After the immortal disappeared

There was a guard on the slope who drew his knife more and more slowly, as if he couldn't even lift his arm. Finally, he couldn't withstand the pull of several spiders' webs and was pulled out of the crowd in one fell swoop.

His companions were unable to rescue him and watched helplessly as he fell down the slope and was instantly submerged by the black tide of spiders.

The shrill scream didn't last long, but it seemed to echo endlessly in everyone's heart, making them panic.

He Lingchuan's heart moved. Tigers and wolves can kill people by biting their vitals, but spiders can bite people with one bite. How did this patrolman die so quickly?

Judging from the way he was swaying, it didn't look like exhaustion, but more like poisoning.

There are indeed many species of spiders that are highly venomous.

The guide trembled: "Why are these burrowing spiders so crazy?"

The amount of information contained in this statement was quite large. Liu Tong asked him: "Do they usually live here?"

"Yes, yes." The guide's voice was like a gnat, completely drowned out by the movement on the slope. Only the two people standing closest could hear it. "We never interfere with each other."

"Is there any way to save people?" The people on the slope are in danger and cannot hold on for long.

There were spiders from all directions who heard the news and came to join the fight, like flies smelling carrion. The door panel cursed in a low voice: "How many spiders are there in here!"

"They were originally afraid of fire." The guide only said a few words, his face getting paler.

Monsters that are usually afraid of fire are now coming one after another. What kind of demonic obstacle is this?

He Lingchuan thought of Dong Rui.

Can a beast master make it possible for a monster to attack without fear of death?

Liu Tiao watched intently and suddenly said: "I remember that spiders can't swim. Is it the same here?"

The guide was unsure: "I, I don't know, I've never seen a spider go into the water."

There is no shortage of water in Guizhen Stone Forest.

"How far is the nearest creek? It needs to be large-scale."

Sweat dripped from the guide's forehead and he pointed to the west, "There is a big pool there, very deep, about fifteen feet away. I used to take people there to get water and rest."

"Living water or dead water?"

"Living, living water!" the guide swallowed. "There are two streams upstream, heading north! It rained heavily just seven days ago, so the amount of water should be quite large now."

"It's over there." Liu Tong made a quick decision, "Find a way to get them over."

At this time, He Lingchuan missed the secret treasure fragrant dumplings given to him by the bandit. This stuff was so disgusting that it would run away from everyone. It would be great if he could bring it into the dreamland of the Coiling Dragon!

After all, they are a team that has been working together for a long time, and everyone allocates tasks in a few words.

The door panel held out his giant ax, took a deep breath, and said to He Lingchuan: "Okay."

He Lingchuan grinned at him, thrust his arms through his arms, grabbed the belt of the door panel, and threw him out!

He Lingchuan's strength was already great, but after the marrow was cleansed by the Emperor's liquid, He Lingchuan was able to forcefully throw Menpan, a strong man weighing more than 170 kilograms, three feet away!

The door panel exhaled in mid-air and said: "Ride over here, there is a way to survive here!"

Suddenly there was a large living person in the field. The spiders' offensive stalled, and they immediately separated some parts and turned to attack.

He Lingchuan's throwing skills that he had practiced hard for more than two months were paying off. When the door panel fell, there was a large protruding rock under his feet.

He used the force of the rock to turn around and take off again!

Even though he wasn't as nimble as the thin man, and he was holding a heavy weapon, he could still jump more than ten feet.

That's pretty close to the trapped team.

This team had just lost one more person and was seriously injured. They were filled with despair. When they suddenly heard the word "survival", they were overjoyed.

The hoarse sound of smoke on the door panel was more beautiful to them at the moment than the lingering sounds of famous actors in the theatre.

He raised the ax high, and when he landed, the ax hit the ground first - the back of the ax was facing down.

There was a "buzz" sound with a continuous bass sound, like an iron hitting a tuning fork.

The legs and feet of the spider army within a three-foot radius suddenly stopped, and some even formed circles on the spot, as if they were drunk.

"Come here quickly!" the door panel urged.

This wave of bass shock also made the horses on the slope shake their heads, and one of them knelt down on the spot. Everyone ignored it and the two of them jumped on the backs of other horses and ran wildly behind the door panel.

When they were about to pass him by, the door panel hit the ground twice with the axe, knocking out another wave of little monsters.

It took a lot of effort to use such a combat technique, and Menpan's face turned red from holding back. The bass attack is a three-axe attack, and it will take a long time to recover after hitting them all.

Willow also rushed over on horseback and threw several burning bottles. Blue-white smoke burst out of the bottle, and the spider that rushed towards it shrunk when it was smoked. It turned over on its belly, and its eight legs trembled toward the sky.

The team just got rid of the bee demon a few days ago, and the poisonous smoke is particularly effective against insects.

Taking advantage of this gap, Menpan rushed to Willow's side and jumped on his horse. The horse neighed and galloped.

The spiders were even more enraged and chased after him.

Not only are there these followers behind the horses' hooves, but spiders are also falling from the treetops. They land on people or horses and bite them when they open their mouths.

Just cleaning these is a mess.

Fortunately, the guide was qualified, and there was indeed a deep pool more than ten feet away. Everyone jumped directly into the pool, causing water to splash everywhere.

Sure enough, the spider stopped at the water's edge and hissed at everyone. Some seemed to be carried away by anger and even tried to enter the water, but were immediately swept away by the current.

The other spider monsters were surrounding the shore, and there was a huge black sea, but they couldn't do anything to the humans.

As soon as everyone stopped being shocked, they let out a long sigh.

Menpan jumped into the water, held the horse's head and kept comforting it: "I remember that spiders can swim in the water. God knows, but these can't!"

Willow said with a straight face: "The spiders you've seen know how to swim, just because they are small! Look at how big these are."

Most spiders cannot swim because their weight is too small and they can move by relying on the tension of the water surface. If they are replaced with soapy water, they will sink immediately. These spider demons in front of me are as big as cats, how can we expect tension?

The guide shouted at the spider demons and casually asked them why they attack humans.

Most of the spiders all over the mountains and plains here are ordinary burrowing spiders. Only the particularly large ones become monsters and stay behind the spider group. But these things didn't seem to have high IQs. They only opened their mouths and hissed threats at him, as if they didn't want to communicate.

"Put out the torch." He Lingchuan suggested, "I don't think the fire will scare away the spiders, but will only make them more hostile."

Liu Tong did not take it, and only said to the guide: "Go north and get rid of them!"

Thanks to the rain in the past few days, the Guizhen Stone Forest now has sufficient water vapor, and the stream is deepening and widening. As long as the people and horses kept their distance from the shore, the spiders posed no threat. Occasionally, a few bundles of spider silk would come over, which was easy to deal with.

The guide stepped into the water with one foot deep and the other shallow, and wanted to explain to everyone: "These burrowing spiders will eat everything, from small birds to large wild boars and bears, but they just ignore people. I have been to the Ghost Needle Stone Forest for seventeen and eighty years." Come on, this is the first time I’ve seen them attack humans!”

"Why don't they usually eat people?"

"I heard that they are restricted by the local mountains and swamps and are not allowed to prey on humans, as long as humans don't come to trouble them." The guide sighed, "There are too many burrowing spiders in the Ghost Needle Stone Forest. They are kings and hegemons here, and they will swarm when they encounter a prick. Come out. Who dares to trouble them?"

"The Baling people." Liu Tong said solemnly, "No wonder they don't go into the stone forest. It turns out they have pissed off the burrowing spiders a long time ago, and they are just waiting for us to fall into our trap."

At this moment, the rescued people also came up to express their thanks.

They were from another team, but they were scattered by the swarm of spiders that appeared in the middle of the journey. There were originally more than thirty people, a dozen horses, and three trucks, but now there were only these people left, and even the captain had died.

The threat of being buried in the spider's mouth was gone for a moment, and then a businessman fell into the water with a splash. The companion helped him up and saw that he was unconscious, his cheeks were swollen, and his eyebrows were green.

Another patrolman also had a wound on his neck, but he was just suffering from blurred vision, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath.

"poisoned."

Spiders inject poison into their prey, rendering it incapacitated or even unconscious, while dissolving the body for the spider to absorb. These things have been promoted to demons, and their toxins have obviously become stronger. However, Panlong City soldiers will carry emergency medicine with them when they go into battle, and most of them contain detoxification pills. At this time, they must quickly feed the injured with medicine.

The troops in Panlong City are protected by Yuan Power, and their resistance to toxins is much stronger than ordinary people. Both the patrolman and the caravan were bitten by spiders, and their injuries were obvious.

After taking the medicine, the businessman was still unconscious, but the edema on his body slowly subsided, and everyone had to tie him to his horse. The patrolman improved after dozens of breaths, and the pus and blood squeezed out of the wound changed from green to red, and he felt dizzy. It has disappeared, although it is still a little unsteady when walking.

This was a dark, thin man who seemed to be speechless. He only announced his name as Sun Jiayuan.

Another rescued businessman pointed at Sun Jiayuan and cursed: "What path did you lead! Don't you boast that you know everything about Ghost Needle Stone Forest? Why don't you even know that spiders are afraid of water? You only know how to climb hills and follow those monsters." Damn it! We’ve wasted so many lives and lost our goods.”

Sun Jiayuan's Adam's apple twitched and he endured it.

The businessman continued to curse.

He Lingchuan saw that Sun Jiayuan's hand had touched the handle of the knife, and his face turned red.

This is not a good temper either.

"Hey!" Liu Tiao couldn't stand it anymore, "If it weren't for the guards fighting to protect you, you would have turned into a puddle of pus and been sucked into the belly by the spider."

At this time, a group of blue fireworks exploded in the northwest night sky, causing the spiders on the shore to look back.

Everyone saw it too, but were unmoved.

A few dozen breaths later, two red fireworks rose into the sky from the northeast.

After a while, two white fireworks also lit up in the east.

Liu Tong then said: "The signal has come, and the large forces will gather in the northeast." He asked the guide, "Is there an exit in the northeast of the stone forest? Can we reach it by following the river?"

At the swearing-in meeting before departure, General Nanke issued a temporary order. The army gathering in the field was signaled by a red fire rising into the sky, and anyone who saw it should rush there immediately.

Other signals are used to confuse the enemy.

Now two groups of red flames are rising into the sky, giving at least two reminders to the patrols including He Lingchuan:

First of all, the inexplicably rampaging crypt spiders did cause a lot of trouble to the entire army. Many small groups were separated due to the collision of the spider swarms. Only then did the home team send a message to everyone to assemble.
