From the moment he saw the messages, Yi Tianxing knew very well that this burrowing worm was not easy to deal with, and could even be said to be quite difficult to deal with. The most terrifying thing was that this burrowing worm was moving underground, and it was unclear where it would come out from or where it would attack. It could appear at any time, and if that were to happen, it would definitely cause even greater panic.
The key point is that even if we know that the digging worms are a big threat, it is useless. Without the ability to burrow underground, it is impossible to find the traces of the digging worms. This is a huge problem. If it is not solved, it will directly affect Yi Tianxing's prestige in Xuanhuang Village.
This is an issue that cannot be ignored.
"We must find a way to lure this earthworm out. Otherwise, as long as it continues to hide, it will be like a sword hanging over our heads, and the threat it poses is too great. However, the problem now is how to lure it out."
There are quite a few people in Xuanhuang Village. When the earth-digging worms go hunting, anyone can become a target. With so many people, how to be sure that someone will become a target is obviously not an easy task.
It's not even possible.
But it is too difficult to find the digging worm. Unless you can finally hold it back at the moment when the digging worm attacks and prevent it from going directly into the ground, then it is possible to hunt down this vicious worm.
The hole in front of me was filled with high concentration of sulfuric acid, and the ground was corroded. If an ordinary person entered it, he would immediately turn into a pile of bones and die on the spot.
"It's bad, village chief. A strange fish appeared in the river. Someone was washing clothes by the river and was dragged into the river by the monster. His entire body was eaten. Only bones were left, sinking to the bottom of the river."
A woman in her thirties ran quickly from the riverside and shouted loudly.
"Da Hu, take 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 put the matter of the digging worms aside for the time being and quickly rush to the river. The digging worms were underground and could not be found on the ground. There was no way to find them. Before he could come up with a solution, he could only see what kind of monster appeared in the river.
When Xuanhuang Village was established, it was because of the proximity to the river. Moreover, this is a big river. The river is a precious river that breeds life. Here, the water resources are abundant, which will be of great benefit in the future, whether it is planting or other things, building a shipyard, etc. A natural port can be built nearby. All of these can make this area a top gathering place.
But now it seems that in this new world, there are dangers almost everywhere. Even if Xuanhuang Village is established, whether it can survive is a huge problem. Survival is still not a simple word.
The mood became heavy.
When we arrived at the river, this river didn’t have a name yet.
Looking at the rapidly rushing river water, the people living by the river subconsciously stayed as far away from the water as possible. They could also see that on the surface of the river, there was a very thin layer of blood that was quickly dissipating.
There was a smell of blood in the air.
Many people turned pale with fear, and many women who were washing clothes on the shore looked frightened. Obviously, the incident just now had brought them a great shock.
"Village chief, there are strange fish in the river. They are very ferocious. Cuihua was bitten on the arm by mistake just now. She was dragged into the water and eaten in a blink of an eye. She turned into a pile of bones. It's really cruel."
"Village chief, what should we do? There are strange fish here. We dare not go near the river at all."
When the people around saw Yi Tianxing coming, they all showed hope in their eyes.
In their hearts, it was obvious that Yi Tianxing was their only support and pillar.
"Go and ask someone to bring over a few bodies of the green-skinned monsters that were killed yesterday." Yi Tianxing looked at the river in front of him, frowned slightly, and then instructed the soldiers who followed him.
When the soldiers ran back to get the green monster's body, 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 is not easy to survive." Huang Chengyan also knew what happened in the village. He did not expect that after a peaceful night, he would be hit hard in the morning. There is absolutely no absolutely safe place in this world. There are dangers everywhere. If you are not careful, you may die.
Such an era is really too cruel for ordinary people.
"There is no paradise in this world. Even if there is a paradise, it is built by blood and flesh, and killed by hands. This is destined to be an extremely cruel era. No one can save us. The only one we can rely on is ourselves. We must save ourselves first, and then we can save others. Only when Xuanhuang Village grows bigger and stronger can we save more people. In this era, we have no choice. This is a new era."
Yi Tianxing was also in a heavy mood. Building a place to live was not such a simple matter.
Now, not only are they facing the pressure of survival, but all other human beings who have come to this world are facing this endless pressure. Every moment, someone dies, and the number of deaths is absolutely an astronomical figure.
“Village Chief…”
When Huang Chengyan heard this, a moment of hesitation flashed across his face, but he finally made up his mind and uttered two words.
There was a sound of frantic running behind him. The soldiers had already carried over three corpses of green-skinned monsters. They had only chopped off the arms of these monsters and had not intended to eat them. They had been planning to throw them outside today, but now they could be used. It was just that the corpses had become cold.
"My lord, the body has been brought here." A soldier reported.
"What's your name?" Yi Tianxing looked at the man in front of him with a soldier-like resolute face. He seemed to be usually taciturn, but he was of good height and had calluses on his hands. He must be a veteran.
"My name is Feng Yumo." The soldier replied immediately.
"Well, throw a body in. Throw it into the river." Yi Tianxing nodded and gave the order without asking any more questions.
thump!!
The body was thrown into the water with great force. The blood in the body had already solidified and the body was cold, but it still exuded a trace of bloody smell. It fell into the water and rolled in the waves.
puff!!
In just a few breaths, a strange fish with sharp teeth suddenly jumped out of the water, opened its mouth and bit the monster's body, tore off a large piece of flesh and blood, and swallowed it without hesitation. There was no taboo at all. It didn't care whether the body was cold or not. When it saw the food, it bit it without hesitation.
Moreover, it wasn't just one but a group of them that appeared.
One after another, strange fish floated to the surface of the water and surrounded the corpse, biting it at a speed that was terrifying. In just a moment, the corpse was gnawed to only bones, and sank into the water.
All of this, from throwing the body down to being gnawed into bones, the whole process, was over in less than ten breaths. The scene made the people on the shore pale. They had never seen such a ferocious fish before.
“Piranha!!”
A solemn look appeared on Yi Tianxing's face.
Piranhas, this is a piranha, with a huge head, sharp teeth, bloodthirsty eyes, and the violent swallowing process, all of which show that this is a piranha. Moreover, these piranhas are larger than normal piranhas, and some are even one meter long. It is shocking to see. This is a predator in the water, and it will immediately go wild as soon as it smells blood.
Even other aquatic overlords will retreat when they encounter piranhas.
This is because piranhas never appear alone. Once they appear, they must appear in a group with extremely large numbers. That is school hunting, which is why they have the powerful force to intimidate large numbers of water overlords.
Moreover, the piranhas before him were even bigger, scarier, and more ferocious than those in the legend.
When he thought that there would be piranhas here, and a large group of them, Yi Tianxing's face became extremely ugly.
"Hmph! I don't care if you are a piranha or not. Since you are here, then go and die. I can't deal with the earthworms, and I can't deal with you piranhas. You eat people, so I will eat you. It just so happens that there is a good treasure among the rare treasures I got. I originally planned to keep it to see if it can be used in the future. Now it seems that I must improve my strength as soon as possible."
Yi Tianxing looked towards the river with a sneer and muttered to himself.
"What a ferocious fish! As long as you go into the water, you will definitely die. It is almost impossible to deal with such a ferocious fish in the water unless you are on land. Even shooting with a bow and arrow will not work." Huang Chengyan almost pulled out a handful of his beard. His desire for strength became stronger and stronger. He used to think that reading and understanding can do things that ordinary people cannot do.
Now it seems so powerless.
His gaze fell on Yi Tianxing, and his eyes were full of determination.
"Feng Yumo, take your men to find some big poles and some ropes immediately. Also, bring all the corpses of the green-skinned monsters here. I don't believe that we humans can be frightened by a group of piranhas. No matter how powerful they are, they are still a group of beasts. Today, I want to eat piranhas."
Yi Tianxing waved his hand and spoke loudly.
There was a hint of coldness in the voice.
The series of encounters made Yi Tianxing's murderous intent even stronger.
"How does the village chief plan to deal with these piranhas? If they are not eliminated, the threat to the villagers will be too great." Huang Chengyan asked curiously. It seemed that Yi Tianxing already had a way to deal with these piranhas.
"Nothing special, just bait to lure him. Mr. Huang, let's have a fish feast today."
Yi Tianxing said in a deep voice.
The light in his eyes became colder.
If you can't deal with the digging worms, you can't deal with a group of piranhas.
The people around him all looked expectant, and they had high expectations for Yi Tianxing. After all, the abilities he had shown had already completely conquered them.
