Chapter 8: The Bloody Battle of Tarantulas
"Dad, let's tie up this dead wolf and drag it away together!" As he spoke, Ling Ke hurriedly tied a knot in the wolf's neck, revealing two long rope ends, holding one end by himself and throwing the other end to Ling Songhua. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Ling Songhua grabbed the rope and asked suspiciously: "What are you dragging it for, it's dead!" ā
"Don't ask, it's too late, run!"
At the urging of Ling Ke, the two dragged the dead wolf and entered the bushes and walked quickly. After running about a kilometer of the road, Ling Ke stopped and leaned down, stretched out his palm and stroked the ground for a while, and suddenly paused in the southeast direction, he pointed to a clearing on the edge of the forest in the distance, and said to Ling Songhua:
"It's coming soon, get there!"
The two of them restarted their steps, and in a few moments, they were in the clearing. There was a thick pile of leaves and dust here, and it creaked when you stepped on it.
Ling Ke took out a steel knife and sliced the body of the dead wolf thrown on the ground from the neck to the lower abdomen, its internal organs and blood scattered all over the ground. Ling Ke picked up the bloodied wolf's internal organs, threw them into the air, and whistled loudly and long.
Ling Songhua stared blankly at his strange behavior, and just as he wanted to ask something, his feet suddenly trembled, and then he jolted. Ling Ke shouted at him: "Dad, the ghost is about to come out, you go and hide in the woods!" ā
At this time, dozens of wolves also rushed to the open space with the smell of blood, and their roars shook the heavens and the earth. At the same time, the dust leaves suddenly churned in the clearing, and a group of unknown black flower monsters emerged from the ground, making a creaking sound to meet the wolves.
Ling Songhua was shocked to see that these monsters turned out to be large tarantulas! Standing upright, the size of their own, they stretched out their long steps, used the three sharp claws at the front end to dig into the throat of the Northeast wolf, and pierced out the chelicerae to instantly pierce the wolf's eyes, and the movement was clean and neat.
The screams of wolves and the sizzling of tarantulas, like polished iron, were mixed together, and waves of sound frightened the birds and the pine forests.
Moreover, Ling Ke was also mixed in the tarantula, fighting side by side with him, he waved the steel knife in his hand, and from a distance, there was blood constantly scurrying under his knife. And the tarantula was quite appreciative, and even one of the largest bodies was back to back with him, forming a tacit alliance, and the corpses of Northeast wolves were lying under the feet of one person and one by one.
For about ten minutes, the scene was full of blood, and the wailing of the Northeast wolves gradually weakened, and most of them were eliminated. Only a dozen remnants of the defeated army were defeated, desperately breaking through and fleeing in the direction of the nearby woods.
Ling Ke shouted in the direction of Ling Songhua: "Dad, hit with a shotgun!" The latter answered, and with the sound of several bullets, three wolves fell to the ground with a whimpering cry of pain.
There were even several wolf beads wielding long claws to chase after the rest of the Northeast wolves, but they were dragged by the largest tarantula next to Ling Ke, preventing them from continuing the pursuit.
Ling Ke glanced at it in puzzlement, and muttered a strange syllable in his mouth. The tarantula listened, waving its chelicerae and gesturing and screaming a few times. Ling Ke realized this and nodded.
Then, he waved his hand to Ling Songhua and said, "Dad, come here." They are our friends, and in my time, tarantulas were pets of humans. ā
Ling Songhua frowned, and walked over against the choking smell of blood and the peculiar smell emanating from the tarantula. He saw dozens of dead wolves being dragged by the spider swarm, spat out white silk from the spinner, wrapped the trophy into the shape of a cicada's cocoon, and pierced it with its chelicera, sucking the venom-liquefied flesh with relish.
"Dad, come over and say hello to the Spider King."
Ling Songhua looked timidly at the Spider King, who was staring at him with two large eyes on its back, flashing with blood, and waving its chelicera to make a few swishing sounds. He squeezed an awkward smile out of his face and shook his hand at it.
"Alright, let's rest for a while. When these tarantulas enjoy the perfect taste, I will discuss with the Spider King to bring a few back to the mine and let them pretend to be ghosts and take care of the house. ā
Ling Songhua was taken aback when he heard this, and said worriedly: "Can this be done, will they eat people?" ā
"No, as long as they are fed, this tarantula is still very friendly to people, and they have superior intelligence, and they have a stronger intelligence than the current dogs."
"By the way, why didn't the Spider King kill the wolves just now?" Ling Songhua asked curiously.
"The reason is simple, it is their nature, and it is also their wisdom. After killing all the wolves, they will be cut off from reproduction, what will they eat and drink in the future? ā
"Ah, there is such a profound insight! Simpler than those humans who cut down in the woods! ā
"Yes, that's why I said, the current earth, let these tarantulas evolve and rule, they are a hundred times stronger than greedy and stupid humans!"
Ling Ke stretched out his hand and stroked the back armor of the Spider King, a warm and affectionate expression appeared on his face, he could meet the same species as himself in the world after 300 million years, just like meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land, he couldn't help but think about it, and his heart was filled with a strong sense of homesickness.
After the tarantulas had eaten and drunk enough, Ling Ke tilted his head, pointed at the spider king for a while, and withdrew a tarantula next to him, picked it up, pulled it into his mouth a few times with his hand, made it look like he was eating, and pointed in the direction of the mountain. At the same time, he smiled, and his mouth made a happy sound.
This series of actions made Ling Songhua next to him also understand, which meant that he went down the mountain to eat good things, and he was very happy.
The Spider King straightened up, drooping his steps in front of him and making a few swishing sounds. After Ling Ke saw it, he happily said to Ling Songhua, "Great, the Spider King agreed." ā
Then, the two of them found four relatively gentle-looking spiders from the spider group, made a farewell gesture to the Pearl King, and walked the way they had always been.
But the two of them had not taken a few steps before they heard the sound of spider chasing behind them, and it caught up, grabbed one of the spiders and drove it back to the colony, while he took the place of the former, and followed the steps of Ling Ke and the other three, and walked forward together.
"What's going on?" Ling Songhua asked puzzled.
"I think the few spiders we brought out just now have an uncoordinated sex ratio, so after this one was replaced, it happened to be two pairs of male and female, so that they could breed in the new place."
"Haha, I see. Ling Ke, you see, on the way here, I want you to marry a wife and have children in the future, but you still don't think so, it's a spider, isn't it the same. ā
"Dad, how many years will it be in the future, don't worry about that idleness, think about it, dare to carry these big insects down the mountain!"
"Ah, I still have to carry it!" When Ling Songhua heard this, he shuddered.
"It can't be helped, you have to be courageous!" Ling Ke looked at Ling Songhua, who was frightened and helpless, and said with a gloating smile.
