"Chief Xuan, if you want to make a deal, you are right to find our Shangui Tribe."
Mountain Turtle held up his chest and said proudly: "Our Mountain Turtle Tribe has a lot of goods, and the tribes near the Great Swamp like to come to our Mountain Turtle Tribe to do business."
Jiang Xuan smiled and said: "It is precisely because I know how powerful the Mountain Turtle Tribe is that I came all the way to find you."
When Shan Jia heard this, he immediately felt very helpful. The two walked towards Shan Gui tribe talking and laughing. Chi Shao also followed, but did not speak much.
The warriors of the Vine Tribe and the Mountain Turtle Tribe, as well as the two big mountain turtles, followed behind.
Half a day later, Jiang Xuan followed Shanjia to the great swamp.
This is a vast swamp, a wetland rich in materials, in which countless aquatic plants and animals live.
There are various fish and water animals in the water, and there are various birds, beasts, insects and snakes in the trees. For the tribal people, this is a very ideal place to live.
"Ahead is our Mountain Turtle Tribe."
After seeing the large swamp, Mountain Turtle's mood was obviously better, and the warriors of Mountain Turtle tribe also relaxed a little.
After walking for a while, there was indeed a continuous stretch of buildings in front of them, with no less than a hundred large and small rooms, and smoke curling from the kitchens.
Outside these buildings, there are also fence-like fences made of stone and wood, surrounding all the buildings.
This is the Mountain Turtle tribe. They live on a higher flat land next to the large swamp.
Outside the Mountain Turtle Tribe, huge mountain turtles can be seen everywhere. Some are basking in the sun on land, some enter the swamp to hunt for food, and some are walking leisurely and slowly...
Inside the tribe, many members of the Mountain Turtle tribe are also busy. Some are processing prey, while others are drying furs, weaving ropes, and polishing various weapons.
There were still children chasing each other and playing happily in the open space. Occasionally, some children climbed onto the back of the big mountain turtle. The turtle was not angry and carried them forward slowly.
What a mountain turtle tribe!
Jiang Xuan looked at the vibrant mountain turtle tribe and felt a little envious.
The warriors of the Vine Tribe also talked in low voices, with envy in their eyes.
The warriors of the Shangui Tribe all smiled, with proud expressions on their faces, and their waists straightened up a bit.
The tribe is strong, which is a lucky thing for all the tribe members, and they are not easily bullied when walking outside.
When Shanjia and others arrived at the entrance of the tribe, the guarding warrior and some nearby Shangui tribe members came to greet them.
"The leader is back!"
"Is the harvest big?"
…
They asked questions in a flurry, and the Shanjia and the Shangui tribe warriors responded with smiles, feeling quite good.
Soon, the people of the Shangui tribe noticed Jiang Xuan and others.
The guard soldier asked: "Chief, which tribe do these people belong to?"
Shanjia replied: "They are people from the Vine tribe, and they came here specifically to do business."
"So that's it."
The people of the Mountain Turtle Tribe have never heard of the Vine Tribe, but this does not hinder their enthusiasm, because any tribe that comes to trade can always bring them a lot of good things.
"Chief Xuan, the shaman of the Teng tribe, please come inside."
Shanjia led Jiang Xuan and others into the Shangui tribe, took them to a large room in the center of the tribe to rest, and gave them some food to entertain them.
Not long after, the shaman from the Shangui Tribe heard that the shaman from the Teng Tribe had arrived. He personally came out to receive Red Shao and discussed some knowledge about herbal medicine with Red Shao.
The shaman of the Mountain Turtle Tribe is an old man with white beard and hair. He looks very thin and a little hunched. He walks slowly, just like an old mountain turtle.
He and Red Shao are both witches, and they are not hostile. Red Shao has rich knowledge of herbal medicine, so the two of them talk happily.
It is natural for witches to talk to witches, chiefs to chiefs, and ordinary warriors to ordinary warriors.
"Chief Xuan, come and try our mushroom kebabs. This stuff is not easy to eat elsewhere."
Shan Jia took two portions of freshly grilled mushroom meat skewers and sat next to Jiang Xuan. He handed one skewer to Jiang Xuan and ate the other himself.
"Then I have to try it."
Jiang Xuan took the mushroom skewers. He found that this kind of skewers was very strange. The meat and mushrooms were cut into pieces, and then the mushrooms were stacked one on top of the other. Finally, they were skewered into a large skewer and grilled.
Jiang Xuan has eaten barbecued meat, and he has also eaten grilled mushrooms, but he has never eaten mushrooms grilled with meat.
Jiang Xuan took a tentative bite, and the aroma of barbecue and the umami of mushrooms bloomed on the tip of his tongue at the same time, bringing a wonderful taste experience.
"tasty!"
Jiang Xuan praised him sincerely.
"Hahaha, I knew Leader Xuan would like it."
Goblin approached Jiang Xuan and whispered mysteriously: "Because I also sprinkled salt on the meat skewers."
Shanjia gave Jiang Xuan a "you know" look.
"That's it, no wonder it's so delicious."
Jiang Xuan nodded, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
For people in small tribes, salt is definitely a very precious thing, because they have too few channels to obtain salt.
Small tribes often have to pay a high price to trade some salt from medium-sized tribes or large tribes.
In order to save salt, people in small tribes usually mainly rely on drinking animal blood to obtain salt. Adding salt to barbecue and serving it to entertain people is already considered a luxury, and it also has an element of showing off.
Of course, if the mountain beetle knew that the Vine Tribe had an endless supply of salt, I'm afraid they wouldn't want to show off.
The two of them didn't talk about anything anymore and concentrated on eating.
Both of them ate very quickly, and soon there were only two sticks left of the mushroom skewers.
The still-unsatisfied Gojia brought over a few more large skewers and ate them with Jiang Xuan, but this time there was no salt added, so the taste was quite different.
After eating, the golin wiped his mouth casually and sighed: "It's so delicious. No matter how many times I eat it, I still feel like I can't get enough."
Jiang Xuan agreed: "It's indeed delicious."
Mushrooms are actually not an ideal food for many tribal people because many mushrooms are poisonous.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Many people have lost their lives because of eating poisonous mushrooms. Over time, everyone is a little afraid of this delicious food.
Even Jiang Xuan, when he led the Vine Tribe warriors to search for food, rarely collected mushrooms unless they came across familiar varieties that were sure to be non-toxic.
Only people like the Mountain Turtle Tribe, who have been dealing with the mushroom forest for a long time and understand all kinds of mushrooms, would pick a large number of mushrooms for consumption.
After eating and drinking, we finally started talking about business.
Shanjia asked: "Chief Xuan, I wonder what you want to trade with us when you come here this time?"
Jiang Xuandao: "We want to trade some mushrooms that can increase our strength if eaten. For example, the powerful mushrooms you gave us last time are very good."
Shanjia had a bright smile on his face, because most of the tribesmen who came to the Shanjia tribe to do business wanted similar things to Jiang Xuan.
The powerful mushrooms given to Jiang Xuan and the others last time were both a thank-you gift and a trial product. They have been used well. Are you afraid that you won’t come to the Shangui Tribe to do business?
The mountain beetle looks big and thick, and wears a huge tortoise shell every day. It looks quite funny, but in fact he is very smart and even a little cunning.
Shanjia said: "What a coincidence, this time we went to the mushroom forest and picked a lot of strong mushrooms, all of which were fresh."
Jiang Xuan asked again: "Besides the powerful mushroom, are there any other mushrooms that can increase strength?"
There are many types of mushrooms in the Mushroom Forest. Jiang Xuan guessed that there must be more than one type of mushroom that can increase strength, so he asked directly.
The mountain beetle smiled even brighter.
"Of course there is. In addition to the powerful mushroom that can increase strength, there are also swift mushrooms that can increase speed, big-eared mushrooms that can enhance hearing, and eagle-eyed mushrooms that can enhance vision..."
Listening to Shanjia's introduction, Jiang Xuan felt that it was an eye-opener.
He has long known that there are many magical plants in this world, which after eating can enhance people's abilities in various aspects.
But he never imagined that there are so many kinds of mushrooms that can enhance people's strength.
However, Jiang Xuan soon discovered something was wrong.
If the Mountain Turtle tribe really has so many strength-enhancing mushrooms, wouldn't everyone in their tribe's warriors become very powerful?
Then why is it that the Mountain Turtle Tribe is still a small tribe and even the Mosquito Tribe dares to ambush them?
