Almost at the same time, Su Tingyu also made a discovery and looked up at the sky in shock.
Cui Yougui, Zhu Xiucai and others also raised their heads after hearing her warning.
However they saw nothing.
The thin rain in the sky was too thin, and the night was dark at the moment. Everyone's eyes were not as sharp as Qin Shao's, so it was difficult to detect it.
Zhu Xiucai tried his best to open his eyes wide, but unfortunately his eyes were too small and could not be opened no matter how big they were.
He saw nothing, so he could only ask: "What is there in the sky? Is it a monster?"
"I don't know if there are any monsters at the moment, but there are spider threads falling from the sky. They are the kind of weird spider threads that are found on many people in this county."
Qin Shaoyou quickly recounted his findings, and then ordered: "Let the brothers who are ambushing elsewhere quickly escape into the earth and trees to avoid being contaminated by these spider silks and exposing their traces."
"Yes." Zhu Xiucai accepted the order, immediately reached into his arms, took hold of his chief flag officer waist badge, and poured blood into it.
The next second, the night watchmen who were ambushing inside and outside the inn all felt that their night watch badges were getting hot.
They immediately understood that they would be in danger of being exposed, and without any hesitation, they activated their escape talismans and hid in the trees and soil.
However, these night watchmen were also very curious. They didn't even see the shadow of the demon ghost, so how could they be in danger of being exposed? Where was the demon ghost hiding?
Qin Shaoyou and the few people around him did not hide in the buildings.
Because Qin Shaoyou activated the mimicry order.
This supernatural item allows him and the people around him to achieve mimicry and perfectly integrate with the surrounding environment.
In this state, even if a spider's thread falls on them, they will only be regarded as the rubble of the roof beams here, and will not realize that they are flesh and blood, let alone let them be exposed.
Soon, the silk rain in the night sky fell into the inn.
With the distance getting closer, and the light from the lanterns inside the inn, everyone finally saw the spider threads.
They seemed to be alive. After landing, they immediately moved towards the room in the inn.
To be precise, go to an occupied room.
The twisting and crawling posture of these spider silks is like that of a snake, making people's scalp tingle.
Some spider silks also fell on Qin Shaoyou and others' bodies, but under the influence of the mimicry order, these spider silks did not notice anything wrong at all and quickly crawled away from their bodies.
Zhu Xiucai couldn't help but take a breath of cold air as he watched countless spider threads slip into Datong Shop through the gaps in the doors and windows.
He whispered: "No wonder we are asked to block the doors and windows. It turns out that these ghosts really got into the house through the doors and windows. But with such thin spider threads, even if the doors and windows are blocked tightly, they can't be prevented..."
Monk Ma clenched his Zen staff tightly and asked uncontrollably, "Sir, do you want to take action?"
"Not in a hurry."
Qin Shaoyou swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
If it were just a few strands of spider silk, it would not be very tempting, but when so many spider silks gathered together, the desire to eat in Qin Shaoyou's heart doubled.
He resisted the urge to eat more immediately and said in a deep voice: "These spider silks are just a surveillance method of monsters and ghosts. Even if they are all destroyed, it will not be of much significance. It will only alert the snake."
"Best regards, sir!" Zhu Xiucai flattered him promptly.
"Then where will this monster be? In the sky?" Monk Ma raised his hand and pointed at the night sky.
Qin Shaoyou is not sure either.
But Cui Yougui made a discovery: "It's not the sky. I just opened my Dharma Eyes and looked at it. After all the spider silk fell down, there was no ghost aura in the sky."
Su Tingyu echoed: "The same is true for the demonic smell I smelled. After the spider threads fell, there was no demonic smell in the sky. If the demonic ghost was really hiding in the night sky, it would not have been possible to remove it so quickly.
The evil spirit and smell are hidden. On the contrary, I smelled the evil smell in the wind that blew just now."
"wind?"
Su Tingyu's words reminded Qin Shaoyou.
Just when the spider silk rain fell, a strong wind blew in this county.
Since Su Tingyu said that the strong wind is mixed with the smell of monsters...
Then could this wind be blown by the demon who kidnapped the child?
It blew strong winds and blew the spider silk into the sky, allowing it to fly all the way into the county town, where it then rained down in the form of spider silk.
If this is the case, the place where the demon blows the strong wind must be at a high place.
Only by being at a high place can the wind blow the spider silk smoothly into the sky.
Qin Shaoyou told this speculation and was immediately recognized by everyone.
"But where is the high place around here?" Cui Yougui asked.
Zhu Xiucai recalled it and said: "There is a mountain more than ten miles south of the county seat...could it be there?"
"It's very possible!" Mr. Qin said: "That mountain is probably the home of demons and ghosts."
Cui Yougui asked Zhu Xiucai in surprise: "How do you know there is a mountain more than ten miles south of the county seat?"
Zhu Xiucai smiled proudly: "I am a patrol officer. Whenever I go to a place, it is my habit to inquire about the situation in and around the place. Although I could not get the information about monsters and ghosts from the postmen before, I did.
I’ve learned all about the customs and geography of this place.”
After saying this, he asked Qin Shaoyou for a tassel.
"Sir, would you like me to take a few brothers and go to the mountains to the south to check?"
"I'd better go."
Cui Youyou realized that this was an opportunity to show off, and hurriedly competed for the task, even making a big concession: "I found the monster, and I promise not to kill it, but I will beat it half to death, and wait for you to give it the final blow."
Qin Shaoyou was just about to make arrangements when his expression suddenly changed.
Zhu Xiucai noticed this situation keenly and asked quickly: "Sir, what happened?"
Qin Shaoyou quickly made arrangements: "The paper man warned that there are demons in the city that are catching children. Xiucai, please leave a few people to continue to watch here, and the rest will follow me to catch ghosts and kill them!"
"yes!"
Zhu Xiucai immediately followed the pre-agreed signal and conveyed the news to the night watchmen who were ambushing inside and outside the post station.
Monk Ma, Cui Yougui, Su Jianqing, Su Tingyu and others immediately used escape techniques or activated escape talismans, and followed Qin Shaoyou to the location where the paper man warned.
This place was exactly the house where a child peered out of the window when we entered the city in the evening.
At this moment, this house is wrapped in countless spider silks, looking like a huge silk cocoon.
The doors and windows that were originally tightly closed and blocked with wooden boards were all pried open and pulled open by spider silk.
Although a single spider silk is very thin and weak, when countless spider silks are gathered together, they are powerful and strong.
Not to mention doors and windows, even brick walls can be penetrated and pried open.
Inside the house, the child's parents were covered in spider webs.
These spider silks also penetrated into their bodies, releasing toxins and causing them to fall into a deep sleep, completely unaware that their home had turned into a strange and terrifying appearance.
The child was awakened.
He looked in horror and helplessness at the spider threads coming towards him from all directions like a tide, and screamed.
Unfortunately, his screams could not wake up his sleeping parents, nor could he wake up the neighbors.
On the contrary, amidst his screams, a silk cocoon hanging on the beam of his house burst open with a 'wave'.
A strange, inhuman figure emerged from the silk cocoon, and with a blood-curdling laughter, it flew towards the desperate child.
