Chapter 958: Mutation
Jing Ji carefully cultivates the substitute cephalic larvae.
He didn't know much about the carvae, and basically learned it from the conversations of the clansmen. So in addition to breeding the substitutes, he decided to see for himself how powerful it was.
He caught some animals, from monkeys of normal size, to stout black apes with a height of three meters, and big-eyed mongooses with big fists, and tethered them all to the woods with special rattans.
All the apes struggled and screamed in terror.
The black ape roared, and the monkey howled, and the combination was so noisy that the leaves in the woods fell in a flutter. Jing Ji didn't seem to hear it, walked unhurriedly to the river, scooped a bowl of water with a stone bowl, and then turned back.
He walked over to a yellow-haired monkey, stingily put an egg into the water, and then put his right hand around the monkey's mouth like a pincer, and pushed his fingers against its fangs, and poured the river water mixed with the eggs into its throat.
The river was poured into it without leaking.
"Roar!"
After the yellow-haired monkey was let go, it bared its teeth and hissed fiercely at Jing Ji, its eyes glowing red, and it tore the rattan violently, trying to break free of the rattan and escape.
However, the rattan seemed to be alive, and the more it struggled, the tighter it became, and the monkey was hung upside down with its feet on its leash, and its limbs bouncing in panic.
"Twitter!"
The monkey's cry became full of begging for mercy.
Jing Ji walked over and pulled the rattan, letting the monkey's feet hit the ground.
The monkey was not grateful, and as soon as he landed, he pounced on it and tore Jing Ji's calf, but the seemingly sharp teeth couldn't even bite the skin of Jing Ji, and Jing Ji didn't even bother to stop it, so he kicked it lightly in the belly, and then continued to feed the next monkey water mixed with insect eggs.
After feeding them all, Jing Ji waited patiently for them to change.
This is a day.
The sky in the ancient forest was getting dark.
The red moon rises, the giant insects revel, and the figure sitting on the dead leaves is swallowed up by the darkness.
Time passed slowly, the sun rose in the east, the sky was dyed white, the tips of dead leaves condensed dewdrops, and the figure sitting on it was awakened by the first rays of sunlight.
Jing Ji opened his eyes.
He found that the day had passed, and the apes in the whole forest were as good as ever, even the smallest mongoose was still alive and well, without any symptoms, and a pair of large jeweled eyes were still full of luster and not clouded.
Jing Ji frowned.
“...... Did you hear me wrong?"
The clan people say that the attack of the cephalic larvae should be very fast, and the smaller the size, the weaker the animal, the faster the attack.
For such a long time, even a fighter should have developed symptoms.
Jing Ji grabbed a meerkat monkey with a gloomy face, and carefully examined the little thing with sparse hair and the size of a fist.
The meerkat monkey struggled violently in his hands, apparently with great strength.
Jing Ji frowned and opened its long pointed ears, and then opened its fur to look carefully, but did not find a single egg.
After thinking for a moment, Jing Ji pulled out the bone dagger.
The tip of the knife pierced into the mongoose monkey's body, and after the mongoose monkey's scream, it quickly peeled off its skin to confirm that there were no eggs under the skin, and then cut the meat inch by inch along the texture, rummaging for possible eggs inside.
He searched so carefully that he even cut open the internal organs and looked at them.
However, the meerkat monkey's body is so clean that even if the blood vessels are cut, not a single egg can be found.
Jing Ji put down the bone dagger, went to the river to wash his hands, and washed the blood stains. Then his fingers were like iron, breaking watermelons, and the mongoose monkey's head was clattered open.
After a long time, he finally pulled out a very thin and extremely thin white flesh worm about the size of a newly hatched silkworm.
He breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed a new mongoose monkey, twisted the small, thin baitocephalic larvae, and stuffed it into the mongoose's nostrils.
To make sure that the larvae burrow in.
He gagged the mongoose monkey's nostrils, and took the poor mongoose monkey's feet, and shook it upside down, and finally tied it up with a rattan stick.
......
Jing Ji patiently carried out the experiment for several months.
He was pleasantly surprised by the result.
He found that perhaps because the surviving cephalic larvae had undergone an extinction catastrophe, the surviving cephalic larvae had changed a lot, more precisely, evolved.
There are many characteristics that are different from what the clan people call a substitute for the cephalic larvae.
The growth cycle of neo-cephalic larvae is longer. It takes at least five days from the time the eggs enter the body to the time when the larvae mature in the brain, and much longer for humans.
In addition, even if the cephalic larvae have become adults in the host, and half of the host's brain has been replaced by the worm, the host still appears normal and can act autonomously.
This change is quite symbiotic and more insidious.
Jing Ji casually grabbed the arm of a black ape.
"Roaring ——!"
The three-meter-tall black ape, full of hard muscles, roared fiercely, and whimpered and begged for mercy when he found that he couldn't resist the strength of Jing Ji.
Jing Ji stepped on the black ape's chest, opened its eyelids and looked at it.
"There are no eggs. ”
He tugged at the black ape's scalp and looked sideways at its ear holes, but there were no eggs inside.
"Sure enough, there isn't one here. ”
Jing Ji knocked open the black ape's head and pulled it in. Not surprisingly, the substitute cephalic larvae inside have matured, replacing half of the black ape's brain, very fat, crawling all over the ground after being caught, mentally and disgusting.
Jing Ji stuffed strips of cloth into his ears and nostrils, cut open the black ape's body, and collected the eggs in its body one by one.
The third change in the larvae is that they do not lay eggs indefinitely.
And some of the eggs are very, very small.
The bloody tip of the knife sliced open the abdomen and picked out a grain of sand-sized egg from the liver.
The eggs were bloody, sticking to the tip of the knife. And without this blood, this extremely tiny egg would definitely be swept up by the wind, and if it happened to be sucked into the nasal cavity, then it would take root and sprout like a seed.
If the above three changes will bring great trouble to the clan.
Then the other two changes bring about the danger of annihilation.
- Worm powder, which is ineffective against new replacement cephalic larvae. White loquat soup is also ineffective for new replacements for cephalic larvae.
Originally, Jing Ji wanted to use the substitute head larvae to bring some trouble to the clan, and then use the poisonous mushroom spores to severely damage the clan.
During his long wanderings, he found an extremely rare poisonous mushroom, the spores of this poisonous mushroom are extremely hallucinogenic and no matter how strong the beast is, as long as it inhales a little spores, it will fall into endless madness.
And when this sporum is inhaled by a colony, whether it is an ant colony, a bee colony or a dinosaur colony, it will fall into extremely fierce cannibalism.
The mushroom spores were meant to be the main meal he had brought to the clan.
But after experimentation, he changed his mind.
Substitute cephalic larvae, more dangerous.
......
The two hot suns shine on the earth.
A giant pterosaur flew by.
The strong air currents swept up the dry dust on the ground, and the yellow sand spread out, overwhelmingly rushing towards the stone house community, like a small sandstorm.
Tingyan, who was sitting on the back of the thunder beast and drinking water, was suddenly pounced on by the sand.
Tingyan quietly calmed down with a numb expression, then stretched out his index finger to block one of his nostrils, and snorted hard to squirt out the sand in the other nostril, and then replaced it with another one.
After squirting all the sand out, he found that there was sand in the water bladder, and he frustrated himself and threw the water bladder aside, allowing the water to flow to the ground.
Cone: "Don't throw it away, I still want to drink it." ”
He sat on the ground, his back resting on the belly of the Thunder Beast, whose tall body blocked the hot sun.
Because he sat in the leeward place, the cone was not hit by the dust, and his face was quite neat.
He looked up at Tingyan with a yellow sand face, and gloated: "If you don't wash your face, you Eminem won't recognize you standing in front of you!"
Tingyan brushed the dust and sand on his face: "I'm too lazy to wash." ”
"After washing my face, as soon as I look up and the wind blows, my face is not dirty again, so it is better not to bother with it. ”
The cone understands how Thunder Rock feels.
He took a long breath, completely paralyzed on the Thunder Beast, looked at the yellow hazy sky, and sighed: "It's too dry here, I really want to go back to Xicheng......" He felt that his breath was full of dust, and he missed the moist and fresh air of Xicheng very much.
Tingyan was depressed: "I also want to go back to the Thunder Tribe, there is nothing else, I can't stand sucking sand every day!"
Cone teased him: "Don't you Thunder tribe like to expel beasts in sandstorms, why, you can't stand this little wind and sand?"
Tingyan rolled his eyes: "Our sandstorms are only a few times a year, and now this is soaking in the sand every day, can it be the same?"
"The life of their clan is really rough, and they can even hide in the stone house and be blown by the sand. He muttered.
The stone house rocks of the clan people were too rough and leaking sand.
The wind and sand of the Continental Bridge are too big, let alone people, even the war beasts can't stand this wind and sand.
Like the thunder beast they leaned on, no matter how much movement there was around, whether there were pterosaurs flying by, or listening to the clan's giant white-haired kangaroo knock to the door, all keep their hooves over their noses, their eyes closed, lying on the ground motionless, like a dead dog.
The original blue-black Thunder Beast was now blown by the sand and dust to the point that there was no blue-black on its body, and it was yellow and yellow.
"Well, I don't know when I'll be able to go back. ”
Thunder Rock hung his head and slapped his long hair hard.
Spectacular dust was dusted off in the sun and fluttered onto the cone.
The cone was coldly spilled, jumped up, and scolded angrily, "What the hell are you doing!" he shook his head, and his bone-adorned pigtails tinkled and rattled.
Tingyan laughed.
Cone was afraid that he would make trouble again, so he simply found a piece of white silkworm cloth and wrapped his head.
Tingyan: "It's so smelly and beautiful. ”
Cone: "You don't stink, but you shaved your hair!"
Tingyan smiled and said, "I...... Ahh
A gust of gravelly wind blew, and Thunder Rock sneezed hard.
The cone was about to taunt him, but suddenly his eyes froze on his face: "Hey, I feel if you have white spots on your face?"
"Really?" Thunder Rock scratched his face, not paying attention.
Cone: "Our Lord Xiwu said that there are white spots on the face, and there may be parasites in the body, do you want to ask the doctor to take a look?"
"If you have white spots on your face, you have parasites, maybe it's sunburned?" Tingyan waved his hand, "Forget it, even if it's really a parasite, you won't bother to heal the witch, just drink some white loquat soup by yourself." ”
The cone casually said, "Then you remember to drink some white loquat soup." "The clan's white loquat soup is really useful, not only to deal with the substitute head larvae, but also to shoot down other parasites, and even if there are lice on the head, you can use the white loquat soup to force the lice away.
Said white loquat soup white loquat soup to.
Listening to the green ears carrying a vat of chilled white loquat soup, he came over excitedly.
"Boom!"
The stone jar was placed heavily on the ground, and a dull sound sounded: "Come, specially brought it to you, quench your thirst and quench your thirst!"
Cone and Thunder Rock's eyes lit up and they were overjoyed.
"Good brother!"
"You just wanted to drink this and you sent it, haha!
The three of them are from Xicheng, one is from the Lei tribe, and the other is from the Tingshi clan, and they didn't have any intersection, but they got together because of their mutual friend Ye Xi, and later found that they lost their temper with each other, so they interacted more.
As the one with the highest strength, I often take care of them, and I don't have any shelf for ninth-level warriors.
"I've used cold witch pattern ice, and I also added a lot of your Xicheng snow sugar to ensure that it tastes good!" Hearing the green ear said with a smile. Even though the cephalic larvae have been eliminated, the clan has long been accustomed to drinking white loquat soup, and still drinks some from time to time.
"Good!"
Tingyan picked up the vat and drank it directly to his mouth.
Cone: "Has this water ever boiled?"
Listening to the green ear, he said: "You Xicheng people are very particular. ”
The cone was also thirsty, licked his lips and said, "No way, we Xiwu want us to drink boiling water." Tell me, do you use boiling water for cooling, or do you use lake water directly?"
Listen to the green ear tell the truth: "The lake water is used directly." ”
Whoever has the patience to boil water on a hot day, pour the lake water into the tank, and then squeeze the white loquat fruit, throw the juice and pulp into it, and then stir it with a wooden stick, and it will live.
He was quite particular about it, and chilled it with a cold witch pattern.
Others who engage in this.
"Knock knock!"
Like a buffalo, Tingyan was still holding the jar in his arms and raising his head to drink.
The cone stared at the frost-strewn wall.
This white loquat soup looks cold and cold, and it must be refreshing to drink on a hot day...... But Xi Wu also said that it is better not to drink raw water.
To drink or not to drink, that's the question......
Tingyan put the stone jar on the ground and wiped his mouth: "I left it for you, I didn't finish it, drink it quickly!"
After two seconds, the cone finally failed to resist the thirst and picked up the stone jar.
