The death insect is an extremely sensitive animal. It can sense the insects crawling in the sand within a few meters through the vibration of the sand. Before everyone had taken a few steps, the giant insect obviously sensed the danger, and its body suddenly It shrank down into the sand, and then burrowed deeper into the yellow sand.
Bai Yiqing and Yu Fei's spiritual senses noticed that this guy was trying to escape and immediately rushed forward. However, in just a moment, the giant insect had penetrated deep into the sand and could no longer be traced.
"Damn it, why did this thing drill so fast?" Yu Fei cursed loudly.
"With so many of us, it seems it won't come out again," Luo Zi said sadly.
Tieniu kicked the Dongfeng Warrior hard and shouted a national curse loudly.
However, at this moment, a blood-red snake-shaped figure quickly sprang out from the sand at the feet of the old ghost head. The old ghost head broke out in a cold sweat, hurriedly took a few steps to the side, and ran away in an instant. Four or five meters away.
The giant bloody worm did not chase the old ghost head. Instead, it opened its big mouth and sprayed a ball of acid at Ding Hao who was standing aside. Because the distance was too close, Ding Hao had no time to dodge and stared at him. Just as he was about to be sprayed by the acid, a soft white light suddenly flashed through and turned into a light shield in front of Ding Hao, blocking the attack of the acid.
It turned out that Bai Yiqing took action in time and saved Ding Hao's life.
When Li Qiang and others saw the giant bloody insect running out on its own, they quickly raised their automatic rifles, aimed at the giant insect's head and fired wildly. However, the moment the gun rang out, the giant insect flew towards Yu Fei. A dazzling bolt of lightning was released from where he was standing, and the lightning hit the Dragon Soul Sword in Yu Fei's hand, and the Dragon Soul Sword immediately released a dazzling white light...
However, Li Qiang and others did not give the giant insect a chance to spray acid or release lightning. They fired violently, tongues of fire carrying angry bullets, all of which hit the giant insect's ugly sunflower-like body. In the mouth.
After the gunshot, I saw that most of the giant insect's entire head had been cut off. Half of its body was exposed outside the sand, and the other half was still buried in the sand. There was no movement at all. It seemed that this The death worm has now become a real "dead worm".
Everyone turned around to see Yu Fei, who was hit by the lightning released by the giant insect, but still stood motionless.
Luo Zi was startled, and immediately ran towards Yu, rushed to his ear and shouted: "Brother,"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Fei trembled suddenly, turned around and said, "Brother, why are you shouting so loudly? You scared me."
Seeing that Yu Fei was fine, Luo Zi breathed a sigh of relief: "You just scared me. Seeing that you haven't moved for a long time, I thought you..."
"What's wrong, I thought I was electrocuted to death, but actually I'm also wondering. I was just hit by such a strong lightning, but I'm fine, and this sword..." Yu Fei stopped talking.
"What happened to this sword," Luo Zi asked.
Yu Fei smiled: "Haha, it's okay, let's go see those nasty bugs,"
At this time, Bo Xinwen and others in the beacon tower also heard the sound and ran out, and they all walked towards the bloody giant insect together.
Bai Yiqing swung out a spiritual tail and rolled the entire body of the giant insect out of the sand. Only then did everyone see the full picture of the giant insect. The total length was only about four or five meters, and its head had been hit by a depleted uranium armor-piercing projectile. It was so pulpy that some thick black liquid flowed out from the wound, emitting an extremely pungent smell, which must have been the highly corrosive and highly toxic acid.
Li Qiang picked up a sharp military machete, stepped forward and slashed at the giant insect's neck until the entire head was chopped off.
Then Li Qiang slowly knelt down in the hot sand. Haizi, Tieniu and Xiao Cao also knelt down. Li Qiang raised his head and shouted loudly: "Lao Wu, brothers have avenged you, rest in peace."
A group of people walked into the beacon tower and looked at Lao Wu's corpse that had been corroded by strong acid. Even Ding Laosan, who had been dealing with corpses all his life, couldn't bear to look at it anymore. The young man who was still alive and kicking in the morning was gone in the blink of an eye. The yin and yang were already separated, and the death was so miserable that everyone present could not help but sigh.
Everyone dug a deep sand pit next to the beacon tower, buried Lao Wu's body, and let him rest here forever. Let's watch the sea of death together with this ancient beacon tower that has stood for thousands of years. .
After finishing the funeral arrangements for Lao Wu, everyone continued to look for the entrance to the so-called underground passage in the beacon tower.
The area inside the beacon tower is not very large, about a dozen square meters. There is only one entrance, and it is divided into two floors. However, the upper floor has been almost destroyed by wind and sand. The lower floor is relatively well preserved. There was no debris piled up, and the walls were bare. Bo Xinwen had searched before and found no entrance to the underground passage. Now that so many people were searching together, Yu Fei, Bai Yiqing, Kun Yuanzi and others urged them out again. After searching through the spiritual consciousness, nothing was found.
"Brother Bo, could it be that there was a mistake?" Mr. Ye said.
Bo Xinwen took out the GPS locator and looked at it carefully, and said with some confusion: "The displayed longitude and latitude coordinates are obviously here, and there happens to be an ancient beacon tower here. It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
"Could it be that when the ghosts came here, they found the positioning chip embedded in the remains of the ancient tomb and destroyed the chip, so the last GPS coordinate information displayed was here," Yu Fei said A reminder from the side.
Bo Xinwen frowned: "I don't rule out this possibility, but I always feel that there is something wrong with this beacon tower, otherwise the cult would not have placed such a huge insect of death here,"
"How do you know that the death insect was placed here by someone from the ghost realm?" Kun Yuanzi asked puzzledly.
"I just guessed that the death bug is an extremely rare species. Many people living in the Gobi have only heard of it and have never seen it, let alone such a huge death bug. We have only entered the desert a few hours ago. , but I have already seen two, I’m afraid it’s not just a coincidence,”
"I don't care whether the Death Insect was placed here by someone from the ghost realm, but I can be sure that there is indeed no underground secret passage in this beacon tower." Bai Yiqing is a thousand-year-old fox fairy after all, and his spiritual consciousness is quite powerful. If there is a secret passage, , it’s impossible for her not to be able to detect it.
Bai Yiqing said so definitely, and I believe he is right, but what Bo Xinwen said may not be unreasonable. If this beacon tower is not the entrance to the base of the ghosts, then what does it have to do with the ghosts?
