#43 - The Spider Who Wants to Sneak Out of the Kingdom (Part 1)
The weather gradually warmed up, and the glaciers in the far north began to melt, forming a vast torrent that nourished the land along the dried-up riverbeds.
The river water flowed along the terrain, and after traveling thousands of miles, the entire land was fully irrigated. With the nourishment of the river water, countless grass seeds absorbed the moisture and began to sprout in the temperate environment, and the land that had been arid for several months was once again covered with a layer of green.
On a patch of newly sprouted clover, Fourleaf was lying on its stomach. The warm midday sun made the spider feel lazy, and the fragrance of the newly sprouted grass made it involuntarily sink into a sweet sleep.
"Fourleaf, Fourleaf." Bai Zhi came running from afar. Getting closer, she saw it was sleeping, and without hesitation, she directly nudged it awake.
"Huh?" Fourleaf groggily got up, rubbed its eyes with its small pedipalps, and asked with a sleepy expression, "Bai Zhi, what's wrong?"
Bai Zhi, acting like an elder, lectured, "You little spider are really bold, daring to sleep in such an open place. Aren't you afraid that a big bird will come out of nowhere and snatch you away?"

Fourleaf's brain cleared up, and it said somewhat embarrassedly, "I was just playing here, and the sun was so warm that I fell asleep without realizing it."
"You must be careful next time." Bai Zhi reminded it. Fourleaf was so small that a slightly larger bird could swallow it in one gulp.
Then she didn't dwell on the topic. She continued, "Today, I went to inquire with Hei Nuo, and the Five-Department Flame Spider merchants all set off at about the same time. When the time comes, with hundreds of spiders densely packed, we just need to be careful and we can blend into the caravan and go out with them."
Fourleaf was full of question marks: "We are original Flame Spiders. If we mix with the Five-Department Flame Spiders, our original energy properties are different. Shouldn't it be easy to be discovered?"
"I have a way."
"Clang, clang, clang, clang," Bai Zhi took out a round little bead and shook it in front of Fourleaf as if showing off. The little bead emitted a somewhat dazzling golden light under the sun.
Fourleaf was a little puzzled: "What is this?"
Bai Zhi twirled the little bead between her claws and said triumphantly, "This is called gold. Mountain Master Huzhang said it is an inert metal. Don't ask me what an inert metal is, I don't understand either.
But Mountain Master Huzhang said that there are several things in the Origin Star Realm that can naturally bind Origin Power. One is the silk bag we weave, one is the royal bee honey brewed from the pollen of God-given Seeds, and the other is gold."
"Gold can not only isolate the penetration of Origin Power, but also isolate mental power. As long as we hide inside the gold, it won't be easy for Mountain Master Ziyun to find us."
Fourleaf took the gold and examined it carefully, and also tried it with mental power, and found that mental power and Origin Power indeed could not penetrate it: "But where are we going to find so much gold?"
"Hehe, you little warrior, you don't understand this, do you?" Bai Zhi supported herself with her hind four claws, raised her front four claws and put them on her waist, and said smugly, "As far as I know, there used to be gold sand in a river in the Flame Spider Kingdom. At that time, Mountain Master Golden Color Flame Spider of the tribe led spiders to dredge a lot of gold sand to make metal products.
Because it was cheap, Mountain Master Huzhang bought a lot at that time. Later, he found that gold was too heavy, and the property of binding Origin Power overlapped with the function of the silk bag, and it was not as convenient as the silk bag, so he treated it as art and sent a lot to everyone. There are many gold products in Xuanyu's nest, and it usually doesn't care about them. They are left there to collect dust. Let's take two to use."
Fourleaf was shocked: "Are you saying we're going to steal from Xuanyu?"
Bai Zhi was dissatisfied: "Why do you say it so harshly? Can a junior taking something from a senior be considered stealing? We are not going to sell it, just use it for a while, and we will return it to it later. This is called borrowing."
Fourleaf: "…"
Xuanyu is really unlucky to have a junior like you.
Bai Zhi: "Let's go, let's go to Xuanyu's place to see if there are any gold products suitable for hiding."
"Isn't this bad?"
Bai Zhi: "Fourleaf, do you still want to go out and travel to find the God-given Seed?"
"Yes!"
"If you want to, come with me."
Fourleaf thought for a while: "Why don't we go to Xuanyu to get one? Mountain Master Huzhang taught us that stealing is wrong. The most important thing for Flame Spiders is reputation. We can't be untrustworthy spiders.
If Xuanyu doesn't agree, we'll think of another way."
Bai Zhi pondered for a moment, and felt that what Fourleaf said was right, and she, as an elder, could not lead the little spider astray: "Okay, then let's go to Xuanyu now."
"Come up." Bai Zhi stretched out a spider leg for Fourleaf to climb onto its carapace.
"You go in front, I'll follow behind you." Fourleaf was unwilling to climb onto Bai Zhi's carapace.
"Okay," Bai Zhi regretfully retracted her spider leg. It was another day of trying to be an elder and failing.
The two little spiders ran quickly through the forest and soon arrived at Xuanyu's strawberry garden.
"Xuanyu, Xuanyu." At noon, Xuanyu was hiding in its nest, sleeping soundly. The two little spiders ran to the entrance of its nest, jumping up and down, and constantly calling it with mental thoughts.
"It's these two guys again," Xuanyu was awakened. It swept its mental power outside and saw the two jumping little fellows. It walked out aggressively: "Why is it you again? Didn't you pick enough strawberries yesterday? Are you here to help me pick strawberries for another day?"
"Ah? No, the little spider was exhausted yesterday. It's not picking strawberries today." Hearing that they had to pick strawberries for Xuanyu again, the two little spiders were frightened. They were exhausted from picking strawberries for half a day yesterday, how dare they continue to pick them.
Xuanyu said unhappily: "Then what are you here for? Do you want a beating?"
"No," Bai Zhi said carefully: "Xuanyu, didn't Mountain Master Huzhang give you a lot of gold products before? Can you give us one to play with?"
Hearing that they wanted gold products to play with, Xuanyu was uninterested: "That one? I usually don't use it much. If you want it, take a few to play with."
"Thank you, Xuanyu." The two little spiders raised their chelicerae and cheered.
The two little spiders followed Xuanyu into its nest. Xuanyu's nest was under a mound. It hollowed out the entire mound, and also asked the spiders of the Watase Flame Spider tribe to harden the inside with earth and stone abilities. It was huge and empty, enough for it to live in until it reached the Lord level.
There was no light in the nest, but the Flame Spiders' super vision was not affected by the dim environment around them.
Walking into the nest, you could see all kinds of things piled up inside. Everywhere were silk bags containing seeds to be sown in the spring, various jars, etc. Xuanyu pointed to a corner and said: "All the gold products are there. Take whatever you want."
"Okay," the two little spiders happily ran to the pile of gold products and rummaged through them.
Probably because gold products were cheap, Mountain Master Huzhang sent Xuanyu a lot of them. There were more than a dozen pieces, large and small. The small ones included exquisite golden knives, golden combs, and golden mirrors.
The large ones included beautifully shaped golden teapots, golden jars, golden pots, and golden cauldrons. Most of these were manufactured by imitating creations of extraterrestrial civilizations. They were beautiful and cheap. The only drawback might be that they were somewhat heavy compared to silk bags.
