Chapter 194 Response
Whoosh——
Before Chen Ziyan finished his action and just finished speaking, a bunch of milky white spider silk as thick as his wrist shot out from the dark underground passage like lightning, Come straight to 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, and used the force to move half of his body out of thin air, narrowly avoiding this rapid 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 guy in their hands and stepped forward.
“Don’t come here!”
But 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 caught by a spider thread, Nothing will happen for a while.
But others did not have the 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.
And 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. Wang Kaixuan said:
"Old Hu, Fatty, take your gun and hit me hard in the direction of the spider thread!"
Hu Bayi: "Okay!"< br>
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 fired at the cave in front of them. trigger.
Bang, bang, bang—
As the smoke filled the air, bullets slanted down along the spider threads, causing fire to splash in the dark underground passage.
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. He planned to wait for the black-faced man underground to relax, and then directly use this spider silk to kill the opponent. Pull them out from the ground.
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 flat just as he pleases.
But unfortunately, Chen Ziyan had a good idea, but the other party did not 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 piece of loose 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 did not know the situation, they were accustomed to following Chen Ziyan's command. They immediately released their fingers on the trigger and quickly ducked out of the cave entrance.
They have never been exposed to the things below, so they dare not stay here for a long time without permission.
After returning to the safe area, Wang Kaixuan looked 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.
With a little knowledge, from the size of this spider silk, we can 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 thinking about having to face such a big spider.
This has nothing to do with fear, it is purely a psychological discomfort.
Actually, this is quite normal. After all, these creatures are very eye-catching. When enlarged, they will only become more unsightly, rather than suddenly becoming more beautiful.
"That's right." Chen Ziyan gave an affirmative reply.
Although he did not see the specific appearance of the attacker, but here he encountered a creature that attacks people with spider silk. What else could it be besides a black crawler with a human face?
Even if there were other creatures here before, they are definitely gone now. They have 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 did not meet his requirements.
The particularity of the black-faced 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 be good in terms of 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 Wei was not far away. The militiamen here were whispering to each other at this time, and their faces didn't look very good.
You can know from the way they look at the spider silk intentionally or unintentionally that the reason why they are like this is this spider silk, or more accurately, it should be the creature that produces 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 really can’t guess, most people will have their own answer.
Even people like Wang Kaixuan, let alone these militiamen, will suffer psychological discomfort after having a rough guess in their minds.
You must know that since ancient times, spiders have not been a good thing in people's impression, so it is normal for them to behave like this.
“Let’s take a rest first.”
Chen Ziyan looked around and found that everyone’s expressions were similar, 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 fantasize based on the existing conditions.
As we all know, fantasy is easy to be artistically processed, and the results are very different from the actual situation.
Coupled with the large number of people here, 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 image that is most easily adopted by everyone The one that is accepted 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 reality 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 really scares people 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 could see, he could 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 captured.
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 the black-faced man.
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?
Then what’s the point of everything he just did?
The militiamen nearby did not know what Chen Ziyan was thinking at this time, otherwise they would definitely tell 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.
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 doesn't know that Chen Ziyan Looking at his appearance, I thought he intended to adopt his own opinion, so he quickly continued.
He just wants to feel like he has killed those ugly things. Then he will be out of sight and out of mind, and will 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 is excavation work or cleaning up black-faced turtles, they are all boring things in his opinion, and what is being dug is not an ancient tomb, so it is even more boring.
Hu Bayi also felt that this suggestion was very advisable and helped: "There is some truth in what Fatty said. There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days. Even if we don't arrest people with dirty faces, we should still arrest the people below. Clean it up so that it will be safer when you start working."
Compared to Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi thought more simply.
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 people underground."
< br>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 ones who eliminate the black-faced worms. The main force.”
This is one of the reasons why Chen Ziyan did the demonstration.
He didn’t know how many black-faced worms there were underground, but he knew it would definitely not be a small number.
Whether it is him, Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, or Ding Sitian and Shirley Yang, even the most powerful Wushuang Ghost in the team currently cannot deal with so many people by himself. Dark face.
Although they possess special skills and have many differences from ordinary people, their essence is still human.
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 eliminate the black-faced worm group entrenched here, he would have to have sufficient manpower.
This is why he told Ding Sitian the news and asked her to report it to the superiors.
It’s simple, Chen Ziyan doesn’t have that many manpower.
We cannot and dare not gather so many people.
Hearing what he said, Hu Bayi probably understood what Chen Ziyan meant, and asked tentatively: "Master Chen, do you want the militia brothers to try your hand?"
Chen Ziyan Nodding: "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 , it has never been a small job, but this small group of them 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 short break and wait for them to calm down. We will rearrange the arrangements later and send people to guard the side with guns while digging.”
This is what Chen Ziyan said I can think of the most feasible solution 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.
What a coincidence, 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 words.
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 frequently, it is just some necessary military training, mainly in the use of firearms and formations.
Things like reaction speed are probably not involved.
Militia, the word "people" in front of them shows that they are not professional soldiers after all.
Wang Kaixuan did not speak, but glanced at Chen Ziyan thiefly.
Be prepared to speak out at any time. If Chen Ziyan is dissatisfied, he will 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 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.
