Disappointment is not terrible. What is terrible is the despair of being pushed to the bottom when you are about to reach the peak of hope.
At this moment, Jiang Yichen had mixed feelings in his heart. He hoped to find a few people he knew among these spider eggs, such as Situ Zhong, Zhang San, Hong Que, Xun Bao, Wang Shide, or Tai Chi who was with him that day.
The people in the village and the Daoyi Alliance, even finding the government servants whom he had never met before would make him feel at ease, but he was also afraid that after opening the spider eggs, he would see them dead.
When he carefully opened the six spider eggs on the top layer, he found that they were full of new faces that had been dead for many days. At this time, he didn't know whether he should be sad or happy.
There weren't many spider eggs in the stone room. Hongye had already scratched through more than ten spider eggs scattered everywhere, but still found nothing, and was walking towards the hill where Jiang Yichen was.
"How?" After Hongye spoke, he knew that he must have asked nonsense. If he found out, how could Jiang Yichen remain silent?
"It seems that the status of the big guys in this cave is not high, so there are no powerful characters among these hoards of goods and grains. Naturally, there will be no one left alive." Hongye shook his head and sighed.
"Sister Hongye, are there other stone chambers in this cave?" Jiang Yichen asked doubtfully as there were only a few spider eggs left that had not been opened by the two of them.
"It's unlikely. I've checked. This stone chamber is closest to the entrance where I came in. It's convenient for transporting and storing the captured people without disturbing the spiders inside. Besides, there's still room here, so why bother?"
Then open another room inside." Hong Ye replied.
"...No one will survive." After Jiang Yichen opened the last spider egg, he announced the result with a hung head.
"It seems there is no one you know among them."
"No, but I have seen the same outfit."
"Oh, that Greedy Wolf Gang?"
"Um."
"This is also natural. Although they are cannon fodder, their bodies are thick enough, which is considered good nutrition for the God-given spiders that are not the focus of breeding."
"So, there must be another or multiple spider lairs to hide those who are good at martial arts?"
"It's not optimistic. They may have died in the spider's belly, such as the owner of your sword."
"...This unimportant spider nest contains hundreds of thousands of God-given spiders, not to mention how many little spiders that have not yet hatched. With several nests, the number of God-given spiders may be countless.
Thousands of existences.”
"Therefore, the importance of Ji Qianlin to the Tushita Gang, who can control hundreds of heaven-sent spiders with just the magic flute, is self-evident. If he can be captured and killed, the Tushita Gang may not dare to do so.
He is breeding this god-given spider like crazy, but for such an important general, the Tushita Gang will never let him act freely. There will definitely be someone secretly following him, to monitor and control his movements at all times, and to protect him."
Hearing this, Jiang Yichen couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine. He thought that if he had desperately tried to take Ji Qianlin's life last night, he might have died first. "So Brother Ye might be in danger."
"The danger is bound to exist, but according to what you said, Ji Qianlin alone is enough to manipulate him without the help of others. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go." Hongye said calmly,
He was already thinking about how to find the next spider nest.
"Hehe, thank you for the sister's compliment, but I really didn't expect that this little brother was so lucky and blessed, and he hasn't been swallowed by that big baby yet. Now that he's here, he'll be in peace, and my sister and little brother will be happy here. Let's
Enjoy these treasures of mine." Ji Qianlin's sweet laughter suddenly echoed in the cave, and then the rustling sound, guided by the sharp flute, was approaching the two of them.
"The ghost lingers." Jiang Yichen clenched the purple jade dragon scale sword in his hand.
"It just happened to be delivered to your door." Hongye smiled leisurely.
"Thank you for the compliment, little brother. I'm very grateful. If this sister likes the Nujia, the Nujia will come back to you some other time. Oh, if you are still alive, haha, the Nujia has something important to do, so I can't spend more time with you.
Let's go ahead and say goodbye." The sound of the flute stopped, Ji Qianlin's words came again, and the sound of the spiders moving like a tide echoed through the entire nest.
"Follow me." As soon as Hong Ye finished speaking, he left.
Jiang Yichen's Qinggong and body skills are already outstanding, but Hongye's footwork is obviously no longer inferior to Jiang Yichen's.
The two of them quickly ran towards the entrance of the cave where Hong Ye came from, and could already vaguely see the faint light coming from the front.
However, that glimmer of light was quickly blocked by a large man falling from the sky, and a swarm of large and small spiders around it also came from the front, chasing and intercepting it.
"Fight quickly!" Hong Ye said four words, and then disappeared beside Jiang Yichen, looking like a ghost, waving the Acacia dagger, walking like the wind, and kept moving forward.
The red and black daggers were like judges of life and death. The heaven-sent spiders that pounced one after another were immediately pierced through the mouth from the inside out.
These spiders have not completely cut off their life, and while they are still baring their teeth and claws unconsciously, Hongye's figure is no longer where he is.
One after another Lingbo petals bloomed in the darkness, Hongye attacked in front. Jiang Yichen's technique was no more precise and sharp than Hongye's, so he started doing chores, using Lingbo chop to clear away the spiders that Hongye missed or had no time to kill.
.
Seeing their kind being killed one by one, the tall man guarding the entrance of the cave was already enraged. He opened his mouth and screamed, urging more spiders to intensify the siege. At the same time, he turned his back and spun threads of spider silk from the back of his abdomen.
The jet was ejected from the device, and in an instant, lines of spider silk formed a web in the air. The spider web was nearly one foot square in size and spread toward the red leaves.
"Be careful!" Jiang Yichen hurriedly warned Hong Ye, fearing that Hong Ye might not notice the prison made by the spider.
Obviously his worries were unnecessary. The figure not only left its original position before the spider web fell, but also hit four or five small spiders towards the spider web in an instant.
When the dark white dragnet clung to the ground, five small spiders were trapped in the web and could not move.
When the big man turned around, he was also horrified by the result, and immediately spun and made a web again.
However, this time its target was not Hongye or Jiang Yichen, but the cave entrance that shimmered with light.
"This beast is really smart, Xiao Jiang, I'm going to open this beast's mouth, and you have to kill it with one blow," Hongye said.
"Okay." Jiang Yichen replied.
Hongye rushed towards the big guy, and in the blink of an eye, he had successfully eliminated the six little spiders. He kicked off his feet vigorously, and leaped towards the big guy with a red and black blade that shone with dazzling golden light.
The big spider already sensed that danger was approaching, and it showed its sharp fangs and stood up to confront it.
"At this moment, the big spider really fell into the trap." Jiang Yichen said secretly.
Hong Ye shrunk her body and shot into the big spider's mouth instantly like an arrow from a string.
At the moment of entrance, Hongye stretched his body vertically, holding the red dagger in both hands and the black dagger between his feet, piercing the upper and lower flesh of the big spider's mouth up and down, forcefully opening its mouth.
The big spider was in unbearable pain, but there was nothing he could do about it. The red leaf became violent and uneasy, struggling and shaking.
"Xiaojiang, hurry up!" Hongye shouted. The spider didn't know what it had just swallowed or it was like this. The smell in its mouth was extremely bad. As soon as she entered, she was rushed by the smell and almost fainted. At this time, she was holding back
He was so angry that he held back his nausea and stayed in the spider's mouth.
Jiang Yichen didn't dare to neglect, but the big spider's swaying figure also made him worry about hurting Hong Ye, so he didn't dare to take action at will.
In the end, Jiang Yichen used a shooting star to bully the big spider, and then shot a hundred-step flying sword directly at its mouth.
The purple jade dragon scale sword was so sharp that it directly penetrated the big spider from the inside out and cut off its life immediately.
The eight legs lost control and could no longer support the big spider's body, and fell to the ground.
After killing a big spider, the little spider did not retreat at all, as if seeking revenge, but instead became more and more crazy, like moths flying into the flames, and flew toward his face.
The cave entrance was only a stone's throw away, and the pursuers from behind were approaching. Jiang Yichen and Hongye flew out of the cave without a moment's delay.
Fortunately, the entrance to the cave has not been completely sealed by the big spider, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort to escape.
The sun was shining brightly outside the entrance of the cave, and the little spiders were squatting in the shadows. The big spider behind was full of killing intent, seemingly fearless, but it was unable to escape from the small spider that was already small and most of it was blocked by spider webs.
After getting out of the hole, we had no choice but to let the two foreign enemies, or rather, the two food items, walk away.
"Looks like I'm pretty lucky, I got some good news." Hong Ye said after seeing the situation at the entrance of the cave.
"Well, this news is really good." Jiang Yichen followed Hong Ye's line of sight and understood at a glance.
