Chapter 207 The Bug That Doesn't Exist
I asked Cai Bin on the phone, what is insects eating graves.

Cai Bin said: "As the name suggests, the insects devoured the graves to the silkworms, and the countless grave mounds near the ant ditch all turned into honeycombs. Go check it out."

I said "OK", and then Cai Ying said: "You don't need to come to Sichuan, I don't have any information for you here, I will send the address to your mobile phone, and then you go directly to northern Shaanxi go."

After hanging up the phone, Cai Bin sent me an address.

Nangong and I didn't go back to Cuidi Chunxiao, but went directly to the airport to buy a plane ticket to Xi'an, and we arrived in Xi'an that night.

We rested here for one night, and the next morning we found a car and took us directly to Ant Valley in northern Shaanxi.

When we arrived here, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon. After paying the taxi driver, he asked us if we need to wait for us here.

We don't know how many days it will take for this case, so I told the master no need, and he just drove away.

After the taxi left, Nangong Jie and I entered the village together. We came this time as insect research experts. We used this identity when we followed Tian Sihan in a case in Xiangxi, so the terminology matter, We know the way.

We went directly to the head of this village, and when we heard that we were here to study the "Insects Eating Graves", he immediately said happily: "The superiors sent people here. Not long ago, those insects were just to ruin the graves. Now Those bugs got worse and started to bite some old houses that no one lives in, and several old yards in the village have become honeycombed."

The village chief's surname is Pan, and his name is Pan Jinliang. We directly call him Village Chief Pan.

While introducing the situation in the village, Village Chief Pan will lead us to see those broken houses that have been bitten by insects.

On the way there, I asked Village Chief Pan what those bugs looked like and if anyone had seen them.

Village head Pan shook his head and said, "That's really not the case. Those houses turned into honeycombs overnight. No one saw how the bugs bit, and those bugs left after biting, leaving nothing behind. Traces, sometimes I feel that they are haunted, not bitten by insects, by the way, aren’t you two experts in studying insects, tell me, what insects can make holes in stones? This is too powerful!”

I said: "There are probably more than 1000 million species of insects in this world, and some of them can make holes in stones. However, I can't remember all the names of more than 1000 million species of insects. I can only tell you after checking the information, now we are going to look at the things that the bugs have bitten, and then collect some samples for analysis."

Village head Pan also nodded and said: "Anyway, you are experts, and you have the final say on the matter here. Recently, those insects have started eating houses. Everyone in the village is panic-stricken. They are afraid that if those insects that can break stones bite people But what to do, so you better find out quickly, otherwise many people in this village will go out to escape."

As we talked, we came to an old stone house. The main body of the house is made of stone, and the courtyard walls are made of adobe. It slowly turned into mud, so the remaining section of the wall became a low mound.

Even on that mound, there are countless holes the size of a little finger, each of which is round and very neat, as if someone had pierced it out one by one with a round stick.

It doesn't matter if there are those wormholes on the mound, the houses built of stones are also covered with those fine holes, and many holes go directly through the middle of the stones.

Seeing that the dilapidated houses were full of small holes, I suddenly felt that these houses had a sci-fi flavor.

Looking at these houses, I found that these holes are definitely not simply worm-eaten, because each wormhole has a yin energy left. These worms carry such a heavy yin energy, it seems that they are not clean things.

And thinking about the graves they went to the silkworms to eat first, so I think they are even more evil.

Seeing that Nangong and I were not talking, Village Chief Pan said, "I was shocked. I was also shocked when I first saw the situation here. I even went to the town to buy a lot of insecticides. We sprayed our house with insecticide or something, we just built a new house last year, so we don’t want to be bitten like this.”

"In addition, some people in the village have taken their children to live with relatives, because they are afraid of being bitten by the insects they have never seen before."

"That's why I said, if you don't figure it out, everyone in the village will run away."

Then I said: "Don't worry, since we came to investigate, we will definitely find out the problem, and then solve the problem of those bugs."

Then Village Chief Pan led us around the village again, and a few houses also turned into honeycombs. It was strange to say that those stones were bitten into holes one after another, but there was not a single house. The house collapsed, it seems that those insects are still very particular about their mouths, they know where to bite, and where absolutely not to bite.

After visiting the village, we went to look at the tombs in the countryside outside the village. All the tombs in the village had turned into a honeycomb shape, and no one was spared. Some people tried to find new graves for their ancestors , but the new grave has just been repaired, and it will be eaten by moths the next day, so everyone feels that it is better not to waste effort until the bug problem is solved.

After turning around in a circle, we didn't find much except for the strong Yin Qi.

When I returned to the village in the evening, I asked the village chief if he could arrange a place for us, and the village chief directly arranged us in his home.

There are only him and his wife in his family. They have a child. They just went to the south this year for college, and they will not be able to come back until winter vacation.

Therefore, Nangong Xiong and I stayed at the village head's house for the time being.

After dinner, Nangong Yuzhang and I went out with flashlights to investigate. Village Chief Pan probably worried that something might happen at night, so he didn't follow us. When we went, he also advised us: "I think you should investigate during the day. It’s safe, those houses are all eaten by moths at night, which means that those insects are active at night, you have encountered those insects in the past now, and you were bitten by those insects!”

Nangong Xiong said: "Because the insects are active at night, we have to go there at night, otherwise we will catch them."

I also said: "Mr. Pan, don't worry, we are experts."

After leaving here, we first went to see some old houses in the village that were infested with moths. We also met a few villagers along the way. During the day, when the village chief led us around, everyone in the village saw Nangong Xie and me It's too late, so after saying hello, everyone didn't suspect us.

Soon we arrived at the first house we went to during the day, and at night, the yin energy here became even stronger, and the yin energy came out from the wormholes, as if it was a spray of yin energy of.

I used a flashlight to illuminate those wormholes, and found that many of the holes were connected. The beam of the flashlight passed through the holes in the wall, and irradiated beams of light one after another in the room. The scene was even more sci-fi.

But I gradually discovered that when all the light beams interweave indoors, those combined light beams slowly form a huge light-shaped bug.

The worm was like a silkworm chrysalis.

It's just that the light beam of our flashlight is limited after all, and what we see is only a part of the bug.

what's going on.

At this moment, the sky that was originally covered with dark clouds suddenly became clear, and those dark clouds were blown away by gusts of cold wind!
The moon slowly appeared in the sky, it is now November [-]th, the moon is already very round, and it is still very bright, the moonlight shines into the house through the hole in the roof, and the huge light-shaped silkworm chrysalis becomes extraordinarily beautiful. clear.

It is in a transparent beam cocoon, it seems to be sleeping.

When I was a child, I saw other people raising silkworms. After the silkworms made cocoons, they turned into chrysalis with a slightly harder shell.

And under the moonlight, the silkworm chrysalis made of beams intertwined seemed to be alive. As the moon shifted in the sky, the pointed head of the silkworm chrysalis would twist a few times.

They seem to be alive, not just images formed by the interweaving of light beams.

At this time, Nangong Xiong also said beside him: "The bug seems to be alive..."

It seems that I am not the only one who feels this way, Nangong Xie also feels it.

I was a little surprised: "Have you seen this kind of bug in the form of interlaced light in the books of the upper realm?"

Nangong Xie shook his head and said, "I've never seen this before. We have to investigate all the situations by ourselves."

I nodded with a "hmm", and Nangong Yuzhang continued: "Let's take advantage of the moonlight to go to other houses and some graves to see if there will be similar cocoons and silkworm chrysalis over there."

I nodded.

Then, we discovered that there were also silkworm cocoons in several other abandoned houses in this village, but the size of those silkworm cocoons was much smaller, only about one-fifth of the first silkworm chrysalis we saw.

Why do rooms of the same size reflect different sizes of silkworm chrysalis?

When I asked Nangong Yuzhang, she said, "It must be because the structure is different when the holes are bitten."

I said: "I don't mean that, I mean, could it be like this, we saw a huge silkworm chrysalis, could it be the king of these small silkworm chrysalis, these are its subordinates, if so... "

Nangong Xiong took my words and said, "Can silkworm chrysalis hatch from the images refracted by those beams of light?"
