Wang Ge quickly found the grove by the river that Li Zhimeng had mentioned.

There was only one river in the town, winding and twisting. It was easy to find it by walking along the river.

The grove was not big, and Wang Ge saw three beautiful figures in the grove at a glance.

The girls also noticed him rushing over and waved to him.

Wang Ge smiled and quickened his pace to rush over.

"This thing is really hard to catch."

Gu Panyan threw away the branch in her hand and frowned slightly.

Li Zhimeng also looked up and sighed at the cicada.

After working for most of the day, she didn't catch a single cicada.

Very annoying.

"What's wrong? You all look so sad?"

Wang Ge walked over and asked curiously.

"They wanted to catch a cicada, but they couldn't."

Chen Yanxi explained.

"Catch a cicada? Isn't that easy?" Wang Ge sneered.

Hearing this guy's arrogant words, Gu Panyan and Li Zhimeng both turned their eyes to him, "What do you think, Master Wang?"

Wang Ge looked at Gu Panyan and waved his hand: "Yan Bao, stop hiding, show them your skills."

Gu Panyan:?

She didn't react a bit.

What to hide? What to show?

Li Zhimeng seemed to have thought of something, her eyes lit up: "Yes, Sister Yan, don't you know martial arts?"

She stretched out her little hand and gestured between the two big trees: "You can just use Qinggong, so that you can fly up and catch the cicada, right?"

Wang Ge nodded in agreement: "That's right, Yan Bao, let them see the true strength of you, a martial arts master!"

Gu Panyan turned around and looked at Wang Ge and Li Zhimeng with a look of looking at a fool.

Under Gu Panyan's gaze, the two shrank their necks, shut their mouths honestly, and stopped talking.

Chen Yanxi probably couldn't bear it anymore, so he slowly said, "I think, instead of letting Gu Panyan fly up, it's better to use props."

Li Zhimeng was puzzled: "Props? What props?"

Chen Yanxi reminded: "I remember that the supermarket next to the hotel sells double-sided tape."

Gu Panyan was thoughtful, and Li Zhimeng hadn't reacted yet, so she asked blankly: "Then what?"

"Stupid."

Wang Ge knocked on her head, "Stick the double-sided tape on the long branches, and you can stick the cicada down from the tree."

"Oh oh oh!"

Li Zhimeng suddenly realized and gave Chen Yanxi a thumbs up, "You are worthy of being Yanyanzi! So smart!"

Chen Yanxi pursed his lips and didn't respond.

To be honest, this method is not very smart, it's just that Gu Panyan and Li Zhimeng were too lazy to use their brains and didn't think of it for a while.

Gu Panyan also looked at Chen Yanxi, frowned and asked: "Since you have a way, why didn't you tell us earlier, causing us to waste so much time."

Chen Yanxi thought for a while: "It's not a waste of time, it's quite interesting."

After a pause, she added calmly: "And you didn't ask me before."

Gu Panyan: "..."

She silently clenched her fists.

It's fun to watch us do stupid things, right?

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Li Zhimeng hurriedly pulled Gu Panyan away: "Let's go, Sister Yan, go buy double-sided tape, this time we have to catch ten."

Wang Ge came to Chen Yanxi and said with a smile: "Actually, I wanted to say that we can come here at night to catch cicada larvae. They will molt and become cicadas tomorrow. I didn't expect that you actually have a better way."

"Huh?"

Chen Yanxi thought for a while, "It seems that your method is simpler and more interesting."

"You are too modest, Xixi." Wang Ge said.

"This is the fact." Chen Yanxi emphasized.

"Okay, okay."

Wang Ge smiled and glanced at the two figures in front of him. "They are all far away. Let's go too."

"Yeah."

Chen Yanxi nodded and walked forward, asking in confusion, "How can you, who grew up in a wealthy family, know so much about this kind of rural knowledge?"

Of course it's because I often did this kind of thing in the countryside in my previous life... Wang Ge said calmly, "I saw it in a novel."

"What novel?"

"I forgot, it seems to be called something, starting with the pursuit of a genius beauty."

"...How can there be a novel with such a name."

"No? Then I'll go back and write one."

(I feel that using these few lines of dialogue as the ending of this book is quite good)

...

The method provided by Chen Yanxi really works.

After a while, Gu Panyan and Li Zhimeng caught four with double-sided tape.

Gu Panyan stopped after catching only one, and the remaining three were caught by Li Zhimeng who was very excited.

She enthusiastically gave one to Wang Ge and Chen Yanxi each.

Wang Ge happily took it, but Chen Yanxi shook his head and said, "I don't want it."

"Then you take it and let it go, and accumulate some merit."

Li Zhimeng blinked her big eyes, "Anyway, I will let it go after playing with it for a while."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Ge next to her raised the cicada in his hand to the sky: "Run quickly, be careful next time, don't let the bad woman catch you again."

"Hehe, give up, it can't hear."

Li Zhimeng said proudly, "I remember it said in the Insect Book that cicadas have no hearing and are deaf."

"You still read the Insect Book?"

Wang Ge was a little surprised.

"Hehe, don't underestimate me."

Li Zhimeng raised her chin.

Just when Wang Ge thought that Li Zhimeng was also a well-read man, he heard the girl add: "I saw it in a Chinese textbook, but I forgot whether it was a primary school textbook or a junior high school textbook..."

Wang Ge: "..."

"In fact, Fabre's research is wrong."

Chen Yanxi said, "Cicadas have hearing, but they do not rely on their ears, but rely on external sounds to vibrate the eardrum organ for auditory positioning..."

What was left was a lot of unintelligible nouns, such as 9000 Hz, so many decibels, from which range to which range. Li Zhimeng had a headache after hearing this.

Knowledge flowed from her left ear into her brain like water.

Then it flowed all the way out from the right ear.

"Okay, Chen Yanxi's knowledge class has started again."

Wang Ge laughed.

Gu Panyan asked in confusion: "How do you know so much?"

Chen Yanxi glanced at her and wrote lightly: "Read more."

Gu Panyan: "..."

Just as she was about to say something, the cicada she caught in her hand began to chirp.

"It's so noisy."

Gu Panyan frowned.

He threw it to the tree aside.

"Those who can scream seem to be male cicadas, right?"

Wang Ge looked at Chen Yanxi with questioning eyes.

"Um."

Chen Yanxi glanced at the cicada that Gu Panyan placed on the tree but did not fly away, and said softly, "Generally speaking, cicada larvae hibernate underground for more than ten years, and they crawl out of the ground after molting several times. Once they reach the tree, they molt and emerge again, and their life span is even shorter than that of male cicadas, because as soon as they finish mating, they will quickly grow old and die."

"They are noisy, but they can't be noisy for much longer."
