Chapter 23: Borrowing Eggs
Huajiao announced that the anti-sperm cave was going to set up a few thorn insect tribe United Nations. After hearing this, the workers cheered, they have been lonely ghosts for too long, and now, they are finally going to return to society.
This important meeting has since been known as the first summit of the United Nations of the Sea Buckthorn Zerg.
For a while, the worker ants in the anti-sperm cave were busy, and they were all preparing for the ceremony of the Zerg United Nations with great interest. Xiao Ran thought about it, since it was the founding ceremony of the United Nations, it must be made unforgettable.
Soon, he had an idea.
The next day, Xiao Ran announced that the founding ceremony of the Sea Buckthorn Zerg United Nations would be held in three days.
On the first day, as the envoy of the Seabuckthorn United Nations, Hua Jiao sent an envoy to the Shi family to discuss the Ant Clan's desire to establish the Zerg United Nations with the Red Shovel Clan.
The Shi family was a little reluctant at first, but when the peppercorns brought out the six popcorns that Xiao Ran had prepared in advance, the Shi family agreed directly without thinking.
Shi Taro even said arrogantly that as long as it is Xiaoran's business, it is his own business.
Hua Jiao announced that the purpose of establishing the Zerg United Nations was to jointly guard against the enemy, not to interfere in their own lives and habits.
After confirming that the Shi brothers had no objection to this, the pepper returned to the anti-sperm cave.
Next, Xiao Ran asked the Shi brothers to help dig a pit with a length of 5 centimeters, a width and a height of 5 centimeters not far from the kerosene stove. Xiao Ran climbed around the hole, the quality of the work in the hole is very high, square, no deformation, no slag.
Xiao Ran instructed the worker ants to collect dead branches, hay, etc., and throw them into the pit together.
Although the worker ants are small, they are not ambiguous at all when they work, and with the help of Shi Jia Shidi, it took less than two days for dry grass and dry branches to fill most of the pit.
These days, because of the sentry post of Jiulixiang, every time the leg spirit comes to the land of death, there is no harvest, and gradually, the leg spirit rarely comes to the land of death.
On the third day, Xiao Ran looked at the pit full of dead branches, he led the twenty ants to the earthen stove in the kitchen of the old house, carefully took out a box of matches, and after taking out the matches, he closed the wrapping paper of the package of matches.
This match is especially precious to him, who has become an ant. With one, there is one less.
If it weren't for the ceremony, he would have preferred to wait with a magnifying glass for the whole noon fire to be lit than spend a match.
Next, it's time to wait.
In addition to the seriously injured worker ants, a total of 42 ants were dispatched in the anti-sperm cave. Xiao Ran ordered them to wait at the junction of the Artemisia Jungle and the Land of the Dead. Waiting with them are the four brothers of the Shi family.
"When are we waiting?" asked Peppercorn.
Xiao Ran looked at the sky, the sun was already hanging high, and said, "It's noon." ”
Time passed minute by minute, and all the workers and the four brothers of the Shi family were a little anxious, but Xiao Ran just didn't give an order, just asked everyone to wait in place.
The workers were confused, and they couldn't understand what Xiao Ran was doing.
Brother!
Brother pot brother!
Brother pot brother!
......
The roar of the leg spirit?
The worker ants were a little panicked, and the last time the leg essence was infested, they also roared, and then, more than 20 ants in the anti-sperm hole were buried in their abdomen......
"Don't panic, everyone, only by facing the enemy can we defeat the enemy, and only by fearless of the enemy can we avenge our dead compatriots!" Xiao Ran boosted the morale of the ants.
"Yes, after eating so many of our brothers, this revenge must be avenged. A worker ant said in whiskers.
"However, the legs are huge and powerful, and we compare them with them, if they are a chestnut in the sea, if they are in the dust of the wilderness, how can they match it!" another worker ant said in Wenyan.
......
The worker ants in the anti-sperm cave are still apprehensive about the last leg sperm eating incident. Xiao Ran hurriedly explained: "This time, we are not fighting the leg spirit head-on, we just need to borrow an egg. ”
"What ......"
"Leg Sperm ......"
"You can think of this idea......
"yes, so you don't have to risk your life. ”
......
When the workers heard that they were just borrowing their legs instead of fighting them head-on, their emotions instantly calmed down a lot.
Brother pot brother ......
Brother pot brother ......
Xiao Ran listened to the screams of the leg spirit, and he knew that the time had come. The rooster crows in the morning, while the hen sings after laying eggs. The nature of this chicken, Xiao Ran has never forgotten.
The chanting of the leg spirit stopped after two minutes.
Xiao Ran ordered the workers to move forward quickly.
As early as three days ago, Jiulixiang had already found out that the place where the leg essence was produced was in the firewood room. Ten meters to the left of the old house, there is the mouth of the mountain spring, and five or six meters further to the mouth of the mountain spring, there is the firewood house.
More than ten meters further on, it is the home of the third grandfather.
Xiao Ran knew before he became an ant that now there is only the third grandfather and his wife in this part of the yard. The rest of the people have already moved into the city.
This leg essence, that is, the old hen, if it is correct, can only be the old hen raised by the third grandfather.
This time the egg borrowing action is to transport the leg eggs back to the firewood pit before the third grandfather picks up the leg eggs.
After a while, the leg spirit left the firewood room after the elder brother pot brother. Xiao Ran saw the opportunity and led the workers and the Shi brothers to rush in together.
Jiulixiang is still in charge of the sentry work, and he leads six worker ants to monitor movements in all directions from high places.
Xiao Ran came to the leg essence socket, which was built in a pile of straw on the ground, although it was not luxurious, but it was also neat. As soon as the leg spirit left, the temperature of the leg sperm socket faded, and a small oval white egg jumped in front of him.
Xiao Ran probed the leg sperm with his front paws, and it was very hot and comfortable.
He remembered that when he was a child, the old man said that drinking freshly laid eggs was highly nutritious, and he drank them a few times at the instigation of his mother. This kind of local eggs don't smell strong, and when you drink it, the hot fresh eggs flow directly into your throat. It's not uncomfortable, but it's definitely not delicious.
When he grew up, he realized that the so-called drinking freshly laid eggs is nutritious, which is nonsense and has no basis. The hardships of my childhood were really in vain.
Multiply......
Multiply......
A sound of footsteps interrupted Xiao Ran's thoughts.
It's not good, it's the third grandfather who has come to pick up the leg sperm eggs!" Xiao Ran thought to himself.
He glanced around, saw a small hole under a bundle of firewood, and shouted, "Let's go, let's take action, hide the leg essence eggs under that bundle of firewood!"
The four brothers of the Shi family took the lead, they propped their hind legs on the eggs, and before the workers could step forward, they pushed the eggs up and quickly pushed them towards the hole under the firewood and grass.
Seeing this, Xiao Ran remembered the three red persimmons, but the difference this time was that before leaving, Xiao Ran specially instructed the Shi brothers to wash their feet three times with morning dew.
This time, eggs are guaranteed to have only the taste of eggs.
Zizi ......
The third grandfather stepped on the dry grass and walked into the firewood room.
"Quick! go a little deeper!" Xiao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the leg sperm that had been pushed under the firewood.
He hid under the firewood and looked out at the third grandfather. The third grandfather is already gray-haired, but it is clear that the third grandfather still has black hair when he moved away!
Is time really so fast?
After the third grandfather found that there were no eggs in the chicken nest, he carefully checked the leg sperm nest, and after confirming that there were indeed no leg sperm eggs, he muttered: "Strange, I obviously heard the chicken cry, why are there no eggs......
