"Let me go, do fireflies actually have so many cows?"
Bai Zhi didn't believe it.
"If you don't believe it, it only shows that you are ignorant..." Mo Lian said lightly, "You can search on Baidu now to see if what I said is true!"
"This ghost place is at least a few hundred meters underground. Where can I get a cell phone signal?" Bai Zhi said depressedly.
"Don't interrupt, let Mo Lian continue." Jiang Zhonglou glared at Bai Zhi.
"oh..."
Bai Zhi lowered her head.
"Insects' tactile communication is easier to understand. You should have seen ants use their antennae to communicate with each other. If an ant finds food, it will use its antennae to tell other ants that they can move together..."
Mo Lian continued to explain: "The most mysterious way of communication among insects is chemical signal communication, also called pheromone communication...
Pheromone is a chemical substance released by individual animals, which can cause behavioral and physiological reactions in individuals of the same or different species. It can also be understood as a pheromone...
Among all the communication methods of insects, pheromone communication can be said to be dominant and very important!
Pheromones can help insects courtship, aggregation, individual recognition, tracking, alarm...
For example, if an ant finds food, it will leave pheromones on its way back. In this way, its companions will follow the guidance of the pheromones and find food...
For insects that live in strict hierarchical colonies such as termites and bees, the queen ant or bee queen will continuously secrete a class-regulating pheromone, which will inhibit the ovarian development of other worker ants or worker bees. In this way, it is impossible to regenerate a queen bee or queen ant.
...
But when the queen bee or ant queen dies, without this class control pheromone, the worker bees or worker ants will give birth to new queen bees and queen ants, and continue to reproduce...
More importantly, this magical chemical pheromone is spread through the air or some mysterious medium, and can spread over a large area...
For example, when an aphid is attacked, it will quickly release pheromones to warn surrounding aphids...
For another example, after a queen bee is attacked, she will secrete a wide range of pheromones, causing all her people to protect her...
If the hive is destroyed and the queen finds a new place to build the hive, all the worker bees will find a new home based on the queen's pheromones...
So, pheromones are the extremely mysterious and precise language of insects!”
"Let me go...are those little bees and ants really as powerful as you say?" Bai Zhi was dumbfounded.
"If you don't believe it, you can Baidu..."
Mo Lian continued: "Scientists have long been studying the chemical information exchange by insects using pheromones...
Some scientists artificially create pheromones for certain female insects, and then attract the male insects to kill them, thus achieving the effect of extermination...
There are also some agriculturalists who release large amounts of special pheromones next to a plant that needs pollination, which can attract countless insects to pollinate the plants...
Over time, even if agriculturalists no longer release pheromones, those insects will follow their memory and come to that plant to collect nectar and pollinate...
This shows that insects have certain cognitive abilities. They can form memories and copy some behaviors through learning and training...
So I suspect that the reason why these Silver Spirits were able to gather together to form that magical statue of a golden helmeted god is probably because someone trained them!"
"this..."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
"Sister Mo Lian, we all understand what you are saying, but... it is too mysterious to train so many silver spirits to form a flawless golden-armored statue, isn't it?" Su Ye sighed.
.
"Yes, that golden-armored statue will attack us! In comparison, I believe even more that these silver spirits are really the ancient demon gods!" Bai Zhi said.
"There are hundreds of millions of these Silver Spirits. Controlling and training them is not an easy task!"
Jiang Zhonglou also felt that Mo Lian's explanation was a bit far-fetched.
"The Mo family can build such a magical underground Mo city under the Chongming Island and train a group of silver spirits. What's the difficulty?"
Mo Lian said: "Insects that live in groups, relying on pheromones or other mysterious connections, are actually a whole...
Just like a colony of tens of thousands of ants, they never block the roads in the ant nest, and they all work efficiently and in an orderly manner...
However, our human science and technology civilization is so advanced, but there are traffic jams in every city, how dare you underestimate the coordination ability of insects?"
"this..."
Everyone was stunned.
"Since this kind of silver spirit child is an extremely rare species, they must have something special, and they are probably suitable for group training..."
Mo Lian continued: "I guess the Mo family may have discovered this group of silver spirits somewhere, and brought them to this underground Mo city to train them to become the patron saints here...
As long as someone kills a silver spirit child, it will release a special pheromone alarm...
All the memories in the Yin Lingzi genes will be awakened, and then, according to the training back then, they will gather into idols and attack all creatures around the dead Yin Lingzi...
Just now Su Ye kicked the dead Silver Spirit into the lake, and the pheromones on it disappeared, so all the Silver Spirits returned to their old disordered appearance..."
"Well...that makes sense..."
Jiang Chonglou was convinced by Mo Lian's explanation, and he couldn't help but think of the mysterious ancient Shu civilization.
Through sacrifice, they obtained some mysterious civilization and ability!
If the Mo family inherited the civilization of the ancient Shu Kingdom and trained a group of magical silver spirits to form a statue, it wouldn't be difficult...
"I'm afraid the civilization mastered by the Mohists is not something we can understand. No matter how bizarre things happen, they are still reasonable!" Jiang Chonglou sighed.
"Yes, the existence of this underground Mo city is not incredible in the first place!" Mo Lian sighed.
"No matter what you say, I still can't believe that these Yinlingzi were trained to make that golden-armored god statue!" Bai Zhi was still unconvinced.
"Actually, if you ask me to train these silver spirits, I can easily make them spell out any image!"
Mo Lian looked at the star-like Yin Lingzi in the sky and said.
"What? You can also train these silver spirits? What kind of pheromones are you using?" Bai Zhi asked in surprise.
"No, my way is simpler!"
Mo Lian said: "I will implant a chip into Yin Lingzi's body when they are still pupae, so that when Yin Lingzi grows up, it will become a robot insect...
By controlling their nervous systems, I can control all their actions. They are equivalent to drones one by one...
Then, I only need to write a program on the computer to let Yin Lingzi spell out any image I want!"
"This...is this too high-tech?"
Bai Zhi was even more surprised: "Are you trying to trick us?"
