Chapter 57 Spider



Meteorite Mountain is just a general name for a mountain range. In fact, there are many peaks and mountains inside it, each with its own name.

Pengqiao Village is located on Taigong Mountain next to Jingli Road. Many people in Qingyang City know about it, and you can hire a guide for just a few dozen coins.

The mountain path is shrouded in fog.

"Sir, the humidity in the mountains is a bit high today. We may arrive at Pengqiao Village a little late."

The middle-aged man walking in front and leading Qin Yuesheng turned around and said.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Qin Yuesheng was dressed in a grey suit, with a scabbard specially designed for his evil-suppressing sword carried on his back. He looked heroic and dignified.

After walking for about half an hour, a tall wooden wall finally appeared in Qin Yuesheng's eyes.

I saw that the surface of the wooden wall was covered with various iron spikes and wooden thorns. It seemed that the villagers of Pengqiao Village were really dedicated to resisting the bandits.

"Sir, the villagers in this village are very vigilant. Many bandits have deceived them by claiming to be merchants from Qingyang City. So you must hand over your weapons to them first, otherwise they will not let you in."

Qin Yuesheng took the evil-suppressing knife and said, "Okay."

Following the guide's words, a basket was hung down from the wooden wall, and Qin Yuesheng placed the evil-suppressing knife into it. After the villagers hoisted the basket up, the wooden wall door slowly opened a crack.

"Sir, I've finished my work, so I won't go in with you."

"Well, go back and be careful on the road."

"Okay."

After watching this person leave, Qin Yuesheng walked in through the crack in the door.

The scenery in Pengqiao Village is quite good. Passing through the wooden wall, you will see a scene of Peach Blossom Spring with pleasant views.

The moment he appeared, an old man came up to him.

The old man had white hair and beard, and was leaning on a dry wooden stick in his hand. He looked quite kind.

"Young man, what brings you to Pengqiao Village?"

Qin Yuesheng cupped his hands and said, "I heard that you had a spider monster here, so the Qingyang City Governor sent me to help you deal with the situation."

"Oh!" The old man's eyes suddenly lit up. "Young man, you are the one sent by the governor. That's great! Come on, Er Gouzi, return the young man's knife to him."

The young man holding the evil-suppressing knife immediately handed it back to Qin Yuesheng, who took it and said, "Junior Qin Yuesheng, may I know your name, old man?"

"Everyone here has the surname Peng. Young Master Qin, just call me Village Chief Peng."

"Let's talk as we walk. I've already learned the details from the files. Village Chief Peng, is there anything else you'd like to add that you haven't reported to the authorities?"

"Young Master Qin, are you the only one here this time?"

"It's just me. What? Village Chief Peng doesn't believe in my ability."

"How dare I? Since you are someone specially sent by the governor, you must be extraordinary. I dare not underestimate you."

As Qin Yuesheng and Village Chief Peng walked further away, the villagers of Pengqiao Village guarding the wooden walls couldn't help but whisper, "This young man is so young, can he really kill that spider monster? Even Erniu's uncle was bitten to death by a spider monster the day before yesterday."

"Erniu's uncle is just a little stronger, and he has never practiced martial arts. Why are you comparing him to others? In my opinion, he should be compared with that kid Peng Fei."

"What a pity! If Peng Fei wasn't crazy, he would have killed the spider monster for the village long ago."

Under the guidance of Village Chief Peng, Qin Yuesheng took a tour around Pengqiao Village. It must be said that this is indeed a basin that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Except for the entrance and exit, the village is surrounded by steep and rugged mountains.

Unless one is an expert in Qing Kung Fu, no warrior can climb up.

However, such a dangerous place is of no hindrance to some monsters, and the spider monster, which is good at climbing vertical terrain, is one of them.

"Have you figured out which direction the spider crawled in from?" Standing at the end of the basin, Qin Yuesheng asked, looking at the cliff above.

This is a peach blossom forest. The peach blossoms on the branches are still in the bud stage, and the little pinks look very sparse.

"It only comes out at night. It is difficult for us to find it, let alone the problem you mentioned." Village chief Peng smiled bitterly.

"It's okay. I'll stay here tonight. If the spider appears again, I'll help you kill it."

"Thank you so much, Young Master Qin," Village Chief Peng said enthusiastically. "You must be tired after walking for so long. Come to my house and rest for a while."

Qin Yuesheng was about to nod in agreement when his eyes suddenly swept to the depths of the peach forest and he was immediately attracted by an old house there.

This old house has three rooms on the left, middle and right, which are connected together. There is a circle of yellow mud walls around it, and it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.

"Village Chief Peng, what's the situation with that house? It's so far away from most villagers' houses." Qin Yuesheng asked curiously.

"It's nothing serious. A fellow villager just moved away and no longer lives in Pengqiao Village, so his house naturally became empty."

"Oh." Qin Yuesheng nodded, not caring.

Then he left with Village Chief Peng.

In just a few days after the spider demon appeared, nearly fifteen people died in Pengqiao Village. If it weren't for the roots left by their ancestors here, many villagers would have moved away long ago.

night.

Qin Yuesheng sat in the village hall of Pengqiao Village, slowly picking up the dishes on the table.

In addition to his table, there were more than 20 tables set up nearby, and all the villagers in Pengqiao Village gathered in the village hall to eat together.
