Whoosh——
Before Chen Ziyan finished shaking his head, the moment he finished speaking, a bunch of wrist-thick spider threads shot out from the depths of the dark underground like lightning.
This bunch of spider silk came suddenly. Except for Chen Ziyan, who was the closest, the others didn't notice it until it reached the ground.
At the moment when the spider silk was about to reach his body, Chen Ziyan tapped the toes of his right foot and moved half of his body out of thin air. Only then did he narrowly avoid the sudden attack.
While his body was moving, Chen Ziyan did not forget to wave the shovel in his hand and quickly rotated the shovel head to wrap up the spider silk that he had missed and was about to withdraw.
Only then did the others realize what happened, and quickly picked up the guy in their hands and stepped forward.
"do not come!"
But before he could get closer, Chen Ziyan stopped him with a voice.
It's okay for Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. They are brave and good at fighting. Coupled with the training these days, their physical fitness has improved a lot. Even if they are stuck by spider threads, they will be fine for a while.
But others did not have the strength. Feeling the pulling force from the shovel, Chen Ziyan knew that it could definitely drag a strong man into the ground without any resistance.
After the militiamen all stopped, Chen Ziyan slowly shook the shovel in his hand, wrestling with the black-faced man on the other side, and said to Hu Bayi and the other two:
"Lao Hu, fat man, follow the direction of the spider thread and beat me hard!"
"good!"
The two men responded in unison, then directly lowered the muzzle of the gun and let out a rain of bullets along the spider's thread.
Bang bang bang——
For a moment, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and looking through the gap, fire was splashing in the dark underground passage.
While the two of them were shooting wildly, Chen Ziyan was not idle. Instead, he carefully felt the force on the shovel, planning to use the spider silk to pull the opponent out of the ground when the black-faced man in the ground relaxed.
No matter how powerful this thing is, once it's on the ground, it's up to them to make it round and flat if they want.
But unfortunately, Chen Ziyan had a good idea, but the other party didn't want to cooperate.
After he felt the strength decrease, he suddenly exerted force on his waist, trying to pull out the black human-faced clam hidden underneath, but in the end he only pulled out a long length of spider silk.
Apparently, after sensing the danger, the black-faced turtle decisively chose to cut off its tail to survive, cutting off the connection between the spider silk and its body.
"withdraw!"
Seeing this, Chen Ziyan knew that there would be no gain if he continued, so he decisively asked the two of them to leave.
Naturally, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan also saw the spider thread. Knowing that they might not hit each other this time, they immediately released their fingers on the trigger and quickly left the hole.
They had never come into contact with the thing below, so they didn't dare to venture in for a while, so they had to follow Chen Ziyan's command.
After he was far away from the cave entrance, Wang Kaixuan looked back and asked Chen Ziyan: "Mr. Chen, is that thing just now the human-faced spider you mentioned?"
As he spoke, he looked at the spider silk hanging on Chen Ziyan's shovel, feeling a little chilly in his heart.
At a glance, I can deduce from the size of this spider silk that it is the size of a human-faced spider.
Although Wang Kaixuan was extremely brave, he still felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of facing such a big spider.
This has nothing to do with fear, it is purely psychological discomfort.
This kind of creature itself is so oozing in appearance that when enlarged, it will only become more unsightly, rather than suddenly becoming better-looking.
"That's right." Chen Ziyan nodded lightly.
Although he didn't see the specific appearance of the murderer, if he encountered a creature that attacked people with spider silk here, what else could it be besides a black turtle with a human face?
Even if there were other creatures before, they are gone now, having been eaten up by the black-faced cockroaches long ago.
After saying that, Chen Ziyan shook the shovel in his hand and threw the piece of spider silk to the ground.
This thing is actually a good material, but Chen Ziyan has no interest in it.
To be precise, it was because the quality of the spider silk did not meet his requirements, so he was not interested in it.
The particularity of the human-faced black spider is mainly reflected in its body shape. The spider silk is essentially not much different from ordinary spider silk.
It's just that it's large in size and sufficient in quantity, so it appears to be good in terms of strength and toughness.
But if you compare them carefully, you will find that in terms of functionality alone, there are many species of spiders in the world that produce silk that is stronger than this.
Just when Chen Ziyan was looking at the spider silk, Hu Bayi suddenly reminded him in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, look."
Chen Ziyan followed his line of sight and found that the militiamen surrounding him were whispering to each other, and their expressions were not very good.
From the way they looked at the spider silk intentionally or unintentionally, we could know that the reason for their behavior was this spider silk, or more accurately, it should be the creature that produced this spider silk.
No one is a fool. Everyone should have common sense. When they see such thick spider silk, even if they are not sure what the creature below looks like, they can still know the type and size of the thing.
Even people like Wang Kaixuan will feel psychological discomfort after having a rough image in their mind, let alone these militiamen in front of them.
You must know that since ancient times, spiders have not been a good thing in people's impression, which has to make them worry and fear.
"Everyone, let's take a rest first." Chen Ziyan looked around and found that everyone had similar expressions, so he made this arrangement after thinking about it.
It happened suddenly and it takes some time to accept.
This sudden encounter was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.
Otherwise, there is no need for him to teach by words and deeds, because this is not the case.
It was just that the time came earlier this time, catching him off guard. If he had waited until his preparations were completely completed, he probably wouldn't have had such a reaction.
At the very least, there won't be such a violent reaction.
Wang Kaixuan also discovered the problem. After thinking for a while, he put forward his own suggestion: "Master Chen, how about we go down and catch one for everyone to see?"
seeing is believing!
He has always been good at focusing on key points, and this time was no exception.
The nature of the matter, or the source of the militiamen's fears, is actually unknown.
Because they don't know what a black-faced turtle looks like, they can only fantasize based on the existing conditions.
Fantasy is easily processed by art, and the result is completely different from reality.
Plus there are so many people here, almost everyone has their own ideas.
Under such circumstances, the image they imagine will be the one that combines many factors, is the most easily accepted by everyone, and is also the most frightening.
Empathy.
This will also create empathy and subconsciously create a negative atmosphere.
The simplest and limited way to get rid of this situation is to capture a black-faced turtle.
When the physical object of such a thing is placed in front of you, all illusions based on it will be shattered at the first opportunity.
"My Healing Game"
And if the fantasy is too exaggerated, it will also reduce the fear of such things.
To be more specific, before seeing a real black-faced human face, everyone put all the fitting elements they could think of into it, which is terrifying just thinking about it.
As a result, when you actually see what this thing looks like, it will have the opposite effect because the difference is too large.
To put it simply, it can be described in two words... That's it? !
This is just like in those horror movies, what really scares people is not necessarily the horror itself, but more the scary atmosphere created by sound, environment and other elements.
"Catch one?"
Chen Ziyan was a little moved.
What Wang Kaixuan can see, he can naturally see too.
And I have to say that this proposal is very constructive and of the type that can take effect quickly.
The strength of the three of them is guaranteed. As long as they can encounter the black-faced man, they can capture him.
Even if they couldn't catch anyone alive, bringing back a corpse wouldn't be a problem.
But after thinking about it for a while, Chen Ziyan gave up this tempting idea.
If they did this, wouldn't they still be setting a negative example?
So what's the point of everything he just did?
That is to say, the militiamen nearby didn't know what Chen Ziyan was thinking, otherwise they would definitely tell him that this was just his idea.
With this example, even if Chen Ziyan demonstrated it a hundred times, they wouldn't try it.
Really... you will die if you try it!
"Yes, it just so happens that we clean up the passage below, so we can continue the work, otherwise what will happen if that thing comes and attacks people again?"
Wang Kaixuan didn't know what Chen Ziyan was thinking, and thought he intended to adopt his opinion, so he quickly continued.
He wants to kill those ugly things quickly so that he can be out of sight and out of mind and be in a better mood to explore the ancient tomb.
Everyone else can ignore the ancient tomb, but he, Fatty Wang, will definitely remember it.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't leave now, Wang Kaixuan would have taken Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi with him to explore the ancient tomb first.
In his opinion, excavation work is a boring thing, and it is even more boring if it is not an ancient tomb.
Hu Bayi also felt that this suggestion was very advisable and helped: "What Fatty said makes sense. After all, there is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Even if we don't arrest people with black faces and clean up the passage below, we can carry out things better." The next job."
Compared to Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi's thoughts were simpler.
All he was thinking about was how to resume the stalled excavation work as soon as possible.
Chen Ziyan looked at the two of them and said, "We can indeed clean up directly, but we cannot clean up all the underground passages, nor can we eliminate all the black-faced worms underground."
Speaking of this, Chen Ziyan glanced at the militiamen not far away: "So many people have been mobilized this time not to help us dig holes. To be honest, the main force is to eliminate the black-faced bastards."
This is one of the reasons why Chen Ziyan gave a demonstration.
He didn't know how many black-faced worms there were underground, but he knew it would definitely not be a small number.
Regardless of whether it was him, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, Ding Sitian or Shirley Yang, even the most powerful Wushuang Ghost in the team could not deal with so many dark-faced bastards by himself.
Although they have special skills and are a little different from ordinary people, they are still human beings in essence.
Even Chen Ziyan, who has awakened his bloodline, is at most stronger than ordinary people, but not superhuman.
So he knew from the beginning that if he wanted to completely eliminate the black-faced worm tribe entrenched here, he would need a lot of people.
This is why he told Ding Sitian the news and asked her to report it to the superiors.
It's simple. Chen Ziyan doesn't have so many manpower.
I dare not and cannot gather so many people.
Hu Bayi probably understood what Chen Ziyan meant and said, "Master Chen, do you want the militia brothers to try their hand at it?"
Chen Ziyan nodded: "Yes, although we plan to raid the incubation room, there will definitely be black-faced bastards living outside. These stragglers will have to look to our militia brothers."
This kind of collection has never been a small job, not even for their small group.
"Then what should we do now?" Wang Kaixuan asked.
Even if he didn't understand it before, he already understood it now after listening to the conversation between the two.
Although he still insisted on his own ideas, he did not deny Chen Ziyan's ideas.
"Let them rest for a while and let them get used to it. We will rearrange it later and send people to guard the area with guns while we are digging." This is the most feasible method that Chen Ziyan came up with in a short period of time.
Guarding with a gun may not be useful, but this way the weapon will be very close and you can resist immediately.
Of course, Chen Ziyan felt that even if someone would encounter a black-faced man, he probably wouldn't encounter a situation like his.
It was such a coincidence that I happened to encounter a black-faced turtle and was within its attack range.
"It won't be very effective," Hu Bayi said with a frown.
He actually wanted to say that it had no effect, but considering Chen Ziyan's face problem, he temporarily changed it to have little effect.
He felt that at the speed at which the black-faced bastard attacked just now, even he and Fatty might not be able to respond in time, let alone these militia brothers.
Although they train regularly, it is only some military training, more on formations and firearms operations.
As for things like reaction speed, it is probably not something that can be trained very much.
Militia, as the word "people" in front of them shows, they are not professional soldiers like Hu Bayi after all.
Wang Kaixuan said nothing, but gave Chen Ziyan a sly look.
He was always ready to speak up and help Hu Ba get rid of this matter.
Chen Ziyan was silent for a moment and said: "I also know that this may not be useful, but this can give them comfort."
He expressed another idea, or another reason for his original idea,
Psychological comfort.
Yes, it really doesn't work.
But if it can give the militiamen psychological comfort, so that they will not be so afraid and can carry out normal work, it has already shown its effectiveness.
As for other aspects, perhaps it is not that important anymore.
