Chapter Forty-Six: The Worm in the Pearl

Fan Baoheng took the hammer, put the pearl on the wooden table, and then aimed at it and smashed it with a bang. This time it was impartial, and it just hit the pearl. The pearl was then smashed to pieces, but a yellow-green sap came out of the pearl. We hurriedly went to check, only to see that the juice had come out of the corpse of a small bug in the pearl.

The corpse had already been smashed into a thin skin, and when he opened it with a knife, he saw that there were fine black spots on the insect skin. I suddenly remembered the silkworm I saw in the prefect's tomb, which is too similar. But how can there be such a thing in a pearl?

Wan Bao looked at it and was also puzzled. Everyone thought about it for a while, but no one could explain it.

Feng Laonong said: "This is not a fucking pearl, it is estimated that it has something to do with the Silkworm King." "

Liu Chunfeng said: "Pearls grow in rivers or seas, how can there be such insects in the water." And the formation of pearls is slowly grown by the continuous secretion of nacre by pearl mussels, and even if this little insect is a parasite wrapped in pearls, it should have dried up a long time ago. Even if it couldn't be done at that time, then this pearl should have been fished out and put in the coffin for so many years, and it should have turned into a skin, why did it still look like it was only alive? "

Feng Laonong said: "This thing can't be explained, I suspect that this insect is alive." With that, he picked up a pearl from his desk and asked me for a dagger. After I handed the dagger, Feng Laonong picked it up and carefully engraved the pearl. Apparently, the old boy wanted to see if there were any bugs in this pearl.

After carving for a while, a black spot emerged from the pearl, and after a few more carvings, half of the insect's body was revealed. When Feng Laonong was about to cut again, the insect suddenly writhed. Feng Lao Nong was so frightened that he didn't hold it properly, and the pearl fell to the ground and rolled to the side.

We got up to look for the pearl, only to see that the pearl had burst into several petals, and the worm was writhing on the ground. The bugs are small, only the size of a grain of rice, and have white bodies with black spots. As we were looking, the bug suddenly grew bigger, and when we hurriedly dodged away, it was as long as a cigarette and had a body as thick as a thumb.

Feng Laonong shouted and dodged away, and then hurriedly went to the table to get a machete. We hurriedly stepped back and waited for Old Farmer Feng to pick up the machete. The bug had grown more than a foot long, the thickness of an arm! It has a black head and a ring of fish bones-like teeth. The insect seemed to see Old Farmer Feng and twisted its body and threw itself at Old Farmer Feng.

The insect writhed quickly, and soon crawled to the feet of Old Farmer Feng. Old Farmer Feng hurriedly dodged, then leaned over and slashed at it with a knife. By the time the knife landed on the bug, it was already more than two feet long! And Feng Laonong's knife went down, but it was like cutting the ball with a blunt knife. The part of the insect's body that was stabbed was only slightly flattened, and it was not cut off by the knife.

Feng Laonong hurriedly threw away the machete and grabbed it on the table. At this time, the insect had already raised its head and bit at Old Farmer Feng. Feng Lao Nong didn't care about holding the dagger, and his body retreated sharply. However, there was a counter behind the jade, and only a clang was heard, and Feng Laonong was blocked by the counter.

At this time, Wu Feifei was holding a dagger in his hand and rushed over with an arrow. He stuck the dagger on the bug's body. The insect turned around violently to bite Wu Feifei, and Wu Feifei pulled out the dagger and flashed to a meter away. The insect ate the dagger, and then couldn't bite Wu Feifei, so it writhed violently beside the table. Fat body, flowing yellow-green juice. I look at it, it's a copy of the silkworm king in the prefect's tomb! But fortunately, this thing ate a dagger, and it must have no way to live. The silkworm king was so huge that after being stabbed with a dagger, he died soon after.

After struggling a few times, the bug didn't move. When we checked, we saw that the ground, the insects, and the table were covered with yellow-green juice.

Huang Xu looked at those things and couldn't help but retch. Fan Baoheng picked it with a knife and put the insects into a fertilizer bag. Then Cao Xu brought a mop to wipe the juice clean, and we all sat back down.
