Chapter 39: The Characteristics of Ants

"The art of insect control sounds magical, but there are actually traces to follow, each insect has its own uniqueness, as long as you master the method, you can control them to some extent......"

Early in the morning, in the open space in the backyard of the pharmacy, Uncle Wei said slowly to me.

I'm very excited, being able to control bugs seems very cool to me, and Uncle Wei's rhubarb has always made me envious.

"Human beings have always believed that they are the masters of all things, but they don't know that the Zerg in this world is the oldest surviving, and the Zerg have existed since ancient times, and there was no one at that time......"

"Bugs are everywhere, you can see them, you can't see them, how many of them there are? Where are they? How do they survive? No one knows, we humans have always felt that we are the spirits of all things, in fact, we are just passers-by, a bunch of seas, and they will still ......be there when we are not there" Uncle Wei looked at me and talked eloquently.

Uncle Wei's eyes flashed, and when he talked about insects, Uncle Wei was like a different person.

"In fact, the so-called insect control statement is inaccurate, we are just acting according to the situation, the strength of the Zerg is not something we can comprehend, and our insect master is only the closest human being to the Zerg......"

Uncle Wei's words touched me a lot, in fact, there is nothing wrong, the largest number and the most diverse species on this planet are indeed insects, the secrets of insects we have not yet understood, the species of insects discovered by humans are only a small part, and there are many insects that we have not discovered or studied.

"Xiao An, remember my words, you have to be in awe of the Zerg, don't think that you can really control them, including all things in the universe, we must have a heart of awe, the vast universe, under the sky, where do I come from, where do I go......"

Uncle Wei looked at Bihu with his hands behind his back, his voice getting slower and slower, and his tone getting heavier and heavier.

I stood beside Uncle Wei, and suddenly felt quiet in my heart, Uncle Wei's words seemed to be very philosophical, difficult to understand, but as long as I think about it seriously, I will feel reasonable, human beings never know where they come from and where they are going, this is an eternal proposition, and it is also the answer that many people want to pursue in their ultimate life!

There are stone tables and stone benches in the backyard, just under the grapevine trellises, and Uncle Wei took me to sit on the stone benches after a little explanation.

We both looked down at the stone table, and there was an ant on the stone table, and its tentacles kept swinging, crawling around in a panic.

"Do you know what it's thinking?" Uncle Wei asked softly.

"Find your way. I replied.

"Not quite, ants are social in nature, they are the most obedient and the most disciplined, this ant is actually looking for a companion, we caught it here, it has lost its purpose, it doesn't know what to do. Uncle Wei smiled.

Uncle Wei pinched a thin and soft hair on his hand, which was a hair that Uncle Wei ripped from his head in front of me, Uncle Wei touched the ant's tentacles with his hair, touched it and immediately withdrew it, and then touched it again, and the ant suddenly quieted down after several times.

"I'm talking to it, and I'm telling it not to move, and it's going to work right away. Uncle Wei reached into his pocket and took out some bread crumbs and spilled them on the table, and then guided the ants to find the bread crumbs.

Uncle Wei took his hair and communicated with the ant again, and the ant bit a piece of bread crumbs several times larger than his body.

Under Uncle Wei's guidance, the ants bit the breadcrumbs and climbed down the stone table along the route guided by Uncle Wei.

"You observe here, don't disturb them, I'll go ahead and have a look. Uncle Wei stood up and patted me on the shoulder.

After Uncle Wei left, I quietly observed, and for about half an hour, a few ants suddenly appeared on the stone table, and they accurately found the bread crumbs along the route of the ants just now, and then more and more ants climbed onto the stone table.

The ants kept coming and going, constantly touching each other with their tentacles, and the line has not changed, it is the line that Uncle Wei guided before, that line is actually not the closest, Uncle Wei deliberately made a big bend in the desktop, but the ant colony is very faithful to implement the line, and not a single ant walks around.

I don't know where the ant was in the first place, but I know it must be in the colony!

When the breadcrumbs were about to run out, Uncle Wei came back.

"How is it?" asked Uncle Wei with a smile.

"Master, how do you communicate with ants?" I asked, surprised.

"Do you want to learn?" said Uncle Wei smiled.

"Yes!" I nodded excitedly.

In the afternoon, Uncle Wei taught me how to communicate with ants in the yard, and I realized that it was difficult as soon as I got started!

Uncle Wei kept pointing at me: "The antennae of ants are equivalent to our mouths, and you must first imagine yourself as an ant to communicate with ants...... You don't want to find the wrong person, you have to find someone to work, that is, worker ants...... The big males communicate differently...... I'll show you, you look at it carefully...... "Uncle Wei is very patient and teaches me little by little."

"Master, every nest of ants has a queen, can you control the queen?" I suddenly asked.

"In principle, it can, but it will be more difficult, the queen ant is the one who gives orders, what characteristics do you use to control it?" Uncle Wei explained.

I thought about it and nodded.

"Learn to walk first and then learn to run, don't be too greedy. Uncle Wei tapped his finger on my head.

"I'm just asking...... By the way, how did you refine rhubarb, so close to you. I asked again.

"Rhubarb is my natal worm, that's different. Uncle Wei replied.

"Natal worm?" I was puzzled.

"Every insect master hopes to have a natal worm, but this depends on chance, barely come, the natal worm is another kind of existence, take rhubarb as an example, it has been with me for almost ten years, and the natal worm and the insect master can share soul power. ”

"What is soul power?" I continued to ask, and Uncle Wei said more and more things that I didn't understand.

"How can I say it......" Uncle Wei pondered for a moment: "Soul power is a very mysterious thing, the homework we do every day is actually to exercise soul power, the stronger the soul power, the higher the level of insects that can be controlled......

Uncle Wei's words made me even more incomprehensible!

"Master, what level of your soul power is, what about mine?" I already equated my soul power with the internal power in martial arts novels.

"Smack!" Uncle Wei suddenly slapped my head heavily with his hand, followed the back of his hand, turned around and left: "You can comprehend it slowly!"

I touched my head, Uncle Wei seemed to be deliberately evasive, maybe he didn't know? I suddenly flashed such a thought, I denied the thought just together, it must be hiding secrets, Uncle Wei doesn't want me to learn too much!

In the afternoon, I was left alone in the yard to try to communicate with the ants, I lay on the stone table with a hair and kept communicating with an ant, but the ant was very faceless, and kept being disobedient and wanted to escape.

"Give me some face, tell me a few words, and tell a joke. I said in frustration.

"Anton. Then suddenly I heard a shout.
