Countless small giant spiders jumped out of the trees, under the trees, beside the rocks, and in the mud holes, although these small giant spiders were far less large than those huge giant spiders, but they were more agile and numerous, making it more difficult for these recruits who had not yet experienced the battle formation to dodge in the dark.

Not counting at this time, the sky had begun to rain lightly, although it rained, it could not stop the attack of these giant spiders in the slightest, but only provoked their madness even more.

Yan Juncao picked up a spear stuck in the ground, rode his horse and ran back and forth, dancing with the spear in his hand to assassinate many small giant spiders, he shouted loudly: "Quick! Use fire! ”

But at this time, although the rain was not heavy, the flames on the torches had been obviously suppressed, and they seemed to be extinguished.

Although some people heard Yan Juncao's order, they had no way to think of a way to start a fire.

Li Tianqi said to Nangong Shuo and Qin Guo: "Hurry up and let go of the horses in the carriage, make a fire under the carriage, and add some fire oil, otherwise it will be difficult to burn in the rain." I'm going to save people. ”

With that, he had already jumped out of the way, casting spells to save many recruits.

Nangong Shuo and Qin Guo took out some stockpiled firewood according to Li Tianqi's words and lit a fire under the carriage. When the others saw this, they did what they had done, and raised a fire under the carriage.

The five archers hurriedly stepped forward, dipped the arrows in the oil, lit them in the fire, and shot several small giant spiders in succession.

Some people even used the firewood to light some bundles of haystacks, and the blazing fire illuminated the surroundings, because the vision was clear, and Yan Juncao also took the lead in rushing back and forth, at this time the military spirit was much more stable than when he was suddenly attacked in the dark.

Li Tianqi used all his strength to kill dozens of little giant spiders one after another, at this time he felt that his strength was weak, and after casting the spell, he was even more anxious, he knew in his heart that although the mana was not affected by the internal force, but it still consumed energy, in the absence of strong internal force support, continue to cast spells, and consume spiritual power, but the physical strength of normal people will also decline with the loss of spiritual power, at this time, physical strength will lead to the restriction of spell casting, and he experienced the tense battle last night, at this time, he was casting spells one after another to remove dozens of small giant spiders, The physical strength has been slightly exhausted.

It is also a blessing in misfortune, although the clouds are thick, but the rain is not heavy, and those burning fires are not wet by the rain, but they give everyone hope, and they all know that this is a sudden encounter, fighting against the water, all of them bravely fight the group of giant spiders.

After everyone's desperate fighting, the attacking giant spiders were all wiped out, and they all curled up in a ball and scattered everywhere.

At this time the rain had ceased, and the clouds had gradually dispersed, revealing the sun in the west, and after this battle, all the people were exhausted, and they sat down on the ground to rest, despite the mud on the ground.

This battle caused the team to lose more than a dozen people. Yan Juncao had to arrange for someone to bury these people. He and seven or eight men were also attacked, all poisoned and rotten, and buried on the other side.

Yan Juncao's face was muddy and embarrassed, he walked over and sat next to Li Tianqi and said, "Little brother, I really shouldn't be greedy for merit to build the bridge, alas...... I regret not being at the beginning. ”

Li Tianqi shook his head and said: "It's not your fault, it's because there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and no one expected that this sunny day will change." ”

Yan Juncao sighed: "Actually, I should have thought of it a long time ago, in this land of Sichuan and Shu, the weather is always unpredictable, which is unpredictable." He exhaled and asked, "What do you think will be in this spider's nest?" ”

Li Tianqi said: "There must be a head, maybe it's a female spider." But it must not be a good thing. ”

Yan Juncao took a bite and went to the ground, scolding and scolding: "Lao Tzu has walked here countless times, but I have never seen this kind of thing, since it is our enemy everywhere, why don't we look for it?" Pulling it out can also comfort the souls of the fallen brothers. ”

Li Tianqi was in awe, "Jun Cao, we can indeed turn passive into active, but now that everyone is tired and demoralized, if we ask for everyone's opinion, the effect may be much better." ”

Yan Juncao said with a smile: "You kid also have some ideas, are you afraid that I will use military orders to order them, and they will not obey it, right?" ”

"Military orders are like mountains, and they have to obey." Li Tianqi arched his hand and said, "It's just for now...... What is needed at the moment is everyone's concerted efforts, if everyone is not united at this time, although obeying military orders is counterproductive, then we don't need to find the nest of this giant spider, it is better to evacuate quickly, but if everyone works together, then it is impossible to work together to get rid of the monster that harms the place. Otherwise, next time there are people or other people who accidentally break in, it will be troublesome. ”

Yan Juncao nodded and said, "Okay!" Then do as you say! But I may ...... to the words," he looked straight at Li Tianqi.

Li Tianqi said: "Then I'll talk about it." ”

After speaking, Li Tianqi got up and walked to the middle of the team, and said loudly: "Brothers! Veterans! Last night and Fang Cai, we were attacked by giant spiders twice, we have friends and teammates who died at the hands of these monsters who thought they were extraordinary, you say, as Tang soldiers, can a seven-foot man with flesh and blood and affection bow his head in front of monsters? ”

The army shouted in unison: "No! ”

Li Tianqi continued: "Are we brave soldiers? ”

The army shouted in unison: "We are brave soldiers!" ”

Li Tianqi looked left and right at the soldiers who were sitting or standing on the road, "Do we want to avenge them!" ”

Again, the army shouted in unison: "Yes!" ”

Li Tianqi shouted loudly: "Do we still have strength? ”

The army shouted three times: "Yes! Yes! Yes! They all raised their fists upward.

Although Yan Juncao agreed with Li Tianqi's words on the surface, he still felt a little apprehensive in his heart about not using military orders to command the army, thinking that there would be fewer people who might respond, and he was indeed a little afraid that speaking in front of everyone would lose his prestige, so he used the excuse to let Li Tianqi speak, but what surprised him was that the remaining more than 100 people were actually enthusiastic.

Yan Juncao muttered: "This kid really has the material to be a soldier!" ”

He immediately stood up, walked to Li Tianqi's side, took over the conversation and said, "Everyone is happy!" I saw it, but I, like everyone, am a flesh-and-blood person, and I am different from you, I am a soldier who knows the weight of my responsibility! I was sad to see new recruits and veterans fall in front of me. We want to avenge them! ”

The armies responded with a loud voice: "Revenge! Avenge! Avenge! ”

After boosting morale, everyone rested for half an hour, Yan Juncao made some arrangements, and some people were assigned to escort the injured people in carriages to continue to the base camp, while the others brought dry food and prepared torches to start searching for the giant spider's nest.

In the woods, one hundred and twenty men divided into several rows and carefully searched along the upper reaches of the river.

The woods are damp after the rain, and many footprints are nowhere to be found because of the rain. In order to find useful clues as much as possible, Li Tianqi walked alone to the front a few feet away from the team.

The ground was wet, the flowers and plants were covered with rain, and many fist-sized snails were attached to the flowers and trees and wriggled slowly, bringing out some traces of fluorescence.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected the sunset on the horizon, as if to tell the people in the woods that night was really coming, but at this time everyone had no time to pay attention, their enthusiasm had been ignited by the fighting spirit, there was no prejudice and the difference between the old and the new, at this time they were all comrades who looked after each other and relied on each other.

"Hehe......" A burst of silver-bell-like female laughter came from afar, but it made everyone feel inexplicable.

Li Tianqi waved his hand back, signaling the team behind him not to move, he straightened his waist, arched his hand to the woods in front of him and said, "Who is on the other side?" Why do you laugh all of a sudden? ”

I saw a black-clothed masked woman holding an oil-paper umbrella slowly walking out of the woods ten feet away, "I laugh at you for being stupid." ”

Yan Juncao saw that the other party was just a masked woman in black, and immediately beckoned everyone to slowly get up and move forward.

The black-clothed masked woman was petite, but her voice was very good, "You have been tricked, but you are still here looking for traces of those big spiders?" ”

Li Tianqi arched his hand again and said, "How do you say this? Can you tell us more? ”

The masked woman in black laughed softly: "I could have told you in detail, but it is almost dark at this time, and the little woman is alone, and you are hundreds of soldiers like wolves and tigers, so the little woman does not dare to stay here for long." ”

Although her voice was soft, everyone present could hear it clearly, and the wolf-like warriors she said in her mouth sounded like fear, but her voice told those present that she didn't really care.

Li Tianqi was about to say something more, but when he heard that the black-clothed masked woman had suddenly jumped up, stood on the branch of a broad-leaved tree, and looked down at everyone: "You can't find it here, you need to go back to the side of the bridge when you came, and you will see a small hill along the river until you go up for a while, that is where the giant spider's nest is located, but ...... Hehe......"

Everyone saw a slight black shadow on the branch, and the masked woman in black had disappeared.

They did as the masked girl had suggested, and hurried back to the other end of the bridge, and searched upstream along the river, and sure enough, a small hill appeared two miles from the wooden bridge.

The hill is full of towering trees, and the gaps between the trees are full of thorns, and the thorns are covered with cobwebs, which looks like a small snow-capped mountain from a distance. Under the firelight, the cobwebs were crystal clear and reflected the light.

They did not need to look for it, but when they came near, they saw a cave that had long been ruined, and the cave was open diagonally on the edge of a small hill, and the entrance of the cave was about five or six square in size, and the edge was scattered with gravel and mud, and it was muddy after being washed away by the rain.

It's black and smells musty, what's in there?
