Section 47 Taming
The snow has begun to melt, and then the weather is still cold. .Π / Compared to usual, the cold and hard land has also regained its new vitality after being frozen for a long time. The new grass teeth pushed through the layers of dirt that covered them, revealing their stubborn bodies. The gloomy winter is nothing more than a night full of sleep for them. They woke up from their slumber, desperately sucking up every nutrient from the cold and wet soil. I can't wait to look at every part of the strange world eagerly and carefully with a curious gaze, from the part that is exposed to the ground. Looking for the scent that you might be familiar withγγγγγγ
Spring is coming. The awakening of plants seems to be a signal with a double meaning. It announced both the bitter defeat of the cold in the face of warmth and the repetition of another kind of danger. Because a warm spring isn't just for plants. For animals, it is clear that they are more looking forward to the arrival of spring than they are.
The bugs are out of their holes. They have been sleeping for a while, completely consuming all the fat stored in their bodies. In order to increase one's physical strength, one must satisfy the empty stomach bag that is giving you a threatening order at that moment. Only by completely filling every crevice of it can complete relief be gained from this terrible threat.
In an instant, the world that was completely covered with white snow completely became a world of dense insects. They searched for everything that could be used to feed their hunger in every crevice of the ground. They will never miss a hint of information that might bring food. They don't even spare a piece of rotting flesh, not a single edible plant, or a single corpse of their own kind. Because, that's food. It is food that can fill your hunger.
Although, the taste of those things is sure not to be good in the mouth.
But the important thing is that they can eat, they can convert it into what they need, and they can provide the weak body with the energy to find more food.
At this moment, the bug people became hunters. They hunt everything that can be taken as prey. Of course. This includes their own kind. The surface of the well, which had sunk into the well, had been moved to a vacant cell inside the base after taking the anesthetic herbs. There is a small nest specially prepared for it by Tianxiang. It is also a special place for domesticating insects and beasts. Although the insects have strong strength, they are also firmly at the top of the Zerg food chain. But there are no absolutes in anything. A group of hungry herbivores, in a desperate situation, will definitely attack an isolated insect beast.
After all, eat your meat. I was able to live. Tianxiang didn't want that to happen. This green snake is not easy to come by, and there is absolutely no room for loss. While transferring the insects and beasts, he also repeatedly warned his people that they did not have his consent. No one is allowed to kill this young insect beast. No one is allowed to leave the base without permission.
Because, it's spring. It's the thinnest and craziest time of the year. Although, this time will only last for about a month. In layman's terms, that's six solar days.
For what happened to her, Qingfei was obviously quite dissatisfied. When it woke up from its coma, it immediately went berserk. The futile act of armor desperately slashing through the metal cage is staged again. The results are no different from before. It's just that the roar that permeates the interior of the underground base often wakes everyone up from their sweet sleep.
"Starve it for a few days. Don't give it anything! This is Tianxiang's order, and it is also the special treatment that Qingfei is currently "enjoying".
"Hunger can make the noblest give up all their dignity, and it can also make the proudest woman automatically take off the last thin garment that covers her shame. They will bow their heads for the tiniest crumbs, and they will wag their tails at you like the most despicable dogs. As long as you have absolute ability, you can completely conquer a country and conquer a nation with hunger. Even, conquer the whole world. "The teachings of the ancients have explained the role of hunger. Tianxiang is convinced: since you have come, the noblest human beings cannot resist the temptation of food to hunger. So. A dragonfly with a simple mind. Naturally, it is even more impossible to have any steadfast discipline.
One word. Starve it for a few days. Hungry until it completely surrenders to the hand I give him food and honestly controls it. If one day is not enough, it will be two days, if two days is not enough, it will be three days, and if it is not enough, it will be a week, a month, or even half a year. If it really doesn't give in, then it will starve to death. It's a big deal to make soup with dragonfly bones, anyway. The ultimate victory must be mine.
Even if it dies, it must obey my commands. Poor little Qingxuan, all the tragic fate, from the moment he stupidly fell into the well. Although, it doesn't feel much about it right now. It only knew that it was hungry, and the humans in front of it, who were supposed to be their own food, locked themselves up with a solid iron fence. This made the already extremely unbalanced Qing Xuan in his heart completely fall into madness.
It's just that this madness didn't last long. After a week, the green fly no longer has any physical strength to toss. Those huge compound eyes full of arrogance have completely lost their untamed look. Instead, it is a kind of weak helplessness and sorrow.
A handful of fragrant fresh grass blades suddenly fell to its mouth like a treasure from heaven. This made the green fly, who was half-lying on the cold hard ground, widen his eyes suddenly, and at the fastest speed in his life, he took a bite of the grass that couldn't even plug between his teeth, and chewed it carefully. This meal is probably the most fragrant and least eaten meal since the dragonfly was born. Even, this is not a pause at all, it is just a mouthful.
It remembered the man who threw its food.
His eyes were full of majesty and power, and it was clear that there was also a threat that needed to be surrendered to himself. Even, in an inexplicably weird way, he clearly told himself: He wants me to be his mount, he, he actually wants it on my back!
No! Never! It's simply impossible!
I am an insect beast, a great insect beast with great strength. How could it be possible to be ridden on my noble back by a weak human? This kind of thing. Don't even think about it!
So, Qingfei, who had just replenished part of his physical strength, once again staged his madness. Tianxiang stood at an absolutely safe distance, gently touching his chin, which had grown a little short, and looked at the angry and frantic Qing Xuan in the cage with interest. A faint smile with obvious contempt appeared on his face. He used his thoughts to communicate with Qing Xuan, although the current brainwave energy was not enough to control the insect beast, but it was enough to transmit his thoughts to the Storm Bug. Let it be clear: "I am your master, and you must obey me." Because, I control all your food sources. "The game between the struggle and the threat lasted for two days. The hungry and powerless frog is dying again. At this time, the same green blades of grass appeared in front of its eyes again.
It's just that, compared to the last time, the food giver also told the green fly something a little bit more at the same time.
"Agree to my request, then the grass is yours. If you don't say yes, then you continue to starve! Qing Xuan hesitated for the first time, looking at the scattered bunch of grass in front of him, it almost lost its most basic thinking ability. It even wants to cry if it has lacrimal glands. It never thought of its own supreme dignity. Lost to a small bunch of blades of grass.
For the sake of this little thing, he gave everything he had to the humble human beings in front of him. Is it worth it? Is it possible?
At that moment, Qing Shu thought of death. Right! Death, suicide, or, as a matter of course, is the only way to end one's current miserable situation. Only death can preserve one's dignity and save oneself from the dark fate of being controlled by humans.
But. That hunger that doesn't exist all the time. It was at this time that the stomach pouch was peristalsis again with the strongest intensity. Clearly tell Qingfei: "Even if you die, you must meet my requirements and satisfy my **." "I'm hungry! I'm so hungry! Even if it is a ruthless person with a heart of stone, I am afraid that he will cry after watching Qingfei's performance. This poor insect beast is about to be tormented mad by the ordinary bunch of grass on the ground that can't be in ordinary blades of grass. Several times, its huge mouth with transparent saliva reached the edge of the grass, and the peculiar fragrance of the fabric stimulated it. Let it succumb to its own attached mission and tell yourself clearly: "Come on! Eat me with peace of mind, swallow me with the most satisfying and comfortable feeling, and let my sweet juices moisten your dry throat. Let me soothe your tormented stomach. Come on! Be obedient and eat me obediently! "No creature can resist such a temptation.
However, just when the green fly was a little confused, she wanted to completely lose herself in this temptation. A faint sense of reason tells it unmistakably: "You can eat it, but if you eat it, it means that you will lose your freedom forever." I can't control what you do, and you're left to find the answers you want in between. β
This hesitation lasted for nearly a week. Tianxiang was not worried at all, he had plenty of time to continue playing with this green snake on the verge of collapse. It's spring when all the bugs are crazy, and when their own people go out at this time, they can only add a lot of delicious food to the hungry swarm. Rather than that, it's better to stay in a safe base for a while. It's good to tame this little dragonfly by the way.
Although, this idea obviously seems a bit difficult. But I have time and food, so what are you afraid of? People and insects can wait, but the grass nourished by the earth cannot remain verdant forever. Soon, the tender green leaves shriveled down a little due to lack of moisture. For the hungry green fly, there is naturally a lot less temptation at the beginning.
What does it taste like? A smell of rich meat wafted from the flame of fear. The shriveled stomach pouch of the green fly squirmed frantically again. Wave after wave of violently corrosive acid water rolled through it, and the shivering and tingling that spread throughout its body had unmistakably told it of its strongest need. I want to eat! I want to eat it!
It's broth, it's the smell of broth.
Tianxiang held a large bowl of clay firing, holding half a bowl of insect broth floating with thick oil beads, paced, slowly walked to the front of Qing Xuan, with an indescribable sense of comfort, leaned his neck and drank it happily, sighed long, and hiccuped loudly with an incomparably crisp hiccup. A rich smell of meat mixed with the heat in the body rushed straight to the hungry green wind. The cage was completely covered by a large pool of viscous transparent liquid. The source of this is the huge mouth of the green fly.
It is a combination of hunger and greed--- saliva, which is commonly known as saliva.
"How? Want to eat? This bowl of soup is fragrant and delicious. I can give it to you, do you want it? In Qingxuan's mind, the damn mysterious voice appeared again. This time, however, it couldn't resist it. I could only subconsciously nod obediently. With this action, I saw that the pottery bowl in Tianxiang's hand also began to tilt forward. Under the homeopathic effect, half a bowl of residual soup was splashed into Qingxuan's mouth. What a wonderful taste! The green fly closed its mouth tightly, and swallowed the mouthful of soup, which was not very much for it. It doesn't allow a single drop of delicious juice to slip through the corners of your mouth. It is only now that I know that there is such a delicious thing in this world. The feeling of the supreme and delicious juice in your mouth is simply a great pleasure.
WhewβIf you can eat this kind of thing every day, then it doesn't seem like a non-negotiable thing to sell your noble dignity. This time, Tianxiang did not force Qingfei. He just poured the soup in his hand to the poor prisoner. Without looking back, he turned and walked towards the joyous fire.
At that moment, a rather strange thought suddenly occurred in Qingfei's mind. He had some expectations, no, I should say some expectations. I hope that this humble human who once insulted himself will be able to turn around again and give himself another bowl of that delicious liquid to taste... Fortunately, the next day, Qing Xuan also got a bowl of broth that he had been looking forward to for a long time.
Day 3. The same treatment continues.
Day 4γγγγγγ
The broth was delicious. But it doesn't matter if it's full. A palm-sized bowl of soup. It only stimulates the green stomach pouch to make more fanatical demands. It is persecuting the green, threatening the green, and making the greens submit. Obviously, this kind of pressure from within is obviously much more useful than external coercion.
Fifth, the white flag was finally raised, and it could no longer endure this endless torture. Dignity and nobility are nothing but illusory existences for it. But that bowl of broth, that bowl of delicious broth, is the best way to solve your pain once and for all. Especially after the human made a promise to give him an entire pot of soup, Qing Xuan silently accepted Tianxiang's request almost without even thinking about it. If you are a hunter who lives in a dark world, you will be amazed by the wonders that appear in the Tianxiang camp. You will find that one of the most terrifying insect beasts is actually dining with humans.
Moreover, the food is delicious.
A large iron pot filled with warm broth is the rice bowl of the green fly. Now, it was sticking its huge head into it, desperately swallowing the delicious juice in it. The fourth pot, this is the fourth pot of soup that the green fly has drunk since he came out of the cage. As a large amount of fluid flowed into its body, the shriveled belly of the green fly swelled up like a ball that had been blown up. Now Tianxiang is in the eyes of everyone, and its prestige has reached a point where there is no addition. Taming an insect beast, hunters have never seen it, or even heard of it. If at first there were some people who were opposed to bringing such dangerous creatures into the base to live with them. Well, now, this opposition of theirs has completely turned into curiosity. Especially when they saw the green fly that eats people and does not spit out bones, and obediently follows Tianxiang to the soup pot not far from the fire like a little daughter-in-law who has not passed the door, and eats happily, they almost stared out of their eyes. Sky! A man-eating insect beast would sit down with me to eat? And also drink soup in the same pot, this, this, this is not a dream, right?
Everyone's eyes were in their eyes. He had expected this. There is a process of acceptance for anything new. He believed that the surprise of his people would not last long. After all, as long as the first insect beast is tamed, it means the appearance of the second and third heads. This kind of thing is just a matter of time. What's more, he had already planned that this little green snake that had just been tamed would come in handy immediately.
Before that happens, though, there's another issue that needs to be addressed urgently.
