He pulled for a while, then his face suddenly changed color and he shouted to Zhang Meng who was pulling, "Xiao Meng, stop pulling. This thing is getting tighter the more you pull it."
Zhang Meng was so frightened that she stopped moving immediately. Before they could pull out the sticky thread from their feet, another shove of sticky thread flew towards them.
"Come again." Zhang Meng opened his eyes wide and looked at the pile of sticky silk flying towards him again, and shouted.
Gu Mingtai's expression tensed up, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He quickly said to Zhang Meng, "Xiao Meng, use the fire talisman, quickly."
Zhang Meng came to his senses and remembered that Monk Jingchen had rescued him with a fire-starting talisman not long ago.
"Oh, I see." She quickly took out a stack of fire-starting talismans from her backpack and stuck them on his and her feet. She whispered a few spells in her mouth, and the fire-starting talismans soon caught fire.
As soon as the fire started, the sticky silk stuck to their feet seemed to feel pain and retreated from their feet with a whoosh.
Before the couple could breathe a sigh of relief, the human-faced spider above suddenly became aggressive and jumped down with its huge body.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gu Mingtai quickly grabbed Zhang Meng and stepped back, barely brushing against its body.
"Phew, that was close. If we hadn't taken a step back, we would have been crushed under its belly." Zhang Meng patted his chest, his face full of relief.
This time, the two were only one meter away from it. Zhang Meng quickly took out a lighter, lit it, and shone it forward, then he could see its true face clearly.
This is a huge black spider covered with hair. Its face is similar to that of a human, with a nose, eyes, and a pair of ears.
"Gu Mingtai, my legs are, a little bit shaking." Zhang Meng's legs started to tremble after coming into such close contact with a huge monster.
"Are you okay?" Gu Mingtai supported her nervously.
Zhang Meng secretly glanced at the giant spider that had been staring at them, then shook her head. "It's okay, but I just find this thing creepy."
She is most afraid of things with many legs.
"Don't be afraid. This is a smiling spider. I'll attack it from the front. You retreat behind it and wait and see. If there's a good opportunity, join me in taking it down."
Zhang Meng nodded, and while the big black spider wasn't paying attention, she secretly retreated behind it.
Seeing this, Gu Mingtai immediately picked up the saber in his hand and stabbed it with confidence.
He stabbed the spider with a knife, but the spider's skin was as hard as iron and did not hurt the black spider at all. Instead, it became angry again and turned around and pounced towards him.
He turned around and jumped forward, and its eight legs ran towards him quickly again.
Zhang Meng, who was hiding at the back, looked at the spider with her heart about to jump out. Suddenly, a bold idea came to her mind. The spider ran so fast because it had eight legs. If it had no legs, how could it run so fast?
"Good idea." Zhang Meng exclaimed happily. He quickly shouted to Gu Mingtai who was retreating, "Gu Mingtai, don't stab its body. Let's chop off its eight legs and turn it into a legless spider."
Gu Mingtai, who was dodging the attack of its eight legs, suddenly brightened up when he heard her words, and shouted to her happily, "Xiao Meng, you are really my lucky wife."
Zhang Meng chuckled, a little embarrassed, "No, I just thought of it in a hurry, you should try it quickly."
Gu Mingtai hummed, raised the saber in his hand again, bent down, rolled over, and landed under its feet. He raised the saber and slashed its forelimbs hard, and black blood sprayed all over his face.
The big front legs, as thick as a tree, broke in half immediately and were barely hanging on, swaying.
It wasn't completely cut off, but it made the giant black spider scream in pain. Its huge body shook violently a few times and fell to the ground with a thud.
Seeing this, Gu Mingtai quickly ran up again and completely cut off the half-broken large forelimb.
The black spider tried to stand up several times, but couldn't because it was missing a leg. It lay on the ground and stared at Gu Mingtai, who had cut off one of its legs, with a resentful smile on its face.
Gu Mingtai glanced at it and saw that it was out of danger for a while, so he immediately called Zhang Meng to rescue Monk Jingchen who was wrapped like a silkworm cocoon.
Zhang Meng took out another fire-starting talisman and burned it on the sticky silk threads. The silk threads retreated automatically as if they were afraid of pain.
Monk Jingchen, looking even more disheveled, had been stuck in there for too long, his lips turning purple. He trembled all over as he looked at the two heartless young men, "You two are so cruel! You actually let an old man like me stay in there for so long! I'm almost suffocating to death."
Gu Mingtai snorted softly, looked at him who was still speaking loudly and said, "You don't seem to be seriously injured, yet you still speak with such strength."
Monk Jingchen's face turned even purpler with anger, and he snorted, "You little bastard, if I had known you'd grow up to annoy me, your master, I shouldn't have picked you up in the first place."
Gu Mingtai smiled and said, "It's too late now. I've grown up now. It's too late for you to regret it."
Monk Jingchen was angry again. He covered his chest and immediately sought help from Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng smiled helplessly and said, "Master Jingchen, please stop talking so much. Let's get out of here as soon as possible. I always feel that this place is not safe."
That's right, this place made her feel unsafe. The sticky threads here almost covered the entire house. She really didn't dare to imagine whether this spider was good at spinning silk or if there was more than one here.
Monk Jingchen cleaned the sticky threads on his body. When he thought that he, a famous senior in the way of cultivating immortals, had lost face twice at the hands of this stinky spider, he felt so angry that his internal organs ached.
"Where is that stinking spider? I'm going to kill it and avenge my two humiliations."
Monk Jingchen angrily took out a string of Buddhist beads that was much longer than the one in Gu Mingtai's hand, and strode towards the black spider that was lying on the ground and trying hard to get up.
"You stinky spider! You actually made me lose face twice in front of these two little ones! This time, I'm going to kill you no matter what!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Monk Jingchen chanted "Amitabha" to it, bent down and took out a sharp knife from under his shoe that was smaller than the one in Gu Mingtai's hand, and stabbed it straight at the black spider.
