Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 453 Siguniang Mountain ([-])
453 Chapter 453 Siguniang Mountain (Thirteen)

This passage was much wider than the previous one. When we walked about ten meters in, we saw that there were also clusters of black hairy fungi growing in this passage.

As we continued walking inside, the growth of the black hyphae in front of us became more and more exaggerated, from a few scattered clumps to scattered everywhere. The black hairy fungi were distributed irregularly around us, making it like we were walking on thin ice every step we took.

Not only do we have to avoid the mycelium under our feet, we also have to be careful of the drooping tops of our heads. The long black threads hanging down are so low that taller people can be swept up to their heads and faces. The only thing you can do is avoid touching them as much as possible.

Continuing forward, we also found a translucent flocculent white silk network covering the black mycelium. Judging from the appearance, it should be some kind of spider's web. The web was very densely woven, like It looked like stretched thin silk cotton. With the wind brought by us as we walked, the thin white silk net fluttered and trembled with waves, and it would touch us at any time.

Going further, we saw a lot of dark and furry things hanging precariously in the air at the top of the cave. Some were hanging horizontally, and some were hanging vertically. Those were Some cocoon-shaped objects were wrapped and entangled with black mycelium and hung in mid-air. Almost each one was more than one meter in size. It felt like the thing had some weight. I didn’t know what was wrapped inside, but it looked like it. Quite permeable.

The surface of these giant black cocoons are also covered with a lot of white silk netting. Walking under them makes me feel very uneasy, for fear that something will fall from the top of my head.

At this time, the black smoke has spread over, and it feels like a layer of stuff is covering my eyes. My vision is getting blurry and blurry, and I can see things in a hazy way. I don’t know if everyone is like this or it’s just me.

As we walked along, we always felt that the ground under our feet was wet and sticky, and it felt like it was sucking our feet. At the same time, we also found that just above our heads, there were drops of translucent liquid pulling on the long threads. When it came down, the liquid began to fall, and the liquid dripped onto people's faces, and someone began to ask: "What is this?"

This stuff also dripped onto my clothes. It looked like big snot and had a strong earthy smell.

I heard that spiders are actually poisonous. The venom glands of spiders are used to paralyze insects and small animals. Most of them have no effect on humans. Spiders generally do not attack humans. They only attack when they realize that they are about to be harmed. When the time comes, they will attack, so as long as you don't touch the spider, you should not be bitten, but who knows whether the gatekeeper spiders in the caves for thousands of years will have violent tendencies.

A drop of "Bata" fell on Qi Tiezui's forehead. He raised his hand to wipe it off, then covered his mouth and nose and looked up. Then another drop of "Bata" fell on his hand. He smelled it. After sniffing it, he said disgustedly and warily: "This slime is disgusting, it can't be poisonous." He waved his hand aside.

Gou Wuye said: "I don't know if it's poisonous or not, but it looks like mucus secreted by animals."

Qi Tiezui let out a disgusted "Eh" and said, "It's really disgusting, but there are so many spider webs. Are they vomited by spiders? There are no spiders."

Zhang Rishan said: "Why, do you still want to see me?"

Qi Tiezui said: "Haha, I don't want to. I don't know anything else. Just look at the net. The small one is as big as half a person. Look at the big one. It looks like a quilt. That thing is definitely not good. The stubble, we can’t protect ourselves from the cannibals.”

Not long after he finished speaking, Zhang Rishan suddenly shouted: "Be careful." He grabbed his arm and threw him against the mountain wall.

Qi Tiezui said "Ouch" and tilted his body and hit the mountain wall. There were black fungi and spider webs on the mountain wall. He immediately jumped up and shouted: "Zhang Rishan, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he squinted his eyes and saw a fat spider as big as his hand lying on the white silk web of the black silk cocoon just above his head where he had just stood, staring at it. he.

He said: "What kind of spider is this? Why is it so green?"

He watched the spider's legs tremble and make jumping movements, as if preparing to pounce. The spider's mouth was secreting translucent mucus, but this time the mucus was not dripping slowly, but like a watering can. It stained towards him.

I heard my brother say: "Let's go quickly."

Gou Wuye pushed him and said, "Let's go, don't stand still, I didn't see it falling in love with you. If you don't leave, it will bite you." Qi Tiezui hurriedly followed the team.

We left with our front legs, and the spider with its hind legs swished down from the hanging net in mid-air, pulling a long thread down. Immediately afterwards, we heard the sound of crawling insect legs around us getting louder and louder. The more there are, the more dense the rhythm becomes.

Not far away, huge spiders kept hanging down from the top of his head, just in front of Qi Tiezui. He took a breath of cold air, shrank his neck, twisted his body, staggered his position to avoid it, and stared at the top of the spider. Looking around, he said: "The spiders here are a bit too big."

Gou Wuye smiled and said: "The palm size is probably considered normal. I think these are just for the descendants."

Qi Tiezui said helplessly: "I said Fifth Master, please don't scare me all the time."

Gou Wuye said: "I think these things like you very much. If they attack, I might as well sacrifice you. Maybe it will be of some use." "Fifth Master, you..." Qi Tiezui was a little bit dumbfounded and couldn't speak. look.

I have always had a problem with things with many legs, and just hearing their descriptions made my heart beat wildly with uneasiness, and I thought to myself that I should never come here.

The black smoke was already very thick at this time. Originally, the light source of the flashlight was still very dazzling when looking directly at it, but now it seems that the beam of the flashlight looks blurry. It looks like a ball of light from a distance away from us. As we move around, the light The ball swayed like a will-o'-the-wisp.

This little light has reached the point where it cannot penetrate the darkness in the cave. Without these light balls, it would be really hard to see anything here.

In this extreme darkness, even if we are alert to the surrounding situation, there are still many things that have reached a point where we cannot easily control them. We don’t understand the spiders here, and we don’t know what the consequences will be if we touch them. At this moment, it’s not just me. Even the professionals at the back of the team felt uneasy.

Unknowingly, a large number of spiders gathered towards us from all directions, and we were surrounded unknowingly. The surrounding darkness made it impossible for us to confirm where there were spiders around us. Some people seemed to have accidentally encountered those spiders. .

Soon, something unfortunate happened. Maybe they wanted to get rid of the spider, or maybe they didn't even realize that the spider had jumped on them. There were screams again and again, and there were panicked people around them. Bewildered shouts echoed in the passage, and everyone fell into commotion again.

After being bitten by the spider, their wounds quickly began to rot, causing severe pain like burning fire, and some people kept falling to the ground and struggling.

Someone said: "Head, head, help me get it down."

But when another person carefully lifted something to help fight away the spider, the spider had already waved its long iron chopstick-like legs and stabbed into the person's scalp with a steady and hard blow, and blood instantly flowed out. It flowed down the forehead to the cheek. When the man's face was full of fear, the spider bit him without mercy.

As the blood flowed out, the black hair fungus naturally refused to be left alone. It rushed towards the bleeding person, quickly found the location of the wound, and mercilessly penetrated into the person's body, growing rapidly.

We found that the spiders here like to hug human heads, so we reminded each other to protect our heads, keep our bodies low, and leave here as soon as possible. However, the situation did not get better because of this. This spider hung down by the silk and caught the hair. You couldn't feel it at all at first, and by the time it hugged you and clasped its eight legs tightly around your head, it was already too late.

The spider also came over and pounced on my brother and I, but my brother noticed it quickly. After he noticed the thing pounced on his head, he cut his palm open and slapped a bloody slap on the top of my head. Not to mention that the spider did not dare to come over. The black hair fungus also dare not touch our special blood.

As soon as the spider came close to us, my brother swung it with his knife, and then there was a "bang" sound. It felt like the knife had struck a metal lump. I didn't expect that the spider's body was so hard, but it still couldn't hide from my brother. knife.

Suddenly, I felt like something hit my shoulder, and then immediately grabbed me. There was something thin like a steel needle poking my flesh. I knew that this must be a spider holding me. It was stunned. There was a protective layer on its head and it didn't dare to touch it. This one was very timid, and I even thought of a different plan to attack him.

I looked around me. My brother was rescuing people. The blurry white figure of Brother Bai Hao and the blue figure of Sister Liyue seemed to be beating spiders without paying attention to me. I can't help but use some more poison now. This spider Must be thrown away.

The fist on my shoulder was so big that it was considered a small one. I seemed to have no time to draw the sword. I thought to myself, if I startled it with too much movement, it wouldn't bite me down, so I had to quietly put my spiritual power on both fingers. With his fingertips and thumbs, he rubbed the two fingers wrapped with spiritual sources, bent the movable joints a few times, and quickly got ready to take action. He flexed his fingers and poked the thing on his shoulder.

Don't mention it, this thing is so hard that it didn't even open when I clicked on it. This is simply a provocation to the spider and is an extremely dangerous approach. Naturally, I was prepared and quickly used my spiritual power to hit its hard shell. I dug my finger in, and then quickly threw the spider out. The fishy, ​​smelly, metallic-smelling bug water from the spider flowed out of my hand. I was so disgusted that I immediately started to retching.

After retching for a few times, I found another one that was not afraid of death crawling towards me from my feet. I raised my foot and kicked one away, poked another one away with my fingers, and another one climbed on my back. I was in trouble, I couldn't get it, so I shouted in panic: "Brother."

Zhang Qiling immediately shouted: "Don't move." Then he stepped over to the girl's side, twisted the girl's body away from him with one hand, and then slashed her with a knife. The spider on the girl's back was hit like a baseball. flew out.

At this moment, there were a few more hanging down from the top of the head. They were much bigger than the ones just now. The body alone was as big as a football. If the legs were spread out, the length would be almost two meters. Zhang Qiling grabbed the girl and they rolled together to the passage. edge.

Turning around again, about four or five big ones had already slid down, and some were already dangling with their long legs and were about to pounce.

Brother Bai Hao and sister Liyue both saw what was happening on our side, so they flew over and stopped one each. Two of them pounced on my brother and me. The brother grabbed one's leg with one hand and swung it towards the stone wall. It hit him upwards, and the other one clasped his arm, but was soon frightened by the blood on his palm, and shrank back. At this time, his brother stabbed his body with a knife from top to bottom. The guy let out insect water all over the ground, but it wasn't dead yet. My brother pulled out the knife with his backhand. This one broke into two pieces with a "squeak" and fell to the ground with a "snap". .

I had the impression that four or five of them had just come down, and it seemed that one more had gone somewhere. I turned my head to look for it, and suddenly, a long, slender leg with black hair stood up in front of my eyes, followed closely. Two legs, three legs, four legs... I felt like I was locked in a cage. There were ugly vertical bars in front of me, but I knew these were spider legs, so I looked up.

A drop of semi-transparent viscosity just fell on my face, and I turned pale. This spider was actually bigger than me. It was covering my head like a mountain weighing down on me, and its two petals were trembling. The spider's mouth was drooling above my head.
