Chapter 109: A Visit to the Lord of Mount Faber
At the top of Li Zhufeng, only a third of the water stored in the dark reservoir dug into the interior of the mountain is stored, and the dry season is about to turn into a drought, when a torrential rainstorm suddenly arrives, accompanied by lightning and strong winds.
Torrential winds and rain have passed, and the sultry temperature has dropped significantly, which means that the height of summer is coming to an end.
Banbu fell into a deep sleep.
……
The L7 Intermediate Warrior, about 200 in length, has a large number of brownish spots on his pitch-black carapace due to the recent devouring of too much high-quality Force food that strengthens his fire abilities.
Put away the peach life seed that has just been bred, and after some entanglement between the yellow peach and the green bamboo seed, choose the green bamboo as the life seed to breed.
"Big head?"
Zebra drummed and called out.
Opening up the depths of the ant hill inside the cave, the big head shouted happily, "Banbu, you are awake!" ”
Immediately after, the big head emerged from the ant, staring curiously at the maroon spots on Zebu's body.
Banbu asked, "Big head, how many days have I been asleep this time?" ”
The big head thought for a moment and said, "There is still half a day left, which is a full two days. ”
"I'm still in a bit of a hurry." The zebra shakes the antennae.
Without commanding, the big head instructed the worker ants to take out the stored jerky and deliver it to Banbu.
Banbu ate to recover his consumption, and at the same time asked, "Big head, are all the life plants on the mountain okay?" ”
Datou said: "Last night, there was a strong wind again, and many hemp bamboos on the mountain were blown off by the wind. ”
Banbu asked, "Is my Ma Zhu life seed okay?" ”
The big head said: "Banbu, the hemp bamboo life seed has also been scraped off two bamboo poles." ”
Zebra depressed.
Trees attract wind, especially in the mountains where the wind is stronger, and this particularly tall bamboo species is not suitable for survival.
Regain some stamina and get out of the cave to check.
The early growth of the bamboo species is a little slow, and only 4 bamboo poles have been born so far, and the weakest two have been blown down by the wind.
The big head asked, "Zebrabu, what should I do?" Do you want to cut it off? ”
Banbu looked at it carefully, the bamboo pole was just toppling, not broken, not dead, thought for a while, and said, "Don't do it for the time being, they can still provide nutrients for the underground stems, let's cut them down next spring." ”
The big head was like a little butler, and continued to ask: "Banbu, what about those ordinary hemp bamboos that have fallen down the mountain?" Do you want to stay too? ”
Madara said: "It doesn't matter how many bamboo poles are broken by ordinary hemp bamboo, cut them down and throw them into the biogas digester. ”
"Okay." The big head immediately waved its tentacles and issued a command to the worker ants.
Banbu asked, "Big Head, how many ants are in your colony?" ”
The big head replied: "It's almost 1000, and after I became an intermediate warrior, the development rate of ant eggs has decreased significantly. ”
At present, the big head is an L1 intermediate warrior with a body length of about 35, the body length of the worker ants under its command ranges from 5 to 20, and the body length of a few soldier ants reaches about 30.
Large heads can lay eggs, and the eggs hatch into new worker ants or soldier ants, but the colony does not grow fast enough because the early worker and soldier ants will age and die.
……
Banbu took the big head to inspect the territory, confirmed that there were no other problems, flew to the bottom of the mountain, informed the wind chimes, and went down the mountain with the wind chimes.
After a 10-day dry season test, it was confirmed that the reservoir was able to store water.
Banbu began to plan for the construction of a large pond.
"Wind chimes, in the next season, there will be more rain, which is not suitable for digging soil. I plan to cut down trees and clear a clearing of land to transplant large bamboo species such as hemp bamboo, moso bamboo, and peony bamboo from the mountain. ”
The wind chime received the reward of 100 rough stones of the spotted cloth, but did not do much work, and was a little reluctant to go, and when he heard the words, he agreed: "The temperature in autumn is suitable, the rain is abundant, and it is very suitable for transplanting all kinds of large bamboo species." Zebrabu, when are you going to start? ”
Madara preached: "Start today. ”
Wind Chime asked; "Where to start?"
"Starting with the location of the pond, of course, we will first clear the surrounding trees and shrubs. ”
Wind Chime said cheerfully: "No problem, I'll start here." ”
Madara said: "Wind Chimes, you are busy first, I will go out for a trip, and I may not be back until tomorrow." ”
Wind Chimes asked, "Where to go?" ”
"I have just checked, and the fruit of the seed given by the god of green bamboo will ripen in about 30 to 40 days. I need to go to the Yabai Mountains and let the owner of the Faber Mountains know. ”
Wind Chime thought for a moment and advised, "Banbu, the road is far away, you should be careful." ”
……
Banbu didn't go straight to the Yabai Mountains, but found the big bear first.
In summer, all kinds of fresh fruits ripen and the seeds are exposed when they fall to the ground and rot. The bear has nothing to do all day long, so Banbu lets him walk in the mountains and forests to try his luck.
Maybe luck will break out and pick up a god-given seed?
In the vast jungle, there must be a god-given seed born, however, the area is too large, and the probability of finding it is extremely low, infinitely approaching zero.
Naturally, the big bear did not harvest.
Banbu traveled to the swamp again, absorbing the spiritual power overflowing from the metal core, and finally flew over the Geumgang River and entered the territory of the Black and White Cockroach tribe.
Through the vast swamps, undulating hills, a majestic mountain range stretches across the mountain, and there is no shortage of peaks that are taller and bigger than Li Zhu Peak, reaching into the sky, even in summer, the top of the mountain is still covered with snow.
Under the efforts of generations of mountain owners in the Yabai Mountains, the plants in the mountains are mainly cypress, pine and cedar, and there are only a few shrubs and herbaceous plants.
The warriors of the black-and-white cockroach tribe who live in the Yabai Mountains choose their species, and they also use various cypresses, pines, and cedar trees as the main species.
The insect race has no cultural heritage at all, the vocabulary is lacking, and the names are very arbitrary, and the main peak of the Yabai Mountain Range is called Yabai Peak.
It is said that Yabai Peak is a small and inconspicuous mountain with abundant force.
There is a conspicuous sign that a large area of scaly-leaved araucaria is planted at the foot of the mountain, and it is said that the black-and-white cockroach tribe spent a large amount of rough stones to introduce high-quality tree species from the southern long-leaf kingdom, distributed to various mountain ranges, and cultivated on a large scale.
This kind of cedar tree, the biggest feature is that it is tall, it grows for 50 years before it is considered an adult, the height is generally more than 20,000, and even can reach about 40,000.
Banbu flew at a gallop in the air, looking down, the vast green forest and sea, how can you tell the difference?
The easiest way: Fly along the mountains to find the territory of a high-ranking warrior of the Black and White Cockroach tribe, explain the purpose, and ask for the detailed location.
"Zebra!"
From a distance, the lord of Faber Mountain sensed the arrival of Banbu, seemed a little excited, and took off into the air.
"Lord of Faber Mountain!" Banbu greeted politely, but his eyes were attracted by the mountain peaks ahead.
Yabai Peak is indeed very short.
To be precise, Banbu was attracted by a cedar tree that grew on the ridge of a mountain range, and it was the first time he had seen such a tall tree with his own eyes. It should be the life of the lord of Faber Mountain, a scaly-leaved Araucaria!
They are almost reaching the mountainside of Yabai Peak, with a height of far more than 40,000, and it is difficult to visually determine how high it is. The branches are luxuriant, and it is easy to mistake it for a small mountain peak when viewed from a distance.
The Lord of Faber Mountain noticed Banbu's horror and said proudly, "Banbu, are you interested in Araucaria spp. In the future, if you are promoted to the official mountain master, I will give you a seed as a gift. ”
Banbu came back to his senses and joked, "Lord Faber Mountain, you can give me a seed right now." ”
The lord of Faber Mountain said: "Banbu, it's not that I'm stingy, I'm afraid that your current size won't be able to swallow the seeds of the scaly-leaved Araucaria." ”
The flowering period of Araucaria sylvestris is close to half a year, and the fruit takes two years to grow before it matures. The pine tower is oval-ovate, with a length and diameter of about 120, which can be called a giant. Each pine tower contains about 15 to 20 pine nuts, and the length of the pine nuts is about 40. Banbu is currently only about 200 years long, and he will definitely not be able to swallow it, let alone an intermediate warrior, even a high-level warrior can't do it, and he must be promoted to the mountain master level.
