our supernatural life

The spider silk is like a piece of white silk, weaving a large web in the air.Although Mai Mai was held down by the woman, she couldn't help but look up a little bit.I saw those bird-sized giant bees flying like lightning, passing back and forth in the spider web. Once the frequency of spider silk spraying slowed down, it would be a dive, forcing the spider to spray out spider silk to resist.

There was a stalemate for about half an hour, and the frequency of the spider's silk spraying decreased significantly, and even the swollen abdomen shrank a little, obviously the stored silk liquid was almost used up.The spider probably also felt that something was wrong, so he turned around and tried to escape.However, how could it be as fast as these giant bees that came and went like lightning, and was immediately surrounded by a swarm of bees.Before the wheat could see what was going on, the spider the size of a wheel fell from the tree, spat out the last bit of silk liquid in its dying struggle, and wrapped the first giant bee whose tail stabbed into it into a white ball , and then quickly stopped moving under the stings of other giant bees.The giant bees carefully pulled out their tail stings, and after circling in the air for a week, they dropped the dead enemies and flew away.

It took a long time for Maimai to catch her breath, and carefully turned over and sat up: "What, what are these things?"

The woman also sat up, frowned and rubbed her ankles: "This is a local wood bee, which is the natural enemy of this mountain spider. But they are not ferocious, and they will not attack people unless they are provoked. "

Wheat was a little incoherent in surprise: "Such a big bee! Is it a mutation? They killed the spider, will they grow bigger again?"

The woman smiled: "It seems that you have discovered the secret of the ancient road. That's right, those spiders can only become so huge by devouring their own kind. But these wood bees can't. They only eat honey and plant juice, and don't participate Come to the refinement of the ancient path, so they will not mutate. They are part of the ancient path, different from other poisonous insects."

When Mai Mai heard the word "refining", for some reason, her heart trembled.This word does not sound like a living thing, as if what entered the ancient path is no longer life, but just some material.

"But, they won't run out? If they run out--" It can be imagined that the scene is not inferior to "Men in Black" or "Godzilla".

The woman smiled again: "No. The reason why the ancient road is called 'independence' is because no matter how many creatures enter the ancient road, in the end they can only-"

Before she finished speaking, Xiaomai suddenly heard footsteps.Because the ground was covered with grass, there was no sound of anything falling, so Wheat didn't hear the footsteps until they were behind them.When he turned his head, a man was coming out from behind the tree, the micro-shooter in his hand was facing them, and there was a distorted smile on his face that was covered in mud and grass juice: "You're running really fast!"

This man is a military division.The clothes on his body had been torn out of shape, and there was still a large area of ​​burn marks on his shoulders.He also injured one of his legs, and walked out with a limp, his face twitching: "Stinky bitch! You have led a good road! What is this place?" His eyes were a little slack, and the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably With a jump, the look on his face already looked a little half-crazy.

Wheat secretly looked around, but couldn't find anything that could be used as a weapon or a shield.He could see that most of the bosses had already been buried among the spiders, and there was only one army division among the six robbers. He probably didn't have any hope of going out, and now he was going to kill someone!

"Calm down, this place is not far from the exit." Mai Mai babbled nonsense, hoping that he could delay for a while and let him figure out a way.

"Fart!" The military commander roared, and the gun turned to point at the wheat, "It's still far from the border! You think I don't know? You bitch! You brought us in to die! My five brothers They all died in this ghost place, you don't want to get out alive, do you?"

Suddenly, wheat caught a glimpse of something slipping between the branches in the distance.The thing looked soft, but it moved quickly and silently, slipping away from the branches, and when it reappeared, it was already on a tree not far behind the military division.

The woman stood up slowly, looked at the military division and replied indifferently: "My husband is dead."

The military commander was stunned for a moment, and asked instinctively: "What?" But he immediately understood, his facial features were all distorted, "Stinky bitch! So you asked us to come to die? I'll--"

Da da da... A shuttle of bullets flew into the air, and the military master was tightly entangled by the giant python that suddenly jumped down, and fell to the ground.He kicked and pulled the trigger wildly, only to be entangled more tightly.The only surviving gatekeeper dragon finally found a chance for revenge.

The woman barely stood up and pulled the wheat: "Let's go!"

In the "hug" of the giant python, the military division turned his head with great effort, his eyes were venomous.The python's head was already hanging on top of his head, and it was about to release its jaws, ready to open its mouth to devour it, but he just stared at the woman.

Mai Mai felt bad instinctively, and pulled the woman to dodge: "Be careful!"

But it was too late.The strategist gave up struggling, raised his micro-shooter with his barely movable right hand, and aimed at them——Mai Mai suddenly pulled the woman aside, and the two of them rolled to the ground together.However, he already felt the woman's body vibrate suddenly, and something warm soaked through his pants.

The giant python was startled by the sudden gunshot, and before it could devour it, it dragged the army division into the depths of the grass.Mai Mai sat up and saw that the woman's abdomen was already stained red with blood.He wanted to press the wound with his hands, but the blood rushed out from between his fingers, and he couldn't stop it.

The woman smiled.At this time, she smiled very serenely: "There is no need to waste this effort, I am definitely going to die. You can go quickly. The gatekeeper dragon swallowed him, maybe he will come back. Although you have not splashed the gatekeeper dragon blood, but it left a smell after all."

Mai Mai tore off the cloth strips to bind her wound: "I'll carry you! Is there any nearest living place around here? Where are the locals you mentioned? They must have medicine, right?"

The woman shook her head: "There will be no one living within a hundred kilometers."

Seeing the strip of cloth quickly stained red with blood, Mai Mai felt uncomfortable.Instead, the woman clapped his hands calmly: "Don't be too busy. Actually, I didn't want to get out alive. My husband died, and I'm going to see him. It's a good thing, so don't be sad. And, if If I don't die, you can't get out."

Mai Mai looked at her puzzled.What is the logic?If she died, he didn't know the way, so he couldn't get out, right?

The woman's face paled quickly, and she reluctantly leaned against the tree next to her: "Listen to me, you go now, the bloody smell will attract some poisonous insects, it's too dangerous. You don't have to bury me, the creatures in the Gu Dao will die eventually. That's it. Don't, don't be sad, there's nothing to be sad about. My husband and I have the same life Gu. If he dies, I wouldn't live long. Yes, it's Gu, you should have heard of it, right? In fact, the ancient road is basically a Gu Dao, and all the creatures that enter are ultimately the materials for refining Gu. Do you know how Gu is refined? Use a container, put all kinds of poisonous insects, let them devour each other, and the rest The last one is Gu."

Xiaomai suddenly understood what the woman said before: "The 'single' you mentioned means that there can only be one left in the end, right? But, there are still so many bugs here..."

The woman slowly shook her head: "They are still devouring each other. If they want to survive, they must devour their competitors. I heard from my grandfather that the end of the Gu Dao is a stone room. Only when there is only one life in the stone room Only when the stone chamber is opened will the stone chamber be opened. Therefore, if I am alive, it is absolutely impossible for you and me to both go out."

Mai Mai didn't want to give up hope: "There is always a way. There must be a mechanism in the stone room."

The woman smiled, and said softly: "You don't understand. Only those who are proficient in Gu art know what kind of place it is. You haven't seen it, so you won't understand it." She raised her hand suddenly, and drew her nails between her eyebrows .She has ten well-maintained pink nails, the little finger is longer and trimmed to a point.Now, she used the nail of her little finger to scratch hard between her eyebrows, and immediately opened a wound.She pinched something in the wound with two fingers, and before Maimai had time to scream, she had already pulled it hard, and then spread her hand, a pale golden beetle was crawling in the palm of her hand.Blood was oozing from the wound between her eyebrows, but she didn't seem to feel it, and sent the beetle to Maimai: "This is my same life Gu, it came out of this Gu Dao, so it recognizes the exit of the Gu Dao, follow it , you will be able to reach the stone room. If there is danger, the Gu insects will be restless to remind you. If I die, the Gu insects will only have one day of life left, so you must find the stone room within 24 hours. It is estimated that the poisonous insects along the way Not less, you have this Gu worm, the general poisonous worms are not good enough to dare to attack you, but those who have devoured the same kind are hard to say. In short, you have to be careful."

Wheat stretched out her hand blankly, and the beetle crouched in the woman's hand, seemingly unwilling to leave.The woman flicked it lightly with the other hand, and flicked it into Maimai's palm.The massive blood loss had already made the woman very weak. She leaned against the tree trunk and closed her eyes slightly: "When I was young, my grandfather taught me Gu skills, and I didn't like to learn... Which girl would like to deal with nests of poisonous insects? But I regret it very much now, if I had learned a little more at that time, I could have refined the Same-Fate Gu to a higher level, and I could have given him my life..." Her voice became lower and lower, and her eyes gradually closed.

Mai Mai shook her: "Don't sleep!" Although the woman said that only one of the two of them would be able to escape the Gu Dao alive, he still couldn't just leave her behind.

The woman slightly opened her eyes and glanced at him, then smiled: "My good boy, I have troubled you. You are a good person, God is watching, you will definitely get out." Her eyes slowly closed again, "I have heard that There is a legend, it is true that once a person who did not understand Gu art walked out of the Gu Dao... He found a mechanism in the stone room, locked all the poisonous insects outside the stone room, and then the stone room thought he was the only one. The remaining Gu King, let him out... Remember, there is only one chance, one chance..." Her voice gradually dropped, her lips moved slightly as if calling someone's name, but the voice was already low Hardly noticeable.Then her head slowly drooped to the side - she died, and Xiaomai didn't know her name until the end, but she heard her husband's name: Jiacheng...

Mai sat for a few minutes facing the woman's gradually cooling body, then stood up.He checked and found that he now had nothing but a lighter.He threw off the backpack when it was stuck by spider silk, and it contained dry food and water. He remembered that there was a simplified version of the Swiss Army knife that the original owner of the backpack threw in it.He has to pick it up.With no food and no water to drink, even if Gu worms can find the stone room within 24 hours, he probably won't be able to persist.But the woman -- Maimai looked around, but couldn't find anything to dig a hole with, so she had to fold a few branches to cover her body -- anyway, it was better than a violent corpse.

Gently laying the woman's body flat, Mai Mai covered her with the folded branches, and suddenly found small holes appeared on the trunk where her blood was stained, and then pairs of tentacles protruded from the holes. Come.Soon, insects as thin as silk threads crawled out one after another, and they were all small centipedes, crawling along the bloody smell, and they all gathered on the dried blood.

Wheat shuddered.He took a step back, only to realize that this little centipede not only came out of the tree trunk, but also crawled out of the ground.Just around his body, a dense layer has already been crawled.The thick ones are only as thick as a thin wire, and the thin ones are as thin as a hair, and you can't find them unless you look carefully.It's just that they seem to be afraid of wheat, they surround him, but they don't get close.

The beetle on the wheat hand crawled around impatiently, flapping its wings.Immediately, the centipedes retreated a few steps like a tide.Mai Mai suddenly remembered what the woman said, it seems that although this beetle is inconspicuous, it is a relatively advanced Gu insect, at least these little centipedes are afraid of it.But as soon as he leaves, these centipedes have no taboo...

Mai didn't dare to think about it.If he had the ability, he really wanted to carry the woman's body out.But he didn't have that much ability, so he had to take one last look at the small grave built by the branches, then turned and left.

Going back to the territory of those spiders, Xiaomai really felt a little scary, but if he didn't, he would have no other way to get supplies.Fortunately, following the remaining spider silk all the way back, the Gu worms have been relatively quiet, showing that there is no major danger.After returning to the place where the accident happened, Xiaomai discovered that the wheel-sized spiders had all gone, and there were two dead spiders that were smashed by bullets on the grass, with a lot of white spider silk beside them.There was another piece of clothing that Mai Mai recognized as belonging to the boss.

After watching for a while, Mai Mai picked up a branch and poked the spider threads, and they were immediately stuck.He pulled hard, and the spider silk was stretched, but it remained tenacious.Wheat pondered for a while, tore the boss's clothes into thin strips, and walked between two branches.There was a bundle of spider silk, glued to two trees at both ends, and hanging in the air.Wheat carefully wrapped the spider silk with cloth strips, rubbed it again, and it turned into a rope.He pulled hard, and the spider silk rope, which was only half the thickness of the chopsticks, was even more resilient than the elastic rope.After rubbing the cloth strips on the spider silk, it was impossible to tear it off, but the surface of the spider silk was covered with cotton fibers, so the stickiness was no longer so great.

Xiaomai put this spider silk rope, which might be a rare treasure, into the backpack - he found the backpack not far away, except that the part stuck to the spider silk on the surface was a little torn, but it was still usable.As for the torn hole -- Wheat made some spider silk and smeared it, which is more sticky than 502.There is also a large pack of beef jerky and a small pack of compressed biscuits in the backpack, as well as three bottles of mineral water.The robbers have been afraid to use these reserves because they are afraid of lack of food in the future, but now it happens to be used for wheat.The simplified version of the Swiss Army Knife was also found, and Mai Mai hung it directly on the belt so that it could be taken out immediately when needed.

With everything equipped, Mai Mai stood up straight, tightly packed his backpack and was ready to go.Suddenly, he felt someone lightly touch his shoulder.

The hair on the back of the neck stood up in an instant, Xiaomai snatched the saber from his belt and held it in his hand, and took two steps to the side before turning back.Turning around, he suddenly felt nauseous and almost retched: the "person" who touched him from behind was a dwarf, but now he was wrapped in a white silk cocoon, and his head and feet were hung from the tree by a spider silk .The silk cocoon has been broken in many places, exposing his face—if it can be called a face—the skin is wrinkled into a ball, as if all the moisture has been sucked dry, but the extremely painful and terrifying expression is still frozen on his face superior.His body has also shrunk by nearly half, which is why he is so lightly hung in the air by a thin thread.

Mai Mai didn't dare to look any more, turned around, and ran like a dog chasing him, and didn't stop until he was out of breath.Now he knew how the dwarf had disappeared, must have bumped into the cobwebs, got wrapped up, hung from a tree so they couldn't find it, and finally… sucked dry.The spider does not kill its prey immediately after catching it, but injects a venom to immobilize the prey, and then slowly sucks it dry.Xiaomai didn't know if the spiders here still had this habit, and he didn't dare to think about it, because just thinking about it would make him bend over and vomit.But he can't vomit now, he needs to save his energy and go out.The woman gave him all the Gu worms, so he must go out and not let her down.Moreover, he didn't want to die, he wanted to go out, he wanted to spend the rest of the time happily, and he also wanted to...see Shao Jing...
