Astral Ant Tribe
Chapter 53 Blue Fruit
The cicadas chirp in early summer.
The peak growing season for the azure god-given seeds.
From a distance, Long Bai saw that its seventh broad leaf had spread out.
"Azure!"
Long Bai controlled the throne to approach, slow down, and hover over the water.
"Longbai!"
Mo Lan raised her paw and pointed.
Looking straight down, under the third broad leaf, there are dark blue veins stained with green spots.
At first glance, I thought it was attracting some kind of pest.
With their mental power swept away, Long Bai and Mo Lan were ecstatically transmitting their mental power to each other.
"Zhanlan is bearing fruit!"
…
Long Bai: "Zhanlan, are you bearing fruit?"
Zhanlan: "Yes."
Long Bai: "When did the flowers bloom?"
Zhan Lan: "After you and Mo Lan leave."
Long Bai: "..."
Long Bai and Mo Lan's trip lasted 21 days.
Zhanlan obviously couldn't tell which day it was.
Long Bai did not embarrass it and asked: "What color is the flower? How many days have it been blooming?"
Azure: "Little blue flowers that bloom at night and fade when the sun appears in the morning."
Long Bai: "Where's the fruit? Do you remember how many days it took to grow?"
Zhan Lan: "It seems like... 8 days?"
"All right……"
Long Bai mentally scanned up and down.
Only the four lower broad leaves bear fruit.
Green and tender fruit with larger sesame seeds. Close to the leaf veins, the fruit stalk is very short, similar to the Jiabao fruit in inherited memories, except that the fruits are much sparsely distributed.
At present, the tree of the Azure God-given tree is over 4 meters tall, with the largest broadleaf at the bottom, at least 1.2 meters in diameter at the opening, and 23 fruits.
The opening of the second broad leaf is about 1 meter in diameter and bears 17 fruits.
The third and fourth broad leaves decrease in sequence, and the number of fruits is both 11.
This is the first time Zhanlan has bloomed and produced 62 fruits in total.
The quantity is slightly less, it depends on the size of the final fruit.
One more question: How many years does the fruit need to grow on the tree to mature?
Generally speaking, the longer the growth time, the higher the quality of the fruit.
However, if quality is divided by time cost, on average, the income will not increase.
The key is still production.
It has only been one year since the Azure God-given seeds were sown, and it is not yet easy to determine whether its yield will be high or low.
…
As the plant continues to grow taller, the first broad leaf of the azure god-given seed is already nearly 30 centimeters above the water.
"Azure, is the water level in the pond enough? Do you want it to be raised higher?"
Long Bai asked.
Zhanlan replied: "It's very suitable now."
Zhanlan said happily: "Longbai, the tadpoles under the rice have grown legs."
All God-given seeds are the same. Azure and Fruity Orchids have their own independent consciousness. They know that the seeds of Force life cannot reproduce offspring, and they do not care about their fruits.
Zhan Lan is more concerned about those frogs and tadpoles.
However, after communicating with Long Bai a lot, he became a little bit more understanding.
Zhan Lan took the initiative and asked: "Long Bai, did you and Mo Lan earn the rough stones this time?"
"Of course! I made a lot of money."
Long Bai laughed.
After hearing too many stories about the caravan, Zhan Lan also became a little obsessed with money.
Long Bai started talking enthusiastically: "When Mo Lan and I returned, we had an unexpected harvest. We found another place of force, where there was also a plant of the God-given Ziziphus jujube..."
Mo Lan was anxious to return to her territory and share the harvest of this journey with the fruity orchid god-given seed. We walked around the newly dug large pond, said goodbye and left.
After Long Bai communicated with Zhan Lan for a long time, he returned to the ant nest on the mountain.
Surrounded by five special chemical worker ants, Juniper ran over to greet him and waved his tentacles in greeting.
"Longbai Ant King, you are back."
"Um--"
Long Bai controlled the throne and asked as usual: "Did anything go wrong while I was away?"
Juniper: "Everything is fine."
"That's good."
Long Bai cut off the bamboo tube tied to the stone and arranged: "First move the 'Juniper' back to the ant nest and settle it down. There are also some ant eggs and larvae here, which are all specialized blue ants. They are taken into the corresponding ant nest and taken care of... "
…
As the size of the ant colony expands, the demand for food will inevitably increase.
In the ant kingdom, food is also an important resource.
After Long Bai evolved to the intermediate level, he only cultivated 40 intermediate-level specialized worker ants. There was no major excavation project in a short period of time, so he did not plan to cultivate more to save food rations.
He cultivated 80 intermediate-level specialized soldier ants in one go.
In addition to stationing to strengthen the defense of the territory, these soldier ants have also added a new combat team of 36 intermediate soldier ants, which specialize in hunting long distances, hunting large animals, and ensuring the food supply of the ant nest.
There are several other micro, small, medium and large soldier ants, which are still hunting insects near the ant nest and enriching food categories.
Long Bai plans to increase the number of specialized blue ants to 50 in the next month or so, and also breed 10 large, medium and small blue ants to fully fill the food storage capacity of the ant nest.
Then there are the large, medium, small and micro worker ants to further consolidate the logistic capabilities of the ant nest.
Finally, a group of specialized blue soldiers need to be cultivated.
Long Bai had previously chosen [Messenger·Guardian·Hydrology] to hatch a specialized blue soldier for testing. Unsurprisingly, this soldier ant only inherited water-based abilities and not power-based abilities.
The soft rake has no strength for raking, and it is difficult to lift a stone that is about 10 times the body weight.
Let's say he inherited the water system ability. The water system abilities that Long Bai currently masters are useless and useless. The throne of control has been recreated, and the blue soldiers, who only have about 30% of the ability of the ant king, need not even think about it.
But the Specialized Blue Soldier has a special ability: it can walk on water as if walking on flat ground.
It just so happens that in the future, the fruits of the azure god-given seeds are approaching maturity, and a group of specialized blue soldiers will be arranged to guard the ponds to prevent them from being eaten by birds, fish, and the like.
…
The ghost fan returned from the transaction was equally divided between Long Bai and Mo Lan.
Mo Lan's portion was refined by blue ants, mixed with ant honey, and then stored in an iron can given by Bai Wei.
Mo Lan took the tin can home and finished it within five days. After another two days, she fell into a deep sleep.
It successfully evolved into a 4-year-old intermediate warrior. Under Long Bai's strong suggestion and the temptation of promising to help it research orchid hybrid breeding, it chose a golden pine nut as its destiny seed.
Let’s go back and plant seeds next to each other.
…
Juniper helped manage the ant nest and run the territory, but Juniper seemed to have nothing to do.
Build a reservoir? The tree planted by the Azure God is far from tall enough, and we have to wait a few years.
Open up an orchard? There are only a few dozen seedlings at present, and they will have to be transplanted next year and the year after that. Arrangements will be made for the juniper trees then.
In the ant tribe, after the ant kingdom develops to a certain scale, the ant king no longer does the work himself, and the ant king only lays eggs.
But Long Bai is a male ant, and he's the kind that can't sit still.
Bring 50 special chemical ants with you to clean the valley at the foot of the mountain and widen the flood outlet to prevent heavy rains from rising and flooding the azure god-given seeds.
…
Mo Lan distributed force food worth 500 raw stones to Long Bai for cultivating 'Juniper'.
The effect is remarkable.
The proportion of raw food in the fed honey is increased, and the development speed is significantly accelerated.
The larvae soon exceed 20 centimeters in length.
time flies,
midsummer.
Juniper larvae are more than 30 centimeters long, white, tender, plump and fat.
During the dry season, when there was no cloud in the sky for more than 20 consecutive days, the streams dried up, and the water level of the distant rivers dropped and almost dried up.
The pools and ponds dug by Long Cypress function and you can live safely.
Juniper larvae develop rapidly and can reach more than half a meter in length.
You can basically estimate the size of the adult insect by looking at the larvae.
The body length of the giant soldier ant will be more than half a meter, which is larger than Molan's body, and deserves the title of 'giant'.
Long Bai organized worker ants to urgently widen the main passage and important arteries of the ant nest.
Expand deeper underground to create a large, specialized nest chamber for the juniper.
It took seven or eight days to complete the expansion project.
The juniper larvae also ate up all the force food worth 1,500 raw stones and spun silk into cocoons.
Not surprisingly, it will take about half a month to complete the emergence and emerge from the cocoon.
