Astral Cockroach

The members of Li Bamboo Peak were very curious about the tap water system.

Now that Banbu had the ability, he planned to build more water pipes to bring tap water to every household.

The vertical height of Jinping Mountain Range is about 500 meters, and the vertical height of Li Bamboo Peak is about 800 meters.

From the foot of the mountain, the linear distance from the cave where Big Bear lived to the reservoir at the top of the mountain was about 2.5 kilometers. If tap water pipes were used directly, the water pressure would be too strong and difficult to use.

The plan was to set up two water storage tanks in the middle and upper layers where Banbu lived and the middle and lower layers where Fengling lived, to transport water downwards in sections.

Using metal abilities to transform soil and rocks into metal to manufacture water storage tanks was too costly, and the materials needed to lay the water pipes were also considerable.

A relatively easier way was to mine iron ore and refine pure iron. Banbu only needed to use his metal abilities to create stainless steel and shape it as desired.

The iron smelting furnace was built below the limonite deposit.

King Rat led five bamboo rat warriors, including Mazhu, to mine and transport the iron ore.

Banbu led Hongdao, Duzhu, and Hongmi to cut and transport limestone.

In just a few days, the materials were ready, and they began to make charcoal and smelt iron.

The refined pure iron was condensed into thick iron pillars, 2 meters long and 0.3 meters in diameter, which Big Bear was responsible for carrying back to Li Bamboo Peak.

With the materials prepared, the next step was to manufacture the water storage tanks.

The design was a cube with a length, width, and height of 3 meters. A pit was dug, and the tank was embedded 2 meters underground, with only 1 meter exposed above the ground.

Two water tanks.

Next was laying the water pipes, which also required digging deep into the soil so that the pipes could run underground, avoiding any impact on the original mountain scenery of Li Bamboo Peak.

The water storage capacity of the reservoir at the top of the mountain and the water tanks was limited, so this water was mainly used for irrigating the plants on the mountain and should not be wasted.

Fearing that the members on the mountain would use up all the water if they were happy, they were warned to conserve water.

Past experience had proven that verbal warnings alone were ineffective. Therefore, water meters and valves were installed at the outlets of the water tanks, stipulating the amount of water to be used every 5 days, with Datou responsible for supervision. If anyone's water consumption exceeded the limit, the water supply would be cut off.

After a whole month of hard work, a set of automated water supply facilities was completed.

From then on, Datou could save a lot of trouble in fetching and transporting water for managing the territory.

Other members were purely curious and happy. When there was only one water pipe, they were all very curious and wanted to play with it in various ways. Now that every household had one, and it was connected directly to their cave entrances, it was no longer so rare. After playing with it for a few days, the novelty wore off, and they were no longer so enthusiastic.

......

It was now late autumn.

The bamboo fruits and bamboo rice on the mountain were gradually entering the ripening season.

This was another busy season.

Currently, Li Bamboo Peak had six kinds of God-given bamboo, including green bamboo, rain bamboo, small fire bamboo, steel bamboo, mud bamboo, and secluded bamboo. Half a month before the fruits ripened, in addition to regular swamp water irrigation, it was also necessary to use a large amount of raw stones, ground into powder, to replenish their original power and ensure the quality of the fruits.

These tasks had always been the responsibility of Datou, who was already busy enough.

There were also a large number of ordinary bamboo lifeforms on the mountain, whose fruits ripened a few days earlier than the God-given species. Datou was too busy, so Xiangpu directed the bee colony to pick them.

This kind of busyness was limited to Datou and Xiangpu.

The other members on the mountain were relatively idle, just eating their fill. Bamboo fruits were not suitable for preservation, and there was no point in preserving ordinary bamboo fruits, so they simply worked hard to eat them all while they were fresh.

Bamboo rice could be dried and stored in spider silk bags for slow consumption in winter and early spring.

Buzzing of bees.

Swarms of big-headed ants coming and going.

The most simple and primitive style, the only tap water pipes with a modern touch were buried underground, with only the heads exposed.

Beneath the natural tranquility was hidden unimaginable luxury and prosperity.

Raw power plants all over the mountains, endless raw power food!

Many times, when Banbu looked at this and thought about it, he always felt like he had entered a dreamlike fairyland.

However, this was not a dream, it was real, and it was built up little by little from scratch by himself.

Whenever he looked at this and thought about it, a sense of pride and joy arose spontaneously.

He really hoped that this beauty could continue forever!

If it was a dream, then please don't wake up.

......

"Banbu! Banbu!"

Late at night, in the midst of a sound sleep, Baizhu's urgent call came from outside the cave.

"What's the matter?" Banbu was a little annoyed.

Baizhu said nervously: "Banbu, that tree spirit seems to be waking up soon!"

Banbu was startled, drilled out of the cave, and shouted: "Notify King Rat, we'll go over there now!"

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."

Baizhu gnashed his teeth.

Soon, King Rat quietly sneaked up the mountain.

"Banbu!" King Rat greeted.

Banbu directly unfolded his pulse wings and said: "Don't talk nonsense, come up, let's go!"

King Rat and Baizhu jumped onto Banbu's carapace.

Flapping his wings and ascending into the air, he sped away.

King Rat and Baizhu were extremely nervous. As soon as they landed, they immediately jumped off Banbu's carapace and stood in an equilateral triangle with Banbu, surrounding the boundary tree, which was only 0.6 meters high, assuming a fighting stance. The Soul-Seizing Secret Technique was prepared, and black mist surged from their forelimbs.

Seeing this, Banbu couldn't help but laugh and comforted: "Don't panic! It's not awake yet."

"Banbu, it's about to wake up!" Baizhu reminded.

King Rat also said: "Yes, the frequency of soul fluctuations is intensifying. This is a sign of awakening from slumber."

"Is that so? It's just a tree, there's no need to be so nervous." Banbu was much calmer, spreading out his mental power and carefully scanning the small plant in front of him.

"Ee ya!"

Vaguely, he seemed to sense a segment of soul will!

Banbu was startled and quickly retracted his mental power, quickly maintaining his composure, and shouted: "Baizhu, use your mental power to investigate."

Baizhu took two steps back and shook his head vigorously, saying: "Banbu, you want to harm me! It's awake."

"I know it's awake." Banbu said: "There shouldn't be any danger, try it."

Baizhu resolutely said: "I won't do it, let King Rat try."

King Rat glared at Baizhu, subconsciously took two steps back, and suggested: "Banbu, let's just do it directly and give it a taste of suffering first."

"Don't do it, it hasn't shown any hostility." Banbu said dejectedly: "Two wastes, forget it, I'll do it myself."

After speaking, he separated a wisp of mental power and cautiously probed towards the boundary tree plant.

"Ee ya..."

Another segment of soul will followed Banbu's mental power directly into his soul.

Banbu subconsciously raised his forelimbs, and the Soul-Seizing Secret Technique was activated, with black mist surging.

"Soul-Seizing Secret Technique! This is a human race's unique skill!" The tree spirit transmitted a segment of terrified will, stuttering and asking:

"You, you, you are a Zerg? ! Beast, Beast race? A Beast race that has mastered the human race's unique skill?"

"You, who are you... where is this?"

Something's not right!

The way of will inquiry is not right, and the tone is not right either.

The boundary tree spirit, which has experienced endless years, should have a will full of "vicissitudes" and "wisdom", rather than a "childlike" silly question.

Also, where is the soul pressure that a Star Realm-level life should have? Soul pressure cannot be hidden.

"This is Jinping Mountain Range, my name is Banbu, the guy with a tuft of silvery-white fluff on his head is called Baizhu, and the other guy who is pure black is called King Rat."

After Banbu finished answering, he knowingly asked: "What's your name?"

"My name is..." The tree spirit thought for a long time before uncertainly saying: "My name is Tata?"

"That's right, your name is Tata." Banbu said: "Now I'll ask you, where is this? What exactly happened to the spaceship you were on?"

"Isn't this Jinping Mountain Range? You just told me." The tree spirit asked in confusion: "Your name is Banbu? How do you know my name is Tata? The spaceship I was on..."

Speaking, he seemed to fall into reminiscence and contemplation.

Banbu's mood suddenly turned gloomy.

Pretending to be stupid? And still pretending to be tender?

Banbu shouted sharply: "Baizhu, King Rat, move your claws and give it a taste of suffering!"
