Chapter 20 The Monster in the Cave
The opponent moved very fast on the silk screen, and his sudden appearance shocked Zhou Xu, and even his heart twitched hard.
At this moment, what appeared in his field of vision was a giant purple-red spider that was visually comparable to an off-road vehicle!
The eight huge spider legs are covered with chilling cilia.
Directly in front of the subject, on the protruding head, are eight black eyes piled together. Just looking at them is enough to make a cryptophobic patient feel uncomfortable.
Under the eyes, the ferocious mouthparts that constantly open and close in a specific pattern make people's scalp tingle just looking at it.
For Zhou Xu, a modern person, this is a monster.
The intense fear surged out like a volcano erupting, making him shiver uncontrollably.
“Grass! Run, run!!”
Without any time to think, Zhou Xu took the lead and ran away. Although Dashan and others didn’t know what was going on, they followed immediately. Dare to stay for a moment.
Zhou Xu didn't know how long he had been running. It wasn't until he felt top-heavy and his eyes turned black that he quickly stretched out his hand to support the black tree next to him and sat down against the trunk.
[Damn it, hypoglycemia...]
It took him a while to recover, and then he looked up at the mountains and others surrounding him.
I saw Dashan and the others looking at him nervously.
“I’m fine.”
Hearing Zhou Xu's voice, Dashan and the others were obviously relieved, and then they couldn't help but ask...
"Chief, what did you see inside?"
This of Dashan The question made that figure appear in Zhou Xu's mind again, and his emotions have not completely calmed down yet.
After taking a deep breath and adjusting himself, Zhou Xu told Dashan and the others what he saw in the huge ground crack cave.
After listening, the faces of Dashan and the others were just like him, unable to control the expression of fear.
Obviously, Zhou Xu is not the only modern person who is afraid of such giant monsters.
He never expected that such a big guy would live in the depths of this dark forest!
【Damn, are there such monsters in the primitive world? 】
This idea had just arisen, and Zhou Xu soon realized that he was wrong.
Don’t forget, there are still old gods and summoning rituals in this world. It is indeed not a normal world.
Following this line of thinking, it was his fault that he felt so fussy just by the appearance of a big spider.
"Which way did we run from?"
"This way."
Following the direction pointed by the mountain, Zhou Xu once again activated his 'Eye of Insight' 'Looked over.
If that big spider were to be chased out, it would be impossible for his 'Eye of Insight' to catch it with such a large size.
After confirming that the other party did not chase him out, Zhou Xu was greatly relieved.
If you think about it carefully, it was only him who discovered the other party unilaterally with his 'Eye of Insight', and the big spider may not have discovered his existence.
He was frightened by the monster spider that was completely beyond common sense, and he suddenly lost the ability to think.
Now that he has calmed down a little, his mind quickly opened up completely...
[If the living habits of this big spider are similar to the spiders I know, then its hunting method It should mainly sit back and wait, in other words, it is unlikely to take the initiative. 】
[Does that mean that as long as I don’t go into the depths of this dark forest, I can temporarily stay at peace with it? 】
Of course he doesn’t want to be a neighbor to such a terrifying monster. The first thought after calming down was to find some way to kill the big spider.
For example, stand outside the cracked cave, throw a torch inside, and burn the spider to death!
And this method was quickly crushed into pieces by Zhou Xu and thrown into the trash can.
Not to mention the lack of igniting materials in this cave, let alone throwing a torch in, even if he throws a fire in, it may not be able to burn.
Even if it can burn, the big spider is probably not stupid. No matter how stupid it is, animals always have the survival instinct, right?
When the fire is burning, it can’t run out?
It is not realistic to directly burn the opponent to death.
Under this premise, there are only two roads left in front of Zhou Xu.
One is to prepare quickly, move with all the people, and leave here.
The other one is also getting ready quickly, but he is just preparing to think of some way to kill this big spider!
In the short term, migration is a relatively safe approach. At least they can effectively avoid the threat from big spiders.
But at present, their tribe's food and fresh water problems have not been solved.
At the same time, except for this dark forest, their current knowledge of other areas is basically zero.
In other words, I simply don’t know where to go.
When migrating in this state, if you are not careful, you will run out of food and fresh water, and then die on the way.
On the other hand, if they choose the other option, they will have to bear the threat from the big spiders, but the advantage is that this area can temporarily provide them with relatively stable fresh water resources and food resources, allowing them to survive. .
Zhou Xu was not against escaping, after all, all the thirty-six strategies said running was the best strategy.
But he can't run away like this forever...
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu was immediately heartbroken.
“Damn it, kill it!”
Zhou Xu stood up as he spoke.
"Dashan, you all draw marks like this on the surrounding trees."
While speaking, he picked up a stone and drew a mark on the tree behind him. fork.
"Starting from today, arrange for someone to come over and keep an eye on this cave every day. As soon as the big spider makes any movement, he will come over and report to me immediately!"
"At the same time, send someone to notify Feiqiao and the others. Although They are all on the periphery, but it is best to pay attention. I want to go back to the tribe first."
After arranging things here, Zhou Xu hurried back to the tribe.
Facing a spider monster of that size, fighting head-on is really a lack of confidence and can only be outsmarted.
On the way, he actually already had a general idea in his mind.
Now it just takes a little time to make this idea more detailed and clear.
During this period, Zhou Xu did not let himself be idle. At this moment, he was inspecting the dried clay bowls.
He did intend to kill the big spider, but what if he couldn't?
People have to prepare a way out for themselves. It is impossible to just go to the dark side on this road.
And this pottery allows them to effectively store fresh water.
If they can't kill the big spider and they need to run away, the fresh water stored in pottery can allow them to go further, greatly increasing their probability of finding a new livable place!
The update is sent, and I would like to thank the book friends for their "breeze slowly" and "casual and simple" rewards!
