Chapter 6 Imprisonment

The next morning, Jiayi followed the village chief's instructions to the farmland.

The village chief was very happy when he first heard that Jiayi was coming here to hunt ground-digging insects, but then he was a little worried, hoping that Jiayi would not kill the ground-digging insects, and it would be best to kill only those who went crazy.

When there was no hope at first, he only asked to reach the minimum limit. Now that hope has appeared, he asked to reduce the losses.

Jiayi did not refuse either. This is human nature, but if the other party accuses him because of this, don’t blame Jiayi for being rude.

He didn't want to kill the ground-digging insects here all at once, leaving a little seed, and maybe he could still gain something in the future.

The fields seemed a little messy. They were originally planted on them, but now they have harvested them. It can be seen that the harvest was in a hurry. There were still some wheat ears scattered on the ground and they had not been picked up. There were bulging buns protruding from the ground, and loose soil above the buns. These digging bugs were indeed a problem. The fields had been severely damaged, as if they had been plowed, which was not normal.

Most of the time, digging insects will not run so close to the ground, which has destroyed the soil layer that grows in the plant roots.

Jiayi got off Xiaoqing's back, took out his sonar, and began to detect it at the surface.

Sonar can penetrate deep into the ground and detect holes underground. The sparse soil layers dug out by these digging insects are very obvious in the sonar, which are long strips of different colors.

There was no shadow of the digging worm in the land under my feet, and if you go deeper, you will be unable to catch the strength.

Confirm that there was no digging worm, he stretched his foot to step on the mound, and the mound that emerged immediately sank, as if he had stepped on fluffy cotton, and his entire instep was buried in the soil.

Jiayi walked around the neighborhood and saw many traces left by the ground-digging worms, but he did not see the ground-digging worms coming out.

The ground-digging worm is very tall, but that is for the insects. In any case, Jiayi cannot get into the hole where the ground-digging worm is drilled out. Jiayi has no choice but to wait for the ground-digging worm to come out.

After thinking about it, Jiayi decided not to sit still and wait for death. Although this idiom is not right to use it here, it means that.

He took out a bag of magic dust and began to arrange temporary magic arrays on the ground. The digging worms live underground and are very sensitive to underground vibrations. He is preparing to use the vibration generated by the magic array to drive the digging worms out.

The magic circle was quickly arranged. Jiayi activated the magic circle, then quickly left here and hid aside.

The magic array emitted waves of fluctuations, thinking that the vibration spreads from the ground, and the vibration spreads far underground, but the vibration amplitude is not large. Jiayi could still feel the vibration under his feet at the beginning, but he was a little farther away and could not feel it.

However, underground ground-digging insects are much more sensitive to the feeling of vibration, and this level of vibration is enough for them. Jiayi cannot make the vibration amplitude too large. If the vibration is too strong, these ground-digging insects will definitely flee to the distance if they think it is an earthquake.

However, he was a little overthinking, and with his magic circle, it was still far from simulating an earthquake.

Jiayi carefully adjusted the vibration amplitude and frequency of the magic array remotely, and used sonar to monitor the movements nearby, and was alert to the appearance of digging insects at any time.

After waiting for a long time, the digging worms did not appear. Jiayi was a little disappointed. Could it be that the digging worms had left, or that his ideas were bad, and the vibration could not have any impact on the digging worms.

He increased the vibration until the upper limit of the magic circle. Even Jiayi, who was standing in the distance, could feel the vibration under his feet. The trees not far away began to rust, as if they were swinging.

Suddenly there was feedback in the sonar, and an extra line appeared in the sonar and it was divided into forks. These digging insects did not follow the original route, but dug out a new channel.

Soon, the ground-digging worms dug the ground and came out from the ground. The ground-digging worms looked like a huge centipede, but the proportion was not as long as the centipede. The proportion was as shortened to one-third. However, each ground-digging worm had a body of nearly one meter wide, with a length of more than 3 meters, and a hard shell on the back. Jiayi was coveting this thing. There were two huge mouthpieces on their heads, like two big scythes, and behind it was a huge mouth like a chrysanthemum with teeth.

When the digging worms move forward, the mouthpiece will swallow the soil in front and then discharge it from the back, and go all the way. The discharged poop is digested by the digging worms and becomes a very nutritious fertile soil.

Although the ground-digging insects are still terrifying, they do not appear on the ground most of the time. They do not like sunlight very much, which will dry their bodies and make them feel uncomfortable.

However, the sunlight will not harm them. After these digging insects ran out of the ground, they felt the hot sunlight and buried their bodies in the soil. They drilled back and forth in the shallow soil below the surface, causing waves of small earth buns to ridge on the surface, like irregular ridges.

Jia looked at these digging insects. Although they were running, they did not look abnormal, and they did not seem to attack people. But just now he thought this way, he saw a larger digging insect suddenly rushing out of the ground. This bug was obviously a circle larger than the other bugs, and it was at least twice the size of the digging insects that came out in front. Moreover, the digging insect did not seem to be afraid of the sunlight. To be more precise, it seemed to be more irritable, and the discomfort of the sunlight shining on the body is nothing compared to the irritability itself.

After the ground-digging worm was turned out, it was not buried in the soil, but instead twisted and wandered around, looking very irritable. The head was still shaking, and the mouthpiece beside the mouth was like two big sickles. In Jiayi's eyes, the whole insect seemed like a mentally ill man holding two knives and waving on the street.

Other ground-digging worms are also very afraid of this ground-digging worm. As long as this large ground-digging worm runs to the side, these ground-digging worms will not be shaken underground and will suddenly sink into the soil and wait until the other party has passed before coming out.

Jiayi waited for a while and confirmed that the ground-digging worm was probably the culprit.

Jia quickly activated the magic array. The magic array that would only cause vibration downward immediately turned into a forbidden magic array. The soft ground for the digging worms immediately turned into an iron plate, and all the digging worms that were still underground immediately emerged from the ground.

The ground-digging worm that emerged from the ground wanted to drill back, but found that the original ground became very hard and could not enter at all. It was blocked outside. The ground-digging worm that was stopped seemed very annoyed and wanted to drill into the ground frantically, but there was no reaction at all.

The ground-digging worms that were blocking outside were walking around. They were originally a little hiding from the largest ground-digging worm, but now they didn't care to avoid it. However, the largest ground-digging worm was even more irritable. When they saw other ground-digging worms passing by, they even clamped them over without saying a word. The huge mouthpart was like a pair of scissors, and they cut a passing ground-digging worm into two pieces with one scissor.

The cut ground-digging worm did not die immediately. Green blood spilled out from the fracture, spilled onto the remaining wheat roots on the ground, corroding holes on it. The body cut into two sections was also twisting like crazy, with its head snagging on the murderer's body, biting out scratches, but the cut insects didn't have much strength. Although they bit the murderer's body, they did not leave any harm.

The other bugs that were already wandering around like crazy immediately became quiet, as if the sunlight above their heads was not so unbearable. They immediately moved away from the largest ground-digging worm. Whenever the ground-digging worm came over, the ground-digging worms next to them would disperse from afar.
