Ye Han still didn't think much about it, but more earth caves gradually came into his sight. After walking a few hundred meters, he could see four or five earth caves with similar shapes at a glance.
Something suddenly moved in an inconspicuous soil hole on the right, and loose soil washed down the hole.
Ye Han finally realized that something was wrong and immediately growled: "Stop making noise, there's something going on!"
The soldiers immediately shut up and looked outside the car.
Xiao Yuan asked in a low voice: "Company commander, what's going on?"
"I don't know." Ye Han shook his head, "These holes must have been dug by giant insects, I just don't know what kind of insects they are."
"Could it be an ant?" Xiao Yuan asked.
"It's possible, but the entrance is not like an ant hole, and the density is too high." Ye Han said.
"Do you need to stop and take a look?" Qiao Hai asked.
Ye Han shook his head: "No, let's leave it to the troops behind." The giant insects can't be killed all. Although they killed a dozen giant insects along the way, they were just trying to catch the rabbits, so they stopped deliberately.
There is no need to go big.
His eyes were always fixed on the moving earth hole. As soon as he finished speaking, something shook in the hole. Ye Han immediately opened his eyes wide and stared at the earth hole dozens of meters away.
The soldiers noticed that something was wrong with Ye Han's expression, and they all followed his gaze and looked at the irregular dirt holes beside the road.
I saw a huge black butt staggering out of the soil hole, two powerful hind legs digging into the soil, and the left leg suddenly twisted and clasped the edge of the hole, and jerked outwards,
Half of the butt has already exited the hole.
"What's this? Tug of war?" Xiao Yuan was shocked.
Ye Han patted Qiao Hai on the shoulder and signaled Qiao Hai to slow down. Qiao Hai immediately parked the car on the side of the road. The narrow windows on the right side of the off-road vehicle were suddenly filled with curious heads.
"It looks like an ant!" Zhuo Haoran said.
"It's an ant." Ye Han said.
After dealing with this thing for so long, he could identify what kind of insect that butt belonged to just by looking at it. The problem was that he had never seen giant ants playing tug-of-war, and he couldn't help but be curious. Could it be that these holes in the soil were just made recently?
An ant hole that has been dug but not yet decorated?
Could it be that this giant ant is not playing tug-of-war, but transporting excavated earth outwards?
"Company commander, will you kill it?" Zhuo Haoran asked.
Ye Han shook his head slightly: "Look what it is doing."
The two middle legs of the giant ant also retreated from the hole, and the thorax was about to emerge from the hole. Judging from the size of the tail of the giant ant, this should be an adult worker ant with a body length of more than three and a half meters. Such a giant ant
The cross-section of the body is about eighty centimeters, and the giant ant is actually not cramped when moving in the soil hole.
The two front legs of the giant ant finally exited the soil hole, and the six powerful insect legs sank into the soil at the same time. Suddenly, the giant ant violently pulled out of the hole, and the ant's head finally came out of the sky.
Ye Han and others were shocked to find that between the giant ant's oversized jaws, there was a thick earth-yellow insect head. There was a helmet-like neck protector on the insect head, and there was an unusually wide and strong one on the left and right sides, which looked like protective wings.
Something like that to protect the cheeks.
The unique and ugly appearance was unique to this family. Ye Han exclaimed in surprise: "Mole cricket?"
Others were also extremely surprised. No one expected that the tug-of-war with the giant ant was actually a mole cricket!
One of the mole cricket's front legs was bitten by the giant ant, but the other front leg kept inserting itself into the cave wall extremely resolutely, trying to get stuck and avoid being dragged out by the giant ant. However, although the mole cricket was strong, it was far away.
Far inferior to the giant ant, he was dragged out of the cave by the giant ant in a few moments, and a giant mole cricket more than two meters long was displayed in front of everyone.
Without the protection of the earth hole, the mole cricket had no resistance in front of the giant ants. It was bitten to the ground by the giant ants in a few times, and the skin and flesh were torn open and swallowed.
The mole cricket waved its wide and short forelimbs in vain, but it had no effect. However, until the giant ant bit the mole cricket into two pieces, the mole cricket's resistance still did not stop.
Ye Han rubbed his forehead in confusion: "Oh, why is this?" Mole crickets are not social insects, but with so many holes in the soil, they couldn't have been dug by a mole cricket, right?
"Company commander? Fight or not?"
Ye Han nodded: "Solve it quickly and get going!"
"I'll do it!" Zhuo Haoran set up the machine gun and knocked over the giant ant with a short burst of fire. The overturned giant ant's body was thrown and its legs were kicking wildly, but Zhuo Haoran didn't even look at it and quickly retracted into the car, "Okay.
Got it!"
"Let's go!" Ye Han said.
The off-road vehicle set off again. Ye Han thought for a moment and reported the encounter with the giant mole cricket to the headquarters.
He knew that this thing lived underground, but he didn't know exactly what it ate to survive. It didn't seem to be the kind of ferocious carnivorous insects.
But having said that, why bother with it? How to deal with the giant mole cricket is a matter for the boss. He is only responsible for reporting the situation.
"How come this thing has become so big?" Xiao Yuan asked sadly.
"Who knows." Ye Han said.
He couldn't help but start to wonder whether the headquarters had never received the report in this regard, or whether after receiving it, it felt that the mole crickets were not dangerous and did not report it to the grassroots troops.
"Change, change, change everything!" Xiao Yuan was quite self-deprecating, "Every fish, turtle, shrimp, crab, grass, or tree will become bigger. We humans are still so big. No matter where we go in the future, we will follow them.
It’s like a Lilliputian country, how exciting it is!”
"You really dare to think!" Zhuo Haoran laughed, "The way you think about it, why can't a big tree be a thousand meters high? Just like insects, people can live in the tree by just digging a hole in it. If all the trees are
If it is hollowed out, it will become a huge city."
"That's good!" Xiao Yuan also laughed, "Such a big city must be divided into zones, directly divided into bark zone, trunk zone, tree heart zone and canopy zone. It's clear and direct."
"Return to the root area and the tip area!" Ye Han shook his head after hearing this, "Can you build a tree branch village just by giving you a tree branch?"
"It's necessary!" Xiao Yuan nodded solemnly, "It would be even better if it was a fruit tree. When the fruits are ripe in autumn, there is no need to pick them. At that time, the whole tree will be mobilized, and hundreds of millions of people will cut dozens of meters together.
A cut piece of tall fruit can weigh dozens of tons and must be transported by heavy-duty trucks. If you pick only one hundred and eighty pieces, you can feed the entire city for several years."
Zhuo Haoran couldn't help but roll his eyes: "What a beautiful thought. Why didn't you say that the parasites in the trees also became giant? If they suddenly entered the residential area, it would be like Godzilla entering the city. Use tanks to kill them.
You may not be able to drive them away.”
"I don't like hearing this anymore." Xiao Yuan glared, "What do you mean by driving them away? The bugs in the trees are so delicious. If they really pop up, they will catch at least dozens of tons of meat.
