It can be said that if possible, Zou Shuidong would like to steal their demon beasts and giant beasts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Talking with other Taoist children, Zou Shuidong knew a lot of things.

For example, a certain Taoist boy explained in a happy and troubled tone how powerful his giant beast mount was, but there was a problem, that is, it needed to prepare a lot of food for it every day.

When Zou Shuidong heard this, he didn't know that the other party was showing off.

Therefore, seeing that Zhao Xiaopaw could move, where could he still hold back, and pulled Zhao Xiaopaw to ask him to lay eggs, well, it was to let the ant demon lay eggs.

Although the ant demon was attached to Zhao Xiaopaw and became a tattoo, he was still able to communicate with Zhao Xiaopu.

Zhao Xiaopaw has been lying in bed for the past few days, but he has learned a lot of things from the ant demon.

For example, Mingyang Immortal Venerable ignited the demons, fought with demons and other stories, and at the same time, he also knew what dangers these villages located in the outer area of the Marquis of Terence were.

Demons, this thing is often found in the mouth of the ant-demon.

Zhao Xiaopaw also knows this thing, most of those who have read online novels know it, in short, it is right to use all bad words to describe them.

To be honest, after learning about these dangers, even if Zou Shuidong didn't pull him, he would let the ant demon start laying eggs.

With the three brothers' Taoism, they can only deal with a few intermediate demons at most, and if they encounter high-level demons, they will be blind.

If there are a large number of ants and monsters, at least there is no need to worry about the attack of demons.

But if you want to let the ant demon lay eggs, it is not a simple matter, you must first prepare the food of the ant demon, even if the ant demon is a monster. It is also impossible to be separated from some basic needs, especially things like spawning, which require a lot of nutrients.

Zhao Xiaopaw only knew one thing, when this ant demon laid eggs, it needed a lot of food.

Fortunately, this village lacks everything. There is no shortage of straw.

The time of the Atlas had just passed the middle of summer, and it was harvest time, and the clearing around the village was filled with straw like hills.

Zhao Xiaopaw's strength has not fully recovered now, and he can't even use the magic power of sprinkling beans into soldiers, so all the heavy physical work has become the business of Zou Shuidong and Liao Bingqiang.

The straw was moved into a warehouse that had not yet been filled with grain. Cut all the pieces into minced pieces with a guillotine, stir with water, and leave for fermentation.

This step alone was enough to make Zou Shuidong and the two tired half to death, but fortunately, Zou Shuidong also learned to sprinkle beans into soldiers, grabbed a handful of beans and sprinkled them. More than 20 soldiers were conjured, and they worked together to cut straw and stir straw with water.

And Zou Shuidong and the two only need to check the fermentation of the straw from time to time.

There is no problem for the ant demon to eat straw, but if the fermentation is not in place, the ant demon will digest more slowly, which will invisibly slow down the speed of egg production.

After a busy day, all the preparations are done.

At this time, the smell coming from that warehouse made people frown. I almost wanted to vomit, and the floor of the warehouse was covered with a layer of fermented straw, a thick layer.

Zhao Xiaopaw was dragged over by Zou Shuidong. As soon as I walked to the door, I felt that the air inside was different, not only was it a little turbid, but the temperature was also a little high, giving people a feeling of urn smell.

I think it is also piled up with all kinds of straw that the entire village harvests in a year. After continuous fermentation, the heat emitted can be imagined.

But for Zhao Xiaopaw. The taste and temperature are nothing.

"Go ahead. ”

Zhao Xiaopaw slapped his left hand on his right arm, and then a black light rose from his right arm. In the blink of an eye, it flew into the warehouse.

Then there was a loud sound, it turned out that after the ant demon returned to its original form, the body length of more than 100 meters instantly pierced a large hole in the warehouse less than 30 meters long, and the small half of the body was in the warehouse, lying on the ground and devouring the fermented straw chips, and most of the belly penetrated out of the warehouse wall and fell outside.

Zhao Xiaopaw smiled bitterly, this is also a helpless thing, there is no place in the village that can accommodate the ant demon at all.

As the ant demon began to devour the food, the originally pure white long belly gradually became translucent, and Zhao Xiaopaw could even see the countless ant eggs that were constantly wriggling in the ant demon's stomach.

These eggs are located at the very front of the belly, only the size of a finger, and then slowly move backwards, each time they move, the eggs will increase in size, and by the time they move to the middle of the stomach, these eggs have become the size of a human head, and they look like a pearl rolling jade plate.

But when the ant egg moved to the middle, it never moved again, and the voice of the ant demon came at this time: "Master, I am hungry." ”

Hungry?

Zhao Xiaopaw turned his head and saw that the three-meter-thick straw near the ant demon's head had been eaten clean, but other than that, the nearby straw was not eaten by the ant demon due to the limitations of his body.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xiaopaw didn't dare to slack off, he knew that this ant demon couldn't fast when laying eggs, and once he fasted, the nutrition in his body couldn't keep up, and the eggs couldn't be laid.

"Up!"

Zhao Xiaopaw beckoned Zou Shuidong and the two hurriedly stepped forward, endured the unpleasant smell and burrowed into the warehouse, and used a shovel to send the broken straw into the ant demon's open mouth.

The ant demon's eating speed is very fast, and it is basically impossible for the three of Zhao Xiaoshu to rest, one shovel after another.

After being busy for a while, although Zhao Xiaopu and the others were not too tired, they were so stinky that in the end, Zhao Xiaozhu had to use the magic power of sprinkling beans into soldiers and threw out a handful of soybeans.

After a while, the smoke filled the air, and more than thirty soldiers in iron armor came out of the smoke, and when they came out, they did not speak, but grabbed the shovels that were placed on the ground, and began to work, as if the stench had not reached their nostrils at all.

With Zhao Xiaopaw's attainments in sprinkling beans into soldiers, he can only conjure up more than thirty ironclad soldiers at most, and the strength of these ironclad soldiers is probably stronger than that of ordinary humans.

If you use the strength standard of the other world to calculate, the strength of these ironclad soldiers may be similar to that of swordsmen.

For a Taoist boy like Zhao Xiaopaw, this is already very good.

With the ironclad soldiers doing things, Zhao Xiaopaw and the three of them immediately relaxed a lot. Out of the warehouse where the smell is unbearable.

After getting enough nutrients, the ant-demon's belly began to squirm again, and the eggs the size of a human head moved from the middle to the back, and continued to swell.

As the eggs move to the end of their abdomen, they swell from the size of a human head to the size of a dustpan.

Then the first eggs were expelled from the ant-demon's belly. Fell to the dirt with a thud.

Zhao Xiaopai's movements were the fastest, and he rushed over with one arrow step, carefully picking up the ant eggs from the ground.

"It's so soft. ”

After the ant eggs were acquired, Zhao Xiaopaw almost dropped them directly, and the ant eggs weighed about thirty catties and were in the form of rice. Translucent, the whole is soft and elastic, and the place where you start is like touching the smooth skin of a baby, which makes people feel a strange strange feeling.

This ant-demon after entering the state. The production of ant eggs is fast.

On average, an ant egg will be laid from the end of the abdomen in more than a minute, and two hours before and after, on the ground outside the warehouse, a hundred eggs will be laid crackling.

These eggs are piled up together, and under the light of the sky, they are crystal clear, scattering a silvery-white light. It looks extraordinarily exquisite, making people feel like they can't pick it up and put it down.

Two hours can lay a hundred eggs, then a day. Isn't it possible to have 1,200 eggs, 30,000 or 40,000 in a month? 450,000 in a year?

My dear, this is the rhythm of conquering the entire universe.

For a while, Zhao Xiaopaw was about to go crazy.

Similar to Zhao Xiaopaw is Zou Shuidong, who squatted on the ground and drooled while holding an ant egg.

The only thing that is better is that Liao Bingqiang is not completely caught in it. After looking at the piled up eggs happily, he patted Zhao Xiaopaw on the shoulder. Zhao Xiaopaw was taken aback.

"What?"

Zhao Xiaopaw put the egg that almost slipped in his hand on the egg pile, and asked a little angrily.

I said. Just let her give birth like this? Can we use up so many ants and monsters?"

Not to mention, Liao Bingqiang's direction of thinking about the problem is to be more comprehensive than others.

Before Zhao Xiaopaw could reply, Zou Shuidong laughed: "Old Liao, you are really worried, haven't you listened to those villagers? When Mingyang Immortal Venerable was here, this ant demon beast was hundreds of thousands of troops, and they could do everything to conquer cities, how many ants did we have?"

Listening to Liao Bingqiang's words, Zou Shuidong knew Liao Bingqiang's words, but there were only more than 100 ant eggs, and Zou Shuidong couldn't let this guy mix up a good thing.

Zou Shuidong also thought that he could form an army of ants and establish a brilliant career.

In fact, this matter is not Zhao Xiaopaw and the three of them have the final say at all, it didn't take long for the ant demon to lay the first two hundred ant eggs, the huge body shook for a while, and then a thick smoke came out, enveloping it inside, and not long after, a black light flew out of the warehouse and fell on Zhao Xiaopaw's arm and disappeared.

"What's wrong? Why did the ant-demon run back on your arm?"

Even Zou Shuidong, who was the most anxious about this matter, rushed into the warehouse when he saw the smoke rising, and it didn't take long for him to come out again, shouting anxiously.

Yelia said that the eggs were enough, and why they were enough, she didn't say. ”

After Zhao Xiaopaw asked the ant demon in his mind, he said helplessly.

"It's okay, let's hatch these eggs first. ”

Seeing Zou Shuidong, who was slightly depressed, Liao Bingqiang comforted.

That's all it can be now.

You must know that whether or not to lay eggs depends entirely on the ant demon Yelia herself, and it seems that Yelia, who thinks that Zhao Xiaopaw is the main one and has not reaped any benefits, is somewhat angry, so she dumps the stall and does not do it.

Zhao Xiaopaw could have forced the order, but he had a hunch that if this was the case, something not so good might happen, so he held back the idea.

"Let's take turns staying here. ”

In the end, Zhao Xiaozhu decided to take turns guarding the ants for four hours to prevent the eggs from being eaten by animals in the wilderness or washed away by a sudden rainstorm.

At night, the translucent eggs are full of ant-like larvae.

In the early morning of the third day, Zhao Xiaopu, who was guarding the warehouse, was a little surprised to find that the ant eggs piled together had moved.

At first, a few eggs at the top of the egg pile slowly swayed, when the shaking was strong enough. The ant eggs fell from the pile of ant eggs on their own, and Zhao Xiaopaw was worried that these ant eggs were broken, so he approached to check.

At this moment, the egg had burst, and a pure white young ant slowly crawled out of the broken egg. There was also some mucus on his body.

After fully emerging from the egg skin, the larvae still feel a little weak, but they are quickly able to stand up when the wind blows.

Zhao Xiaopaw touched the young ant with his hand, and his body was a little soft and elastic. The hard shell of the ant monster was completely missing.

After the wind blew for a while, the young ants eagerly burrowed into the warehouse and devoured the straw scraps spread on the ground in the warehouse.

To be honest, at this time, the straw crumbs are already fermented to the extreme, and before they get closer, they will smell a strange smell. There is a slight hint of wine.

With the birth of the first young ants, the egg pile is boiling, and the eggs fall one by one, and then break, and a soft young ant emerges from it.

The first thing these young ants do after birth is to blow the wind to dry the mucus on their bodies and make their bodies more elastic, and then they can't wait to burrow into the warehouse with the smell of straw. Enjoy your first meal since birth.

After all the ant eggs hatched successfully and the young ants were produced, Zou Shuidong came over to take over. Seeing that all the ant eggs hatched, he immediately went into the warehouse to check.

To be honest, Zou Shuidong can be called an ant fan now, he doesn't care about any weird smell, what he cares about is how long it will take for these young ants to grow into majestic ant monsters!

To say when these young ants are born. The limbs stretched out are about the size of half a person.

And after a binge meal in the warehouse, the bodies of these young ants have grown a lot. After that, he fell asleep on the ground, and his pure white body quickly hardened.

Next. The sleeping larvae struggled through their hardened and brittle shells, eventually emerging from the cage-turned shells and growing larger.

At this time, Zhao Xiaopaw understood the reason why Yelia no longer laid eggs.

In just two days, about a third of the large amount of straw scraps in the warehouse were swallowed by these young ants.

At this rate, the straw scraps spread on the warehouse floor are only enough for these young ants to grow into adult ants at most, but it is impossible to support more ants and monsters.

These larvae are so edible that they eat more than 10 times the amount of food they eat each day.

Think about it when Jia Kedao fed these ant demon beasts back then, he knew that at that time, he had eaten up a large area of forest and grassland, so that tens of thousands of ant demon beasts could fully grow.

If Zhao Xiaoshu and the three of them also raised so many ants and demon beasts, let alone such a village, even if they used the straw produced in dozens of nearby villages to feed, it would not be enough.

After two shedding of the shells, the larvae went to sleep for the last time.

After this slumber, the body of the young ant formed a cocoon chrysalis, which was still pure white.

But by the time these young ants broke out of the cocoon again, their bodies had turned pale yellow, and their size was completely similar to those ant monsters they had seen, but the shells were softer.

But these are not problems, after a while of the sun, the bodies of these ant monsters quickly changed from light yellow to dark yellow, and finally completely turned black, by this time, their shells were already extremely hard, no matter what point of view, they were exactly the same as those ant monsters.

At this time, these ants and demon beasts can be regarded as fully mature.

Whether it's for mounts or work, there's no problem.

And at this time, the food of these ants and monsters quickly decayed, and only one-twentieth of the food of the young ants was needed to make them work all day.

Of course, if it is used in combat, then the amount of food will also increase rapidly, after all, combat requires more energy than ordinary work.

Zou Shuidong, who had already heard the wind, excitedly chose an ant demon beast, tied the saddle he had prepared to the ant demon beast, and then rode on.

When Zou Shuidong was in Laojun Mountain, he chose a little weapon making technique, although he couldn't refine a more powerful magic weapon, but at least it wouldn't be too bad to make these ordinary tools, if he got it to the earth. This saddle is a work of art.

"Shuidong, give me a saddle!"

Zhao Xiaopaw saw that Zou Shuidong was driving ants and demon beasts and wanted to leave the village, so he hurriedly stopped him.

Neither Zhao Xiaopaw nor Liao Bingqiang has ever learned to make weapons, if this Zou Shuidong really leaves the village, he can't find anyone to keep it. It is impossible for Zhao Xiaopaw and the two of them to ride on the ant demon beast like this, they are not the Jia Kedao of the year, they are profound, and they can sit as stable as Mount Tai when they sit on their bare buttocks.

You must know that the shell of this ant is hard and smooth, even if it is bloody, it is impossible to get a little bit of it. If you don't have a saddle to fix your body, you'll probably fall to the ground as soon as the ants and monsters run.

Zou Shuidong smiled. took out two saddles from the Qiankun bag and threw them to Zhao Xiaopaw, and then drove the ants and demon beasts to rush towards the outside of the village, shouting loudly from time to time, startling the farmers who were busy turning over the grain in the yard, and they all probed out of the yard, and couldn't help laughing when they saw that it was Zou Shuidong.

They knew Zou Shuidong's desire for ants and monsters, and now they saw Zou Shuidong's excitement. I also rejoiced.

After all, Zhao Xiaoshu and the three of them got along well with the villagers, especially when they prepared a lot of ordinary medicine pills in their bags, and those villagers were sick. They'll send a few.

These villagers have great respect for the medicine man who can relieve their pain.

However, what made Zhao Xiaopaw and the others a little speechless was that the saddle made by Zou Shuidong was golden and extremely rich, isn't this the local tyrant gold.

But if you don't use this saddle. It is impossible for Zhao Xiaopu and the two to ride the ant demon beast.

Therefore, after laughing and scolding for a few sentences, Zhao Xiaopaw and Liao Bingqiang could only use this saddle.

Ants and monsters are well-behaved. Seeing Zhao Xiaopaw and the two approaching, he lay on the ground by himself. When Zhao Xiaopu and the two of them started to install the local tyrant gold saddle and ride it, the ant and demon beast slowly propped up their bodies, and flipped back two long tentacles and put them on Zhao Xiaozhu and the two.

As soon as this tentacle came up, Zhao Xiaopaw could feel the emotional changes of the ants.

This is the convenience of the ant monster, only need the tentacles on the body, then you can communicate with each other, the rider doesn't have to talk nonsense at all, and the ant monster can understand the meaning of the rider.

"Let's go!"

Although he didn't need to give a command, Zhao Xiaopu still couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, waved his hand, and commanded the ant demon beast.

As the ant demon beasts riding by Zhao Xiaopaw and the two began to move towards the outside of the village, the remaining ant demon beasts also got up and followed.

Zhao Xiaopu did not stop these ant demon beasts from following, for these ant demon beasts, Zhao Xiaopu, who has the breath of an ant demon on his body, is their master, if there is no order, they will spontaneously follow and protect.

The speed of the ant monster is indeed slower than that of the giant locust that can fly, even slower than the beetle in the middle of the charge.

But this is only for monsters, in fact, if the speed of ants and monsters crawling on the ground reaches the extreme, it can basically exceed two hundred kilometers per hour, which is basically the same as the speed of sports cars on the earth, or even more than some.

Even now, Zhao Xiaopaw did not give orders, and the ant demon beast was advancing at an ordinary speed, and its speed reached eighty kilometers per hour.

It is impossible for an ordinary car to run at this speed for a long time, and the police are staring at it.

In any case, after leaving the village on the ant beast, galloping on the wheat field that has been harvested is really a rare enjoyment and pleasure.

You know, unlike cars, ant monsters can maintain a high degree of stability when traveling, whether it is a ditch or an undulating field, they will not have too many bumps when crawling at high speed, and even Zhao Xiaopu can lie flat on the back of the ant monster and will not fall.

A few kilometers after leaving the village, the ubiquitous wheat fields disappear into the sight of a shrub-covered wilderness.

There are only more than 300 people in the village where Zhao Xiaozhu is located, although there are ants, giant locusts, beetles and even some other demon beasts to assist, but no matter how wide the field that can be cultivated, it is impossible to have no limit.

On average, each person cultivates more than 150 acres, and if children, women, and the elderly are removed, the area cultivated by each household is close to 1,000 acres.

In other words, the total area of cultivated land in the village where Zhao Xiaozu is located is about 60,000 mu.

That's not a small amount.

Every year, 70% of the grain produced in the village needs to be paid as a tax, and 30% is kept for itself.

The tithe tax rate has never been heard of on earth since ancient times, and from this point of view alone, the tax rate imposed by the Marquis of Terence can be described as cruel. (To be continued)
