Chapter 391

~8 min read 1,405 words

The spider fell.

Everyone was able to breathe for a while.

Xiong Gang let go of the spider and wanted to thank Wu Xian, but was scared by Wu Xian.

"Ah, sorry."

Wu Xian hurriedly started rubbing his face, restoring his expression that looked like he wanted to eat people.

It's no wonder Xiong Gang was scared. Wu Xian's expression was specially practiced in front of the mirror. Only by making that ghost-like expression could he maximize his killing intent.

Wu Xian pulled out the dagger and stared at it for a long time.

"The dagger is an ordinary product, and it's a bit worn, already a bit dull."

"Born killing embryo potential. When using cold weapons in a state of stimulating killing intent, there will be an extra damage bonus. I have tried it with ordinary weapons at home. If the original power is one, the power after the bonus is at most one point five. Such power is not enough for me to easily pierce the skull."

"And that feeling... is it really a human skull?"

When Wu Xian was puzzled, the Mad Woman walked over, stretched out her hand, and looked straight at Wu Xian. Wu Xian suddenly realized and hurriedly returned the dagger to the Mad Woman.

Xiong Gang moved the spider away.

Xia Caoqing underneath crawled out with uncoordinated limbs. Her expression was terrified, not like a human, her body trembling, pitiful. At this time, she needed someone to comfort her the most.

But the husband who should have comforted her just tried to reach out toward Xia Caoqing, then slowly put his hand down. His expression became melancholy and gray, and he just sat aside in silence.

At this time, Huang Debiao's mood was extremely complicated.

His heart was full of fear, regret, and shame, and he even looked down on and even hated himself.

He was afraid of everything in this cave.

He regretted triggering the argument, causing everyone to fall into chaos, giving the spider an opportunity.

He was ashamed that he had wet his pants in fear.

He looked down on himself for not daring to save his wife.

He hated himself for saying that everything was his wife's fault.

After being temporarily safe.

Wu Xian listened to Xiong Gang briefly recount what had just happened, and suddenly looked at Huang Debiao with pity.

This actually couldn't be blamed on Huang Debiao.

The darkness of the cave carries a curse, which can affect and destroy people's sanity.

Huang Debiao is just a victim. All the mistakes are in this Fudi. You can't require ordinary people who are involved to all be tough guys mentally.

If there is no turning point, Huang Debiao will probably give up on himself, or have a mental breakdown like the Mad Woman, or even simply seek self-destruction.

But Wu Xian didn't care about him.

Wu Xian is not good at comforting others and doesn't have the ability to lead people out of a mental prison through words.

And he has many things to do, so he can't waste time being a psychologist.

The exploration just now, speaking of which, took a long time, but actually took less than an hour.

The biggest gain of this trip was not food, not dry wood, nor talismans, but the fact that survival resources exist in the dark cave.

As long as you can get resources, you can persist to the end. If it were bare and there was nothing, Wu Xian could only wait for good luck in the cave.

Wu Xian unloaded the supplies on the fat tiger.

The Mad Woman and Xiong Gang were surprised by the fat tiger's cooperation. Wu Xian took the opportunity to praise the fat tiger a few more times, which barely relieved everyone's tension toward the fat tiger.

Wu Xian brought back a lot of dry wood, enough to provide light for a day. He picked a few small pieces and threw them into the bonfire, and the firelight became much more vigorous than before.

This also increased everyone's confidence in exploring outside.

There are many things to do, but the most important thing now is to fill their stomachs first.

There are two options for food.

One is the corpse Wu Xian brought back, and the other is the big spider.

After some discussion, everyone decided to eat the spider first. Although that spider had a human head, it was at least far enough away from humans.

And the charred corpse Wu Xian brought back, although it had fur and a beast head, its size was too similar to a human, and eating such a thing was too psychologically stressful.

The Mad Woman wanted to taste the saltiness of the charred corpse, but after everyone's persuasion, she still didn't eat it raw in front of everyone. Regarding the cooking problem.

Xiong Gang said he couldn't cook, the Mad Woman wanted to eat raw, and Huang Debiao and Xia Caoqing were both in an emo state.

Therefore, this meal could only be made by Wu Xian.

Wu Xian walked to the spider and swallowed. Although he wasn't too afraid of insects, he still felt that all the cells in his body were resisting when he thought about having to dismember this kind of thing himself.

But this thing must be done, because he still has to find Suixiang on the spider.

Flipping and flipping.

Wu Xian smiled.

He found a small hole behind the spider's belly. This hole should be used for spitting silk, and a section of spider silk was still left on it.

Wu Xian immediately pulled the silk thread and pulled out dozens of meters of white spider silk at once.

These spider silks are only as thick as pencil leads, but they are very tough and can easily support the spider's weight. The best thing is that all the spider silks have no stickiness and can be used directly as ropes.

In the barren cave environment, anything is worth cherishing. These spider silks can definitely come in handy.

Pulled to the end.

Wu Xian found that something was tied to the spider silk.

That was a Suixiang! To prevent the Suixiang from being broken, Wu Xian used a dagger to cut open the spider's belly and successfully took out the Suixiang.

"Hey, a single-player Fudi is good for this."

All the spoils related to worship props belong to Wu Xian alone, even if the monster was killed by a teammate, so Wu Xian can get more chances to worship God.

Got the Suixiang.

Wu Xian was not yet happy when he suddenly found something strange.

He just cut open the spider's belly, and after the spider's belly was broken, something seemed to be wriggling inside.

"No, it can't be."

Wu Xian swallowed, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

"Don't!"

Pfft! The spider's belly suddenly exploded, and countless small spiders spewed out like fireworks, covering the surroundings in the blink of an eye, crawling around with ghost-like movements.

"Ah!"

In the dark cave, Wu Xian's desperate voice sounded.

A few minutes later.

Wu Xian sat on the ground with empty eyes.

He was also a bit emo.

The scene just now was simply indescribable. All five people present were scared into dancing, and even Wu Xian's spirit couldn't stand the stimulation.

Fortunately, those spiders were too small, had no poison, and only cared about running away. They ran away within a minute, otherwise Wu Xian would really have left psychological trauma.

After calming down for a while, Wu Xian looked at the big spider.

"Let's not eat its belly for now, just eat the eight legs. Who knows what else will pop out of the belly..."

After that, it was the boring cooking time. Wu Xian cut off the spider legs, inserted them next to the fire to roast, and boiled water in the broken pottery jar he picked up.

"Spiders and crabs are both arthropods. The taste shouldn't be too bad when roasted..."

While dealing with the spider.

Wu Xian found another surprise.

Huang Debiao and Xia Caoqing had already gathered together again, because the fright of the small spiders just now stimulated their hearts, which instead made them cheer up again.

Although they couldn't cheer up immediately, they could at least be considered to have some vitality.

Wu Xian smiled.

"This wave of fright is worth it."
