Wizard, I have a different world
Chapter 218: Earth-eating Fat Silkworms and Flower Boats in the Void City
John came to the core area of the inner city and bowed respectfully to the place where Envoy Bowen once lived.
He said:
"Envoy Karl, I'm here."
"Come in!"
"Yes."
John answered, pushed open the stone door that seemed a bit heavy for him, and came to Karl who was sitting cross-legged on the stone platform.
Some dust was floating in the empty room.
Take a closer look.
The dust was like a vortex and a galaxy, circling in the air in an orderly manner, and occasionally falling to the ground.
This is...
John's eyes moved slightly:
'Divine stone powder! '
'I heard from Uncle Chim in the mine that the divine stones mined from the mine in the past half month have been ground into stone powder. Is it for Envoy Karl to use? '
"How is the breeding technique going?"
The question brought John back to his senses.
"Reply to the envoy."
He said in a muffled voice:
"I have already entered the stage, but I don't have the fleshworms to experiment with, so I don't know to what extent."
"Hehe..." Carl chuckled:
"You are very smart. If you hadn't given the fleshworms to your sweetheart at that time, I'm afraid you would have succeeded long ago."
"Forget it!"
Waving his hand, he waved his sleeves and threw something:
"This is the soil-eating fat silkworm that I have improved. It uses the genes of fleshworms, queen ants and several other creatures."
"You won't understand even if I tell you. Try to raise it well."
"This is the method!"
Carl pointed his finger, and a stream of light sank into John's forehead, turning into some operating experience and instilling it into his memory.
"Hmm!"
John only felt his head sink, like a wooden hammer hitting his head, and his body leaned back involuntarily.
When he recovered, he suddenly had some more knowledge in his mind.
This is...
What a magical method!
"Yes."
After calming down, he nodded heavily:
"I will definitely raise it well."
Xucheng is currently in a state of severe food shortage. All the fleshworms born by the mother worms are chopped up and mixed with mud to share.
Even with the enhanced digestive ability of the people in Xucheng, it is impossible to extract nutrients from the soil.
Eating soil,
just makes people feel full.
The soil-eating fat silkworm is the size of a palm. According to the experience transmitted by Carl, this creature is very delicate.
It must survive in a specific temperature and humidity environment, and its movement speed is terribly slow.
So...
Someone must prepare food for it.
Fortunately, just like its name, the staple food of the soil-eating fat silkworm is soil.
The soil-eating fat silkworm, which is now in its larval stage, needs to eat fine soil after sieving. The fine soil is mixed with water and stirred into a certain proportion of mud and water, which is its food.
Holding the 'soil-eating fat silkworm', John quickly came to the cultivation room in the city and adjusted the humidity and temperature.
Add water and mud again, and pour it carefully into the nest.
"Gululu..."
Bullyed by the bubbles in the muddy water, the white and pink fat silkworm rolled over and quickly shrank its body.
It has no mouth.
There are many tiny holes on the skin of its body, like mouthparts, swallowing muddy water.
Soon.
Half of the prepared muddy water was swallowed by it.
"What a big appetite!"
John was not surprised but happy. A good appetite means it is healthy, and in just a short moment, the fat silkworm's body has grown a circle.
In the next few days, John took care of the fat silkworm without sleep, not daring to be negligent.
One day.
The fat silkworm, which was already the size of a human head, gently moved its body, and a layer of gelatinous substance appeared on its body surface.
"Meat glue!"
John's eyes lit up.
This layer of gelatinous substance is a nutrient that can be taken by humans, and is called meat glue by Carl.
Carefully scraping off the meat glue, the first collection actually harvested a full bowl.
"According to the knowledge in my mind, a mature soil-eating fat silkworm can secrete meat glue four times a day, that is, four bowls, which is enough to provide more than a dozen people with the energy needed for survival for a day."
"And its size will grow larger in the future, and the meat glue production will be higher."
John scraped out some meat glue with his fingers and put it in his mouth, tasting it carefully for a moment, and then slowly said:
"It has a little meat taste, no wonder it is called meat glue."
A few days later.
With sufficient mud and water supply, the soil-eating fat silkworm grew bigger as if it was blown up, and now it is comparable to a two-year-old baby.
Each time, the meat glue scraped out is as much as twenty bowls!
Although it is far from being able to supply the entire Xucheng people, it is already comparable to the cultivated meat worms.
"Half a month."
John held a carving knife in his hand and wrote on the slate:
"For the first three to four days, you need someone to watch it all the time, and it does not produce gelatin."
"This is the larval stage."
"The mature stage is seven to eight days. During this period, its body size expands rapidly, and the gelatin production also increases greatly."
"Next..."
"It's the decline period!"
Looking at the fat earth-eating silkworm in front of him, John's eyes flashed with complex emotions.
Ten days of uninterrupted care from morning to night, he has some feelings for this thing.
But he knows.
The decline period of the fat earth-eating silkworm comes quickly, and its short lifespan is the fundamental reason why it is free from mutation.
The once plump and pink skin has now become rough and tight, and no longer produces gelatin.
"Puff!"
Suddenly.
A crack appeared on the surface of the skin and flesh of the fat earth-eating silkworm, and then as if it was deflated, the fat and round fat earth-eating silkworm began to collapse inward, and its body was even broken and scattered.
John did not wallow in his sadness. He gathered his energy and peeled away the flesh of the corpse of the soil-eating silkworm, and carefully picked up three small larvae from it.
The newly born soil-eating silkworms are only a few circles larger than ants, and may even be ignored if you don't look carefully.
Three days later.
The soil-eating silkworm once again reached the appearance he took over from Karl.
It's just that the newly born soil-eating silkworms were too delicate. Even though John took good care of them, one of them died.
Four more days.
Begins to secrete colloid.
Ten days later
Two soil-eating silkworms died, leaving five offspring. This time John gained experience and survived four of them.
…………
John walked out of the breeding room. The long period of not sleeping made him mentally exhausted and his feet felt shaky.
He stood at the door in a daze for a long time before slowly coming back to his senses.
He rubbed his somewhat swollen head and walked towards the reservoir.
"Mr. John!"
"John!"
"..."
Along the way, the residents of the city greeted him one after another with enthusiasm, and some were even flattering.
The food supply in Xucheng has been sufficient recently, and they all see whose contribution it is.
Except for the Archangel Karl,
It's John!
"Jo!"
"Aunt Enpei!"
"Hello."
John really enjoyed everyone's attitude towards him. He smiled and waved hello to everyone, which lifted his tired spirit.
"Hey!"
"Yo!"
"Do it again!"
Shouting sounded from the front.
John's eyes lit up and he walked over quickly.
"Abe!"
He nodded to someone present:
"Is this going to build another reservoir?"
"yes."
Abe is tall and has a simple face. He grinned and nodded:
"Including this reservoir, there are five reservoirs in the city, and several more will be built in the future."
“Then drinking water will no longer be a problem.”
"Okay!" John rubbed his hands together with excitement on his face:
"Very good!"
"I wonder if we can build one near my breeding room. As you know, soil-eating silkworms have a great need for water."
"That's next." Abe said:
"Uncle McGinn said that your breeding room needs to be expanded, and it will most likely be moved to another location."
"We will build the reservoir after we have determined the location."
"Really?" John grinned, with a smile on his face:
"With water and food, we can survive even if we don't leave Xu City."
"Yes!" Abe nodded, looking towards the core of Xu City, his eyes full of admiration:
"It's all a gift from the Divine Envoy Karl!"
"Um."
John nodded heavily.
He is now extremely grateful that he met Karl in the wild, otherwise Xucheng would not be what it is today.
Not to mention soil-eating silkworms, they are now able to stably provide the daily nutrients needed by the people in the city.
And the reservoir...
In the past, you could only spend a lot of money to let others build it. Now, Archangel Carl has taught you how to build it.
The new water reservoir has better water storage effect and is more convenient than before.
"Look!"
At this time, someone suddenly looked up towards the sky, stretched out his hand, and showed excitement on his face:
"It's a flower boat!"
"Moving the flower boats of Xucheng, they are coming to us."
Flower boat?
John's heart moved.
He heard from the old people in the city that in this world, there is a type of virtual city that can move in the air.
There are women in the virtual cities. They will go to each virtual city and exchange the women on the boats for resources.
The last time a flower boat came to Xucheng was more than 20 years ago, and there was no John at that time.
"I heard that women in Hua Chuan can get pregnant easily, and they have a way to compress the pregnancy period to less than three months."
"Their offspring are also healthier."
Someone muttered:
"Will Hua Chuan make a deal with us?"
