Chapter 123: Spider Spirit (II)
Ye Da saw that Fan Gu was interested, and immediately began to make up a story, saying that he found a treasure underground, looking for feng shui tips to find it, and finally found that there was something strange under the Russian's house, who knew that when he went in, he found that the Russian was wrapped in spider silk, and the basement was full of spider webs.
Ye Da said, and also grabbed a handful of spider silk that had not been cleaned under the Russian's armpits and clothes, and put it in front of Fan Gu's eyes.
Fan Gu looked at the spider silk carefully, couldn't help but touch it, and found that it was indeed spider silk, and he had never seen so much spider silk, and then looked carefully at the Russian's ears There were still some things that had not been cleaned up, plus Yi Mochen was originally a foreign businessman, so he began to be suspicious of his words.
Ye Dadao: "I didn't expect that there was a spider's nest down there. ”
Fan Gu frowned and said, "This, where is this spider?" It's a spider spirit! ”
Ye Dadao: "How do you know it's a spider spirit?" ”
Fan Gu was stunned: "It's really a spider spirit?" ”
Ye Da pretended to be and said: "Yes, when I bought this news, the person who sold my news said that if it weren't for the spider spirits below, I'm afraid he wouldn't have sold the news to me easily, those spider spirits are not easy to deal with." ”
As he spoke, Ye Da told Fan Gu everything about the habits of the eight-eyed puppet spider, focusing on this kind of spider eating people, and said that the nest was not opened, and it was okay if the spider was not disturbed, but once it was disturbed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Fan Gu was stunned after hearing this: "What should I do?" ”
Ye Da said: "I can't control it so much, I have to make some benefits no matter what." ”
Fan Gu was not a fool, and asked: "You are reaping benefits, why do you want to save this old man?" ”
Ye Dadao: "Are you stupid? If someone dies, won't this news leak out? I've got to get something before the Japanese and the rest of the world know about it, and at least get back to my roots. ”
Fan Gu got up and said, "What should I do if the spider spirit comes out?" ”
Ye Dadao: "I said, I don't care about those, in addition, you have to keep it secret for me, you keep it secret, I will share one-third of your share when you get it, don't say I'm not interesting enough, you don't have to take risks, just help me look at this old man, give you one-third is already earned." ”
Fan Gu hesitated, Ye Da saw that it was almost over, and added: "I told you because I believed you, you must not say it for fear of being harmed by spider spirits, don't worry, when I have a way to leave, I must take you with me, you keep it secret for me, you must keep it secret, and don't tell anyone else." ”
Ye Da turned around and left, no matter what Fan Gu asked after him, he just shook his head, and soon disappeared into the night.
Ye Da repeated several times, "Don't tell others", for Fan Gu, the more he said this, the more Fan Gu would not keep it secret, and he also added a sentence "When I have a way to leave, I must take you with me".
Fan Gu is not a fool, it is precisely because he is not a fool that he knows that Ye Da's words are just words, just empty promises made to keep him secret.
What will Fan Gu do? Will he keep it a secret? He won't, even if he doesn't know if the spider spirit really exists, he won't keep it a secret, because everyone understands one truth, that is, there is power in numbers.
Will Fan Gu denounce the Japanese? Even if he could, he would not have gone in person, because the Russians were now in his house, and a businessman like him knew very well that the matter was directly related to him, and he could not explain it to the Japanese, so whether he wanted to denounce it or believe that there was a spider spirit, he would spread the news like a plague.
Therefore, if you want to spread a message, you must find someone like Fan Gu, tell him the so-called secret, and then repeat and repeat and repeat a sentence - I will only tell you one person about this, you must not tell anyone else.
Then, the person will quickly spread the word, just as you might expect.
When Ye Da returned to the Russian-style building, he lurked on the first floor, quietly listening to the movement in the basement, because he didn't know the situation, he didn't dare to appear rashly.
And Tang Qianlin and the others were also standing there, watching Maeda Masaji command the soldiers to dig the soft soil in the corner, and a plan popped up in his mind, but this plan could not be implemented because he burned all the cobwebs.
Now that Ye Da should be back, how can he naturally appear in front of Maeda Masaji?
Eventually, the soft soil was dug up, and there was a deep cave underneath, but the cave was not dug by hand, and it seemed that it was the work of the eight-eyed puppet spider.
Maeda commanded the soldiers to disperse, aimed a flamethrower at the hole, and threw an incendiary bomb into it with his own hands.
The moment the incendiary bomb burned in the cave, everyone heard the screams of the eight-eyed puppet spider under their feet, and then they also felt a large amount of heat coming out of the ground, it seems that the soil under the basement has been dug up by the eight-eyed puppet spider in all directions, which is also covered with spider webs, the flames of the incendiary bomb ignited the spider webs, and also caused the entire passage below to burn, which caused everyone to feel as if they were standing on the stove.
"We can't stay here any longer!" Tang Qianlin turned around and walked up the stairs, but because there was still that kind of silver spider silk on the stairs, he couldn't move forward as fast as he could.
Maeda Masaji commanded the soldiers to slowly retreat, his eyes still locked on the mouth of the cave, when suddenly a spider with fire jumped out of the cave and pounced on him.
The soldiers next to him immediately aimed their flamethrowers at the spider and sprayed flames, and the rest of the soldiers followed suit, but they didn't notice that a lot of the ground around them had been dug up by the spiders underground, and they were pouring up.
The moment the cave was dug up, the spiders gushed out and the flames were brought out, and Masaji Maeda and two soldiers were soon surrounded.
Just when Maeda Masaji brandished a katana and split the spiders that surged up, but because he was outnumbered, he was directly thrown to the ground, and the corners of his clothes were also ignited.
Tang Qianlin reached out and grabbed Masaji Maeda's hand, pulled him up, and ran towards the position at the top of the stairs.
The remaining two Mikawas soldiers frantically burned the spiders that pounced on them with flamethrowers, but to no avail, the spiders seemed to know what jade shatters were better than the Japanese, and pounced on them one by one with flames, trying to die with the Japanese soldiers.
In the flames, the two remaining Japanese soldiers shouted the slogan "Long live His Majesty the Emperor", pulled out the incendiary bombs they carried with them, and instead pounced on the eight-eyed puppet spiders that rushed up.
When Tang Qianlin and the others returned to the first floor with difficulty, they found that there was already a sea of fire below.
Maeda Masaji stood there stunned, already dumbfounded, thinking more about the consequences that had led to such a result because of his rash actions.
This is also the reason why Tang Qianlin wants to save him, he needs Maeda Masaji to live, if he and the Japanese soldiers die below, then Kyoji Miyake will think it was his idea.
The flames in the basement quickly burned to the first floor, and everyone had to withdraw, and when they were evacuating, Tang Qianlin saw Ye Da in the corner, and he motioned for Ye Da to leave, but Ye Da shook his head slightly.
Tang Qianlin probably understood what Ye Da meant, and immediately left with Maeda Masaji and the others.
After rushing out of the Russian-style building, the first floor was already engulfed in flames, Maeda Masaji thought for a moment and shouted: "Fight the fire!" Fast! ”
When the Japanese soldiers began to put out the fire, Ye Da, who was covered in scars, rushed out of the fire and fell to the ground, Tang Qianlin immediately pounced, Ye Da glanced at him, and then closed his eyes and pretended to faint.
Ye Da didn't go out before, but also to create an illusion that he was the last to leave the fire, so that he would not be discovered by Masaji Maeda.
Maeda Masaji couldn't take care of Ye Da's affairs at this time, and he had to put out the fire, because the fire was too big, and the press corps would find out that the task given to him by Kyoji Miyake was also a failure.
The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the surrounding people tried to join in the firefighting, but were stopped by the soldiers and did not allow them to enter the confines of the street.
Fan Gu, who urgently needed to know the truth, hurriedly climbed up to a tall building next to him, and stood on it and cautiously looked at the burning Russian-style building.
At this moment, an eight-eyed puppet spider with fire suddenly popped out of the fire.
The spider didn't rush long before it fell to the ground and died of its injuries, and the Japanese soldiers immediately stepped forward and continued to burn with flamethrowers, although they kept the people out of the street, but according to Maeda Masaji's orders, they formed a human wall to surround the dead and burning spider corpse.
Fan Gu in the high place saw it clearly, he sat on the ground with his ass, such a big spider, what is it if he is not a spider spirit?
It seems that Yi Mochen is not lying! This matter is not so simple, Fan Gu thought quickly, and then hurriedly went downstairs and ran towards another antique shop.
At the same time, in the station of the press corps, everyone found the flames in the distance, except for Alimo, all the members of the League of Nations press corps stood at the window and watched in wonder, not knowing what was happening.
Yefeng looked out the window for a while, and then looked at Alimo who was still eating.
Fadeev opened the window, and the moment he opened it, he could smell the wind with the smell of all kinds of things mixed together, and there was an indescribable stench, as if a corpse was being burned.
The moment the smell reached the lounge and into Alimo's nose, Alimo put down the food in his hand and rushed towards the window, standing there staring at the direction of the incineration.
Yefeng looked at Alimo, only to see that Alimo was staying there.
Yefeng was vigilant in her heart, but she still tentatively walked towards Alimo and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Alimo looked at Yefeng, but smiled, laughing very strangely, like a person who was sad in his heart, in order to hide his sadness, deliberately squeezed out a smile.
Alimo's eyes had lost focus, and he turned around and slowly walked back to his place, where he sat and continued to eat, still so greedy, but with tears in his eyes.
Yefeng was completely puzzled, is this person a host? A host parasitized by a female spider is equivalent to a puppet, and the puppet has no feelings, let alone tears.
Also, what happened to the place where the fire started? How could this Alimo have such a big reaction?
