Fortunately, everyone gathered their feet quickly, otherwise they would have lost their footing and rolled down, because at this time, the terrain changed abruptly, and there was a super valley below. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With human vision, the size of 50 football fields, the valley is full of white mushrooms. In the dark, there is no edge as far as the eye can see, and it is densely crawled with hard-working termites.

Some of them look like they're farming. Some are mouth-to-mouth feeding, and they look like they are happy and indisputable.

Seeing that both humans and ants were dumbfounded, they were greatly moved by this warm scene.

What a paradise.

Unexpectedly, in the basement of the castle, such a large concave valley could be hidden, and Princess Natsuba found that it was 10 times larger than their mushroom plantation.

"Come, let's go down!"

Although Termite Fang couldn't see everyone's expressions, her sensitive antennae could sense everyone's shocked mood at the first time, which made her even more excited.

Who doesn't boast about my hometown.

……

With a slope of almost 90 degrees, it is of course a flat ground for termites and ants with hooked toes, and for humans wearing sneakers, it is the equivalent of a cliff that will fall into a meatloaf if you are not careful.

Yu Qiyun and the others had to lie tightly on the backs of the ants Jasmine and Cuihua, and went down the slope, while Princess Xia Ye flew directly and waited at the bottom of the valley.

As soon as everyone reached the bottom of the valley, a strong smell of rotten wood came to their faces, and the ants said that the three humans were immediately smoked and crumbling, and they listened to the termite Fang Xingfu say:

"It smells so good, don't you say?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" everyone grimaced. Immediately gave her a satisfactory answer, which fully reflects the professionalism of a group of VIP guests.

The huge valley floor is filled with wood and sawdust, forming an undulating shape like a wave, and it is covered with hairy white fungus.

Yu Qiyun swept it with a flashlight and found that in addition to a large number of adult ants with brown heads and white bodies, there were also many small termites with white heads and white bodies as white as snow.

"This is my cute little sister!" Termite Fang smiled warmly, and suddenly trembled her tentacles, "Little guys, come over with your mouth and mush and give the guests a taste!"

"Okay, okay! Sister Fang. ”

There was a jubilant sound in their ears, but Yu Qiyun and the others listened to it, but their hairs stood on end.

The little termite sisters who were working immediately obediently arched the mushrooms on the wood with their small mouths, and each picked up a piece of rotten wood in their mouths, and surrounded them with their farts, and in the face of the delicious food offered by these eager little masters, the humans and ants on the scene could not cry and laugh.

They couldn't eat this moldy wood.

"Our leafcutter ants eat the opposite of you termites, we don't eat wood, we only eat mushrooms (fungi) from wood. "Princess Xia Ye had to recruit from the truth.

"Yes, it's really a pity, although the wood you grow is very attractive," Li Yourao also quickly explained, "but we really don't have the habit of eating wood." ”

"Oh, that's a shame!"

Termite Fang and her group of little sisters who are as white as snow are disappointed. It's a pity that guests can't eat such a delicious thing!

……

"Can you let us taste the mushrooms on your wood?" In order to dilute the embarrassing atmosphere, Princess Xia Ye hurriedly proposed to come to someone's vegetable garden and eat nothing, which would make the owner very embarrassed, not to mention that this termite Fang is still a very vain owner.

The termite Fang was really overjoyed, patted the antennae, asked the little termite to put the broken wood back, used his mouth to pick up the mushroom that had been arched before, and came back again.

Termite feeding has always been mouth-to-mouth.

Princess Natsuba and Ant Jasmine had no choice but to stick their teeth out, catch the mushrooms in the mouths of the little ones, and then eat them in large gulps.

The crunchy chewing sound made human beings drool. It's a pity that the rice balls are not around, otherwise as soon as the small pot is put and the soup is cooked, the taste must be refreshing and crooked.

Suddenly, the ants covered their stomachs together, and they spit out the mushrooms they had eaten in their mouths, which were so unpalatable! They endured it for a long time, but they couldn't bear it anymore.

"You guys?"

Termite Fang's expression was wonderful.

"I'm really sorry. Princess Natsuba smiled and said, "The taste of the mushrooms you grow on the wood is really different from the mushrooms grown on our leaves. ”

"Yes, Sister Fang, it's not that your mushrooms are not delicious, but we are not used to eating them for a while. ”

Ant Jasmine hurriedly echoed on the side.

"Yes, that's right. "Three humans together.

Termite Fang was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly realized that she was praising her family too much, and her pride was greater than the guest's ability to bear.

"Oh, the Queen Mother must be in a hurry!"

Cleverly found himself a step down, led the group up the valley, and continued on the road.

……

After about 15 minutes, we finally arrived at the destination of the trip, the lowest level of the termite castle.

Remember that at the bottom of the leafcutter ant nest, there are three rooms: a garbage room, a toilet, and a cemetery.

On the lowest floor of the basement of the termite castle, there are also three rooms: the queen's bedroom and maternity room, the princess's (prince's) bedroom, and the nursery room.

In the termite castle, due to the advanced ventilation system, there is no need to generate air flow exchange through garbage, corpses, etc., so although they also have toilets, garbage dumps and cemeteries, they no longer have more air conditioning functions. The location is no longer the bottom, but close to the middle and upper part.

In the architectural layout of termites.

At the bottom of the nest is the core and safest place of the castle, where the present of the tribe, the queen, and the future of the tribe, the princess, live here.

……

Just walked to the corner of the lowest intersection.

A tall black shadow suddenly pounced, causing everyone to scream in fright, and they all took a few steps back,

Yu Qiyun hurriedly used a small flashlight to shine, and everyone immediately saw a strange ant up to 3 centimeters high blocking the intersection, not only the whole body was dark brown, but the appearance was completely different from ordinary termites.

Other termites are all brainshells that shake their heads, and her head is not only not large, but the proportions are small, and what is even more strange is that she has a pair of black and large black eyes, which are bright.

It was precisely because of her eyes that when the flashlight shone on her, she squeaked, which scared everyone again.

The brown ant in front of her has no wings, it is definitely not a princess and a prince, and her height is much larger than that of ordinary termites, Yu Qiyun and the three of them quickly made an accurate judgment, this must be the queen.

Your Majesty Queen Baiyun!

The three humans hurriedly bent down to say hello.

"Queen?"

The brown ant and the termite bug looked at each other, and suddenly burst into laughter, almost out of breath, and at the end, the termite Fang gasped and said:

"You're mistaken, he's my dad!"

"What...... Old... Dad?"

The faces of the three humans were stunned, as far as they knew, in the ant tribe, after the wedding flight, the queen's husband always reported to Mother Earth as soon as possible, how come in the termite tribe, the queen's husband, you are still alive?

Thinking of this, Princess Xia Ye and Ant Jasmine, the hard-working ant children who have not had a father since they were children, have envy and jealousy and infinite nostalgia for their father on their faces. (To be continued.) )
