Chapter 88: The World of Insects
After bathing, we didn't go back to the forest right away, because there were a lot of water droplets on our bodies, we needed to evaporate them, and at the same time, we also needed to replenish enough energy on our bodies, and after soaking in the water for a long time, a lot of heat in our bodies was taken away by the water, so replenishing calories was a top priority.
When I say energy supplementation, I don't want to eat, but to bask directly in the sun, and although red-haired dinosaurs don't have a good feeling for the sun, it doesn't affect us from drawing calories from the sun. Just like if you don't like a Chinese teacher, you can't even stop learning Chinese. We are ectotherms, the body temperature is too high and too low to stand it, and the body's ability to regulate is not strong, so when we feel that the body temperature is low, we bask in the sun to raise the body temperature; when our body temperature is high, we go to the shade of the tree to dissipate heat, and remain motionless, to avoid the heat generated by exercise to make the body temperature rise, of course, if there is a river, go to the river to take a bath, then the effect is needless to say.
No further ado.
The skin hasn't dried yet, I think it will take at least two days to dry. But the skin is now a battleground for insects. The green-headed flies were the first to arrive, not only eating fat stomachs, but also did not wipe their mouths and left, but regarded this place as a delivery room, and as soon as the little maggots crawled out of their stomachs, they wandered around, as if there was an endless beauty here.
The bees are not far behind, dozens of bees bite and gnaw on the skin, you may not understand, these bees do not go to collect honey, come here to join in the fun, you are wrong, they are not to join in the fun, of course, the purpose of their coming is not to collect honey, although the dragon skin is good, but it does not produce honey, they are here to pick rubber, the construction of the hive needs a lot of glue, the skin of the carnivorous dinosaur is ready-made glue, the bees will not let go, they know that these glue is not poisonous, you can use it boldly with confidence.
Those mosquitoes and bed bugs were so anxious to look for blood, I saw a mosquito swirling in front of a little dried blood, and then, it stopped there, licking vigorously on the dry bloodstain, I don't know if it licked it, I didn't help, I didn't take it away, I had to figure it out.
A shell lang rolled an egg passing by here, wanted to see what was going on here, jumped a few times, couldn't see clearly, and then simply stood on the egg and looked here, just looking at it, I didn't expect the egg to roll from behind, the shell lang fell down, fell to the ground, shook his head, pushed its egg away.
A cricket came over, look at these insects busy, it didn't go to the skin, it might be dirty, I suspect crickets have a habit of cleanliness, their bodies are always so clean, and when they stop, they always wash their whole body with their feet dipped in saliva. Flies also have this habit, but flies are pseudo-hygienic because they have just been washed and fly to the poop looking for something to eat.
I remember a little humor about the family of flies eating, and the little flies asked their mother, "Mom, why do we eat poop?" and the mother flies said with a tiger face, "Child, you are not allowed to swear during mealtime." ”
The cricket looked at it, whistled in a chic manner, and walked leisurely, and then walked with a song as if there was something happy.
A few locusts and grasshoppers pricked themselves into a fierce stab, and they came to look at it intently, and saw that there was nothing unusual, and then they jumped away again.
The praying mantis also came slowly, seemingly careless, but in fact looking for prey, and the triangular head looked around.
The most is a group of ants, they seem to be extremely busy, scurrying around on the skin, after the two ants meet, shake their heads, touch the antennae, ghostly eyebrows like spies, some ants directly put their black hands to the newborn baby maggots, those fly mothers have long not known where to fly to be happy, what about these little guys, they give birth to these little maggots, but it's like a poop, as for these little maggots in the future, who cares about them?
I saw with my own eyes a black ant holding a little maggot and running, the little maggot kept struggling, and then another black ant came, as if it had been discussed, and came to help, I suspect that they are the reincarnation of two human traffickers, otherwise, how can there be such a tacit understanding?
Occasionally, dragonflies fly by, but they come to urge mosquitoes: "Hey, buddy, hurry up, people have been waiting for you for a long time, and they want to kill you in their stomachs." ”
The butterfly will never come to settle down, it is an aesthete, only bright flowers can attract it to stop, those unreleased buds or wilted petals of fallen flowers, it is too lazy to pay attention, let alone a stinky skin?
A small space, a big world.
Small and big have always been two relative concepts. There is neither absolute small nor absolute greatness. Even in the square inch, there are still many sentient beings who are busy, competing for hegemony, intriguing, burying their heads in work, harboring evil intentions, obsessed with it, staying out of things, or good or evil, honest or cunning, or sacrificing their lives for righteousness or selling their lords for glory, or lingering for centuries or leaving a stench for thousands of years, the world is driven by two wheels -- one is good and one is evil.
Good and evil, one eliminates the other, and the other disappears. However, how many people in the whole world can truly exercise self-discipline? Do not take evil as small and not suppress it, and do not take good as small and fail to promote it, so that the healthy trend in the world can be carried forward, the evil spirit can be eliminated, the country and the people will be safe, and the world will be greatly governed.
After some emotion, the water droplets on our bodies have evaporated, and our body temperature has risen to normal, but this dragon skin will continue to be placed here, and we don't have to pay attention to the insects to compete with each other and take what they need.
This does not show how charitable and selfless we are, in fact, what insects need is exactly what we want to give up, and what insects give up is exactly what we need. In other words, for us, the insects are giving us free work, and for the insects, we are giving them a free lunch. We have a very perfect harmony with the insects for mutual benefit.
"Let's move the stack of fruit to the bedside and walk around the neighborhood, maybe there's something to be surprised. I said.
Peony agreed very much, and preemptively put the big fruit stack on his body, after all, he was too small, I saw that his waist was bent, and his little face was red.
"Put it down, you can't take it, you take this small one. I hurriedly urged.
"It's okay, I can do it, I've grown up. "While talking to me breathlessly, he picked up his legs and walked away, without waiting for me.
"See you in bed......" After taking a few steps, he turned back and grimaced, and said in a long voice.
See you on the bed? See you at the bedside.
It's a misunderstanding.
