks at the words of the fragrant girl.

And I kept my distance from the guy and observed his appearance carefully.

A small head and antennae, and a round, plump body.

Looking at her round body, which reminded me of the torso of a fairy, she definitely looked like she would shoot something with her butt like a fairy.

It didn’t look like it would spit out poison from its small mouth, and it looked like it might be filling its large, round body with poison like a demon girl filling it with thread.

In that case, you had to be careful.

You shouldn’t approach it rashly since you don’t know the distance at which it can shoot its poison.

After thinking about it for a moment, Cho decided that he would have to use pressure to make the guy submit.

Cheongwol was trying to make him submit by showing off her big figure like her older sister, so that he would not be embarrassed in front of his younger siblings if she used poison on him.

Because I don’t want my sister’s authority, which I’ve worked so hard to gain, to collapse.

‘Churut. ‘I can’t be embarrassed in front of my younger siblings.’

The grasshopper turned its body sideways and moved its body in a meandering motion in the air.

He showed off his large body and asked again with his tentacles pointed towards the guy.

-Tsuru “You’re asking me if I poisoned my little brother?”

Then, just as Cho had thought, the guy got even more scared and cowered.

Trembling antennae and trembling eyes.

Even the shell was shaking.

‘Have you seen that, little sisters? This is the pressure of my older sister.’ With this kind of feeling, I looked at my two little sisters who were climbing onto the thatched roof with haughty eyes.

-Prrrrrr!

When he suddenly heard something trembling, he hurriedly turned his head, and saw that the trembling creature’s shell had opened and wings had popped out, and in an instant, it was flying right in front of Cho’s nose.

I thought it was shaking in fear, but it seemed like it was trying to take out the wings it had hidden inside its shell.

-Tch! 『This guy!?』

It was when Cho was startled by the sight of the guy suddenly flying up as if he was pounced on, that he quickly lifted his body up and moved backwards.

-Phew.

A loud noise was heard as white smoke poured out of the guy’s butt.

As Hyang-i said, a large cloud of white smoke rose from the guy’s buttocks and covered the three of them.

The smoke suddenly surged in and the embers quickly wrapped themselves in their arms.

Then, a hot air and a foul smell covered the bark of the grass.

-Tsuru? Tsuru? “Are you okay, guys?”

When I asked my younger siblings in my arms, they quickly nodded their heads.

-Tsururur? “Where’s your sister?”

-Smell, smell. “My, smell.”

Only after Cho had been covered in the guy’s poison on his body could he understand what Hongdan meant by “tingling.”

Yes, it was like when you get close to a burning campfire, and after the hot feeling subsided, my skin felt a slight tingling sensation.

It was clear that the guy’s venom was as hot as fire.

-Tsururut. “I’m fine!”

I told my worried younger siblings that it was okay, and when I turned my head to check on the safety of my younger siblings in my arms, there was this guy flying far away.

You dare to rush in first, shoot poison, and run away?

Just like when he heard the sound of Hongdan being hit by a lightning bolt, a sharp ghostly aura came out again.

He said this while placing the incense sticks and the red peppers on the ground.

-Tsrrrr. “You guys go to Bin-i for now. Sister won’t leave that guy alone!”

And then it immediately flew up and started chasing the guy.

I couldn’t miss that guy.

-Tsurut! “Sister! You have to wash the poison in water!”

-Kkii! 『Big sister! You have to wash off the poison!』

The cries of Hyang-i and Bin-i, who had been placed on the floor, followed the distant candles.

***

The guy is already flying far away, flapping his wings.

The distance was already far, but every time the guy flapped his wings, they sparkled in the moonlight, revealing his location.

Cho followed the guy quietly, and as they passed over the puddles that appeared here and there, he quickly dozed and pulled himself out, just as his brothers had said.

It was to wash away the poison.

Let’s chase after it for a while while washing its body like that. It seems like it can’t fly far, so it flies a little and lands.

The guy who got down in the grass checked the sky, so Cho quickly got down and hid in the grass for a while.

Then, the guy thought he was relieved and started licking his antennae right there.

It seems like he thinks he’s completely ignored me.

But he couldn’t let his guard down, because he hadn’t even folded his wings yet and was already grooming his antennae.

At that sight, Cho considered dropping a large branch of a nearby tree on the guy’s head.

When you get close, it spits out poison, so I thought it might be a good idea to drop something and hit it.

‘-Tsurut. ‘It would be nice if there were rocks, but there are no rocks around.’

But then the guy’s unfolded wings catch my eye.

At that sight, Choga turned his head around and quickly jumped into a nearby pond.

And then he flew up carrying a handful of mud.

That guy is also a spirit.

The idea was to get its wings wet with mud so that it wouldn’t get seriously hurt even if the branch fell, and prevent it from escaping.

It would be better to bury it so that it can’t emit poison.

A candle flew over the guy’s head, filling the center of his body with sticky mud.

As a few small clumps of mud dripped from the body of the first creature and fell on the head of the creature that was busy losing its antennae, the creature looked up at its own head.

It seemed like he was trying to figure out why mud was suddenly falling from the sky, but what he saw was not grass, but mud falling on his head.

-Thud. Thud.

-Phew.

A guy who has covered himself in a lump of fallen mud.

The guy’s groomed antennae, face, and wings were covered in mud.

When the grasshopper felt that its appearance was very delicious, strangely enough, the guy was startled when he got hit by the mud and started spewing out poison.

‘Tsurut!?’

The moment he saw that sight, a good idea came to Cho’s mind.

Poison is something that requires a lot of energy to make.

Moreover, the amount of any poison is fixed.

Because Cheongwol was like that too, and Yohwa was like that too.

So if I just spray it like that, the poison will wear off quickly and I’ll be able to beat up that little guy.

A non-poisonous one is a very easy opponent.

The grass immediately went back and forth between the nearby puddle and the guy’s head, continuously dumping mud on the fleeing guy.

It wasn’t hard to throw mud at the bird, which had just crashed while trying to fly up again, as the first mud had soaked its wings enough.

-puck.

-Pfft.

-Thud thud.

-Phew. Pfft.

A guy who keeps spitting out poison every time a lump of mud falls on his head.

Not long after the acrid smell had engulfed the surroundings, the venom spurting from the guy’s butt began to noticeably decrease.

The poison that had been spurting out in profusion began to come out in a hissing manner.

-Pfft. Pick.

After a while.

The boy smiled inwardly at the sight of the boy and repeated the same action a few more times, until the boy stopped spewing venom.

It feels like I’ve used up almost all the poison just as I thought.

The grasshopper, slowly descending, spoke proudly.

-Tsk tsk. “You’re going to get scolded today.”

-Ts, Tsuki···.

A guy with mud all over his head, his tentacles stuck to the back of his head, and one eye looking at the grass.

The boy begged for forgiveness for his mistake, but the girl who approached him quickly wrapped him up.

-Tsuki!

-PC food···.

As the creature’s body wrapped around him, he screamed and tried to spit out his venom again, but it was already used up, and instead of venom, his butt let out a tired squelching sound.

-Tsuru! 『Now I can’t just sit still without Dokdo!?』

-Tsuki···.

A guy who becomes quiet after being scolded once.

The capture was complete.

-Tsrrrr!

The roar of the gun that caught the guy echoed through the night sky.

***

Cho decided to head towards where his younger siblings were waiting, with his arms wrapped around the guy.

The destination is the entrance to the swamp.

I told Hyang-i and Hong-dan-i to go to Bin-i, so they’ll all be there.

The tentacles of the candle aimed at the younger siblings were gently curved like a bow.

Since I was able to catch something my siblings couldn’t, I was wasting my strength on the feelers.

The younger sisters’ respect for their older sister will continue from now on.

So I flew across the moonlit sky towards where Bin-i was.

After flying for a while, I arrived at the beginning of a swamp near the river, and I noticed my brothers gathered below and looking around.

-Tsuru! “It’s Sister!”

-Tsurut!? 『Where!?』

Bin is the first to discover the candles floating in the night sky and tell the other children about it.

The crow slowly descended to the ground and threw the caught creature in front of the three.

-Thud. Degurururuk.

As the round guy rolled across the grass and landed in front of the three, the younger siblings flinched and stepped back.

-Tsurut! 『Poison! Poison!』

-Kkiit! 『Eek!』

Perhaps he was startled by the guy’s poison, but Cho smiled and said.

-Tsk tsk. “Don’t worry, the poison has already been used up.”

Then Bin, Hyang, and Hongdan shouted excitedly.

-Tsrrrr! “Sister, you’re amazing!”

-Tsuru! “Sister, you’re cool!”

-Kkii! “Sister, you’re the best!”

At the words of the three, the first one raised his antennae arrogantly and spoke casually.

-Tsururur, “It was nothing special.”

Then, the younger siblings looked at Cho with eyes full of respect.

Choga spoke to Hongdan in an arrogant voice.

-Tsurut. “Hongdan-ah, you shoot poison at this guy too. You dare shoot poison at my little brother. You deserve to suffer the same thing, you punk.”

-Kkii! “Okay!”

Hong Dan, who was excited by the first words, bent over and pointed the incense burner on the boat towards him.

Hongdan-i wouldn’t be sad if it was a smelly poison.

-Kkii! 『I asked who you were, and you shot poison. You should get scolded too!』

It was when Hong Dan-i was about to shout out loud and spew venom.

-Rust. Rustle.

Suddenly, the grass near the pirate village seemed to move, and an unexpected person appeared.

Black hair like ebony and red clothes.

It was my mom.

The four were startled by the appearance of their mother, the person they least expected to be caught.

The four of them screamed at the sight of their mother emerging from the grass in the darkness.

-Tsuru! “Hey, Mom!?”

-Tsurut! 『How is Mom!?』

-Kkii! 『Eek!』

-Tiring. Tiring.

But the sound of bells and the appearance of a spider’s body made the four of them sigh in relief.

Because it wasn’t my mom, it was my fairy sister.

-Tsurur···. “Oh, so that’s the fairy sister?”

As the leader of the four spoke, sweeping his chest, the fairy sister who came closer asked the four.

-Kissit? “What are you guys doing all gathered here? I followed you because you kept going out at night for a few days… What is this!?”

-Tsk tsk. “Sister, that’s why······.”

When Choga quickly explained the circumstances, Yohwa nodded.

Because Yohwa is a good older sister, she understands the four of them’s circumstances, unlike Mom.

But he tilted his head and said, looking at the round guy in the middle of the net, shaking.

-Kishishi? 『But isn’t this the book you’re looking for?』

The guy my dad said he’d catch if it was Seogwa.

Could that guy be the guy my dad is looking for? I asked the little fairy while thinking the same thing.

-Tsururut. “Sister, is this the guy you’re looking for? Isn’t the fruit red?”

-Kissit. “Ah, that’s what comes out when you cut the fruit, and it’s originally just a round shape with stripes.”

-Tsurut? 『Really!?』

-Kishi. “Yeah. But he’s a little different. I don’t know if that’s right… I have to show you this kind of thing. “

The five of them looked at the guy in the middle and fell into thought.

***

A faint smell wafting from somewhere in the early morning hours.

When I came to my senses and checked the direction of the smell, I saw a large, dust mite-like creature writhing around on its belly near me.

“Who are you?”

It was a strange thing.
