Chapter 257: The Ruins of Zikui Mountain
It took Long Bai and Mo Lan more than ten days to find the entrance to the treasure house of the Hanging Ridge Brown Stained Mantis Clan.
It turned out to be nothing.
There is no shimmering gold, no god-given wreckage left, only many murals can be seen in the entrance hall, which vividly record the various combat techniques of the mantis warriors.
It is a warlike tribe.
There is no gain.
The next stop is Zikui Mountain, the territory of the Flying Locust tribe.
The plain between the Jianlan Plain and the Hanlan Plain is also very easy to find, a large mountain with a slope of less than 30 degrees, and a lake under the mountain, where many mulberry trees grow.
Long Bai and Mo Lan had also come to this place before, collecting mulberry fruits and refining them to make ant honey.
Flying locusts like to eat mulberry leaves, and the cultivated plants are mainly mulberry trees, and there are many high-quality mulberry cultivated species left here.
This is where the mulberry trees that sow the banks of the Blue Reservoir come from.
"I didn't expect that! This place hides a great tribal treasure trove. ”
"The sea of trees in the former Zikui Mountain, but now it has fallen into a dilapidated and declining like this, it is really a sea of vicissitudes."
The throne of domination was docked on the shore of the lake, and Mo Lan looked at the mountain in front of him to make a speech.
After sighing, Mo Lan began to make trouble again, "Long Bai, this mountain doesn't seem to have a steep cliff, where is the right place to excavate?" ”
The dragon cypress had already surveyed the terrain when the throne was descending, and was pondering this question at this time.
"Let's make a hole horizontally on the mountainside facing the lake and check if there is any treasure in stock."
"Good!" Mo Lan flapped her wings and urged to start work.
Take off from the Throne and choose your position.
The dragon cypress digs a hole in the front.
Mo Lan used a fur bag to carry the earth in the rear.
The same thing is done a lot, skillfully cooperated, and efficient.
Five days later, a tunnel was dug inward to a depth of 80 meters, and finally encountered a stone wall with hardened soil ability.
Mt. Zikui is huge, and the treasure trove is hidden deep in the mountain.
The next step is to find the entrance to the treasure trove.
As is customary, it must be on the side facing the reservoir.
But there are no steep cliffs, it is difficult to determine the location of the excavation, and the dragon cypress can't think of a better way, so he can only find those relatively steep slopes, and Mo Lan will point out the location, and the dragon cypress will move its claws and dig straight down.
Practice has proved that this kind of exploration that does not involve the fluctuation of the Force, Mo Lan is also inaccurate, and he misses eleven points in a row.
The sun in the sky is getting blazing brighter and brighter.
Long Bai pinched the time to rush to Crimson Light Mountain to complete the harvest of the Scarlet Light God's Seed.
Then head northwest to Mt. Shiraii to inspect the growth of the seeds given by the god of Shirai, and at the same time complete the traveling merchant trade in early summer.
Explain to Sang and Bai Fan that there are many things this year, and the autumn trading will be suspended for a year.
Ghost Fan Mountain and Black Lotus Lake don't need to go directly.
Depart from Mt. Baekii and go straight to Mt. Zikui and continue digging.
The roar of lightning illuminates the night sky.
Early morning after a rainstorm.
The Throne of Domination stops on a steep slope near the top of the mountain.
The dragon cypress is in charge of digging.
Mo Lan was in charge of lifting the dirt on it.
Silent and tacit cooperation.
Under the scorching sun, it was another day.
Late at night, near the point of finishing work and resting, Long Bai's spiritual power swept to the side, let out a long breath, and muttered:
"Damn locusts, what do they think, open the entrance passage to the top of the mountain!"
"Found it?" Mo Lan whispered.
"Found it." Long Bai replied calmly and crawled out of the hole.
- Finally found.
Both Long Bai and Mo Lan were relieved and returned to the throne to rest and recover their strength.
In the middle of the night, the excavation was carried out again, and it was busy until early in the morning to clear the hole.
Passing through the zigzag entryway and entering the wide hall, a large number of dead branches and leaves are placed, and the air pours in, quickly charring and crushing.
The remnants of some kind of god-given seed of the mulberry tree.
On the left and right sides of the hall, two passages, spiraling downward.
Enter the left passage first, and at intervals there is a cave where the rough stones are stored, stacked with the remains of God-given seeds cut into pieces.
All the way through, nothing else was found.
Then enter the passage on the right, with the same layout, and at intervals there is a cave stacked with the relics of the gods' seeds.
Walking briskly all the way, the mental power scanned and checked, and there was no other discovery.
The two passages converge at the bottom of a circular cave with a diameter of about 30 meters.
In the center of the cave is a statue of a warrior of the locust tribe carved in brown and red rock, and the surrounding stone walls are carved with various patterns and texts, mainly to record the information of the territory and the cultivation of plants, and also to depict and record some important events that have occurred.
"Dragon Cypress!"
Moran raised his claws and pointed at the cave dome.
Long Bai followed and looked up.
Above are depicted three large trees, one tall and two short, all of which were undoubtedly the seeds of the royal gods offered by the tribe, and the relics in the cave were left behind.
The two dwarf trees dwell on the side, the gods-given seeds of unknown varieties of mulberry trees.
A tall tree is in the middle, the height of the tree is more than twice the seed of the mulberry tree, at first glance it looks like a southern jujube tree, look closely, it is clearly a southern jujube god-given seed!
Mo Lan: "Southern sour jujube? ”
Long Bai: "That's right! ”
Mo Lan's frustration was swept away, "Using the relics of the king-level Southern Jujube God-given seed as fertilizer, and irrigating the wild Southern Sour Jujube God-given seed in Nansour Jujube Mountain, the effect will definitely be very good!" ”
Lombyrin: "Theoretically. ”
Mo Lan: "Try it! ”
Long Bai: "Try it." ”
The wild god-given seed grows too slowly.
Originally, Long Bai had already decided to give up the god-given seed of Nansour Jujube, but since he had found the relics of his kind, he could cultivate it.
From Nansour Zao Mountain to Zikui Mountain, a round trip takes about four or five days, and it takes some time to transport, so as not to waste other resources.
Long Bai: "Mo Lan, we've been delaying in Zikui Mountain for a long time. Go, pack a few bags, and go back. ”
"Where's the shimmering gold?" Mo Lan was suddenly a little unwilling.
Needless to say, Shimmer Gold had most likely been taken away by a departing Flying Locust Insect King.
Long Bai was also unwilling, turned around, and swept his spiritual power towards the locust warrior sculpture in the cave, unable to find a single gap.
Stepping forward, he waved his claws to try to cut, and the king-level soil system ability solidified, and the tips of his toes slashed, leaving no trace.
The dragon cypress took off with its wings flapped and hung upside down on the dome, searching carefully but finding no hidden mechanism.
Mo Lan crawled along the rock wall of the cave, examined it carefully, and found nothing.
"Mo Lan, forget it." The dragon cypress landed.
"The good stuff was taken away."
Mo Lan was discouraged, and she didn't have much hope for the other 8 tribes that had been given by the Seed of the Night Fragrance God that had shimmering gold.
It is said that it is worth 100 million yuan, but in fact, I am afraid that not a single rough stone is worth it.
The seed given by the night incense god is also clear, so it is given away for free.
……
Long Bai and Mo Lan returned to the throne, took the spider silk bag, filled 6 bags of God-given remains, and set off to return to Xianglan Mountain.
Take a break and set off again.
……
The twilight was heavy.
The white willow galloped along the shore of the Black Lotus Lake, sinking abruptly, grabbed a herring, climbed in a straight line, the black shadow crossed, stopped suddenly, and landed vertically at the mouth of the ant's nest in the mountain range.
The worker ants swarmed up, divided the herring carp, moved it back to the ant nest, and fed it to the blue ants for refining.
It's rare that this year, the dragon cypress ant king has not come over to pick up Heiti for a long time.
In the woodland below the mountain, Heiti is directing the ant colony, working overtime to reclaim the wasteland, cut trees, dig up the roots, remove the hoeing grass, turn the soil, clear the gravel, raise ridges, and build fruit orchard seedlings.
Division of labor and cooperation, the white willow is responsible for hunting for the ant colony, flapping its wings and rising into the air to return to the lakeside, suddenly stagnant, volleying an upside flip and a rollover, facing the north, looking fixedly.
The familiar fluctuations of the Force come from far and near.
Soon, blue spots appeared in the field of vision.
The Throne of Dominion is heading this way.
The white willow's figure flickered and greeted him.
"Dragon Cypress Ant King...... ...... Melan"
"What about Heti? Got the rest, right? Long Bai asked.
“…… It's time to rest. ”
Bai Liu replied, adjusting his posture and flying on the side of the throne, and asked:
"Dragon Cypress Ant King, Mo Lan, are you going to take Heiti to the Southeast Desert?"
Mo Lan: "Yes. Dig up the rough stone, and we divide it into Heti. ”
Long Bai: "At most, half a year's work, before the winter, will definitely send Heiti back, and there will be nothing to do in the future, stay in Heilian Lake to plant trees." ”
"Oh-"
Bai Liu was a little happier when he heard this, and reported the good news: "Dragon cypress ant king, the blue tree is bearing fruit!" ”
