Wu Qiudao looked at this half-human, half-spider monster and was so frightened that he crawled back several steps.
He swallowed: "You...are you a spider spirit?"
Xiu Niang took two steps forward, and her six spider legs started to move, which was even more terrifying. Wu Qiudao was so frightened that he jumped up and hid behind the stinky chisel-tooth corpse, and even threw the Seven Stars and Five Stars Sword on the ground.
do not care.
Xiu Niang knew that she had scared her benefactor, so she quickly blinked the four eyes on her face and said, "My benefactor, don't be afraid. My little girl is a remnant of the ancient country of Xiling, not a spider-turned-spirit monster in folklore!"
Wu Qiudao exposed his head and took a look, then hid behind the corpse and said in a loud voice: "You are lying, the Xiling clan is an ancient human clan that was married to Emperor Xuanyuan, how could you grow up like you...you?"
"
Seeing that she was despised by her benefactor, Xiu Niang said aggrievedly: "We, the Xiling clan, have always looked like spiders with human faces! The ancient clans had different appearances, including Chisel Teeth, Feather People, Dragonborn, Mermaids, Flying Sky, and Elves.
, the Sky Fox has also conquered all over the world, and the people in the world are not the only ones with naked insect appearance like Bengong!"
It turns out that according to the history told by Xiu Niang, in this world, ordinary people like me have no scales, no armor, no hair and no feathers, so they are called "naked insects" by the Zhuxia clan.
In addition, the Suiren clan was the first to use fire flames, so the naked insect clan was also called the "Yan clan". However, in addition to the Yan clan, other demihuman clans also spread all over the world.
The dragon descendants of the Huaxu clan have "human heads and snake bodies, with scaly spines", the Tushan clan's sky foxes have "suisui white foxes with nine tails", and the Xiahou clan's feathered people have "hairy bodies and deformed arms".
"As wings", Dayu himself also has the appearance of a feathered people with "Yu's ears have three leaks, and he has a long head and beak".
Even though the Yan descendants who now occupy all parts of the Central Plains are basically naked and hairy, in ancient times they also had strange appearances such as Shun's eyes with double pupils, Tang's arms and elbows, King Wen's four breasts, and King Wu's Wangyang.
Among those who intermarried with the Xiling family was the Xiong family. Emperor Xuanyuan himself had the appearance of a snake with four sides and a dragon face. It is said that Lei Zu, the ancestor of the Xiling family who married him, once criticized his husband's appearance.
.
The embroiderer girl was still a little angry. She raised the spider's belly and a ball of white spider silk spewed out from the tail and abdomen.
The embroiderer picked up the silk ball and said to Wu Qiudao: "If Emperor Xuanyuan hadn't envied our Xiling clan's silk weaving skills, asked to marry our Xiling clan's Lei Zu, and learned the art of sericulture, I'm afraid you descendants of Yan would still be wearing fur today.
Wearing horns, you are a barbarian with no hair!"
Wu Qiudao felt a little embarrassed after hearing the complaints from Xiu Niang, the spider girl of Xiling family, but when he saw Xiu Niang's ciliated lower abdomen moving, he felt like he was seeing a huge spider, with his scalp
itch.
Seeing the fear in her benefactor's heart, the embroiderer paced a few times and hid the spider's body in the thick shadows, exposing her upper body as much as possible. She only wore a thin sling gauze, with bulging white jade balls hanging in the air.
Dirty, eye-catching.
The embroiderer made a prayer with her hands: "My dear benefactor, I have heard the love story between Lei Zu and Emperor Xuanyuan since I was a child. I don't think I can actually meet a visitor from the surface today. I am so lucky! My little girl is willing to recommend the pillow mat to serve you.
The joy of flying, I wonder what your heart is like?"
Wu Qiudao's face turned red, but he thought that he was not a Fuli control and could not accept such a large scale. He smiled and said: "I heard a joke from the ancients, saying that when a woman encounters someone to rescue her, she has to see what the savior looks like.
how."
The spider girl embroiderer was stunned for a moment: "Why is this? Why should saving someone's life depend on the appearance of the benefactor?"
Wu Qiudao explained: "Of course you have to watch! If the rescued woman thinks that her benefactor is handsome, she can say, 'There is no way to repay the kindness of saving life. In this life, I can only repay the great kindness with my life!'"
Xiu Niang smiled: "It's very good, just as I thought, but Xiu Niang, I don't covet my benefactor's good looks."
Wu Qiudao added: "Then there is another way! If you look at the benefactor's ugly appearance, you can only say, 'There is no way to repay the kindness of saving my life. I can only repay the great kindness by wearing a grass ring in the next life and working as a cow or a horse!"
'"
Spider Girl's face froze: "This... this is human nature, but I think the kindness in this life will be repaid in this life, and the grievances and grudges in the next life will also be entangled in the next life."
Wu Qiudao made a serious face: "We, as knights, draw our swords to help when there is an injustice, and save people's lives just for the sake of enlightenment. Don't drag me to the low level of repaying kindness!"
The complexion on Xiu Niang's face had visibly deteriorated a lot. She tried her best to make a nonchalant expression, but that beautiful face only made Wu Qiudao feel even more distressed when she looked at it. Even the four originally weird eyes were...
Seems very pitiful.
Wu Qiudao, you have to be frightened! Don't be fooled by the beauty spider trick! Face is not important! Don't be soft-hearted! Remember: her lower body is a big spider! The kind with burrs.
Ahhh!!!
Spider Girl's face was tangled: "I'm so embarrassed, little girl! Xiu Niang, I...I was just...feeling for the moment, I didn't mean to!"
Wu Qiudao looked at Xiu Niang seriously: "If you are moved by emotion, don't have any excessive thoughts!"
The embroiderer rolled her eyes at Wu Qiudao affectionately: "My little girl doesn't dare, after all, it's the servant who has taken the high road!"
Wu Qiu said righteously: "It's because I don't understand Fengqing! Just stop talking about repaying your kindness!"
The embroiderer thought for a while and advised: "I don't know how to benevolent, have you ever heard of the allusion about Zilu accepting an ox and Zigong refusing gold?"
Wu Qiudao shook his head. He studied classical Chinese to prepare for the Chinese language exam, and he was really not very familiar with ancient allusions.
It turns out that Zilu and Zigong were both students of Confucius. Zilu's acceptance of the cow and Zigong's rejection of the gold are both stories in the Analects of Confucius.
Zigong was relatively wealthy and redeemed his slaves without charging a reward; Zilu was known for his bravery and after saving a man, he accepted the cow sent by the man as a thank you gift; but Confucius praised Zilu but criticized Zigong.
Confucius believed that society should provide both honor and material encouragement to good people and good deeds, and those who do good should also accept such rewards, so that more ordinary people who care about rewards will do good deeds.
Wu Qiudao understood that Xiu Niang hoped that he could accept other ways of repaying his gratitude. Ancient people were troublesome and had to beat around the bush and quote scriptures.
However, he is not the kind of true gentleman who is so immoral that he cannot accept "giving kindness in return". What he said before that "giving kindness in return is in bad taste" is just nonsense!
Anyway, as long as I have a firm belief, it will be fine. I am not a great person like Xu Xian, and I will never have an overnight relationship with this half-spider, half-human monster!
