Astral Ants

Ten Thousand Races Continent.

The location of the lizard kingdom is a vast and endless plain forest.

There are uplifted mountains on the plain, and 17 tribes of Chistink bugs, big and small, live close to the mountains.

The mountains inhabited by the Ligiri tribe are quite famous. All the peaks are broken at half-peak, and the broken parts can still be found at the foot of the mountain.

No matter how powerful the insect king is, it is impossible to break the mountain peak. It seems to be done by divine power, so it is named "Shendu Mountain Range".

Yunguan Mountain is located at the eastern end of the Shenduan Mountains. The natural force has reached about twice the concentration of the mainland's average force. It is a super rich place.

It is said that there is also a large-scale raw stone vein, but due to the closedness of the tribe, no rough stones have flowed out from the Liji bug tribe, so there is no way to confirm it.

Like most of the mainland's top Zerg tribes, Yunguanshan set the time for traveling merchants to trade in the golden autumn harvest season every year.

Bad weather with lots of rain.

In front of the pass of the mountain pass.

On the wide and straight road in the plain forest.

One by one, the caravans from the five tribes of Yuanzi, Huancai, Zicai, Watase, and Whitelegs lined up and waited.

The number cannot be compared with Hidden Wing Mountain, but almost every caravan is a top-level caravan led by the Spider King.

Yudou, Caolong, and Nandi, looking at the battle in front of them, and seeing the dragonfly fighters circling and flying in the sky, all felt a little bit timid and wanted to retreat.

Bai Wei and Hong Tao didn't care, they skipped and ran ahead, stopping from time to time, looking at the caravan on the road as if inspecting.

"what!"

"this is not……"

Bai Wei stopped in front of a Watase flame spider caravan, took a look, and trotted towards the spider king in front of the team.

"The Spinning Spider King?!"

"……it's me."

The Spinning Spider King looked at it, a little confused: Who are you?

Where did the little spider come from?

And a little gold mantis?

The Spinning Spider King looked back and understood.

It is another group of little flame spiders who do not know the heights of the sky and the earth, and try to sneak into Yunguan Mountain.

but,

What about your goods?
Running over with empty armors one by one?
"Spinning Spider King, when will the transaction start?"

"Two days? Three days? The weather is bad, and there may be a delay of a day or two."

"Oh--"

Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, and enthusiastically suggested: "Spinning Spider King, let's go together."

Spinning Spider King: "..."

The lord-level flame spider behind the Spinning Spider King couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Which lineage of spiders are you from? What are you doing here at Yunguan Mountain?"

Bai Wei: "The lineage of Zeqi Spider King. My name is Bai Wei."

Bai Wei?

This name is familiar!

"Force honey?"

"Yes."

"What about your honey?"

"It's sold out."

"Then you came here to..."

"Looking for a deal."

"Oh……"

The lord-level Watase Flame Spider Youshang stopped talking.

The Spinning Spider King got impatient and waved his pincers to drive them away, "Every caravan of flame spider warriors entering Yunguan Mountain has reported. We can't help."

Didn't ask you to help?
Need your help?
"Let's go!"

Bai Wei led the trot, and directly passed the long line of merchants waiting in line, and came to the entrance to the mountain pass.

The three lord-level lily stinkbug fighters, leading ten mountain lord-level lily stinkbug fighters, are ready to fight, and they all look like they are on guard to keep insects away.

Seeing Bai Wei and his party approaching, one of the lord-level Liji bug fighters came up to him and stood in the middle of the road.

"Hello."

Bai Wei introduced politely: "We are the Baiwei Caravan. I am Bai Wei, a traveling merchant from the Watase Flame Spider Tribe. I specialize in the trade of high-end Force honey and royal honey."

Liji Stung Warrior: "..."

Warrior Li Ji stared at Bai Wei for examination, his eyes passed over Bai Wei, and he looked back.

An old mountain master-level flame spider, with two younger mountain master-level flame spiders, and a high-level flame spider... and a gorgeous golden mantis?
The back armor is empty, at first glance, I thought it was a few bankrupt and down-and-out traveling businessmen gathered together.

"Force honey?"

Warrior Li Ji asked.

Bai Wei: "There's also royal honey."

Bai Wei proudly said: "The force honey and queen bee honey circulating on the mainland are all sold from our caravan."

"Oh--"

Warrior Li Ji didn't have the enthusiastic response that Bai Wei expected, so he responded in a lukewarm manner, blocking the road in the middle of the road, with no intention of letting go.

Bai Wei: "Excuse me, what should I call you?"

"... Thorn Sang."

Warrior Liji stinkbug answered reluctantly.

"Lord Thorn Sang!"

Bai Wei untied the spider silk rope, took off a medium-sized spider silk bag and handed it over, "This is the most popular azure blue queen bee honey in our caravan. It comes from an extraterrestrial civilization, which is unique to the natural god system. The fruit produced by the super-grade god-given seed has an unparalleled sweet fragrance!"

"..."

Lord Thorn Sang didn't move at all, and didn't intend to raise his claws to pick it up.

"Excellent!"

Bai Wei emphasized.

Lord Thorn Sang was unmoved.

Bai Wei took back the spider silk bag, took out the metal can, and unscrewed the lid to display it.

A large jar of 1 rough stones!

Lord Cisang: "If every traveling merchant comes here and gives a little favor and let them go, wouldn't Yunguan Mountain be in chaos? The tribe trusts me and entrusts me with the important task of guarding the mountain gate. If I accept the favor and let it go at will, wouldn't it be a disappointment?" Lost the tribe's trust in me? How can I gain a foothold in the future?"

Lord Thornsang said, his mental power became severe.

"……Principled!"

Bai Wei resentfully took back the blue royal honey, lowered her mental power, and said, "We're not asking you to let me go. Help me inform the lord or insect king who is in charge of trading in Yunguan Mountain. I have a big deal to discuss with you."

"Bai Wei—the owner of the mountain!"

Lord Thorn Sang emphasized the title of "Lord of the Mountain", raised his paw and pointed to the flame spider caravan stretching four to five hundred meters behind, and asked, "Which caravan is not here for big business?"

Bai Wei: "...that makes sense...but..."

Bai Wei raised her paw and pointed to the forest in the distance, and said, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go over there."

Cisang said solemnly: "Over there is the rocky forest sea of ​​Yunguan Mountain, outsiders are not allowed to set foot."

"..."

Bai Wei lost her temper, and tried her best to keep her tone calm and brisk, and said, "Then I'll come back later."

After speaking, he turned around, waved his forefoot, and led the team away.

In the rear team, there are many merchants from the Watase Flame Spider tribe.

Many spiders know "Bai Wei who sells honey".

Bai Wei didn't want to get entangled with these caravans, so after walking a certain distance, she turned into the woods beside the road and detoured until she reached the hills two or three kilometers away.

Standing high and looking out.

"My most beloved Mountain Master Baiwei..."

Luna calls cautiously.

Bai Wei: "Rest where you are, wait for two or three days, and wait for the caravans to go in before we go there."

Caolong: "The pass guards are full-time soldiers. They have received rigorous combat training since childhood. They have a straight temper and are stubborn."

Lu Dou: "I've heard the spider say that Yunguan Mountain is really impossible to enter!"

Heart: "Isn't this better? The more difficult it is to enter, the greater the benefits once you enter."

Not necessarily!

Nan Di said: "It's all big caravans. Even if we successfully intervene, we won't get too much share."

Yu Dou agreed: "Yes. The overall evolution of our caravan is too low."

Nan Di echoed, "Those Liji stink warriors guarding the gate don't even look at us."

"Quiet! Quiet!"

Bai Wei withdrew her gaze and said, "Shenpin transactions are the biggest share! Under the Shenpin are all small transactions that are dispensable."

"No more discussions. Rest in place!"

Bai Wei spat out the life seed, which took root on the ground.

Hearts went into the jungle to look for food.

……

The rain receded.

Three days later, in the morning.

On the plain straight road, the caravan began to move forward slowly.

Each caravan leader has a clearance wooden sign made from the wreckage of the god-given seed issued by Yunguan Mountain.

The front of the wooden sign is engraved with the Yunguan Shenmu pattern identifying Yunguan Mountain.

Caravan information is engraved on the north side of the wooden sign, indicating who the leader of the caravan is and who the caravan members are.

The soldiers guarding the gate must check in turn before releasing them.

The work efficiency is extremely low,

After wasting half the morning, all caravans entered Yunguan Mountain.

"Let's go over!"

Bai Wei stood on the hill, watching the time was ripe, led the team down the hill, trotted to the pass again.

Lord Thornsang immediately stood in the middle of the road.

"You are still here!"

"I'll talk to the Jibu fighters in Yunguan Mountain who are in charge of the transaction."

Bai Wei found that speaking in a low-key manner would not work, so she tried to change into a high-spirited and tough attitude.

Lord Cisang: "I'm just a little lord who guards the customs, and I'm not qualified to meet the Jibu fighters who manage the transaction."

This stinkbug warrior has a stubborn temper, but his mind is not slow at all.

Bai Wei was helpless, raised her forefoot and pointed to the distance, and motioned: "Let's go over there and talk."

Lord Cisang: "I emphasize again, as a warrior who handles the key points, it is absolutely impossible to accept bribes."

Bai Wei: "You Yunguan Mountain and Zibei Mountain have no contact?"

Cisang: "I have nothing to do with Purple Back Mountain."

Bai Wei took a step forward, got closer, lowered her mental power, and said, "Then, have you heard that some stinkbug fighters in Zibei Mountain have obtained a kind of food that is highly compatible with their natural abilities by eating the divine fruit?" soul system ability."

Cisang took two steps back to open the distance, put aside the relationship, and said decisively: "I haven't heard of it."

Bai Wei: "Go and find out."

Cisang: "Why should I inquire?"

Bai Wei: "Because, I am the one who sells the divine fruit that grants soul-type abilities."

Cisang: "Oh——"

Cisang: "Take a look. If it's true, I can help report it."

Bai Wei: "The fruit is produced this year. It will be traded and picked up in spring next year, and it can be delivered in autumn next year."

Cisang: "Then let's send it over next autumn."

Bai Wei: "We are in a hurry."

Cisang: "What's the rush? Do you still worry about selling the divine fruit?"

What kind of bug is this?
Bai Wei tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and said: "This divine fruit is very important to you Yunguan Mountain. Your benefit is indispensable for the notification to facilitate the transaction."

Cisang was clearly organized, and said sonorously: "First, whether it is important or not, you can only know after seeing the real thing; second, guard the pass and do the things within your duties. The tribe will give sufficient resources for evolution and growth. I don't care. Other benefits are needed."

Bai Wei: "..."

Bai Wei: "Amazing! When I, Bai Wei, travel across the mainland, what I admire the most is your upright Zerg warrior."

Bai Wei: "Okay then, let's make a deal. Next year I will bring the fruit of the gods, and you will report it next year. See you next year!" (End of this chapter)
