It happened so fast that we didn't even have time to react. We didn't even see what had happened to the shop assistant.

"Save me!"

The legs below the man's waist were completely gone. He was lying on the ground, covered in blood, and his desperate face was shouting at us.

"Hold my hand tight!"

I roared, I anxiously tried to pull the servant away, but Zhu Yingqiong pushed me away and anxiously said: "Run quickly, otherwise you will lose your life!"

Before I could react, a hole suddenly appeared under the worker's soil. After that, a greyish thing drilled out from the soil, wrapped around the worker's body, and dragged him into the hole.

This time, I didn't even scream. I only saw blood spurting out of the soil and staining the surrounding ground red. But at the same time, the ground I was standing on started to roll up, just like in the movie.

My entire body trembled. I knew that it was definitely the monster that had ambushed the shop assistant that was charging towards me. I immediately leaped over a meter away and madly ran with my legs. I shouted, "There's something underground! Run!"

Even without me shouting, everyone had seen the situation and immediately ran for their lives. Under the soil, more and more monsters gathered and surrounded us from all directions. It seemed that there was more than one monster underground.

Kacha!

The monk turned around and kneeled on the ground. He fired a shot and the bullet landed on the soil, but it did no good. His expression changed as he rolled away from the spot where he was standing and landed on the ground.

"Fourth Master, you can't run away, quickly get on the rocks!"

The monk shouted urgently, and with a leap, he jumped onto a huge boulder that was half a meter tall. Just as a shop assistant behind him jumped into the air, I saw a hole appear in the ground.

In less than ten seconds, the shop assistant was ejected from the soil. When we looked again, we saw that he was already dead, his body was covered with blood and mud, and both his legs were bitten off.

Seeing this situation, the other worker beside him was completely confused and did not know what to do. Hai Yang agilely grabbed the assistant by the armpits and dragged him to the giant rock. The monk was quick to grab the two and climbed up.

"Sanjin, come over here!"

The ocean was shouting at me with all my might, but Zhu Yingqiong and I were running towards the huge boulder alone, and only heard the rumbling sounds coming from behind us, I did not dare to look back, and only ran towards them head first. The monk was standing on top of the huge boulder and continuously shooting at me from behind, and I quickly rushed to the front of the boulder, and jumped up with one step.

Zhu Yingqiong's movements were even faster than mine. She was nimble as she jumped left and right in front of the boulder, but not only did she not jump up immediately, she was even holding onto the blade of the machete that the ocean saved her life. Holding it in her hand, she turned around and slashed down.

"Hurry up!"

I bent down and stretched out my hand, grabbed her wrist and pulled hard, gritting my teeth. Then I pulled Zhu Yingqiong onto the huge boulder and looked at the soil beneath, the hole in the ground had slowly disappeared.

Phew...

The few of us panted heavily. After all, what happened just now was too urgent and chaotic, and being able to escape with our lives was already a blessing from the heavens.

Fourth Uncle's face was terrifyingly gloomy. After all, he had lost two shop assistants in an instant.

This boulder is over half a meter tall, and it is wide enough for a few of us to stand on it. Clearly, we have not come into contact with the soil, so all the monsters below the ground did not attack us, but looking around, we are at the center of these ruins. The ground around us is filled with monsters that are attacking us from all sides, and it is almost the size of a football field.

The monk pointed his gun at the soil underneath the huge rock and asked, "Crown Prince, did you clearly see what monster is earlier?"

I shook my head. I could only see their greyish, muddy bodies. I couldn't tell what they were at all. They were too fast for me to see them clearly. The moment I caught sight of them, they immediately dove into the ground.

Zhu Yingqiong said in a clear and cold voice. "This area should be the range of the underground monsters' movements. Those people who died were bitten to death by these monsters, we have to leave immediately!"

Hai Yang raised her thumb and measured the distance in front of her as she said, "Look, this open area is filled with collapsed ruins and boulders. It's about 50 meters away. There's a jungle ahead, what did you guys find?"

Without waiting for a reply, Hai Yang impatiently said, "Soil, damn it, this area's soil is black and red!"

I was stunned and immediately looked towards the ground. I was shocked when I saw that the soil we were standing on was indeed black and red. It looked just like the soil at the edge of a swamp.

The two colors separated, and it was extremely obvious. We can only blame ourselves for not paying attention to the color of the ground!

The monk asked the Fourth Uncle: "Fourth Master, where do we go next?"

Fourth Uncle said with a gloomy face: "I want to know what the monsters below us are so that I can be sure of my next steps."

I asked in astonishment, "How can I see these monsters clearly? Could it be that he went down to catch one? "

The monk smiled and put down the shotgun on his body. He slowly fished out something from his backpack. After hearing my question, he said, "Use bait to lure them!"

"Decoy?"

I was shocked. Damn, bait? Doesn't that mean we have to use people to lure them? It took a lot of effort before they managed to get here. If we continue on, there's only death. Who would be willing to abandon their own lives to be bait?

Hai Yang decisively said: "Fourth Master, you saved my life earlier, so I will be the bait!"

Fourth Uncle shook his head. At this time, the monk had already taken out a rope from his backpack and tied it around his waist.

I was startled, I looked towards Fourth Uncle, I understood immediately after Fourth Uncle did not say anything. had just said that he needed to know what the monster below him was, and the monk knew what to do, no wonder the monk was the only one who was close to Fourth Uncle, because he knew Fourth Uncle, and understood Fourth Uncle's words, so the monk did not even need to continue asking, and knew what to do. Even if it was throwing his life away, the monk would not reject!

I frowned. "Isn't it too dangerous? Should we use another method?"

Fourth Uncle did not say anything. Hai Yang pulled out a rope from his backpack and said, "Then I will go down with Big Baldy. We have a companion!"

The monk scolded, "Are you f * * king full? I don't want to distract myself and save you. "

He then threw the other end of the rope to Hai Yang, "If you see something wrong, pull back immediately!"

Hai Yang held the rope and nodded at the monk with a serious expression. I also walked over to help and prepared myself. If there was any movement from the monk side, we would immediately use force to snatch him back from the monster's mouth.

Zhu Yingqiong picked up the monk's hunting rifle, put it on the safety, and stared at the monk. Whenever the monster appeared, she would decisively shoot, and I suddenly realised that this woman was definitely not a simple person. Not only was she fast, she was also proficient in using firearms.

Fourth Uncle also stared at the monk nervously. From his eyes, I could tell that the monk was very important to him.

The monk tried the rope tied around his waist and clenched his machete. He jumped down from the boulder without any hesitation and stood on the soil. All of us held our breath, ready to pull the monk back at any moment.

One step!

The monk took a cautious step forward, but the soil was calm and there wasn't the slightest movement. On the other hand, I was sweating profusely from nervousness, and my heart was thumping rapidly.

Two steps!

There was still no movement from the ground. The monk felt that something was amiss, so he simply stomped his feet on the ground.

Hai Yang whispered to me, "The bald donkey is a real man, but could it be that those monsters have eaten their fill and are now playing Landlord during their lunch break?"

I looked at him speechlessly and didn't have the mood to bicker with him. The monk took another step forward, but there was still no movement from the ground. I thought to myself that it was weird. Could it be that he really went for his afternoon nap?

The monk tightened the rope around his waist. Suddenly, with a swoosh, he jumped one meter and took three or four steps forward. He then quietly stood on the ground, holding the machete tightly in his hand and coldly observed the ground.

At this moment, my pupils suddenly contracted. My eyes were fixated on the area behind the monk. The black ground suddenly started to roll up and it charged towards the monk.

"Behind!"

I anxiously shouted at the monk, but it was already too late. The black soil that was rolling in the air instantly charged to the monk's feet. I panicked and was about to pull the rope to the back when I saw the monk suddenly somersault and stably land behind the monk.

Immediately, I saw the ground churn and an extremely dull and unpleasant sound come from underground. It should be the cry of that monster.

We heaved a sigh of relief and secretly thought that the monk was very skilled. But at this moment, a rumbling sound came from the ground where the monk was standing. The monk's legs actually sunk into the soil, all the way up to his knees!

Anxious, we pulled on the rope and shouted, "Pull!"

At the same time, Hai Yang and I pulled the rope back, pulling the monk out of the soil and towards us.

At the place where the monk was being pulled up, the moment his body left the soil, the rolling ground instantly calmed down. That extremely unpleasant roar came out from the soil once again, and it was very ear-piercing, as if it was warning us.

As soon as the monk returned to the boulder, we surrounded him and looked at his legs. Seeing that his legs were fine, I heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, we managed to pull him back in time.

Fourth Uncle smoked and asked, "What is it?"

The monk shook his head. "I can't see it clearly. It's a long strip. It's not a snake, but it's very strange …"

As he spoke, the monk raised the machete in his hand and dried off the blood on the blade. Then, he took out an object the size of a fingernail. He said, "Strange, this thing has scales!"

I was shocked. Scale?

What was it that was covered in scales and still living in the soil? The most important piece of scale is so huge, what the f * ck is it?

The monk continued lightly, "I only got one cut, and it escaped. But under the soil, there's definitely more than one. The one that attacked me just now was the other one."

Fourth Uncle studied the scales for a long time before putting the scales back into his pocket, and said: "Are you sure it isn't a snake?"

The monk nodded, "The snake's body is small, but the python's speed is not that fast. Furthermore, its movements are even bigger than this."

I also frowned. "That's right, the viper's body is very small, and it can injure people with its venom, so it doesn't have the strength to drag a person into the ground. The python's body is big, and the moment it moved it would be very loud, and its speed wouldn't be very fast, so the monster under the ground would have a python's body, but it would be even more nimble than a python. And the most important point is that the python wouldn't move like the wind in the soil."

"Then what the f * ck is it?" "It's not a snake, but it has scales. What, a dragon?" The sea howled as it smoked.

I frowned. "Dragon your head! Which dragon do you think will drill its way through the soil? There are many scales and there are also many long strips of things in this world."

Hai Yang chuckled and said, "I was just telling everyone what I should be able to think of for their reference."

Fourth Uncle thought for a while, and finally said: "We have to go down again!"

The monk didn't retort and immediately jumped back in. This time, he didn't act carefully but started stabbing the soil with his machete. I knew that he was purposely luring the monsters underneath the soil up.

I have never seen anyone who would put their life on the line. I had no choice but to tighten the rope with the sea and stare at the monk. I would like to see what exactly this monster filled with scales is!
