Chapter 131 Northbound

Mo Lan and Bai Wei parted ways. Seeing that Mo Lan was in a depressed mood, Long Bai proposed to go to the north in the summer to look for raw stone veins in order to make her happy.

Reason told Long Bai that the idea of ​​searching for raw stone veins in the north was unrealistic, and the hope was slim and almost nonexistent.

But Mo Lan was full of confidence in this and would talk about it every now and then.

Long Bai couldn't help it, so he just took it for a walk and went to the north to escape the summer heat.

The same is true for the Flame Spider Travelers. They go north in the summer, where it's cooler, and in the winter, they go south, where it's warmer.

…

After a long detour, which lasted 10 days, we arrived at Yinbai Mountain.

The scorching sun shines brightly at noon.

Shan Shi, who worked tirelessly every day, couldn't stand the heat and took a rare rest.

There is a seemingly natural reservoir on the mountain.

The elytra and membrane wings of the mountain persimmon are spread out at the same time, lying on its back and floating on the water.

From a distance, at first glance, I thought something had happened to it.

Feeling the force fluctuations caused by the flight of the Dominion Throne, Shanshi fluttered his wings and turned over, his tentacles and six legs slid together, and he fluttered ashore.

"Yamaki."

"You can also swim."

Long Bai and Mo Lan greeted.

"Longbai Ant King, Mo Lan, you... this is..."

Yamashita's entire attention was attracted by the exaggerated giant tree stump ant nest, and he stared straight at it, speechless for a long time.

Mo Lan noticed that Shan Shi's size had grown, and said in surprise: "Shan Shi, have you evolved? Where is the Tian Qing Shi seed?"

Shan Shi said calmly: "The height of the spring planting is already over 1 meter."

Mo Lan: "You've eaten a lot of good things, has your evolution gone smoothly?"

Yamagaki: "It went relatively smoothly. When I woke up, I wasn't as weak as before."

After meeting Long Bai and Mo Lan, Shan Shi completed two stages of evolution and reached a body length of about 1.7 meters. During this period, he consumed a large amount of force food that strengthened his overall physique. He changed from the thin state when they first met, and now he is plump and strong.

The physical condition has improved, and the whole insect seems to be a little more spiritual, not as dull and stupid as when we first met him.

Shan Shi felt strange. He pointed at the throne with his tentacles and asked proactively: "Longbai Ant King, is this an ant nest?"

Long Bai: "Yes. Mo Lan and I went on a business trip, and we were able to cultivate large soldier ants on the way."

"Oh——" Yamashita seemed to understand.

Long Bai asked: "Are the seven common azure persimmon seedlings okay?"

Yamagaki: "Very good."

Mo Lan said with some regret: "Shanshi, Long Bai and I got 5 more Skygreen Persimmon seeds. Unfortunately, you have evolved..."

Yamagaki: "But I haven't chosen my destiny yet!"

Long Bai: "???"

Cymbidium:"???"

Mo Lan: "Didn't you evolve in spring?"

Mountain persimmon: "But this spring, the mountain persimmon tree bloomed. I kept 5 fruits and planned to collect the seeds as seeds after the fruits ripen."

Long Bai: "!!!"

Cymbidium:"!!!"

This guy……

How dare you delay such an important matter as choosing your life species after evolving...

They were so persistent that Long Bai and Mo Lan were speechless for a long time.

Long Bai: "Let's go down the mountain and take a look!"

…

The persimmon tree is a tree that grows relatively quickly.

Of the 7 common azure persimmon saplings transplanted last year, 5 were strong and 2 were weak.

The five trees that are growing well are already 2 to 3 meters tall, with fat leaves and lush branches, and each has a green persimmon fruit.

The two weakly growing trees are just over 1 meter tall, with thin branches and few and thin leaves. In the process of fruit tree selection and cultivation, such weak plants should be eliminated directly.

It couldn't bear to part with the persimmon, so it used thorn strips to build a fence to protect the weak plants. It must be carefully cared for.

The mountain persimmon is a very stubborn insect, and you can't persuade it with good words.

Long Bai and Mo Lan looked at it, speechless again.

Long Bai took out the bamboo tube containing the seeds of the azure persimmon and silently handed it to the mountain persimmon.

Mo Lan said: "Shan Shi, Long Bai and I are going to the north to escape the summer heat. Do you want to come with us?"

"Thanks--"

Shan Shi took the bamboo tube, pulled out the hay and looked at the seeds inside. He was very happy. After listening to Mo Lan's words, he was stunned on the spot. After a long time, he began to hesitate. After hesitating for a long time, he said nonchalantly:

"The persimmon tree needs me to stay and water it."

It also wants to see the outside world.

I really want to go, but I can’t leave.

…

Long Bai and Mo Lan rested for a night at Yinbai Mountain and continued on the road the next day.

No more twists and turns, just go straight north.

Endless plain forest.

Vast mountains and forests.

Vast grasslands, winding rivers, swamps with lush water and grass, and thousands of yellow sheep flocks move across the horizon with the sunset.

There are also coyotes chasing their prey.

Further north,

The landscape of Yunji Continent is completely different from the northern part of Ten Thousand Tribes Continent that Long Bai once traveled with Luo Li's caravan.

On the other side of Wanzu Continent, the far north is a plain with large mountains and towering mountains reaching into the clouds.

The raw stone veins are located in the mountains with large mountains. The extreme north is not suitable for the survival of the Zerg. It is occupied and controlled by the Orc warriors who have developed into the climate.

On this side of Yunji Continent are undulating mountains and forests, and the throne of control flies high up, with no end in sight. There are no plains, no large mountains, and no mountains reaching into the sky.

Long Bai noticed the situation and was stunned for a while, then immediately relieved.

Different continents, different landscapes, no surprise.

However, the possibility of finding raw stone veins has dropped by another three points, and is basically zero.

Continue north,

The rolling hills and forests seem to have no end.

The daytime temperature has dropped to the level of autumn in Pandan Mountain. The night is even colder than in Pandan Mountain in winter.

Now is the hottest summer, and the higher peaks all have white tops, which are covered with snow.

"Long Bai, where are the big mountains you mentioned?"

"The landforms of Yunji Continent are different from those of Ten Thousand Tribes Continent."

"What should we do?"

"have no idea."

"Continue north?"

"..."

Have been flying for 8 days.

They all flew here...

Long Bai hesitated for a moment and said firmly: "Look again!"

We found a sheltered valley to rest for the night, and set out on the road in the early morning of the next day when the sky was slightly bright.

Another 2 days of flying.

The mountain forest finally came to an end, and ahead was a vast plain with sparse vegetation and exposed rocks.

Two more days of flying,

Under the red-gold sunset, the sky to the west and north reflected colorful lights, and the whole world was illuminated in a colorful way.

"Long Bai?"

"go back!"

Long Bai controlled the throne, floated at low altitude, inspected the area, and then decisively turned around and headed south.

"Long Bai, don't you have any rough stones?"

"Where can I find rough stones?"

"That's right. Where should we go to find rough stones in Yunji Continent?"

"...I don't know."

Silence tacitly, thinking.

Mo Lan asked in confusion, "Long Bai, have we reached the far north?"

Long Bai: "Not yet. If the world under our feet is really a spherical planet, it's still far from it."

Mo Lan: "Then why is there a divine barrier blocking the way?"

Long Bai: "...I don't know."

Mo Lan: "Why does the God of Nature separate us?"

Long Bai: "I thought about this problem when I was one year old and asked Luo Li. Luo Li also thought about this problem and asked the Zeqi Spider King for advice. The Zeqi Spider King also thought about this problem. It has discussed with many extremely intelligent insects..."

Mo Lan: "What's the conclusion?"

Long Bai: "There is no result that can convince everyone."

"Hi--"

Mo Lan's vertical tentacles drooped.

It's getting late, Mo Lan has a rest.

Long Bai controlled the throne and ran away all night despite the cold wind.

Three days later, we finally returned to the mountain forest area.

Paulownia is relatively warm, and there are no ant eggs or larvae in the stump ant nests that are frozen.

The Throne of Ruler flew south for another two days, and the air became much warmer.

Long Bai was exhausted, so he stopped to hunt once, eat and drink enough, rested for a day, adjusted his route slightly to avoid repeating the same route he came from, and then started back on the road again.

Ten days later,

The sun is scorching.

The vast forest is dotted with lakes of all sizes.

The ruling throne flew slowly southward.

Mo Lan lay on the edge of the throne, staring down with all his attention.

It's late summer and some fruits are starting to ripen.

Pick them along the way and refine them to make ant honey.

"Longbai!"

Mo Lan suddenly jumped up excitedly.

Seeing its violent reaction, Long Bai guessed something.

"Force point?"

"Yes! Over there!"

"good!"

Long Bai did not hurry or slow, controlling the direction of the throne.

Thanks to a cat named Dog for the tip, thank you boss.
