Chapter 119 Spider 6
Blood-red clouds rolled in the night sky, and a huge mushroom cloud covered the entire sky.
It was like a strange nightmare. The high-rise buildings on both sides of the street collapsed one after another, dust flew everywhere, and the laughter and people coming and going in the past were all crushed under the soles of feet as hard as steel.
…
At the entrance to town, there lived a lovely little girl who spent her days nestled in the doorway with her mother, washing and washing clothes, eagerly anticipating the return of her husband from a long journey. When she saw Lin Yue passing by, she sweetly called him "brother" and shyly huddled behind her mother.
Grandma Yang, who runs the small shop, watched Lin Yue's mother grow up, and now she's watching Lin Yue grow up. When no one is in the shop, Grandma Yang will secretly pull Lin Yue's hand, take the candy from the jar and put it in his hand.
Tell him "It's free, just eat."
There were still some ignorant children in the town. When Zhao Chunhong cursed loudly, they would imitate her. When they saw Lin Yue passing by, they would laugh in the tone of an adult.
"The sickly one from the Lin family is here!"
"A burden. I still need adults to help me dress and eat. Shame on you."
"shameless."
Lin Yue ignored them, his smile a little bitter. He didn't know how to explain to them that he didn't need to be fed or clothed, that he could take care of himself, and keep himself clean and tidy. But no one listened, no one believed him. He walked with heavy steps, panting and coughing, to the home of the old Chinese medicine practitioner in town, and returned to the deserted hotel, carrying the herbs that kept him alive.
Next to it is the home where he lived for many years.
The warmth of family seemed imminent, and in the blink of an eye, the hostess had changed. His father's hair had turned gray with worry. Knowing he was an outsider, Lin Yue offered to live next door. The small, messy, and filthy room held the frail body of a young boy.
Here, at least I can get a moment of peace.
No quarrels, slander, or abuse.
He would sit on the windowsill with his knees hugged, daydreaming all day, without having to worry about his "laziness" ruining his deceased mother's reputation. Zhao Chunhong couldn't see him, so her resentment wasn't as strong.
These memories, whether happy or sad, were so vivid when they were engraved in his mind, so vivid that it seemed as if he could touch the years he had personally experienced in the past as long as he reached out his hand.
Until the sky was filled with blood.
A thick, bloody tide rolled in. Deep within Lin Yue's heart, the very thing that held this broken body together, keeping it alive in this world, shattered. What was that? He remembered the sweet smile of the little girl at the town entrance, her stuttering retorts when the naughty children scolded him. The warmth of Grandma Yang's old, wrinkled hand resting on his.
besides……
What else?
Lin Yue's tears streamed down his face. He looked up and saw dark red clouds rolling across the horizon, like thick blood. The ferocious claws clamped into his abdomen, and his nerves were paralyzed by the toxin. He felt all the strength drained from his body, even the strength to curl his fingers was gone.
The enormous spider was much bigger, more hideous and more terrifying than the spiders that attacked the town in previous times. This terrifying creature that seemed to come from the distant underground made humans, who claimed to be at the top of the food chain, tremble from the bottom of their hearts. The instinctive fear of the strong made their knees weak and they huddled together in fear.
pain.
It hurts so much.
The spider clamped him tightly in front of it, and its fangs pierced through his fragile belly. Lin Yue's body was bent in a strange arc, and the part below the waist was crushed, but the part above the waist was still a beautiful human body.
The rough hemp rope fell before my eyes.
Oh, this was the rope that bound his body. The spider had torn it into pieces and thrown it away. It lay scattered beneath him. As the rope untied, his arms were free, but he could only watch helplessly, enduring the pain of his flesh being torn apart, as his body rotted away.
This is not the most uncomfortable thing.
What's so scary about dying at the hands of a monster?
In front of him, separated by a thin door panel, inside the open door, were the townspeople kneeling on the ground.
Those who survived and were protected behind them.
They avoided Lin Yue's gaze and turned toward the cruel monster, discarding the teachings that symbolized dignity and integrity for men. "A man's knees are made of gold." They refused the gold and knelt before the monster, eager to appease its wrath with Lin Yue's flesh and blood.
Lin Yue saw the mayor. A kind and gentle man.
The uncle next door, after drinking, would pull over and brag to passers-by about how great and capable he was when he was young.
The aunts and uncles who sell vegetables. The kind people who secretly give Lin Yue extra vegetables and fruits.
There are so many more... The little girl was eaten by a spider, and Grandma Yang died after being rescued but didn't receive timely treatment...
Zhao Chunhong knelt in the crowd.
His eyes showed pity, fear, and relief.
The townspeople's words, a mixture of fear and pleading, were like mud spots after rain, rolling into bigger and bigger dirty mud balls and hitting him.
"...What is this? No, it was a slip of the tongue. You are a god, a great being. We shouldn't have angered you. Please forgive us."
"...He murdered them. He murdered them all. You possess such great power, how dare I disobey you? I stayed here the entire time when they appeared. I didn't take any action, didn't resist. Please spare my life and my family."
"It's Lin Yue."
"It was Lin Yue who did it. Lin Yue angered the gods. The gods punished him, and it has nothing to do with us."
The man rescued by Lin Yue knelt on the ground with his broken leg.
"It was Lin Yue. Lin Yue killed them all. It has nothing to do with me."
"Yeah, it has nothing to do with us."
"Eat him, calm your anger, and let us go."
Someone whispered, "But... it was Lin Yue who saved us..."
"Shut up."
"Shut up."
"What do you want to do? Can you resist it? Can you defeat it? Can you escape from here with us? If not, then shut up!"
"Look, the spider is retreating. Its anger is indeed directed at Lin Yue... It must have been Lin Yue who killed the spider that angered it, and it's punishing Lin Yue! We are saved!"
Only the head remained intact from Lin Yue's body.
Her beautiful eyes were filled with scarlet tears.
He heard their whispers: "Lin Yue is in poor health and is relying on herbs to stay alive. He was almost dead anyway. It's nothing. Don't blame yourselves."
"Yeah, he coughs every day and can barely walk. Besides, Lin Yue is a good kid. Didn't he risk his life to save many of us before? If he does it again, he will definitely be willing to do it."
"Dad Lin Yue, don't be sad. You and Chunhong have a child!"
The spider dragged Lin Yue's broken body towards the distant forest.
The blood formed a long trail on the ground.
Lin Yue looked at Lin Jindong who was huddled in the crowd. He had hunched shoulders, gray hair, and a face full of sadness and pain. That heart-wrenching expression brought a little comfort to Lin Yue's heart, but it was followed by a sigh and ridicule from deep within his heart.
He saw Lin Wang being held in Lin Jindong's arms, with his eyes covered and his ears covered, as the father's strong chest and back protected his son in his arms.
And Lin Yue.
Like discarded garbage.
The broken body gave off a foul smell of blood.
The spider's hideous and terrifying legs landed on the ground in an orderly manner.
Lin Yue faced terror head-on.
What is there to be afraid of?
He has nothing to fear.
But it hurts so much.
It hurts so much.
