Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

Chapter 346 Using Gu as Bait

Ten cents per person is equivalent to a day's salary.

After collecting the money, the two villagers looked happy and helped carry the body to the front hall.

The houses of poor people are very simple.

There are usually one main room and two rooms. The toilet often does not have a formal room. It is usually a hole dug at the back of the house and a hut built.

He Saixiang's house is slightly better than Qin Niu's old house.

After the body was taken away, the entire backyard became extremely quiet.

Except for Qin Niu who stayed by the well, no one stayed here anymore.

Everyone hid far away for fear of getting dirty.

This is exactly what Qin Niu wants.

The blood mist at the bottom of the well seemed to become more active, and it began to crawl toward the top of the well, but it appeared to be very cautious.

Qin Niu ducked to a distance, trying not to scare it.

Not long after, a dark red blood shadow emerged from the corner of the backyard at an extremely fast speed.

Qin Niu was secretly happy that the sub-gu had indeed arrived.

It can be considered as throwing yourself into a trap.

He was not in a hurry to arrest them, but wanted to see what would happen after they merged?

After the child Gu entered the well, it climbed directly onto the mother Gu, who carried it on its back.

The mother Gu climbed out of the well and moved quickly along the dark corner.

Qin Niu just observed their movements secretly and did not worry them.

However, in order to prevent losing track of the target, he sent two magic ants and three combat bees to track them by land and air.

The two blood spiders crawled through a mouse hole through the low wall of the backyard, and then headed northwest.

They don't seem to like sunlight very much.

Along the way, we will deliberately avoid brightly lit places and choose dark routes.

Qin Niu just followed from a distance, but wanted to see where they were going?

After about a meal, they actually climbed to the river.

Is this going to enter the river?

If I had known earlier, I should have brought the Diamond Ink Turtle here. If they enter the river, even though it is just a small river, Qin Niu will soon lose them.

If he did it now, his plan to use the Gu as bait would come to nothing.

While I was thinking about whether to take them down, I saw two blood spiders jumping off the river bank. They did not go into the water, but continued to move upstream.

From time to time, the female spider raised her two front paws and scratched the air twice.

Qin Niu discovered a very interesting phenomenon. Whenever the female spider raised its front paws, the male spider lying on her back would instinctively avoid it.

Spiders are different from termites, which rely on their antennae to detect odors.

Spiders have no antennae, only a pair of fangs.

Some spiders are not poisonous, and their teeth cannot be called poisonous fangs. Most spiders are venomous. They bite their prey and then inject neurotoxins, which can cause the prey to fall into a state close to paralysis.

Or it might be more appropriately called a 'vegetative' state.

Prey in this state will not die, but they will be unable to move and can only watch as the spider sucks out their body juices bit by bit.

So, theoretically, all spiders are venomous.

At most, it is less toxic.

There are also some highly venomous spiders that can directly kill people after biting them.

For example, red widow, six-eyed sand spider, funnel spider, black widow, etc.

Garden spiders are generally considered to have low or even non-venomous venom.

The spider's front jaw, also known as the 'teeth', is not actually a taste organ. What they actually use to sense the scent of prey is the down on their eight claws.

In particular, the nerves on the front paws are the most abundant, and the sense of smell and touch are extremely sensitive.

The female spider kept scratching the air with her front paws, probably trying to identify pheromones and scents to determine the direction.

Qin Niu didn't know exactly what was attracting it in front.

It crawled forward for twenty-four or five miles and entered a low-lying area before stopping. This place has long been beyond the boundaries of Daoyuan Village, and even beyond Yuxi Town.

It is at the intersection of a large river and a small river in Daoyuan Village.

There are willows, poplars, metasequoias and other trees growing on the river banks.

The place where the mother spider stopped was a huge willow tree.

But it’s not a weeping willow.

Its trunk diameter is estimated to be more than half a meter, and it looks very old.

Willow and locust trees gather in the shade.

Generally, people with a little knowledge of Feng Shui will not plant willows and locust trees in front of their homes.

If someone buries dead animals or even dead people under a willow or locust tree, it can easily create a dangerous place.

After the mother spider carried the daughter spider to the willow tree, it went directly into a tree hole in the tree pocket.

"Is there something in this tree hole that attracts it?"

Qin Niu waited outside for a while, but did not see the two blood spiders coming out again.

He decided to send a termite in to investigate.

Now the fourth child is devouring each other with the sub-gu and cannot use it.

Only other termites can be sent to perform this task.

Among the many termites, apart from the queen, the fourth one is the smartest. Qin Niu usually uses Laosi, and he uses it most satisfactorily.

"Go, you two go in and explore this tree hole."

Qin Niu released two termites. They never knew what to fear.

Carry out the master's orders unconditionally.

After two termites entered, they quickly escaped from inside.

"Master, there are several bugs inside!"

Their IQ is not as good as the fourth child, and their communication is far less efficient.

The expression is not very clear either.

"Are there more than two blood spiders?"

Qin Niu thought that the two Gus in Aunt Hua's daughter had long since disappeared, and they might have come here too.

The murderer behind the scenes feeds on people. In order not to expose his identity, he cannot stay by the victim woman's side.

After they die, the poison in their bodies will escape on their own. If they cannot be collected in time, they will be easily lost.

Choose a hidden location, let them gather together, and then wait until the time is right to remove the poison at night or when no one is around. In this way, you can be unaware of God and ghosts.

Qin Niu realized that this was probably a temporary gathering place for Gu set up by the Gu master.

"It's better to wait until the results of the devouring of the fourth child and that sub-gu are achieved before taking action."

He was not in a hurry to worry about the poison in the tree hole.

Instead, he chose a hidden location and waited in secret.

The fourth child's body surface was still covered by the blood cocoon formed by the blood mist, and he remained motionless.

Qin Niu didn't know exactly how long it would take to complete the devouring process.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't take too long to complete the devouring process. At most, one or two hours is enough.

The blood spider that was swallowed by it was a newly born baby Gu, and its abilities in all aspects were in an infant state.

The fourth child himself is a war demon ant, belonging to the alien species of heaven and earth. If he can't even deal with a young Gu, it would be too weak.

As time passed, Qin Niu sat on the tree. With the cover of the lush branches and leaves, even if someone passed by, it would be difficult to spot him.

He didn't wait.

He was already prepared to exterminate the poisonous insects in the tree hole at any time.
