After chopping a few rats consecutively, Qin Hai looked around and pointed at a large rock on the left side of the mountain. "Get over there, quick!"
In the blink of an eye, all the rats charged towards the huge rock, as if they had gone mad and wanted to attack them.
At this moment, the man-eating beetles that had crawled into the cave had also entered the open s.p.a.ce. Qin Hai immediately used a machete to pick up a huge rat and threw it into the sea of insects.
Du Meiqi screamed again and again when she saw this scene. Miao Qing was so scared that her face paled and her legs trembled incessantly. She was almost unable to stand up.
"Black beetle!" "Oh my G.o.d, why are there so many black beetles here!" Shen Meng stared at the man-eating beetles for a while before exclaiming.
Qin Hai quickly asked, "Sister Shen, do you know this bug?"
Qin Hai threw a few more rats into the sea of bugs and asked, "Sister Shen, do you have a way to deal with them? If there's no other way, we might not be able to get out today! "
"I did bring some insect repellent powder, but I'm not sure if it's effective against black beetles."
After seeing the black beetles, Shen Meng knew that the situation was urgent. She immediately took out a porcelain bottle from her bag, opened it and looked, and immediately said dejectedly, "There isn't enough insect repellent powder!"
Qin Hai said, "Sending a circle around this big rock is enough. If that's not enough, then G.o.d will let us die here!"
Shen Meng sighed. If she had known earlier that she would encounter such a situation, she would have brought more insect repellent. But now, it was useless to regret. He could only do as Qin Hai had said.
Just as Qin Hai and the others carefully sprinkled the insect powder around the big rock, the army of black beetles and the group of large rats in the cave finally began their confrontation.
The group of large rats no longer attacked Qin Hai and the others who were hiding on the large rocks, and began to attack the black beetles one after another.
However, facing these black beetles who were so much smaller than them, these fellows had no way to resist at all.
Soon, the army of black beetles had covered most of the open area. The remaining rats seemed to have realized the danger and began to flee in all directions in fear. Many of them even jumped recklessly towards the big rock that Qin Hai and the others were on.
At this time, Qin Hai and the others had already poured the last of the insect powder onto the big rock. The four of them squeezed in the middle of the big rock and nervously looked at the densely packed insect sea below the rock.
Qin Hai and Shen Meng were both able to maintain their calm, while Du Meiqi and Miao Qing were both terrified. One of them tightly hugged Shen Meng, while the other merely held onto Qin Hai's sleeves as his body trembled, on the verge of collapse.
As for Qin Hai and Shen Meng, they were barely able to maintain their calm, but it was also impossible to say that they were not afraid.
Although Qin Hai had been through countless life and death situations, this was the first time he had faced an endless number of man-eating bugs. In comparison, he would rather die from bullets or butcher knives. At the very least, he would die quickly and cleanly. If these black beetles crawled onto his body, the consequences would be horrifying.
As more and more black beetles swarmed into the open area, the sea of beetles seemed to surge, and the water level continued to rise. The bugs surrounding the large rock were even more so. As the newcomers continued to join in, countless black beetles gradually surrounded the rock.
Just like the sudden torrent of water, which was not something a few sandbags could handle, the ma.s.sive amount of black beetles was also not something that could be resisted by sprinkling a little insect powder. They had been too optimistic, too natural.
In other words, if there were no other changes, then they would all be buried here today!
Qin Hai had not given up yet.
He didn't want to give up before the last moment. He had been walking on the edge of life and death for so many years, but he was still safe and sound because he didn't believe that there was no such thing as a path of death. No matter what kind of desperate situation he faced, he always believed that as long as he persevered, he would be able to think of a way.
The stalact.i.te pillar closest to the boulder was very thick, so perhaps Qin Hai could not even wrap his arms around it. Furthermore, he was very close to the boulder, so he could reach it with his hands, but this stalact.i.te pillar was in the shape of an inverted vertebra. Qin Hai tried cutting it with his machete and found that the stalact.i.tes here were extremely hard and had been through many years.
