Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

Unlike the nuptial flight of ants and termites, there are three ways for bees to produce queens.

One is that the queen bee feels that she is old and wants to find a new queen bee to replace her. She will give birth to a fully developed female bee and feed her with royal jelly since she was a child. Another way is that as the bee colony continues to grow and there is a need to divide into groups, the queen bee will also breed new queen bees.

The last one is more special.

The queen bee dies before she has time to breed new queen bees, or she is attacked by an enemy and the queen bee dies unexpectedly.

At this time, the bee colony accidentally loses its king. When conditions are suitable, the bee colony can use the young larvae of suitable-age worker bees to quickly build a king's platform and raise the king again.

What will happen if the urgent attempt to build the throne fails?

That's a bit miserable.

Incompletely developed worker bees can also lay eggs, but they can only lay drones, and the entire colony will perish.

There is a certain limit on the number of bugs that a bug master can capture.

This has something to do with the insect master's mental strength. However, compared with animal trainers, insect masters have a clear advantage in the number of pets they can tame.

Most animal trainers can only tame one pet because their mental strength is not strong enough.

The more powerful a pet is, the higher the mental requirements for the trainer will be when it is subdued.

If one has weak mental strength, the success rate of conquering powerful beasts such as wolves, tigers, and bears will be horribly low. Moreover, a beast tamer with stronger mental power can often only tame a powerful pet.

If there are more, the failure rate of conquering will increase significantly, and they will not be able to support them.

Raising a wolf seems very nice, but the meat it needs every day is enough to bankrupt a wealthy family like Wang Furen.

The Changchun function that Qin Niu cultivates improves his mental strength, which is a great advantage.

It is still only the first realm, mainly nourishing Qi and blood and strengthening the physical body. Even so, he could still feel the increase in spiritual power.

If you practice to the second level, the improvement in mental power will be extremely terrifying.

Therefore, he hardly has to worry about conquering too many bugs and not having enough mental power.

Also, the cost of raising bugs is extremely low.

Raising that nest of termites costs almost nothing to keep.

Raising another hive of bees will cost almost nothing if you continue to keep them free.

He keeps bees for a different purpose than the Green Goblin.

The Green Goblin keeps bees to avenge blood feud, while he keeps bees mainly to seek immortality.

Bees are important media for plant pollination.

If he can cultivate special varieties of bee colonies, it can in turn help him improve his planting skills. You can even order bees to collect some special pollen to make honey, which is honey a hundred times more precious than royal jelly.

He had read in the book that a certain insect master relied on this to make a fortune, and was even able to enter the sect in the end.

In addition, bee swarms can do a lot of things because they have good flying abilities.

Such as warning, reporting, and air raids.

Qin Niu observed the swarm of bees ten meters away from the hive.

There is a particularly magical phenomenon. There are so many bees coming in and out, but none of them fly into the area covered by the ancient banyan tree.

It is said that everything in heaven and earth has spirituality, and it is true.

They are clearly on the edge of the ancient banyan tree, but they regard the area covered by the ancient banyan tree as a forbidden area.

The termites entered under the banyan tree and successfully rescued Qin Niu.

I wonder if the bees can come out if they go in?

After observing for a while, he took out the Green Demon Bee Breeding Book and studied it.

Read the book a hundred times, and its meaning will appear by itself.

The bee breeding instructions left by the Green Goblin before his death contained many fantastic ideas, all of which have been verified through experiments.

This is extremely valuable beekeeping experience, which can save Qin Niu from many detours.

You can even draw inferences from one example and use it as a reference when cultivating other bugs.

This stay in the mountains lasted nearly a whole day.

He kept secretly observing the swarms, but did not approach them. If you get close now, the bees will come out immediately and sting him like a pig's head.

After staying for a whole day, in addition to learning a lot of knowledge from beekeeping scriptures, I also learned to distinguish the sounds made by bees.

He is learning bee language.

He didn't expect to learn it in one day, so he planned to continue coming here tomorrow.

With fairly good strength, the common wild wolves, bears, and wild boars in the mountains should not be able to threaten his safety. If you really dare to come, you will most likely give Qin Niu extra food.

As for whether the tiger can be defeated, this has not been tried.

With the sword in his hand and his cultivation level approaching level 80 of a mortal, he really dared to fight a tiger.

It was getting late, and the ancient banyan tree looked particularly eerie. He no longer stayed, but began to collect humus, preparing to carry a basket down the mountain and continue to harm Wang Haikun.

He wanted Master Kun to be afraid when he saw his humus soil in the future.

Want to buy fertilizer without spending money? Then there is only this special fertilizer. It is guaranteed to turn yellow after use and no grains will be collected.

Wow, what a big spider.

When Qin Niu was collecting humus, he found a brightly colored spider. The green and white markings are intertwined and are about the size of an adult's thumb.

Maybe at dusk, they start to come out to guard the net and look for food.

You can see that the white spider silk it spits out is very thick and strong.

Ordinary flying insects will surely die if they land on the net.

This spider is almost as thick as an adult's thumb, not counting its eight long legs.

Spiders in the mountains are generally poisonous.

Some are so poisonous that a bite can even kill someone.

While he was observing the spider, a pollen-gathering bee scurried over.

This bee may not yet have advanced pollen collection skills, and there is still only a small amount of pollen in the flower basket on its hind legs.

Even though it was almost dusk, it was still waving the tentacles on its head to search for flowers.

They have a natural talent for detecting floral scents.

The faint fragrance of flowers can be detected from miles away.

boom!

It was a bit unlucky that it didn't notice the 'Bagua Array' set up by this spider at all. Hit it head on.

Qin Niu secretly thought that was bad. This bee looked very light in color. It was obviously a pink and tender new handmade bee with little experience.

Not only are his pollen collecting skills terrible, but he also has little experience in outdoor adventures.

Such a big spider was hanging on the web, and it turned a blind eye.

It's fine now, I got entangled and hung up on the Internet.

The big spider caught a big catch right after he started working, but he was very happy.

It immediately crawls over to give the prey a death coil or spider kiss.

Spiders hunt very cautiously, and they judge the strength of their prey based on the force with which it hits the web and the strength of its struggle.

If a powerful prey is caught, they will wait patiently.

Also, as long as there is sufficient energy in the spider's silk sac, the webs they weave will be at least double threaded.

Some powerful spiders have not one, but more than seven threads pulled out from their tails. You know, some scientists have passed tests and found that the strength of spider silk exceeds that of special steel wire.

Moreover, in terms of corrosion resistance and elasticity, it is even better than special steel wire.

It pulls out seven threads at a time to form one thread. You can imagine how terrifying the spider threads are.

It is unclear how many threads this spider pulls out at a time, but it is usually at least two, one of which can also be called their safety rope.

After all, you are working at high altitudes, and you will always slip and fall.

With a 'safety rope' attached, you can avoid falling accidents at critical moments.

This is why they can crawl back along the spider silk immediately after falling.

He always wears a safety rope on his body.

This poor novice bee is about to die under the poisonous kiss of the big spider.

As long as it is bitten by it and the spider venom is injected into the body, the bee is basically hopeless.

Qin Niu took action. He had already been planning to kill the spider and feed it to termites, so that it would not do evil again before it died.

Use a small stick to gently pick it up and get it to the ground.

Before it could escape, the medicine hoe flattened its head.

Its eight long legs struggled a few times, slowly closed up, and then stopped moving.

After Qin Niu confirmed that it was dead, he collected it into a small jar. I will take them over to feed the termites later.

I fed them four centipedes, now for a change, feed them a poisonous spider to see if I can help increase their toxicity.

The bee didn't know that it had met a noble person and was saved.

It was thrown into a desperate struggle of terror.

It's just that the spider web is very sticky, and the more you struggle, the tighter it will become.

Qin Niu was not in a hurry to rescue it, but listened carefully to its buzzing sound.

This is a very rapid, very low sound of flapping wings.

It should be in a panic at this moment, with its two tentacles swinging wildly and its six legs struggling desperately. It's a pity that trying to break the spider silk with its strength is a complete dream.

Is this a distress signal to the swarm?

Qin Niu carefully compared it with the buzzing of other bees he had heard before.

I saw it struggling for a while and then stopped moving.

Is this lying down?

After a while, it began to struggle again, making that rapid, low buzzing sound again.

And it was even more urgent than last time.

I heard that low-frequency sounds can travel farther.

It seems that it has worked hard to find a companion to save it.

[You understand bee language, and your insect language skill proficiency +10. 】

He was stunned for a moment, then a happy surprise smile appeared on his face.

He was still thinking of coming back tomorrow to continue listening to the sounds made by the bees, but unexpectedly, a small accident allowed him to initially understand the language of bees.
