The protagonist lay down in his small room for a long time. How long is it? There are no Jiazi in the mountains, and there is no sun or moon in the ant nest. The half-awake protagonist cannot feel the changes of day and night, and has no way to calculate the passage of time.

The protagonist only knows that he is lying on the soft silk bed, his whole body is sore and he has lost his strength. But in his mind, his thoughts were like a violent storm, ravaging the already tense and fragile nerves. For a moment, it was like a piece of paper wiped by an eraser. My mind was completely blank, with only a trace of unerased traces showing the remaining thoughts.

The protagonist has absolutely no idea what he should be thinking or thinking about. Just let your brain run on its own.

After a while, the scene of being chased by a mantis came to mind again. This time he was not so lucky to escape. He watched his torso, limbs and wings being torn to pieces by the mantis's green sickle and chewing mouthparts. His internal organs and tissue fluid were The yellow ground was swayed wildly, and a famous painting called Killing was splashed out.

After a while, the memories of the human period came to my mind from the closed corner of my heart, "Ah! Yes, it turns out that I died for her. I am so unwilling to do so. No wonder I made a wish to be reborn before closing my eyes, even if I become The ants don’t care either.”

For a while, every scene of the short few days after becoming an ant was replayed in my mind, from fear, to hesitation, to resignation. Why should I accept my fate? Even if I am born as an ant, I still want to live well. .

After a while, it seemed that he had become the vision of God. His soul floated upward, passing through the ceiling of the two-bedroom apartment, through the thick layer of mixed black and yellow soil, and through the grass with swaying lavender flowers. Ah, these flowers grow on the top of the grass. As the protagonist of the ant, he went to the ground twice and never raised his head to pay attention to these small and beautiful flowers.

Then, the protagonist's soul flew over the top of the huge poplar tree and reached the height of the white clouds. The entire ground rolled southward rapidly, and the scenery on the surface was covered with frost at a speed visible to the naked eye. Pieces of white snowflakes appeared in an instant, and in an instant, the entire world was covered with a thick white coat. The whole world seems to be only white.

No, not just white. Black lines emerged from the thick snow from the far north. These black lines were alive, twisting and stirring like disgusting wireworms that had found their prey. Countless lines of life intertwined, grew, and spread on the snow-white land. The entire snowfield seemed to be torn apart by these rapidly multiplying black lines.

These intertwined grids of black lines go all the way south, and any place covered by ice and snow will be divided by these black lines. The black line burrowed under the snow layer again, and came out again after a while. Every time it drilled in and out, the black line became thicker and longer.

The protagonist's soul floating in mid-air is trying to take a closer look at what these black lines are. Suddenly, a spinning feeling came over, just like a video being played backwards. The protagonist's soul continued to fall rapidly along the path it came from, until it penetrated the thick soil and smashed into the original body. .

When the protagonist came back to his senses, the scene in front of him turned into the dark mud walls of his room again.

On the side, Hua Mulan carefully grasped the translucent drop of water with her large talons, trying hard to get closer to the protagonist, but she was afraid to get too close.

The protagonist lay here in deep thought for the past few days, completely ignoring his subordinates and not eating or drinking. The conscientious Hua Mulan would always come over with a piece of liquid in her mouth from time to time and feed it to the protagonist to drink, so as to prevent the protagonist from collapsing due to fatigue, hunger and thirst.

The protagonist's thoughts were in chaos before, and he had no memory of what he drank. But now, after finishing the dream about flying, white snow and black lines, the protagonist felt as if he broke out in a cold sweat and was blown by a cold wind, and suddenly regained his energy.

The feeling of extreme hunger and thirst in his belly burned his nerves. When he saw the liquid droplet in Hua Mulan's mouth, which glowed seductively under the light of fluorescent bacteria, the protagonist's mouth watered.

The protagonist still couldn't accept the mouth-to-mouth feeding method, so he carefully picked up the liquid droplets with his jaws and drank it in one gulp. A fragrant and pleasant smell goes straight into the mind, which is very effective in dispelling the feeling of hunger and thirst.

This is the good thing about being an ant. Because of its small size, it can carry a lot of liquids with its mouth. The membrane tension on the surface of the liquid gives the protagonist a different drinking experience from that of humans.

As for the drop of sweet liquid, the protagonist still doesn’t know that it is honeydew secreted by aphids. Otherwise, if it is known that these drinks are actually made by aphids, the protagonist's mysophobia will attack again. Although human beings are very artificial creatures, and they seem to have different paranoia about excrement, such as cow belly, baby eggs, rabbit pellet intestines, gold grain meals, etc., the protagonist is precisely the one who is insensitive to these metabolites. A class of people.

The protagonist suddenly felt that there was something more in the bedroom. Yes, it was fluorescent bacteria. There were many fluorescent bacteria. Some were shining brightly, and some were already as dim as smoldering charcoal. So many fluorescent bacteria made the light in the cave dim. It is already brighter than other places in the ant nest, and is comparable to the brightness of a classroom. When did these fluorescent bacteria appear in the bedroom? The protagonist has no memory. Did he have them just when he came in a few days ago, or did they grow out in the past few days?

Regardless of these trivial details, the protagonist found that there seemed to be something more in his heart. These things cannot be described in words, and they have no actual appearance, but these things allow the protagonist to get rid of the state of soul separation a little bit after losing his soul, and regain the ability to live a normal life. This kind of thing seems to be a sense of responsibility, and the current world urgently needs his sense of responsibility.

Why do you feel this way? The main character is very confused.

Well, at least, let me live well now, not be eaten, and live like a human being. The protagonist suddenly feels complacent.

At this time, a slight pain came from the abdomen, and the protagonist felt the first... shit... that he had traveled through.
