In the Feiyu River, five bamboo rafts were crossing the river together. The people of the Teng tribe on the bamboo rafts were very excited.
When they set foot on the land on the other side again, many people felt tears in their eyes.
"We are finally back!"
Gan Song knelt on the ground and picked up some soil, feeling an indescribable sense of security in his heart.
"Crops, go see how the crops are doing!"
Gan Song put down the handful of soil and hurried to the crop field.
Others could not restrain their excitement and walked back one after another.
When Gansong ran to the crop field, he found that the crop field was not damaged, but there were a lot of weeds.
Gan Song let out a sigh of relief: "That's great. The crops are all fine. We just need to weed them."
After saying that, Gan Song immediately squatted down and started pulling weeds with his bare hands, very patiently.
On the river bank, Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao were the last people to cross the river. After they crossed the river, they first dragged the bamboo raft to the bank and then walked to the bamboo forest.
On the way, Jiang Xuan saw the nard weeding, and a smile appeared on his face. This guy has become an avid planting enthusiast.
He walked for a while, and six plants in a field on the side of the road caught his attention.
"Huh? The red crystal rice seedlings have grown!"
Jiang Xuan discovered that the red crystal rice seedlings he planted earlier had grown to over a foot tall.
Its seedlings look a bit like corn seedlings, but the stems and leaves are purple-red, the main stem is thick, and the leaves are wide. It should be a grass plant.
This was an unexpected surprise, because before this, Jiang Xuan was not sure what kind of plant these red crystal rice were.
Now that he sees its seedlings, Jiang Xuan feels much more at ease.
The Vine Tribe is currently short of the staple food of the Poaceae family. If these red crystal rice can grow up smoothly and bear fruit, it will probably become one of the staple foods of the Vine Tribe in the future.
Jiang Xuan observed carefully for a while, then pulled out the weeds near the red crystal rice seedlings, and then walked to the front of the bamboo forest.
More than a hundred people had gathered in front of the bamboo forest, but no one spoke loudly, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Because among them, there is a pile of ruins already overgrown with weeds.
Although we had known for a long time that the tribe's house was burned down by the Mosquito tribe, when we actually saw this scene, everyone still found it difficult to accept it.
When Jiang Xuan saw the ruins, his face gradually darkened.
"Mosquito Tribe!"
Jiang Xuan clenched his fists, feeling angry.
At this moment, Chi Shao patted Jiang Xuan on the shoulder and said: "It doesn't matter if the house is gone, we still have a lot of things hidden in the hole."
Hearing Chi Shao's words, Jiang Xuan suddenly remembered that they hid most of their things in the hole when they evacuated.
Jiang Xuan shouted to everyone: "Don't be stunned. Find the entrance of the hole, then dig it open and take out the things inside."
"Yes, our things are still buried underground."
"Look quickly, I don't know if the food is moldy or not."
……
Jiang Xuan shouted, and everyone came back to their senses, and immediately began to dig through the ruins, looking for the entrance to the cave.
Although the house has been burned to rubble, everyone still remembers the location of the cave entrance.
Therefore, it didn't take long for someone to dig out the first hole in the ruins, and worked hard to remove the soil and stones that had blocked the hole bit by bit.
When the first hole was dug, the Vine tribe soldiers brought out a large number of tools, pottery and other things, and everyone burst into cheers.
The tuber plants stored in the hole have only sprouted, and most of them are still edible.
There are only some foods that are not shelf-stable. They are covered with penicillium when they are taken out and cannot be eaten.
This makes everyone feel very sad, which is a pity, because it is all food!
The tribesmen cherish food very much, because they often went hungry in the past, and now they are afraid of hunger.
More holes were dug and the contents were moved out.
Including the large pottery cauldron used for cooking, which is where everyone eats, and is very well hidden.
After the things in the cave were moved out, Jiang Xuan immediately asked everyone to clean up the ruins, and then temporarily built some simple shelters on the original site to protect them from wind and rain.
When everything is done, they will build houses that are stronger than before.
Jiang Xuan was helping to build a shelter when Shi Loach ran over with an ugly expression and reported to him in a low voice:
"Chief, the altar was destroyed by people from the Mosquito tribe. The three large pottery tripods were moved away. Even the totem pole was knocked down and chopped into pieces."
"Witch, over there at the altar, it seems very sad..."
Jiang Xuan's face darkened and he said, "I'll go over after I finish this work. You go ahead and do your work first."
"Okay!"
Shi Loach agreed, and then left in a hurry. There were too many things to be busy with right now.
Jiang Xuan finished building the shelter and then walked towards the bamboo forest.
The people of the Mosquito tribe did a great job. Even the huge stone with the totem pattern of the Vine tribe was scratched and changed beyond recognition.
He walked into the bamboo forest step by step and found that the bamboo house where Chi Shao lived had also been burned down. Even the hydraulic medicine mashing device he had just made was burned down.
Jiang Xuan's expression did not change, but his fists clenched tighter.
He walked to the altar and saw from a distance the empty altar, the collapsed totem pole, and the red peony root standing in front of the altar, motionless like a clay sculpture.
Jiang Xuan walked up to Chi Shao and followed her gaze. He could see the traces of swords and axes on the earthen altar, and the totem pattern could not be clearly seen.
Jiang Xuan asked softly: "Sister, don't be too sad, we will repair the altar."
Chi Shao turned around, her eyes calmer than Jiang Xuan imagined.
"I'm fine. Compared with the despair when the Deer Tribe was wiped out, now that we can come back here alive, it's already good, isn't it?"
Jiang Xuan nodded and said: "Yes, living is better than anything else."
Chi Shao said again: "I have communicated with the Teng Shen. The Teng Shen has just made a breakthrough and needs some time to recover his divine power."
"As long as the Vine God regains all his power, he will seek revenge from the Mosquito Tribe!"
"Are you going to take revenge now?"
Jiang Xuan frowned slightly, because the Vine Tribe is too weak now. Even if everyone becomes warriors, there will only be more than a hundred people.
Although Jiang Xuan doesn't know how many people there are in the Mosquito Tribe, judging from the number of people they have dispatched so far, their strength is definitely far superior to that of the Vine Tribe.
According to Jiang Xuan's idea, at this stage, we should rely on the protection of the divine vine to develop planting and breeding. After obtaining enough food, we will continue to increase the population. When the number of tribal warriors is large enough, we will seek revenge from the Mosquito tribe.
Chi Shao seemed to have guessed what Jiang Xuan was thinking, and she said calmly: "When the time comes, the Teng Shen will accompany you."
Jiang Xuan suddenly widened his eyes and said: "You mean, Teng Shen will go with us to take revenge?"
"That's right."
Chi Shao gave a positive reply.
From Chi Shao's words, Jiang Xuan confirmed something incredible, that is, after Shen Teng breaks through, he can move freely!
This is definitely a very shocking news.
You know, most plants can only grow in one place and cannot move by themselves.
But now, Shendou can move freely, which is definitely a huge advantage.
It's just that the other tribe has a living totem god. If not, what will they do to resist when Shendou is here in person?
