Chapter 49 (Additional updates for follow-up reading)
Long Bai dug out a layer of the drainage outlet of the pond at the foot of the mountain, controlled the water level to drop by about 20 centimeters, and exposed the silt layer on the shore.
Cheap narrow-leaf rice seeds are scattered freely.
The Jade Butterfly lotus seeds are worth a little bit, but Baiwei is only willing to give away 10 of them. Open the seed coat, soak the seeds, and then throw them into the shallow water on the shore after they germinate.
Sowing rice and lotus flowers is just to attract plant-eating insects and indirectly attract frogs to accompany Qian Lan to relieve his boredom. There is no need to be so concerned.
......
Bai Wei was entrusted by Luo Chenxi to bring 10 seeds each of seven top-level plant seeds, including large-fruited hemlock, green torreya, king cedar, golden pine, black emperor peach, Kui chestnut and spotted star pear. .
Longbai left 2 king fir seeds and 2 Kui chestnut seeds as seeds for himself and Mo Lan in the next instar and the next instar.
Bring 1 large-fruited hemlock seed and 1 black emperor peach seed to Ghost Fan as a gift.
The rest are soaked and sown in the nursery.
These are all large trees. Ordinary seedlings without nurturing seeds grow slowly and require intensive cultivation for 2 to 3 years before they can be transplanted and established, and 3 to 8 years before they can fully mature.
……
Giant soldier ants also started cultivating them immediately.
There is nothing else, it is that Longbai needs to frequently enter the ant nest incubation room to release pheromones to stimulate development.
……
Jue Bai led the team and had collected and polished a sufficient number of stones.
Long Bai controlled the throne to be enlarged to the limit, and transported the stones back to the territorial pool one after another.
After one day of teaching, Juniper learned how to build the pool wall.
Then they acted separately.
Long Bai took 20 intermediate specialized chemical worker ants and 20 junior specialized chemical worker ants and was busy in his own territory.
Jue Bai led 20 intermediate specialized chemical worker ants and 20 junior specialized chemical worker ants, busy in Molan's territory.
The rice seeds at the foot of the mountain have germinated and are growing rapidly under the spring temperature conditions.
Soak the lotus seeds placed deep in the ant nest in bamboo tubes to sprout, then throw them separately into the shallow water of the pond.
Having been busy for half a month,
the two pools on the mountain were all completed, and steps were also built to facilitate the worker ants to use bamboo tubes to collect water.
The rice at the foot of the mountain has grown to about 10 centimeters, and the lotus has taken root in the water and grown its first lotus leaf.
Longbai blocks the drainage outlet of the pond, causing the water level to rise slightly by four to five centimeters.
……
The development speed of giant soldier ant larvae is significantly faster than that of intelligent worker ants.
An ant egg hatches into a larvae with a diameter of 1 mm. It only takes about ten days to grow to about 10 cm, a big white and fat worm.
Long Bai then mixed and matched various types of force food, refined it through blue ants, mixed it with ant honey, and began to feed it force food to promote its evolution into giant soldier ants.
......
Long Bai himself also ate the force food he bought from the caravan.
When all the things in the territory were finished or on track, Long Bai began to feel sleepy and his evolution was imminent.
Inform Mo Lan and huddle in the ant nest to wait peacefully.
Within two days, the sleepiness was so intense that I fell into a deep sleep at dusk.
......
Wake up from his drowsiness. Due to the awakening of a large number of memories, Long Bai's thinking was confused for a while.
Shedding the old shell, unfolding the membrane wings, expanding the body, the new shell hardens quickly.
The 2nd instar intermediate king ant finally exceeded 20 centimeters in length!
The time between this evolution was nearly 8 months, and there was no obvious feeling of weakness.
Expand your mental strength with all your strength.
The strengthening effect of the 100 ordinary ghost fans eaten previously appeared, and as expected, the limit scanning distance exceeded 10 meters.
Rough calculation, it should be a leap from 9 meters to nearly 11 meters, which is equivalent to the increase when a junior is promoted to an intermediate ant king.
——What will be the effect of a god-given ghost fan?
Long Bai is even more looking forward to the next transaction with Gui Fan.
Spit out the fertilized golden pine life seeds.
Walk the tentacles to call the worker ants to come forward and move them to soak the seeds in preparation for choosing a location for sowing.
Then put a king cedar pine nut into the life bag as the second-instar life seed.
Sorting out the awakening memories, it is still the knowledge of animals and plants, as well as the knowledge of commanding battles of the ants.
Without awakening new innate knowledge of cultivating other types of soldier ants or worker ants, it should have been completed, and there will be no follow-up. Long Bai jumped off the throne, followed suit, and walked out slowly.
Mo Lan's territory has been busy for a long time. She has nothing to do recently and is guarding the restaurant at the entrance of the ant nest.
"Long Bai, you're awake!"
Mo Lan greeted and took the initiative to tell: "This time you only slept for two days and one night."
Long Bai: "The interval is long. It's easy to wake up after evolution."
Long Bai asked: "Mo Lan, do you want to eat something together?"
Mo Lan: "Okay. Yeah.”
Long Bai shook his tentacles.
A specialized blue ant crawled into the restaurant and spit some ant honey into a wooden saucer made from quince seeds.
Ordinary worker ants lined up to enter the restaurant holding food.
Mo Lan asked: "Long Bai, how has your mental power improved? Are you able to control the throne of control and fly faster now?"
Long Bai picked up one. The cricket on the head was dipped in the wooden plate, and he chewed it slowly and swallowed it.
The throne of rulership, scaled into a ball with a diameter of four to five centimeters, rose from the ground and flew around the restaurant.
“With improved mental power, it becomes easier to control and the speed is slightly improved.”
Mo Lan immediately asked: "Long Bai, can we set off now? We can't wait for the juniper to hatch, right?"
"It's still early for the juniper."
Long Bai Dao: "Eat enough, pack up and prepare, and set off tomorrow morning. The giant soldier ant larvae need to continue to be stimulated by pheromones to develop, so take it with you."
It is morning now.
Long Bai and Mo Lan spent most of the morning eating.
In the afternoon, the golden pine seeds were sown. In the following days, the main task of juniper cypress was to take care of the new seeds.
Hunting to hoard a batch of food for the ant nest.
Arrange soldier ants to station in various places and do a good job of protection.
Finally,
Long Bai got a thick moso bamboo tube from the bottom of the mountain and put the giant soldier ant larvae in it to prevent it from being burned by the sun. Take two large worker ants with you to take care of them full-time.
Bring another specialized blue ant and move the granary.
In addition, a small bamboo tube was used to carry 5 microchemical worker ants and 3 small worker ants. On the way, the 'messenger' function of the throne can also be used to lay ant eggs, so as not to delay the development of the ant kingdom.
Two bamboo tubes are tied side by side to a flat stone to prevent them from rolling and falling.
All preparations were done,
early the next morning, the throne of control was enlarged to about 2 meters in diameter and set off with a full load.
...
The last time I went straight back to Xianglan Mountain from the Ghost Fan Territory, it took 9 days.
The flight from Xianglan Mountain to Ghost Fan Territory took less than 8 days.
With the strengthening of Long Bai's mental power, the flying speed of the Throne of Control has indeed increased.
We arrived at the place in the middle of the afternoon.
Long Bai and Mo Lan did not hide their Force aura and went straight to the clearing on the hillside.
Gui Fan, who was busy in the forest, was keenly aware of it and ran back quickly.
"Longbai Ant King, Mo Lan, and you guys are finally here."
Ghost Fan has a powerful spirit and greets him from afar.
We have been waiting for it day and night, but we have finally arrived.
Running closer, Spirit glanced at the domination throne secretly and found a large bag full of Force food.
Worker ants and plump larvae on the throne were also found.
"Long Bai, the larva you are bringing doesn't seem to be an ordinary worker ant?"
Long Bai controlled the throne of control and flew up to meet it, got closer, and explained: "It It's not a worker ant, it's a giant soldier ant that can command the ant colony to fight. During the cultivation period, the ant king needs to continue to stimulate differentiation with pheromones, so I brought it along."
"Ghost Fan!"< br>
Mo Lan greeted, picked up the spider silk bag containing the original stone, and said: "Ghost Fan, I have brought the original stone you need."
Thanks to book friends Invisible Shape, 753684268, and Chasing the Romance for the reward.
