Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

After diligent identification, he left disappointed.

No golden cicada with special abilities was found. I don’t know if his identification skills are not strong enough or there are too few golden cicadas with special abilities.

Qin Niu may be used to the fact that termites can develop special abilities, so he feels that special bugs are not difficult to find.

In fact, it is extremely difficult to obtain a bug with special abilities, even an ant.

It is precisely because of their rarity that special bugs are very expensive.

It is an eternal law that things are rare and valuable.

After walking more than a hundred meters away from the road, he encountered another big tree with many empty golden cicada shells hanging on it.

This is a poplar tree.

It is even bigger than the elm tree. On the tree, you can see the empty shells left after the cicada pupae shed their shells.

"It seems that this area must be the cicada's nest."

Qin Niu secretly remembered this location, and he could come here if he wanted to catch cicadas in the future.

Cicadas like plum trees, poplar trees, elm trees, persimmon trees and other tall trees.

These trees are not only tall, but also have rough bark, which helps them stabilize their bodies during the pupal stage.

If nothing unexpected happens, as long as late at night, there will definitely be a large number of cicada pupae emerging from the ground and then climbing up the trees. Within an hour or two, it completes its shelling, emergence, and then flutters its wings and flies away.

Almost all bugs will try to find a suitable place to breed and lay their eggs.

The trees around here generally have thick branches, which is an ideal place for them to lay their eggs.

In addition, there are large elms and poplars that are suitable for cicada pupae to shell out, making it even more popular for them.

The mountains were too dangerous late at night, and he did not dare to enter the mountains at night.

At this moment, we can only dig around to find cicada pupae.

Not all of them are concentrated around this poplar tree, but there are more here.

He dug out each cicada pupa hidden in the ground, and then carefully identified it.

Hard work pays off.

He actually dug out a very large cicada pupa.

When it struggles, it is particularly powerful.

After Qin Niu identified it, he thought that its cry was at least louder than other male cicadas.

Immediately put it into a small homemade cage.

This is a homemade cage he made after his insect catching skills were upgraded to the proficient level.

Can trap most bugs.

Including highly poisonous centipedes, scorpions, and spiders.

And it's like a small room, with each one closed one by one, so you don't have to worry about them fighting.

Since it is just a temporary cage, it is small in size.

It is also convenient to carry.

After closing the cicada, he continued to dig around.

Soon I found another cicada pupa in good condition.

However, its body is round, a bit short, and the tip of its abdomen is oval. At first glance, it looks like a female cicada.

Its struggling power is also very powerful, and the patterns on its pupa's abdomen are slightly more complex than those of ordinary cicadas. You can see that there is an obvious curved line on its second abdominal segment.

This also means that its body structure is more complex.

"Two special golden cicadas were caught in this small area, and they were probably from a brood."

Qin Niu thought to himself.

According to his understanding, a female cicada can lay more than 300 eggs, and even more powerful ones can lay 700 or 800 eggs.

But they don't lay their eggs in one place.

To avoid being completely wiped out in the event of an unexpected incident.

Generally, they will lay thirty or fifty eggs on a branch, and then fly to other branches to continue laying eggs.

Not putting eggs in one basket is not only understood by humans, but also by golden cicadas.

He dug for a while, but couldn't find the cicada pupa that made his eyes light up.

Seeing how it was getting late, he didn't dare to delay any longer.

Quickly collect the two trophies and release all the other cicada pupae dug out. Then he hurried to Binshulin to drag the remaining ten Binmu trees.

"Maverick, let's go!"

Qin Niu greeted the calf that was playing in the distance.

It is like a curious baby, always likes to raise its head, pick up its feet, and nibble on those tender leaves.

And they don’t eat the same kind of leaves, but all kinds of leaves.

I'm really worried that it will be poisoned if eaten randomly.

Many leaves and grasses in the mountains are poisonous.

Qin Niu knows no less than thirty kinds. Some will cause diarrhea after eating them, some will make you feel dizzy and nauseated when smelling their floral fragrance, and some will feel itchy all over after eating them.

"Moo~!"

The calf ran towards him with joy.

Suddenly, its body stopped motionless, and then it raised its ears to listen for movement.

His eyes seemed very serious.

Qin Niu's heart moved slightly when he saw its expression. Could it be that a ferocious beast was coming?

This is a good thing.

He now has the third level of cultivation as a mortal, and has a sword in his hand. He dares to fight even a tiger.

"Ang~!"

The calf barked in one direction, which sounded a bit like a demonstration or to embolden itself.

The firewood parted, and a large wild boar with a pointed head emerged.

It hummed, as if it wanted to humiliate someone.

Look at its body length of more than two and a half meters, its body is as strong as a door panel, and its weight is probably more than 500 kilograms.

Under normal circumstances, wild boars seldom move alone, but stay in groups and come out to look for food at night.

Evening is also a good time for them to come out and look for food.

At this time, some small bugs and small animals come out of the nest, and they will eat them directly when they find them.

Wild boars are omnivores, and in addition to eating roots and stems of crops, they also like to eat small animals such as insects.

For such a big wild boar, its two tusks look like two sharp daggers, which is unavoidable and frightening.

It has a thick layer of rosin on its body.

It's like wearing a piece of armor.

Qin Niu licked his lips. Such a big wild boar could be eaten for many days if it was slaughtered.

Maverick confronts it.

It lowered its head and sniffed around while approaching the calf.

Qin Niu quietly took out the sword and stared at the big wild boar that was getting closer and closer.

As a result, the wild boar seemed to sense the danger and turned around and ran away.

This made Qin Niu, who was ready to eat pork, a little dumbfounded.

Isn’t it said that wild boars are very aggressive and are not even afraid of tigers and wolves?

Why do you feel that it is as timid as a mouse?

"Maverick, let's go!"

He put away his sword and did not chase the wild boar.

You can't catch up even if you want to.

In the mountains, the escape speed of wild beasts is simply not comparable to that of humans.

At least with his current level of cultivation, he definitely wouldn't be able to catch up.

"It might be a good idea to use the calf as bait in the future to trick the beasts lurking in the dark into showing themselves."

Qin Niu was somewhat inspired by this incident.

The calf felt the malicious gaze of its owner, and was so frightened that it swung its tail and made low sounds.

He tied ten pieces of binmu into two bundles, tried to hold one bundle with one hand, and then trudged forward in the mountain.

…

When we returned to the village, it was already getting dark.

When he passed by Mr. Wang's door, he faintly heard Wang Wanyan's crying coming from the second floor.

It's small, but it sounds very sad.

Rich Wang wanted her to marry a powerful man, but she probably disagreed. But I couldn't disobey my parents' orders, so I could only cry helplessly.

This is a family matter, and Qin Niu, an outsider, has no way of getting involved.

Wang Wanyan treats him kindly, and if he can help her, he will definitely help her with all his strength.

"Uncle Wang is really like this. He loves his daughter so much. Now, in order to cling to the powerful, he ignores his daughter's objections and insists on going all the way. He is already fifty, even if he becomes that Mr. Lu. My father-in-law, how long can he be famous?"

Qin Niu shook his head, feeling helpless.

He built a cowshed in the yard and covered it with weeds. The calf now had a comfortable nest.

After entering the house, he found that the captured male cicada pupa was lying motionless.

I tried shaking the cage, but it still wouldn't move.

With his insect identification skills, he could tell at a glance that the male cicada was not dead.

It should be about to emerge from its pupa, take off its shell, and emerge into an adult locust.

Qin Niu looked forward to it for a while.

When he passed by Wang Fu's house just now, he heard Wang Wanyan crying and felt very uncomfortable.

He couldn't help but feel a little more urgent about improving his strength.

As long as he has strong strength, he can help her at critical moments.

Even changed Wang Furen's decision.
