Xiao Ai was puzzled. "Green Bone Spirit Leaf?
I don't have any records of this plant in my database. "
Ding Meng sighed. "When Brother Zheng Ming passed away, I used it to send him off. Mr. Yu, in order to save me, I also used it to play the war song of the Extraterritorial Devil Nation."
Xiao Ai was stunned. She didn't expect the people of the Green Tree Tribe to have such a thing.
Ding Meng gently rolled up the spirit leaf and put it to his mouth. He slowly blew into it.
"Pieces of lovesickness flow down the river. Wisps of nostalgia hang with the wind. Trickles of love flow like a flawless jade spring. The faint sound of flute lingers on the valley cliff. The rustling leaves drift to whose house. Suddenly, the first red glow shines. The setting sun is like blood. Smiles like flowers …"
It was still the "Original Scenery of Hometown." The song was soothing, gentle, and beautiful. It had a kind of tranquility and inspiration. Jun Ling and the others couldn't help but be entranced. This sound of nature seemed to have brought them back to their hometown. The six of them played and played on the prairie without any worries and ran freely.
Even the people of the Green Tree Tribe who were busy nearby stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Ding Meng in surprise. Everyone's expression gradually became intoxicated …
After a long time, the song ended. Jun Ling came back to his senses. "It's so nice!
This song! "
The girl revealed a surprised expression. "What song is this?"
Ding Meng smiled. "This song is called 'Original Scenery of Hometown.'"
The girl was a little shy. "Can you teach me? I want to learn!"
Ding Meng smiled. "I can, but this leaf isn't enough."
The girl's eyes lit up. "There are many near my house. I can take you to pick them."
"That won't do!" Fulasu walked over with a straight face.
The girl's eyes dimmed. "Why?"
Fulasu ignored her and turned to Ding Meng. "Her house isn't far from here, but if you want to leave the factory, you have to agree to a condition."
Ding Meng said, "What condition?"
Frasu said seriously, "Give me a box of your meat!"
Ding Meng couldn't help laughing. "No problem."
Although it was said to be one box, it was actually two boxes for him. Jun Ling had always been smart. How could he let go of such an opportunity?
Two boxes of beef were enough to send the manager away, so why not?
After strolling around the factory for a while, the sky gradually darkened. Night was the time to rest. These treants lived in the nearby tribes, so they didn't need to stay in the factory.
Ding Meng and Jun Ling followed the girl named Nicole out of the factory. If the outside could be described, it would definitely be the grassland of Madison after the stone plains had returned to normal. However, the weeds and shrubs here were huge and dense. It was very easy for a normal person to get lost here.
Nicole had probably considered this point as well. She brought the two of them to a place with fewer trees. About half an hour later, they arrived at a relatively flat grassland. This was obviously a small courtyard, and a small tree stood in the middle of the courtyard.
Although it was called a small tree, it was actually not small. Visually, it was no less than 20 meters tall. It was only small compared to the other trees on Planet 36. There was a tree hole at the bottom of the tree. Nicole's house was here.
Along the way, Ding Meng also found out that the Green Tree Tribe also had a strict social class division.
Almost all the members of the Green Tree Clan lived in the trees. The higher they lived, the wealthier their family was, or the stronger their family was. They had the ability to freely climb trees that were hundreds of meters tall and even thousands of meters tall.
For a family like Nicole's who lived in a tree hole at the bottom, it was obvious that they were very ordinary poor people. They didn't have good hunting skills, so they could only rely on collecting plants on the ground for a living.
Nicole could be considered lucky. Her talent for languages was very good. The factory's recruitment requirement was that she understood the human language of the God Wars Star Field. After a short period of learning, she had mastered it, which was why she was able to work in the factory.
The pay for working in the factory was actually very little. There was no currency in the Green Tree Tribe's society. People exchanged goods with each other according to their needs. However, there were also benefits to working in the factory. This was because the God Wars Alliance had brought all kinds of strange gadgets. If Fulasu was happy, he would give some to the workers first.
Of course, the majority of the goods would be sent to the royal family first. The commoners had no right to handle these things.
From the overall map, the factory was located in a very remote location. Thus, the people living in this area were the lowest level of the Green Tree Tribe's commoners.
Starting from the factory and heading north, the people living in this area were also ordinary people. Only Origin Ability Users could enter the super forest. The reason was simple. Planet 36 was so lush, and there were many rare beasts in the forest. If one didn't have the strength to enter the super forest rashly, the risk factor would be very high.
Only after becoming an Origin Ability User could one enter the super forest to hunt. This was the unspoken rule.
Those living in the super forest were not ordinary treants. Almost ninety-five percent of them were origin ability users. Among them, there were three levels: tribe, clan, and army. The closer to the center of the Green Spirit Divine Tree, the richer and more illustrious one's status would be. The king's residence was located on the top of the Green Spirit Divine Tree. He was the supreme existence of the Green Tree Clan on planet number thirty-six.
Nicona's parents were obviously not the kind of people that Fulasu said were not friendly to humans. On the contrary, the two old people were very warm to Ding Meng and Selina.
The inside of the tree hole was completely decorated according to the rooms in the human world. However, all kinds of ornaments were plant specimens. This place was the closest to the factory. The human civilization brought by the God Wars Alliance had a great impact on the nearby area.
Nicona's father made a wooden table and placed it in the courtyard. The steel bowls placed on the table were all imprinted with the symbol of the God Wars Alliance. However, the food placed on the table was an eye-opener for Jun Ling. It was filled with sparkling grass leaves and all kinds of strange fruits. They were shaped a bit like mulberry leaves and mulberry fruits. They were colorful and very beautiful. The taste could not be said to be delicious, but it definitely did not belong to the category of food that tasted bad.
In any case, Ding Meng and Jun Ling were the kind of people who had crawled their way through the days of eating raw meat and drinking blood. They were never particular about food. It was good enough that they had something to eat.
However, after Ding Meng ate these fruits, he felt refreshed, and his mind was especially clear.
Xiao Ai said, "These fruits have some slight benefits to the development of the brain, especially the increase of telekinesis. Although the increase is negligible, it is indeed effective. No wonder the people of the Green Tree Tribe live so long."
Nicona explained very apologetically, "This place is too far from the Divine Tree. The food produced here is not very good, so I'm sorry to the two of you."
Jun Ling did not mind, "Are you saying that the closer we are to the Divine Tree, the better the taste of these fruits?"
Nicona's father said, "Only psionicists are qualified to enjoy the food produced in the Divine Tree. After eating it, they will become stronger. Naturally, we don't have such good things, but the meat you brought is really delicious. We have never eaten this before."
Ding Meng said in a deep voice, "By the way, Nicona, where did the wood in the factory come from?"
Nicona said, "In the past, it was sent from the Divine Tree. In the past two years, it was harvested nearby."
Ding Meng thought to himself that if the wood was affected by the Divine Tree, then the wood in the super forest would be very different from the wood outside. This was probably the reason.
Nicona said, "Aren't you guys testing the wood?"
Ding Meng said with a smile, "Yes, the people of the Alliance are not very satisfied. The quality of the wood is not high."
Nicona's father sighed, "A few days ago, I heard from the elders of the tribe that the king is not very satisfied with the cooperation with the Alliance of Gods."
Ding Meng frowned and asked, "Why is that?"
Nicona's father said, "The elders mean that the Green Tree Tribe has been providing the wood, but the Alliance of Gods is not willing to provide the starship technology. They only trade daily necessities, which is different from the king's original idea. Therefore, in the past two years, they have not allowed the wood in the Divine Tree to be supplied to the factory."
Ding Meng could roughly guess the king's thoughts. The industry and technology of the Green Tree Tribe were indeed backward. Which race did not want to become stronger?
Since the Alliance of Gods needed the wood, they would use the wood to exchange for technology.
However, Ding Meng still could not figure it out. With the strength of the Alliance of Gods' fleet, they could just directly descend from the sky to suppress them. Why did they have to use this kind of cooperation, which was a waste of motor and fuel?
Xiao Ai said hesitantly, "This is probably related to the technology they are researching. I'm afraid it is not ordinary technology."
Ding Meng said, "There may be other reasons."
Nicona's father said, "But personally, I hope to provide you with the wood in the Divine Tree."
Ding Meng was stunned. "Why?"
Nicona's father replied worriedly, "I also heard from Frasu. He also said that the quality of the wood is getting worse and worse. The representatives of the Alliance of Gods are getting more and more aggressive in the annual talks, and the supplies provided are getting worse and worse. If this goes on, the factory will close down sooner or later. Our tribe will have a hard time.
Sigh … "Jun Ling was also a little speechless. She could understand the situation of Nicona's family. They were not psionicists, and her parents did not have strong hunting abilities. They could only rely on the factory to survive. If the factory closed down, Nicona's job would be gone, and the family's livelihood would not be guaranteed.
At this time, Ding Meng's eyes suddenly stared at the wooden table in a daze. Jun Ling also sensed that someone was coming!
There was a rustling sound of footsteps in the woods. There was more than one person coming. Suddenly, seven or eight male Ents with javelins in their hands came out from the surrounding bushes and surrounded the center of the courtyard. Looking at their posture, it was obvious that they did not come with good intentions.
However, Nicona's father suddenly stood up. "Why are you here again?"
The leader of the Ents was taller than Frasu. He was at least three and a half meters tall. When he saw Nicona, he was immediately happy. "Ha, you came at the right time. Nicona is at home …"
However, he soon became surprised. "Hey, why is there a human in your house? Is he from the factory?"
