"The recent events in Xijiang County have already attracted the attention of many forces, not to mention that relevant people have been injured and killed. If we put it in normal times, whether it is a sworn alliance between nine states, a four-sea alliance, or a moral alliance, ten Within a day, Xijiang County will be turned upside down, and even the weirdest things will come to light. It will not be the turn of us little miscellaneous fish to risk their lives here." Hongye curled his lips and answered vaguely, but shook his head frequently, showing that I am extremely reluctant to come here to get involved in right and wrong.
Hearing something in Hong Ye's words, Jiang Yichen looked solemn and asked: "But what big changes happened in the world?"
"I'm not very clear about the specific situation. For some reason, the two alliances of Jiuzhou and Sihai are fighting over trivial matters in Pinghai County. Both sides have casualties. The poor Daoyi Alliance is already busy with itself and is facing enemies from both sides, but at this time, I have to distract myself from being the peacemaker for both sides. Once these gangs, which are at least ostensibly just, are strangled together, those clowns from evil demon sects will be able to cause chaos as they please."
Hongye spoke in an understatement at the beginning, but when he heard the words behind him, it was almost like chaos in the world, and Jiang Yichen couldn't help but look sad.
"Let's not talk about this matter, we little shrimps should just do what we can." Hongye changed the topic, and Jiang Yichen couldn't help but secretly criticize women's fickleness.
"You asked me just now why I came here. I came here to investigate the conspiracy of the Tushita Gang. Many people from your Daoyi Alliance have been involved in it and their whereabouts are unknown. However, they are burdened by the general situation of the world and there are not enough available people. , out of helplessness, the old man turned to our Feather Tribe for help, so the eldest sister sent me here. But since you can also check this place, it seems that the young people of the Daoyi Alliance are still quite good, not bad. "Hongye He patted Jiang Yichen's shoulder several times, quite appreciatively.
"Eldest sister? She must be the leader of the Yuluo tribe. I didn't expect it to be a woman." Jiang Yichen thought to himself.
"As far as I know, the Demon Palace in Kyushu and the temples in the four seas each sent one person to investigate the matter, but it seems that they haven't found it yet. You can tell me how you accidentally found it before them. Come into the lair of these little beasts." Hongye said curiously.
After Jiang Yichen heard this, he felt embarrassed for a while, but Hongye was considered a senior, so he couldn't help but answer. So after hearing the urgent letter from Hongque asking for help, he rushed to Xijiang County with several people from Taiji Village and Daoyi Alliance. When he mentioned it, he kept talking about how he was plotted by Ji Qianlin and fell into this spider hole. He only slightly omitted the details, and told Hong Ye more completely about everything, hoping that she could provide him with advice.
"Haha, yes, yes, if you don't pay a price for Jianghu's affairs, you won't be able to find out the key. If you don't have the courage, I'm afraid you'll still be helpless in Jianglin Town at this time. As the saying goes, you can't catch the tiger's den without entering the tiger's den. You should have known a lot of clues since you came here, and this spider lair is the key to unlocking the entire mystery."
"So, Sister Hongye has already discovered it?"
"I also entered the cave not long ago, but I peeked in from another entrance. I just happened to find an unguarded stone chamber. When I poked inside, I found that there were a lot of spider eggs stored there. Normally speaking, if there were They are really spider cubs that have not yet hatched. These eggs should not be stacked. However, the eggs in the stone chamber are not only scattered and piled up into mountains, but also staggered. It seems that they have been thrown in at will. The most important thing is that , these eggs may be big or small, but no matter how small they are, it is not a problem to hold a person curled up in a ball. There must be a lot of stories in them, but..."
"Just?" After hearing the previous words, Jiang Yichen's eyes became clear and bright. Hongye paused at this turning point, making him hasten to tell himself to calm down.
"It's just that you made too much noise, almost disturbing the entire spider nest. I had to find a hiding place and hide first to avoid being eaten alive by those little beasts. Therefore, I still don't know what's inside the egg." Can things be people?" After Hongye said this, he rolled his eyes at Jiang Yichen.
Hearing this, Jiang Yichen was so embarrassed that he wanted to get into the gap again and sullen.
"Come on, follow me to explore the stone chamber." Hongye greeted.
"If things go like this, won't we provoke those spiders again?" Jiang Yichen asked.
"I almost forgot about this. Come on, tie this thing around your shoes." Hongye took out a dark white piece of stuff from his waist and handed it to Jiang Yichen.
"This is... a cocoon made by a spider." Jiang Yichen understood instantly.
"Yes, after entering the cave, I first destroyed a small nest of spider eggs and randomly searched there. That's why I discovered the strange arrangement of spider eggs in the stone chamber. This thing I got from there. The bits torn from the nest of eggs are wrapped around the shoes, and the sound they make is inaudible."
Jiang Yichen couldn't help but secretly smacked his lips. Could it be that all the Yuluo people were so fierce? He should ask Murong Jing for advice when he had time.
…………
Under the leadership of Hongye, the two of them could come and go freely in the cave, and destroyed two small nests of spider ovaries before arriving at the stone chamber that Hongye had mentioned.
There is no stone door in the stone chamber. There are passages connecting the inside and outside. The inside is only three feet square, and traces of artificial excavation can be seen. And those spider eggs are just as Hong Ye said, scattered everywhere and stacked like mountains.
Upon closer inspection, there were about thirty spider eggs in the stone chamber.
"It's strange that in such an important place, no one from the Tushita Gang is stationed to guard it," Jiang Yichen said.
"Sleeping with these little beasts? You might get eaten one day." Hongye rolled his eyes.
"So, the Tushita Gang doesn't have a good way to control these spiders?"
"That should be the case. Perhaps only Ji Qianlin and a few Gu Masters invited from Yunze Realm can control these so-called heaven-sent spiders."
"Since the Tushita Gang still cannot fully control these heaven-given spiders, why would they dare to raise tigers to cause trouble?"
"Opportunities and risks coexist. If you want to gain more, you have to take greater risks. When the Tushita Gang did this, they must have thought about how to deal with the reactions of these spiders and various forces. Furthermore, raising These spiders are much easier to raise than humans, and if you can successfully control them, they will definitely be a powerful weapon."
"The implication of Sister Hongye's words is that the gap between the Kyushu and Sihai Alliances was caused by the Tushita Gang, so they have no time to care about the Xijiang matter."
"It is not impossible, but the gap between the two alliances has existed for a long time. It is more due to the difference in concepts. Otherwise, why not form an alliance, which would be indestructible. In recent years, the power of the two alliances has developed rapidly, but they are not mutually exclusive. The friction between them is getting bigger and bigger, and the bigger the friction is, the smell of gunpowder will become stronger and stronger. Only a fuse between the two can completely ignite the smell of gunpowder, and the one who ignites the fuse will simply Given the strength of the Tushita Gang, I’m afraid it’s still difficult to accomplish this. This conflict should be the result of a conspiracy among several sects.”
While they were talking, the two of them had already walked to a spider egg in the corner. Hongye took out his Acacia dagger and struck it directly at the spider egg. "I don't know how many spider nests like this there are. If there are three or four more, I don't know." , it’s really a big trouble.”
Jiang Yichen said nothing, but stared nervously at the crack opened by the red leaves.
There is no yolk flowing out, so is it really a human?
"Hey, rest in peace." Hong Ye, who was breaking open the spider egg, paused, sighed softly, and then stood up and moved to the next egg.
Jiang Yichen came closer and saw clearly the scene inside the egg.
It was a crouched-up man with messy hair. He looked roughly middle-aged. His clothes had been stained black with blood. There were several holes from his throat to his chest. His abdomen could not be seen clearly anymore. But it must be a general situation.
The middle-aged man had already lost his breath, and he should have died directly in the hunting trap created by the Greedy Wolf Gang.
"Tsk, tsk." When Jiang Yichen was stunned for a moment, Hongye had already opened five spider eggs.
"What?" Jiang Yichen asked nervously.
"No one survived, and all of them died in the trap. It seems that they are all mountain gangsters with particularly strong bodies but average hands and feet. I think these are just ordinary bait." Hong Ye said.
"So the higher the martial arts, the more nutritious food is for these spiders?" Jiang Yichen asked.
"That should be the case, otherwise the Tusita Gang wouldn't have to go to such trouble." In a moment, Hongye had already opened three more eggs, shaking his head to indicate that there were no survivors, "Hey, don't be stunned, start from the top Cut them apart one by one, and carry down those alive."
Jiang Yichen did as he was told, went to another corner, stepped on the thick spider eggs, jumped up to the top of the ten-foot-high pile, scratched the eggs and started working.
After opening three or four eggs, Jiang Yichen's expression was gloomy, and he was even more disheartened, because no one inside was alive.
