Chapter Seventy-Two: Turning the World Upside Down
The earthworm's huge body stiffened, and the ground suddenly shook and churned.
The earthworm never fully exposed the ground, but from time to time it showed a section on the ground and burrowed down again.
Ye Xi could only judge from the exposed part that this earthworm was extremely huge.
In Ye Xi's eyes widening wider and wider, the soil boiled like water, and as the clods of soil fell one after another, the big earthworms burrowed out of the ground.
The earthworm was bigger than he could have imagined.
The diameter of the body is as thick as a rhinoceros, and it is not far behind that of an adult Titan Python, although it only exposes the upper half of its body, it is more than ten meters long.
I don't know how many meters there are in the part buried in the ground.
Even if the big earthworm is not sensitive to pain, it knows the pain when it bites off a bite of flesh, and its upper half of the body is erect high, and the mouthparts of the head are open, aiming at the Jiaojiao.
Where a piece of flesh was bitten off, yellow blood kept dripping down.
Jiaojiao, which is already as thick as a bucket, looks extremely petite in comparison with this large earthworm.
The mouthparts of the big earthworm open and close.
Ye Xi could sense that Jiaojiao, who was being targeted by the big earthworm, was a little scared, but it tried its best to restrain it, turned its head and rushed into the depths of the jungle.
Jiaojiao swam extremely fast, and the black python's body was wet by the heavy rain, like a black lightning bolt in the jungle.
The large earthworm burrowed into the ground, turned into an earth dragon that bulged from the ground, and spread in the direction of Jiaojiao.
Ye Xi hurriedly followed.
The big earthworm chased after it in the dirt, and its huge body showed a section on the ground from time to time.
Although the big earthworm has a huge body, it is not as flexible as Jiaojiao, and Jiaojiao saw that the big earthworm couldn't catch up, so he deliberately slowed down.
Gradually, the large earthworm was lured to the vicinity of the spider's nest.
The soldiers of the hunting team hiding behind the tree were so shocked that their eyes were about to pop out when they saw Jiaojiao actually attract the big earthworm.
"Jiaojiao, as soon as you lead it to the vicinity of the nest, leave it without touching any spider silk. ”
Ye Xi gave an order to Jiaojiao in his heart.
Jiaojiao hissed a few times, indicating that it had heard.
Ye Xi asked everyone to hide behind the tree and wait for the opportunity.
Under everyone's nervous gaze, the big earthworm got closer and closer to the spider's nest.
Seeing that the Jiaojiao stopped, the big earthworm came out of the soil and exposed its mouthparts to attack it.
The body of the large earthworm was so large that almost as soon as it came out of the ground, it touched the densely distributed spider silk.
In an instant, two spider silks poked out of the two dark holes and rolled towards the big earthworm.
Seeing this, Jiaojiao hurriedly left here and swam back to Ye Xi's side.
Ye Xi touched Jiaojiao's head and praised it for doing a good job.
Two spider silks wrapped around the upper body of the large earthworm and dragged it to the ground.
The big earthworm was furious, swaying its body and trying to break free.
With such a shake, he touched a few more thin spider silks, and in an instant, several thick spider silks came from the hole and wrapped up the big earthworms.
The big earthworm was entangled, and it was really angry. It was so big and powerful that it couldn't be dragged by the silk.
But the big earthworms can't tear off the spider silk, because the toughness of the spider silk is so good.
The big earthworm bent down and burrowed into the ground.
Seeing the figure of the big earthworm disappear from the ground, everyone hiding behind the tree held their breath.
You know, the underground is the spider's nest.
......
The soil above the spider's nest boiled like an earthquake at a rate visible to the naked eye.
It can be seen how earthworms are turned upside down in the ground.
Suddenly, many black-skinned spiders the size of calves swarmed out of their burrows.
Ye Xi clenched his hands, can this plan succeed?
The giant spiders couldn't stay any longer when they saw that their nests were constantly being destroyed by the big earthworms.
There are a lot of black-skinned spiders burrowing into the ground.
Ye Xi didn't know the battle situation underground, they could only see that the ground was churning more and more, and once the tail of a big earthworm was thrown out of the ground, and they saw several black-skinned giant spiders hanging on the tail.
The giant spider's nest, which was originally as orderly as honeycomb coal, was now in a mess.
There were a lot of giant spiders mixed with dirt and turned over by large earthworms.
More and more giant spiders attack the large earthworm and want to kill the intruder. The big earthworm was attacked, and it churned more and more.
Eventually, something mummy-like wrapped in spider silk came out of the ground.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
The things wrapped in spider silk ranged from large and small to as big as a calf and as small as a rabbit.
Three humanoid objects wrapped in spider silk were also turned out, and Hulu pointed at them and exclaimed, "Look, are they antelopes!"
Pu Tai looked at it and waved his hand violently: "Luo and Litu rush with me! The others stay where they are!"
With that, he took the lead and rushed towards the spider's lair like the wind, followed by the other two figures.
The three of them carried the three warriors who were wrapped in cobweb, and ran back without caring about anything.
The ground over there was turned soft by the earthworms, and it was raining heavily, and it was very difficult for them to run, and half of their legs were submerged in the dirt.
The giant spiders were too busy attacking the big earthworms to take care of the three poachers and did not catch up.
Putai and the others put three warriors bound by spider silk on the ground.
"It worked!"
Everyone was ecstatic and cheered.
Seeing that the antelope was so wrapped in spider silk that they couldn't even see their faces, the warriors hurriedly drew their weapons and cut the spider silk.
But the spider silk is tenacious beyond their imagination, and it can't be cut.
"I'm coming!" Ye Xi and Pu Tai said in unison.
The two looked at each other, one pulled out a dagger, and the other pulled out a short knife and cut the spider silk.
Their weapons were made from the beaks of pure-blooded beasts, and they cut through the spider silk with great effort.
The spider silk was cut, revealing the familiar teammates inside, but the three fighters closed their eyes and remained motionless.
Ye Xi reached out and felt the pulse of one of them, and the pulse under the palm of his hand beat suddenly: "It's still alive." ”
Putai: "I guess I was anesthetized by the venom of the giant spider." ”
All the fighters breathed a sigh of relief.
"These three guys are so lucky, they almost picked up a life!" a soldier wiped the rain from his face and sat on the ground.
"Ye Xi, how do you have a long brain, you can actually think of this method. ”
"It came to my mind. Ye Xi put the dagger back into his waist, "It's also their luck that we have that big earthworm at the entrance of the cave." ”
Looking at the spider silk that was thrown on the ground, Ye Xi thought about it and put them away. This spider silk is extremely flexible, and it is a rare good thing, and it may be used in the future.
The big earthworm was no longer able to withstand the attacks of more and more giant spiders.
The ground on the spider's nest stopped boiling and calmed back.
When he saw that the land not far from the spider's nest arched one by one, arching into the distance, Ye Xi knew that the big earthworm was not dead.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the big earthworm is powerful, it has a gentle temperament and usually does not attack humans, and it is really unkind to design it to be attacked by a swarm of giant spiders in order to save people.
Now that he knew it was okay, he was relieved.
Fearing that the giant spider would come back to their senses and attack them, the hunting party picked up the three unconscious warriors and left the place.
