Chapter 409: Small Island in the Lake
Banbu showed up, and he was just himself, the King of Rat and Jin Zhu, and he was really too busy to do it.
Currently, it is located in the westernmost Western Regions of Longzhu 6, where chestnut trees and rough ore veins are suspected to be found here.
The confirmed "God-Grade" God-given Sprouted Seed is located in the middle area of Dragon Bamboo 6, more than 3,000 kilometers away from this place. It takes about 10 to 15 days to run along the mountains. The things need to transport Dragon Clan 6, which is even further away.
Should I send the chestnut tree seeds back to Li Zhufeng first?
Should we confirm the raw stone veins first? How to dig after confirmation? Excavation is a problem, and handling is a problem.
The same is true for the remains of the God-given seed. They have to be cut and bagged first, and then they have to consider how to transport the dragon bamboo 6 and plan to transport it back to Lizhu Peak at the lowest cost.
...
The chestnut trees have existed for thousands of years, and the tree species are there, and they cannot escape, so there is no rush.
It was February, and there was still no trend of ice and snow melting in the northern grasslands.
Banbu simply took the Rat King and Jin Zhu to the wreckage of the "God-Grade" God-given Seed, dug out the things, and started working.
The Rat King and Jinzhu dig a large mountaintop warehouse and use the ability to solidify the soil and stone.
Banbu exerted his metal ability to create a large alloy saw. The Rat King and Jinzhu worked together to saw the branches off, and then saw the trunks into pieces, and finally cut them into small pieces and sent them to the warehouse.
The warehouse is sealed directly and the things are hidden first. Next time, the dragon bamboo fruit will be produced, and 9 soldiers from Li Zhufeng will gain the ability to enter the Dragon Bamboo 6 to walk, and then consider the handling issue.
This busy journey is directly in April, when the ice and snow melt in the northern mountains, ushering in a spring of vigorous life.
Banbu took the Rat King and Jinzhu back to the Western Regions, and Jinzhu led the way and headed north.
The grassland is not entirely a grassland, there are many hills, rivers, and wetlands.
In front is a large lake.
"Banbu, the Rat King, is this."
Jin Zhu stretched out her front paws, pointed to the island in the middle of the lake, and said, "I feel the fluctuations of the Force on the island."
The lake is too big.
Looking from afar, the island I saw was just a black spot, there were no plants on the island, so it should be a special rock.
Banbu asked, "Jinzhu, do you still know how to swim?"
"No, I don't know much..." Jin Zhu explained: "Last year, it should have been winter. When I returned, it was already very cold. The lake was frozen and it was snowy everywhere. I only felt the fluctuations of the force and didn't tell it clearly."
The rat king said indifferently: "The power fluctuates weakly, not a raw stone ore vein. The soil and stone structure are incorrect, and there are traces of the ability of the earth and stone to harden."
The Rat King said, angrily: "You idiot, use your brain, how big can the lakes and islands be? Even if there is a rough stone mine, how many can it be dug out?"
Jin Zhu stammered: "I... it's too cold, it's all covered in ice and snow. I'm almost frozen to death, so I didn't think about it carefully..."
Indeed, the islands in the lake are not large enough and they cannot be rough stone veins.
But the power fluctuation is real, and Banbu can sense it vaguely.
"We've all come here, let's go and have a look."
Banbu spread his veins and said, "I will take you there."
"Look at it." The rat king climbed onto the striped cloth armor and continued to analyze: "There are signs of residence around the lake. Perhaps a certain animal tribe living here stored the raw stones on the island."
Jin Zhu said unwillingly: "Then you should have some gains, right?"
The King of Rat said: "Yes, but it certainly cannot be compared with a raw stone vein."
Banbu guessed that he was similar to the Rat King, and the Black Rock Island should be a warehouse for storing raw stones by the beast tribe.
What I can't figure out is that the natural force is exhausted, so why don't they use up the rough stone?
Fly across lakes and land on islands.
Oval, with a length of about 80 meters and a short diameter of about 50 meters.
The whole body is covered with black rocks, with obvious traces of hardening of the soil and rock capacity. Due to the long time in the past, the hardening effect disappeared, and collapse and weathering occurred in many places.
The Rat King trotted around the Black Rock Island and immediately locked in a position, saying: "The original stone is hidden underground, with an inclined downward passage, and the entrance is at this location, collapsed."
Banbu swayed his tentacles and said, "Dig!"
The rat king waved his claws and said, "The buried deep, golden bamboo, come and dig it. There is a mountain range over there, which is quite large. Let's go and take a walk."
According to natural laws, the raw stone ore veins are born with mountains.
The beast tribes living here have mineral veins, so the ore must come from distant mountains.
The Force is exhausted, and fools know that the possibility of missing is almost zero if they hollow out the mine veins.
"King of Rat, you dig with Jin Zhu, move quickly, don't delay the time. I'll go to the mountains to check, I guess there's no big gains in this trip. I'll leave after confirming it, and we'll continue to search in a scattered manner."
After saying that, spread his veins and soared into the air.
The mountains are only about ten kilometers away from the lake. Looking down from the sky, you can see that the mountains are only 50 kilometers long. The two ends are short and the middle section is very tall, with undulating hills and an isolated mountain. The ice and snow on the top half of the peak have not melted, which looks quite eye-catching.
Banbu speeds, lands directly on the top of the peak, starts from the upper layer of the mountain, and searches downwards in turn.
There are many traces of excavation on the mountain peak, and there are passages. They should be mines. If you dig a little, you can see carefully. After the raw stones were dug up, the soil and stones were transported backfilled to the mine pit.
This mountain once had rough stones.
After checking it one after another, it was already hollowed out.
I searched all over the mountains, but I didn’t live in a cave now.
Continue to look for the mountains next to it, and similarly, there are mines of large and small sizes. The mines in the depths are backfilled by earth and rocks, and the soil and rocks are solidified. From this, it can be inferred that the lake was not formed naturally. The beast tribal warriors living here are very smart. They dig soil from the lakeside and backfilled by earth and prevent the mountains from collapsing.
At the foot of the mountain range, corresponding to a forest of red pine trees, there are neat rows of living caves, and the beast warriors should have lived here in a concentrated area.
The red pine forest has traces of cultivation, and they are all high-quality tree species selected and bred. The beast warriors living here actually learned to manage tree species and achieved something!
After searching carefully near the entrance of the cave, I found a fallen dead tree, with a huge grade, a length of more than 40 meters, a trunk diameter of nearly 40 meters, and a rare giant tree.
Most of the pieces are exposed outside. Over the long years, they have been severely damaged by wind and rain. The small pieces buried in the soil are relatively well preserved.
Especially in the center of the root system, there is an extremely weak force that has not dissipated.
Without collecting samples and sending them back for Barba for inspection, Banbu can confirm that this is definitely a wild 'god product' red pine seed.
This wild god-given seed is not simple. It has completed its third transformation and evolution, and has experienced the growth of the long years. The tree spirit naturally awakened and approached the cosmic level of life infinitely. Unfortunately, it was still unable to break through the genetic shackles in the end.
The tree spirit learned without a teacher to learn to abandon the tree body in times of crisis, condense all the essence of life and condense the heart of the tree. This is a life-saving measure for the Force plants to face sudden changes in the environment and life-and-death crisis.
Banbu's eyes moved on his forehead. He observed that he did not see the soul of the tree spirit.
Unfortunately, because there was no force to replenish it for too long, he eventually died.
"Oh, it's a pity that the death didn't last long. If it had come one or two thousand years earlier, it might have been saved."
Banbu felt a little uncomfortable at first, and then he became excited: his guess was right. In the cold areas of the north, the seeds of God who died from lack were easier to preserve!
The seeds given by God condense into the heart of the tree, which itself is to overcome the sudden harsh environment. All life activities are infinitely approaching stagnant. They can survive for a long time without dying. When they overcome danger and find suitable soil, the heart of the tree can be revitalized again.
If you are lucky enough, you might find a living person!
However, it is not very wonderful. This place is about a hundred kilometers north of the northern desert jungle, which is already very northern. During the year, it is only from mid-April to mid-June. In a short period of three months, the temperature is above zero.
Whether it is a bamboo rat warrior or a red cockroach warrior, it is not suitable to survive in an environment where the temperature is below zero. What's more, the temperature in this place is below minus 10 degrees, and in the middle of winter, the minimum may reach minus 40 degrees 50 degrees, making it difficult to survive, let alone activities and labor.
The flag cloth marked the position, flapped its wings and took it into the air, looked down from a high altitude, found a forest growing next to the mountains, and rushed away.
It is a maple forest. After cultivation, it can be distinguished. The native species is "fanleaf maple".
Next to the maple forest and at the foot of the mountain range, there are neat rows of living caves. I searched around and found an incomplete wreckage of the God-given seed, which was very decayed and had no value.
Banbu felt that he had found the rule.
Once upon a time, the beast warriors living in this mountain range knew how to cultivate plants, and their settlements were all right next to the woods.
Search for the woods, then the settlement, then search for the settlement, and find the remains of the seeds given by God.
As for the mineral veins, bamboo rat warriors are the best. They turn around and let the rat king and Jinzhu come and wander around the mountains. However, Banbu doesn't have much expectations for this. Since the beast warriors rely on this mineral vein to survive, the force is exhausted, there is no reason not to dig it clean to save their lives.
What Banbu is looking for are those mineral veins that have not been seen by the beast tribe.
