Master, you go first!

"I don't practice anymore. I haven't been out for several months. Why don't I go out with you to play?"

"Okay, why not? Let's go back to Dan Peak to shake people. I'll ask Senior Brother Lu and the others to check if they are going. It's been a long time since we went down the mountain together."

……

Returned to Danfeng. Gu Jiu then sent a message to the team members. Then seeing that Shen Nian was bored with nothing to do, he asked,

"Master, do you have nothing to do?"

"Well, what are you doing? Do you want to give me your speech book?"

Gu Jiu was a little afraid of her and would talk to her whenever she had free time. However, he suddenly remembered that she seemed to be somewhat interested in poetry during the Lantern Festival. Among the jade slips he found were several volumes of Tang poetry and Song poetry. At that time, he lamented that the inheritance of history could still be preserved in this way. sidewalk,

"Do you want poems? I suddenly want to read poems."

"Okay. Do you need to copy it?"

"It's okay to copy it out. It's also good to cultivate your sentiments if you have nothing to do."

"Let's go, let's go, it's boring."

So the two of them went to the study on the second floor to work as copywriters.

The poems of the ancients contain many beautiful, passionate, sad, feelings of family and country, small bridges and flowing water, and other emotions. When Shen Nian encountered something he didn't understand, he would ask Gu Jiu and then mark it up.

Not to mention, Shen Nian listened and copied. Sometimes she felt like she had returned to that ancient era, watching the sun rise and the moon set, and the flowers fade and bloom. This feeling is more charming than the obedient book, and she likes this feeling very much. Moreover, the stories behind some of the poems were also deeply touching, just like short stories, and what Shen Nian listened to was still unfinished.

After copying more than a dozen poems, Shen Nian was very satisfied. He picked a few that he particularly liked and said that he wanted to frame them and hang them in the study so that he could see them often.

At this time, someone came outside the house. Lu Rui was the closest and came the fastest. Not long after, Qiu Junhao and Tan Shuyi also arrived.

Lu Rui brought news that the sect had a commission from the southern border. There was an incident of monsters hurting people in Qingshan Town. He asked everyone if they wanted to pick it up.

There are several types of sect tasks, including internal tasks within one's own sect, tasks assigned by sects outside the sect, entrusted tasks, and world-wide tasks.

The first two tasks are easy to understand. The entrusted tasks are tasks that cannot be solved by the mortal government and are entrusted to the Immortal Cultivation Sect for help. Of course, other sects may also entrust them to help in rare cases.

The world missions are missions that are made public by major sects and can be taken up by sects all over the world. Many times they are wanted for certain individual cultivators with higher cultivation levels. To put it bluntly, they are bounty missions. They were probably some casual cultivators who destroyed corpses and traces but failed to find evidence in time. After all, it was not easy for casual cultivators to get around without a backing.

And the task Lu Rui mentioned was exactly the task entrusted by the mortal world. The location is probably to the east, not too far away. It can be said that it is a bit of a smooth road to the direction of Qiankun Sect.

"Is the monster powerful? Is it dangerous?" Gu Jiu, who cherished his life, immediately considered safety issues.

"It shouldn't be dangerous. The task level is at the foundation-building level, so it's not too difficult." Lu Rui said.

"That's okay. Let's take a walk. After accepting the mission, we can go over. I haven't moved my muscles for a long time." Shen Nian said a little excitedly.

So a few people went to pick up the mission and rushed to Qingshan Town. Gu Jiugang was not proficient in base building and flying, and he thought he was flying too slowly, so he still used Shen Nian's flying sword.

When we arrived at Qingshan Town, there were already government officials sent from the county seat waiting here.

After some exchanges, we found out that the monster spider was at work. Several people from the town had been arrested after entering the forest, and their lives and deaths are unknown to this day. And this monster spider is extremely fast, and will disappear when it sees a crowd of people.

But after a while, he came out to harm people again. The government sent out several times, but could not catch him, so he had no choice but to entrust the Immortal Cultivation Sect to send people to help.

"What does this spider look like?" Qiu Junhao knew more about monsters, so he asked a mortal who witnessed it.

"With eight legs."

"Who doesn't know that spiders have eight legs?" Qiu Junhao's dark face turned darker, "Let's get to the point."

"It's just eight legs. Immortal Master, I really didn't lie."

"..."

At this time, Gu Jiu couldn't stand it anymore and walked out and said,

"Okay, I know it has eight legs, and then how big this monster is."

"Oh, it's about the size of two adults," the man replied.

"What color is it? Are there any patterns on it?"

"It's black and purple, with no patterns on its body, just some white spots on its legs. It looks like those legs and feet are very strong."

"How does it catch people?"

"It spins spider silk and hangs people up."

"Anything else you can think of about it?"

"Well, let me think about it," the man said after thinking for a while, "it will swing back and forth on the tree, and then it will spit out a thread and hang on the tree, then swing away, and then it will buzz again. Spit out another one, hang it on another tree, swing it away, and then..."

The man gestured with his hands and purred several times. Gu Jiu directly covered his face, thinking, wow, Spider-Man.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Junhao immediately took out his book and started flipping through the pages.

"Silver-threaded flower-footed spider," Qiu Junhao pointed to the book and said, "But it's strange. According to the above records, this kind of demon spider is very timid. It usually hides in deep mountains and old forests. It is a type that runs away when it sees people. It shouldn't be People who know how to attack are right.”

"What's going on?" Gu Jiu asked Qiu Junhao doubtfully, "Are there any other records? For example, have you found anyone who attacked anyone before?"

"No, it is recorded that this demonic spider usually only hunts small animals. Even pigs and dogs are rarely hunted, let alone humans."

"Something is fishy. What should I do?"

"Let's explore the mountains first. It shouldn't be a big problem if we walk together and don't get separated." Lu Rui came out and said.

Everyone said yes in unison, and then went into the forest, just in case, without letting mortals or government officials follow.

The trees in the forest on the edge of the town were tall and full of dead branches and leaves. Lu Rui walked in the front, and Shen Nian followed beside him, occasionally using his sword to cut open some shrubs blocking the road.

I searched for a long time in the direction mentioned by the witness, but no trace of the spider was found.

Gu Jiu then asked Qiu Junhao,

"Senior brother, what are the habits of this demon spider? Where does it like to hide?"

"Oh, I'm hiding in a tree. I basically won't go down to the ground."

It took a few people to come back to their senses. If this guy hadn't said anything earlier, everyone's attention was on the ground. Qiu Junhao received a few eye rolls in an instant.

Everyone then turned their attention to the tree again. The moment Gu Jiu just raised his head, a silver thread shot from a big tree not far away.

The silver thread immediately wrapped around Gu Jiu several times, trying to lift him up. Fortunately, Lu Rui took hold of Gu Jiu's legs in time and pulled Gu Jiu down with force. With a bang, Gu Jiu was thrown to the ground. Seeing stars.

Lu Rui's strength was not small, and he pulled the spider down from the tree with just one tug.

Upon seeing this, the spider immediately hid behind the big tree next to it, and then spun silk on the big tree in the distance and swung away. The speed of its escape was unexpectedly fast.
