The dragon cypress had not eaten for six or seven days, and was so hungry that he hunted a half-sized boar cub and brought it back to the cave.

Mo Lan: "Long Bai, when did you come over?" ”

Long Bai: "At the agreed time, of course. ”

"Oh-"

Mo Lan: "Is it raining over there?" I had three torrential rains on this side of the hill, and I was almost on the verge of flooding. ”

Cypress: "Yes. There was a lot of rain this year, and there were two heavy rains on Xianglan Mountain, and another light rain the day before I came here. ”

Mo Lan: "Oh! A rare year of wind and rain. ”

"Yes."

Long Bai asked, "Mo Lan, why didn't you wait for me to come over and evolve in a deep sleep?" It's too dangerous. ”

Mo Lan: "I felt that I was going to evolve a few days in advance, I made some preparations, and I waited for two more days, thinking that you were going to come, but I couldn't hold on, so I fell asleep." ”

"What if I'm delayed and don't make it in time?" Long Bai observed the cave.

The silk bag was empty.

Melan's Force food has been eaten.

The Force food worth 2,000 rough stones helped Mo Lan save about half a year's time.

Pretty cost-effective.

The spider silk bag is empty, and this trip to search is definitely fruitless.

If there is a harvest, Mo Lan has already said it.

There's no need to ask.

Concentrate on eating.

Mo Lan talked a lot and asked, "Long Bai, how are you digging the pond?" ”

Long Bai said depressedly: "It's not very smooth. The second large pond was flooded twice and ran aground. I was digging the third pond planned for the south, and it was also flooded once, so I had no choice but to dig a drainage channel for it first, and it had just been dug up. ”

"That's unlucky......"

Mo Lan wanted to laugh, but suddenly became eager again, urging: "Long Bai, eat quickly." Eat and leave. I miss home. ”

"Good!"

Long Bai also did not worry about the territory, and after eating enough, he took control of the throne and set off for the return trip.

……

"Mo Lan, are the green quircters delicious?"

On the way, Long Bai asked.

Mo Lan: "Delicious~"

Mo Lan: "I just remember that it was delicious, I forgot what it tasted like." ”

Long Bai: "I still have 10 there, and I'll give you 5 when I go back." ”

Give some benefits first,

Long Bai then expressed his thoughts, saying, "I only sowed 8 of the 10 green tree seeds that Fall gave me last year, leaving 2 behind. When I was promoted to the 9th age stage, I used up 1, and there was still 1 left, Mo Lan, you use it as a life seed. ”

Mo Lan: "No need, right? The growth of the green tree is too slow, and the bluegrass is still ......."

Long Bai: "We don't lack the output of an ordinary bluegrass seed now. ”

Long Bai: "Like the big-fruited hemlock, let's sow together." The two trees are next to each other, and I usually command the worker ants to help you take care of them. ”

Mo Lan tilted her head and thought for a while, and happily agreed: "Okay! ”

…

…

…

The throne of domination is close to Xianglan Mountain, and falls straight to the small pond.

"Azure...... Well? ”

Long Bai greeted, and then his spirit froze.

On the first broad leaf of the blue god-given seed, there are four small frogs that have just shed their tails.

"Wow!"

At the same time, Mo Lan noticed the existence of the frog, exclaimed, and shouted:

"Dragon, frog! Fast! Slaughter them! ”

"Mo Lan, don't worry!"

"Beware of breaking the blue leaves."

The dragon cypress controlled the throne and slowly approached.

A confused question came from the blue mind.

"Long Bai, what's wrong?"

Long Bai: "It's all right...... A few frogs have crawled on you, and I'll chase them away. ”

Long Bai and Mo Lan were afraid of hurting the blue leaves, so they didn't dare to act rashly.

As the throne approached, the four frogs jumped into the pond and swam to the shore.

The spiritual power swept over, and there were still five or six hidden in the grass by the pond.

To Long Bai's annoyance, the 12 soldier ants guarding the vicinity turned a blind eye to the frog's presence.

After going out for so many days, why didn't you guys starve to death?

Long Bai waved his tentacles and gave the order to kill the soldiers.

Zhan Lan felt Long Bai's killing intent and asked anxiously, "Long Bai, do you want to kill the frog?" ”

Cypress: "Yes. They will trample on your leaves. ”

Azure: "No......"

Zhan Lan: "Is it because Mo Lan doesn't like them?" ”

The dragon cypress waved its tentacles.

The soldier ants who were about to move stopped.

Long Bai lowered his head and groaned, raised his head, and said solemnly as never before: "Mo Lan! I understand. ”

Mo Lan was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "What do you understand?" ”

Long Bai: "I understand why the Creator Civilization perished. ”

Mo Lan: "Huh? ”

Mo Lan was stunned for a moment, and followed Long Bai's words and asked, "Why?" ”

Long Bai: "The creator civilization should be a pure water-based capable race. Their nature is also as soft as water. When other civilizations were ready to destroy it, it was destroyed. ”

Mo Lan thought for a moment and asked, "What does that have to do with these hateful frogs?" ”

Long Bai said: "Zhan Lan is different from the god-given seed of our natural god system, its nature is gentle and kind. Azure begged me not to kill these little frogs. ”

Mo Lan: "......"

Do you want to say this for a long time? Mo Lan said angrily: "The little frog will grow into a big frog, and the big frog will trample on the leaves when it jumps up!" ”

Long Bai: "Let's talk about it when I grow up." Zhan Lan watched them turn from tadpoles to frogs, and I hurt the killer in front of it, which was really not good. ”

Mo Lan turned her head angrily, her mind turned sharply, and she helped come up with an idea:

"Long Bai, I have a way! These frogs hide in the grass in the pond and eat bugs, right? You let the worker ants cut the grass. Without grass, there are no worms, and without worms, these frogs will naturally leave and ......"

It's so ruthless a praying mantis~

"Row ......"

Long Bai reluctantly agreed, quickly diverted the topic, and said: "Mo Lan, you haven't returned to the territory for 23 days, go and see Fruit Pandan." ”

…

…

…

Send off Mo Lan.

The dragon cypress stayed by the pond, and the more he thought about it, the stranger it became.

There are grasses and dense forests on both sides of the ditch, and food is abundant, and the 12 specialized soldier ants guarding the small pond are hunting for food by themselves, and they eat whatever they catch.

Why didn't they hunt the frogs that were close at hand?

The dragon cypress controls the rise of the throne and levitates high up, not disturbing the specialized soldier ants, silently observing them.

Two days later, I made a discovery,

Every morning and evening, the specialized soldier ants regularly form a team to forage for food, search everywhere, and when they reach other places, they will not hunt frogs, and even toads will be spared.

They used to eat very well, but this must have been the case recently.

Why?

Long Bai thought of the blue.

"Zhan Lan, can you command the Specialized Soldier Ants?"

"Can't ......"

"Why don't the soldiers who are guarding nearby stop hunting frogs?"

"I keep repeating with my mental power to stop them from harming frogs, and they won't hurt frogs anymore......"

"Mental power?" Long Bai questioned.

"Yes." Zhan Lan replied in the affirmative.

How is this possible?

Both worker ants and soldier ants are 'replicas' without soul and independent consciousness, and have no mental power.

How is it possible to communicate with an ant colony through mental power?

Long Bai turned his head and immediately used his spiritual power to give the order to "come over" to a special chemical ant not far away.

The specialized soldier ant was keenly aware of the fluctuation of mental power, and looked at Long Bai blankly, motionless.

Dragon cypress repeats.

No response.

Repeat.

The Specialized Soldier Ant simply ignored the dragon cypress.

Sure enough, no.

There are only two ways for the ant king to command the colony:

The first is the short-range pheromone signal command, which is more controllable;

The second is that the tentacles release invisible signal fluctuations and give instructions, which are released over a long distance.

Worker ants and soldier ants have no independent consciousness, no mental power, and cannot communicate with mental power, and naturally cannot use mental power to give instructions.

"Zhan Lan, is this your ability? Psychic power psychedelic control over other lifeforms? ”

"Abilities?"

There was a fluctuation of mental power in the blue that was confused.

Long Bai: "Azure, can you control the frogs so they don't jump into the pool?" ”

Zhan Lan: "I don't know ......"

Long Bai: "You try! ”

"Okay."

Zhan Lan agreed.

Start trying.

I tried for a long time, but nothing happened.

A few small frogs hunted small insects in the grass, and when they had eaten their fill, they jumped into the pond, jumped on the blue leaves, and squatted on the leaves to rest.

Frogs are ordinary living beings, and they can't detect mental power at all.

Long Bai suddenly had a guess:

- The ant colony is bred by the 'messengers' of the Throne of Domination.

- Azure is reborn by returning to zero on the throne of domination.

- Because of this relationship with the throne?

- It would be great if the blue could control the ant colony, let it command the digging pond on its own!

With a wave of its tentacles, the dragon cypress summoned all the worker ants resting in the distant hills and gathered next to the small pond.

"Zhan Lan, you can use your mental power to command the worker ants to try and let them dig the pond over there."

"Okay."

Zhan Lan repeatedly released his spiritual power and released the message of 'go dig a pond'.

After repeating it several times, the worker ants gradually became agitated and scurried around in a daze.

"Azure, it's okay...... Forget it. You can't command them. ”

Long Bai gave up directly.

Zhan Lan is indeed able to make the ant colony move through mental power, but the effect is too slow and needs to be repeated repeatedly, and it is completely unable to achieve precise command and carry out slightly more complex work.

In the future, Zhanlan will grow into a towering tree, and his spiritual power will grow, so maybe he will be able to do it.
