Chapter Six: The Sting of the Blood Bee
Hello! Xiao Huo!
Just as many people prefer to go invisible on the chat tool QQ to avoid disturbances, in Shushan, there is also a mask provided by the system to prevent being recognized by enemies. It does not occupy an equipment slot and has no additional effects, yet it is exceptionally practical
However, this decision has finally made me realize how formidable I truly am. My goal is to reach Chengdu, the city closest to Qingcheng Mountain. Along the way, the monsters and demons emerge like bamboo shoots after a rain, surging forth one after another. If it weren't for the Blood Bee Sting, this magical artifact in my possession, I cannot imagine how many times I would have already perished.
After killing these two red-haired demons, I suddenly felt a warmth enveloping me, and after a surge of warmth, I was astonished to find that I had leveled up again.
Upon reaching the outskirts of Chengdu, my level increased rapidly, nearing level 15, and I had also cultivated the Qingcheng Sword Technique to the third layer. Now, every time I wield my sword to attack, I gain a 30% boost in power and a 30% boost in speed. Coupled with the sharpness of the Qingya Ghost Arrow, which has a sharpness rating of 39, each attack can inflict between 80 and 150 points of damage on monsters. The Ten Styles of Qingcheng Sword Technique have become second nature to me; each time I strike, the Qingya Ghost Arrow transforms into a six-foot-long eerie blue light, giving me a semblance of a sword immortal's demeanor. However, this flying sword exudes a sinister aura, appearing rather unseemly.
"A tattered hat conceals my face in the bustling market, a leaky boat carries wine as it drifts in midstream; I face the scorn of a thousand fingers with a cold glare, yet bow my head willingly to be a humble ox for the children." How is it that this poem by Master Lu Xun resonates so deeply with me
Looking into my own pocket, I found only fifty-six taels of silver and eight hundred copper coins. Reflecting on the arduous journey of earning this hard-earned money, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow. After struggling to suppress the thought of resorting to suicide for the sake of making money, I hurriedly pulled up my mask.
From Qingcheng Mountain to Chengdu, despite my desperate efforts, I did not acquire any magical treasures or flying swords. However, I did manage to change into a new set of clothes, which provided some additional defense. Fortunately, with the addition of this gourd blood bee sting, I barely managed to hold on until I reached Chengdu. Upon entering the city, I sold everything I could and immediately purchased five land deity talismans and books for returning to Chengdu.
The girl who held onto my collar is truly beautiful! However, speaking of which, I have seen a few extremely ugly men in Mount Shu, but there isn't a single female player who is unattractive. In real life, those creatively styled dragons are all stunningly beautiful in the game, leaving many real beauties feeling quite frustrated.
I swear! If that woman had reacted just a bit faster at the time, instead of using the fire talisman to attack, but had released the gourd blood bee stings first, I would have been stung to the point of looking like a pig's head, and then I would have died wronged.
I must say, as soon as I entered the North Gate of Chengdu, I encountered something quite interesting; I never expected that I would actually make it onto the list.
A wanted notice for a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect (attached photo). If anyone kills this person, with system video as evidence, they may receive a reward of ten thousand taels of silver from the Emei Sect's Mosquito.
I am truly unfortunate; these mosquitoes are incredibly wealthy! Ten thousand taels of silver is equivalent to one hundred taels of gold! Of course, this is all nonsense! The key point is that the gold from Mount Shu can be exchanged for Renminbi, which means that if someone kills me once, they can obtain one hundred yuan of the current currency of the People's Republic of China! This is a genuine equivalent, enough to buy two McDonald's family buckets! If I were quite brave and died a hundred times, that would amount to just over ten thousand yuan!

I must say, just a few days later, I regretted the decision to embark on this trek immensely. How could I have been so foolish! To avoid a few enemies in the game, I ended up putting myself in a difficult situation. Had I known, I would have been better off switching accounts to replay, as the level seven character at that time was not worth cherishing.
This blood bee sting is indeed a valuable treasure! Although it is somewhat sinister like the green fang ghost arrow, the key lies in the user... Ha! It seems I am not exactly a good person either
Blood Bee Sting, a type of magical artifact, is contained within a red jade gourd, a specialty of Kunlun. The equipment requirement is level 6. It has an attack speed of 30 to 45, damage of 1 to 5, and demon power of 20 to 25, along with a vitality of 5. It can release a large number of blood bees to attack enemies. The blood bees are hidden within the gourd and require fresh blood for sustenance daily, automatically breeding one new bee each day. If all blood bees are killed, they cannot continue to breed. The maximum breeding capacity of blood bees is 108. When struck by a blood bee, a brief paralysis will occur.
The belt dropped by the female player from Emei is an item that can be used for storage, containing only a small and adorable red gourd inside
I wielded the Qingcheng Sword Technique to control the Qingya Ghost Arrow. With a single move, "Cang Song Welcomes Guests," I dealt significant damage to one of the red-haired ghosts. Following that, I executed the move "Chaos Clouds Parting the Sky," which immediately inflicted severe injury on another red-haired ghost while simultaneously killing the first one, whose health was already nearly depleted. Before I could unleash a third move, the remaining red-haired ghost was sent to the afterlife under the relentless stings of the Blood Bees.
I secretly felt pleased and somewhat proud as I equipped the Blood Bee Sting in the artifact slot. The most remarkable aspect of this artifact is not its attack power, but rather that once released, the swarm of blood bees will automatically attack the enemies without consuming any mana.
Xiao Huo! Please don't blame me anymore. I was wrong last time. Can we not break up?
In Shushan, each time a character dies, they not only lose 5% of their current experience m from hetushu.com, but also randomly drop their equipped items, and lose 5 points of lifespan. After creating a character in Shushan, depending on their innate attributes, they possess a lifespan ranging from 200 to 350 points. As their cultivation improves, their lifespan will also increase, gaining 5 points for each level up. Once the lifespan is exhausted, the character will naturally perish, and all data will be reset to zero.

In the desolate wilderness, there are many demons and spirits. Having acquired a new magical artifact, I was eager to test my skills. Suddenly, two red-haired demons floated over. I swiftly clapped my hand on the red jade gourd, and over a hundred blood bees immediately surged forward, trapping the two red-haired demons.
Walking down the streets of Chengdu, I feel as if everyone is out to get me. I haven't done anything morally wrong! Even if I killed those two players, it was they who attacked me first. I don't even have a single point of negative virtue! This clearly shows how pure and kind-hearted I am
Suddenly, a soft little hand grabbed my clothing, startling me to the point where I almost reacted instinctively. Fortunately, my ears were still sharp, and I heard the other party's address, so I quickly denied, saying: "Miss, I am not Xiao Huo, you have mistaken the person!"
