Chapter 159 Food (2)

Today, Xu Que decided to cook every kind of delicious food he could remember for everyone present, in turn! He wanted everyone to taste the truly wonderful flavors!

Hagang climbed up to look out and noticed that on the riverbank where the dark-skinned foreign tribe had last landed, one dugout cano after another was moored!

After the canoe reached the shore, one man after another jumped off and ran wildly toward the Black Goose tribe, weapons in hand.

Hou glanced at the Flower and Black Deer tribe's deputy leader: "Look over there, another large group of dark-skinned people from other tribes have landed on the riverbank. I reckon a fierce battle is inevitable!"

Seeing that Xu Que was going with Ha Gang, Hou followed him without Xu Que's permission and went to the primeval forest with him.

“If you follow me, won’t that just add to Ha Gang’s burden of protecting you? It’s dangerous for you too! If you get ambushed by some dark-skinned outsider hiding in the weeds, that would be a complete loss! I think you should go back! Okay?” Xu Que shouted at the person following behind him.

"No!" Roar said no more, just two firm words.

Ha Gang glanced back at the two behind him and said with a grin, "Don't worry! I can protect you all well even with ten of you! Let alone just the two of you!"

"Where did those dark-skinned foreigners hide? Where did they probably go? This primeval forest is really hard to find!" Ha Gang turned around and whispered to Xu Que and Hou, his eyes glued to the front, not daring to relax for a moment. He was terrified that a few dark-skinned foreigners might suddenly jump out of the bushes and harm Xu Que and Hou!

Xu Que had a sudden inspiration and whispered to Ha Gang, "I estimate they're stationed somewhere close to a water source! That way it'll be easier for them to get water! Maybe their main force is stationed next to that river ahead! It's less likely they're deep in the primeval forest! Think about it, how could those dark-skinned outsiders dare to venture into a place that even Ha Gang is somewhat afraid of? Unless they're all as strong as Ha Gang!"

“I’m not afraid of anything deep in the primeval forest!” Ha Gang glanced at Xu Que and corrected him.

The deeper the three of them went, the fewer paths they could pass through, until finally there was no path at all!

"Seeing that there was no road ahead, I knew that very few people had gone in here! Animals were also rarely seen! This at least meant that it was safe here! There were no large carnivores or anything like that!"

Seeing the bright red berries hanging on the branches beside them, Xu Que casually picked a few. Just as he was about to put one in his mouth to taste it, he suddenly took it out and said to Ha Gang and Hou beside him, "Can these berries be eaten? In my experience, the more brightly colored the berries, the more poisonous they are!"

Hou took the bright red, gourd-shaped fruit from Xu Que's hand and examined it for a while. Then, she hesitated slightly and said, "This is the first time I've seen this kind of fruit. I don't know if it's poisonous or anything. I've never eaten it before! I think it's better not to eat it!" As she spoke, she reached out and threw it into the bushes.

"The road here is really difficult to walk on! I don't think dark-skinned outsiders would come here, right? Even with shoes on, my feet are hurting. How can barefoot people stand it? And there are so many thorny thorns and sharp thorns on the branches of jujube trees! You can easily bleed from your feet if you're not careful!"

"Hahaha! You really underestimate the soles of our primitive feet! You think your shoes can compare to the bare feet of us primitives? Let me tell you the truth, that's not necessarily true! Just look at the soles of my feet! Hmm, I need to find something to demonstrate for you, then you'll understand how sturdy our primitive feet really are!" Ha Gang finished speaking and turned to walk towards a jujube tree behind him. He walked up to the jujube tree, raised his leg, and kicked the part with the most thorns. He did this frantically until not a single thorn was left on the jujube tree!

Xu Que and Hou stared blankly for a moment, then asked, "Let me check if your foot is injured?"

Ha Gang laughed and lifted his foot up for Xu Que and Hou to see.

Xu Que looked at the hound, his expression incredulous: "My god! It's not injured at all! The soles of its feet are amazing! It's like it's wearing iron shoes! After stepping on so many spikes, the skin on the soles of its feet hasn't changed at all! I'm truly impressed!"

"We're both primitive people, can you do that?" Xu Que asked, turning his head to look at the person leaning against him.

He glared at Xu Que and roared, "How could I possibly do that! My feet are about the same size as your face. You try it with your own face and see if you can strip all the thorns off that jujube tree over there! Hahaha!"

"So don't underestimate the skin on the soles of primitive people's feet! The soles of those dark-skinned outsiders' feet should be similar to mine! It's even possible that the keratin on the soles of their feet is thicker than mine! Do you think they're afraid of those sharp stones or spikes that hurt their feet?" Ha Gang continued shouting to Xu Que.

Xu nodded in agreement: "In that case, it seems we need to search every corner carefully."

“There isn’t a single tall tree here! They’re all about the same height! If there’s even one tree that’s significantly taller than the others, I’ll climb to the top and look into the distance! That way, I can roughly pinpoint the location of the dark-skinned outsiders! Once I find their headquarters, I can wipe them out without leaving a single one alive! Eliminate the threat their tribe poses to our Black Deer tribe!” Hagang said as he searched the primeval forest for a tree that was significantly taller than the others.

Ha Gang's words gave Xu Que a wake-up call!

“Hagang! I have a solution! I can just floor the throttle of my Thunder Shield·Lightning in neutral and take off like a helicopter! I’ll fly up to a certain height from here and show you the approximate location of those dark-skinned foreigners!” Xu Que said to Hagang.

"Sure! Then hurry up and take a look! It's too difficult for us to find it like this! I feel like we might not find it even after a year!" Ha Gang looked on with anticipation, waiting for Xu Que to fly up to a high place on his motorcycle to observe the situation.

Hou was skeptical of Xu Que's statement. Her eyes widened: "Is that just bragging? Thunder Shield Flying Lightning can ascend without sprinting? No way! If it's really possible, that's amazing! I really want to see it! Hurry up!"

Xu Que lifted his leg and straddled the Thunder Shield Flying Lightning, ignited it, and as the throttle increased, the sound grew louder and louder. Its whole body flashed with blue light, and it slowly rose up with Xu Que on its back.

"My god! They can really get up! That's amazing! Brother Xu Que, hurry up and see where they are, where they're hiding!"
