Chapter 172 The Treasure House of Hanlan Mountain (1)
The spring breeze is warm in spring.
Bai Wei also sent a bag of fruit tree seeds this year, half of which were peach tree seeds.
This batch of seeds is not expensive and is used for building orchards, picking fruits, and refining ant honey.
Long Bai took juniper with him and directed the worker ants to urgently open up four large nurseries in the north of the mountain, and took advantage of the season to sow them one after another.
Juniper cypress and giant cypress have completed one molt evolution and reached the 7th intermediate stage.
Juniper is responsible for hunting and gives priority to supply when resources are scarce. It has evolved to the intermediate 8th age. Its body shape exceeds that of dragon cypress and its body length reaches about 1.3 meters.
Crystal cypress and cedar cedar were born late and evolved into the intermediate 5th instar.
The five command ants are evolving steadily.
The azure god-given seed bloomed, almost as expected, with the first 6 broad leaves. The yield increased significantly, with 1,074 fruits.
There are many other things on the mountain in spring, but there is nothing that Long Bai needs to worry about personally.
Mo Lan has been talking about the treasure house in Hanlan Mountain, and Long Bai has been looking forward to it for a long time.
Gather 45 specialized worker ants, 45 large worker ants, 5 specialized blue ants, 15 large blue ants, 5 specialized soldier ants, and 20 large soldier ants, and set off south.
Black Lotus Lake.
Three nurseries on the mountainside.
Two nurseries at the foot of the mountain.
Heiti led the ant colony, lying lazily on the high slope between the mountainside and the foot of the mountain, enjoying the warm sunshine.
White Willow hung upside down on the trunk of a big elm tree. Feeling the fluctuation of the force of the throne, he loosened his claws, flipped in the air, flapped his wings gently, and rose into the sky with a flicker.
In the 7th instar intermediate warrior stage, it ate silver cypress seeds and divinely gifted southern date seeds. After evolving into the 8th instar, its body shape was optimized, its wings became slightly narrower and shorter, and it became more agile in flight.
“Longbai Ant King!”
"I'm 8 years old!"
As he approached the throne of control, Bai Liu rolled three times to the right and three times to the left. When he was about to collide with the throne, he flipped backwards. Pull away and fly backwards in sync with the throne.
“…”
This dazzling flying show left Long Bai speechless.
Long Bai and Mo Lan have also been insisting on using silver cypress seeds and divine jujube seeds to optimize their wings and strengthen their flying ability. They also tried tumbling in the air, but gave up after falling several times.
Long Bai: "Bai Liu, where is the destiny seed? How did you choose it?"
Bai Liu: "Black Lotus!"
Long Bai: "Uh..."
Long Bai : "The strengthening effect of Black Lotus is extremely rare and precious. It is a very good choice. However, there is no need to choose so many of the same life type. I got a batch of high-quality yellow peach seeds. I will give you 5 seeds and keep one. Seed the seeds and sow the rest for Heiti."
Bai Liu: "...Thank you."
Long Bai: "Bai Liu, I brought you a jar of Force Ant Honey. I will send you another jar during the autumn trade. Counting the time, you will be able to evolve into a 9-year-old intermediate warrior in the late autumn and early winter. Then, Next autumn, you will use the auxiliary ability of the Dominion Throne to evolve into a high-level warrior."
Bai Liu: "Got it"
Long Bai lay on the edge of the stump ant nest, burying his head and looking downward. hillside.
Bai Liu hurriedly said: "Longbai Ant King, the nursery has been built, all the seeds have been sown in time, and they are sprouting one after another."
Bai Liu introduced again: "Southern Ziziphus jujube The seeds were sown at the earliest, and the seedlings had grown to four or five centimeters tall. Hei Ti followed the method you taught and promptly sent out worker ants to kill all the weak seedlings to make room for the strong seedlings to grow.”
"Oh! Heiti did a great job."
Long Bai controlled the throne to descend slowly.
Feeling the arrival of the ant king, the ant colonies stood up, raised their heads, and waved their tentacles.
"Your Majesty——" Heiti greeted and found that there were a large number of worker ants following the throne, and felt bad.
“Heiti, are you done?”
"No -"
"It's just an ordinary plant. Just let Bailiu help with the rest of the irrigation work."
"But Bailiu can't even do the irrigation work well." "Cut the nonsense! Come with me."
Long Bai controlled the throne to land and use his mental power to transmit the message, saying: "Bai Liu, I will take Heiti to stay here for a while. The ant colony in Black Lotus Lake remains”
Bai Liu: "Oh——"
Bai Liu: "Longbai Ant King, will you take Heiti to work?"
Long Bai briefly explained: "Yes. It's a bit special. I need its help for the job. I will send it back after the transaction is completed in early summer."
Bai Liu: "I understand."
Long Bai: "Bai Liu, please do me a little favor. After hunting some fish in the lake, I stocked up a batch of food for the remaining ant colony.”
"Okay." Bailiu flew towards Black Lotus Lake.
Long Bai turned around and said to the reluctant Heiti: "My king will take you to Hanlan Mountain to make a fortune! Dig the treasure house, and if good things come out, I will reward you with rough stones or other valuable things. "
Long Bai: "Heiti, you are now semi-independent from Xianglan Mountain. Before you evolve to an advanced level, I will provide you with all resources for free. During this period, you can get paid for your work. Keep it in your account first, and you can withdraw it from me at any time when you evolve to a higher level."
Heiti shook his tentacles excitedly, "Listen. The Ant King ordered!”
Long Bai spread his membrane wings and ordered: "Take the ants back to the nest and arrange for them to rest in the nest and don't run around. I will also hunt some large beasts and store enough food for them. This time It may take two or three months for you to come back after a long journey. I will come here to check at noon."
After that, he took off into the air, climbed over the mountain peak, and got into the forest behind.
……
Long Bai spent half a day preparing and rested all night.
The next day, we set off with black clothes and headed east in a straight line.
In Hanlan Mountain, a quagmire containing a treasure was discovered. It rained heavily in spring, and all kinds of weeds grew wildly. It turned into a green swamp wetland.
The treasure house sank to the bottom of the mud at a depth of more than 10 meters, making it difficult to handle.
Long Bai came up with two plans.
The first set of plans is to divert water from the river ditch and irrigate it. During the heavy rains in summer, I will lead the blue soldiers and activate the water system ability to stir up the mud to form mud, and drain the mud through drainage.
After repeated deductions, Long Bai rejected this method as it was too laborious.
The second plan involves digging ditches that flow into the swamp, rerouting them, and digging multiple drainage canals around the swamp. The high temperatures in mid-summer will dry out the swamps. At that time, just instruct the worker ants to dig out the dried soil layer by layer and move it away.
There is a problem with this plan. If there is a heavy rain after digging to a certain depth, water will accumulate in the pit and turn into a mud pond.
You can switch to option 1 and use the water system capacity to drain water.
Long Bai controlled the throne to stop at the river ditch at the foot of the mountain, put down the wooden plank, and waved his tentacles to give orders.
"Heiti, take the worker ants to find a place on the hillside over there and open a temporary ant nest."
"Okay. King."
Heiti led the worker ants, walked down the throne in formation, and climbed up the mountain under the protection of the soldier ants.
Longbai spread its wings, kicked its legs into the air, hovered at low altitude, flew around the swamp and wetland, and observed the terrain.
I landed again, walked twice, and measured again.
He made a mental calculation and soon had a detailed excavation plan.
Enter the mountains and forests, hunt large animals, move them back to refine them for blue ants, store their bellies, and hoard enough food for the ant colony for a month.
"Heiti! Come here."
Long Bai called Heiti, who was taking the lead and personally leading the worker ants to dig the ant nest, to come forward.
This job has rewards! Heiti was full of energy and ran forward quickly.
“Your Majesty, your instructions!”
"Come down the mountain, I will explain the specific excavation plan to you. Then I will go back to Fanglan Mountain and transport a group of worker ants and blue ants."
Long Bai led Heiti down the mountain and gave on-site guidance and arrangements for the work.
