Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Great Bow of the Worm Armor
In the past three days, Hong Yi's appetite has been so large that Hu Qingliang was dumbfounded.
The more than 20 catties of food in the backpack were not even enough for Hong Yi to stuff his teeth, and it was not enough to last for half a day before it was wiped out.
Seeing that the backpack was empty, Hu Qingliang thought that Hong Yi would soon go to the streets to collect things that could satisfy his stomach, and by the way, save beautiful women, fight robbers or something.
But Hong Yi didn't go out and wander around.
His range of activity was fixed on the river, and he didn't want to go far, as if he wanted to wait for the buds to bloom, and he didn't want to miss the birth of the most wonderful lifeforms.
Of course, it was too simple for Hong Yi to fill his stomach.
"Uncle, the eggs of these centipedes don't look like caviar, they are full and fresh, they look very delicious, mixed with sugar, they have a lot of flavor, can you taste them?"
"Taste a fart! You've poisoned all the rats you've caught! Don't think I don't know! ”
"Huh? Aren't you stupid, uncle...... But you can eat rat meat, I'll roast it for you, I've heard that rat meat is better than chicken. ”
"I don't eat and that kind of thing!"
"Hey...... I've had a big appetite lately, and I'm going to pull a few lumps after eating, uncle, you're blessed. ”
"Gash vomit, I'd rather eat dead rats than!"
Hong Yi was just squeezing Hu Qingliang, and he was not embarrassed enough to eat rat meat to satisfy his hunger.
What is the best thing about living by the river?
River fresh, of course, is river fresh.
Although there are a large number of blood nematodes floating in the river, as well as some larvae such as frost tadpoles and gourd stalks, it is amazing that they are at peace with the aquatic aborigines of the river.
Those fish, shrimp, eels, water snakes, etc., are all alive and well in the river, and they seem to be more violent.
This made Hong Yi feel extremely puzzled.
With so many indigenous river freshmen in the water and so many strange insects, wouldn't it be possible to run out of oxygen, causing both camps to be hypoxic and floating on the river?
Or do the weird aquatic bugs consume nitrogen instead of oxygen at all?
However, nitrogen is an inert gas, and it is impossible to bring energy to the metabolism of living beings......
Even more puzzling, giant bugs attack humans and lay eggs on human corpses, but why don't they attack the indigenous river fresh? Is it because they dislike the lack of meat from the indigenous river fresh?
Hong Yi suppressed all kinds of doubts, ran to the river, and used his four tentacles to burrow into the water to catch fish.
Not to mention......
Its nimble, swift snake-like tentacles are a fish killer, but if any fish comes within two meters, it can't escape Hong Yi's palm.
And Hong Yi only needs to throw the internal organs and residues of the strange insects to the river, and he can attract a large area of river fresh to come and grab food.
There are not too many carp, grass carp, big-headed fish, black fish, and bone fish, and from time to time there are some grass turtles, river crabs, water swimming snakes, and yellow eels that will also smell the smell of insect blood, all of which are all caught by Hong Yi, not to mention how bumper the harvest is.
Hu Qingliang looked stupid, because Hong Yi went to the river three times in the morning, noon and evening to stop for a short while, and each time he could catch a large bucket of river fresh.
This made Hu Qingliang unconvinced, and compared his thumb again and again, muttering with a cheap face:
"The young man's tentacles are really useful, not to mention being able to kill insects lightly, and he can climb walls like a spider, and now he can even catch fish so slippery, I really want a few tentacles to show my exaggeration, and the beautiful aunts must say that I am top-quack."
Envy can't come from envy, Hu Qingliang can only eat lemons, and he has been sour.
But then again......
Every time Hong Yi caught Hexian, he gave it to Hu Qingliang to roast (using the brain nuclei of the insects as charcoal), and he himself raced against time, persecuting the insects he caught one by one in the container renovation room, giving them a hellish experience that was worse than death.
Hu Qingliang is not useless.
At least his barbecue skills are still good.
According to him, he just started his business when he was young, and he set up a barbecue stall on the street, and his mouth was also bragged about accompanying customers during the barbecue.
It just so happened that when Hu Qingliang left home, his backpack was also stuffed with all kinds of spices, even mustard powder, not to mention cumin powder, five-spice powder, pepper and the like.
So every time, Hu Qingliang's grilled fish can be grilled just right, the meat is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled with a little seasoning, the taste is really good.
Hong Yi calculated that the food he had to consume every day might be as much as forty or fifty catties, almost one-third of his body weight, and God knows how much energy those four tentacles would consume to maintain.
Don't look at Hong Yi's eating too much, three hours a day are wasted on chewing food, in fact, it doesn't affect his research work at all.
He has four tentacles.
Two tentacles are responsible for using chopsticks to pick up the fish, while the other two tentacles continue to "benefit" a nest of ill-fated bugs, and both sides work at the same time.
As for the problem of fish bones......
It doesn't seem to be a problem, Hong Yi's teeth, stomach and a whole set of digestive organs seem to have been mysteriously bonus, full of toughness, not afraid of thin fish bones stuck in the throat, just need to swallow the jujube to swallow the stomach, the stomach acid that is far more than three or five times that of ordinary people will also quickly digest the fish.
Even, Hong Yi can even bite the backbone of the fish into slag and swallow it into his stomach to digest.
After three days of eating and drinking, Hong Yi's physique seems to be stronger, he has always been a bit nerd, he may not be worse than a well-trained sports school student, maybe his physical strength is much stronger than that of a physical student.
The palms of both hands have also healed, and the holes worn by the pair have already scarred, and they may be restored to their original state in two days.
This kind of rapid recovery power made Hong Yi amazed, and he had to sigh that he could already be called a demon and a monster by fusing the genes of the Zerg.
Hu Qingliang finally couldn't help but shout: "Hey, young man, all our seasonings have been used up, and even the salt is gone, you have to take me out to scavenge for good things all over the streets today, otherwise, you will eat the light fish and eat until you die!" ”
Hong Yi said calmly: "Shhh, uncle, don't make noise first...... You come here, I want you to feed the gourd with a little blood, through the test, so many insects have drunk human blood and there is no special change, but the gourd is much more violent...... It is conceivable that once it becomes an adult mosquito, its compatriots in the city will be threatened by vampires......"
Hu Qingliang's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "What? Do you want me to cut my wrists and bleed? It's the fourth time, I'm going to die! ”
Hong Yi said slowly: "Hey, just lose weight, you don't accompany you at sunset, who are you when you come back from the east mountain, if I completely understand the mystery of insects, maybe I may really be able to contribute the greatest strength to the eradication of insects, and the history of mankind will be written by me...... And you are my good assistant, and the history of Khan Qingyan will definitely leave your name. ”
Hu Qingliang heard the truth and was deeply moved: "It makes sense, my blood is boiling when I hear it...... Oh oh, this blood is nothing, just take it. ”
After using Yunnan Baiyao to stop Hu Qingliang's bleeding, Hong Yi finally planned to leave for the downtown area to collect supplies.
The first thing to bring was three insect arrows - two large bows and one small bow.
It's a super killer.
Their bowstring is made of red tendons of blood nematodes, which is elastic and tough, and is not inferior to modern bowstrings.
And don't forget......
Hong Yi's tentacles have nearly three times the arm strength of an adult man.
His four tentacles can hold two insect bows at the same time, and with super high arm strength and special bowstrings, the arrows he shoots have a huge range.
These two large bows for tentacles are much more powerful than the ancient hundred-stone bows, and their power is not even inferior to bullets.
