Astral Ants

Chapter 42 The First Client of the Traveling Merchant Business

"Cloud Trace Continent?"

"It's the continent we live in, which is in the period of force silence. There are only some places where the force exists in a small area, such as the mountain pass where you live, the Xianglan Mountain where Mo Lan and I live, Mo Lan Mountain, etc."

"Besides me and you, are there other bugs?"

"of course."

"The natural god gave you the throne of domination? Have you seen the natural god?"

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I have dreamed about it. The God of Nature guides me and takes care of me."

"You all have God-given seeds?"

"Of course!"

Mo Lan answered quickly, "I have the God-given Seed of Guoxianglan. Longbai has a God-given seed from the creator civilization, named Zhanlan. There are no plants in the natural pantheon, and it is unique."

The seed bestowed by the gods is the best evidence of the care of the natural gods.

Sure enough, the god of nature is so good, Gui Shan was a little bit intimidated, and stopped talking, silently digesting the information he just got.

Long Bai looked into the distance to observe the territory of the ghost fan not far away.

The ghost fan tree itself is a small tree, but the tree height of the god-given species of the ghost fan tree has reached a height of 30 meters, with lush branches and leaves, and green fruits hanging on it.

In addition, there are an integer number of 10 common ghost fan wood species.

It can be seen that the ghost fan is similar to the molan, but it is obsessed with the ghost fan wood, a woody plant that is much stronger than the orchid grass.

Guishan lives here alone. It must be during the evolution process that he realized the disadvantages of a single plant as a life seed. He is very smart and knows how to go astray. He chose a variety of trees such as cypress, mango, and yellow bark as life seeds. Force food category.

Long Bai asked: "Ghost Fan, how many years is the flower and fruit cycle of your god-given seed?"

Ghost Fan has a good impression of Long Bai, and some are overwhelmed by Long Bai's origin, so he introduced in detail:
"When I was an intermediate fighter, the flower and fruit cycle was 2 years. After I evolved into a senior fighter, the flower and fruit cycle was extended to 3 years. This is the third batch of fruits that I promoted to a senior fighter, and it is expected to mature in the fall of next year."

Long Bai: "Then next year we can exchange in moderation!"

Long Bai pointed out his reason for coming, and said: "I have business dealings with many insects, what type of force food you need, you can tell me, and I will get it for you."

"Trade?" Ghost Fan paused, searched the inheritance memory, was excited and ecstatic, and asked expectantly: "Like the Flame Spider Traveling Merchant?"

This beetle is so enlightened!
Long Bai replied calmly: "Yes. I hold the throne of dominion, and I have the ability of flame spiders to carry goods. Moreover, I can run across various origin points, which is something that flame spiders cannot do."

Long Bai added: "It's very hard for me to run back and forth, and earn a little bit of hard work appropriately."

Long Bai said again: "I see that you have encountered a lot of troubles in evolutionary growth due to the unbalanced food intake of the force. If you continue like this, you will definitely fall on the road of evolution to the mountain master in the future."

This is not scaring, this is the current state of Ghost Fan.

Long Bai proposed with a bewitching tone:

"You are an advanced fighter. First of all, you must strengthen the food with strong metals. Wooden armored fighters are famous for their super hard carapace and super defense. You also need to strengthen the food with the force of the carapace. At the same time, your comprehensive physique is extremely strong. Poor, strength, speed, endurance, blood viscera, muscle strength, etc. are all insufficient, and a series of comprehensive strengthening is urgently needed."

"Yes. Exactly. I need it."

Ghost Shan agreed again and again. He has always lived alone and never communicated with other insects. He does not know the complexity of insect hearts, so he truthfully explained:

"After I evolved into a high-level fighter, it was extremely difficult for me to go up every age. Every time I woke up from a deep sleep, I was almost half dead. I was really worried that I would never wake up again after the next deep sleep."

"Longbai Ant King, if you can, you can help me exchange as much of the force food you just mentioned, the more varieties the better. I can trade with you with all the ghost fans produced next year."

The ghost fan added: "I still have a lot of ghost fans produced by ordinary ghost fan wood. If I haven't finished eating this year, I can trade them to you."

"no problem!"

Long Bai readily agreed.

Very good big beetle.

However, for the 10 species of ghost fan wood, it is estimated that it will almost vomit after eating ghost fans.

Long Bai: "No rush. No rush. For the first transaction, you have to talk slowly, and explain everything clearly, so as to avoid disputes in the future."

Long Bai said unhurriedly: "I went out in a hurry and didn't bring any goods. In this way, you can first bring some ghost fans produced by ordinary ghost fan wood, and I will give you an estimate. Let's trade based on the price of rough stones."

Rough stone?Ghost Fan searched the inheritance memory, understood what is the 'raw stone', hesitated for a moment, said: "Wait a minute."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went into the dense forest next to him, and quickly ran to the hillside where two raspberry plants were planted.

Long Bai controlled the ruling throne Piaofei followed.

Ghost Fan dug a cave on a relatively gentle slope on the mountainside.The cave is surrounded by ordinary ghost fan trees, and there is a large open space where seedlings of ghost fan trees of different sizes grow.

The reigning throne is suspended at the edge of the open space, at a height of more than ten meters from the ground.

Holding a hollow wooden stick about 1 meter long in its mouth, Ghost Fan got out of the cave and trotted over.

The ghost fan is stored in a wooden stick, and it makes a crackling sound when running.

"I can't remember how long I've been living alone here."

Ghost Fan was talking to himself, and ran under the throne.

"Cultivating the ghost fan tree is the only joy in my life, and harvesting another ghost fan tree is the motivation for me to live on..."

As Ghost Fan said, he pulled out the hay that blocked the hole in the stick, and grabbed the stick with his left forefoot and shook it vigorously.

A ghost fan the size of a chestnut, nearly spherical, with a black wrinkled husk fell out.

However, Long Bai's eyes turned to the neatly stacked timber beside the cave.

"Ghost Fan, have you sheltered many wood beetles?"

"Yes. Evolving into a high-level fighter begins to protect... It's too difficult for ordinary wooden armor to evolve into a force life!"

"Then your hollow wood is..."

The ghost fan understood Long Bai's question, and explained: "It's not insect-eaten. I have mastered the metal ability initially, collected some metal gravel from the river, and manipulated the gravel to drill holes inside to store the ghost fan."

"Oh--"

Long Bai understood.

I thought that the ghost fan's strong mental power could control the larvae of the wood-hard beetle, and thought that the hollow stick was made by the larvae.

It turned out not to be.

Long Bai swayed his tentacles lightly, and patted Mo Lan.

Mo Lan understood, fluttered her wings and glided to the ground, grabbed the ghost fan on the ground, jumped up, flapped her wings twice, and landed lightly beside Long Bai.

Long Bai took the ghost fan and looked at it.

The original species that has not been cultivated by Zerg is similar to almonds, and the seed shell is so thick that it cannot be crushed with claws.

The two jaws smacked hard, and the seed shell shattered.

The nuts inside are only about the size of a pea.

Long Bai scanned the sensor with mental power, chewed and swallowed.

Bitter and unpalatable, slightly poisonous.

The force attribute is different from any force food that has been eaten before. After being absorbed by the body, the force energy is concentrated to the brain.

"pretty good!"

After a long time, Long Bai praised and asked: "Ghost fan, how many ghost fans can you produce every year with an ordinary ghost fan tree?"

The ghost fan didn't understand what it meant, and answered truthfully: "The earliest planted, the largest tree can produce more than 400 seeds per year, and the latest planted, the smallest tree can only produce about 200 plants per year."

After all, it is a small tree with a slightly lower yield.

Long Bai quoted: "When you were a high-level warrior, I could give you a purchase price of 0.5 rough stones per piece for ordinary ghost fans. In the future, when you become a mountain master, the quality will be greatly improved once, and the price will be doubled."

Ghost Fan doesn't know whether the price is high or low, but he is very happy and looking forward to hearing that he can double his promotion to Mountain Master in the future.

Ghost Fan: "Listen to you."
