As the massive number of man-eating beetles continued to arrive, more and more rats appeared in the holes, which were not only huge, but also completely unafraid of people, and even wanted to attack them.

After Qin Hai hacked several rats to death in a row, he looked around, pointed to a big stone in front of him on the left and said, "Go up there, quick!"

The large rock is about half a man's height, oval-shaped, and extremely smooth on all sides. After Qin Hai climbed up with the girls, he also jumped up.

In the blink of an eye, all the rats rushed towards the big rock, as if they were crazy and wanted to attack them.

The firewood knife in Qin Hai's hand kept swinging, kicking and kicking his feet, driving down the rats that tried to climb the big rocks.

At this time, the man-eating beetle crawling from the cave also entered this open land, and Qin Hai immediately picked up a huge mouse with a firewood knife and threw it into the sea of insects.

The rat panicked and tried to flee quickly, but before it could get up, it was tightly wrapped in countless beetles, and after only a few breaths, it could no longer move.

Seeing this scene, Du Meiqi screamed again and again, and Miao Qing was so frightened that her face turned extremely pale, her legs kept shaking, and she could barely stand.

"Black beetles!Oh my God, why are there so many black beetles here!" Shen Meng stared at those man-eating beetles for a while, and suddenly exclaimed.

Qin Hai hurriedly asked, "Sister Shen, do you know this kind of worm?"

Shen Meng explained: "They are called black beetles, not only are their carapaces extremely hard, but they can also secrete a special liquid that is extremely corrosive, so as long as they want to eat, they can eat almost anything. This kind of worm is very rare now, I didn't expect there to be so many here!"

Qin Hai threw a few rats into the sea of insects and asked, "Sister Shen, do you have a way to deal with them? If there is no way, we may not be able to get out today!"

"I did bring some insect powder, but I don't know if it has an effect on black beetles!"

After seeing the black beetle, Shen Meng also knew that the situation was urgent, so he immediately took out a porcelain bottle from his small bag, opened it and looked at it, and immediately said in frustration: "The insect powder is not enough!"

Qin Haidao: "It's enough to sprinkle a circle around this big stone, if this doesn't work, then God will let us die here!"

Shen Meng sighed, if she had known that this would happen, she would have brought more insect powder. But it's useless to regret it now, you can only follow the method Qin Hai said.

Just as Qin Hai and the others carefully scattered the insect powder evenly around the big stone, the army of black beetles and the group of big rats in the cave finally started a head-to-head confrontation.

Although the black beetle is smaller than the rats, they are numerous, but all the mice surrounded by them, almost all of them are spared, and they are completely wrapped in the sea of insects in a few breaths, and then they are devoured completely, and there is not even a bit of bone residue left.

The group of big rats no longer besieged Qin Hai who was hiding on top of the big rocks, and began to deal with those black beetles one after another.

However, in the face of black beetles, who are not much smaller than them, these guys are powerless.

Soon, the army of black beetles gradually occupied most of the area of this open field, and the remaining rats may have realized the strong danger and began to flee in panic, many of which even jumped desperately towards the big rock where Qin Hai was located.

After a short time, the black beetle gradually spread to the side of the large rock, and almost the entire open area was occupied by the black beetle. As for the gigantic rats, except for a few that escaped, most of them were reduced to the food of the black beetles, and were devoured cleanly, leaving not even their fur behind.

At this time, Qin Hai and the others had already poured the last bit of insect powder left on the big stone, and the four of them were crowded in the middle of the big stone, looking nervously at the dense sea of insects under the stone.

Qin Hai and Shen Meng were still able to maintain their composure, Du Meiqi and Miao Qingke were frightened, the two of them hugged Shen Meng tightly, and the other only grabbed Qin Hai's sleeve, their bodies trembled incessantly, and they were already on the verge of collapse.

Especially Du Meiqi, if Shen Meng hadn't covered Du Meiqi's mouth hard, maybe she would have screamed in fright.

As for Qin Hai and Shen Meng, although they could barely maintain their composure, it was impossible to say that they were not nervous or afraid.

This is the time when their lives are hanging by a thread, and if the insect powder they just sprinkled doesn't work, then all four of them will be buried in the sea of worms.

Although Qin Hai had experienced countless moments of life and death, this was the first time he had faced countless man-eating insects. Comparatively speaking, he would rather die under a bullet or a butcher's knife, at least he can die crisply and neatly, once he is really crawled on his body by these black beetles, the consequences are terrifying just to think about.

As more and more black beetles poured into this open field, the entire sea of insects seemed to rise at high tide, and the water level continued to rise. This is especially true of the insects surrounding the large rocks, and as the latecomers continue to join, countless black beetles gradually surround the large stones.

Looking at this situation, Qin Hai and Shen Meng glanced at each other, and both of them saw despair in each other's gazes.

Just as a sudden roaring torrent is definitely not something that can be resisted by simply building a few sandbags, such a large number of black beetles can also not be resisted by sprinkling a little insect powder. They had been too optimistic and too optimistic.

In other words, if nothing else, several of them will die here today!

Du Meiqi suddenly cried, Miao Qing also fell completely paralyzed into Qin Hai's arms, although Shen Meng had always maintained her composure, but at this last moment, her face became extremely pale.

Qin Hai hasn't given up yet.

It wasn't until the last minute, and he didn't want to just give up. For so many years, he has almost always wandered on the edge of life and death, but he has always been safe and sound, precisely because he does not believe in the endless road, no matter what kind of desperate situation he faces, he always believes that as long as he persists, he will definitely be able to think of a way.

Qin Hai's gaze quickly scanned the top of the cave, the top of the cave was very flat, there was no place to hide, and finally his gaze fell on the thick stalactites, and a bold idea suddenly popped into his mind.

The stalactite pillar closest to the big stone is very thick, maybe Qin Hai may not be able to wrap it with his arms open, and it is very close to the big stone, he can reach it with his hand, but this stalactite pillar is inverted cone-shaped, and the surface is very smooth, and it is also impossible to borrow force. Qin Hai tried to cut it twice with a firewood knife, and found that the stalactites here did not know how many years had passed, and the texture was very hard.
