Chapter 23 Spider Silk

"Young Master Chen, your face is very hot. Are you sick? Take a rest. I have left two yamen runners here to protect you. Tell them wherever you feel uncomfortable. I still have something to do, so I have to take a step first." Jiang Xixi said and walked towards the door.

Shen Qing chased after him, "What's the matter? Has the murderer been caught yet? Why should they protect me?"

"He ran away, and according to the analysis of the master, he should be extremely resentful to you, so he attacked Erxi, so you should be careful."

Shen Qing was shocked, "The government sent so many people over, can he escape? Then..." He suddenly covered his mouth, "Will he continue to look for sacrifices?"

Jiang Xixi nodded, his face sternly, "So I want to find him as soon as possible and I can't let him harm others again."

While talking, the door of the yard next to the Shen family suddenly opened. A middle-aged man walked into the alley and watched anxiously from both sides of the alley. Seeing Shen Qing also there, he hurriedly walked to him, "Mr. Chen, have you seen the two girls in my family? Before going out today, I told him that the city would have a curfew and that they should not go out in the future when they were guarding, but it was so late that the two of them had not returned home yet."

Hearing this sentence, Shen Qing felt the blood all over his body cool down, and his feet staggered. He quickly held the door frame before barely supporting his exhausted body. He turned to look at Jiang Xixi, "What should we do, Lord Jiang, we...what should we do now?"

Without saying a word, Jiang Xixi jumped onto the brown-red horse tied in front of the door and rushed towards the entrance of the alley like a gust of wind.

"Young Master Chen, the two of them... won't... nothing happened, right?" Jiao's father was so scared that he lost his soul. He paled his face and opened his mouth several times before he could say the whole sentence.

Shen Qing did not answer. He now felt that he was the stupidest person in the world. In order to show off his temporary intelligence, he put everyone around him in a dangerous situation.

***

The mountain is covered with gray and has no edges. The cliff head like a knife and axe is standing between the sky and the earth. From time to time, a few birds flapping their wings from above and flew towards the sky.

"Miss Yan, where did the Hu family go? The deep mountains and forests are boundless. It is really difficult to find a few people." Cheng Muyou asked softly.

"Sir, are you tired? Do you want to find a place to rest?" Yan Niang looked back at him. In the darkness, her eyes were flowing like bright stars.

"I'm not tired, it's important to find someone." Cheng Muyou walked a few steps to her. Because he had been practicing on the battlefield for many years, his physique was much stronger than ordinary people, so after walking like this for an hour, he was not angry or weak, and he followed him tightly and did not fall at all.

After walking for so long, the man in front of him had never said a word. His dexterous figure was passing through the mountains and forests. She seemed to have forgotten the self who was following her, so he had to find a topic to increase his presence.

Yan Niang sniffed a few deep breaths, "The death aura is getting heavier and heavier. I think that thing should be not far from us," she glanced at Cheng Muyou, "Sir, then you can hold the Hu family's elders and young people, and that thing will be left to me to deal with."

Cheng Muyou nodded at her, "But girl must be careful. I already know the true body of that thing. He should be a very difficult opponent."

"What the hell is he?"

Cheng Muyou was about to answer when a huge black shadow suddenly appeared above his head. Then, a slippery, sticky thing flew down from above, entangling him and Yan Niang, circled and circled tightly, leaving no gap at all.

The sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang", and the shadow also slid down from the air along another white line and fell onto the land next to it.

It was a spider, as big as a wheel, with eight claws suddenly moving toward both sides. As the body swung, it made a "rattle" sound and crawled towards the two of them.

"Is this the monster?" Yan Niang raised her eyebrows.

"No, the Hu family has lived in the mountains and forests for a long time and knows the flying insects and beasts here. They must have deliberately led us here so that we can become the food on the plate for this giant spider." Cheng Mu said, his eyes tilted upwards. On the cliff, there were several figures standing at them, looking at them, as if they were appreciating their final struggle.

Yan Niang also saw the people on the broken wall. She snorted coldly, "They are not stupid, but they are too underestimating me."

"No matter whether it is overestimated or underestimated, it is important to save yourself now." Cheng Muyou turned his head toward her, because the huge spider had already poked his claws on his neck, and with just a little force, he would pierce his throat.

At the critical moment, a silver handkerchief slid out of Yan Niang's cuffs and flew into the air. Its huge spider was spinning rapidly. The "卍" characters on its body shone brightly, illuminating the entire forest as bright as daytime.

The spider obviously had never seen such a formation. It stopped attacking, and its eight claws were shaking "praise" as if they wanted to pull the handkerchief down from the air.

But the next moment, it suddenly disappeared from the ground, and the handkerchief wrapped it up, rubbed, squeezed, pressed, and shrank, and became smaller and smaller. If it weren't for the lush green blood splashing out from inside, Cheng Muyou would almost think that the huge spider had just disappeared out of thin air.

"A mere mountain spider, and I want to eat me, it's really a mantis arm that makes me a chariot."

Yan Niang snorted coldly again, twisted her body a few times, trying to break the spider silk, but after she tried for a long time, the layers of spider silk were getting tighter and tighter, and made red marks on her exposed forearms.

"Miss Yan, how tough this spider silk is, it's always hard to make any effort."

Yan Niang sighed quietly, and said in a embarrassed tone, "I forgot that the spider silk of the mountain spider is different from other spider silk. The more you struggle, the tighter it will wrap around, and instead relax your body. In less than an hour, it will slowly scatter itself."

"One hour? Then they had already escaped." Cheng Muyou looked at the cliff. As expected, the figures disappeared. There was only a yellow moon above the bare stone, glancing at the two tightly tied people below.

"It's time for this, no matter how anxious the adults are, it's useless. They can only calm down and wait. However, the Hu family probably hasn't brought the offerings over yet. We may not have a chance in a while."

After saying this, she completely relaxed her body, closed her eyes gently, and closed her eyes to calm her spirits.

Although his back was close to his back, Cheng Muyou couldn't feel the temperature on her body. Yan Niang's body was cold, like a piece of jade, and it was just wearing a piece of human skin. It was not surprising at all. What's strange is that he himself was not as hot as outside. Even if it was about to start summer, the temperature was still very low. However, now he was tight and his heart was beating "bang".
