Astral Ant Tribe

Pandan Mountain.

As soon as the ruling throne approached the mountains, a green figure soared from the forest and rushed towards it.

"Longbai!"

"Sugar."

Mo Lan greeted, hovering and landing, "Why did you take the sugarcane over here?"

Xuan Lang took the initiative and said: "King Longbai Ant takes me to Citi Mountain to see the Palace of Knowledge and the Quandong Sacred Tree."

Mo Lan: "Do you want to trade in early winter? It's cold in the north and I won't freeze you to death."

Xuan Lang: "No. Let's go there early! I don't want to go to Yinbai Mountain."

"Okay." Mo Lan looked at the cypress again and asked, "How is the red cypress seed given by the god?"

Long Bai: "The state is stable and cannot die in a short period of time. It is certain that the relics of the seed given by the god Long Bai have some effects."

Long Bai asked: "Has the green flower orchid been harvested? How is the quality?"

"It's not bad." Mo Lan: "Juniper said that it can sell 3 rough stones/piece."

"Have a look!"

Long Bai urged the governing throne to accelerate and landed directly at the entrance of the ant nest in the south of Shannan.

The cedar fell to the ground, surrounded by worker ants, and rushed towards the ant nest treasure house.

Long Bai and Mo Lan took Xuan Lang to rest in the restaurant.

Not long after,

Xiangbai and Juniper arrived together and directed the worker ants to carry out a medium-sized spider silk bag.

Only small half pocket.

The orchid seed particles are too small and the quality can only be considered average.

Counting it down, the number is quite large, 156 branches, each producing 16 grains, a total of 2496 grains.

"Long Bai, how are you?" Mo Lan asked expectantly.

Equally eager are the cedar and juniper. Each of them will receive 10% of the income from the God-given seeds of Cuihua Hanlan.

Long Bai: "The pricing of juniper is relatively accurate. When sold to caravans, the price is about 3 rough stones per grain."

Long Bai: "Based on 2,500 grains, Xiang Bai and Juniper, you each get 750 rough stone share income."

"This is your ants' first income from cultivating God-given seeds, and it's worth celebrating. Juniper, you go inform Juniper, Giant Cypress, and Silver Cypress to have a dinner to celebrate."

"Okay." Junbai did not walk away immediately, but asked tentatively: "Longbai Ant King, 750 rough stones? Why don't you round up the whole number to facilitate accounting."

Xiangbai quickly agreed: "Yes. Your Majesty. A grain of rice is marked as 1,000 rough stones."

Command ants handle their private wealth differently.

Juniper and cedar are reluctant to eat and keep saving them. Every time, they have to be urged by Juniper before they are willing to eat some and grow and evolve.

Juniper is the complete opposite. Every time it gives out a reward, it eats it immediately and cannot sleep until it is finished.

Giant Cypress and Emerald Cypress behaved more rationally. They ate slowly and evenly to ensure that the strengthening effect of Force Food was maximized.

Long Bai: "No need to round up. Distribute the force food directly. According to the standard of 750 raw stones, make 5 cans. No waste of royal jelly is allowed to be sealed. Xiang Bai, you do it now."

Xiangbai: "...Okay."

Juniper: "..."

Juniper waved its tentacles, summoned a group of worker ants to follow, and left quickly.

Long Bai took two small spider silk bags and divided the orchid seeds into two parts, 1,200 pieces each, to be sold to Qiye and Caolong respectively in the coming year.

"Mo Lan, I've got 96 pills for you to eat."

"oh--"

Mo Lan was not short of food and agreed nonchalantly. Seeing Xuan Lang looking at the map scrawled on the stone wall carved by Long Bai, he asked:

"Julang, can you understand?"

Xuanlang: “I can’t understand.”

Mo Lan: "Then you still watch so intently."

Xuan Lang withdrew his gaze and said, "It's just because I couldn't understand it that I looked carefully."

Mo Lan: "Don't look at it. Long Bai can't even understand it. Let's go. I'll take you to the mountains to play."

Mo Lan led Xuan Lang out of the cave and walked to the entrance. Seeing that Long Bai didn't follow, he was also looking at the map on the stone wall in a trance, and then turned around and asked:

"Long Bai, we have just entered the late autumn season, and there is still one month left before the early winter trading. Where should we go?"

Long Bai: "Looking for the land of the Force. There are still some places in the west of the mainland that have not been explored. Set out tomorrow morning, take the sugarcane with you, and check them all."

Long Bai: "You go ahead and play. I'll plan the path."

…

…

…

Directly north of Molan Mountain.

Southwest of the swamp where White Lotus Lake is located.

The ruling throne is suspended high in the sky, and dragon cypress, molan, and sugarcane lie on the edge of the tree stump ant nest, overlooking the front.

A desolate plateau with sparse vegetation, loess, strong winds and flying sand.

New places of the Force were discovered, but there didn’t seem to be any need to explore.

"Long Bai, come over and take a look."

"Just name it."

"If you don't look at it, how can you name it?"

"There's a forest over there."

"Go down-"

The throne of domination falls, slows down, flies sideways, and hovers.

A natural lake located in a low valley, it is slender and crescent-shaped, about a hundred meters long, and only about ten meters wide at its widest point. The lake water is crystal clear to the bottom.

It should be formed by the upward flow of underground underground rivers.

There are some elm trees and weeds growing on both sides.

The entire land of force is just a lively place, and there are some small animals living here, not many in number.

Dry and barren, a place where the probability of birthing Force life is zero.

Mo Lan named Crescent Lake.

Rest here overnight and continue searching northwards.

The next day,

Mo Lan felt the force fluctuation again.

I flew to check it out and found that it was still on a plateau. It was all loess eroded by the wind and there were only a few plants.

It is recorded in the Citizen Hill Hall of Knowledge that during the last period of the Force, this place was very fertile, and tribes of various sizes were located here.

It should be caused by climate changes, reduced precipitation and drought in recent thousands of years.

Simply named Loess Wasteland.

Continuing to the north, after another two days, the terrain dropped and entered the plains. The vegetation gradually became denser and life was flourishing.

I went back and forth and searched in zigzag lines, but I couldn't find the place of force.

On the way, I took a trip to Xiaoyang Mountain and packed 10 bags of the relics of poplar seeds given by God, 5 bags in Citi Mountain and 5 bags in Yinbai Mountain.

Every year in late autumn and early winter, a batch of traveling merchants would be transported along the way.

…

The cold wind from the north lasted all night.

The temperature plummeted.

A thick layer of snow accumulated on the summit of Citi Mountain.

The flame spider is a tropical insect. The sugarcane couldn't stand the cold and hid in the stump ant nest.

Long Bai first observed around at high altitude, but found no trace of yellow skewer and spruce. They should be hiding in the cave to avoid the cold.

After a year of recovery and growth, the Quandong Sacred Tree is more than 300 meters tall, almost as high as the mountains.

The throne of control flew and landed under the tree.

"I've seen the Quandong Sacred Tree."

Long Bai and Mo Lan greeted.

"I've seen the Quandong Sacred Tree." Xuan Lang poked his head from the entrance of the tree stump's ant nest.

"oh!"

"Flame Spider Warrior."

Quandong Sacred Tree asked: "Long Bai, Mo Lan, is this little guy what you talked about last time?"

Mo Lan: "Yes. Let's take it on a long trip to increase its knowledge."

The Quandong Sacred Tree is an enthusiastic and talkative tree. Youyou said: "In the past winter, those spider kings were reluctant to go to Citi Mountain. They said it was cold. You are traveling to the north with such a small flame spider in this season. Not a smart move."

Mo Lan: "It's only autumn now. We didn't expect that the temperature suddenly dropped."

Xuanlang: "The ant nest is very warm."

Quandong Sacred Tree's spiritual power scanned the ant nest and found a metal tank filled with hot water inside. He instantly understood: you bugs are quite good at finding solutions.

Quandong Sacred Tree asked: "Mo Lan, has this little guy obtained some inherited memories? There are clues about the whereabouts of his tribe."

"ah???"

Mo Lan didn't understand.

"It seems not."

Quandong Divine Tree explained: "The inheritance memory of the Zerg is constantly increasing, and some important information will be included and passed on by the laws of nature."

"For example, the original flame spider differentiated into the Traveling Flame Spider, but before it differentiated into the Traveling Flame Spider, there will definitely be no relevant records in the inheritance. It must have been added later, right? Another example is the wild variants of certain plants. and cultivars.”

"!!!"

Mo Lan and Xuan Lang woke up and were shocked.

Long Bai had already thought about this problem, and also thought about this. Unexpectedly, he asked: "Quandong Sacred Tree, when you were at your peak, was the height of the tree more than 400 meters?"

Quandong: "Yes."

Long Bai: "Then you have recovered very well and are not far from your peak state."

Quandong: "It's just that the height of the tree has recovered a little, but its strength is still far behind."

Quandong Sacred Tree knew what Long Bai wanted to ask, and said directly: "However, in the current state, it will definitely be no problem for it to bear fruit."

Long Bai: "We're not in a hurry. It's okay if you delay for a year before flowering and bearing fruit..."

Long Bai said hypocritically, "I evolved into the 7th age during my 6th age. I used a lot of strength-enhancing Force food. After testing, it was verified that the carrying capacity of the Dominion Throne is related to my own strength. At present, the limit The load capacity is 10,000 rough stones. Presumably, after evolving to the Mountain Lord level, transporting 40,000 to 50,000 in one trip will not be a problem. I will definitely be able to deliver the rough stones for the soul-fixing fruit to Citi Mountain in time."

Quandong: "Then Huang Ya can feel at ease."

Quandong: "Are you and Mo Lan exploring other parts of the continent this year? Or are you continuing to search for rough stones..."

Plants cannot move and can only obtain information through Zerg warriors.

Quandong Shenshu was already good at this, so he naturally chatted with Long Bai and inquired about various news.

We chatted until noon,

Huang Ya and Yun Shan walked out of the cave to look for food, and suddenly found that Long Bai and Mo Lan had arrived...

We chatted together until evening...

After resting for a night in Citi Mountain, both Xuan Lang and Mo Lan stayed at the Palace of Knowledge to study, while Long Bai went to Yin Bai Mountain for business alone.
