Chapter 119 Chapter 119 The power of sample pyrethrum. ...
Liu Mengmeng took her to see a plant that was almost extinct.
"I found this in my professor's notes. It records the growth cycle of this plant. Look here, it specifically states that this plant can hunt small animals."
"hiss."
The picture shows a shell-like plant with two shells opening and closing like a mouth, and a thin leg of an animal species between the sharp teeth.
It looks both bloody and beautiful.
Ning Hanzhu recognized it at a glance, "Isn't this a Venus flytrap?"
The Venus flytrap is known as nature's carnivorous plant.
Liu Mengmeng's eyes lit up. "Flytrap, can it really kill Zerg?"
Ning Hanzhu hesitated. "This plant can indeed kill insects, but its hunting mechanism is quite complex. As for whether it can kill flying insects, it's hard to say."
Putting aside the size difference between the two, her experience handling the winged insects revealed that their shells were exceptionally thick and difficult to pry open even with a knife. "Cultivating this type of plant takes a long time, and it also depends on the size of the two."
When Liu Mengmeng heard this, the light in her eyes dimmed.
"We can carry out cultivation simultaneously. If the Venus flytrap can really kill one or two Zerg species, planting them on every planet will serve as a deterrent."
"And it looks like it has a very distinctive appearance."
Ning Hanzhu turned around and found Xu Yuqing had followed her without her knowing. Of course, she thought to herself, the Venus flytrap is also a symbol of love and beauty. "Qingqing's method is good too. It can't help me now, but maybe it will be able to help me later."
After all, it's the interstellar age. The Zerg can grow as big as a house, and this Venus flytrap might be able to do it too. By then, it might really feel like Plants vs. Zerg.
Ning Hanzhu was about to put down the information Liu Mengmeng had given her when she swiped her finger and the page jumped to the plant collection below. It was a white and yellow flower. The familiarity of the flower made her pupils tremble. "Hey, wait a minute, do we still have this plant?"
Liu Mengmeng glanced at it and said, "I think so. I remember the professor complained before, saying that such a weak plant is particularly popular with the people on the planet..."
"Weak?"
Ning Hanzhu's mouth twitched.
"Think carefully about which planet grows this pyrethrum."
She remembered that insecticide was extracted from this pyrethrum, and that this chrysanthemum was insect-killing from top to bottom. Ning Hanzhu thought that the best way to kill insects was to use poison gas to paralyze the insects.
Otherwise, if they want to break their defenses, they will have to pay a heavy price.
If we have insecticide, spraying it on the Zerg will make them lose their fighting ability, and those insects that dare to invade the planet will never return. The king insect's front legs contain toxins, so why can't they use poison?
Just fighting poison with poison.
Xu Yuqing saw that she suddenly became happy, "Why, can this plant restrain the Zerg?"
Ning Hanzhu said, "Yes, we can extract their liquid to kill insects, but I don't know how effective it will be on flying insects."
Xu Yuqing understood. She walked outside and turned on her computer. After a few minutes, she came back and said, "I've already asked someone to do this, but they need experimental samples."
That's easy.
Ning Hanzhu patted his chest and promised, "I'll send it to you soon."
Catching the queen bug might be a little more difficult, but catching the flying wing bug is relatively easy for her.
…
"There are enough flying insects to eat. There is no need to take risks and move forward."
"They're useful, not for eating. This time, we have to catch two alive. No, the more the better."
“…”
Lou Cheng looked at her suspiciously. "Why don't you go accompany Miss Yuqing and actually want to capture the flying winged insect alive? You'd better not tell me this is a special hobby between you two."
Who would bother to catch a live flying winged insect?
On the battlefield, they always think about how to kill those Zergs.
Special hobby?
Ning Hanzhu muttered quietly, "People with evil hearts think evil things."
Lou Cheng, "!?? What do you mean? Why do I feel like you're slandering me?"
Ning Hanzhu ran away as soon as he finished saying this, "Are you going or not?"
"go."
The two of them were going to the Zerg territory to catch live Zergs, which was no less terrifying than sending their heads directly. Xu Yanan's first reaction was to refuse. Even after Ning Hanzhu brought Xu Yuqing out, she still refused.
"Don't joke. Even if you capture an Overlord alive, going there now is no different from committing suicide."
“…”
Ning Hanzhu hadn't expected Xu Yanan to be so insistent. Even bringing up Xu Yuqing was useless, so she had no choice but to whisper the truth. "We've discovered something that can kill the Zerg, but we lack samples, so we need living Zerg to see if it can paralyze them or kill them directly."
If the effect of pyrethrum is still the same as she remembered, then the dream of driving the Zerg back to their lair is not impossible.
This piece of news was as powerful as a particle cannon, shocking everyone present.
Xu Yanan was so shocked that she couldn't sit still, "Really?"
Then she thought of Xu Yuqing's involvement and said, "It must be true."
Lou Cheng was also shocked. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought you suddenly wanted to cook live food."
Ning Hanzhu, "...get out."
Is she the kind of person who can't tell right from wrong?
Xu Yanan paced back and forth excitedly, many questions swirling in her mind, but she didn't know which one to ask. "Well, you take my scout team with you. They are very good at finding insect traces."
Ning Hanzhu agreed.
The people I work with are old acquaintances.
Fang Qin brought a team to meet the two men, and his first words were, "You have to listen to me on this trip."
Ning Hanzhu didn't want to lead the team at all, and it was a blessing that someone took the lead. Lou Cheng didn't care, because he would act on his own when the time came anyway.
"Listen, listen, our main goal is to capture a few flying winged insects alive. We won't do anything unnecessary."
Fang Qin looked suspicious, "You'd better."
Originally, Lou Cheng was considered a troublemaker, but now, the two troublemakers have come together.
Ning Hanzhu gave Lou Cheng a look, and the latter gave her a helpless look in return. Fang Qin's eyes twitched when he saw the two of them having ulterior motives.
A group of people set off in a low-key manner and began to move towards the place where the enemy insects flew from. Every hundred meters, Fang Qin would lead people to search around. At first, Ning Hanzhu didn't know what she was searching for, but later she found out that they were looking for the Zerg's feces.
Ning Hanzhu, "..."
It's very professional.
Fortunately, she only stayed in the scout team for one day.
The journey was smooth and they did not encounter any large-scale Zerg attacks. On the contrary, they encountered a few lone flying winged insects.
Fang Qin suspected that this was a spy sent by the Zerg, so he made a gesture and took action.
Ning Hanzhu and Lou Cheng rushed out like two cheetahs, one of them holding a huge thick rope in his hand. Ning Hanzhu jumped and stepped on Fei Yi Chong's arched front paws, leaping onto its back.
He quickly and fiercely chopped off the thin layer of wings behind it, and then tore the other one into pieces.
Seeing how efficient she was, Lou Cheng took a break from his busy schedule and gave her a thumbs up.
On the other side, Fang Qin's team was not so successful in catching the flying winged insects. Perhaps it was their first time doing this, and they were in a panic even though they were working in a group of several people.
"Fuck, it's too lively, it's hard to tie it with a rope."
"Go around, go around."
The two of them tied up one each, while Fang Qin was frantically directing the attack. One of the animals tried to fly away, but Ning Hanzhu and Lou Cheng tacitly stopped it with a rope, and then cut off its wings and legs.
The last group of people dragged six flying insects back to the camp.
"Oh my god, Ning Hanzhu has captured six more flying winged insects alive. Let's go and take a look."
"Is this true?"
"Aba, are you going to make a new dish tonight?"
"Don't say that, my mouth is already watering."
…
But to their disappointment, Ning Hanzhu not only did not make insect dishes today, she also had to take a leave of absence to serve her girlfriend.
A group of people gathered around the flying winged insects, and many of them threw things at them.
If Fang Qin hadn't stopped her, she would have had no doubt that someone was secretly preparing to kill these six flying insects.
"Where should we keep these flying insects? We can't just leave them like this forever."
"Don't worry, Qingqing has already arranged a place for them and hired someone to look after them."
Such important supplies must be well taken care of.
Ning Hanzhu's arm was slightly injured, so she simply treated it and said, "Then I'll leave first."
Xu Yanan rubbed her hands nervously. She was someone who usually ignored Ning Hanzhu, but suddenly she was following behind Ning Hanzhu. Ning Hanzhu glanced at her, and Xu Yanan tried to put on a kind smile. "Go and keep Qingqing company. Has she told me, uh, if she has any plans for the next few days? Do you need me to send someone over?"
Ning Hanzhu pretended to think for a long time, frowning in embarrassment, "It seems that it is not necessary. Qingqing has her own arrangements."
Xu Yanan's breath was stuck in her throat, unable to go up or down.
Ning Hanzhu saw her face was like an overturned palette, sometimes blue, sometimes white, and she couldn't help laughing, "But I think I heard Qingqing say that after this war is over and we return to the capital planet, we can have a meal together or something-"
Xu Yanan's eyes flashed with light, "Really? Did Qingqing really say that?"
Ning Hanzhu touched his chin and thought, "Is that right? If I heard correctly, that's what you meant."
Xu Yanan jumped up and down excitedly. After she finished, she found Ning Hanzhu still standing in front of her. She immediately put her hands behind her back and sternly drove her away. "Go away. Don't keep Qingqing waiting too long. I'll give you two days off. Spend some time with her."
Ning Hanzhu smiled, "Okay, I'll be leaving then."
The six flying winged insects were useful. Ning Hanzhu took out the flying winged insects he had stockpiled and made a spicy insect meat stew. He added a lot of the ingredients that Xu Yuqing liked to eat. Even the aroma attracted a lot of people to watch. Ning Hanzhu was worried that his girlfriend would be shy, so he closed the door with an apologetic smile. "This is your first time eating insects. Are you used to it?"
Xu Yuqing had wanted to try it when he watched the video before, "I'll try it."
She took a small piece and tried two bites. Her eyes lit up as she ate. "I never thought insect meat would become a delicacy one day. I will promote it vigorously when I get back. I think more people will be interested in killing insects."
