Seeing this kind of scene, I was a little baffled, and my fingers were even habitually pulling the trigger, probably because there were too many spider babies here, so now I feel that my marksmanship has improved rapidly, and almost all guns can be crooked. I hit a few spider babies who were crouching on the ground and gnawed, their bodies twitched the moment they were shot, and then pus and blood began to spurt outward, but they didn't seem to care about their wounds at all, and they were still munching on the corpses of the dead spider babies until they themselves became corpses.

This kind of scene is so weird and bloody that people can't bear to watch it more. I never understood in my heart, these spider babies had driven us to a certain point, how could they suddenly disperse and eat the corpses of their companions?

"Don't look at it, hurry up and withdraw from here, don't break up the formation! Otherwise, when they come back at us later, I'm afraid we won't have such good luck. The old cat said loudly, and then asked everyone to follow him as quickly as possible, keeping us in formation, lest the spider babies suddenly rush at us and catch us off guard.

Everyone is also moving very fast at this time, probably more familiar with each other along the way, so there is much more tacit understanding than before, everyone two or three people coordinate with each other, we are almost in a trotting state, but the formation still maintains the same as before.

We didn't go far before we saw another "battlefield". There are more spider baby carcasses here, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "a river of blood". But in addition to the corpses of the spider babies, several human corpses can be seen here, which have been changed beyond recognition, and their faces are like a pile of flesh. The corpses were covered with wounds, their outer layers of clothing and bodies were glued together, and a foul stench emanated from them. Judging by what they were wearing, these people should be the same group of people who were beheaded by the wolf king. We didn't linger to check which carcasses we were worried about catching up, and we quickly passed through there and continued upwards under the guidance of the old cat.

Only then did I know that the gunshots we heard earlier were the same group fighting with the Spider Baby, and we were already lucky, at least the Spider Baby did not actually kill us, and the group of people in front of us, there were about ten corpses, and they must have been blocked by the Spider Baby.

Lin Xihui observed carefully, she found that those corpses had no weapons on their bodies, and some of the corpses even had their backpacks opened, and an inference can be deduced from this detail, that is, these people either repelled the spider baby, or the spider baby was like what we experienced before, I don't know for what reason, the spider baby suddenly withdrew, so the group of people in front of us must have left alive from there. When these people left, they took away the weapons of the corpses, judging from the details that only a few corpses were opened, they were in a hurry when they left, but they took something from the backpacks of a few corpses, so Lin Xihui felt that the backpacks that were opened by those people should contain the things they had to take away.

I don't know how long I walked like this, but I couldn't see the footprints of the spider babies behind me, and it seemed that the spider babies didn't follow up anymore.

The old cat didn't let everyone rest, but asked everyone to slow down, after all, there was still a group of people in front, and it seemed that the old cat didn't want to startle the snake like this. I asked him, the fire we had with the spider baby just now was very loud, and those few people could definitely hear it, do we still need to hide and hide now?

The old cat didn't mean to talk to me at all, but continued to walk forward with a blank face.

When I thought of the spider baby, I couldn't help but ask Lin Xihui, what is this spider baby? Because their general form is still similar to that of a small baby, except for the slightly larger head, the insect-like way of moving, and the strange bronze mask on the face, the others are almost the same as the children they see on a daily basis.

Lin Xihui patiently explained to me that the spider baby is the most yin thing, and on the 99th day after the baby was born, the baby was drowned alive in the water by his own biological parents. In ancient times, if a baby died on the 99th day before the 100th birthday, it was a bad omen. Be sure to ask the Heavenly Master to chant sutras excessively to appease the baby's resentment.

Legend has it that after the next birth, the body and soul are in a state of "semi-control", which means that the soul does not have full control over the body. It is only after the baby's 100 days, commonly known as "100 years old", that the baby's soul can officially enter the body. Until then, their bodies are not completely controlled. However, if the baby dies on the 99th day, the baby's resentment reaches an extreme, which is why the baby's parents, who drown their own child, because only in this way can the baby's soul absorb all the resentment and become a resentful spirit. And because it was drowned in the water, and the water was a psychic thing, the baby's soul was locked in the water. After the infant is drowned, the seven holes of the infant are opened and the infant body is placed in the drowning water for three days so that the spirits can enter the baby's corpse.

After the resentful spirit is formed, it is a long-term Gu refining process. In this process, 49 poisonous spiders that have eaten each other are stuffed through the seven holes of the baby, and then the baby's corpse is put into a clay pot, and then the clay pot is buried in the earth, and every seven days, it is roasted with an open fire in the place where the clay pot is buried. After ninety-nine eighty-one days, the basic prototype of the spider baby is completed. As long as the slightest mistake in the spider baby will be scattered. So the amount of effort it takes to make a spider baby is unimaginable. And after the completion of the prototype of the spider baby, it is necessary to constantly feed the spider baby fresh human blood, and after a year, the spider baby will become a half-corpse and half-human monster, and will begin to eat fresh meat, as long as it is meat, the spider baby will gnaw without restraint. So we just saw the spider babies eating the dead spider babies.

I can't help but sigh, I used to listen to the doctors of the Miao tribe and talked about their Gu refining over there, but compared to the Gu poison that Lin Xihui said just now, it is a small thing. Lin Xihui talked for a long time before he finished talking about the basic prototype of the spider baby, so it seems that getting a spider baby is really a technical job.

The bald head asked what was the matter with the bronze mask on the head of the spider baby, and why did the unmasked spider baby we saw in the corpse of the wolf king disappear later, and why did the spider baby trap us, but suddenly "let us go"?

After Lin Xihui heard it, she only smiled bitterly and told Team Zhang that she couldn't explain these problems, if according to the normal way of spider babies, spider babies do not have masks, that is, the spider babies in the corpse of the wolf king are "normal". However, Lin Xihui added that in the Shang Dynasty, there were spider babies, and it was the king of Shang who ordered people to make spider babies, and the production process was very bloody, because at that time, when making some evil things, they would do some blessings in order to pray for God's forgiveness. Maybe that's what the mask means. Other than these, Lin Xihui couldn't say anything. She looked at the old cat, probably wondering, what did he think about it? But the old cat had no intention of saying anything other than the fact that it was entirely conducive to our conversation.

"Stand still and don't move." I was startled by the sudden sound, which was accompanied by the sound of a bolt being pulled.

I looked up and saw a gun pointed at us
