After the fart spirit left, although the wizard's hexagram showed that the expedition of salt peanuts could not be carried out, the crisis of the Shangxuan Empire's attack was lifted.

For some reason, Xiao Ran couldn't help but suspect the wizard. This wizard is from the Shangxuan Empire, and the content of his current prophecies and divinations is related to the Shangxuan Empire.

He couldn't even answer the dream of a divine fish. And this time, the so-called solution to the crisis is to build an altar, which is obviously beneficial to the wizard.

But Xiao Ran couldn't figure out where this wizard was strange. Forget it, just continue to think about the second-generation juicer!

Morning.

Xiao Ran slept a lot, and when he opened the curtains, the worker ants had already started their work.

"Hey~zol~"

"Hey~ya~zol~"

"Hey~zol~"

"Hey~zol~"

"Hey~ya~zol~"

Xiao Lin shouted the trumpet, while the worker ants carried the soil and grass roots, and were building the five modules of the second phase of the Cloud Palace. The morning is really beautiful, and the sunlight shines into Xiao Ran's room, bringing a touch of warmth to autumn.

The second-generation juicer needs a piece of bamboo, a fulcrum, a water pipe, a lever, a stone scoop, and a scoop.

The water pipes have been solved by the four brothers of the Shi family, the stone scoops and scoops have also been prepared, the levers can be replaced by ready-made wood in the sea buckthorn wasteland, and the bamboo can be cut down, which is a very difficult job for ants.

Humans use machetes and saws to cut bamboo, but what do ants use to cut bamboo?

In addition, to use this long section of bamboo, which can drive the movement of the lever where the scoop is located, the workmanship should be at least fine, and it must not be sloppy.

Grandmasters, Wizards, Worker Ants, Soldier Ants, Saints?

Xiao Ran has gone through the current use of the Zerg in his heart, but none of them can shake the huge bamboo. The work of cutting a section of bamboo is like asking someone without any tools to cut down a telephone pole.

No, no, no, without any tools, it is difficult for humans to handle even a single piece of bamboo.

Xiao Ran pondered whether he could let the worker ants use tools, but in addition to having a plier on their mouth, it was difficult for the worker ants to exert force in other places. How can there be such a small tool for the worker ants to use!

In the bamboo link, Xiao Ran was at a loss.

So, Xiao Ran called the wizard and said, "Wizard, we need to do a great project now to deal with this new three-section sugar cane. One of the projects was to require a bamboo piece of about 120 centimeters. I wonder if a sorcerer can do divination, by what means, by what means, and by what means, how can it be an auspicious day?"

"Ahem...... Ahem......" the wizard said, "I'm afraid the old man can't do anything, if this salt and peanut hexagram is not lifted, the other divination will not be able to proceed normally." The wizard said.

Ahh

At this time, Porco Rosso stepped forward and said, "For large black ants like us, there are no ants that can handle tall plants such as giant trees and bamboos, and some grass blades and grass stalks, which are almost the same. However, when I was in the Xuan Empire, I fought against a white, somewhat transparent ant race that was very good at eating large plants like trees. ”

"White ants?" Xiao Ran asked.

"Yes, that race is white, and they are blind. ”

Isn't this termite, which people have always regarded as a harmful species, gnawing on houses and eating everything in response. However, the termites are blind, but this is the first time Xiao Ran has heard of it.

"By the way, why is the Shangxuan Empire at war with them?" Xiao Ran asked.

"That's a long story. The termite colony is not far from the Shangxuan Empire, they are irritable, once our Shangxuan Empire's worker ants accidentally broke into their territory, they directly killed the worker ants. The queen ant thought that they were all ant tribes, and although their skin colors were different, they still sent messengers to make a final communication with them, hoping that they would admit their mistakes and repent of their mistakes, and the prime minister guessed what they said?" Porco Rosso explained in detail.

"Say what?"

"They said they didn't belong to us ants, but to cockroaches! So the queen was furious and went to war to avenge the innocent deaths of the worker ants. Porco Rosso said.

What! Termites are a family of cockroaches? It's completely impossible, I remember that in the textbook, it was written about ants. He also deeply remembered that the teacher once said that the ants destroyed in the anthill are likely to be termites.

But to deal with something like bamboo, it seems to be feasible if there are termites to help. They can even gnaw away trees, let alone bamboo.

It's just that the group of termites that Porco Rosso said are farther away than the Shangxuan Empire, and if you want to visit them, you must pass through the territory of the Shangxuan Empire.

Now under the persimmon tree, there are soldiers of the Shangxuan Empire in ambush, and how to access this group of termites has become a difficult problem.

It seems that all the projects are stuck here in the Shangxuan Empire, and if the Shangxuan Empire does not solve it one day, then all the projects will be difficult to progress. Thinking of this, Xiao Ran decided to find a way to solve the obstacle of the Shangxuan Empire first.

But after the last civil strife in the Shangxuan Empire, there are still nearly 4,000 ants, and this level of ant colony is not something that can be shaken by the sea buckthorn insect clan with only more than 100 ants.

"This termite colony is farther away than the Shangxuan Empire, and to contact them, you have to go through the Shangxuan Empire, but now the strength of the Shangxuan Empire is several times that of ours...... Alas!" Xiao Ran sighed.

The wizard said, "Ahem...... The prime minister does not need to be distressed, the hexagram shows that the crisis of the Shangxuan Empire will soon pass. ”

"Soon?"

"Ahem...... Yes. Maybe three or five days, maybe three or five months. The wizard said.

"March and May are also very fast!"

Poof! Xiao Ran a mouthful of old blood.

"Ahem...... This specific time hexagram cannot be shown. ”

"That hexagram also doesn't show that after the crisis of the Shangxuan Empire has passed, can the Salt Peanut Expedition go smoothly?" Xiao Ran asked the wizard.

"This ...... Ahem...... This doesn't show up. Ahem...... However, the prime minister can rest assured that the hexagram shows that the Shangxuan Empire will have a very big catastrophe and will lose more than two-thirds of the ant number. The wizard said.

This...... Two-thirds of them, that's more than 2,000 ants...... This wizard was obviously a worker ant of the Shangxuan Empire, why didn't he care about the lives of the worker ants of the Shangxuan Empire......

"Two-thirds? I'm very strange, you used to be a highly respected wizard of the Shangxuan Empire, and the Shangxuan Empire treated you well, why didn't you tell them the news?" Xiao Ran asked.

"Ahem...... What does it make if you tell them or not, these things are bound to happen, and it doesn't matter if they know it or not. The wizard said.

“......”

"Prime Minister, ahem...... That's why I'm here in the Sea Buckthorn Wasteland!" said the wizard.

“......”

Xiao Ran secretly cursed in his heart, you ants, this kind of thing that has a result first and then a cause! What kind of fame is this wizard doing! Xiao Ran always felt that this wizard was making trouble, otherwise why, everything about the Shangxuan Empire was told by the wizard, but about other things, the wizard didn't predict anything.
