Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality
Chapter 42 Pest Control Plan
Take the sword in your hand and study it carefully.
Whether it was an illusion or not, he actually saw tiny green threads on the blade.
After wiping it with clothes, those green lines that were thinner than hair were still there.
It's just vaguely visible, not really visible.
And it's not on the surface, it's more like it's hidden inside the blade.
I have never heard of weapons made of fine iron having green lines. There were no such abnormalities when I bought it back. It seems that the blood of the banyan tree has brought some changes to it.
Qin Niu held the sword and looked at it carefully, turning it over and over, unable to put it down.
Having a good weapon is extremely important for self-defense, self-defense, and fighting.
If he could really develop a special weapon and make the sword spiritual, he would benefit from it throughout his life.
Those weapons would probably make even the Lord of Black Tiger City jealous.
Although the ancient banyan tree is a bit evil, its blood is really good.
Qin Niu's eyes flickered and he glanced at the little banyan tree blood left in the jar. He couldn't suppress the bold ideas that came to his mind.
After all, people still can’t control their desires!
We should seize the time to cultivate termites, make them more powerful and expand the population, and then send a few of them under the ancient banyan tree to serve as cannon fodder. As long as the termites can come out, I can come out.
He accidentally entered the banyan tree last time. Although he almost couldn't get out, he also gained a lot of valuable experience.
It's not dangerous to be under the tree during the day. It's only after nightfall that the banyan tree kills people.
This is a big loophole, and as long as you take advantage of it, you should be safe.
As for whether other dangers will occur, there is no way to determine this.
The road to immortality is to go against the will of nature, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a crisis at every step.
All living beings in the world want to live forever, but in the end there are very few who can do this. Only some legends are left for the world to guess.
The blood of the banyan tree can help him maintain his sword, and may even help him cultivate special types of termites. The cultivation speed under the banyan tree is twenty times faster than the outside world. These all make Qin Niu extremely excited.
To get these benefits, it's well worth taking some risks.
Putting away his sword, Qin Niu consumed a little of the banyan tree blood and applied it on the leaves of a tender green grass in order to test whether the banyan tree blood had any killing effect on plants.
No reaction.
He was going to take a look at it when he got home later in the evening.
After practicing all night, I was so hungry that my chest pressed against my back.
Another three kilograms of bear meat was eaten, which was enough to fill up the internal organs.
Put the basket on your back, lock the door and enter the mountain.
There is no farm work in the fields for the time being, just waiting for the corn to mature.
He found that the worse the crops were grown, the more farm work there was, and just weeding was enough to keep people busy. You still have to loosen the soil, water, and remove insects from time to time.
The crops are grown, but the weeds below cannot grow.
He came to the field and took a look. The corn seedlings were growing well, but he found that the top leaves of two corn seedlings were rolled up.
This is a borer.
One of the biggest pests of corn.
Qin Niu is still a low-level farmer now and has only mastered the five most basic planting skills.
I know a little bit about deworming, but it’s very superficial.
You must be at least an intermediate farmer or above to have some skills in pest and disease control.
The borer is very annoying. Even though there are only two seedlings that have been poisoned so far. If left unchecked, a large infestation will quickly develop, causing huge losses.
Although he now has the ability to hunt wild beasts, he feels at ease now that he has some food at home!
The corn that you have worked so hard to plant must not be destroyed by insects.
In more than a month, a large amount of corn will be harvested, but nothing can go wrong at this critical moment.
It took a lot of effort to get rid of the two bracts with the young leaves rolled up at the top. A total of three borers were found in their rolled leaves, and they were quite plump.
It must have been hiding in the young leaves of the corn for a long time.
It's just that Qin Niu's insect control skills were poor and he didn't notice their existence.
According to his planting experience, when a single borer is found, it means that there are already at least hundreds of borers in the valley.
You must not wait for them to destroy the corn before catching them.
That would not only result in huge losses, but would also never be enough to catch.
Because they reproduce incredibly quickly.
As long as they pupate into moths, they can easily lay a large number of eggs under hidden leaves or in weeds.
It won't take long for batches of heartworm larvae to hatch.
When the time comes, let alone him, even if he asks two more people to help, he won't be able to catch him.
I have been raising that nest of termites for some time. Although their food mainly consists of trees and young leaves, it is no problem to use them as ants. I will bring a group of worker ants down to help me get rid of the insects.
Qin Niu was thinking silently in his heart.
Termites like to be active at night. They will bring a group of workers down the mountain in the evening and send them back tomorrow morning.
The most frustrating thing is that the queen ant's reproductive skills have not been upgraded and she can only lay ten eggs a day, which is very rubbish.
We have to find a way to help the queen quickly improve her reproductive skills.
Anyway, they are now living in the big camphor tree, and they don't have to worry about food at all.
It's not like he hasn't thought about using the two low-level contract talismans in his hand to subdue two ant queens. For example, the bull ants, tiger ants, and army ants among the ferocious ants are all particularly good ant species.
Firstly, it is difficult to find suitable breeding ants, and secondly, the probability of success is really low.
Third, it takes a very long time.
By the time the new ant queens he conquered laid their first batch of eggs, and by the time they pupated and transformed into adult ants, the harvest of the corn in the ground would surely be close.
There was simply no time.
Also, to him, every low-level contract talisman is extremely precious.
If he doesn't meet a suitable and excellent creature, he would rather keep it.
The only thing we can count on now is the nest of termites.
They kill black stinky ants as if they were playing. Dealing with the helpless borers is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
Moreover, their sense of smell is very sensitive, their bodies are petite, and they move very quickly. The entire valley can become their hunting ground.
That being said, the frogs, spiders, and other bugs in the valley may kill termites.
Therefore, Qin Niu is still considering using termites to eliminate pests.
Only a small number of worker ants can be used for the experiment tonight. If the loss is too large, it must be stopped immediately.
He would rather have no grain harvest from this acre of land than destroy the nest of termites.
Let’s not lose the big for the small. In order to help the corns get rid of insects, a large number of worker ants will be lost, which will affect the development speed of the entire ant colony.
Yesterday, I lost one termite larvae when I was experimenting with banyan tree blood.
The outcome of the other one is unknown yet.
He lowered his head and frowned as he entered the mountain.
He took the three heartworms with him. He would use it to feed the termite colony and teach them the scent of the borer.
After entering the mountain, go straight to the ant nest.
On sunny days like this, many villagers will go into the mountains to collect firewood.
The technology of this world is relatively backward. It is mainly developing towards cultivation civilization. Everyone wants to live forever and respect the heaven and earth. Therefore, there is no mining and utilization of energy such as coal and natural gas.
Both ordinary people and officials use firewood and charcoal to heat their homes, cook food, and burn bricks for building houses.
Because firewood is very expensive, ordinary people cannot afford blue bricks and tiles.
At least a wealthy family like Mr. Wang can afford to build a brick house.
Basically every household will store dry firewood.
Naturally, there are many people who go into the mountains to cut firewood.
Speaking of which, only two successful people in the whole village, Wang Furen and Xu Zhenchang, built blue brick houses. Hu Laizi, who tamed a treasure hunter rat, has just started to make a name for himself in the past two years. Currently, he is only a quasi-tamer of the Animal Tamers Association, and his financial strength is probably not very strong.
So the house we are living in temporarily is not considered luxurious.
Mainly in rural areas, there are few opportunities to make money.
That's why Hu Laizi wanted to develop in Black Tiger City.
Even so, Hu Laizi is still a winner in life in the eyes of everyone. If the animal training skills can be improved to a higher level, or the treasure hunting rat can be promoted to the first level, Hu Laizi's future achievements will be much greater than Wang Furen and Xu Zhenchang.
Qin Niu is now a quasi-insect master, and his status is actually similar to that of Hu Laizi.
The location of his ant nest is considered to be close to the outer edge of the deep mountains. Under normal circumstances, no ordinary villagers would dare to come here to cut firewood.
Many villagers form a small group of three or five people and go into the mountains together.
Then chop wood in the outer reaches of the forest.
But everyone will subconsciously keep a certain distance from the mountains of the Yan family.
Although the tigers and wolves in the mountains are terrifying, the Yan family is even more terrifying than the tigers and wolves, and no one dares to offend them.
When he came to the ant nest, the nest was still quiet, with only two soldier ants standing guard at the entrance of the nest.
Because the ant colony is still very weak, it is on the defensive.
Secretly hide in this big camphor tree and develop.
This is a very good development strategy.
Fourth, bring out the young worker ant from yesterday.
Qin Niu communicated with Lao Si in ant language.
Now he is consciously improving his proficiency in insect language. He visits termites every day and communicates with them more.
Just because communication consumes a lot of mental energy, he can't communicate like they are on the phone all the time.
Currently, only the fourth child and the queen in the entire ant colony can communicate with him normally.
Other termites can temporarily receive his simple commands, but they are unable to communicate.
The writing is a bit detailed. Readers who like it will always like it. If you don't like it, I have tried my best to draw smoke, so please forgive me. The whole world will unfold bit by bit, the protagonist will slowly take the stage, and then gain a firm foothold and continue to develop. If there are any errors or omissions, please help me point them out, dear readers, and I will correct them in time. Thank you!
