18 The Insect Rearer (2/2)

Mo Wen silently sighed, feeling helpless. If it had been in front of the miracle physician, Mo Wen, from the other lifetime, a Blue and White Flower Chicken King Python would be captured in the palm of one hand.

Now, even casually blocking the blow had injured his hand. Moreover, he had attacked the vital section of the Blue and White Flower Chicken King Python. Although the injury was not serious, it was sufficient evidence that he was not a match for the Blue and White Flower Chicken King Python in front of him.

Even though his Heavenly Hand was sharp enough, that was with regards to human anatomy. In the context of the Blue and White Flower Chicken King Python, he did not have a deep understanding of its anatomy.

Mo Wen knew that with the Blue and White Flower Chicken King Python keeping guard, his plans of exploring the room were5 foiled. In a fit of helplessness, he could only briefly glance through the arrangement of the room and found that it was not much different from other normal rooms.

However, the entire room was crawling with all sorts of venomous things. On the ground, walls, tabletop, and bed. They were all so tightly packed together that it was impossible to count exactly how many there were. Since the doors and windows had been tightly shut with the curtains drawn, the lighting in the room was dim and Mo Wen could not specifically see what types of poisons there were, and whether or not there were any precious treasures.

That's right; the room was currently a big treasure trove in Mo Wen's eyes. Not to mention, the many other precious weird creatures. Just the Blue and White Flower Chicken King Python alone was far more valuable than the Golden Threaded Cobra. Moreover, there were still other poisons that were very treasured items.

Just as Mo Wen was preparing to retreat from the room, a low voice suddenly rang out from behind him.

”Hey—curiosity killed the cat, so don't just look around so casually.”

It was unclear when a youth, who was of a rather short stature, suddenly stood behind Mo Wen. This person was only about 5 feet and 4 inches tall, and his body figure was normal, but a little ugly and even boorish. However, he gave off a rather cold aura. It was a very odd combination.

One thing was for certain however, and that was the fact that such a style was difficult to be favored by the vain girls. Although Mo Wen was also average looking, he was not that drastic.

”Hey there, I'm Mo Wen, a freshman this year.”

Mo Wen smiled and gave a friendly look to the youth. He did not have biases against people's looks, as he did not judge people by their appearances. People who dared to appear in this dormitory were not as simple as they might've seemed.

”It's actually quite surprising that there are people who dare enter this dormitory. Good luck to you then. Oh right, and my room doesn't like outsiders entering it.”

The ugly youth looked at Mo Wen, a little surprised, and seemingly did not have any intention of introducing himself. He simply stepped out and entered his room.

”Ow!”

An unusually sharp exclamation suddenly came out of the youth's mouth. In the next instant, all the venomous insects that had congregated together were swarming into the room like a gush of water which scared Mo Wen so much that he hurriedly retreated and made way.

In the blink of an eye, all the venomous insects in the main room had cleared out. Not one remained, as they had all swarmed into the ugly youth's room.

”My darlings, you all sneakily ran out the moment I forgot to close my door. What if you got spotted by bad people and became squished to death? You never learn.”

The ugly youth cradled a few large, snow-white spiders. His face was one of tender love as he reprimanded, as if he was talking to his lover.

The edges of Mo Wen's lips twitched a few times, as he finally understood why such a scarily huge number of venomous insects were under this youth's care. Was he an insect rearer?

From his memory of the past lifetime, there was indeed a profession as an insect rearer where they specialized in rearing all kinds of odd, venomous insects and were very proficient in the techniques of rearing and cultivating them.

However, insect rearers were not commonly seen, and their dispositions were a little weird. They were not sociable and liked to live in very desolate places. Normal people did not even know about this kind of people, lest met them before.

Yet, it was not unfamiliar to Mo Wen. Back in those years, he had braved through rough terrains and often had activities deep in the mountains and forests, which allowed him to meet quite a few insect rearers. Moreover, with the Mo clan passing down their medical techniques, even though he did not know the technique of insect rearing, he was even more knowledgeable than insect rearers about the uses of the various venomous insects. Hence, he had actually had multiple exchanges with insect rearers.
