Chapter 50: Confusion

Anne lay on her side on the cold ground, a "whoosh" in her ears.

I saw a white ribbon-like thing grazing against his body, and then swept straight towards the crowd.

This thing is extremely fast, shooting out of the darkness and catching you off guard!

A silver light lit up in the darkness, and Lin Shuo's dagger came out of its sheath, cutting the white ribbon in the air.

At the same time, he grabbed Anne's arm and threw her in the direction of the crowd.

Wei Xingshan's eyes were quick, and the gun he had just raised quickly put down, leaving a pair of free hands, intending to catch Anne who was thrown by Lin Shuo.

Unexpectedly, Anne kicked the wall of the cave with her left foot, and in mid-air, she flipped beautifully and landed firmly on the ground.

When the woman was in the air, she had already pulled out the gun at her waist, and this landing happened to face the direction of Lin Shuo.

Anne's smooth movements did not arouse everyone's admiration, because they couldn't take care of it.

"What is it?" Wei Xingshan asked loudly.

The headlamp and flashlight were shining in Lin Shuo's direction, and everyone only saw the man's thin back and the giant bow behind him.

Other than that, nothing can be seen.

"Don't come along. Lin Shuo instructed, and with a shake of his body, he disappeared in everyone's lights.

Anne was in a cold sweat just now, but now she had calmed down a lot, and made a stop gesture to the back: "We'll wait where we are." ”

Everyone was stunned and had not yet come to their senses.

In their field of vision, the man and woman who led the team, one suddenly roared, posed in front of them for a while, and then disappeared again.

The other suddenly fell, immediately reappeared in mid-air, did a set of moves that can only be seen in Olympic gymnastics, landed steadily, and then told them to stop.

What's the situation?

Among this group of people, Wei Xingshan and Yang Tuo were the first to come back to their senses.

Wei Xingshan raised the assault rifle in his hand, and together with Anne's pistol, he aimed at the direction where Lin Shuo disappeared,

Yang Tuo used a flashlight to shine on the ground, and finally saw clearly the half of the white ribbon object that had been cut down by Lin Shuo.

It was made of white translucent silk threads the thickness of the little finger, many of which were twisted together to form such a thing.

Yang Tuo didn't dare to be careless, took out a pair of silicone gloves from his backpack, and slowly squatted down.

He touched the threads, tested the corrosiveness of the thing, and made sure it was okay before picking up one of them.

Yang Tuo felt that the silk thread was very slippery, and there was a thin layer of mucus around it.

"It's like ...... Spider silk?" He Zihong looked closer, a little unsure.

"Wouldn't it?" Liu Qing said, "How can spider silk be so thick?"

"yes. Another mercenary said, "It's as thick as a little finger." ”

Yang Tuo took out the magnifying glass from his bag again, carefully looked at the internal structure of the silk thread, and then nodded: "It's not wrong, it's spider silk." ”

"Then how big should this spider be!" Liu Qing's hairs all over his body stood up at once.

"Miss Anne, Lao Lin just rushed over, and there was not even a lamp. Nothing will happen, right?" Wei Xingshan asked.

Anne didn't answer.

"If something happens to him. Yang Tuo stood up at this time, took off the gloves on his hands, and helped his glasses, "We will die in vain." ”

Wei Xingshan glanced at Yang Tuo and sighed: "This is the reason, but you can't say that." ”

Anne was distracted by Wei Xingshan's words, she put away her pistol, leaned down, and pressed her ears to the ground.

The cave is surrounded by rocks, which is a good environment for Anne to "listen to the mountain".

She was holding a gun just now, looking serious and calm, but in fact, her heart was so chaotic that she didn't even think of her own stunt.

Anne pressed her mind and listened silently to the sound of the earth.

Surprisingly, in the land here, she did not hear any thrilling movements.

She just heard the footsteps of a man, who was walking unhurriedly.

This kind of footstep sound is familiar to Anne these days.

Hearing this voice, she will unconsciously feel a sense of security in her heart.

In the tent late at night, when she couldn't sleep in her sleeping bag, she put her ears to the ground and listened.

Sometimes in Lin Shuo's tent, this kind of footsteps can be heard.

It was confirmed that Lin Shuo was already walking back, and this guy's unhurried steps exuded a sense of calmness, which made Anne completely relieved.

She stood up and wiped the dust off her face with her hands, slightly flustered.

Liu Qing, who was standing behind him, saw Anne's action, everyone was a woman, and she understood in her heart.

So Liu Qing asked, "He's back?"

Anne froze as she wiped her face, and quietly lowered her hand: "Hmm." ”

Sure enough, Lin Shuo's figure appeared in the lights of everyone, he didn't come over, but beckoned: "Come here, it's okay." ”

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

Anne walked a few quick steps, followed Lin Shuo, and asked, "Is it a big spider?"

"It's not. Lin Shuo shook his head.

"Huh?" Anne was surprised.

The judgments of the two biologists, He Zihong and Yang Tuo, could be wrong?

As she walked, Anne slowly picked up a strange smell.

It seems that something is rotting, and if it doesn't stink, it just doesn't smell good.

"Look!" Wei Xingshan called with a flashlight.

Everyone looked at this beam of light and suddenly felt a burst of creepy.

If it hadn't been for the expectation in their hearts, they would have exclaimed.

On the edge of the cave wall of the river in front of us, a huge spider was paralyzed, like a large round table. A large black lump with hairy spikes all over its body.

However, its head has been smashed by Lin Shuo.

"Ah~~" Liu Qing suddenly let out a scream.

"Click!" Click!"" Click!"

All the mercenaries raised their guns.

"What's the situation?!" Wei Xingshan roared.

"It's it......" Liu Qing "swooped" and pulled out the pistol on his waist, "It just moved!"

"It's fine. Yang Tuo said calmly, "It's dead, and it was a nerve reflex when it moved just now." ”

"It scared the hell out of me. Liu Qing put down the gun.

"You scared the hell out of me. Wei Xingshan said sullenly, "Liu Qing, you are from the sniper team, don't be so surprised." ”

"Oh. Liu Qing bowed his head and responded.

"Team Wei! look!" Wei Xingshan's side was another mercenary shouting loudly.

Wei Xingshan's whole person was so frightened that he jumped slightly, and when he turned around, he slapped the soldier's head: "Lao Tzu said it fuckingly!

"There......" the soldier craned his neck and pointed his flashlight in front of him, "there's another one there." ”

Everyone looked at the light, and sure enough, less than ten meters behind the first spider, there was a bigger paralyzed one.

The head, which was a man tall, spread out there, blocking more than half of the entire river.

When everyone passed by this big guy, they clung to the wall on the other side, lowered their heads and closed their eyes, and did not dare to shine a flashlight or headlamp on that thing.

It's so infiltrating that if you look at it, you'll definitely have nightmares at night.

Only He Zihong and Yang Tuo were two outliers, and they squatted there to study for a while, and also collected some tissue samples.

When he walked out of this giant spider, He Zihong still had a smile on his face, and he muttered: "I didn't come in vain, I didn't come in vain." ”

"Teacher, I have a hunch. Yang Tuo said, "We will see a lot of strange species like this in the future." ”

"yes. "No species exists alone, you see there is heat, oxygen, and water, and I think we are likely to find a whole new ecosystem." ”

The two scholars began to get elated in the back, and Anne, who was at the forefront of the line, finally understood why Lin Shuo would deny his previous speculation.

Indeed, not a spider.

It's a lot of it.

After passing by the big spider, everyone passed by more than a dozen dead spider corpses.

The largest one is the one who is one person tall, and the smallest one is the size of a coffee table.

Anne counted, fourteen large spiders in all.

And just as he was stunned, Lin Shuo rushed up and solved it all.

By the time he lay on the ground and listened to the movement, he had already done all of this, and he was already walking back.

The chasing master behind him obviously didn't use it, and even the arrows were well inserted in the quiver.

He just used a dagger to kill the fourteen big spiders in less than a minute in a strange environment that was almost absolutely dark.

Then he walked back like no one.

Lin Shuo, who was walking beside Anne at the moment, was not excited at all, his breathing was very smooth, and Anne could even guess the expression on his face.

It was only then that Anne truly understood what a "hunter" was.

In front of their prey, they are veritable killing machines.

"Your performance just now, failed. Lin Shuo suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" Anne froze.

"Danger is already on your nose and you don't even know it. Lin Shuo said.

"I'm ......," Anne lowered her head slightly, "I was distracted." ”

"A hunter, whether he is good or not is secondary, and keeping his mind is the most important. Lin Shuo said, "In this way, you can at least know how you died." ”

"I made a note of it. Thank you Mr. Lin for your teachings. Anne whispered.

Then Anne thought for a moment and said, "Did you already perceive the danger ahead, and then deliberately said about the satellite phone to disturb my mind and want to test me?"

"What am I testing you for, to hold on when you're full?" Lin Shuo rolled his eyes, "It was too cold just now, my nose was frozen, and it will take some time to recover." Lucky for you, the moment before I was attacked by the spider silk, my sense of smell was restored. ”

"Oh. Anne lowered her head and sighed, "So, the satellite phone leak is true?"

"Nature is true. Lin Shuo said slowly, "You were distracted just now, was it because you suspected something in your heart, but you couldn't believe it?"

"Nope. Anne shook her head quickly, "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I won't be distracted anymore." ”

"It's better to be like that. Lin Shuo nodded, "Ahead, there are more troublesome things." ”
