Astral Ant Tribe

All the crimson fruits, after the pulp was refined into ant king honey, were collected into a high-level specialized blue ant, and in the end only a small half of its abdomen was filled.

The seed particles are relatively large, and Long Bai directs the small worker ants to carry them to the top of the tree stump ant nest to dry.

Mo Lan held up the wooden dish of Acanthus vine seeds that it used to eat and contain ant honey, and placed it in front of the specialized blue ant.

The special blue ant understood and vomited half of the plate.

Molan dipped his tentacles in it and tasted it, his eyes glowing red.

"Long Bai! Crimson Ant King Honey is so delicious!"

"Eat less!" Long Bai saw the pain in his flesh and quickly waved his tentacles, ordering the blue ants to lick back the honey.

"I -" Mo Lan became unhappy, hugged the tentacles and licked them, then turned to Sang and asked:

"Sang, do common golden berries ripen in winter?"

Sang: "...Yes."

Mo Lan turned her head again and said to Long Bai: "Long Bai, can we come over and collect a batch this winter?"

Long Bai: "Of course!"

Long Bai said seriously: "The crimson fruit is already a top-notch delicacy, and blending it with other fruits will only be counterproductive. We will come here in winter to collect a batch of golden fruits, refine the ant honey, and use it to blend the crimson ant king honey. If there is excess, Mo Lan You can eat more."

Mo Lan: "Okay!"

Mo Lan: "Sang, Long Bai and I can give you raw stones and a variety of ordinary golden trees in our territory!"

mulberry:"……"

Long Bairang planted the golden light fruit tree to brew crimson ant king honey.

Mo Lan did this purely for food...

…

Long Bai and Mo Lan were in no hurry to leave.

It took five or six days to loosen the soil, weed the seeds given by the crimson god, and kill animals to dig holes and fill them with fertile fertilizer.

After taking care of it, Feiguangzi also dried it, put it into a spider silk bag for storage, and set off on the road.

The arc curves around and rushes to Baifanshan to trade.

This year's trading goods were a bit thin in the ordinary categories, and the quality was average. As a last resort, Long Bai took out the god-given ghost fan and traded it with white rice.

Then we curve around and arrive at Nanjujuo Mountain.

Checking the seeds of the vine sown last autumn, most of them germinated successfully and are growing rapidly, helping them to pull out the nearby weeds.

The God-given South Jujube seed is about to ripen, so loosen the soil and topdress it.

Then go south to Ghost Fan Mountain.

Under the surrounding peaks, at the intersection of two ravines, Ghost Fan and Raspberry were busy in the mire.

Following Long Bai's suggestion, the river channel here was widened and developed into a trumpet shape. Heavy rains in summer cause floods to rush down. They slow down here and deposit most of the sediment. This prevents the river below from being blocked and flooding the territory.

"Longbai Ant King! Mo Lan!"

From a distance, Ghost Fan raised his head and waved his tentacles in greeting.

The throne of control accelerated, approached, and landed on the river bank.

"Mo Lan! Dragon Cypress Ant King!" Mulberry crawled out of the quagmire, quickly ran to the ditch not far away, rolled in the clear water, washed away the dirt, and ran back quickly.

"Little Raspberry, you can help with the work too!"

Mo Lan held a metal can, jumped lightly, and landed lightly.

"Yes! I am 8 years old."

Raspberry eagerly took the metal can and opened it to check.

"Longbai Ant King, this is..." Ghost Fan raised his front legs and pointed at the exaggeratedly large tree stump ant nest.

"Oh. The ant nest made of paulownia trees allows me to cultivate new ants during my business trip. I can make money and develop the ant kingdom at the same time."

Long Bai explained briefly, carried a large spider silk bag containing two metal cans, flapped his wings vigorously, and landed slowly on the ground.

"Ghost Fan, these two cans are force food that strengthens the comprehensive physique. They contain 100 high-quality god-given fruit pandan seeds. 2,000 raw stones/can."

"You eat slowly. Mo Lan and I have nothing urgent to do. We can stay and help you dig the river until you evolve into a deep sleep."

Ghost Fan: "Okay! Thank you."

Ghost Fan took the spider silk bag and said, "Go to my cave first."

…

Long Bai controlled the throne to land on the flat ground next to the cave, slowly shrinking.

Gui Fan and Mo Lan helped and removed the wooden pile ant nest together.

Raspberry was very positive and came to help.

The goods on the throne were moved into the cave.

The throne of control is parked in the cave and scaled to a diameter of 2 meters.

After Gui Fan had eaten and drank enough, he held the metal can, lay down on the throne, and began to concentrate on eating and preparing for evolution.

Long Bai and Mo Lan collected some thorny plant branches and prepared them at the entrance of the cave. They took raspberries with them to dig and widen the river channel.

Leave early and come back late.

One day, two days, three days...

Day four, dusk.

Slight fluctuations in the Force.

Wobberry returned to the cave to check the situation, then ran back again, flapped its elytra, and said happily:

"Mo Lan! Long Bai Ant King! The ghost fan has evolved!"

"Go back and take a look!"

Long Bai and Mo Lan crawled out of the mud, went to the ditch above to clean briefly, and ran back to the cave.

On the throne of control, the ghost fan has fallen into a deep sleep, and a large amount of force is converging on it, gradually forming a giant cocoon emitting a hazy white light.

Long Bai, Mo Lan, and Raspberry all restrained their mental strength and held their breath.

Long Bai waved his tentacles gently to signal.

They moved their claws together, carefully carrying the thorny plant branches prepared in advance, and stacked them to seal the entrance of the cave.

Stay away.

Long Bai arranged: "The ghost fan is in good condition. It can be completed smoothly in four days or five days. Mo Lan, take the raspberries and guard the entrance of the cave. I will continue to widen the river mouth."

"good!"

Molan and Raspberry answered at the same time.

Rest overnight.

The next day, Long Bai went to the river mouth to work alone.

One day, two days, three days...

Four days later, in the middle of the afternoon, the sky suddenly changed, strong winds came, dark clouds gathered, silver lightning and rolling thunder, and heavy rain poured down.

The bad summer shower weather in Guishan Mountain!

Long cypress propped up a 'hydrological shield' to seal the entrance of the cave, isolating wind, rain and thunder.

It lasted half the afternoon and half the night.

Rain breaks.

Violent force fluctuations broke out in the cave, and the ruling throne accelerated its absorption of natural force. It lasted for a short while and then quickly subsided.

at dawn,

The highly condensed force that enveloped Ghost Fan gradually weakened and collapsed.

Facing the morning light, Ghost Fan wakes up.

After shedding the old shell, the body expands rapidly and does not stop until it reaches about 2.2 meters.

With the assistance of the Dominion Throne, Ghost Fan completed this evolution relatively easily.

8th age advanced wooden armored warrior.

There is only a small step and a crucial step away from the 9th age of Mountain Lord level.

…

…

…

It took 37 days before and after, and the business transaction ended in early summer.

Tallying the goods.

Crimson Light Ant Wangmi and Crimson Guangzi were wholesaled to Bai Wei at the lowest price, with a total value of 26,754 rough stones.

There are 520 ghost fans, with a total value of 13,000 rough stones.

There is not much left of the various force foods collected from Baifan Mountain, and the total value is 1,600 rough stones.

There is also ordinary force food just collected from Ghost Fan Mountain, worth 4,200 rough stones.

The storage capacity of blue ants is super strong. There is king ant honey refined from Ziziphus jujube in the ant nest, and it has not gone bad after being stored for nearly five years. Later, he also wholesaled it to Bai Wei at the lowest price, which was worth about 16,000 rough stones.

These are the current total assets of Long Bai and Mo Lan, totaling about 61,500 rough stones and a fraction of them.

The total assets seem to be a lot, but they are mainly concentrated in the three god-given force foods: Feiguang, Ghost Fan, and Southern Jujube. The traveling merchant trade within Yunji Continent is somewhat difficult to turn over, and Long Bai and Mo Lan are afraid to eat the force food that strengthens the comprehensive physique.

The growth and evolution of juniper, juniper, giant cypress, incense cypress, and emerald cypress have also been temporarily put on hold.

After persisting for two years, he went back to trade with Bai Wei and sold the two god-given force foods, Fei Guang and Nan Zi Zi Zi, and the current predicament could be easily solved.

If the cooperation with Bai Wei goes as planned and becomes bigger and stronger, everyone will have endless supply of force food every year.

…

Pandan Mountain.

Under the leadership of Junbai, Shanxi reservoir excavation was completed.

Because it is built on a ridge, it is only 30 to 50 meters wide and about 200 meters long.

The overall shape is rectangular and not very regular.

The deepest point is about 6 meters.

The four sides are built into gentle slopes from shallow to deep, eliminating the trouble of building dams, and are backfilled with clay and humus soil to facilitate the construction of a reservoir ecosystem and later fish farming.

Water was diverted from the mountain peaks and ravines, and half of the reservoir was filled with a heavy rain before the dry season.

The scorching sun in midsummer.

Most of the worker ants return to the nest to escape the heat.

At night, Juniper led some worker ants out of the nest and continued to dig and build the ditch from Shanxi Reservoir to Nanqi Reservoir.

Cedar manages ant nest logistics.

Cuibai leads the soldier ants to protect the territory.

Green cypress and fragrant cypress can also work together to manage orchards.

Giant cypress and juniper lead soldier ants to guard the peaks on the west side of the mountain range. Occasionally, juniper leads the ant colony to hunt in the direction of the divine barrier.

Everything in Xianglan Mountain is proceeding in an orderly manner, and there is nothing that Long Bai needs to do personally.

Two days of rest,

Carrying the stake ant nest, set off to the north.
