Chapter Forty-Nine: The Hive Fights Four
The female worm's eyes were cut off by me, and at this time it was like crazy, constantly rolling in the hole, crashing around, and the stone wall that was closer to it had been knocked open by it several holes, and the stalagmites on the top of the cave could withstand such a toss, and they fell from the top of the cave.

For a moment, the cave seemed to be experiencing an earthquake, and the rocks fell and trembled.
Fortunately, the mother worm is far away from us, and she will not be able to escape from us for a while, but no one can guarantee that it will trample on us as if it were crazy. The worst thing is the stalagmites that keep falling from the roof of the cave, and such a large stone will definitely smash people into meat sauce.
Two soldiers helped me up, and I turned my head to see that the field was already in chaos, but the battle with the worms had not stopped. Except for the one that intercepted me with the mother worm earlier, the seven worms here have been burned to death by the Yellow Catcher, and one of the remaining three worms is now on fire and rolling on the ground, and it seems that it will not be long before it will be burned to death. The remaining two worms probably knew that they were afraid, and they were sticking to the wall and were constantly crawling on the stone wall.
The two worms were extremely fast, dodging the torches they had thrown at them and crawling down the wall towards the mother.
"Let's go!"
At this time, Su Qingyao took two soldiers, all of whom held torches in their hands, and rushed towards the mother worm. Stalagmites kept falling from the roof of the cave, and two of them smashed beside the three of them, splashing large and small rubble. Su Qingyao cultivated internal strength, so he could naturally dodge, and the two soldiers were also very athletic, and when the stalagmites fell, they could even dodge.
I pushed away the two soldiers beside me, and at this time my body was no longer numb, but my whole body was as painful as a thousand needles pricked, and when I turned my head, Su Qingyao and the three of them had already run to the side of the female worm.
Its eyes were no longer there, and it was still blindly stumbling around at this time, with bursts of screams coming out of its mouth, and when Su Qingyao and the three of them rushed to it, it was crashing into the stone wall.
I only heard a "bang" sound, and the stone wall exploded open, and countless rubble flew up.
At the same time, Su Qingyao and the three of them had already pulled out their bodies and were ready to throw the torch in their hands at the female worm. The three of them were very close to the mother worm at this time, the female worm had just hit the stone wall, the castration on its body was exhausted, and it had no eyes, and it couldn't hide from the torches in the hands of Su Qingyao and the three of them at this time.
Suddenly, my heart tightened, but I saw the two worms clinging to the stone wall quietly pounce down from the top of the cave, one left and one right, knocking down the two soldiers who were about to throw torches, and before the two soldiers could scream, they were bitten by the throats of the two worms, and the torches in their hands fell to the ground.
However, the torch in Su Qingyao's hand was still thrown out. When he threw out the torch, the two worms were knocking down the two soldiers, after all, Su Qingyao had internal strength, and his reaction was not slow, and after throwing out the torch, he immediately pulled back and distanced himself from the two worms.
Just as Su Qingyao retreated, the female worm let out an extremely terrible cry.
"Tsk~~~"
Although only Su Qingyao's torch was thrown out of the three, the torch hit the tail of the female worm, and its tail burned violently like a fierce fire oil meeting a spark, and in the blink of an eye, its tail was covered with flames.
The female worm seemed to be in a hurry, and suddenly jumped high, its body was already very large, and in such a jump, the upper body hit the top of the cave. I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but when it fell again, the insect body rolled on the ground, breaking two huge stone pillars, and the huge body rolled into the dark pit.
Suddenly, the entire cave shook violently as if the sky had collapsed, and the stalagmites on the top of the cave really fell like rain.
I was taken aback, but I heard the yellow catcher next to me shouting loudly: "The hole is about to collapse, hide in the wormhole!"
The cave kept shaking, and the yellow catchers retreated to the cave wall and crawled towards the wormhole, at this time, in addition to the stalagmites falling on the top of the entire cave, those dark yellow big stones and small stones also fell down one after another.
Two soldiers and I ran to the cave wall while dodging the large rocks falling from the roof of the cave, and by the time we reached a wormhole, the entire cave had collapsed, and even half a boulder the size of a house had fallen from the roof of the cave. A short scream was heard not far away, and several soldiers who had not had time to retreat were hit by a boulder falling from the roof of the cave, and the screams stopped abruptly as soon as they sounded.
The two soldiers had already burrowed into the wormhole, and I did not hesitate to follow them into the wormhole.
"Boom"
Not long after I climbed into the wormhole, there was a dull loud noise from the hole behind me, and the surroundings were immediately plunged into total darkness. I couldn't see anything in front of me, but there was a thick dust floating between my nose, and I covered my mouth and nose and moved away from the hole.
The cave collapsed quickly, and it ended abruptly. We waited in the wormhole for a few moments before the sound of the cave collapsing slowly faded away. However, the wind from the collapse of the cave rushed into the wormhole, and the wind was mixed with dust, and although the wormhole was small, it was like a storm of sand, which made my eyes hurt.
After this dust wind blew, the cave was completely quiet.
We waited in the wormhole for a while, and when we were able to breathe more easily, the two soldiers lit torches. They all carried flint and pine tarpaulin, but they did not have a wooden stick in their hands, but a torch lit with a large knife as a stick.
They handed me the broadsword, and I held it up and probed the head of the fire towards the entrance of the wormhole. The entrance to the cave has been half buried in dust and rubble, and it is not completely blocked.
I carefully dug up the dust that was blocking the hole, digging the hole bigger, and when the dust was almost dug up, I got out of the wormhole.
As far as the fire could see, there was stone dust everywhere, and the stalagmites on the top of the cave disappeared, and at this time there were potholes on it, and a thick layer was laid on the hole, which had covered the original ground. Except for the wormhole on the cave wall, the only thing that hasn't changed is the stone pillars that support the entire cave. It's just that now there are only three stone pillars left that have not fallen.
I was slightly shocked in my heart, I really couldn't imagine that this hole in the ground had not completely collapsed to such a point. Maybe it was the support of the three stone pillars that did not collapse that the hole did not collapse completely, right?
At this time, the same firelight lit up in several wormholes not far away, followed by Huang Zhutou and Feng Dingsheng, they also drilled out of the wormhole. I glanced at the yellow catcher and them, and in the dim hole, they were all gray-faced, their clothes were torn, stained with red and green blood, and they were all embarrassed.
There was a dry cough behind me, and I turned to look and saw Su Qingyao crawling out of a wormhole. He was originally wearing a wide gray robe, but the gray robe on his body was gone, revealing his brown suit, but there were also a few tears in his clothes.
When Su Qingyao saw me, he walked over to me and said, "Gu Darttou, is your body okay?"
Thrown against the stone wall by the mother, my whole body felt like a shelf, and after the numbness of my body, there were bursts of tingling pain, which seemed to hurt into my bones. But the most painful thing is my left forearm, my left forearm has been broken, and my left hand is no longer able to move.
I shook my head and said, "It's not a big deal. ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I immediately felt a bone-scraping pain in my forearm, and I only felt a terrible pain in the left hand of my entire forearm.
Huang Zhutou and Feng Dingsheng also came over. Counting those who were bitten to death by the worms and those who were stoned to death by falling stones from the roof of the cave, we can say that there were heavy casualties this time, and there were nearly thirty people when they entered, and now only fourteen people are still moving.
Huang Zhutou looked around and said, "Mr. Su, those worms are already dead, right?"
Su Qingyao said: "The female worm was cut off by Gu Dart's head, and then I set the worm on the body, and I don't think I can survive." He looked at the gravel and dirt under his feet, and said, "Although those larvae are buried in the ground, I can't guarantee that they are dead, so we better be careful." ”
I looked at my feet as well. The stalagmite boulder on the top of the cave collapsed, raising the place by as much as three feet, and the stones that fell were as big as houses, and the small ones were the size of grinding discs, so many stones fell from the top of the cave, and covered the entire hole, those worms couldn't withstand such a toss even if their bodies were strong, right?
Huang Zhutou said: "Don't talk about this yet, let's find a way to get out of here." ”
Su Qingyao nodded and said, "Yes, this cave has collapsed once, and it is hard to guarantee that it will collapse, so it is better for me to leave this place as soon as possible." ”
Feng Dingsheng's face was a little ugly, and he said, "But how can we get out of this place, from the wormhole?"
When he said this, we couldn't help but fall silent.
The only exit from this cave to the outside is these wormholes, and if we want to leave this place, we have to start with them. However, we all slide down from wormholes, and these wormholes are only passages that lead from top to bottom, and the walls in the passages are smooth and difficult to climb, and the roads are unusually steep, and it is almost impossible for people to climb out of the wormholes. In the case of a worm, it is much easier to crawl out of the wormhole.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, no, there must be an exit.
When I escaped from the hole above, I put a fire in the hole so that I could burn the worms in the iron cage, but when we went down to the hole, the fire I set was doused with water. I'm sure it's the fire that people put out, and the worms wouldn't be so smart, only people can think of putting out fires with water. The state jail was covered in fire at the time, and when we stood at the door of the jail, there were no worms, let alone human figures. In that case, the man must have gotten through the wormhole and escaped from it.
Thinking of this, I said to Feng Dingsheng: "General Feng, there must be an exit here, you can send someone to the wormhole to check it out." ”
Feng Dingsheng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll send people to investigate one by one, I hope that if it's really as Gu Daotou said, I can find an exit." ”
After he finished speaking, he beckoned the remaining soldiers to walk towards the dozens of wormholes on the stone wall, and I, Huang Zhutou and Su Qingyao, were not idle, and also walked towards those wormholes.
There must be an exit here, I thought to myself.
I came to a wormhole, there was already a lot of dirt and gravel flowing into this wormhole, I held the fire with the big knife in my hand, I stuck the big knife upside down on the ground, and with my right hand began to pick up the dirt at the mouth of the wormhole. I couldn't move my left hand anymore, so I had to use my right hand to pick up the dirt, which was so damp that I only dug twice and my hands were covered with slimy wet mud.
That person can get together with the worm, and he thinks it is the red-robed young man. But if it was him, what method did he use to avoid the attack of the worms? Could it be that it was only because he raised these worms that those worms would not harm him? The body of the female worm was already four or five feet high, and now thinking about the situation just now, I still have lingering palpitations, how long does it take for such a big worm to grow such a large body?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shudder, could it be that there have been people raising worms under the state government prison, and they have been raising them for a long time? If this is the case, then the state government has really become a big joke place.
The wormhole in front of me had already been dug by me, and although I only had one hand to move, I was fast, and the wormhole was enough for me to get into.
I picked up the big knife stuck in the ground, pressed the fire, and the man bent down and got in. This wormhole is the same as the two wormholes I've seen, the walls of the passage are round, smooth, damp, and smelly of fish.
Returning to the wormhole again, I didn't have the previous feeling of depression, but there was an indescribable peace of mind in my heart, as if the danger brought to me by the hole behind me had not weakened by half a point, but this small wormhole made me feel very safe. I bowed forward with the big knife, and the pine tarpaulin rolled on the big knife was burning brightly, illuminating a piece of the field in the wormhole, and I could see it clearly.
After walking about ten zhang or so, I saw that the wormhole suddenly turned a corner, and the passage changed direction straight up. I walked to the bend of the passage and stretched out my head to look up, only to see that the slope of the passage was unusually steep, and the fire could no longer shine at any higher place, and it was pitch black. It's like a bottomless well.
I couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and bent over towards the mouth of the wormhole. When I crawled out of this wormhole, several soldiers were bowing out of several wormholes on the other side of the cave, with a look of loss on their faces, thinking that the wormholes they were exploring were the same as mine, and they were turning upwards.
I walked towards another wormhole next to me, and did the same way to remove the wet mud from the hole, and when I had dug up the dirt at the hole, I went into the wormhole again with a torch. However, this wormhole is the same as the wormhole just now, and the passage is also soaring, and people cannot pass through. (To be continued.) )
