"No, I'm not really sitting on the ground. According to my character, I wouldn't have gone inside such a dangerous place, you have to go in, so I have to do this.

Chen Ziyang's blood has a very strong temptation to Gu worms, and I estimate that those bone-eating insects should also be attracted to blood, so as long as we take out some of his blood and smear it on the rock wall, those bone-eating insects will definitely run away with blood, and we can run over while their attention is not on us. ”

Shangguan Kangning's method was agreed by several people, and what he said made some sense, but after Chen Ziyang thought about it for a while, he shook his head and said:

"Something is wrong. We've tried it several times before, as long as it's within three or five meters of me, those Gu worms will move, but just now I was very close to those rock walls, but there were no bone-eating insects coming out of those holes. Why?

It's not that I don't want this blood, I'm afraid that my blood will have no effect on the bone-eating insects, but will attract some other Gu worms, in which case we will be more dangerous. ”

After frowning, Shangguan Kangning said, "I think there may be three reasons. First, the caves of the bone-eating insects are very deep, built deep in the rock walls, and it is possible that this distance is beyond the temptation of your blood.

The second reason is unlikely. It's those bone-eating insects that have long since died because of their age.

However, the poacher's body had turned into white bones, and according to common sense, it would take three days for a person bitten by the black Gu worm to turn into blood, leaving only a pile of white bones.

There may be a small possibility, those black Gu worms are more poisonous than I imagined, it only took more than a day to turn the corpse into blood, it is this that caused my judgment to be wrong, it is also possible that the information I have about the black Gu worms is not accurate enough, but this possibility is really very small.

It's also possible that I misjudged that those black holes weren't a nest for bone-eating insects at all.

You're rightly suspicious, so I'll go and see if there are any bone-eating insects in the holes in the rock walls. ”

After listening to Shangguan Kangning's words, several people focused on Shangguan Kangning's body, and they all wanted to see if this kid had any way to go to such a dangerous place.

After rummaging through his backpack for a while, Shangguan Kangning took out a small piece of bamboo stick. This bamboo stick is about half a foot long, and it is very thin. There is also a plug stuffed at one end of the bamboo stick, and it is estimated that this bamboo stick is hollow, and there should be something inside.

In addition, there are several small holes on the side of this section of bamboo stick, which looks like a very thin bamboo flute.

After opening the stopper, Shangguan Kangning pressed the bamboo stick close to the ground and gently slapped it. As the bamboo stick trembled, something like an earthworm came out of the bamboo stick little by little.

This earthworm Gu insect is dark brown, and it looks very strange, on the surface it looks like a very long earthworm, the body surface is oily and shiny, and there are black horizontal lines, but it is much thinner than an earthworm.

The head of the Gu worm is a pitch-black dot, and the biggest difference from the earthworm is that it has legs. On both sides of this Gu worm's body, there are some thin and short feet, but these insect feet are so thin that they look like hair.

The earthworm Gu worm as a whole gives people the feeling that it is like a combination of a centipede and an earthworm, and I don't know if this Gu worm is a cross between a centipede and an earthworm.

Then, Shangguan Kangning took out another glass bottle and poured out something like black rat feces from it. After feeding this thing to this weird earthworm Gu worm to eat, Shangguan Kangning picked up the bamboo pole, put it to his mouth, and blew it gently.

"Woo woo...... "This is really a bamboo flute." With Shangguan Kangning's blowing, a whining sound came from the hole in the bamboo flute.

Hearing this sound, the earthworm Gu worm slowly raised its head, and after shaking in the air for a while, it lay on the ground again, and quickly climbed towards the gap in the mountain where everyone had escaped.

Don't look at this thing, it's very thin, and its body length is not very long, but it can get up very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the earthworm worm burrowed into the grass and disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

It seemed that this Gu worm had been trained for a long time, and just by relying on Shangguan Kangning's flute, it could know its master's intentions.

After playing the flute for a while, Shangguan Kangning put away the bamboo flute, and then said to everyone: "Let's go farther and go to a sunny place."

Osteivores are insects that prefer cold rock crevices, hate sunlight, and won't go to places where the temperature is high, even if there's tempting food.

I've asked the Gu worms to explore the holes in the rock walls, and it would be nice if there weren't any bone-eating insects in them, but if they were, they might alarm these things. It's safer for us to go farther. ”

Six people waited anxiously in the sun. Shangguan Kangning took out the bamboo flute and blew it for a while from time to time, and the others didn't know what he was talking about to that earthworm Gu worm.

As if he had been waiting for a long time, Shangguan Kangning suddenly showed a serious face, stood up suddenly, and said to everyone: "I'm back!" ”

The others also stood up one after another, nervously looking in the direction of the mountain gap, but they couldn't see anything.

After more than ten seconds, the earthworm Gu worm came out of a bush not far in front of everyone. This earthworm crawled very fast, much faster than when it had entered before. I don't know why, several people feel that this Gu worm seems to be running for their lives in a panic.

When the earthworm Gu worm quickly crawled in front of Shangguan Kangning, several people found that the Gu worm was seriously injured, and there were many irregularly shaped wounds on the insect's body, which were dripping with mucus, and the wounds were particularly conspicuous on the oily Gu worm.

Three gray-white insects bit this Gu worm's body. After they felt the warmth of the sun, the three insects crawled down from the earthworm Gu worm's body, and then fled in a panic, looking like they were looking for a place without sunlight.

"Kill them!" This time, Yang Lei's reaction was very fast, and he suddenly reacted, these insects were very likely to be the bone-eating insects that Shangguan Kangning said. If you let these worms crawl on people, it's not a good thing.

As soon as the words fell, Yang Lei took the lead. He stepped out with a slam of his foot, and the target of this foot was a bone-eating insect that had just climbed onto a large rock. It seems that Yang Lei is preparing to use the hard stone to trample this little thing to death at once.

After stomping on the stone hard, Yang Lei raised his foot again, but to his surprise, the surface of the stone was very clean, and there were no bone-eating insects that he imagined to be stepped into a small piece of meat.

"It's really weird, I've already stepped on it." Yang Lei had a question in his heart. Just now he saw clearly that he had stepped on the body of the bone-eating insect, and the little insect did not escape from the sole of his shoe.

"Quick! Shoes! Shangguan Kang Ning shouted fiercely, and with his reminder, Yang Lei reacted, and then he hurriedly raised his foot and looked at the soles of his shoes.

At this moment, Yang Lei saw a small crack on the sole of his shoe, and the tail of the gray-white insect flashed on this crack, and it completely drilled into it.

After a strange scream, Yang Lei took off his shoes at the speed of light, threw them high, sat on the ground, and crawled backwards.

At the moment when the shoe hit the ground, the gray-white bug came out of the shoe. Fortunately, Shangguan Kangning reminded him quickly enough, and Yang Lei's reaction was not slow, otherwise this insect might have burrowed into Yang Lei's body.

As soon as the insect touched the ground, it did a handstand, head down, and then stuck its head in the dirt, while several insect feet on the side of the body kept pulling at the nearby dirt, apparently trying to burrow into the mud.

The umbrella stone marshal standing nearby stepped forward with an arrow, and used the sapper shovel in his hand to insert the bone-eating insect into the place where it had gotten in, and pried up all the dirt on the sapper shovel.

With his prie, a single piece of dirt on the head of the sapper's shovel shattered into several pieces, and the figure of the bone-eating insect peeked out of the crack.

Shangguan Kangning took out a glass bottle, and with a flutter he lay on the ground, and the glass bottle impartially buckled the bone-eating insect and some dirt into it.

Umbrella Stone Shuai also understood very well, he slowly turned the sapper shovel, turned the shovel head over, and the bone-eating insect fell into the glass bottle with the dirt.

Just when the three of them were working hard for this bone-eating insect, Chen Ziyang and Xu Xiaoyuan had already eliminated the other two insects.

When a worm appeared in front of him, Chen Ziyang used the Xuanming Ancient Sword in his hand to accurately cut the worm into two pieces.

And Xu Xiaoyuan casually shot out a red pill, this red pill unbiased on the body of the third bone-eating insect, and the moment it came into contact with the bone-eating insect, the red pill suddenly turned into a flame and burned. There was a crisp "pop", and the bone-eating insects in the flames exploded directly.

Several people gathered around Shangguan Kangning, wanting to see what the bone-eating insect looked like.

The gray-white bug scurried through the bottle, sometimes trying to climb up the wall of the bottle, sometimes trying to burrow into the dirt beneath the bottle.

However, it may be because the texture of the glass is relatively tight and the surface is relatively smooth, this insect will fall when it climbs up, and it will not be able to drill deep when it drills down, and it will come out again after hitting the bottom of the bottle.

Taking advantage of the indiscriminate tossing and turning of the bone-eating insects, several people finally saw the appearance of this Gu worm that had disappeared for many years.

The body of the osteivorous insect is spindle-shaped, with a pointed tail, about a centimeter long, with a triangular pointed head, and two small serrated chelae under its head, but when the chela are retracted, they blend perfectly with its head.

Shangguan Kangning then handed the glass bottle to Chen Ziyang, allowing the bone-eating insects to get closer to Chen Ziyang. At this moment, the bone-eating insects in the bottle swiped faster on both sides of their bodies.

At this time, the bone-eating insect was no longer rushing left and right in the bottle, but kept crawling in the direction of Chen Ziyang, but it couldn't climb the glass bottle, and fell from the wall of the glass bottle again and again.

"Kill it!" After putting on his shoes again, Yang Lei shouted at the Gu worm angrily.

"That's not going to work, it's my baby. This kind of thing has been extinct for many years, and it is rare that I have caught a living one, and I will not let it die easily, so I will keep it for study. Shangguan Kangning hurriedly put the glass bottle back and hugged it in his arms, as if he was afraid that Yang Lei would kill the insect by himself.

"It's a curse to keep it, what if it does come out of the bottle." Xu Xiaoyuan looked at the insects that kept crawling in the bottle and felt very disgusted.

"It's okay, I have a way." After Shangguan Kangning finished speaking, he took out some absorbent cotton soaked in solution from his backpack, pinched a few pieces and threw them into the glass bottle, and screwed the lid of the bottle tightly.

After the absorbent cotton was thrown in, the bone-eating insect crawled slower and slower in the bottle, until it finally came to a complete stop, looking as if it was asleep and dead.

"Don't worry, this liquid is prepared by myself, and the dose I put is very large, and this bone-eating insect will not wake up within a few days."

After saying this, Shangguan Kangning pointed the glass bottle in the direction of the sun, carefully observing this rare insect, and a beautiful smile appeared on his face.

"You still have a stinky mind, look at what virtue your earthworm has become." Yang Lei gloated.

A few people turned their heads to see that the earthworm Gu worm that had been seriously injured before was motionless at this time. The earthworm Gu worm's body was weirdly twisted, like a twisted flower, and some mucus kept oozing out of the wound on the Gu worm's body, and it was already flowing in a large puddle around.

"Huh? Do bone-eating insects bleed? Jin Huang pointed to the insect that had been split into two pieces by Chen Ziyang's sword before.

The bone-eating insect's body was neatly split into two pieces on a stone, its feet still shaking, and some dark red blood wrapped the two parts.

"It shouldn't be the blood of the bone-eating worm, but the blood of the poacher who was eaten by the bone-eating worm before." Whether it was when he said this, or when he saw that the earthworm Gu worm was dead, Shangguan Kangning's gaze never left the bone-eating insect in the bottle.

In his opinion, there was nothing more precious than the bone-eating insect in his hand, and even if the earthworm Gu worm died, he didn't feel so distressed. On the contrary, I felt that the earthworm Gu worm was a well-deserved death, a heroic death, and a very worthwhile death.
