Just as Xiao Feng was secretly doubting whether the spider at this moment, like the hornbill by the wooden bridge, possessed a certain level of intelligence.

A familiar sound echoed in his ear.

"Hiss..."

Xiao Feng's eyes widened. Was it going to shoot silk?

He was currently lying down. From the time the sound of the silk spinning was heard to Zhao Guo'an being hit, even if he got up now, there's a high chance he would be bound by the spider silk before he could stand.

These thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.

Xiao Feng realized there was no time to get up and run; he then cared little about his image and rolled to the side from his previous position.

"Snap!"

Despite Xiao Feng's quick reflexes, he was still caught by one arm and pinned to the ground.

"Pfft...hahahahaha!" Zhao Guo'an laughed unkindly, "Old Xiao, don't you think you look like you got one arm peed on lying there with spider silk on you?"

Xiao Feng immediately retorted sarcastically, "According to your logic, you got peed all over just now?"

However, this smaller spider didn't shoot silk in three directions simultaneously, like the giant one inside.

Moreover, after spinning silk, it appeared even weaker than the giant spider; both the frequency of its eight legs moving and the struggle's intensity felt notably reduced.

"I say, can the two of you talk sensibly?" Ninth Uncle, sweating profusely, gasped, "Wouldn't it be better to use your banter to figure out a way to deal with this spider?"

At this point, Xiao Feng finally cut through the silk binding his arm, stood up, and, without hesitation, stabbed at the spider's side.

"Thud!"

The dagger sunk entirely into the spider's abdomen.

The four beauties still pulling against the spider immediately felt a noticeable decrease in its strength; now, as long as they exerted a bit more force, they could pull it.

Of course, no one attempted to see if it would work because there was no need.

All four understood their goal was to restrict the spider's movements as much as possible, not to compete against its strength. As long as the spider didn't move erratically, the task was considered complete.

However, the next moment, something unexpected happened.

"Ah!"

The young girl exclaimed in surprise and fell straight backward.

Su Yuzhuo, behind her, couldn't hold back either and fell to the ground with the girl.

Lin Zhiyan and Lin Jiaxuan, the sisters, experienced the same misfortune.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The four women fell heavily to the ground.

The cause of this scene was naturally not because the whip broke; even if it did, there was no reason for them all to break together.

It's because the spider stopped fighting them and retreated in the opposite direction.

While retreating, it raised its foreleg and thrust at Ninth Uncle.

Xiao Feng wasn't surprised at all, though he had stabbed the spider twice already. Compared to the overreacting Ninth Uncle, he was far less impulsive.

Just now, Ninth Uncle's behavior was akin to a foul-mouthed shrew, throwing useless items left and right while firing off a barrage of curses.

From fathers to mothers, to ancestors of eighteen generations, he spared none, regardless of whether the spider could understand, he cursed relentlessly. The sharpness of his words even made Xiao Feng sigh with amazement!

"I*@#%..."

Another string of words needing censoring came out, and Ninth Uncle hurriedly dodged, but still got grazed.

"Rip!"

The spider's stiff bristles on its leg tore a large gash in the jacket he was wearing, leaving everyone stunned.

How scared of dying is this!

No wonder everyone felt this way, because through the torn gap, they could see that inside Ninth Uncle's jacket was a silver chain armor.

Chain armor is essentially a long garment made of countless small iron rings interlocked tightly, providing excellent protection against cold weapons.

However, chain armor is usually worn on the outside, and there are few like Ninth Uncle who wear it inside.

Of course, in this peaceful era, no one would wear such a thing.

Sun Shijie made a speechless face, "Brother Miao, now I understand why you've been saying your shoulders hurt all the way."

Ninth Uncle's old face flushed red, he said bravely, "What's the big deal, wearing it at least guarantees more safety. Take just now for instance, if I had been cut deeper without this chain armor, half my life would be gone."

"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right!" Xiao Feng gave a thumbs up, full of admiration, but anyone could hear that his words had no sincerity.

At this moment, the spider seemed to finally falter, the strength in its eight legs dissipated, and it fell to the ground, its abdomen tightly pressed against the floor.

"Bang!"

The sound of the spider landing echoed throughout the empty space, lingering for a long time without completely disappearing.

Everyone looked at the spider completely lying on the ground, observing that it still moved occasionally, as if unwilling to accept its downfall.

Xiao Feng walked over and pulled the dagger out of the spider's abdomen, a pale red liquid gushed from the spider's belly, like a cork being pulled from the bottom of a wine barrel, releasing the stored wine.

However, just at this moment, Xiao Feng suddenly sensed a swift wind coming from behind, an alarming signal continuously flashing in his mind.

His intuition told him that this strike was unavoidable.

Xiao Feng decisively trusted his instinct, immediately turning back and holding the dagger in front of him.

"Bang!"

The impact felt like being hit by a hammer in the chest; the severe pain made him wonder if his ribs were already broken. Without time to think further, his whole body flew backwards.

"Thud!"

After landing, a mouthful of bright red blood spurted from Xiao Feng's mouth.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that the others didn't manage to react.

Once they did, Xiao Feng was already on the ground, coughing up blood.

Then they looked at the giant spider, already standing where Xiao Feng had been moments before. No one knew exactly how it got there, but clearly, it had knocked Xiao Feng flying.

"Clack clack clack clack!"

The giant spider's eight legs stomped on the ground alternately, making a horrendously harsh sound, provoking an urge to cover one's ears.

Wait!

The sound is sharp... cover the ears...

Xiao Feng's gaze focused, he called to the young girl, "Shihan, play the drum!"

The little girl nodded earnestly, opened her backpack, plugged her ears with earplugs, and then started drumming with her small hands.

Looking at the situation now, everyone understood that the giant spider wouldn't be as easily handled as the smaller one.

After all, even Xiao Feng was knocked flying in one encounter, and if any of them rushed up to fight, the outcome might be even worse.

At this point, the giant spider's rampage was likely related to them injuring the smaller spider.

It was unclear if the two spiders were merely comrades or if they had blood relations.

"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!"

The moment the drum beat started, the small spider lying nearby began twitching, as if in great pain.

But Xiao Feng had a faintly bad feeling, as if... he made a mistake with his strategy?
