Before Chen Ziyan finished his action and just finished speaking, a bunch of wrist-thick milky-white spider silk shot out of the dark underground passage like lightning and headed straight for him.
This bunch of spider silk came suddenly. Fortunately, Chen Ziyan had been paying attention to the movement below, so he could notice it at the first time.
At the moment when the spider silk was about to reach him, he stepped hard on the ground with his right foot, using the force of his whole body to move half of his body out of thin air, narrowly avoiding this swift attack.
While dodging, Chen Ziyan did not forget to swing out the shovel in his hand. The shovel quickly spun in his hand and caught the spider silk that shot out like a sharp arrow.
It was only then that the others realized what had happened, and without thinking too much, they quickly picked up the thing in their hands and stepped forward.
"do not come!"
However, before they could get closer, Chen Ziyan shouted to stop them.
It's okay to say that Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan are both brave and good at fighting. Coupled with the training these days, their physical fitness has improved a lot. Even if they are accidentally stuck by a spider thread, they will not be able to do it for a while.
Something happened.
But others did not have this strength. Just by the pulling force from the shovel in his hand, Chen Ziyan knew that the black-faced man lurking in the darkness was definitely capable of dragging a strong man in.
Moreover, there is still no room for resistance.
After seeing the others stop in the corner of his eye, Chen Ziyan slowly shook the shovel in his hand, sending the 'stalemate' signal to the other end of the spider's thread, and at the same time said to Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan who were closest to him:
"Lao Hu, Fatty, take your gun and hit me hard in the direction of the spider thread!"
Hu Bayi: "Okay!"
Wang Kaixuan: "Yes!"
The two men immediately responded in unison, then took the gun from the militiamen behind them, came to Chen Ziyan's side, lowered the muzzle of the gun, and pulled the trigger at the cave in front of them.
Bang bang bang——
As the smoke filled the air, bullets slanted down along the spider threads, causing the dark underground passage to burst into flames.
While the two of them were shooting wildly, Chen Ziyan was not idle either. Instead, he carefully sensed the force coming back from the shovel, planning to use the spider silk to pull him out of the ground when he waited for him to relax.
No matter how arrogant this dark-faced man is underground, when he gets to the ground, he won't be able to make him round or flatten just as he pleases.
But it's a pity that Chen Ziyan had a good idea, but the other party didn't want to cooperate.
Just when he felt a change in the strength on the other side and wanted to pull it out in one fell swoop, he felt a sudden lightness on his hand.
Looking sideways, he saw a loose piece of spider silk hanging on the shovel.
Obviously, after sensing the danger, the black-faced turtle decisively chose to cut off its tail to survive, cutting off the connection between the spider silk and its body.
"withdraw!"
Seeing this, Chen Ziyan knew that it would be difficult to gain anything, so he decisively asked the two of them to leave.
Although Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were not aware of the situation, they were accustomed to following Chen Ziyan's instructions. They immediately released their fingers on the trigger and quickly left the cave entrance.
They have never been exposed to the things below, so they don't dare to stay here for a long time without permission.
After returning to the safe area, Wang Kaixuan glanced back and asked Chen Ziyan: "Mr. Chen, is that thing just now the human-faced spider you mentioned?"
As he spoke, he looked at the spider silk hanging on the shovel, feeling a little chilly in his heart.
At a glance, from the size of this spider silk, we can completely deduce the specific body shape of the so-called black turtle with a human face.
Although Wang Kaixuan was extremely brave, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about having to face such a big spider.
This has nothing to do with fear, it is purely a psychological discomfort.
In fact, this is quite normal. After all, this kind of creature is very eye-catching in appearance. When enlarged, it will only become more unsightly, rather than suddenly becoming more beautiful.
"That's right." Chen Ziyan gave an affirmative reply.
Although he could not see the specific appearance of the attacker, if he encountered a creature that attacked people with spider silk here, what else could it be besides a black turtle with a human face?
Even if there were other creatures here before, they must be gone now, having been eaten up by the black-faced cockroaches long ago.
Anyway, Chen Ziyan doesn’t think these spiders understand sustainable development.
While thinking about this, Chen Ziyan shook the shovel in his hand and threw the piece of spider silk to the ground.
Speaking of which, this thing can be regarded as a good material, but Chen Ziyan has no interest in it.
To be precise, it was because the spider silk could not meet his requirements, and it was of a type that was not enough compared to the previous ones, but more than enough compared to the lower ones.
The particularity of the human-faced black spider is mainly reflected in its body shape. The essence of the spider silk is not much different from that of ordinary spider silk.
It's just because of its size that it appears to have good strength and toughness.
But if you compare them carefully, you will find that in terms of functionality alone, there are many species of spiders in the world that produce silk that is stronger than this.
Just when Chen Ziyan was looking at the spider silk and thinking, Hu Bayi suddenly reminded him in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, look."
Chen Ziyan followed his line of sight and found that the militiamen gathered not far away were whispering to each other, and their faces didn't look very good.
From the way they looked at the spider silk intentionally or unintentionally, we could know that the reason for their behavior was this spider silk, or more accurately, it should be the creature that produced the spider silk.
No one is a fool. Everyone has common sense. When they see such thick spider silk, even if they are not sure what the creature below looks like, they can roughly guess the specific type and size.
Especially when there are hundreds of people present, even if someone can't guess it, most people will have their own answer.
Even people like Wang Kaixuan, let alone these militiamen, will suffer psychological discomfort after making general guesses in their minds.
You must know that since ancient times, spiders have not been a good thing in people's minds, so it is normal for them to behave like this.
"Everyone, let's take a rest first."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chen Ziyan looked around and found that everyone had similar expressions, so he made this arrangement after thinking about it.
After all, it happened suddenly and it takes some time to accept and adapt.
To be honest, this sudden encounter was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.
Otherwise, there would be no need for Chen Ziyan to teach by words and deeds, because this is not the case.
It's just that this attack was a little early in time, which caught him off guard. If he had waited until he had completely laid the groundwork, he probably wouldn't have had such a reaction.
At the very least, there won't be such a violent reaction.
Wang Kaixuan also discovered the problem. After thinking about it for a while, he put forward his own idea:
"Mr. Chen, why don't we go down later and catch one for everyone to see?"
Seeing is believing!
Wang Kaixuan has always been good at grasping the key points and seeing the essence of things, and this is no exception.
The essence of this matter is very simple, or the source of the militiamen's fear is actually the unknown.
Because they don't know what a black-faced turtle looks like, they can only make fantasies based on the existing conditions.
As we all know, fantasy is easy to be processed by art, and the result is very different from the actual situation.
In addition, there are so many people here and almost everyone has their own ideas, which makes it even more chaotic.
Under such circumstances, the image they imagine will subconsciously incorporate many factors, which may come from movies and television, or may come from other sources, but there is no doubt that the one that is most easily accepted by everyone.
It is also the most frightening image.
In this case, when everyone recognizes the same image, it is easy to empathize and create a negative atmosphere.
The simplest and most effective way to get rid of this situation is to catch a black-faced turtle.
When the actual object of fantasy is placed in front of you, all illusions based on it will be shattered at the first opportunity.
And if the fantasy is too exaggerated and the gap between it and the real thing is too large, it will have another effect, which is to reduce the person's fear of such things.
To put it simply, this contrast can be described in two words... That's it?!
This is just like in those horror movies, what is truly scary is not necessarily the fear itself, but more the scary atmosphere created by sound effects, environment, atmosphere and other elements.
"Catch one?" Chen Ziyan touched his chin, feeling a little moved.
What Wang Kaixuan can see, he can naturally see too.
And I have to say that this proposal is very constructive, and it belongs to the type that can not only produce quick sound effects, but also achieve great results.
The main reason is that the strength of the three of them is guaranteed. As long as they can encounter a black-faced man, they will definitely be able to catch him.
Even if it is really impossible to catch anyone alive, it will not be difficult to bring back a corpse.
It can be said that the only threshold for the implementation of this matter is whether you can successfully meet a black-faced person.
But after thinking about it for a while, Chen Ziyan gave up this tempting idea.
If he chooses to do this, wouldn't it be a negative example?
So what's the point of everything he just did?
The militiamen nearby didn't know what Chen Ziyan was thinking at this time, otherwise they would have told him righteously that this was just his idea.
As for this difficult example, even if Chen Ziyan demonstrated it a hundred times, they would never try it, okay?
Really... you will die if you try it!
"Yes, it just so happens that we clean up the passage below so that we can start work with peace of mind. Otherwise, what will happen if that thing comes out and attacks people again?"
Wang Kaixuan didn't know what Chen Ziyan was thinking. Seeing his appearance, he thought he intended to adopt his opinion, so he quickly continued.
He just wanted to feel like he had killed those ugly things, so that he would be out of sight and out of mind, and be in a better mood to explore the ancient tomb.
Others may have focused on the things in front of them and temporarily ignored the ancient tomb, but he, Fatty Wang, had not forgotten it.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't leave, Wang Kaixuan would have taken Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi with him to explore the underground tombs first.
Whether it's excavation work or cleaning up black-faced turtles, they are all boring things in his opinion, and what's more, what's being dug is not an ancient tomb, so it's even more boring.
Hu Bayi also felt that this suggestion was very advisable and helped: "What the fat man said makes sense. There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Even if we don't arrest people with black faces, we should clean up down there. This is how it unfolds
It will be safer when working.”
Compared to Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi's thoughts were simpler.
He didn't think about so many things, but he was thinking about how to help Ding Sitian complete the task.
Chen Ziyan glanced at the two of them and explained: "We can indeed clean up directly, but we can't clean up all the underground passages first, and it is impossible to eliminate all the black-faced worms underground."
Speaking of this, Chen Ziyan glanced at the militiamen not far away and said: "So many people have been mobilized this time not to help us dig holes. To be honest, they are the main force in eliminating the black-faced worms.
.”
This is one of the reasons why Chen Ziyan gave a demonstration.
He didn't know how many black-faced turtles there were underground, but he knew it would definitely not be a small number.
No matter it is him, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, Ding Sitian or Shirley Yang, even the most powerful Wushuang ghosts in the team are unable to deal with so many dark-faced bastards by themselves.
Although they possess special skills and have many differences from ordinary people, they are still human beings at their core.
Even Chen Ziyan, who has awakened his bloodline, is currently only stronger than ordinary people, rather than reaching superhuman status.
So he knew from the beginning that if he wanted to completely wipe out the black-faced worms entrenched here, he would have to have sufficient manpower.
This is also the reason why he told Ding Sitian the news and asked her to report it to the superiors.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It is very simple, Chen Ziyan does not have that many manpower.
We cannot and dare not gather so many people.
Hearing his words, Hu Bayi probably understood what Chen Ziyan meant, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Chen, do you want the militia brothers to try your hand?"
Chen Ziyan nodded: "Yes, although we plan to start directly from the incubation room, there will definitely be some black-faced people living outside. These stragglers will depend on our militia brothers."
This kind of search is never a small job, and their small group cannot do it.
"Then what should we do now?" Wang Kaixuan asked with a frown.
Even if he didn't understand it before, he already understood it after listening to the conversation between the two.
Although he still insisted on his own ideas, he did not reject Chen Ziyan's ideas.
"Let's take a break for a while and wait for them to calm down. We will rearrange the arrangements later and send people to guard them with guns while we dig."
This is the most feasible solution that Chen Ziyan can think of in a short period of time.
Of course, guarding with a gun may not be useful, but it is not useless.
And he felt that even if someone encountered a black-faced man, they would not encounter the same thing as him every time.
It was such a coincidence that I happened to encounter a black-faced turtle and was within its attack range.
"Will this... be effective?" Hu Bayi thought for a while and asked hesitantly.
He actually wanted to say that this should have no effect, but considering Chen Ziyan's face problem, he temporarily changed the wording.
Based on the speed of the attack just now, Hu Bayi felt that even he and Fatty might not be able to respond in time, let alone such militia brothers.
Although they also train regularly, it is just some necessary military training, mainly in the use of firearms and formations.
As for things like reaction speed, it probably won't be involved.
Militia, as the word "民" in front of them shows, they are not professional soldiers after all.
Wang Kaixuan did not speak, but glanced at Chen Ziyan with a sly look.
He was ready to speak out at any time, and if Chen Ziyan was dissatisfied because of this, he would help Hu Bayi get rid of the matter.
Chen Ziyan was silent for a moment after hearing this, and said: "I also know that this may not be useful, but it can give them psychological comfort."
He expressed his thoughts, or the main purpose of his method.
Psychological comfort.
Yes, this does very little good.
But if you can give the militiamen psychological comfort, make them less fearful, and be able to face it more calmly, it is already very effective, okay?
As for other aspects, since there are no expectations, it doesn’t matter.
