How can there be so many earthworms in such a garbage heap?

Ye Tian frowned slightly.

Then he looked around.

There seems to be a new discovery.

Hurriedly carried the stick and walked into the distance.

Walk out about 10 meters.

Ye Tian stopped.

Then excavate again.

But this time, I dug for a long time, and I didn't find any traces of earthworms.

"Brother Tian, what are you digging for?"

"Ryoko, take a closer look, what's the difference between the garbage at the gate of the warehouse and here?"

"Isn't it different? Why didn't I notice that it's all rubbish? ”

Zhang Liang paused, and then kept looking at both sides.

After a long while, he was slightly stunned.

Quickly ran back to the warehouse.

"Brother Tian, there seems to be a lot of dirt in the garbage here. Also, why are there so many earthworms? ”

Ye Tian smiled slightly. There seems to be a guess in my mind.

Lift your feet and walk outside.

After a while, the two returned to the farm.

Old man Lu had already taken the fish tank out again, and fed the little cockroaches in the fish tank, his face seemed to be very excited.

"Old man, you put those earthworms in the garbage heap behind the warehouse door?"

As soon as he entered the door, Ye Tian couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

Old man Lu raised his head and glanced at Ye Tian with some surprise: "Yes, you have discovered this." ”

"Old man, do you want to use earthworms to digest those corrupt substances?"

Ye Tian continued to ask.

The old man's face sank slightly: "I thought so at first, but it's difficult!" Although the characteristics of earthworms can convert putrid matter into soil, their transformation speed is only so fast, and I put at least hundreds of catties of earthworms on the small piece of ground at the entrance of the warehouse, but after so long, there is little effect. That's why I turned my attention to black soldier flies and maggots and cockroaches. I want to see if these species can be more powerful. ”

As he spoke, Old Man Lu couldn't help but look down at the fish tank, revealing a hint of emotion: "Speaking of species, Xiaoye, you really gave me a big surprise." These mutant little cockroaches are simply amazing, I tested them for an afternoon, and their feeding index actually reached 5. Do you know what this concept is, it's like a person who weighs 100 pounds and eats 500 pounds of something in one meal. Exactly five times, as far as I know, no other species in nature has ever reached such an astonishing index. And, their conversion rate is amazing enough. ”

"Conversion rate?" Ye Tian was a little puzzled.

"You can interpret it as growth rate, remember how big they were when you brought them, right? Now you see. ”

As he spoke, Old Man Lu gave up his position.

Ye Tian and the others looked inside.

His eyes widened slightly.

The largest batch of cockroaches, which used to be the same as mung beans, have now completely turned orange in color, with black stripes, and their bodies are about the size of fingernails. And the smaller batch also has the size of a pea.

It grows faster than when I was in the dormitory.

"Old man, how is this growing faster than when we raised it? It's only been half a day. ”

Ye Tian couldn't stop being surprised.

Old man Lu glanced at him angrily.

"I'm embarrassed to ask, is that what you call raising? Such a precious mutant breed is actually fed with garbage, but fortunately, the cockroaches resist the creation, otherwise if the feeding goes wrong, you will have no place to cry. In order to observe the data today, I used professional nutrients that really promote larval growth. That's why it has such an effect. It's a pity that there are only such cockroaches, otherwise I would have wanted to use some more effective means to do experiments. ”

Old man Lu said with some regret.

"Not enough cockroaches?"

Ye Tian's eyes rolled.

Old man Lu nodded.

"Yes, the study of insects, unlike other species, is difficult to draw really valid conclusions when the number is small. You're going to have two batches. There aren't many of them, so I really don't dare to mess around. ”

"In this case, it's easy to do, there are still a lot of unhatched egg sheaths in our bedroom, I'll bring them over tomorrow, old man, you study slowly!"

"And?"

The old man's face was happy: "What about the adult?" Do you have? ”

Imago......

Ye Tian hesitated for a moment and shook his head, after all, the characteristics behind the strong-grade cockroach were a bit obvious.

It's good to say that an expert like the old man really doesn't dare to show him at will.

"It's a pity, if there are still adults, maybe I can find out the reason for their mutation, and now I can only study them when these little cockroaches grow up."

After speaking, Old Man Lu didn't ask any more.

He turned his head again to observe the small cockroaches.

Ye Tian took Zhang Liang and turned his head to the garbage dump.

This time I had an extra bottle in my hand.

"Ryoko, help me dig up more earthworms."

"Earthworms? Brother Tian, do you want to do research again? ”

Thinking of the previous insect incense, Zhang Liang seemed to think of something, and his eyes lit up.

"Well, I feel that the old man's thinking is actually right, that is, in terms of species, there may be something lacking, so I want to study it while the farm has not been busy in the past few days, in case I can accidentally breed a mutant variety similar to the blade, maybe it can really work wonders."

Ye Tian nodded.

"Hey, that's a good note. Our dormitory is upstairs, and I don't believe that Brother Tian can still provoke earthworms upstairs. ”

Zhang Liang smiled and agreed.

I quickly found a wooden stick.

Dig up with Ye Tian where there is soil.

I have to say that the old man's handwriting is not small.

After a while, the bottle brought by Ye Tian was filled with dense earthworms.

And Ye Tian seemed to feel a little dissatisfied.

He lifted the box from the car again.

Put it in the open space.

Said hello to the blade in his pocket.

Moments later, the dump boiled straight ahead.

It is the easiest place to hide dirt and dirt.

The number of cockroaches here can be described as massive.

Less than ten minutes.

The box was directly burst.

The frightened Ye Tian quickly stopped the call of the blade.

Close the lid.

Zhang Liang was full of doubts.

"Brother Tian, why are you catching so many cockroaches?"

"This is not thinking that since we want to engage in breeding, prepare more, after all, relying on our mutant varieties alone, I don't know how long it will take to grow, and now I have time to prepare some ordinary, even if I don't expect them to reproduce the effect, at least, I can make up a number, and these ordinary cockroaches are used as food for mutated varieties, which is also very good. It's cleaner and more convenient than kitchen waste, isn't it? ”

"Damn, Brother Tian, you think far away, why didn't I think of it, look at it this way, this garbage dump is really not useless, at least, in terms of cockroach food, it can provide a stable channel."

Zhang Liang said a little excitedly.

"Well, wait for more research in the future, maybe there are other surprises waiting for us."

Ye Tian also nodded with a smile and lifted the box.

"Brother Tian, where are we going next?"

"Eat, I'm going to bleed a lot today, let's have a good meal, you have always invited me to eat, and I will also invite you to a big meal today."

Ye Tian glanced at the boxes full of cockroaches and said boldly.
