Chapter 587: Colorful Rooster
"Half an hour...? But the timing..." Master Yang's lips trembled, filled with worry for his family.
I glanced at the time on my phone, it had just passed seven in the evening, "Even if we call a car now, it would take time, just stay calm for now."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, your skills are superior... I'll listen to you," Master Yang spoke weakly, barely alive, leaning against the base of the wall.
The Spider Gu inside the body had drained all his Vitality and Spirit.
He could still seem strong on the outside, but now that the Gu Poison was removed.
The awakening of his numbed senses made him revert to his original state, making his body extremely frail.
I sent out a message.
Then I went upstairs and wore the Invisibility Clothes under my coat.
I entrusted Xiao Shenshen to the protection of the snakes, "Shenshen is easily coveted, everyone protect it well."
"Young Madam, take me with you, Shenshen alone... is scared," Shenshen sat on the bed, clutching the edge of my clothes dependently.
I pinched Xiao Shenshen's tender little cheek, "The place I'm going to is a bit dangerous, it's inconvenient to take you, and besides, I have a job for you."
Shenshen: "A job?"
"I'll be back soon. If your young master comes back first, pass him a message for me."
I gave Shenshen a slight smile, "I'm going to Master Yang's hometown, Happy New Year. Remember?"
"Remembered." Shenshen puffed up its cheeks, serious-faced.
In the upstairs room, I slung the Miao Embroidery bag I had brought back from Western Hunan over my body, packing what I thought I needed into the bag.
Everything was ready, and when I came downstairs,
Master Yang had fainted in the corner.
Pressing on my heavy stomach, I crouched down, "Master Yang, wake up."
"Don't... don't... come near, so many spiders!!" Master Yang also dreamed of many spiders in his sleep, woke up frightened by my call, his forehead sweating coldly.
Although his Spider Gu was resolved, the large Spider Mark on his face was still exceptionally clear.
Under the harsh white incandescent light, it looked particularly sinister.
Master Yang took a long while to recover from the shock, "Is it time yet? My... arm..."
"The wound on your arm has healed, and the hypovolemic shock has stopped too," I added, although the severed arm couldn't possibly grow back.
I pulled Master Yang up and headed towards the front door.
Just as I was about to open the door, he grabbed me, "Are you really going to open the door? There are so many spiders outside."
"Don't worry, I have a way to handle it." I gave Master Yang a reassuring look, and the grasp on my wrist slowly relaxed.
As soon as the door opened, the howling cold wind rushed in instantly.
The door was full of Blood Handprints that Master Yang had left earlier, and in the long crossing streets not far away, it was pitch black like bottomless abysses.
Soon, there were many rustling sounds, seeking the scent of living beings.
Surging out from the darkness.
The dark tide was overwhelming and terrifying.
Master Yang's legs trembled like wide noodles, shuddering severely.
I also have a fear of clusters, my knuckles tightened slightly.
In this densely packed state, it was impossible to see the shape of the spiders, only a dark, surging tide, the Arthropod's eight legs moved at an incredibly fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, they were up close. Sweat broke out on my forehead, my heart started to pound.
The moment of crisis had arrived, why hadn't they come yet?
There shouldn't be any... mistakes, right...
"Ooooh~" A clear rooster's crow came, a brightly-feathered rooster with a red thread tied around its leg quickly ran towards the direction of the mealhouse.
