After the frost, the soldiers of the hunting team hurry up to hunt, and the soldiers of the fishing team hurry up to catch fish.
Even the soldiers in the planting team went to the nearby forest to collect various wild fruits and tuber plants because they had no work to do after the autumn harvest.
Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao boiled the two bags of insect wax that were traded back from the Blue Sheep tribe, removed the impurities, and poured them into the prepared bamboo tubes.
Two-thirds of the insect wax is stored directly and kept by red peony root to study its medicinal properties and the effect of combining it with different medicinal materials.
After pouring one-third of the insect wax into the bamboo tube, a string with strong oil-absorbing ability will be placed in the middle.
After the insect wax dries, you only need to break the bamboo tube to get a very thick candle.
This kind of candle exudes a refreshing fragrance when burning, and the flame is stable when burning, making it suitable for night lighting.
After finishing all the insect wax, Jiang Xuan looked up at the giant dragonfly on the stone mountain.
These giant dragonflies just clung to the ancient vines and haven't moved for two days.
Jiang Xuan knew that most of them had been frozen to death, just like the giant dragonfly last year.
These giant dragonflies once went to the Mosquito tribe with them, fought side by side, and transported supplies. Now that their lives have ended, Jiang Xuan is somewhat sad.
"唳!"
Just when Jiang Xuan was about to return to his bamboo house, a familiar bird song suddenly sounded in the distant sky.
"Huh? This is..."
Jiang Xuan looked at the sky in surprise, with some expectation in his heart.
Not long after, a huge black eagle appeared in the distant sky and approached quickly.
Chi Shao also put down her work and said in surprise: "It's the old witch's giant eagle! The old witch is back!"
Jiang Xuan was also a little excited. When the old witch left, he thought he would never see the old witch again.
After all, the Southern Wilderness is so big and dangerous, and the old witch is old.
No one thought that the giant eagle would return to the Vine Tribe.
"Let's go over and have a look."
Jiang Xuan immediately walked towards the bamboo house where the old witch lived, with Chi Shao following closely behind.
Although it is not sure whether the old witch will come back, Jiang Xuan has always kept the bamboo house for the old witch and no one else can live in it, and Chi Shao often goes there to clean it.
"唳!"
The giant black eagle circled in the sky and then quickly landed on the ground.
Those who had just joined the Vine Tribe and had never seen the giant eagle were so frightened that their legs weakened and they ran away screaming.
"Don't be afraid, the giant eagle won't hurt anyone."
The Vine tribe warriors who were familiar with the giant eagle quickly explained. Those who escaped stopped in doubt, but did not go back immediately.
"Boom!"
The giant eagle landed on the open space next to the bamboo house, then squatted down, with one broad wing extending diagonally toward the ground.
On the back of the giant eagle, the old witch wearing thick animal skin stood up slowly. He took off two animal skin bags from the eagle's back, and then walked to the ground along the wings of the giant eagle.
When the old witch saw the familiar rattan tribe and the familiar bamboo house, a relaxed smile suddenly appeared on his face.
I don’t know why, but he particularly likes this energetic little tribe.
"Old witch, I thought you wouldn't come back..."
Jiang Xuan quickly ran to the bamboo house, very happy.
The old witch looked at Jiang Xuan and suddenly found four horizontal lines on his face. He was surprised and said: "Four-color warrior?"
"Hahaha, I was lucky enough to break through the four colors."
Jiang Xuan said he was lucky, but there was a proud look in his eyes.
The old witch glanced at the top of the stone mountain, and his expression became even more surprised: "Did Shen Teng break through?"
This divine vine gave the old witch an even more terrifying feeling. Its divine power was as vast as the sea, completely different from before.
At this time, Chi Shao walked up to the old witch and said: "Teng Shen has indeed made a breakthrough."
The old witch nodded, glanced at Jiang Xuan again, and said, "No wonder, it seems that a lot of things happened after I left."
Jiang Xuandao: "I'll help you move your things in first, light the fire pit, and then talk slowly."
Jiang Xuan easily took the two animal skin bags from the old witch's hand, opened the door of the bamboo house, put the animal skin bags away, went out again, climbed on the back of the giant eagle, and took off the remaining animal skin bags.
Move into the house.
That is to say, Jiang Xuan is very courageous, and because he is familiar with the old witch and the giant eagle, other people, even if they are also four-color warriors, do not dare to climb on the back of the giant eagle.
While Jiang Xuan was moving things, Chi Shao brought fire from other bamboo houses and rekindled the fire pit in the old witch's house.
The blazing fire pit brings warmth to the bamboo house that has not been occupied for a long time and makes people feel more comfortable.
Nan Xing and others also came over. Everyone was very happy to see the old witch. They helped him wash the pots and dishes, make the beds, and quickly decorated the bamboo house so that they could live in it.
After finishing their work, everyone gathered around the fire pit, and Jiang Xuan told the old witch what happened after he left.
Including the invasion of the mosquito tribe, the breakthrough of the divine vine, the great sacrifice, and the elimination of the mosquito tribe.
"The mosquito tribe was wiped out?"
The old witch was a little surprised, because for a small tribe like the Teng tribe, it would be fine if it was not wiped out by other tribes. How could it dare to expect anything else?
Jiang Xuandao: "It's all thanks to the vine god and the giant dragonfly, and we are responsible for cheering."
The old witch nodded and expressed his understanding. After all, the number of warriors in the Vine Tribe was too small and their strength was not strong enough.
Jiang Xuan asked again: "Old Witch, where did you go after you left the Vine Tribe?"
The old wizard said: "After leaving the Vine Tribe, I rode a giant eagle and traveled around the Southern Wilderness, and dealt with several tribes."
Then, the old witch told about the tribes he met on the road and some interesting experiences.
For example, he went to the fierce crocodile tribe. This tribe breeds a large number of crocodiles. They are fierce and warlike, and they especially like to eat raw meat.
There is also the bamboo rat tribe. The people of this tribe like to live in holes in the ground. They are very timid and will crawl into the hole at the slightest disturbance.
In addition to these two tribes, the old witch has also visited several tribes. According to the old witch's description, these tribes have their own characteristics and are very interesting.
The old witch himself is very powerful, and he also knows the skills of a witch doctor, and can cure diseases and save people. Coupled with the terrifying giant eagle and the background of the Eastern Wild Eagle Tribe, no matter where he goes, no one dares to attack him easily.<
/p>
If they were ordinary warriors, these tribes might not be so polite.
"By the way, I also brought you some things from other tribes."
The old witch opened an animal skin bag and took out a bunch of small colorful fruits, which were very beautiful.
"What is this?" Jiang Xuan asked curiously.
"This is a colorful fruit. I got it from a small tribe. It is slightly poisonous, but people who eat it will only feel uncomfortable for a long time, and the poison will not kill them."
"In that small tribe, in order to prove their courage, warriors would eat this colorful fruit in front of everyone."
The old witch smiled and said: "Chief Xuan, do you want to prove your courage?"
Jiang Xuan asked uncertainly: "Is this thing really poisonous?"
The old wizard said: "You are now a four-color warrior. This thing is nothing to you. Do you want to try it?"
Jiang Xuan looked at the fruit with various colors and as big as a small light bulb, and said: "Then, give it a try."
Jiang Xuan took a thumb-sized colored fruit, washed it first, then put it in his mouth, biting half of it tentatively without swallowing it.
Soon, Jiang Xuan's expression changed. He spit out half of the fruit he had bitten off and spit it out on the ground, sticking out his tongue and fanning it continuously.
"It's spicy...it's spicy to death..."
"Water...water..."
Jiang Xuan ran to the newly filled water tank, took a spoonful of cold water with a ladle, and rinsed his mouth constantly to relieve the irritation on the tip of his tongue.
"Hahaha..."
The old witch laughed like a child who had succeeded in his prank and said: "Chief Xuan, the warrior of that small tribe, his face did not change after eating the colorful fruits."
To be continued...
