Chapter 21: The Body Determines the Soul

Feng Bei didn't get ahead of his plan, and soon, he had to stop.

There is no way, wearing this layer of leather clothing, the heat dissipation conditions of Feng Bei are very poor, an hour of running, accompanied by friction, the temperature inside the leather clothing has reached a critical point, and it is about to reach the point where Feng Bei is completely unbearable, for the sake of his own health, he must stop now.

Still found a bush to get into, Feng Bei stopped, carefully got out of the camouflage coat, spread it flat, spread it on the ground to cool down, and he himself untied his "backpack", took out ant meat from the net pocket to eat, and replenished his energy - an hour of long-distance running, for this mantis body, the burden is really too great.

In fact, it is impossible for a normal praying mantis to run such a long distance, and it must stop for about ten minutes, otherwise it will die of hyperthermia, endocrine disorders, and multiple organ failure. And the reason why Feng Bei was able to do it was thanks to the blessing of the Terran talent skill "Super Endurance" that he had drawn before.

At this time, it reflects Feng Bei's foresight, he no longer needs to look for the insects around him, let alone ambush and assassinate them, he only needs to eat prepared food. You must know that foraging itself is an extremely physically demanding and time-consuming thing, and many, many carnivores look majestic, but in fact they live a miserable life of looking for food for three and a half weeks and eating for three minutes.

After a long run, physical strength will inevitably decline, whether you can catch the prey is not easy to say, now you don't have to worry about this problem, you can completely relax and rest, just count this item, Feng Bei has saved at least five or six hours of time.

Of course, it is said to be completely relaxed, but for a praying mantis, in a wilderness environment, where is it really safe? Even in the state of eating, Feng Bei still maintains enough vigilance:

The big eyes of Meng Meng Da observe the six roads, the big ear holes under the crotch listen to the eight directions, the antennae on the forehead monitor the vibrations of the surrounding air, and the small feet on the long legs smell the smell nearby. Now that the camouflage is out of the way, it is re-exposed to the bird's field of vision, and there is the possibility of being attacked again!

However, fortunately, during the whole eating process of Feng Bei, the unfortunate thing that was attacked did not happen. Thanks to this, he was able to devote more energy to observing his surroundings in detail, and soon he smelled something very attractive...... Wrong, it's a very attractive smell of insects.

The smell was very faint at first, of course, it may also be because Feng Bei's nose is long on the feet, and the sense of smell is not very sensitive, but as soon as you notice it, you will feel that it smells better and better, more and more timeless, and there is a strange restlessness in the body, flooding all over the body, and even gradually drilling into the braincase!

As a Holy Light Ascetic, Feng Bei's willpower was very strong, and this restlessness had no effect on him, and it could not control his actions at all. But he knew that he was just a special case, and if it was an ordinary praying mantis standing here, he would have been taken over by this restlessness long ago, and he would have gone to find the source of the smell.

Feeling it quietly for a while, while quickly retrieving it in his mind, Feng Bei soon determined the essence of this restlessness-

Surname Impulse!

This very nice smell, most likely, is a pheromone emitted by another female praying mantis, which is used to attract potential mates that may be nearby!

Having determined this, Feng Bei's heart was determined, and he thought disdainfully:

Not to mention that the female praying mantis has a bad habit of eating male praying mantis when breeding, even if there is no this, as a human being, any female mantis scratching her head in front of him will not attract him at all!

However, there is one thing that still makes Feng Sadness quite strange, at this time it is in the spring when everything is recovering, the temperature is quite low, and it is not a hot season suitable for praying mantis to reproduce.

Out of curiosity, and now that it was time to rest, Feng Bei decided to run over to take a look, judging by the strength of the taste, the female mantis was not far from here, and it wouldn't take long to come and go - he swore it was just out of curiosity, and there was absolutely no itching factor in being seduced by the female mantis.

Put away his wings, bow his body, Feng Bei slowly crawled forward on the ground, stepping on the air and smelling the smell while walking, due to the interference of the wind, he took a little detour, and finally found a place, through the gap between the messy grass blades, he saw at a glance three meters away, on a small flower at a high place, a huge female mantis was lying on it, hitting her belly with her wings, constantly releasing pheromones with a strong smell!

Feng Bei's eyes straightened, and he couldn't help but gasp:

Hissโ€”โ€”!! Miss Mantis, why do I think she's pretty good-eyed?!

Look at its big, round eyes, look at its hideous and charming mouthparts, look at its unusually sharp double blades, look at its long, nostalgic legs, look at its enchanting belly...... In short, there is no beauty in the whole body, it is simply the most perfect dream in my mind...... Person!!!

The word "person" that flashed in his mind woke up Feng Bei, who was in a state of confusion, and looked around for a while, he found that he was in a state of confusion, and he had unconsciously walked within one meter of the female mantis!

This is terrible! If he could sweat, Feng Bei would already be covered in cold sweat! He was shocked to find that in the face of the hormones secreted in his body, the willpower that he was proud of was so weak and pitiful, if it weren't for some remaining human instincts, which made him have a strong sense of disobedience, he was afraid that he would have involuntarily pounced on it at this time, and began to talk to the female mantis!

The soul only has relative independence, and the body determines a large part of the soul attributes, and treating one's own body well, but not indulging, is very conducive to the healthy growth of the soul.

I couldn't help but think of this sentence that the cardinal had said to him, at that time, in order to increase the Holy Light, he was strict with himself according to the standards of ascetics, and even for a while, he lived more asceticly than ascetics, but was criticized by the cardinal, saying that he had gone astray.

Feng Bei has always been very proud of his will, he didn't listen to the cardinal's words, and felt that the other party was just relying on his old age to say some crooked reasoning. But the current situation made him shake up:

It's just a different body, where is your willpower? I can't even stand the seduction of a female praying mantis?

Inexplicably, a wave of anger welled up in Feng Bei's heart, staring at the female mantis who was still flapping her wings in place, and her eyes became blood-red:

It's all your fault, which made me fall into self-doubt!

It's all your fault, ruining my Holy Light Practice!

Give it to me, dieโ€”โ€”!!
