Jiang Xuan followed the route guided by Wu Yu and flew south.
He searched for several tribes along the way one by one. After finding them, he could be sure that his route was correct.
He rode Tang Yuan and kept flying and searching. After many twists and turns, he finally flew near the Spider Tribe on the eighth day.
The black-toothed bird took five or six days to fly, but Jiang Xuan rode the faster glutinous rice ball, but it took eight days to fly there. Half of the time was spent on finding the way and determining the location of the tribes along the way.
"Boom!"
The glutinous rice balls landed in an open space. Jiang Xuan looked forward and saw a large number of spider webs in the forest. Spiders of various colors and sizes lay on the webs and swayed in the wind.
On a big tree not far away, the bark was scraped white, and a totem pattern was painted on it with black paint. The totem pattern looked like a scary big black spider.
"That's right, it should be right here."
Jiang Xuan looked at the cobweb-covered forest and slowly walked forward with the glutinous rice balls.
After walking not far, Jiang Xuan came across several dilapidated wooden houses and several tourists in the wooden houses.
When these tourists saw Jiang Xuan approaching, they all shrank back into the house, with fear and vigilance in their eyes.
Jiang Xuan didn't care, because most of the tourists were timid, not to mention that he brought a vicious bird like glutinous rice balls with him.
A normal large tribe would definitely have tourists gathering around it.
Because the virgin forest is too dangerous, the forests outside the large tribe are relatively safer. If the large tribe happens to need people, you can still find opportunities to join them.
There are very few people like the ant tribe.
He continued to walk forward, and more spiders appeared in the forest. The small ones were only as big as a thumb, and the big ones were as big as a calf. They spread their eight long legs and ran very fast on the trees and on the ground.
horrible.
Some spiders also have complicated patterns on their backs, some of which look like eyes, and some of which look like weird human faces, which make people’s hair stand on end after seeing them.
"Shashasha..."
Jiang Xuan continued to walk forward for a while, and suddenly a dozen large spiders appeared in front of him, with warriors from the Spider Tribe sitting on the backs of the large spiders.
The leader among them is a strong female warrior. She is wearing animal skin clothing, holding a black spear in her hand, and has a terrifying black totem pattern painted on her face, which is simply intimidating.
The female warrior pointed at Jiang Xuan with the spear in her hand and asked: "Which tribe do you belong to?"
Jiang Xuan replied neither humble nor arrogantly: "I come from the Vine tribe."
"Vine tribe?"
The female warrior thought about it carefully and found that she had never heard of this tribe, so she didn't care.
"What are you doing in our spider tribe?"
"I heard that the Spider Silk Clothing from the Spider Tribe is a rare treasure. I wanted to come over and see if I could trade a few pieces."
"Want to trade Spider Silk Clothes?"
The female warrior looked Jiang Xuan over, then nodded and said: "Since you want to trade the spider silk clothes, then come with me, but this big purple bird must stay outside."
Those big spiders were all agitated in front of Tangyuan, so the female warrior didn't want Tangyuan to go in.
Jiang Xuan turned around helplessly and said to Tangyuan: "You can hunt nearby by yourself. Remember, don't hurt anyone."
Although Tangyuan was a little dissatisfied, this happened not once or twice. It turned around and left, walked to the open space and took off.
After Tang Yuan left, the big spiders finally stopped being anxious. The female warrior rode on the back of a big spider, flicked her hair and said, "Come with us."
Those big spiders spread their long legs again and ran forward quickly.
Jiang Xuan immediately followed. He kept jumping and running with the help of big trees. His speed was no slower than those big spiders.
The female warrior looked back and nodded slightly. This five-color warrior was the real deal.
Not long after, they passed through the vast forest and entered the real territory of the Spider Tribe.
Jiang Xuan felt as if he had entered a silk cave. There were spider webs and big spiders everywhere.
Jiang Xuan also discovered a detail, that is, the powerful spider tribe warriors are often women, while the male warriors look weaker.
This situation is relatively rare, because Jiang Xuan has been to many tribes, and most of them are male warriors who are stronger, because men are naturally stronger in physical fitness and naturally more powerful in hunting.
But in the Spider Tribe, this common sense was broken.
The women of the Spider Tribe are all very strong and powerful, steadily suppressing the male warriors, and occupying various important positions in the tribe.
Jiang Xuan couldn't figure out what was going on, and he didn't ask blindly. After all, the two parties were not familiar with each other.
The female warrior led Jiang Xuan all the way, and finally arrived at the Spider Tribe's residential area.
As soon as Jiang Xuan walked to the entrance of the Spider Tribe's residential area, he was startled because he saw a black spider as big as a house lying quietly at the entrance of the residential area.
"What a big spider!"
Jiang Xuan had never seen such a big spider before and was really shocked.
The female warrior said proudly: "What you see now is the skin that our Spider God shed a long time ago."
Spiders shed their skin?
Jiang Xuan had seen the skin shed by a little spider, but that skin looked like an empty shell, not as lifelike and full of oppression as the skin shed by the spider god in front of him.
Perhaps the spider god's skin in front of him has been specially treated and decorated.
Jiang Xuan walked around the huge spider skin and continued walking forward.
The architecture of the Spider Tribe is very interesting. It is made of civil structures and looks exactly like a spider.
At first glance, I thought it was a group of house-sized spiders lying on the ground.
The female warrior took Jiang Xuan to an open space in front of the residential area and said, "You wait here for a moment, I will ask the leader to come over."
Jiang Xuan nodded and waited where he was.
After the female warrior left, the nearby spider tribe members looked at Jiang Xuan curiously, but no one came close.
Not far away, those spiders were crawling around as if no one was around.
Jiang Xuan noticed that small spiders usually spin silk and build webs, but large spiders do not build webs, but prey like beasts.
He also noticed that the spider tribe planted many edible food vegetables and fruit trees.
Where the spider tribe is located, the climate is relatively warm even in winter, and those grains and vegetables grow very luxuriantly.
The most important thing is that Jiang Xuan found that most of the leaves of these grains and vegetables were relatively complete and had hardly been eaten by insects.
The reason for such a result should be related to those spiders.
There are too many spiders in the spider tribe, and all kinds of pests are their food. Those pests cannot reproduce on a large scale.
Precisely because there is no threat of pests, the spider tribe's planting industry is better than other tribes in the central region, and they grow more types of grains and vegetables.
Jiang Xuan waited patiently while observing the spider tribe.
Not long after, a female warrior about twenty years old appeared, with four-color warrior patterns painted on her face!
Jiang Xuan was surprised. Apart from the Vine tribe, this was the first time he saw such a young four-color warrior.
The female warrior also has black totem lines painted on her face, and her long hair is tied into a ponytail. It may be because she exercises a lot and has a pretty good figure.
Jiang Xuan's focus was not on her figure, but on the clothes she was wearing.
The female warrior is not wearing an animal skin coat, but a satin-like spider silk coat!
Moreover, the spider silk dress she wore was not a monotonous solid color, but had some colorful and beautiful patterns on it.
Such clothes are so rare among primitive tribes that they can be described as rare treasures.
The female warrior walked up to Jiang Xuan and looked at him first, with the same surprised look in her eyes.
Then, she said: "Spider tribe, leader of the guard team, Red Spider."
Her voice was surprisingly pleasant and had a wild nature to it.
"The leader of the Vine Tribe, Xuan."
Jiang Xuan's voice was relatively calm, without the slightest hint of panic.
What a young tribal leader!
Red Spider continued to look at Jiang Xuan with an aggressive, even unscrupulous look in his eyes.
Jiang Xuan was a little unaccustomed to this kind of look. Women from other tribes were also more wild, but not as aggressive as women from the Spider tribe.
"You want to trade Spider Silk Clothes?"
"That's right."
"Have you brought the goods?"
"The cargo is on the back of my horse, and your people won't let it in."
Red Spider frowned slightly. The Spider Tribe usually would not refuse entry to the mounts of other tribe warriors.
She turned around and asked the female warrior in a low voice: "What's going on?"
The female warrior explained: "His mount is a purple bird that is taller than the house. Our spider doesn't like that bird."
What the female warrior said aroused the interest of Red Spider. She said to Jiang Xuande: "Since we are making a deal, we must see the goods first. How about this? You call your mount to the open space."
After the female warrior finished speaking, she pointed to a large open space in front of the residential area. In that open space, there were almost no spiders.
"good."
Jiang Xuan took out the bone whistle, put it to his lips and started blowing "wuwu" towards the sky.
"Hey..."
Not long after, a response came from the distance, and a purple fierce bird flew from a certain mountain top, and then flew straight to where Jiang Xuan was.
With a wingspan of forty or fifty meters, Tangyuan is already a truly giant creature, and its purple feathers shine brightly in the sun.
When it landed on the spider tribe, it cast a large shadow, and the nearby big spider disappeared with a "swish" sound.
"Boom!"
The glutinous rice balls fell to the ground, leaving many deep holes in the soil with their claws.
"So big..."
The red spider looked at the huge glutinous rice balls and was a little distracted for a moment.
Even in dangerous primeval forests, ferocious birds as huge as glutinous rice balls are rare.
Jiang Xuan didn't care about this. After all, it was Red Spider who asked him to summon him. Whether it scared those spiders or people, it was Red Spider's responsibility.
He walked to Tangyuan without any care, then took off an animal skin bag from Tangyuan's back that had never been taken out to trade with other tribes, and returned to the ground.
The goods in this animal skin bag were specially kept by him to trade spider silk clothing with the Spider Tribe.
