Wilderness Underground Palace Chapter 45 Red Ant Turmoil
Although the giant python had been dead for a long time, it did not become as stiff as ordinary dead corpses, and the three of them rolled and fell on it, not suffering any pain, but being bounced away by the soft flesh and bounced back to the junction between the chessboard and the ground.

My head hung in mid-air, and the place below my neck was still at the end of the ground, and I turned my head down, and suddenly saw hundreds of dense red already close to my eyes, so startled that I quickly turned over and rolled back to the ground.
The position of the two of them is not very good, one of Mazi's legs has been drooping over the chessboard, fortunately the legs are short, and they have not touched the chessboard, otherwise so many red ants climb on the legs, the consequences are really unimaginable!
We see that this is by no means a place to stay for a long time, and if we delay any longer, we will be swallowed up by this group of red ants, so we can only climb back to the high ground between the tomb and the burial chamber just now, and then make plans.
The high ground was not high, and we easily climbed up, and when we looked back at the colony of red ants, we had already climbed to all the places we could see.
The python has been dead for a long time, and of course I don't feel it when my whole body is covered with red ants, and if there are so many red ants all around me, I am afraid that if I am not bitten to death, I will be itched to death.
The huge red ant colony completely covered the corpse of the giant python in a blink of an eye, turning the originally black giant python into a bright red, and a red "thick rope" more than ten meters long and one meter thick was formed in front of us in an instant.
Although the red ants are small, they are huge, and countless red ants crawl on the corpse of the python, and gradually move the corpse of the python towards us.
Because of the hindrance of the python, the red ant colony temporarily stopped moving forward, and also gave us a chance to breathe and think. The huge python has to have 1,800 catties, plus there are two monitor lizards in its belly, and the overall weight is not a problem to exceed 1,000 catties.
Tens of thousands of red ants crawl on the python's body, making a continuous hissing sound, which is not very harsh, but it disturbs people's hearts, and it is really uncomfortable.
In an instant, the red ant colony has already left the body of the giant python, and the giant python, which was still more than a thousand catties just now, has now turned into a skeleton, if this skeleton is brought back to the city and handed over to the biological museum, then it must be regarded as the treasure of the town hall, not to mention the price, but now this life hangs by a thread, those so-called things outside the body, I don't want to think about it.
Looking at the white bones of the giant python not far below, I suddenly figured out why there were no remains in the coffin just now, not the tomb owner who hid his remains or left us with a suspicious coffin, but from the skin to the flesh, from the flesh to the bones, all of which were eaten clean by these inhumanizing red ants! As for whether there were burial goods in this coffin, I can't guess this, but I think even if there were burial goods, it should be similar to the fate of this tomb owner, and it would have been eaten up a long time ago.
Although the python is big, there are more red ants, and the python that turns into white bones in an instant obviously can't satisfy the appetite of these guys, of course, the next target is us on the high ground.
Some of the red ants that went ahead may have eaten enough, and lazily stagnated around the skeleton, and had no intention of moving forward, only the remaining red ants that were not full or had not touched the corpse of the python at all became more and more frantically heading towards the high ground.
The giant python turned from intact to white bones in only an instant, in a short period of time, I didn't think of anything, looking at the red getting closer and closer, my scalp was numb, behind it was the tomb crossing blocked by the boulder, there was no way back, sitting still was obviously more cruel, the red ants at the front had climbed to our feet, so anxious that the two of them had already messed up, and they stomped their feet, wanting to trample those daredevils who broke up to death.
The red ants are too small, there are still many lines and gaps in the rubber soles we wear, the two of them stomped their feet quickly, and failed to step on a few of them, and there are more and more red ants under their feet, and if they continue like this, the red ants below are afraid that they will climb up, and by that time, there will be three more white bones in the tomb, which is a matter of time.
Time does not allow me to think about it anymore, and when I look into the distance, I find that there are no red ants on the other side of the coffin, and maybe jumping down now and escaping for my life on the other side of the coffin is the only way to have a chance to live.
As before, I didn't want to say any more, so I jumped down to the red below, and the two of them saw me jump and knew what it meant, and jumped down after me, just as they had just done.
The red ants, as thin as millet and as many raindrops, were still swarming and flowing under my feet, and I did not dare to stop, for fear of leaving enough time and opportunity for them to climb on me, because they were so small, I did not feel the slightest feeling under my feet, and if I did not look down, it was not much different from running on flat ground.
After a few steps, I ran to the edge of the chessboard, and the most embarrassing thing appeared on my head again, I was in a hurry to run for my life, and I forgot which way it was, and the coffin in the distance also made us unload the mess, and I couldn't do the guidance at all, looking at the red ant colony that caught up behind, I couldn't care so much, and I just picked a road and jumped down.
When the two of them saw that I had chosen a path, they thought that I remembered which path it was, and followed my example, followed my footsteps, and jumped down with a bang.
As soon as this thud sound entered my ears, I felt a burst of heat behind me, and when I looked back, there was already a sea of fire a few meters away behind me, fortunately the two of them were faster, and they were not burned by the raging fire, and they also blocked the red ant colony out of the fire.
Seeing the huge tongue of fire rushing towards us, far faster and more powerful than the red ant colony, and then running on this road, we will soon be buried in the fire, and my mind quickly thought about it, and quickly called the two of them to run with me to the right side of the road to continue running.
At the moment when we ran to the other road, another feeling of fire came from our left arm, and a "fire dragon" roared past us, carrying a thick hot wind and heat wave, almost blowing us down.
The road just now was without us, the fire dragon slowly subsided, just thought it was safe, but I didn't expect that the road under our feet was still wrong, a crazy earthquake came from nowhere, and shook a few of us on the chessboard, the same as before, the shaking was too strong, and we were not allowed to stand up at all.
The red ant colony behind us was consumed a lot by the huge fire, but the rest still accounted for the majority of the ant colony, the fire subsided, and then swarmed towards us, the huge earthquake made it difficult for us to move, but it did not have the slightest effect on them, seeing the red ants that were about to pounce, I seemed to see the death also approaching little by little.
