"laugh!"
Xue Yongjia used all his strength in this cut. The sharp tip of the knife pierced straight into the side of the giant earthworm's head with a powerful impact.
“Hiss—!”
The giant earthworm's mouthparts expanded and contracted violently, and its three circles of fangs expanded and shrank, making a creepy sound, as if telling of the severe pain it was suffering at the moment.
In the past, earthworms could not make any sound and they breathed by exchanging gases through the mucus on their body surface. But now, due to the influence of mutation, their large mouthparts can actually make a hissing sound.
Perhaps it's because the mouth has mutated too large, causing air leakage, which leads to this strange phenomenon.
Xue Yongjia held the knife handle tightly and slid the blade that was inserted into the giant earthworm's body downward with force. As the blade moved, a big cut was made in the giant earthworm's body, and rose-colored blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly dyeing the ground in the car red.
The giant earthworm suffered such severe damage that it was in unbearable pain and its body retreated backwards segment by segment.
The three people thought that the earthworm would retreat because of its injury. However, they never expected that after the giant earthworm retreated a short distance, its body suddenly surged forward and rushed towards them with amazing speed and strength.
This sudden change caught the three of them off guard, especially the fat man who was at a loss. He was knocked away by the powerful impact of the giant earthworm.
The fat man fell to the ground. Since he was missing an arm and still holding a knife in his right hand, he couldn't find his balance for a moment and couldn't get up. He could only hold the knife in front of him, ready to fight to the death.
Just when everyone thought that the fat man was in a bad situation, Xue Yongjia, who was behind the earthworm, used a knife to chop the earthworm's body frantically, and Guo Liang, who was next to the fat man, waved his knife to save him.
The giant earthworm's huge mouthparts suddenly changed direction. Guo Liang, who had to stand at the back due to the small space, opened his bloody mouth, full of knife-like teeth, and bit at him fiercely.
Everyone was thrown off balance by the giant earthworm's action. They didn't expect that within a short moment its heart changed several times. It was definitely a bad earthworm.
Guo Liang was only thinking about rescuing the fat man and was rushing forward.
However, unexpectedly, the giant earthworm suddenly changed direction and rushed straight towards him.
As the incident happened suddenly, Guo Liang had no time to react at all, and it was too late to retreat or dodge.
In an instant, his upper body was tightly bitten by the giant earthworm's huge mouthparts.
The three layers of sharp teeth above the mouthparts ruthlessly swallowed Guo Liang into its stomach. In just a few seconds, only his legs were left struggling outside.
"Guo Liang!"
"Guo Liang! Fuck you!!"
When Xue Yongjia saw this, his eyes suddenly turned red. He continued to wave the knife in his hand frantically, constantly slashing at the position he had been attacking before.
Because Guo Liang had once saved his life, he was determined to chop the giant earthworm to death.
The fat man stuck out his butt, struggled to stand up with difficulty, threw away the knife in his hand, and immediately reached out to grab Guo Liang's leg that was exposed outside his mouth.
"You still have to rely on me at critical moments!"
Zhu Lili stood at the end of the line and was terrified by the scene before her.
But when she saw this scene, she gritted her teeth, stomped her feet hard, and finally decided to rush forward. She stretched out her hands and desperately grabbed Guo Liang's other leg.
A few seconds later, Xue Yongjia swung the axe with gritted teeth and cut off the front part of the earthworm.
The giant earthworm's body twisted violently, and its mouthparts tightly gripped Guo Liang, constantly making swallowing movements.
If a solution cannot be found quickly, Guo Liang will either be bitten to death or suffocated to death.
Xue Yongjia gasped for breath, his eyes fixed on the earthworm that was broken into two pieces and the mouthparts that were tightly biting Guo Liang's body.
Fatty and Zhu Lili tried desperately to grab the back half of the earthworm, trying to prevent Guo Liang from being swallowed, but the earthworm was too powerful and they could not compete with it at all.
"You two, let go quickly! Otherwise Guo Liang will suffocate to death!" Xue Yongjia shouted anxiously.
Zhu Lili and the fat man looked at each other, then let go of their hands at the same time, panting. Guo Liang's body was quickly sucked in by the giant earthworm's instinctive swallowing.
Xue Yongjia immediately lowered his head and stared nervously at the broken end of the earthworm's upper body.
As expected, Guo Liang was covered in disgusting mucus and slowly slid down from the broken end of the earthworm. He looked extremely weak, as if he had lost all his strength.
“Cough cough cough… cough cough… um…”
Guo Liang coughed faintly and spat out a bunch of sticky liquid from his mouth.
The waist was bitten by the sharp mouthparts of the earthworm, with many wounds, the flesh and blood were blurred, it was a horrible sight.
Upon seeing this, the three men quickly moved Guo Liang to the back of the car, not knowing how serious Guo Liang's injuries were.
"Guo Liang! How are you? Is there any problem?"
Xue Yongjia squatted down and carefully checked the location of Guo Liang's wound. His eyes revealed concern and nervousness, hoping to find some way to help Guo Liang.
At the same time, the fat man picked up the knife and looked at the earthworms outside the car vigilantly to prevent them from attacking again.
"Ahem... I... I'm not feeling well. I can't feel my lower body. Brothers, if there's a chance... if there's a chance, please help me go to the base to see my mother."
Guo Liang's injuries were very serious. The giant earthworm's mouthparts were extremely sharp. It seemed to be just an external injury, but in fact, the first bite had already broken his lumbar spine.
This situation is difficult to cure whether in the last days or in the prosperous times.
Even in modern society, he can only live by relying on a wheelchair, and in this cruel doomsday, only death is waiting for him.
Xue Yongjia nodded vigorously and said firmly: "Don't worry! I will definitely go if I have the chance. If mom is still alive, I will help you take care of her in her old age."
Guo Liang is a very good teammate who has helped him many times and even saved his life. No matter what, he cannot let Guo Liang down.
Zhu Lili stood aside, looking at the seriously injured Guo Liang with a complicated expression.
She never expected that someone in the team would die, and so quickly.
Guo Liang looked more honest than Xue Yongjia, and was a very good person. Unfortunately, he died before she could give him pleasure. She couldn't blame her.
"Thank you…"
Guo Liang squeezed out a few words with difficulty, and a trace of relief and gratitude flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, there was a sudden cry: "Lao Xue, come here quickly!"
It turned out that the fat man discovered new circumstances while on alert.
The giant earthworm that Xue Yongjia had just chopped off was not dead. The two parts of its body began to twist and heal.
The earthworms outside were also attracted by the strong smell coming from the broken windshield and crawled over here, trying to get into the car.
