Section 45 Young Beasts

In the afternoon, Tianxiang, who was sitting in the base, was meditating every day. Suddenly, I was attracted by a wave of energy fluctuations coming from afar.

It was an insect beast, a green snake about a meter tall. This is a worm with rather strange habits. Compared to its kind, the green snake is obviously an outlier among them. Most insects and beasts feed entirely on meat. Only in this way can they meet the energy consumption that their huge bodies must consume every day. And the green snake is sour and cold, what to eat. Although calorie-rich meat is still its first choice. However, when there is not much food, it still chooses to feed on plants. From this point of view, the environmental adaptability of the green snake is really much stronger than that of other insects and beasts. Like the giant locust, it is also an insect beast that uses its strength to jump and move after kicking the ground with its strong hind legs. In addition, it also has the same membranous wings and hard wings as the giant locust. Short flights are completely out of the question. Because of this, many hunters see it as the same thing as the giant locust.

Adult youths can stand up to a terrifying height of five or six meters. And this one is only about a meter. It looks like this should be a small underage green snake. Insects, which are forbidden to go out to forage in winter, seem to have become an iron in nature

However, according to the ancients, since even human beings may be for some kind of benefit

benefit, do not hesitate to kill people and sell goods. Well, in order to fill their own hunger, occasionally

It's completely understandable that there are only bugs that wake up early to find something to eat.

Obviously, this juvenile meander falls into this category. Although the snow has melted, the ground is still cold. At this time, there are no bugs at all. The search for nature has not yielded any results. However, its omnivorous nature predestined it to be eaten on this trip. The green grass sprouts buried under the snow are the best food.

Although Qing Xuan was rummaging around less than two hundred meters away from the base, Tianxiang didn't care at all. The base is topped by a thick layer of concrete. Even if Qing Xuan bit off the armor on his mouthparts, he couldn't dig a hole in it at all. As long as you don't go out and provoke Qingyu. It should be safe to stay here. It's just that for this young man, Tianxiang couldn't help but have a little interest. There's really no point in sitting bored, it's better to take a closer look and maybe find something interesting in it.

As if to deliberately attract the attention of a hidden observer, Qing Xuan, who had eaten through the snow, suddenly did something that Tianxiang couldn't laugh or cry about. Probably because they haven't harvested for a long time, the tiny insects and beasts are starting to look a little irritable. The feet and limbs are not very sensitive. Moving around in the cold snow makes it even more clumsy. Although I was lucky enough to find a green grass sprout under the covered snow. However, for it that had just woken up from its hungry sleep, it was obviously just a small plate of appetizers that were not enough to fill the gap.

As a result, the juvenile insects and beasts began to violently lift the tiny pieces of snow with a crazy thirst for food. Attempts to find something beneath it in such a way that something can be found. But it didn't take it into account at all. The icy snow covers the delicious food and hides many hidden dangers。。。。。。 A piece of steel bars hidden under the snow. pierced the claw surface of the hind limbs of the green snake and stepped heavily on the ground. It's like a nail with its tip pointing upwards piercing the instep of a person's foot. Immediately, it caused a sharp pain, causing Qing Xuan to let out a roar of pain. The huge body kept shaking back and forth to relieve the pain. But he didn't notice that less than ten centimeters around him, under the cover of a thin layer of snow, there was a huge pit several meters deep.

There was no suspense, and the silly green snake fell in. Seeing this, Tianxiang couldn't help but laugh out loud. caused everyone around to turn their heads to this side.

"War wind, summer and winter, bring a team. Follow me. Holding back the smile on his face, the happy Tianxiang greeted his assistant. The unexpected appearance of this small insect beast made a new idea pop up in his mind.

The group stepped out of the base, stepping on the "creaking" snow, and came to the dirt pit where the dragonfly fell. For here. They are no strangers. The large pit has been around for quite some time, and judging by the layers of completely petrified concrete that cover its surface and inner walls, it seems that it must have been an underground storage area used by ancient humans to place some kind of item. In particular, the row of rusted iron handles that stretch from the bottom of the pit to the ground is unmistakably illustrated.

Strictly speaking, this is not a dirt pit, but a concrete underground shaft with a bottom layer partially filled with debris. The well is quite large, with a diameter of nearly two meters. As for the bottom of the well, it is at least more than ten meters from the ground. Of course, these seemingly terrifying data are no obstacle at all for nimble humans. Relying on the row of metal handles erected on the wall of the shaft, anyone can easily go up and down between the bottom of the shaft and the surface.

It's just that, for Qing Xuan, its limbs have obviously not evolved to such an extent. Moreover, the kind of "magnanimity" for human beings is incomparably narrow, based on its existing huge body. The insects and beasts that had fallen to the bottom of the well were restlessly moving back and forth on the round concrete surface. The short forelimbs are constantly searching for tiny attachment points on the smooth walls of the well, hoping to get help out of here. The powerful hind limbs kept bouncing continuously, trying to leap out of the gloomy sky overhead.

In normal times, on a more spacious ground, Qingxuan can jump dozens of times more than his own length. Even with the help of wings on the back, you can glide forward leisurely for a long time. It's just that all of this requires space. A large enough space, as if an airplane needs an airport for take-off and landing. However, the narrow bottom of the shaft and the hard concrete wall completely restrict its movement. The current green snake is simply a poor worm that can only walk back and forth at the bottom of the well. Although it has wished to get out of here in a bouncing way countless times. But the result could only be to hit the narrow wall again and again, and finally, with a lot of pain, weakly fell to the bottom of the cold and hard well. People who are in trouble usually make some crazy moves. Green flies are no exception. After repeated attempts to completely fail, the poor little insect beast became more and more irritable. It began to open the sharp armor on either side of the opener, slashing at the concrete walls that had been dry for hundreds of years and were hard enough to rival granite. I hope to help myself escape in this way.

It's just that it's futile to do so, and besides, the body is already quite tired of the green fly. There is no benefit at all. Soon, tiny cracks began to appear on the two sharp pieces of armor. The connection between the slab and the head of the green fly also oozes a hint of pale green liquid. It was blood, the blood of dragonflies.

Tianxiang and his party had already walked to the edge of the well, and they were gathered together, looking at the uninvited guests inside with interest. Being able to catch a live insect beast is something to brag about for any hunter. You must know that this powerful creature with huge power completely dominates the top of the current earth's food chain. Even if it's against a juvenile insect beast. It is simply impossible for anyone to stand up and say that they can deal with it independently. Therefore, there are a few people who are thinking about how to boast about the women after they go back. You know, this is a heroic feat that can definitely attract the admiration of many women.

Although, this little insect beast was completely crooked by itself, and automatically crashed into the well. It has nothing to do with them at all. "Patriarch, what should I do? Are you going to kill it? This insect beast is enough for us to eat a meal. Xia Dong lightly touched Tianxiang's elbow. Asked with a little excitement. In his opinion, this dragonfly represents fresh meat. Although there is still a lot of trichinella meat in the cold storage. But in terms of texture and taste, it can't be compared to slaughtered insect meat alive. Although frozen meat can fill the stomach and the soup tastes good, people always have a different idea. Especially after eating the monotonous frozen meat for a whole winter. That strong desire for fresh blood food naturally comes to everyone's mind. It's just that while asking, Xia Dong also has a question in his heart that makes him quite puzzled.

How could the patriarch know that there was an insect beast trapped here? Who told him? You know, just a few minutes ago, he, like all of us, didn't take a single step out of the door of his residence. He, how on earth did he find out about the anomaly happening here? "Kill? Hehe! You kid knows how to eat! Tianxiang looked at the green snake who was spinning back and forth at the bottom of the well, waved his hand without looking back and smiled: "Go, bring your people to find a few longer steel bars." Let's build a shelf on top of this, and I'm going to catch it alive. By the way, no one is allowed to hurt this green snake. It is not allowed to fight its ideas. ”

If I can raise bugs, why can't I raise an obedient bug beast? Didn't the ancients tame even the fiercer tigers and lions, why can't I? You know, if you can successfully domesticate insects and beasts, it will definitely be a great help for future hunting. More than a dozen steel bars with a length of thirty or forty meters were found. Under Tianxiang's command, the hunters plunged one of them deep into the ground. The protruding part just stopped above the well. These steel bars were densely inserted along the soil layer on the surface of the well, and suddenly formed a solid hollow conical metal cage at a distance of meters above the ground. From a distance, it looks as if a strangely shaped pyramid appeared out of thin air on the flat ground. The strange human's inexplicable behavior apparently caused panic among the insects trapped at the bottom of the well. It began to let out a low roar of threat and intimidation, and leaped again, hoping to break through the well. Although he didn't know what the humans who had been treated as food by it were trying to do, Qing Xuan knew very well that it was definitely a move that was not good for him. Therefore, the only way is to get out of here as soon as possible. Compared to the kind of jumping just now, Qing Xuan's current movements are obviously much better than before. Maybe it's because you're familiar with your surroundings! Its body began to leap out of the well. Again and again, it hit the cage made of steel bars. However, it soon found out to its dismay: it did so as to pay off. Except for leaving some bruises on his body, it didn't do anything at all.

The steel cage was so strong that the hunters cleverly built it so that the steel bars were connected to each other, counteracting the tremendous impact from the bottom of the well. Unless it is lifted one by one from above, the limited gravity impact of the green grass alone is not enough to break it open. "War Wind, go cut some grass. Don't overdo it, just get some by the way. Looking at the helpless and pitiful appearance of the green fly in the iron cage. Tianxiang couldn't help laughing, and anyone would be overjoyed to get such an excellent experiment easily.

Only, don't get carried away and starve this poor little thing to death, but you must not feed it. Who knows how strong it will be after a full meal. It would be a big joke to let them escape because of this. A hug of the usual tender grass, found here by the wind from under the nearby snow. The gap in the cage was large enough to be thrown down.

It's just that a sudden accident happened at this time.

Tender green blades of grass are for green meanders. Undoubtedly a temptation. The insect beast, which had no scruples at all, suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the little food on the ground. However. As the number of blades of grass quickly disappeared, the consciousness of the green earth gradually became blurred, and the chewing in his mouth became more and more slow. Finally, he finally fell to the ground and could no longer get up smoothly. Everyone was amazed at the unexpected situation. There is speculation about whether the insects and beasts have eaten any poisonous plants, which has led to the current situation.

"It's not dead!" Tianxiang quickly let go of his thoughts and made a tentative contact with Qingxuan's brain. The result surprised him.

It wasn't dead, it was just sleeping. He slept so dead that he looked like he was dead. For such a deep sleep, the ancients had a rather apt term: "coma".

As long as it's an animal. are all in a coma. But only if it happens in the event of some kind of sudden attack on the brain. The attack may have come from the outside or from within the perpetrators themselves. There are many reasons for this. But in any case, external factors generally account for the vast majority of these reasons.

Obviously, the reason for the green fly's coma was the tender grass that the war wind had brought in. "Where did you get all this grass? Go ahead, get another copy as you just did. The happy expression on Tianxiang's face was gone. Instead, there was a hurried tone full of uncertainty.

Blades of grass are collected quickly, and although the snow hides the traces of their existence, the poor hunters have no choice but to expose their fragile bodies under the almost savage movements of the hunters. In a short time, a hug of identical tender grass appeared in front of Tianxiang's eyes. "Pack your things and go back right away." The whole work is short and crisp, which is Tianxiang's consistent style. It's just that now he really wants to rush back to the base as soon as possible to reflect the weird thoughts that just popped up in his head.

Compared to the cold outside, the base with a roaring flame is obviously much warmer. However, Tianxiang obviously didn't have the heart to enjoy the comfort of the huge difference between them, and his attention was completely absorbed by the few blades of grass in his hand. Now, he is classifying the blades of grass one by one according to their shape, and then gently placing them on the ground. Two hundred and fourteen blades of grass, six species.

"That's it. What I need, it shouldn't be hidden in it. Looking at the piles of grass on the ground with satisfaction, Tianxiang couldn't help but show a weird smile on his face. He knew very well that the plant that caused the unexpected coma of Qingxuan was among them. The rest of the work is just to pick and screen it out of it. He already had an idea of how to identify them. Find a few random people and taste one in order

Just the taste of grass blades.

The question is, who exactly should I ask to do the experiment? For these unknown plants

objects, and who can guarantee that they will not have any side effects on people when eaten?

Tianxiang didn't want to lose any of his clansmen. After all, he is the patriarch, and he

We are the people who bow down to themselves.

This hesitation did not last long. "For the life of a hundred, one must die." Such ancient proverbs, Tianxiang knows too much. So, after a little thought, he ended up reaching for the crowd of onlookers, pointing at one of them.

"You, come here."
