Chapter 146 The so-called gold-eating ants
Gold-eating ant?
Everyone looked at each other, and Gao Li looked confused, and had never heard of this. Only Iron Hoof slapped: "Oh! I said why did this kind of trace appear on many iron ingots recently! I thought that the guys who were delivering the goods secretly gave us inferior iron ingots. Last time I scolded them! I didn't expect that they were gold-eating ants!"
"Gold-eating ant? What is that?" The Iron and Steel Officer asked Zheng Fei. As the Iron and Steel Officer, Zheng Fei was involved in such strange things. Since he said yes, it should be.
Zheng Fei said: "The gold-eating ant is a kind of demon ant, about an inch long and feeds on various minerals, especially those who like to eat iron ore. No matter what minerals are eaten, they will use those mineral metals as their own shells. Therefore, it is also possible that some gold-eating ants can gnaw iron tools."
Is it possible?
Gao Li widened his eyes. The gold-eating ant in front of him was eating the steel sword! Doesn’t that mean that this bastard’s teeth are stronger than the steel sword?
Could it be said!
Could it be said!
The teeth of this gold-eating ant are alloyed?
"How do you deal with them?" Tiexu hurriedly asked.
"It is difficult to deal with. The gold-eating ants themselves are demon ants, and they are very good at seeking profit and avoiding harm. They are not afraid of toxins, and generally poisons are ineffective against them. Especially their caves are generally very deep. If there are gold-eating ants here, there may be a queen who settles, which will be even more difficult to deal with." Zheng Fei said.
"Oh! What should I do? What should I do?" Iron hoof grabbed his horns.
"Unless, if a water pool is built here, the gold-eating ants are extremely heavy and are not good at crossing the water, so the gold-eating ants never approach the water source. It is okay to place the shelves in the center of the water pool." Zheng Fei said.
Iron hooves and a pair of huge cow eyes immediately appeared in front of Gao Li: "Boss! Brothers! Let's dig!"
Gao Li pondered for a moment, smiled slightly, and said, "This matter is not urgent. Masters of the government, let alone the gold-eating ants, are you satisfied with my steel swords?"
The two generals looked at each other, nodded, and said, "That's naturally satisfactory. Lizhuang's swords, guns, swords and halberds are of excellent quality, and all the soldiers are satisfied."
Gao Li smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I think it should be fine if I can satisfy the weapons of my soldiers in the future, right?"
This question was about the military official's eye. The official's eye nodded and said, "I originally thought that Lizhuang would not be able to supply weapons to the entire Wu Kingdom. But today I will be free of worries when I see that magic trick. When I go back, I will report this matter. After the General Office approved it, I can enter into a contract."
Gao Li was extremely excited when he saw the person away. However, the iron hooves grabbed his two horns and looked sad.
"Brother! Boss! Brother, I know this is a big deal, and it's time for you to be happy. If the edible gold ants are not eliminated, our business will be over! These guys ate a mine clean, causing the entire mine to collapse! Heavy casualties!"
It seems that the old cow knows the power of gold-eating ants.
"Brother, I have another plan for gold-eating ants. Let's not be anxious first. Let me see if my idea is correct." Gao Li said.
"Plan?" He has been hearing this word since he met Gao Li, and every time the word appears, there are surprises.
"Brother, there is no good way for anyone in the world to eat gold ants. Moreover, these little things are extremely cruel. If one is not lucky, he will even attract revenge." Tiexu said in a low voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by the gold ants.
"Don't worry, my plan is relatively simple. Those who do big things should be more harmonious." Gao Li smiled.
That night, Gao Li found Xiu'er and Chu Miaoyi. Gao Li needed to use Xiu'er's means to complete one thing to catch the gold-eating ants.
Xiu'er and Chu Miaoyi were not old and were curious about everything. When they heard about this task, they suddenly became energetic and temporarily gave up the experiment of spider silk and Immortal. Gao Li didn't even know that his actions temporarily saved Xiu'er's life in the experimental work shed.
Gao Li and the others were ambushing in the warehouse, and they were still next to those swords. There were so many weapons around, but this sword was eaten the most powerful, which means that there must be something special about this sword that can make the gold-eating ants fall in love with it. Gao Li was just waiting here, and Xiu'er's silk spiders were also waiting here.
It is not realistic to use human hands to catch ants, especially monster ants, and silk spiders are different. Although their spiders currently work as spinning, their instincts as hunters exist in genes. Gao Li's purpose is to use the hunting ability of these silk spiders to catch a batch of gold-eating ants back.
The gold-eating ant is a demon ant that can sense true energy. So they dare not get too close and can only wait for news from a distance. This kind of shriveled waiting is boring and boring, but there is no good way. After a while, Xiu'er's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "It's done!"
Sure enough, a silk spider ran back and dragged a spider silk ball. Not far away, I saw the spider silk ball constantly struggling.
Gao Li had already prepared a water prison. The silk spider ate the spider silk, and the gold-eating ant immediately fell into the middle of the water prison. The gold-eating ant could not fly, and there was water around him, so he could only circle around the center of the water prison. Gao Li, Xiu'er, and Chu Miaoyi met with each other and came to the water prison and stared at the huge gold-eating ant.
Under ar vision, the gold-eating ant emitted a slight true energy all over the body. Perhaps because it was too small, Gao Li could not see any structures such as the Qi Sea or Demon Pill, but just watched its whole body emit a slight light. Turning off the ar vision, the ant was silver all over, with a pair of big teeth glowing colorfully. This should be the original color of steel. Gao Li was very curious. After the gold-eating ant ate the metal, can it ensure that the metal is not oxidized? Can it isolate air and water vapor?
Perhaps because of being angry, the gold-eating ants began to bite the ground of the water prison, but the water prison was made of a white glaze plate, with smooth and hard glaze. The gold-eating ant's big teeth slid across the disk, leaving some traces, but that's all.
After a while, the silk spiders returned one after another, and more than 30 gold-eating ants were captured in total!
praise!
Gao Li decided to stop whenever he was better. Ant animals have a characteristic. If you force them to get angry, they will think that this place is not suitable for survival and overall relocation will affect Gao Li's plan.
With these more than 30 gold-eating ants, Gao Li immediately began his own experiment.
He must know how hard the teeth of these gold-eating ants are.
The water prison was replaced by a large one. Gao Li didn't dare to touch these guys who could bite off the cutting edge of the quenched steel and asked the silk spider to help transfer it. Then, in the water prison, Gao Li put down some steel sheets that had been prepared long ago. These are the things left by the workshop when conducting the experiment. Each steel sheet has a number, which means the label. The larger the number, the higher the hardness.
After putting down these steel sheets, the gold-eating ants only used their tentacles to communicate information with each other and did not touch them. After a long time, they seemed to realize that there was no threat, so they assigned tasks and went to different steel sheets. Immediately, Gao Li heard a series of extremely small metals being broken by pliers.
Gao Li stared at one of them carefully because the gold-eating ant was eating the tallest steel sheet.
With a light click, the gold-eating ant's big teeth nipped off a piece of debris. In Gao Li's sight, the gold-eating ant did not use any true energy at all! In other words, this guy actually bit off with his own strength and the strength of his teeth! Its teeth were not damaged at all!
Soon, all the gold-eating ants completed the first round of tasting. Then, they gathered together, touching each other's tentacles, exchanging information. Then, they walked straight to one of the steel pieces!
There is only one piece of steel! This piece of steel is neither the highest-ranked nor the lowest-ranked. It is a medium-high position!
It turns out that these gold-eating ants have their favorite marks?
The steel sheet marking basically corresponds to the carbon content, which seems to determine the taste of the gold-eating ant?
After the gold-eating ants bit off the metal, Gao Li thought that they dissolved the metal through things like acetic acid. However, Gao Li saw that the true energy surged in the head of the gold-eating ants, and the metal fragments also disintegrated. Accompanied by the true energy, it deposited on the bones of the gold-eating ants!
The three of them stared for a while, their eyes were sore and their faces were full of tears, but they were extremely excited.
Being able to cut off the steel plate means that the hardness is far greater than that of steel, which means that the teeth of the gold-eating ant may be of some kind of alloy! It may even be the bones of the whole body! Since that's the case...
Why not melt these gold-eating ants!
Oh, I'm so angry, I really want to find an ant nest to raise a nest by myself! Maybe the future alloy gameplay will depend on these little things!
Chapter completed!
