Chapter 304 - 186: Cars of Fox Mountain, Meeting on the Mountain
The fierce wind howled.
Dark clouds gathered.
From the vast wilderness to the intricate trails of grassy fields, from palace ruins to dilapidated squares, in all departments of Fox Mountain, fiery red figures were busy at work.
In the fertilizer herb field at the foot of the mountain, the Tree-men were pulling out barrels of fertilizer.
These fertilizers were then carried barrel by barrel by Small and Big Eyes and Peach Blossom Eyes to the nearby Rotating Bamboo Shoots herb field, where they were poured spoon by spoon onto the newly-sprouted bamboo shoots.
"Yingying!"
"Aoo aoo!"
The fertilizer was very smelly, the farm work was exhausting.
But the two foxes were very happy!
Because they could already see these newly sprouted bamboo shoots, layer upon layer, beginning to rotate!
Once they were fed well with fertilizer, grew up and turned into bamboo bars, they would become the transmission shafts and engines for vehicle construction on Fox Mountain!
Swish—
Beside the grassy field, the Big Mushroom Ship slithered by, like a giant snake with bumps on its back, carrying a large pile of various copper plates up the mountain.
It wound its way along the mountain road, climbing higher and higher, quickly reaching halfway up the mountain, arriving beside the warehouse main hall at the side hall.
The Big Mushroom Ship stopped, and Bai Xingxing, White Moon, and Bai Taiyang emerged from within, carrying the copper plates from the snake’s back, calling out "Yingying Aoo Aoo" as they rushed into the side hall’s door.
This side hall, in the past, was the repair workshop for overalls and had piled up various waiting-to-be-repaired shovels, small knives, small hammers, small bowls, and small tripods.
But now, this side hall has upgraded to Fox Mountain’s vehicle construction workshop, and it was very busy inside...
Overalls wielded the small hammer, tapping and pounding, repairing copper plates, and making car frames.
Butterfly Knot guarded a basin of triangular tumor tree glue, pouring the sticky glue into molds to make tires.
Big Pocket wielded a small axe, shaving a tree root to make small chairs suitable for the foxes.
The master stood beside a newly made car frame, hands aflame with Pill Fire, combing through a large cluster of Scaly Mushrooms growing on the frame.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Three piles of copper plates were placed beside the master.
"Yingying!"
"Aoo aoo!"
Bai Mo stopped what he was doing, touched the heads of the three apprentices, and his Divine Sense spread out like an invisible wind, inspecting this heap of freshly dug copper plates...
"Hmm... they are quality copper plates.
"Again, they are learning insights left by the Ancient Immortal Fireman.
"This is very good. Their knowledge is quite incomplete, but the copper plates they used to record their knowledge are really high quality!
"Perfect for vehicle construction!"
All three gathered around their master, rubbing their heads against him.
"Yingying!"
"Aoo aoo!"
"Yingying!"
As long as these things are useful, they are quite happy!
Immediately, the three foxes rushed out of the workshop, boarded the Big Mushroom Ship, and sailed down the mountain.
Now, the Big Mushroom Ship is practically the only vehicle on Fox Mountain, and they were very busy working, they need to go to the fertilizer field and transport some fertilizer to Black Shoes’ Jade Food Tree.
Later, they need to head to the outskirts of the herb field and help Star Belly transport the bountiful harvest of black-haired coconuts.
Later, they need to excavate the ground and deliver the copper plates newly unearthed by Quanquan Hu back to the vehicle construction workshop...
In just this manner, under the blowing wind and dark clouds, the entire day quietly passed, and the serpent-like trace of the Big Mushroom Ship nearly spread all over Fox Mountain.
By evening, Bai Xingxing, White Moon, and Bai Taiyang, having filled their bellies in the canteen, swaggered back to their dormitory hall while bragging.
But they saw in the dark hall that all the brothers and sisters were gathered in a circle, watching something.
"Yingying?"
"Aoo aoo?"
The three foxes squeezed into the fox pile, tiptoeing, craning their necks, widening their eyes, seeing the car in the center of the fox group, already built!
"Aao?"
What big wheels!
This car had four wheels, each round and large, much taller than the foxes!
Between the four wheels were mushroom suspension and bronze car plates, as well as a driving module similar to the Big Mushroom Ship.
Beyond that, there was nothing else.
"Yingying?"
"Aoo aoo?"
The foxes were all discussing!
Whispering, foxy words danced through the air.
"Yingying aoo aoo aoo!"
... With such big wheels, any mountain road is passable!
"Aoo aoo yingyingying!"
... With such a big deck, any cargo can be carried!
Outside the circle, Bai Mo sat on the bed, once again reviewed his thought process to ensure no mistakes.
"Just waiting for the Nasal Soup and Rotating Bamboo.
"Once this core power module is in place, Fox Mountain’s vehicle will be able to traverse all the wilderness!"
...
The summer in West State City has completely disappeared.
The azure sky, the mountain’s red leaves, were all depicting the autumn vibes.
On the outskirts of the West Ridge Mountain Range, in the Red Leaf Temple tourist area.
Traffic was heavy, pedestrians were bustling.
Dozens of students, chatting and laughing, walked out from the parking lot, heading towards the mountain gate of Red Leaf Temple.
It was the West State University Immortal Grass Experimental Class, out for an autumn outing organized by class president Wan Bocheng.
"There are so many tourists."
"Mainly, Red Leaf Temple is a place that isn’t too pure!
"It’s a temple, but it also offers outdoor barbecues."
"Hahahahaha."
Wan Bocheng looked towards Bai Mo beside him.
"Bai Mo, you’re from West State, have you been to Red Leaf Temple? Can you be our tour guide?"
Tour guide?
Bai Mo hesitated for a moment.
In truth, this was his first time here!
Just as he was about to refuse, Teacher Chen, who was standing beside him, chimed in.
"I am familiar with this place, I can be everyone’s tour guide!"
It was indeed the math teacher of the experimental class, Teacher Chen, who also came along.
At this moment, he was wearing sportswear, enthusiastically stepping to the forefront.
"These stone steps up the mountain, there’s nothing much to say.
