On the big tree, Jiang Xuan and others looked at the battlefield outside the mushroom forest with lingering fear.
The corpses of the mosquito tribe have all been taken away, while the corpses of giant wasps are still scattered on the ground. Some giant wasps that are not dead still move their legs from time to time.
"Is everyone gone?"
On the big tree, Jiang Xuan first observed the huge hornet's nest and determined that most of the giant hornets had returned to the nest.
He found that the five feather arrows with a strong smell had been bitten into several pieces, dragged out by the giant wasp, and thrown far away.
Even some parts of the hive that were contaminated by the smell of the arrows were torn off by those giant wasps and then cleaned out.
The current wasp nest looks like it is riddled with holes, but within a few days, the hive will be restored to its original state.
"The scary giant wasp."
Jiang Xuan thought of the scene where a swarm of giant wasps roared just now. Although it was not directed at them, he still felt frightened.
The combat effectiveness of a single giant wasp is not very strong, and any warrior of the same color can easily deal with it, but when they fight in groups, even the wild bears have to stay away.
Jiang Xuan led the others and climbed down from the tree, deliberately avoiding the location of the hornet's nest to prevent the hornet that was still in a furious state from running out again.
"The people from the mosquito tribe have also fled away."
Stone Loach cautiously went to the woods to check and made sure that all the people in the Mosquito Tribe were gone, and then came back to report to Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan said with satisfaction: "Many people from the Mosquito Tribe died this time, and we have indirectly weakened the Mosquito Tribe's strength."
Others also had smiles on their faces. The damage to the Mosquito Tribe is a good thing for the Vine Tribe.
Shi Loach asked: "Chief, what should we do next?"
Jiang Xuan thought for a while and said: "Our strength is too weak. No matter which side we face, we have no confidence. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, so we should go back first."
Everyone nodded, this place is too dangerous for them.
Although Jiang Xuan was a little reluctant to part with this mushroom forest, because he believed that the mosquito tribe would never ambush here for no reason, and it must be to obtain some kind of benefit.
In other words, there are definitely enough attractive things in the mushroom forest.
It's a pity that the Vine Tribe is too weak and has no understanding of the Mushroom Forest. Even if there are good things, they can't get them.
"When the tribe becomes stronger in the future, let's find another opportunity to come here."
Jiang Xuan shook his head and planned to return to the tribe and hunt some prey on the way.
They followed the original path and walked back around the mushroom forest.
However, they had not gone far when suddenly there was a man in a turtle shell in the mushroom forest, standing on a huge mushroom and staring at it. He waved in this direction and shouted loudly: "Wait a moment!"
Jiang Xuan and others stopped and stared over there warily.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Xuan responded while using gestures to tell everyone to get ready and run away if something goes wrong.
"Did you shoot the arrow just now?" The man wearing the turtle shell continued to wave.
Jiang Xuan thought for a while, those few arrows just now defrauded the Mosquito tribe, but they helped the people of this strange tribe. There is nothing that he cannot admit.
"Yes, we shot it!"
The man wearing the turtle shell looked happy and continued to shout: "We are from the Mountain Turtle Tribe. The arrows you shot just now attracted the hornets and helped us."
"The Mountain Turtle Tribe always repays kindness, and our leader said that we would like to thank you very much."
"How can I thank you?"
Jiang Xuan did not relax his vigilance, because in the jungle, various tribes fought fiercely for resources. If you trust a person from a strange tribe, you may bring disaster to yourself.
People who are too simple cannot survive in such a harsh environment.
At this moment, a huge mountain turtle slowly walked out of the mushroom forest. Beside the big mountain turtle, there was a middle-aged man wearing a large turtle shell.
Behind the middle-aged man, there were seventy or eighty warriors, as well as another big mountain turtle.
"Our leader is here!"
The man standing on top of the giant mushroom shouted, and then climbed down the strange giant mushroom.
The middle-aged warrior wearing a large turtle shell shouted to Jiang Xuan from a distance: "Friends across the way, I am the leader of the Shangui tribe, Shanjia, which tribe are you from?"
"We are from the Vine Tribe!" Jiang Xuan replied.
"Vine tribe..."
Shanjia thought about it and realized that he had never heard of this name before. It was probably a remote and small tribe with little reputation.
But the mountain armor doesn't care. After all, there are as many small tribes in the southern wilderness as there are stars in the sky. As long as they are not hostile tribes, it will be fine.
"Friends of the Vine Tribe, thank you for the arrows you just shot, which saved us from being ambushed by the Mosquito Tribe."
Shanjia solemnly said: "Our Shangui tribe always repays kindness. To thank you, I decided to give you some powerful mushrooms and three divine mushrooms."
"Powerful Mushroom? Divine Mushroom?" Jiang Xuan has never heard of these two names, so he can only guess that this should be a product of the mushroom forest, right?
I just don’t know what these two mushrooms are used for and how big they are.
If it’s a mushroom as big as a house, it’s hard to move it back.
Jiang Xuan looked at the huge mushrooms around the people of the Shangui Tribe, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should accept such a thank you gift.
Of course, until now, he still has not let down his guard. After all, the Vine Tribe has almost no contact with other tribes, so he doesn’t know what kind of tribe this Mountain Turtle Tribe is.
The mountain jia seemed to see his doubts, so he explained: "The Mushroom is a magical mushroom. Eating it can increase the strength of warriors. It is definitely good for you."
"The magic mushroom is something more precious than the powerful mushroom. It is specially eaten by the shamans of the tribe. After eating the magic mushroom, the shaman can see the patron saint of the tribe and listen to the oracle during sacrifices."
In the Shangui tribe, the divine mushroom is a very precious trading item. Each divine mushroom can be traded with other tribes for a large amount of goods.
In this era of bartering, possessing such a precious item will naturally bring a lot of benefits to the Shangui tribe.
Shanjia added: "The reason why the mosquito tribe sent so many people to ambush us is to rob us of our mushrooms."
After listening to Shanjia's words, Jiang Xuan finally had a little understanding of these two magical mushrooms.
He guessed that the Dali Mushroom should be the same as the fruit of the whip tree. Eating it can make people increase their strength. It is also a magical plant.
As for the magic mushroom specially for witches to eat, he is not sure what it does, and he doesn't know in what way Shanjia said that eating it can see the gods.
However, what is certain is that these two kinds of mushrooms are indeed good things, otherwise the mosquito tribe would not have gone to great lengths to snatch them away.
Moreover, Jiang Xuan is very sure that the Mountain Turtle Tribe in the mushroom forest will definitely pick more than these two kinds of mushrooms, and there should be more useful mushrooms.
After all, the mushroom forest is so big and there are so many types of mushrooms, it’s impossible for only one or two kinds to be useful.
Even those highly poisonous mushrooms are good things if used properly.
Shanjia waved his hand, and a warrior from the Shanjia tribe came out carrying two animal skin bags. One animal skin bag was larger, and the other was smaller.
This warrior did not walk up to Jiang Xuan, but stopped when he was still a short distance away from them, put down the two animal skin bags, one large and one small, and then returned quickly.
The mountain armor said to Jiang Xuan: "The ones in the big animal skin bag are the powerful mushrooms, and the ones in the small animal skin bag are the divine mushrooms. I give them both to you."
"It's getting late, and we have to rush back to the tribe. If there is a chance in the future, you are welcome to visit and trade with our Shangui Tribe. Our Shangui Tribe has a lot of good things, and you will definitely be satisfied."
"Okay, see you next time."
After the mountain turtle finished speaking, he took his soldiers and the two big mountain turtles back to the mushroom forest, probably going back from another place.
"Just leave like that?"
Jiang Xuan looked at the two animal skin bags on the ground not far away, feeling a little unreal for a moment.
I thought this trip would not yield much except for trapping the mosquito tribe.
Unexpectedly, I got two bags of magic mushrooms by accident.
"No matter how much it is, let's take it back first and then talk about it."
Jiang Xuan cautiously walked to the two animal skin bags without opening them. He tied them together with a rope. After making sure that there was no problem, he returned to the tribe with the two bags of mushrooms.
They climbed over mountains and ridges all the way, and were lucky enough to catch a few relatively large prey on the way back. This trip was quite fruitful.
After returning to the tribe, Jiang Xuan found Chi Shao with the two big bags of mushrooms and told her what happened.
After listening to Jiang Xuan's description, Chi Shao was very envious of their experience because it sounded very exciting.
Although her current identity is a witch from the Vine tribe, her witch is different from the witches from other tribes. She does not need to stay in the tribe every day, and will still go out to hunt often.
"Let's open it first and take a look."
Chi Shao first opened the big animal skin bag, which contained a kind of red mushroom, each one about the size of two fists.
Surprisingly, the texture of this mushroom is very similar to animal muscle. At first glance, I thought someone had cut animal meat into mushrooms.
This is the powerful mushroom that Shanjia calls. It is said that eating it can make people stronger.
Chi Shao said: "Let's try some wild animals first. It's better to be careful about the things given by strange tribes."
Jiang Xuan nodded and said: "We should indeed be more cautious. We happened to have caught a lot of wild beasts recently. I'll cut a few pieces and feed them to them."
In order to find more beasts suitable for breeding, the Vine Tribe has intentionally captured various beasts and brought them back for domestication since the ice and snow melted.
For example, black muntjac, big-horned deer, big-horned sheep, gray rabbit, one-horned bird, etc.
Now, these animals become glorious test subjects.
Jiang Xuan used a stone knife to cut a few pieces from the Dali mushroom, then took it to the breeding area, and first fed a piece of Dali mushroom to the bighorn sheep.
Jiang Xuan thought that the bighorn sheep would refuse to eat. Unexpectedly, the bighorn sheep sniffed the Dali mushroom and then happily ate it. He even licked his lips and looked at Jiang Xuan eagerly.
Jiang Xuan did not continue to feed it, but patiently observed it.
After eating the powerful mushroom, the bighorn sheep had no reaction at first. However, gradually, it became obviously energetic. First it ran around in the pen, and then hit the wooden wall of the pen with its horns. Not only that, Jiang Xuan discovered that this bighorn sheep was significantly stronger than other bighorn sheep, and it was very powerful when it hit the wooden wall.
After a long time, the bighorn sheep vented its energy and gradually became quiet, but the muscles on its body were more visible to the naked eye than before.
Other than that, there were no symptoms of poisoning or other symptoms.
Jiang Xuan tested several other beasts and found that these beasts were not poisoned, but were much stronger.
Jiang Xuan finally found a relatively thin tourist and asked him to eat half a piece of Dali mushroom.
The skinny tourist soon became hot all over his body, his blood circulation accelerated, and his muscles were obviously much stronger than before.
According to tourists, after eating the powerful mushroom, it feels like a force has been injected into the body.
"It seems that the people from the Shangui Tribe did not lie to me. Eating this powerful mushroom can indeed increase your strength."
Jiang Xuan was finally relieved and had a good impression of the Mountain Turtle Tribe. After all, if it were the Mosquito Tribe, they would definitely not be willing to give away such good things.
In Jiang Xuan's impression, mushrooms do not last long. Therefore, after Jiang Xuan determined that the Dali Mushroom was fine, he immediately gathered all the warriors of the tribe and shared the Dali Mushroom with them.
Of course, Jiang Xuan himself has the most to eat, because he is the leader and must be stronger than others in order to convince the crowd.
After Jiang Xuan ate a whole Dali Mushroom, he felt as if he had taken the medicine of tiger and wolf. His whole body felt hot, his heart was beating loudly, and his blood was flowing rapidly.
Subsequently, the muscles in his whole body changed at an alarming speed. First, the muscles in his limbs became more obvious and stronger.
Then the chest muscles, abdominal muscles, and even the muscles of the whole body were strongly stimulated.
"I feel that my whole body is full of strength!"
Jiang Xuan clenched his fist, and then suddenly hit a big tree with a "bang" sound. He made a dent in the big tree, the bark cracked, sawdust flew, and the leaves on the tree rustled.
Fall down.
"Strength has increased by about 10% compared to before!"
Jiang Xuan is quite satisfied with the result, and the effect of this powerful mushroom is amazing.
However, the next moment, Jiang Xuan felt a heartbreaking pain, and then he shook his hands vigorously.
He looked down and found that there was a little bit of skin on his fist and it was bleeding.
"It's swollen, the beating was too hard..."
This is just a small episode, the overall effect of Dali Mushroom is quite satisfactory.
Even at night, some tourists were making more noise, obviously they were too energetic and had nowhere to vent.
In addition to the powerful mushroom, another small animal skin bag also contained the divine mushroom.
According to the people of the Mountain Turtle Tribe, this is a magic mushroom more precious than the Dense Mushroom.
After all, it is specially for witches to eat.
But Jiang Xuan is not sure about the specific effect, so he needs Chi Shao to test it.
In the bamboo house, Chi Shao opened the small animal skin bag under Jiang Xuan's gaze. There were only three mushrooms in it, and each one was only as big as a walnut.
What effect do these three magic mushrooms have on witches? You will know after you try them.
