Hey, it turned out to be not the terrifying scene he had imagined. Yun Xiao Yi felt a bit disappointed, though he didn’t quite understand why.
Speaking of which, during the late Eastern Han period, there were no surveillance cameras and the government’s control was lax. If someone really wanted to kill, they could simply find a remote place, dig a hole, and bury the body. Why bother hiding it and letting it rot inside?
Zhao An returned to the inner room and retrieved a key from a hidden spot under the bed. "Immortal Sir, please follow me." With that, he was ready to lead Yun Xiao Yi and Zhao Yun on their way.
At that moment, Zhao Yang interjected, "Can I come along too? I want to know what’s inside."
Zhao An glanced at Zhao Feng and Zhao Yu, who were standing nearby. "What about you two?"
Zhao Yu's eyes lit up. "I want to go, dear."
Zhao Feng hesitated for a moment but eventually shook his head. "I can’t, dear. I need to help with the irrigation tools. The sooner we finish, the more land we can save, and we’ll have a better harvest this autumn."
Seeing Zhao Feng's determination, Zhao An nodded in satisfaction. "You truly are my eldest son—steady and reliable like me. Alright, you stay home and help out."
"You two can come with me," he continued. "But remember not to speak carelessly. Whatever you see inside must remain confidential. If you can’t do that, then it’s better not to come at all."
Zhao Yu and Zhao Yang quickly assured him, "Dear, please rest assured; we won’t say anything."
Thus, under Zhao An's lead, the five of them headed west toward the village. Before long, they arrived at a slightly dilapidated courtyard at the western edge of Zhao Family Village. Although the yard appeared somewhat rundown, the lock on the door was intact.
As Zhao An pulled out the key to unlock it, he explained, "Even though this place has been abandoned for some time, I come here periodically to check if anyone has entered without permission."
"This is getting interesting," he added with a hint of intrigue.
How important are these armors and Bing Lan? Why does Zhao An place such great importance on this place? Compared to the spider webs and spiders that are everywhere in the corners, at this moment, Zhao Yi is more interested in what is hidden in the underground warehouse.
As he stepped into the small courtyard, he noticed that the surroundings had long been overgrown with weeds. Due to prolonged drought, the yard was not as overrun with weeds as expected; only sparse patches of grass had sprouted in certain corners. The sunlight was scorching, making even the most resilient weeds struggle to survive. Every tiny crevice at the base of the wall was occupied by various insects, and silvery spider webs filled every gap.
It seemed there was no need to go down to the cellar. He could obtain the required spider webs right here. Yun Xiao Yi said to everyone, "Please wait a moment; I’ll gather some spider webs and be right back." Zhao An and the others nodded in response.
The crafting of scissors did not require a Crafting Table; it could be completed within the basic crafting grid. It only took two Iron Ingots to make them. Since Yun Xiao Yi had a whole set of Iron Ingots with him, making a pair of scissors was more than sufficient. He placed two Iron Ingots into the crafting grid, and before long, a brand-new pair of scissors was in his hand.
He moved to a corner of the yard where a thumb-sized spider was quietly hiding. It neither moved nor gave any indication of whether it was alive or dead. Could such a small spider produce spider silk or a Spider Eye? Yun Xiao Yi had no idea. However, this presented an opportunity for testing. First, he needed to collect some spider webs.
Holding the scissors, Yun Xiao Yi deftly snipped away at the spider web in the corner. In an instant, the large spider web—about the size of a washbasin—vanished, replaced by a game item that appeared in his backpack. The fascinating part was that not only did he acquire spider webs,
Its appearance had also changed to resemble what was seen in the game. Yun Xiao Yi took the Spider Web from his backpack and placed it against the wall. Compared to the piece he had just cut, this one was indeed different; it was larger, covering an area of about one square meter, and the threads were thicker and tougher, completely unlike ordinary Spider Webs that were fragile.
When Yun Xiao Yi attached the Spider Web to the wall and pulled on it with force, it surprisingly supported his own weight, its strength comparable to Steel Wire. While people marveled at this, they knew that cutting it would undoubtedly be its weakness. A gentle snip, and it would return to the backpack. If he used a sword to attack, he would only obtain a single strand of silk, equivalent to losing eight strands' worth of value.
He carefully used scissors to store the Spider Web back in his backpack. Then he attempted to pinch out the Little Spider lurking in the corner. As he reached out his hand, a vivid image flashed in his mind of the spider being crushed, its juices splattering everywhere. Hmm, that scene was a bit hard to accept. So instead, he took out a Rock Tile and pressed it down on the Little Spider in the corner.
