From the moment Yi Tianxing saw these messages, he knew that these Earth-Digging Bugs were not easy to deal with. It could even be said that they were quite difficult to deal with. The most terrifying thing was that these Earth-Digging Bugs moved underground. He did not know where they would come from or where they would launch attacks. They could appear at any time. If that was really the case, it would definitely cause greater panic.
The key point was that even if they knew that the Earth-Digging Bugs were a big threat, it was useless. Without the ability to escape, it was impossible to find the Earth-Digging Bugs. This was a huge problem. If he did not resolve it, it would directly affect Yi Tianxing's prestige in Xuanhuang Village.
This is a problem that cannot be ignored.
"We must think of a way to lure this Earth-Digging Bug out. Otherwise, as long as it continues to hide, it will become a sharp sword hanging above our heads. The threat it brings is too great. However, the problem now is how to lure it out."
There were quite a few people in Xuanhuang Village. If the Earth-Digging Worms wanted to kill, any one of them could become a target. With so many people, how could they be sure that the other party would become a target? This was obviously not an easy matter.
It's even impossible.
However, it was too difficult to find the earth-digging insects. Unless the Earth-Digging Bug was held back the moment it attacked, preventing it from entering the ground directly, it would be possible to kill it.
The cave in front of him was filled with high concentrations of sulfuric acid, and the ground was corroded. Ordinary people would probably immediately turn into a pile of white bones and die on the spot.
"Not good, Village Chief. In the river…Strange fish appeared in the river. Someone was washing clothes by the river and was dragged into the river by the monster. His whole body, his whole body... They were all eaten. All that remains is the bones, sinking to the bottom of the river."
A woman in her thirties quickly ran over from the river and shouted loudly.
"Big Tiger, bring your men here and seal this cave with stones. Don't let anyone get close. Let's go to the river."
Yi Tianxing's heart sank again. He could only temporarily put the matter of the Earth-Digging Worms aside and quickly rush to the river. The Earth-Digging Worms were underground and could not be found on the ground. There was no way to do anything about it. Before he could think of a way, he could only see what monsters appeared in the river.
When Xuanhuang Village was established, it was important that it was close to the river. Moreover, this was a big river. Rivers and streams were precious rivers that nurtured life. There were abundant water resources here. In the future, whether it was planting or other things, building shipyards, etc., there would be great benefits. Nearby, a natural harbor can be built. All of these could make this area a top gathering place.
However, it seemed that danger was everywhere in this new world. Even if Xuanhuang Village was established, it would still be a huge problem if it could survive. Survival is still not a simple word.
My heart became heavy.
Come to the river, this river, there is no name.
Looking at the rapid flow of the river, the people by the river subconsciously moved as far away from the water as possible. One could also see that there was an extremely thin layer of blood rapidly dissipating on the water surface by the river.
There's a smell of blood in the air.
Many people were pale from fear. Many of the women washing clothes on the shore looked like they were still in shock. Obviously, the unexpected event just now had definitely given them a great shock.
"Village Chief, there are strange fish in the river. Those fish are very ferocious. Just now, Cui Hua was accidentally bitten in the arm and dragged into the water. In the blink of an eye, she was eaten and turned into a skeleton. It's really too cruel."
" Village Chief, what should we do? With the strange fish around, we don't dare to approach the river."
When the surrounding commoners saw Yi Tianxing coming, they all revealed hopeful looks.
In their hearts, Yi Tianxing was clearly the only pillar they could rely on.
"Get someone to bring over a few green-skinned monster corpses that you killed yesterday." Yi Tianxing looked at the river in front of him and ordered the soldiers who followed him after frowning slightly.
When the soldiers ran back to get the green monster's corpse. Huang Chengyan also came to the river.
"This world is too dangerous. Strange insects have appeared underground, and now strange fish have appeared in the river. It's not easy to survive." Huang Chengyan also knew what was happening in the village. He did not expect that after a quiet night, he would be dealt a heavy blow early in the morning. In this world, there was absolutely no place that was absolutely safe. There were dangers everywhere. If one was careless, one might die.
Such an era was too cruel for ordinary people.
"There is no paradise in this world. Even if there is a paradise, it is built by flesh and blood and killed by both hands. This is destined to be an extremely cruel era. No one can save us, only we can rely on ourselves. Save yourself first, then save others. As long as Xuanhuang Village grew stronger, they could save more people. In this day and age, we have no choice. This is a new era."
Yi Tianxing's mood was similarly heavy. Building a safe place was also not such a simple matter.
Now, not only were they facing the pressure of survival, but all the other humans who had descended into this world were facing this endless pressure. At every moment, people would die, and the number of deaths was definitely astronomical.
"Village Chief…"
Huang Chengyan hesitated for a moment when he heard that. In the end, he made up his mind and spat out two words.
There was a rush from behind. The soldiers had already carried the corpses of three green-skinned monsters over. These monsters had only cut off their arms and had no intention of eating them. They had planned to throw them outside today, but now they were used. It was just that the corpses had become cold.
"My lord, the corpse has been brought over." A soldier reported.
"What's your name?" Yi Tianxing looked at the man in front of him who had a determined look on his face. He looked like he was usually quiet, but he was tall and had calluses on his hands. He was a veteran.
"My name is Feng Yumo." The soldier immediately replied.
"Throw a corpse in. Throw it into the river." Yi Tianxing nodded and instructed without further questioning.
Thump!
He threw the corpse into the water. The blood in the corpse had already solidified. The corpse was cold, but it still emitted a trace of blood. Falling into the water, tumbling in the waves.
pu!!
In just a few breaths, a strange fish with sharp teeth suddenly jumped out of the water and bit the monster's corpse. It tore off a large piece of flesh and swallowed it without hesitation. No taboos at all. It didn't matter if the corpse was cold or not. When they saw food, they started biting without any scruples.
Moreover, it wasn't just one person that appeared, but a group of them.
Strange fish rose to the surface and started biting the corpses. Their speed was so fast that it was terrifying. In just a moment, the corpses were gnawed to the bone and sank into the water.
From the moment the corpse was thrown down to the moment it was chewed into bones, the entire process was over in less than ten breaths. That scene made the faces of the people on the shore turn pale. They had never seen such a ferocious fish before.
" Piranha!"
Yi Tianxing revealed a solemn expression.
Piranhas. They looked like piranhas. Their huge heads, sharp teeth, bloodthirsty eyes, and violent devouring process all showed that they were piranhas. Moreover, these piranhas were bigger than normal piranhas. Some of them were even a meter long. It was shocking. This was a predator in the water. As long as it smelled blood, it would immediately go berserk.
Even other aquatic overlords would avoid piranhas.
This was because piranhas never appeared alone. Once they appeared, they would definitely appear as a group. There were a lot of them, and that was why they had such a powerful power to intimidate a large number of underwater overlords.
Moreover, the piranhas in front of him were even bigger, scarier, and more ferocious than those in the legends.
Yi Tianxing's expression turned extremely ugly when he thought of the piranhas here, and a large group of them at that.
"Humph! I don't care if you're a piranha or not, you're here, so go die. I can't take care of the diggers, and I can't take care of you piranhas. You eat people, I eat you. Coincidentally, there was a good treasure among the treasures I obtained. I originally planned to keep it to see if it could be used in the future, but now it seems that I have to improve my strength as soon as possible."
Yi Tianxing sneered as he looked into the river and muttered to himself.
"What a vicious fish. As long as you enter the water, you will definitely die. Unless you are on land, it is almost impossible to deal with such a vicious fish in the water. Not even with bows and arrows." Huang Chengyan almost pulled his beard off. The desire for strength in his heart also became stronger and stronger. In vain, he thought that reading books and understanding could do things that ordinary people could not do.
Now, it seemed like he was so powerless.
His eyes fell on Yi Tianxing, and he had made up his mind.
"Feng Yumo, immediately bring some people to find a few poles and some ropes. Also, bring all the green-skinned monster corpses over to me. I don't believe we can be intimidated by a pack of piranhas. No matter how powerful they were, they were still a group of animals. Today, I want to eat piranhas."
Yi Tianxing waved his hand and said loudly.
There was a hint of coldness in his voice.
The successive encounters made Yi Tianxing's killing intent even stronger.
"How does the village chief plan to deal with these piranhas? If we don't get rid of them, the threat to the villagers will be too great." Huang Chengyan asked curiously. From the looks of it, Yi Tianxing seemed to have a way to deal with these piranhas.
" He's the only one. Use bait to lure him. Elder Huang, today we'll have an all-fish feast."
Yi Tianxing said in a deep voice.
The light in his eyes grew colder.
Not against diggers, not against a pack of piranhas.
When the surrounding commoners saw this, their eyes were filled with anticipation. They had great expectations for Yi Tianxing. After all, the abilities they had displayed all this time had already completely conquered them.
