"Are you on your side or on my right side?" Li Qingyu followed closely behind Wen Jiu, observing what was going on behind.
"Together."
In this case, Wen Jiu did not dare to decide to act alone.
Her current perception is not very strong, so the creatures she can sense must not be weak and can be bullied.
There was darkness all around, and the tall trees with dense crowns blocked the sky quite tightly. Only a few rays of moonlight fell from it, casting dots of light on the ground.
"Right in front." Wen Jiu frowned and unfolded the folding bow with his slender wrist. She pulled out a wooden arrow and set it up, ready to strike at any moment.
They stepped forward with full concentration. Wen Jiu and Li Qingyu both suppressed the sound of their footsteps. At this time, except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves and rubbing against each other, there was silence.
Wen Jiu sensed the dangerous aura again, and she turned her head to signal to Li Qingyu.
Thanks to the time we spent together in the kitchen some time ago, now Li Qingyu can understand the meaning through Wen Jiu's eyes without the need for her to say anything.
Wen Jiu quickly stepped on the tree trunk next to him and climbed to a slightly higher position, hiding in the dark night and looking into the distance.
Li Qingyu, on the other hand, took out his tactical knife, held the handle of the knife tightly and stood under the tree to observe the movements around him.
She stared intently at the location she had sensed before, where there seemed to be a black shadow moving slowly. Every time it took a step, the grass under its feet would be trampled into cakes.
No, that can't be called a foot at all.
It should be said, Buzu.
It was a giant spider that could crush them with one foot.
Its four eyes reflected green fluorescence in the night, as if searching for prey.
The four pairs of dark red legs were covered with gray down, which reminded Wen Jiu of the delicious king crab.
But this giant spider is no match for ordinary king crabs.
As if it felt someone was nearby, it slowly moved its feet and made a deep hole in the ground.
Wen Jiu did not dare to continue the investigation, and quickly slipped from the tree trunk to the ground before the giant spider noticed her.
"What's going on? I thought I heard a clicking sound just now." Li Qingyu wanted to help Wen Jiujiu, but was worried that she would fall when she came down from the tree.
Unexpectedly, Wen Jiu jumped up easily and landed quietly and steadily.
"Let's go." Wen Jiu grabbed Li Qingyu and walked quickly towards the leaf shed, while carefully keeping his footsteps soft.
After they returned to the leaf shed, Wen Jiu quickly found a few fruits from the herbs he had collected previously.
"Crush it and apply the juice on your body." Wen Jiu handed the fruit to Li Qingyu and Mina Hearne. They didn't ask any questions and just did as Wen Jiu said.
After Wen Jiu quickly applied it on himself, he crushed another one and applied it to Qiao Shishi who had not yet woken up.
"What did you see on the tree?" Li Qingyu saw Wen Jiu looking a little nervous, and he was even more curious.
"Spider." Wen Jiu spread the remaining juice on the corner of the leaf shed. "This fruit can temporarily mask the smell of our bodies. I will make a gesture later and stop making any noise."
Hearing this, Li Qingyu turned pale. What he fears most is spiders.
"Go and stay aside, shaking like a sieve."
Wen Jiu sighed inwardly. Originally, she had planned to take Qiao Shishi and Mina Hearn and run away.
But considering that the light was dim at night, Qiao Shishi was still in a coma, and Mina Hearn's injuries were not fully recovered, it would be troublesome if they wandered to a more dangerous place.
Although the giant spider was terrifying, it was not too close to their location. Moreover, spiders have poor eyesight and rely entirely on their sense of smell to find prey.
They have now applied odor-masking juice, and with the help of the leaf canopy, they will be able to avoid this disaster if they are lucky.
The three of them all knew the seriousness of the matter, and they could only stay quietly in the leaf shed, listening to what was going on outside with their ears raised.
About an hour later, Wen Jiu sensed that the giant spider seemed to be no longer nearby, so he told the remaining two people to relax their nerves a little.
"It couldn't be the spider we met before, right?" Mina Hearn sat with lingering fear. "It really scared me at the time. The spider's eyes were bigger than my fist."
Wen Jiu recalled what she saw. If she had to use a metaphor, the eyes of the giant spider she saw were probably about the same size as the manhole cover installed on the ground.
"Please stop talking," Li Qingyu shivered in fright, folded her knees and silently hugged her fragile self, "When I thought of that, my whole heart stopped."
Seeing this, Wen couldn't help but joked: "Tsk, tsk, I thought you, the chosen one, were fearless."
Unexpectedly, Li Qingyu was afraid of spiders, and the atmosphere became more lively during the teasing, which made their frightened mood relax a lot.
After a while, Wen Jiu felt that the giant spider had left, and his expression softened a lot.
"Huh, there shouldn't be any danger..." Before Li Qingyu could say the last word of danger, he suddenly heard a chaotic sound coming from outside.
It seemed like several people were running towards them, even screaming as they ran.
"Mina, put Qiao Shishi on your back and find a place to hide quickly."
Wen Jiu frowned. The footsteps were getting louder and louder. It would be difficult for them to escape immediately, so they could only arrange for Mina Hearn to hide with Qiao Shishi first.
After she finished speaking, Mina Hearn immediately carried Qiao Shishi out of the leaf shed and hid in the grass not far away without any further excuses.
At the same time, Wen Jiu and Li Qingyu also walked out, quickly climbed up the surrounding trees, and hid themselves in the leafy location.
The two of them were completely obscured by the leaves.
They finally saw clearly what was happening below.
Several students were running around in a panic, fearing that they would be left last.
Behind them, a dense group of mutant spiders were following.
Although not as big as the one Wen Jiu saw before, these spiders moved very fast, chasing the students non-stop.
Under the moonlight, Wen Jiu finally saw the appearance of those spiders clearly.
The dark green gourd has a ferocious human face. The place where the lips should have been cracked and formed sharp fangs, dripping with emerald green venom.
"I'm going to die on the spot." Li Qingyu only glanced at it and didn't dare to look again. She curled up and prayed frantically not to be discovered by these spiders.
However, many things did not go as expected. Before the spiders discovered them, the students who were running for their lives saw the leaf shed built by Wen Jiu and others.
