Chapter 93 Homecoming (eighth update)
It’s another year of heavy rain in midsummer.
Ghost Fan Mountain.
In the area where plants are concentrated in the center of the mountain col, Ghost Fan was clearing away the mud, rocks and dead branches and leaves that blocked the drainage channel. He suddenly felt a familiar fluctuation in the force. He looked up and saw the ruler of the mountain in the distance. The throne is slowly approaching.
——Didn’t it say that Xianglan Mountain was building a reservoir and was very busy, so we only came here in winter?
——What happened?
Gui Fan thought, became nervous, ran quickly, and stood in a conspicuous position.
Long Bai saw the ghost fan, and the throne of control turned slightly and tilted down.
"Longbai Ant King, Mo Lan, what's wrong..."
Ghost Fan asked, and with a sweep of his mental power, he found the little armored warrior standing above Mo Lan. He understood. At one point, he was suddenly stunned.
"Ghost fan!"
"We are back again."
Long Bai and Mo Lan greeted.
Mo Lan got straight to the point and asked directly: "Gui Fan, what do you think of this newly awakened three-spotted armored warrior?"
Long Bai also said: "If you are willing to take care of it, It can be arranged in Ghost Fan Mountain to keep you company.”
"Uh-"
Ghost Fan came back to his senses and asked: "Is it willing to take root here?"
Long Bai: "It has no better place to go."
Long Bai: "Although this mountain col is not large in area, its Force concentration is definitely one of the best among the Force places discovered so far, and it can fully accommodate two or three Zerg warriors."
Ghost Fan: "Yes..."
Mo Lan: "Mujianjia and Koujia are both elytra beetles. For hundreds of millions of years, we are the same species."
"That makes sense..."
Ghost Fan asked Said: "How should I take care of the little warrior? Can I just give it Force food?"
It can be seen that Gui Fan is very willing to keep this little warrior, but he is worried that he cannot take good care of it.
Furthermore, Gui Fan’s worries are not unnecessary. The little guy, who is only a centimeter in size, is too easy to die unexpectedly.
Birds, snakes, rats and other predatory animals in the forest can easily kill it.
Long Bai said: "Ghost Fan, you need to spend a few months or even a year to take good care of it and keep it with you at all times. If you are working in the fields, remember to arrange it in a safe place. , it is best to live in a cave."
Mo Lan suddenly had a brilliant idea and suggested: "Gui Fan, can't you manipulate metal gravel to drill holes inside the wood? Punch a lot of holes and make a movable insect nest for it. When you work, just put the insect nest nearby and tell it not to run around."
Long Bai: "Junior Xiao. Warriors, if you have enough Force food, you can shed your shell and evolve every three months. It will be much safer after the 4th age."
Long Baihe. Mo Lan sang in harmony, dispelling Gui Fan's few worries.
Ghost Fan said: "As long as it is willing to stay, I definitely have no objection."
Mo Lan said: "Ghost Fan, if you take out the ant honey and show it, it will definitely be willing."< br>
Ghost Fan: "Uh..."
Ghost Fan ran back to the cave where he lived, ran back with a metal can, and opened the lid.
Mo Lan fluttered her wings and landed.
"Little guy, go to the ghost fan quickly, it has endless supply of force ant honey."
The little armored warrior spread his wings, hovered on the metal spout, and looked down.
Half of the ant honey was eaten and was out of reach.
The tentacles of the ghost fan are bent, pick up a little bit, and hand it to the little Kukak warrior.
“Eat…”
The little armored warrior held the tentacles of the ghost fan in his paws and licked them.
Ghost Fan was elated with joy and asked: "What plant did it choose as its first plant?"
Long Bai: "I haven't chosen yet."
Mo Lan: "Is there a ripe raspberry fruit on the mountain? Raspberry is suitable for it."
Ghost Fan thought for two seconds and asked: "Then its name is 'raspberry' ?”
Mo Lan: "Then we have to wait until it gestates the first life seed first."
Ghost Fan: "There are several big bushes on the mountain where I live, and it will take some time to mature."
Long Bai reminded: "Don't give too much force food to the newborn warrior at one time."
"I understand!"
The ghost fan gently moved its tentacles, The little armored warrior lying on the tentacles was placed on the top of the head. The other tentacle was dipped in some ant honey from the jar and applied to the carapace of the forehead.
The metal ability controls the bottle cap to fly up and close it.
Long Bai saw this and said: "Okay, Ghost Fan, I will leave this three-spotted armored warrior to you. Mo Lan and I have to return to Xianglan Mountain quickly. The reservoir cannot be completed as scheduled. Mo Lan Lan can't be promoted to a high-level Hua Mantis warrior." Gui Fan said seriously: "I understand! I won't keep you."
…
…
…
This trip took another 25 days.
It’s late summer.
Pianlan Mountain, north.
The 18 ramets of the God-given seed of Gorgon fruit are fully grown, surrounding the mother plant, and a large area is lush.
The mother plant has also completed its second development. It still has five leaves, but each leaf has a diameter of about 1.5 meters and a height of three meters. It stands proudly on the water and sways gently with the breeze.
The God-given Gorgon Seed has entered a stable stage of absorbing light and force and accumulating energy.
Mo Lan was completely relieved.
While leaving, Juniper led the ant colony and peeled away nearly one meter of the mountain skin on the west side.
The project to expand the lake area is temporarily suspended.
Long Bai came back and turned around to continue the construction of the dam foundation.
Divided into sections and built in batches.
First dig a deep pit with a length of 3 meters, a width of 2 meters and a depth of 2 meters.
The pit is dug and the King's Throne is transported with a height of more than 8 meters. Hard pine, cypress, fir and other woods are placed vertically in the pit.
The spider silk rope is tied to one end of the wood.
Long Bai and Mo Lan led a group of special chemical ants to pull the spider silk rope, hoisted it with the control throne, and erected the wood vertically.
Juniper cypress directs the worker ants to backfill the pit with large and small rocks and clay.
After it was filled, Long Bai manipulated the throne to hit the ground up and down repeatedly to consolidate the foundation.
The design length of the embankment is 50 meters and the width is 8 meters. In a block-by-block manner, pits are dug, piles are erected, backfilled, and compacted block by block.
When the juniper has nothing to do, it also takes the soldier ants everywhere to collect gravel. When backfilling, it can also command the soldier ants to help load the materials.
Thousands of soldier ants and worker ants, large and small, work together in an orderly manner.
One pit a day.
Two months later, the foundation of the dike was initially completed.
Looking around, there are sixty-six wooden piles standing densely.
It’s mid-autumn.
Long Bai and Mo Lan fell asleep and evolved once.
At the age of 9, Mo Lan chose Sky Persimmon as her life seed and planned to evolve into a high-level warrior in the coming spring season.
At the 7th age of Longbai, one of my own God-given Gorgon seeds has been conceived. I will collect it carefully and sow it in the spring of next year. I will also choose Sky Persimmon as the seed for the new age.
Long Bai still needs to dig a pond himself.
Time is running out.
After evolving, rest for two days and continue building the dam.
Long Bai continued to use the throne to lift the wood and lay it horizontally.
The juniper cypress commanded the worker ants, and the juniper cypress also commanded the soldier ants to assist, backfilling the previously dug meter with clay and gravel on a large scale, and the backfill was flush with the surrounding ground.
As the embankment goes up, it must be built into a trapezoid shape, one layer at a time, 0.5 meters apart, and some wood must be laid horizontally on each layer to serve as the 'skeleton' of the embankment.
The bottom width is 10 meters, and the width of each layer is reduced by 0.5 meters, layer by layer, to the top 2 meters width.
The main materials are still clay, stone and wood.
The materials are not enough...
The troops are divided into three groups.
Jueberry directs a group of worker ants to continue digging on the west slope of the North Reservoir to expand the capacity of the reservoir. Clay and gravel are also collected.
Long Bai took a group of worker ants to the south of Shannan. He picked a gently sloping land in a low-lying land 1,500 meters away from the pond where the azure god-given seeds took root, and started planting his own Gorgon seeds. Prepare to take root in the pond.
The juniper commanded the soldier ants to pick up stones all over the mountains and plains.
Mo Lan is not idle either. She specializes in hunting and hoarding food for the ant nest.
