Chapter 170: Female Eggs
With each step, the corners of Wu Yun's mouth twitched, and his legs had almost recovered, but the girl's blow caused the injury to worsen. The pain between his legs became more and more intense as he took steps down the mountain, and after more than half an hour, Wu Yun finally came to the bottom of the mountain, his legs were extremely sore, and he could barely take a step. I had to find a nearby tree and sit down.
How, exactly? Knowing that he should have taken one more pill from the girl's medicine jar, Wu Yun was weak all over, and leaned against the tall tree trunk behind him like a puddle of mud. He clearly felt the revolver at his waist. It's a pity that there is only one bullet...... It is very unrealistic to protect yourself or hunt.
The hungry Wu Yun reached out and touched his body, he didn't bring any food, only the sprinkler head and other things were still in his pocket.
After resting for a while, and finding a place with water after his legs were better, Wu Yun looked at the smooth and round ant eggs beside him. I can't help but move my index finger. He was going to bring it back for everyone to see. But now it seems that it is important to fill your stomach first.
There was a sudden sound of rustling behind him, Wu Yun turned his head suddenly, and a black slingshot and a few steel balls immediately appeared in his hand.
Hoping that it wasn't coming at him, Wu Yun cautiously climbed into a bush under the tree. It is impossible to escape now. The only option left is to dodge.
"Isn't it a little too dangerous to go back now?" An unfamiliar and loud voice came from a distance, Wu Yunyi frowned, and climbed his body lower.
"The queen ant has withdrawn, and the anthill must have been abandoned. A girl's voice replied.
"What the hell are we looking for?" There was a hint of hesitation in the boy's tone.
"I've only seen that thing in a book, and I'm too unsure if it's ......," the girl listened a little panting, and her words paused slightly, "but we have to go and see it, and if we get something, we don't have to worry about going back." ”
It seems that this girl knows a lot about termites. What is that thing? Wu Yun thought secretly, he had already faintly seen the figures of the two. Sure enough, these two guys who were sent away by termites, and they ran back to find something? He thought about it and monitored it, not to mention that the jungle movement of the two people was compared to Kashan's, even in the eyes of a half-person, it was full of copper leaks. Definitely two fledgling guys. Isn't it looking for death to break through like this?
Thinking of this, he put away his weapon. With his hands on the ground, he stood up from the half-human-tall bushes.
The boy and girl not far away were taken aback, and the two immediately stopped.
"You're not dead?" The girl frowned, her face was as smooth as new at this moment, and the original dirty shape was swept away. Wu Yun had heard the other party's voice in advance, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to tell that this was the dirty tomboy at the entrance of the cave just by looking at the outside.
"You'd better not go up." Wu Yun stopped, "There must be a reason for termites to flee in such a hurry." ”
"You came down from above?" The girl asked, and Wu Yun nodded.
She looked at the remains of the queen's nest on the mountainside behind Wu Yun, and her face gradually became serious. The boy didn't pay much attention to him, he just stood in front of the girl, watching around vigilantly.
"Why should I believe you?" The girl asked unceremoniously.
Wu Yun was speechless for a while, and he couldn't think of how to answer at all. Now that he had been informed of the danger, it was helpless for the other party not to listen, so he walked a few steps to the bottom of the tree, bent down to pick up the ant eggs, and walked slowly down the hillside.
After all, this is just his own speculation, too many obstacles will make others wary, he is not the kind of person who is boring to himself.
"You found this from above?" The girl saw the silver cannonball-like ant eggs at a glance, and rushed over with a cry of surprise.
She gently stroked the hard shell of the eggs with her hands. Curious, she turned her head to look at him. Wu Yun nodded and walked past her. The girl, who was completely ignored by him, didn't think it was angry at all, and chased after it without hesitation. The boy followed behind with a bewildered expression.
"Where are you going?" The girl who caught up behind her suddenly spoke, and couldn't help but startle Wu Yun.
"I'm going to find water." Wu Yun noticed the two people following behind him, and immediately stopped and turned around.
"Do you know where it is?" Wu Yun asked the girl, looking at the appearance of the two of them, it was obvious that they had been cleaned somewhere, rather than looking for them themselves, it was better to ask them to come quickly.
What's more, he felt as if the girl had something to ask for him, and he also wanted to see if his guess was correct.
"I know, it's over there~" The girl's attentive look convinced him of his opinion.
What the hell is she trying to do? Wu Yun thinks that even if he is clean, a little beauty like the other party may not be so favored, not to mention that he is now looking like a black and swarthy flower. Treating himself like this obviously came with a plan, Wu Yun's mind turned and he thought about it.
"Thank you." Wu Yun said very easily, "When I find a water source, I will invite you to eat roasted ant eggs." As he spoke, his hands shook, and the cannonball-like ant eggs suddenly turned upside down.
The girl was shocked, and immediately stretched out her hand to connect it under Wu Yun's hands.
"Are you sick?" After the girl realized that it was just a false alarm, she immediately returned to the way she had been at the top of the mountain.
"Do you have medicine?" Wu Yun wanted to reply to such a sentence, but when he saw that the girl looked like she was eager to rush over and beat herself, the pain between her legs immediately forced her to swallow her words back.
And so it was. He looked at the ant eggs in his arms and smiled, and the girl realized her gaffe at this moment, and she glared at him angrily, without saying a word.
"What's the use of these eggs?" The girl turned her face sideways, not looking at him.
"If it's useless, I'll bake it, Wu Yun had to speak again.
Wu Yun felt that he was a bit despicable at the moment, and the person who could say this dialogue was usually not a positive character.
But I'm just curious, I want to know more about the truth, but looking at the other party's appearance, I guess I can only take this not very bright means.
As expected, the girl looked at him with disdain, and the young man behind him was also angry, and Wu Yun deliberately took a few steps back. Keep a relatively safe distance.
"Aren't you a hunter?" The girl's tone seemed steady, but there was still a hint of anger. Her pretty white face trembled slightly, apparently suppressing her anger. "You don't even know this?"
"I'm still taking the hunter qualification, and I'm not a hunter at all." Wu Yun replied in frustration, only then did he remember that his card was still in the center of the machine.
I guess I got a tattoo in the explosion. I don't know where to go to reissue it. Is your data points still there?
Seeing that Wu Yun didn't speak for a long time, the girl was a little embarrassed, but she wouldn't say anything to apologize to this person who didn't have a good feeling.
"This is a female egg." The girl's words called Wu Yun back from her thoughts. "You came out of the queen's nest, you must have seen a lot of large ant eggs, right?"
Wu Yun nodded hurriedly, there are still many more on it now, if this egg is also as big as them, he will definitely not consider bringing it down.
"Those are male eggs, and when they hatch, they are those guys in the sky." The girl pointed to the colony of termites flying in the sky. At this point they have turned into tiny white dots. It's hard to tell with the naked eye alone.
"What about this?" Wu Yun looked at the silver ant eggs in his arms. "Is that the big meat dumpling that she hatched?"
"It's not like you don't know anything, do you?" The girl glanced at him, "Yes, but when it is relatively safe, the queen ant releases a hormone on the female eggs that are discharged, preventing it from developing properly. So this egg may not necessarily hatch.
"Oh, I see." Wu Yun was a little admired. This girl is not simple, this kind of knowledge is estimated to be fruitless, "So what is the use of it?". ”
"Male termites have very low intelligence, and basically follow the queen's thoughts and actions. Queens are different, they are born with the intelligence of human babies, and if domesticated, they can easily become war pets. ”
War pets? What is that? Wu Yun didn't put his doubts into words. After all, the word isn't that hard to understand either.
