Time flies, and it’s early October soon. The construction of Orchid Town is still going on and has not changed due to the arrival of the new mayor.
One afternoon, in the special bedroom underground of the water station, Chen Xing opened the closet and took Jianyue Canglian into the ant nest. Following the whistle, several termite workers appeared in the corridor pulling a wooden cart. The slender tentacles on their heads were swinging up and down, as if they smelled some fragrance, and they made a chirping sound from the rattan basket hanging on the arm of Chaoyue Canglian.
The basket was covered with a tablecloth, and the rich aroma of food came out.
"This is not for you." Jian Yue Cang Lian said, patting the termite worker's head. She has been here many times and has met Suna. She has grown from disgusting with these little creatures at the beginning to loving them now.
Getting on the ant cart, the worker ants ran towards the depths of the tunnel. After a few minutes, the corridor gradually widened and we arrived at the spacious incubation room.
"Brother, you're here." "Suna misses you so much~"
Pleasurable brain waves came through, and then became shy again.
"Yeah, Sister Canglian is here too." "Wait, don't come in yet, I need to change clothes."
There were rustling sounds in the darkness. After a while, a cheerful and somewhat clumsy figure ran out. She was wearing little red shoes and a high-waisted suspender dress. The whole skirt below the breasts is bulging high. This is the favorite dress for pregnant women before giving birth. It is undoubtedly Su Na.
"Good afternoon, my lady." Jian Yue Cang Lian bowed and saluted.
Although she didn't know the specific relationship between Su Na and Chen Xing, Su Na called Chen Xing "brother", and Chen Xing also showed his doting on her sister, so she treated Su Na as a master and servant to show her love. The respect of the master.
Moreover, Suna has a very good personality, is well-behaved and obedient, and is deeply loved and respected by her.
Su Na ran over and hugged Chen Xing, put her hands around his neck and kissed his face several times, and then hugged Jian Yue Canglian again. Then he took a step back, held up his skirt, curtsied, and said, "Good afternoon, my teacher."
During this period, Jian Yue Canglian would spend two hours every day teaching her reading and literacy, as well as the history and culture of the human world. An oil lamp was lit in the corner of the incubation room, and there were two desks and chairs, with books neatly arranged on them, ink pens and handwriting pads.
"Where did you teach yesterday?" Chen Xing asked.
"Miss Suna is very smart. She has already learned literacy in the second semester of the first grade. Yesterday she also studied the modern history of the Red Kingdom after the catastrophe..."
Jian Yue Cang Lian reported Suna's learning progress one by one. Chen Xing just asked casually without listening carefully. After she finished speaking, he asked them to continue studying and then went to the storage room next to her.
As soon as Chen Xing left, Su Na showed a greedy expression and pulled Jian Yue Cang Lian's arm, with stars in her eyes, "Sister Cang Lian, did you bring something delicious to Su Na today?" she said. After sniffing the basket, saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth unconsciously.
"Greedy cat~" Jian Yue Canglian pinched Suna's little nose, walked to the desk, adjusted the position of the oil lamp, and illuminated the children's literacy chart nailed to the earthen wall.
"This is fish, fish." She pointed to the pattern and words on it and said.
"Fish, fish~" Suna repeated.
Then Jian Yue Canglian took out a plate from the basket, which contained a fried river fish, "fish, fish." "fish, fish~"
After repeating it several times to make sure that Su Na had remembered it, Jian Yue Cang Lian handed the river fish to Su Na. Suna grabbed it and stuffed it into her mouth.
"Hey!" Jian Yue Canglian grabbed the little greedy cat's hand, "Where are the lady etiquette promised?" Then he took out the tableware from the basket.
"Hehe~" Su Na smiled sheepishly and used chopsticks to eat instead.
"Girls, you have to learn to be elegant, otherwise people will laugh at you when you go out. It's okay to laugh at you, but you are the master's sister, so laughing at you means laughing at the master, you know?" "Yeah, yeah, yeah~"
"This is chicken, chicken..." "Roast chicken?" "This is live, roast chicken is roasted chicken, this is live chicken."
While the two women were talking, in the storage room not far away, Chen Xingzheng crossed his arms and looked at the bottle half as tall as a person on the ground. Several worker ants were lying nearby, waiting for Chen Xing's dispatch.
This pot was dug out by Chen Xing by the worker ants. It was the Devil's Pot that was found while trying to survive underground in No. 65. He has been studying it for a while, but the injected spiritual energy is like a mud cow sinking into the sea, without any movement.
"Is it because the psychic energy is not strong enough?" Chen Xing said to himself, "Or is it used in the wrong way?"
The third uncle of Ye Yang's family said that he had to reach the great guard level before he could use it. It seemed that he was still not high enough. But he had a trio that could completely simulate the corresponding intensity, but no matter how he tried, there was no response.
He moved to the side of the pot, lowered his head, looked at the dark spout, and suddenly came up with a new idea.
"Bring a few larvae over and let them go in and take a look." Chen Xing said to the worker ants. The worker ants swung their fat butts out and came in again, bringing back a few termite larvae the size of house cats.
In this underground world, Chen Xing is the only king, and they will obey no matter what orders are given.
"Chi chi chi..."
The miserable little termites were stuffed into the Devil's Pot, as if falling into a deep well, and their screams gradually faded away.
Chen Xing waited for more than ten minutes and stuffed another one in. There are plenty of termites anyway. Now that Su Na has reached the level of "Queen of Hundred Nests", she has hatched seven or eight little queens, and there is no need to breed low-level eggs. These ordinary worker ants and soldier ants are all bred by little queen ants, and they are huge in number. The entire ant colony already has a scale of more than 100,000.
After stuffing more than a dozen young ants in, they all seemed to be lost in the sea, so Chen Xing had to give up.
"Move to a farther place, send soldiers to monitor it closely, and notify me immediately if anything happens." Chen Xing ordered. The worker ants responded a few times to express their understanding, and then they and their companions lifted the Devil's Pot and sent it to an area several kilometers away.
This thing is unpredictable and always dangerous, so it's better to stay away from the incubation room. Although Suna is now very powerful and has the ace escape skill of short-distance teleportation, he has long regarded the opponent as his favorite and cannot tolerate any mistakes.
In addition to ordinary worker ants and soldier ants, the current ant nest also has many high-level units. There are advanced worker ants that can spray acid, named "chemical ants" by Chen Xing, there are queen ant guards who are as big as trucks, named "digger ants" by Chen Xing, and there are also fast-moving, smaller advanced workers. Soldier ants were named "Swift Ants" by Chen Xing.
According to the "Encyclopedia of Post-Catastrophic Biology", the active lifespan of advanced termites can reach two years, and their dormant state can last more than thirty years. They are relatively long-lived among ants. Of course, this does not include the queen ant. Like other mutated creatures, the life cycle of a queen ant is related to her strength. The stronger she is, the longer she will be.
Back in the incubation room, Su Na was still learning to read with Jian Yue Cang Lian. Chen Xing looked at her seriousness in class and couldn't help but pull her aside, pinched her hard a few times, sucked her milk twice, and then let her go back to class.
"Brother is so evil!" Su Na said in a coquettish tone.
"Oh, you dare to scold me?" Chen Xing's face turned cold. Su Na was suddenly too frightened to speak and hid behind Jian Yue Canglian.
Chen Xing glared at her for a few times, took out the portable screen and walked aside. What he was reading was the newly published "Lily of the Valley by the River: Prisoners of the Prison", which is the second part of this series, and the plot is just as exciting as the previous one.
After watching for a while, Chen Xing suddenly felt something strange in the spiritual sea, and then he calmed down and sank his consciousness into the spiritual sea.
"Ouch, ouch!"
The wolf spirit struggled, bared its teeth at him, and howled. The hair on his body stood up like silver needles, and his eyes were as red as blood, looking very angry.
One person and one wolf coexist and share the same mind. Chen Xing knew what it meant and said, "I have already said that as long as you are willing to cooperate, I will help your companions, as well as your wife, children and children."
The wolf spirit stared at him, making a deep sound in his throat.
"What, you said you have already helped me? Is that for your own sake? I say it again, surrender to me, otherwise you can't expect me to help you!"
The wolf spirit roared again, the iron chains binding its body broke, and new iron chains rushed out from the sea, trapping it.
"When did you figure it out? When did you call me?" Chen Xing said, then his consciousness exited the spiritual sea and continued to look at him.
After a long time, Jian Yue Canglian finished today's class, asked Suna to continue reviewing and doing homework, and then returned to the bedroom with Chen Xing.
"Master, are you in there?"
Li Mei's voice came from outside. She seemed to have been guarding the door and only spoke when she heard someone inside.
"Village Chief Gared is here and waiting for you in the hall."
Chen Xing then remembered that he had an appointment with Garide today, so he went out and followed Li Mei to the lobby on the first floor.
"Lord Mayor, I'm here, what are your orders?" Garide stood up and said.
"Go to the town and find two girls, one around twenty years old, preferably pretty, and send them to the mayor's mansion to be at the mercy of Pang Youcai." Chen Xing said. He used the other party to get a lot of benefits from Lacey, and he couldn't get away with it all. Next, he has to rely on the other party to provide cover. Maintaining a good cooperative relationship is the long-term solution.
"It's beautiful..." Garid pondered and asked, "What are the specific standards?"
"Hmm..." Chen Xing thought for a while and said, "It's similar to Ye Qian and others."
"This, how can this be..." Garid looked embarrassed. The refugees in the town were generally malnourished. The women were dark and thin. Not to mention the pretty ones, there were not many who were even slightly pleasing to the eye. As residents have a relatively high status, most are unwilling to do these things, and even if they are willing, it will cost a lot of money.
"Isn't there one in your village?" Chen Xing asked.
Gared hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes, yes, but she is not as beautiful as your maid..."
"That's about it. Here are three thousand gold coins. Use them to develop your village."
"Oh, how can you be so embarrassed?" Garide felt embarrassed. As a migrated village, Gari Village received the most care from Chen Xing.
"It's okay, it's okay, we are all old friends." "Thank you so much."
The two were chatting when suddenly there was the sound of quarreling outside.
"Hey, you can't go in!" "I'm here to see my boss and discuss things with my boss. Why don't you, a little girl, let me in?" "The master is waiting inside..."
Chen Xing recognized the voice of Carrot, and seeing that Gared had finished his instructions, he asked Ye Qian outside to let him in.
The radish was a team member he harvested in Longshi Town. His talent is the rare "Plant Sensing". People with this talent are called wilderness shepherds. They can plant mutated plants that can move independently. They are currently the agricultural workers in Orchid Town. leader in this regard.
"Boss, boss, I'm here to pinch you." As soon as he saw Chen Xing, Carrot's face was filled with a flattering smile. It's just that the smile is a bit vulgar, and the eyes, nose, and mouth are squeezed together, making people feel so cheap that they want to go up and beat him up.
"What's the matter?" Chen Xing asked pretending to be concerned. Although he looked a little unhappy, he was his production manager after all, and he would have to rely on him for food in Orchid Town in the future.
"I, my um, um..." Luobo rubbed his hands and stuttered for a while before saying, "I've been promoted now and my income is higher, so I was wondering if I could ask for a little wife... "
After working on it for a long time, it turned out that he was here for his little wife, so Chen Xing said, "Then go and ask for it." Although the laws of this world only recognize monogamy, no one cares about it in private. As long as they can afford it, they don't violate it. It depends on the wishes of the parties involved, as many as they like.
Furthermore, he himself was surrounded by a lot of women, so the management method of only allowing state officials to set fires but not allowing people to light lamps was not a long-term solution.
"Um, that, I don't know how to do it myself, I need the mayor to arrange it." Luobo said.
"Then who do you like?" Chen Xing asked. Luobo had fallen in love with Li Rou before, but others didn't like him. Later, he married Chief Sander's daughter, so he didn't mention it again.
"Don't you have a team member named Xiaocui who is in the garrison of the water station?" Luobo said.
Chen Xing thought for a while and then remembered that Xiaocui was a female team member recruited in Longshi Town, but she was average-looking, so he had no impression of her.
"Okay, I'll ask her." Chen Xing agreed, and then asked Li Mei next to him to find Li Rou.
"You go back first, I'll call you after I ask." Thinking that if Xiaocui didn't agree, Luobo would be embarrassed at the scene, Chen Xing kicked him out.
After a while, Li Rou came. Chen Xing asked if she was familiar with Xiao Cui. She said she was okay, so Chen Xing asked her to call Xiao Cui over.
