Qin Shiou looked carefully at these sneaky and fat insects. He didn''t recognize them at first, but suddenly remembered their identity. These things are ship maggots.


    Although the name disgusting is called maggots, in fact, they are not insects, but a kind of clam. They are close relatives with the clam loved by senior official Qin, and distant relatives with the gooseneck barnacle he loves more.


    From the appearance, they are no different from some worms. If you look at them with a magnifying glass, you can see that they actually have some thin white shells on their heads, which are hard. They use this shell to twist their bodies, turn themselves into small drills, and finally drill into wood.


    Boat maggots feed on wood. They choose a piece of wood from birth, then drill in, devour and digest wood, so as to survive successfully.


    There are many wood eating animals on the land, which are rare in the sea. Ship maggots are the only one so far, and this little thing can cause more than 10 billion damage to the world''s marine transportation industry every year!


    For example, in the summer of 2000, several docks in Maine collapsed inexplicably. The oak piles supporting the docks were 9 meters long and 25 cm thick. They were indestructible from the outside, but the inside was destroyed by ship maggots.


    Similar things have happened in Canada. In 1997, a pier at the southwest wharf of harjudicial Chek suddenly collapsed, and six people fell into the water. Later, the police investigated the cause of the accident and found that it was also a masterpiece of ship maggots.


    In this way, Qin Shiou had an idea. Why not cultivate a super boat maggot to disgust the Japanese?


    He didn''t know much about ship maggots, but he saw them by chance when reading books on marine biology. He knew that they were a kind of tough fishery pests.


    As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is a friend. The dolphin butcher near Tokyo Bay is his enemy, and the boat maggots are also the enemy of the dolphin butchers, so they can be friends?


    Qin Shiou vowed that boatman was the most disgusting friend in his life, but he was also the best friend who could help him now.


    However, he was still a stranger to his new friend, so he got up and searched the information. Thinking of a way to deal with those Bay butchers, senior official Qin was so excited that he couldn''t help laughing.


    Winnie slapped him and said with shame and anger, "Why are you restless? Lie down honestly. The massage has just begun... "


    Qin Shiou put out his hand to pick wini''s chin and said frivolously, "little lady, what are you doing in the back? Brother, I want to listen to music and play a flute now!"


    "There''s my daughter, virtue!" Winnie grabbed something and threw it at Qin Shiou. Brother Diao''s eyes in the air were filled with tears. Why did I always get hurt.


    Qin Shiou opened the computer and searched. He found these disgusting little basin friends. They are really disgusting! Moreover, it''s appropriate to use them for revenge. They can be called revenge experts!


    Boat maggots eat wood, or they eat cellulose, the main component of wood. Cellulose is a polymer of sugar molecules, which contains rich nutrients, but other marine organisms cannot digest wood because their bodies lack a substance: cellulase.


    This enzyme can open tightly locked sugar molecules, which is the basic condition for terrestrial animals to enjoy the nutrients in wood. Among marine organisms, only bacteria on ship maggots can secrete cellulase, so they have extraordinary ability to digest wood.


    In this way, the wood became a cake in their eyes, and a wooden ship sank; Again, a pier pillar collapsed; Continue to crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack crack!


    In addition, boat maggots are particularly ideal Avengers. They can only survive in wood. In the past, they can drift around the world with wooden boats. Now where there are wooden boats, they are all iron boats. In this way, no matter how powerful boat maggots Qin Shiou makes, it is impossible to flood.


    Unless someone foolishly takes the wood containing super maggots to other docks, or Poseidon energy transformed maggots can eat iron, they can''t leave Tokyo Bay.


    Just do it. After Qin Shiou sent the dolphins out of Tokyo Bay, he immediately mobilized the consciousness of the four sea gods and attacked everywhere to find the wood along the bay. There are ship maggots in these wood.


    Because of the different types of wood, the types and sizes of houseworms are also different. The small ones are only 2 cm to 3 cm long, while the large ones can grow to 1 meter. They are thick enough to have a baby''s arm, just like a snake!


    Regardless of the species, Qin Shiou found the boat maggot and input the sea god energy. This time, he paid a lot of money. He can output as much as he can, regardless of the cost.


    His purpose is only to make these ship maggots evolve and reproduce as soon as possible. As long as the super ship maggots reproduce, the Tokyo Bay will have to be renamed Tokyo Iron and steel Bay in the future.


    According to Qin Shiou''s investigation data, the breeding ability of ship maggots itself is very strong. It can lay eggs, producing about 5 million every year.


    After hatching, the larvae of ship maggots are very small and invisible to the naked eye, so they can''t detect their existence. When they find it wrong, the larvae of ship maggots often spread all over the whole area.


    After the larvae swim in the water for a stage, they begin to attach when they encounter wood. Their life is very happy. Wood can solve their food and accommodation problems together, and even eat and live together.


    As long as the larvae eat wood fiber, they will grow very fast. According to statistics, the boat maggot larvae can grow a hundred times in 16 days; It can grow a thousand times in 36 days, grow for about a month, reach sexual maturity, and then begin to lay eggs


    The more you know, the more Qin Shiou thinks this thing is terrible.


    What aliens, dinosaurs and blood parasites are not enough to see in front of this thing. As long as the size of ship maggots can be enlarged ten times, as long as they change their eating habits into meat, the end of the world will come immediately!


    Moreover, even if the Japanese find boat maggots in the future, they may have to catch them blind. It''s very difficult to deal with.


    First of all, they are parasitic in wood. In order to completely destroy them, we have to destroy all the surrounding wood, but is this possible?


    Secondly, shipworm larvae have tenacious vitality and cannot be killed by conventional methods. destroy by fire? No, they parasitize in the wood. Once the fire is lit, the wood will be finished. freezing? Yes, but how to freeze the wooden Wharf at low temperature?


    Even chemical methods are difficult to deal with ship maggots. Wood has become their protective shell. It is not easy to pass through wood and act on ship maggots.


    Now the widely used method is to inject chemicals into wood under high pressure. In seawater, these chemicals will be slowly released and then kill ship maggots.


    But just look, how expensive it is to deal with ship maggots in this way!


    The cost is not the main reason to limit the chemical method to remove ship maggots!
