Chapter 379: Take Your Time to Speak

After all, this was an open area where wild beasts could appear at any moment.

Mo Jiuye scanned the surroundings and spotted a small cave entrance.

"Sixth Brother, let's carry them inside."

Not only the Eldest Brother and Second Brother, but also the unconscious Third Brother and Liang Hao needed to be carried in.

Only by ensuring their safety could Mo Jiuye feel at ease to remove the parasites from his two elder brothers.

In front of the cave, there was no moss or weeds on the ground, indicating that people frequently entered and exited here.

Inside the cave, there were two stone slabs as large as single beds, polished smooth without any edges.

Moreover, the Eldest Brother and Second Brother had rushed towards them from this direction, confirming that this was where they had lived for many years.

The simplicity was evident; the stone slabs were bare with no bedding, and there were no clean clothes inside the cave.

This could be confirmed by the tattered and worn-out clothes of the Eldest and Second Brothers.

White animal bones littered the ground of the cave, piled up haphazardly, showing that no one had taken care of them.

From these details, it was clear how inhumanely the Eldest and Second Brothers had lived for so many years.

Without much thought, Mo Jiuye called Sixth Brother over to place the Eldest and Second Brothers on the two stone slabs.

He did not rush to remove the parasites from his elder brothers. After all, his wife would always use advanced instruments from her space to detect their positions before performing surgery.

This method ensured accurate positioning of the parasites, preventing any surgical errors.

However, under the current circumstances, such conditions did not exist.

Although Mo Jiuye could determine the approximate location of the parasites, he dared not act rashly.

Once the parasites within the host sensed danger, they would flee to other parts of the body, leading to a failed extraction.

To more accurately locate the parasites, Mo Jiuye took out the small porcelain bottle containing the mother parasite that he had obtained from Mr. Si Meng.

He could not determine which parasite controlled the ones in his brothers' bodies, so he gently shook each one.

As soon as the mother parasite moved slightly in the bottle, the corresponding parasite in the host would also move.

Mo Jiuye and Sixth Brother worked together, each watching one brother's arm.

He then cautiously shook one of the bottles.

Soon, a noticeable bulge appeared on the Second Brother's arm.

A pea-sized lump could be seen moving under his skin.

Mo Jiuye, having determined the location of the parasite, immediately handed a porcelain bottle to Sixth Brother.

"Sixth Brother, once you see the parasite, quickly put it into the bottle."

Sixth Brother nodded solemnly, holding the bottle and watching his brother's actions closely.

Mo Jiuye swiftly cut a shallow incision on the Second Brother's arm.

A black parasite appeared before the brothers.

Sixth Brother did not hesitate, quickly capturing the emerging parasite in the bottle.

Mo Jiuye carefully disinfected and stitched the wound, though his stitching skills were not great, the results were effective.

Using the same method, Mo Jiuye found the mother parasite controlling the Eldest Brother, shook it, and accurately located the parasite within him before performing the surgery.

After everything was done, Mo Jiuye was sweating profusely.

He reassured Sixth Brother.

"The parasites have been removed from the Eldest and Second Brothers. They will wake up once the effects of the sedative wear off."

Calculating the time, he had used the sedative on his brothers about half an hour ago. If nothing went wrong, they should wake up soon.

Observing the condition of the Eldest and Second Brothers, they were extremely thin, barely more than skin and bones, and their faces looked much older than he remembered.

Especially the Eldest Brother, who had a long scar above his forehead.

However, compared to the Fourth and Seventh Brothers, their situation was much better, at least without severe physical injuries.

While Mo Jiuye was carefully observing the Eldest and Second Brothers, he suddenly heard a slight noise behind him.

He and Sixth Brother turned around simultaneously and saw that the Third Brother had opened his eyes slightly.

Perhaps due to the residual toxins in his body, his eyes looked swollen.

"Third Brother, you're awake?" Mo Jiuye and Sixth Brother squatted down in front of him.

Seeing his brothers, the Third Brother was initially unsure if it was real.

He rubbed his uncomfortable eyes and looked at them again.

"Sixth Brother, Ninth Brother, where are we?"

"Third Brother, we are currently in the Small Hill of the Western Region."

Hearing this, the Third Brother's hazy consciousness began to return.

Seeing him struggling to sit up, Mo Jiuye and Sixth Brother supported him from either side.

"Third Brother, don't worry; speak slowly."

Third Brother first looked around and saw that Liang Hao and the others were lying not far from him, all unconscious.

There were also two people lying on those stone slabs, their appearances indiscernible, looking like beggars.

"Sixth Brother, Ninth Brother, how are Liang Hao and the others?"

He did not recognize his two elder brothers at this moment; his primary concern was naturally for his good brothers who had faced danger with him.

"Third Brother, don't worry. Liang Hao and the others have already taken the antidote. They should wake up soon."

Hearing Ninth Brother say this, Third Brother finally felt relieved.

He then asked, "Why are you here? Weren't you hurt by the poisonous creatures on the Sixth Hill?"

Thinking about the poisonous creatures they encountered after entering the Sixth Hill, Third Brother still felt a lingering fear.

If it weren't for their superior martial arts skills and their timely retreat to the trees, they would have become a feast for those scorpions and toads.

Mo Jiuye knew that Third Brother's experience with Liang Hao and the others on the Sixth Hill must have been similar to his and Sixth Brother's.

However, he and Sixth Brother had items prepared by their wives to protect them, so they were not injured.

Third Brother and the others did not have such thorough preparations; it was fortunate that they managed to survive until he came to rescue them.

To prevent Third Brother from worrying, Mo Jiuye briefly recounted how they went to the Imperial City to capture Mr. Si Meng and then came here to search for their father and brothers.

After hearing this, Third Brother's gaze immediately fell on the eldest and second brothers, who were still unconscious on the stone slabs.

"Ninth Brother, are they the eldest brother and second brother?"

Mo Jiuye nodded solemnly. "Fortunately, we accomplished our mission. As soon as we arrived here, the eldest and second brothers appeared. However, they were also under the control of Mr. Si Meng's puppet poison and had no consciousness. I could only temporarily render them unconscious and remove the poison."

"Now that the poison has been removed from the eldest and second brothers, they should wake up soon."

Third Brother, moved, grabbed Mo Jiuye's arm and, with his support, prepared to stand up.
