Chapter 580: The Habits of the Pupa
Hearing Qin Yue say this, I felt as if she knew the situation here very well, so I asked her if she had been here a long time ago.
Qin Yue shook her head and told me that she knew that she had found it this month, and anyway, it was still three or four hours before six o'clock in the evening. We still had time to think about where to stay, so we got together and listened to her talk about the specific situation that she and Shangguan Qin had found out in the past month.
Seeing that we had no intention of leaving for the time being, Qin Yue also told us from the beginning.
She and Shangguan Qin arrived at this Red Moon Village on the fourteenth of last month, and after arriving here. They also discovered the mystery of the wall, so she jumped in with Shangguanqin.
After entering Hongyue Village, they went door-to-door to investigate, and found bowls and jars containing Gu worm eggs in many people's homes, and when they opened them, they found that some of the eggs had begun to hatch.
Some early-hatching pupae begin to eat the unhatched eggs next to them, and grow at a visible rate, biting each other if two pupae of about the same size come together, until one of them bites the other and eats it.
However, this devouring is not endless, when they grow to almost a meter long, they stop devouring, but go around looking for the pupa of the opposite sex to mate and then lay eggs.
And all this must be done before the sun rises in the morning of sixteen, because these pupa only have a one-day lifespan.
They rotate once a month, and only one of these pupae is exempt from the monthly cycle. That's the Chrysalis King, and the way they spawn is also very special. Tree-like web address: ёǐ.guankan mouth heart chapter
Pupa kings are all females, and those who lay more than a certain number of eggs will automatically be promoted to king, and once they become kings. Their lifespan will be greatly enhanced, but they will also fall asleep after sixteen.
Hearing Qin Yue say this, I couldn't help but say: "In this way, those so-called Pupa Kings can wake up a few days early in the next month, and after they wake up, they will have more opportunities to devour other pupal eggs." No, don't they stop devouring eggs when they reach a certain length? What is their purpose in waking up? ”
Qin Yue said: "The social group of the pupa is very special, and I don't know much about the purpose of the pupa king waking up early, but according to my preliminary estimate, they are to protect the smooth hatching of other eggs, and they should be a kind of warning." ”
Speaking of this, Qin Yue paused and said: "The pupa is usually followed by a few powerful pupa, they are all male pupa that have mated with the pupa king, they will sleep in different places, if someone enters this village, or a few days before the pupa eggs are about to hatch, they will wake up." ”
Speaking of this, Qin Yue stopped, I asked if it was all this information, Qin Yue said: "This should be the only thing that can be determined, but there is another situation, we didn't see it with our own eyes when we came last month." ”
I asked what the situation was, and Qin Yue said, "That is, if there are several pupa kings at once, it will be after the mating is over." The Chrysalis King will start a new round of biting and devouring until the last one remains. ”
It seems that the competition between these pupa is still very fierce.
Then Qin Yue said: "This pupa grows fast, so it needs a lot of nutrients, as long as they see something to eat, they will never let go, sometimes some grass, trees are their food, so this deserted village has been so old, the streets are still so clean, as if it has just been deserted." ”
"They even eat grass and trees, not to mention nutrient-rich humans!"
I couldn't help but smile wryly when I heard this.
Then I asked Qin Yue how she and Shangguan Qin were tricked, and she said it so that we could take precautions.
Qin Yue said: "We entered this village last month, and we only walked around the periphery of the village and observed the situation of some Gu worms, so there was nothing wrong, even if there were pupae chasing after us, we immediately jumped out of the wall, and there was nothing wrong at all." ”
"But this month, a few days ago, we entered the village again, and then we entered a house, and something happened!"
"The situation that day is like this, Shangguan Qin and I entered this village, and we also saw some resurrected pupae, but when they attacked us, they were all defeated by my natal Gu."
"Until we were in the middle of the village, we heard a woman's cry from a house, and we thought that someone had strayed into the village and was trapped here, so we hurried in to check the situation, but when we went in, we found that the house was empty, except for a mural in the middle of the room that was out of place with the whole room."
"On the mural is a ......"
When Qin Yue said this, I interrupted her and said, "We've seen the mural, it's a dancing woman, right?" Go on! ”
Qin Yue was stunned for a moment, but quickly nodded and continued: "We looked at the mural, and saw a lot of bowls and jars, I was attracted by the mural at the time, and I didn't pay attention to Xiaoqin and went to open a jar, but a pupa bit her finger, and then turned into a thin thread and drilled into her body. ”
"I was a little dazed, and I wanted to save Xiaoqin, but she was more panicked than me, and accidentally kicked over several other jars, and then drilled out a few pupae and flew towards Xiaoqin, I hurriedly used my magic power to kill the later pupae, but when I was cleaning up these pupae, the pupa king who hid in the shadows attacked me and drilled into my body from my back."
"If it weren't for the fact that my natal Gu was the Gu King, I could have suppressed it all the time, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago."
"And the pupa in Xiaoqin's body is also very smart, knowing that after it kills Xiaoqin, I will also kill it, so it has been waiting for an opportunity, such as that pupa king eats me first, or wait for all the pupa to be resurrected on the fifteenth day, and then kill us together."
"After that, I killed the other pupa in that room, but I have never been able to pull out the Gu worms for Xiaoqin, she has been using the pupae of various broken houses to stop me, and in the past two days, I have killed hundreds of male pupae!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh: "How powerful is the Pupa King, he can mate with hundreds of male Pupa in one day?" ”
Qin Yue said: "This is the characteristic of the pupa of the pupae. ”
Then I asked Qin Yue if there was any other information for the investigation, such as who the woman singing in this village was, and the situation of the moon in the sky.
Hearing me say this, Qin Yue shook her head and said: "There is no information for the time being, Xiaoqin said that he would not leave here this month, just to check here, we have not made any progress, so what we can find is some habits of the pupa of the pupae, and there will be no more." ”
Shangguan Qin refused to leave, the reason was very simple, she came to kill Qin Yue, not to complete the case.
I nodded and didn't go any further.
Xu Ruohui took a deep breath at this time and said to me: "On the first day of junior high school, the Blood Mother Gu in my body seems to be about to dissolve the toxicity of the pupa purity, and it seems that it will be more than an hour before I will be promoted to the second-grade Gu King."
I asked her how long it would take, and she thought for a moment and said, "If you start upgrading, it will take at least three hours!" ”
In three hours, if we stay in this Red Moon Village, the chrysalis will be resurrected at that time.
Thinking of this, my head was a little big, and Qin Yue said next to me: "First year of junior high school, if you don't worry about me, send Ruohui outside the wall first, and then you protect it, and the others stay to protect me, anyway, I can't keep her in this village to upgrade, it's too dangerous." ”
This is indeed a way, so I was going to go out with Xu Ruohui first, but before we could get close to the Gu wall, a large number of Gu worms flew towards us, and we turned around and ran back in fright.
Xu Ruohui smiled bitterly and said: "First year of junior high school, it seems that now I have no chance to go out, I also have the smell of pupa on my body, and it will also trigger the Gu wall, first year of junior high school, or you take others to ...... first."
I waved my hand and said, "Don't say it, we people are advancing and retreating together, and we have never thrown anyone away, isn't it just some pupae, I don't believe they can really eat me." ”
As soon as I said this, Xiaoliangqu Kangkang suddenly said: "It's going to eat you, so I'll eat them all." ”
I was curious: "You can't eat that thing indiscriminately, be careful of eating it." ”
Kangkang let out an "oh", but from the look on his face, he still seemed to want to eat.
Also with the same expression as it is An An.
After all, the pupa is a Gu worm from the underworld, and the yin qi on its body is very heavy, and those two little guys like yin qi as food.
Time passed minute by minute, and the Gu worms in Xu Ruohui's body were about to start to give birth, so we chose a place that was far away from the Gu wall and the village, that is, the location of the ravine in the northwest.
If we are too close to the Gu Wall, in case the pupa attracts the Gu worms of the Gu Wall, then we will have to suffer from the enemy on our backs, after all, there is still a strong smell of pupa on the bodies of Xu Ruohui, Qin Yue and Shangguan Qin.
After arriving here, Xu Ruohui sat down cross-legged, and then began to breathe quietly, while I took out the bamboo tube from my backpack, ready to use the snow butterfly to restrain Xu Ruohui's rampage.
Seeing this, I was nervous, and Qin Yue said to me: "First year of junior high school, you don't have to be nervous, Ruohui may be able to get through it, and you won't need snow butterflies at all." ”
I nodded, and then gave a heavy "um".
It was getting late, and a light red moon gradually appeared in the sky.
When the moon appeared, it quickly began to turn from light red to deep red, and the whole earth was reflected in blood red.
At the same time, the song of the woman who had disappeared last night began again, still coming from the bottom of the dry pond.
The lyrics are still the ones we've heard.
Red Moon, we have seen it, I believe that the truth of this village is getting closer and closer to us, but then again, Qin Yue and Shangguanqin have already experienced a chrysalis change in this village in advance, and they still haven't found anything, can we really do it this time?
When I was thinking like this, Qin Yue said: "Last time, when the chrysalis attacked, Xiaoqin and I fled to the outside of the wall, this time we are inside, I believe we can see a lot of things that Xiaoqin and I have not seen, and of course we have experienced a lot of dangers that we have not experienced last month." ”
When the red moon comes, will the woman's face in the moon also appear?
