Under the enlightenment of Shen Teng, the first big tree not only grew eyes, but also quickly grew a mouth and let out a dull roar.
Immediately afterwards, there was the second big tree, the third big tree...
I saw that in the forest south of the Vine tribe, hundreds of big trees had all been enlightened into tree-men.
These tree men opened their eyes one after another, waving their thick branches excitedly, making a "rustling" sound.
There were also a few tree men who pulled their roots out of the ground, moved quickly on the ground like octopuses, and then took root in another location.
Perhaps these big trees have long been dissatisfied with the place where they grew. As soon as they are able to move, they will quickly take root in another place.
On the sentry post, Jiang Xuan and the Teng tribe warriors watched this scene, and everyone's jaws dropped in shock.
Jiang Xuan was originally prepared to fight first and run away if he couldn't win, but now it seems that there is no need for that.
"Kill..."
The warriors of the Black Snake Tribe have already rushed over. The totem patterns on their faces actually glowed faintly, and they were running at an astonishing speed.
Finally, the first group of snake tribe warriors ran into the forest outside the vine wall.
However, when they were about to move forward, they saw that the big trees in front of them suddenly came to life. A human face grew out of the trunks of these big trees, and then they roared at the warriors of the Black Snake Tribe.
"roar!"
"Pa bang bang..."
A tree man waved a thick branch and slapped the warriors of the Black Snake Tribe, sending many of them flying away and breaking their bones and tendons.
A warrior from the Black Snake tribe shouted in horror: "These trees are alive..."
In other parts of the forest, the Black Snake Tribe warriors who rushed in also encountered the same problem. Rows of huge trees became active and suddenly attacked them, beating these Black Snake Tribe warriors until they howled like ghosts.
The power of tree people is really terrifying, and they are so huge that if a branch is swept over, there will be no place to hide in a large area of land.
More than a hundred tree men attacked at the same time, and more than 6,000 Black Snake tribe warriors were beaten to the ground, rolling and crawling back.
What's even worse is that there are not only tree people in this forest.
Those ordinary vines, weeds, and shrubs were also blessed by the divine vine. Although they did not grow eyes and mouths like the tree men, they also possessed some spirituality and mobility abilities.
A three-color warrior from the Black Snake tribe was relying on his swift speed to avoid the attacks of the tree men in the forest. When he landed on the ground, his feet were suddenly entangled by an ordinary vine.
Normally, he wouldn't have cared about such ordinary vines at all, and could break them with brute force.
But now, after he was entangled, the tree man's terrifying branches smacked him directly.
"ah!"
The three-color warrior let out a scream, and saw that his bones were broken and his muscles were broken by the branches of the tree man, and there were wounds all over his body.
The tree man pulled out the thick tree roots from the ground, and then moved over the three-color warrior.
After the tree man passed by, the three-color warrior was already dead and even his spear was broken into several pieces.
"Too fierce!"
On the sentry post, Jiang Xuan watched hundreds of tree men chasing more than 6,000 Black Snake tribe warriors and exclaimed.
Chi Shao smiled and said: "With the Vine God here, the entire forest is owned by our own people. How can it be so easy for people from outside tribes to invade."
"The whole forest is owned by our own people!"
Jiang Xuan was amazed again. For the first time, he truly felt the terrifying power of Shen Teng.
As long as it is in the forest, it can let all the plants help fight.
But Jiang Xuan thought of another question: "Why didn't Teng Shen bring out some trees before?"
Chi Shao replied: "Maybe it's because it consumes too much divine power."
Jiang Xuan nodded. It is indeed not easy to turn a big tree into a tree man. If it is like that big black snake, even a great god cannot do it.
Jiang Xuan guessed that after Shen Teng absorbed the soul and power of the Bird God, its strength increased significantly, and it even had the strength of a great god, so it was able to transform hundreds of big trees into tree people.
If Shen Teng's strength continues to grow, he may be able to transform all the big trees in the forest into treants in the future.
When Jiang Xuan thought that the big trees around the Goteng tribe were all tree people, his heart suddenly surged.
What a shocking scene that must be!
However, Jiang Xuan thought of another question, so he asked Chi Shao in a low voice: "If we want to cut down trees in the future, these tree people won't stop us, right?"
The tribe now mainly burns firewood, and all kinds of tools and utensils can only be made by cutting down wood.
If these tree people don't let the Vine Tribe cut down the trees by then, wouldn't it be the end?
"This... I have to ask Fujigami to find out."
Chi Shao closed her eyes, communicated with Shendou for a moment, and then opened her eyes again.
"How is it?" Jiang Xuan looked at her.
"Teng Shen asked me to ask you, why are the tribes all human, but they often fight each other?"
"This... of course is for survival."
Chi Shao said: "Humans are trying to survive, and so are plants. The struggle for survival among plants is even more intense."
An idea flashed in Jiang Xuan's mind: "In other words, if we cut down some trees, it will be more conducive to the growth of other big trees?"
Chi Shao nodded and said: "That's what Teng Shen means."
"Then I'll feel relieved."
Jiang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. If he was not allowed to cut down trees in the future, it would be really troublesome.
In the forest, the battle ended quickly.
Although the Black Snake Tribe has a large number of warriors, facing those huge tree people, no matter how many they have, it is useless, and it is difficult to cause fatal damage to the tree people.
More than 6,000 Black Snake tribe warriors fled the forest in embarrassment after leaving their corpses on the ground.
The tree people did not pursue them. After driving them away, some returned to the place where they grew before, while others found another place to take root.
As long as they don't open their eyes or move around, they are almost no different from ordinary big trees.

Not far away, over the forest, the big black snake kept swimming back and forth. It was very angry and aggrieved. In the end, it did not dare to rush into the Vine tribe because it was afraid that the divine Vine would cause another thunder disaster.
It stared at Shen Teng for a while, then swung its tail and swam directly in the other direction.
On the ground, the black snake tribe shaman received instructions from the snake god. He said with a very ugly face: "Oracle, bypass this tribe and continue moving forward!"
"Crack!"
The leader of the Black Snake tribe punched the tree trunk next to him, breaking a tree as big as a soup basin in half.
"Walk!"
The leader of the Black Snake Tribe sat on the back of a big snake. The big snake immediately started swimming, leading the leader of the Black Snake Tribe towards the direction of the snake god.
The shaman of the Black Snake Tribe also left sitting on a big black snake.
More than 10,000 members of the Black Snake Tribe followed one after another. Everyone felt aggrieved, but there was nothing they could do.
This was the first time they encountered a tribe that couldn't be chewed, and it seemed to be only a medium-sized tribe.
Soon, everyone in the Black Snake tribe left.
Jiang Xuan rode Tang Yuan and followed him from a distance. He finally breathed a sigh of relief until he was sure that the Black Snake Tribe had left and did not turn back to engage in conspiracy.
The crisis in the Vine Tribe was finally resolved without any casualties.
On the other side, the frog tribe that had been waiting by the river bank finally felt relieved.
"Finally gone."
Huo Meng and Wu looked at each other, they both breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.
When the Black Snake Tribe came over, they were really scared.
Hatred belongs to hatred, so they did not dare to let the Frog Tribe go to the Black Snake Tribe to fight for their lives. They were even ready to escape when they saw the Black Snake Tribe.
Today's frog tribe has regained its possession of many giant frogs. If the black tribe attacks this side, they will immediately ride the giant frogs across the river and run away first.
Fortunately, the worst case did not happen, and they are still a good subsidiary tribe of the Vine Tribe.
"Wu, what should we do now?"
Wu thought about it carefully and said: "Take all the tribe's warriors and go to the outside of the vine wall. Make it look like you are going to fight to the death with the Black Snake Tribe. You can't let the Vine Tribe discover what we were trying to do just now."
"good!"
Huo Meng immediately summoned the warriors of the Frog Tribe, first put back the things he had packed, then each picked up their weapons and entered the woods outside the vine wall.
When the crisis was over, the door on the vine wall opened again. Huo Meng immediately ran to the door and found Jiang Xuan.
"Chief Xuan, where are the people from the Black Snake Tribe?"
Jiang Xuan looked at Huo Meng with a half-smile but said, "He has already run away."
Huo Meng said indignantly: "What a pity, I originally wanted to kill a few more stinky snakes for revenge!"
Jiang Xuandao: "Don't worry, Leader Huo Meng, there will be another chance in the future."
Huo Meng always felt that Jiang Xuan's eyes were strange and he felt unnatural. Therefore, after expressing a few words of loyalty, Huo Meng said goodbye and left.
After Huo Meng left, Feng Cao appeared next to Jiang Xuan.
"Chief, I can't believe these people in the Frog Tribe. They clearly wanted to run away just now, and now they are deliberately showing off to us."
Jiang Xuan smiled and said: "It's normal for them to want to run away. After all, the population of the Frog Tribe is very small now. If they really fight with the Black Snake Tribe, the Frog Tribe may be exterminated."
After listening to Jiang Xuan's words, Feng Cao added, "Then they don't have to act like this on purpose, right?"
"It's understandable to show loyalty, but you'd better place a few people in the frog tribe in the future."
"I can tolerate the timidity of the frog tribe, but I can never tolerate betrayal!"
"Don't worry, chief, I'll make arrangements right away."
The wind grass quickly disappeared into the woods again.
Under her leadership, Thorn Vine has gradually grown to a certain scale. It is not difficult for her to place a few people in the Frog Tribe or even bribe some people.
After handling this matter, Jiang Xuan didn't pay much attention to it. To put it bluntly, with the current strength of the Frog Tribe, he still looked down upon it.
"Uncaria and Stone Loach, you take the hunting team over and dispose of the corpses left by the Black Snake Tribe. Remove everything that can be used and dig a few holes for the corpses to bury them."
"yes!"
Uncaria and Stone Loach immediately took people over to dispose of the body.
In the past, everyone had a feeling of fear, because some people had witnessed the power of those tree people.
They were afraid that when they were picking up the bodies, the tree people would attack them.
However, their worries are obviously unnecessary.
The tree men didn't move at all. A few tree men opened their eyes and looked at them curiously, but the other tree men didn't even open their eyes at all.
The hunting team successfully disposed of the corpses and took away all items such as weapons, animal skin clothing, animal skin bags, food, and medicine.
For the naked bodies, several large pits were dug, dragged over and buried.
After the hunting team left, many tree people opened their eyes again. They pulled out the roots and ran towards the place where the corpse was buried, and then scrambled to take root on it.
After some confusion, some tree men took over the places where the corpses were buried.
The tree people who didn't grab a spot could only return to their original place in frustration and wait for the next opportunity.
Corpses are good nutrients for plants, and tree people also like them very much.
Vine tribe, Uncaria house, night.
"Auntie, why can't you go out when it's dark?"
Poria sat on the threshold, and Tiandong, who was more than two years old, lay in her arms, curiously asking various questions.
At this time, the moon was like water, and the whole tribe became quiet.
Poria looked at Tiandong fondly, scratched his little nose, and said: "Because when it gets dark, all kinds of ferocious beasts come out. If you go out after dark, you will be eaten by ferocious beasts."
"Then why hasn't dad come back yet?"
"Because your father is a warrior in the tribe and has to hunt far away so that we can have meat to eat."
Hearing the word "hunting", Xiao Tiandong clenched his fists with longing on his face: "When I grow up, I will become a warrior like my father, go hunting and eat meat!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Poria laughed dumbly: "Okay, from now on our family Tiandong will be a brave warrior and eat meat every day."
"I will definitely do it!"
Xiao Tiandong is very serious and his eyes are very firm.
Poria rubbed Tiandong's little head, looked at the moon in the sky, and then looked at the mysterious rocky mountains at night, praying that Uncaria would return safely with its prey.
Every time the tribesmen go out to hunt or fight, they will encounter various dangers. Those who stay at home will inevitably be worried.
Because no one knows whether this time is a separation of life and death.
Precisely because of this extreme lack of security, tribal people need faith. Faith can bring courage and spiritual sustenance to people, allowing them to become braver.
"Auntie, I want to listen to hunting songs..."
"good."
Poria cleared her throat, and then sang softly in a very ancient tune:
"Primitive forest, food is everywhere."
"You brave warrior, come into the mountains to hunt."
"Dense woods, be careful of wild beasts."
"Sharp weapons are your helpers."
"Don't go when the water is deep, don't go when the mountains are high."
…
"After hunting, everyone eats meat."
"After hunting, everyone eats meat."
The ancient and simple hunting song floated in the night sky as Poria cocos hummed it repeatedly.
Little Tiandong, who was over two years old, gradually couldn't hold his eyelids any longer as he listened, and soon fell asleep.
Perhaps, in the dream, he will become a brave warrior, walk into the mysterious forest, fight with various beasts, and finally return with a full load of prey.
"I fell asleep so quickly."
After Poria sang several times, she looked down and saw that Tiandong was already fast asleep, and her little face looked particularly cute in her sleep.
Poria couldn't help but kiss Xiao Tiandong on the forehead, then carried him to the house and put him on the bed.
In order to prevent mosquito bites, Poria went outside the house and pulled out a handful of fan grass, kneaded the juice, and smeared it on Tiandong's clothes and beside the bed, so that mosquitoes would not come near.
In fact, she could also dig out some charcoal fire in the fire pit and put a handful of stink grass on it to simmer.
However, burning stink grass produces strong smoke and is quite choking, and Poria cocos is afraid of choking children.
After finishing this, Fuling took out a few pieces of cut animal skin, bronze needles and thin thread, and began to sew.
As the owner of a clothing workshop, Fuling works very hard. Whenever she has time, she will think about how to sew better clothes, backpacks, and shoes.
