The sound of "click, click, click" could be heard endlessly. Jiang Xiaobao looked at the gold-eating silkworms in the round-headed wheel and discovered a pattern. In addition to eating in batches, they also eat the golden spine in stages and gradually, not randomly. After chewing this section, go to the next section, and stop when only one-third of each section is left.
The whole process was done without fighting, coming and going in an orderly manner, eating and pulling at the same time.
The concave golden spine they saw in front was like this. It was originally convex like the back of a cow, but was chewed into a pig trough.
"Look at how they line up and eat in an orderly manner. They must be well-trained." Jiang Xiaobao said.
Fear flashed in Chen Mingzhi's eyes, "Is there anyone else here?" As soon as he said these words, Zhao Xixi couldn't help but become afraid. In this underground world, animals with eyes open and closed are not scary. It's people. Someone is training silkworms in the cracks of the grain. What purpose is it for? Is it related to tens of thousands of tons of gold?
Zhao Xixi looked around and found that there were no other people's footprints except their own on the silkworm sand.
There are no signs of human life either.
They continued to walk forward, because there were all gold-eating silkworms on the ground and they could not avoid them. They could only step on the silkworm sand and gold-eating silkworms.
At this time, Jiang Xiaobao discovered that there were extra large particles in the silkworm excrement, the size of a fist and the same shape as ordinary silkworm excrement.
Jiang Xiaobao understood, "They have silkworm kings, and they are huge."
After walking for about a kilometer, sure enough, two rectangular arrays appeared in front of them moving, neatly and uniformly, very spectacular.
They were more than curious and hurried up to check. They didn’t know what kind of creatures made up this array.
Zhao Xixi did not dare to step forward, so everyone stopped and watched from a distance. Because of the large number of gold-eating silkworms, some began to crawl onto their shoes and ankles.
Song Yijin was bold. He asked them to wait where they were while he took a closer look.
It turns out that this array is composed of gold-eating silkworms. They are arranged closely one by one, weaving into a 50 centimeter wide and one meter long insect carpet. On the insect carpet lies a huge gold-eating silkworm. Silkworm King.
This Silkworm King is sixty centimeters long, has thick adult calves, has a round head, is golden in color, and is motionless.
Song Yijin waved to the back and asked them to come up and check.
"This array is particularly interesting. I have seen ants build bridges for the ant team to pass, but I have never seen one hump the silkworm king in this way." Zhao Xixi was a little excited. This insect phenomenon is really It is rare to see.
What is even more bizarre is that the silkworm king is lying on the insect carpet, and there are worker silkworms on it one by one. They line up in an orderly manner and crawl up the insect carpet, climb to the tail of the silkworm king, and then climb up. Climb to the King of Silkworms and climb all the way to the top of the King of Silkworms' mouth. The golden paste comes out of the silkworms' mouth and flows into the King of Silkworms' mouth.
The mouth of this silkworm king has evolved into a funnel shape, and it only needs to open its mouthThat’s it, the lake above will naturally flow into it.
"These are the worker silkworms responsible for feeding the King of Silkworms, and the ones carrying the King of Silkworms are also worker silkworms." Zhao Xixi said, as if she saw something, she walked towards the array in front of the King of Silkworms. .

I saw all the baby silkworms lying on this array. They were all golden and varied in size. There were also many worker silkworms climbing up and down to feed the baby silkworms.
"Cousin, look." Jiang Xiaobao pointed to the tail of the King of Silkworms, which was giving birth to baby silkworms one by one. They were also round and milky white in color. As soon as the baby silkworms landed, worker silkworms came to take them away and sent them to the array of baby silkworms in front to be raised.
"This is so interesting, a bit like an ant colony, but different from an ant colony. The king of silkworms is responsible for commanding the team and giving birth to offspring, and the worker silkworms have a strict division of labor." As he spoke, Jiang Xiaobao felt that his It became difficult to move his legs. He subconsciously rolled up his pants and took a look, and was shocked.
Both legs were swollen and black.
"What is going on? Why is my leg swollen?" Jiang Xiaobao exclaimed, his fearful voice also startled Zhao Xixi in front, and she hurried back.
Song Yijin immediately lifted up Zhao Xixi's pants, his hands trembling. Zhao Xixi's legs were also swollen and black!
He immediately rolled up his trousers, the same thing.
I don’t know when it started to swell and I can’t feel it.
Where is Chen Mingzhi?
Jiang Xiaobao rolled up Chen Mingzhi's trouser legs and surprisingly found that his legs were not swollen, but there were holes in the skin of his ankles, indicating that he had also been bitten!
The three people stared at Chen Mingzhi, puzzled as to why his legs were swollen, and why Chen Mingzhi’s legs were not swollen? Then there is only one possibility.
"It's bitten by a golden silkworm!" Zhao Xixi said with a pale face. Immediately afterwards, she discovered that her arms began to turn black, changes that were visible to the naked eye.
Jiang Xiaobao’s arm has swollen to twice its size.
Song Yijin’s arm was not strange at this time.
"This silkworm excrement is poisonous. There is no feeling when biting people because their teeth contain anesthetic secretions." Zhao Xixi quickly regained her composure, "Go forward quickly and leave this place."
Since Chen Mingzhi had no feeling, he helped Jiang Xiaobao walk because Jiang Xiaobao's symptoms were the most severe and his neck was swollen at this time.
The four people were a little panicked. They didn't even avoid the two insect blankets in front of them, and directly stepped on the formation and deformed it.
However, it didn’t take long for the two arrays to return to their original state.
Song Yijin pulled Zhao Xixi and ran forward quickly. She was a little out of breath at this time, and walking quickly undoubtedly accelerated the blood flow.
