Chapter 6: Seeking the Foundation Fruit
Two days later.
Shen Yu was lying on a high slope, draped in leaves, looking down.
It was a forty-five-degree slope, strewn with white bones, and a pale cyan plant, similar to a fern, but covered with small purple flowers.
Ants the size of thumbs with a golden ring on their abdomen busily shuttled through the flowers.
They all had long, bee-like mouthparts, sucking nectar from the small purple flowers, and only when their bellies were swollen like balls did they staggered down the slope.
Not far away, there is a flat stone field, in the center of the stone field, stands a small tree more than three meters high, the small tree has no branches and no leaves, only on the top grows a basin-sized, Buddha's hand-like strange flower.
Under the small tree, there was a tall ant bag, and the ants came and went there.
After observing the meeting, Shen Yu cautiously crawled backwards, and after exiting for dozens of meters, he stood up and quickly burrowed into a bush.
"One hundred and ninety-four meters... At my current speed, it would take about nine seconds to go from top to bottom, and at least five seconds to pull up the little tree.
With the Loporosaurus, I don't have to pick them, but there are still 97 meters to the cliff ahead, and there are some rocks and shallow pits, and even if I move empty-handed, it will take me at least 12 seconds to run to the edge of the cliff!
In other words, it would take me twenty-six seconds to add up to the ideal state! The point is, that little tree grows on the ant bag, and after such a long time, I would have become a dry corpse..."
After pondering for a while, Shen Yu found that he still thought simply.
Originally, I thought that with the Luobao Dragon Shark, I would be able to get the opportunity here, but now it seems that it is still a little worse.
Those golden-ringed ants are not easy to mess with, don't look at the mouthparts, but the sharpness is incomparable, one bite down, not to mention their own fine skin and tender meat, even if it is a stone, you can chisel out a needle's eye, the key is that the number is still huge, and no one can stop it!
What to do?
That flower is actually not a flower, but a fruit, called the Leakless Fruit, also known as the Foundation Fruit, which is one of the few heavenly treasures here that can supplement the Yuan Yang and the innate qi.
Back then, it was only after the Sogo Immortal Emperor obtained this treasure that he had the opportunity to build a successful foundation and regain his life.
However, it was more than 20 years later, and this purple kite had been hollowed out and died by the golden-ringed ants, and the ant bag had been removed and abandoned.
Before that, he had been a savage for more than 20 years, dying nine times, relying on great perseverance and some opportunities, to survive with difficulty.
However, Shen Yu can't wait so many years!
Moreover, after having the Luobao Dragon Shark, he still has a certain chance to get the foundation fruit in advance, but he has to plan carefully!
After working in geology for so many years and getting used to surviving in the wilderness, Shen Yu had a strong hands-on ability, and soon came up with a way to get busy.
He first spent nearly a month running east and west, found a large pile of stones that exuded a blue luster, and carefully moved them to the top of the slope, each of which was placed about ten meters apart.
The IQ of the golden-ringed ant is not high, but it has a strong sense of territory, and in general, it will not climb out of the range of the purple iris cover, as long as it does not alarm them, the top of the slope is still very safe.
Then, it's time for the water mill.
More than a dozen miles away, he found a bush of sharp-leaved grass, a weed whose tendons dried up and were extremely tough and light enough to be used to weave long ropes.
It took another month, he weaved hundreds of ropes more than 100 meters long, and then returned to the top of the slope.
He tied the ropes firmly to the brown stones, and connected a few longer ones to each other, and then, with all his might, threw them forward, and as soon as he struck, he immediately turned and ran.
It didn't take long for the black pressure on a piece of golden-ringed ants to rush to the top of the slope, crawling around for a while, and not finding any intruders, before retreating.
And then, do it again.
After tossing back and forth for several days, half of the stones had been thrown.
Because he was in a high place, and now he had a lot of strength, and after identifying the target, most of these stones were close to the small tree, only half of them were a little farther away.
Moving the remaining stones one by one, and taking those long ropes with him, Shen Yu circled the boss and came to a cliff, where there was a deep pool of green water.
Along the crack in the stone above the deep pool, he moved the stones up again piece by piece, continued to tie them, and then, directly turned over the cliff, and threw it vigorously again.
The small tree on the edge of the cliff was less than a hundred meters, and he could still reach it with his current arm strength.
After throwing a piece, he immediately turned around and jumped off the cliff directly, with a height of nearly 100 meters, even if he dived vertically, he would be greatly impacted, but fortunately, after being washed by the Earth Spirit Stone Milk, his physical strength is not bad now, although he is a little dizzy, but it is not a big deal.
The golden-ringed ants are afraid of water, so it is naturally impossible to run to the waterhole below to find someone, but this time, they just looked around on the edge of the cliff for a while, and then dispersed.
Again, I had to climb the cliff, much slower, for seven days before I finished throwing all the remaining rocks.
Now there are only ropes left on the edge of the cliff...
After nearly three months of busy work, Shen Yu has completely changed.
After being watered by the earth spirit stone milk, his body was much burlier, and a thick beard had grown on his cheeks, coupled with the clothes made of small animal fur, except for the pair of brighter and brighter eyes and the straight bridge of the nose, he looked no different from a wild man.
After climbing the cliff for seven days, his movements became more and more skillful, and when the last stone was thrown, and after the routine investigation of the golden-ringed ants, he rested for a while, and then climbed up like a monkey with dexterity.
The cat bent over his waist and carefully checked the position of the stones to which the end of the rope was attached, and then sorted them all together, and found a boulder that had been selected and tied it firmly.
He took a deep breath, looked up and looked ahead, turned around and carried it violently, the stone that was more than three meters high and hugged by one person was originally half exposed outside the cliff, and then shook and shook again, and then fell backwards violently.
As a geological man, he had discovered before that there were a lot of polar magnetites scattered here, and they were extremely magnetic, and this was the one he picked up some time ago.
At this time, next to the small tree, as long as the pieces of polar magnetite are closer, they have been completely adsorbed together, and nearly 100 pieces are gathered together, and the magnetism formed may not be able to be pulled away even if a few big men try their best.
The stones thrown from above, all of which were implicated in long ropes, formed a large net in a mess, and at the other end, they attracted the polar magnetite thrown from the cliff side, and were dragged by the boulder and went straight back.
Shen Yu had already calculated the location before, and although the polar magnetite ore still deviated from its position a little, most of the landing points were very well distributed.
At this time, I dragged a pocket, just wrapped the small tree in the middle, and directly followed the momentum of the boulder's fall, dragging it over a distance of dozens of meters, only to be stuck by a protruding rock, and it was broken into two sections with a 'click'...
Below, there was a loud 'boom', and the water splashed everywhere, and Shen Yu had already rushed out with the force of the rebound after carrying the boulder.
Walking on the opposite side, in less than three seconds, he passed by the small tree, and then suddenly stopped, turned around and ran, a flat sand and a goose style, and fell towards the deep pool below.
It was only at this time that the golden ring ants reacted, and rushed out of the half-destroyed ant bag in a chaotic manner, and when they rushed to the edge of the cliff, where could they still see Shen Yu's figure?
Half an hour later, at the edge of the deep pool, a few aquatic plants shook gently, and Shen Yu drilled out of the water along the edge of the cliff.
In the cage on his waist, the Luo Baolong Shark turned its head and swallowed a ball of red essence into its stomach: "Shen Shen, it's delicious!"
Laying the foundation fruit, get it!
