Chapter 153: The Ant Colony's Pet
The lackeys didn’t care about the queen’s feelings at all. Their only goal was to get the big bug out of its safe castle and palace—commonly known as plotting to usurp the throne.
The queen’s big belly had gone through all the hardships of her life in the narrow passage, and was covered in wounds and dying.
"Teacher Cang, you look so excited all of a sudden. Are you planning to use this thing for live experiments?" Lao Wang said, "I don't think it's necessary. The average value of this thing is less than one-fifth of a zombie, and it can only be exchanged for a few coins." "To put it another way," Li Cang suggested, "low value can also mean greater potential." Lao Wang spread his hands, "Let me make a bold prediction. Even if this thing has alienated blood, its completeness will definitely not reach the bottom line of the mill." Li Cang looked expectant, "You know what the hell, how interesting, didn't you raise ants in the fish tank when you were a child?" "No one would have such a weird habit of raising ants in the bathtub," Lao Wang said earnestly: "Teacher Cang, listen to my advice, do you know how many worker ants a queen ant needs to serve it, and this thing is more than three meters long, and with a whole group of worker ants bigger than my head, our empty island bottom Zibo, I really can't stand their harm."
"Ants are creatures with strict hierarchical discipline. Even if you put them all in the mill, they can't become your Gu worms like zombies with their minds full of food."
Li Cang fell into deep thought, muttering to himself,
"This is a problem. Their pheromones are so powerful that they can even affect people. As the 'group leader', the queen ant must naturally stand at the commanding heights in this regard. The Gu-raising method is indeed a bit unworkable."
His eyes lit up,
"Well, that alienated seed."
"Damn," Lao Wang's face was full of speechlessness, "Isn't that thing you said might be very precious?"
"Wait a minute, where is Da Leizi?"
"I'm here," Li Leisi's voice came from the depths of the captured wild island, "Don't think about your Gu-raising plan yet, come here quickly."
The area of the wild island is not particularly large, but the various vegetation on it is well preserved.
From towering trees several dozen meters high, full of aerial roots or entangled by vines and covered with moss, to dense bushes and short, large-leafed plants with strings of black and smelly rotten bananas, there is everything. The small island presents an exceptionally magical tropical rainforest ecosystem.
After a few steps into the forest, the ears are suddenly filled with the buzzing of various insects, and there is always some kind of hissing and sticky crawling sound in the fallen leaves and bushes-
The tone and texture are simply sticky and silky!
Li Cang was instantly stressed, with goose bumps all over his body, and his hair stood up like electricity.
"Mom, damn. Could the other insects on this island have also mutated?" Li Leisi squatted under a banyan tree with dense aerial roots. "Let's take a look." "Beautiful~" Li Cang consciously pulled the colorful snake off Li Leisi's dagger, "It's pretty fat." "Wow, it's so thick and long, it must be seven or eight pounds?" Lao Wang said happily, "You don't know, the young lady's hometown is at the foot of the Luoxiao Mountains, do you understand the taste of Hunan and Jiangxi? Add some yellow eel, the whole dry pot flavor snake, so domineering and nourishing!" Li Cang coiled the snake around his waist a few times and hung it, "Skin it and keep it. I remember I still have a belt made of snake skin saved in my mobile phone. Video, let me make up for it later. A fierce woman like Da Leizi, without a snakeskin belt, tiger skin cloak and bear skin hat, wouldn't it be a waste of nature? "
Old Wang nodded wildly,
"Yeah, it's best to have tattoos all over her arms, and a eagle standing on top, the kind that screams like an eagle flying in the sky!"
Well, she went straight for the image of a female bandit before liberation.
Li Lace's face was dark,
"Have you two talked enough? I'll show you that there's no snake in this tree hole! ! "
It's unknown how old the banyan tree is. The trunk can't be hugged by three or five people. It is basically integrated with the surrounding air roots. However, in the narrow gap between the air roots and the trunk, there is a corpse stuck.
"Hiss, hiss!"
The moss-covered corpse suddenly moved, scratching the trunk and roaring.
"Fuck, how did it get in?"
The two gaps were so narrow that it was hard to even stretch out an arm, and other than that, it was completely blocked by the tree trunk, like a natural prison. It would take decades for it to grow like this.
The zombie's eyes were blind, and its scars were hideous and terrifying. Its body was covered with green hair and moss. One of its legs was broken at the root, and the iconic black hard nails on its ten fingers were all violently torn off.
"No wonder it can't get out. All the parts that can damage the tree trunk have been dismantled," said Lao Wang, "I'm afraid someone deliberately put it in here to be imprisoned?"
Li Lace took out a toy flashlight and shone the light behind the zombie,
"Look~"
The woody part of the banyan tree trunk originally appeared with a circle of repaired circular marks.
The material is some kind of soil, and the shape and texture look so familiar.
Under the feet of the zombie, there are bones of various animals of all sizes, exuding the stench of rotten soil.
Li Cang stared at the circular trace, wondering, "Are they the ants?"
Li Leisi said, "Not only did they imprison it here, but they also seemed to be feeding it non-stop."
Li Cang muttered,
"Shit, this is going to be fun."
The three of them walked around the island several times, but did not find a second walking corpse in the same situation. However, they accidentally stepped on several dead bones covered by fallen leaves.
Li Cang knelt down and looked at the bones carefully.
"There is no corpse fluid after decay. You must know that human fat and meat are very powerful when mixed with rot. The corpse fluid will leave particularly obvious traces. Even in this environment, it will not disappear in a short period of time. It can be seen that After they were killed, they didn't even have time to rot before being decapitated by the butchers, probably also by ants."
"The devil wants to hear your analysis of this piece of shit," Lao Wang rubbed his goosebumps, "Damn, are these ants so smart? What do they want to do, keep a walking corpse as a pet?"
"I think it's probably the reason why the ants mutate." Li Leishu rubbed her eyebrows, "That's why the queen left her alive and raised her carefully."
Lao Wang’s scalp was numb.
"Your imagination is simply ridiculous."
Li Cang said,
"Otherwise, why would the ant go to such great lengths to blind its eyes, bite off its fingers, break a leg, and even seal it in a tree hole? I really can't think of anything else the zombies could do to the ant. What value.”
Li Leisi said,
"Ants are insects that are very sensitive to crisis and safety. Perhaps this walking corpse infected some ants in the ant colony with alienated blood for some reason, and the connection was noticed by the queen - this seems to be able to It makes sense.”
Lao Wang looked at the serious analysis of these two people and felt numb.
"Are you serious about riding a horse??"
I just got home. Fortunately, I got up at six o'clock in the morning and coded a chapter. Otherwise, wouldn't it be all gone?
