Chapter 252: Even a glimmer of hope has to be tried
The story of the ghost spider, all the people in southern Xinjiang know, at first it was said that the most powerful Gu practitioner in the entire southern Xinjiang practiced a ghost spider for his own use, and then it was counterattacked, and the ghost spider was a disaster to the world, and then it was sealed into the ghost spring by the masters.
And this story has been passed down for a long time, she had heard this kind of story when she was a child, but she didn't think that the ghost spider was real!
"Exactly, Rong'er, you don't know, there are always exaggerated elements in legends, the Nether Spider is a strange beast that has guarded the Netherworld Spring for generations, and it is also the last barrier in ancient southern Xinjiang to protect the treasure, the Netherworld Spider has been following the Netherworld Spring for many years, I thought the Nether Spider was long gone, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful today."
"And the ghost spider has a strong sense of territory, whenever a stranger approaches, it can detect and attack at the first time, just like the way it rolled people into silkworm chrysalis before, and hanged people alive with spider silk......"
Luo An's slightly hoarse voice slowly told the origin of the ghost spider, after listening to Luo An's words, everyone was even more solemn, no one thought that the origin of the ghost spider was so big.
Their trip was to get the blood Bodhi and treasure in the Nether Spring, and if there was a Nether Spider guarding it, the difficulty of this task would increase a lot.
"Since our opponent is so strong this time, it seems that we need to plan carefully." After Xie Qingyu listened to Luo An's words, she knew the difficulty of this trip even more in her heart, but she had no way back, she couldn't retreat at all.
For the sake of her mother, she can only get Blood Bodhi!
"Miss Liu isn't scared at all?" Luo An originally thought that everyone would have a hint of retreat after hearing about the ghost spider, but Xie Qingyu looked eager to try, which was really interesting.
"Now that we've reached the last step, we can't retreat because of a big spider." Xie Qingyu didn't think so, some things already had an inevitable result, no matter how scared he was, it would be useless, so it was better to think of more ways to do it.
"Liu Yao, you are sometimes a little weaker like a woman, otherwise when will you find someone to marry!" Liluo looked at Xie Qingyu like this, and persuaded him bitterly.
Xie Qingyu in the Xie family may be called everyone's girlfriend, but Xie Qingyu, who goes out, wears men's clothes all day long, but his behavior is so arrogant.
Xie Qingyu listened to Liluo's words, but instead smiled slyly and said softly to Liluo.
"Wan'er girl~"
This is when he was in the illusion that day, Liluo shouted a girl's name, although Xie Qingyu didn't know what Liluo dreamed of, but looking at Liluo's movements, he could guess that he was not far from ten.
Liluo looked at Xie Qingyu's words, and instantly understood what Xie Qingyu meant, and immediately his face darkened, if it was known that he had such a humiliating dream in the illusion, he was a dashing swordsman, how could he gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future!
"Liu Yao, no matter what you do, it's right! Always support you! Liluo instantly changed his face and said with a smile.
The atmosphere that was originally very tense instantly became less serious because of Xie Qingyu and Liluo's bickering.
Luo Rong looked at Xie Qingyu so casually, for the first time in his life, he envied Xie Qingyu, last night Nangong Chengyu had rejected her in front of everyone, although Nangong Chengyu said that he belonged to him, and did not say who that person was, but Luo Rong knew that that person was Xie Qingyu!
It's an intuition, and sometimes it's the most accurate thing.
"Okay, you two don't want to make trouble, let's think about how to subdue that ghost spider first." Nangong Chengyu also instructed the two of them lightly, although he said so, but his face was unconsciously a little doting.
"Rong'er, it's better to give up as soon as possible." At this time, Luo An also saw Luo Rong, who was sad on the side, and comforted him softly.
When Nangong Chengyu spoke last night, he was also there, in fact, from the first time they entered the tribe, he had already noticed that there would be a master who would hold his guards, and he was very anxious.
Luo Rong turned his head to look at the eldest brother, there seemed to be tears in his eyes, but he endured it again, and looked at the three people in front of him who were talking and laughing, and Luo Rong even realized that he seemed to be the same kind of person as Nangong Chengyu from beginning to end.
She will never be able to understand Nangong Chengyu's mind with a single look like Xie Qingyu.
Unconsciously, night had fallen, and Xie Qingyu and the others were still talking about ways to deal with the big spider, but after talking around, there was no feasible way.
"If we don't kill the big spider, we won't be able to take what is at the bottom of the spring." Liluo said with a determined face.
"Now the power of the Nether Spider has also been seen by the guards, but I'm afraid that ordinary methods won't work." Luo An shook his head when he heard this, and now he still needs a specific method.
Liluo pondered for a long time, and then remembered the scene of the prince fighting the giant python that day, and his eyes lit up.
"Blow it up with dynamite!"
"We're long gone with explosives." Xie Qingyu shook his head and said very calmly.
Everything had been used to deal with the pythons that day, and now that the Nether Spiders were so large, what they had now was not enough to deal with.
Liluo listened to Xie Qingyu's words, and instantly wilted and lowered his head.
"Let's not talk about the Nether Spider for now, the layer of spider silk on the surface of the spring alone is already blocking us." Nangong Chengyu looked at the arguing appearance of everyone, and said lightly.
Then, several people quieted down, His Royal Highness the Prince was right, no matter what, they had to enter the water, but according to the situation on the surface of the spring today, let alone spiders, they couldn't even deal with the spider silk on the surface.
"When I jumped into the Netherworld Spring, I accidentally got a small piece of spider silk on my body, I don't know if it can come in handy." At this time, Luo An took out the spider silk from his own baggage, just now Shizi and Xie Qingyu only focused on healing, and did not notice the existence of the spider silk, and he was worried that it would be useful, so he put the spider silk away.
When Xie Qingyu heard this, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took the spider silk, which was transparent and very tough.
Originally, she wanted to go directly to the mouth of the Netherworld Spring, but no one knew when the big spider would come out, and if she rushed, it would be dangerous.
But now Luo An has taken out such a piece of spider silk, which saves a lot of trouble.
Xie Qingyu took out the dagger that had been prepared a long time ago from his arms, and stabbed it downward, the spider silk did not react at all, although it was a layer of silk, but there was not even a scratch, but a trace appeared on the blade of the dagger.
When everyone saw this, they also understood the meaning of Xie Qingyu, and they all took out the things on their bodies, and everyone began to try it for a while.
Liluo took out the fire fold he carried with him and burned it directly towards the spider silk, but the spider silk was only slightly blackened and had no tendency to break.
Later, everyone tried some more methods, but the spider silk was still intact as before.
"Shizi, this spider silk can be said to be fearless and invulnerable." Liluo explained to everyone very seriously, today he has been experimenting with Xie Qingyu for a long time just for the method, but there is no one that can destroy the spider silk.
Now not only can't they settle the spider, but even the silk spit by the spider can't solve it, and everyone is in a stalemate for a while.
Xie Qingyu also thought seriously at this moment, what could break something that swords kept chopping?
Think of a way, find a way.
Xie Qingyu thought about it, and suddenly remembered a movie he had seen in modern times, in which the murderer directly used a potion to completely corrode that person after killing someone, leaving no trace.
This powerful thing is sulfuric acid!
If there is sulfuric acid, it must be something that can corrode everything, and steel can corrode something, and a small piece of spider silk must be a problem, but now in ancient times, how can there be sulfuric acid here.
"Miss Liu, what do you think?" Luo An just raised his head just now and saw the ecstasy that flashed on Xie Qingyu's face, although it dissipated in an instant, but Xie Qingyu must have come up with something.
Xie Qingyu thought for a moment at first, and finally made up his mind, and slowly explained to everyone.
"The eldest prince, I know that there is a kind of water in the world that can corrode everything, I don't know if the eldest prince has heard of it?" Xie Qingyu did not directly say the name of sulfuric acid, but an unknown potion instead.
Nangong Chengyu listened to Xie Qingyu's words, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes, and he looked at the two of them with a meaningful discussion, he knew Xie Qingyu very well, and he would definitely not say such things for no reason, this potion must be a little strange.
"Miss Liu, you mean to use it to corrode the spider silk?" Luo An instantly understood the purpose of Xie Qingyu, and said it with great interest.
He hadn't heard of this potion, but if he only wanted the effect of corrosion, he might have concocted it.
"Exactly, the eldest prince is a person who knows medical skills, but have you ever heard of this potion, or this corrosive medicinal powder." Xie Qingyu doesn't know how to heal, she can only come up with some ideas for Luo An, but Luo An still needs to get the specific things.
"I have also read through the knowledge of this kind of medicinal powder from the secret art of Southern Xinjiang, but most of them are cursory readings, and I have not read them carefully, but I still have some memory!" Luo An seemed to have thought of something based on Xie Qingyu's idea, and there was a faint excitement in his eyes.
"Even if the eldest prince does it, I will definitely help from the side." Xie Qingyu heard Luo An say this, and her hanging heart also let go a little, if it was really useful this time, then it was completely possible for her to get the Blood Bodhi!
"Miss Liu, is this method really useful?" Luo Rong watched from the side, but he was a little suspicious, everyone saw the ghost spider that day, how powerful it was, it was really a bit far-fetched to be able to develop a method of confrontation just based on what Xie Qingyu said.
"There's no other way now, and now we have to try even a glimmer of hope." When Luo An heard this, he understood what his sister was worried about, but they came here for the treasure of the Netherworld Spring, and if they returned in vain at this moment, and there were so many dead soldiers, he would not have the shame to go back to see his people.
