Chapter 212 The whole forest is ours

"roar!"

Under the guidance of the divine vine, the first big tree not only grew eyes, but also soon grew a mouth and let out a dull roar.

Then, there was the second big tree, the third big tree...

In the forest south of the Teng tribe, hundreds of big trees were transformed into tree people.

These tree people opened their eyes one after another and waved their thick branches excitedly, making a rustling sound.

Several tree people also 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 grow, and as soon as they are able to move, they quickly move to another place to take root.

On the sentry post, Jiang Xuan and the warriors of the Teng tribe watched this scene, and everyone's jaw dropped.

Jiang Xuan had already prepared to fight first and run away if he couldn't win, but now it seems that this is no longer necessary.

“Kill…”

The warriors of the Black Snake Tribe have already rushed over. The totem patterns on their faces are emitting a faint black light, and they are 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 alive. Human faces grew on the trunks of these big trees, and then they growled at the warriors of the Black Snake Tribe.

"roar!"

“Pah pah pah…”

A tree man waved a thick branch and slapped the warriors of the Black Snake Tribe, knocking many of them away and breaking their bones.

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 encountered the same problem. Rows of huge trees began to move and suddenly attacked them, making these Black Snake tribe warriors howl in pain.

The power of the tree people is really terrifying, and they are very large. When a branch of their tree sweeps across a large area, there is nowhere to hide.

More than a hundred tree men attacked at the same time, and more than six thousand warriors of the Black Snake Tribe were defeated and had to crawl back.

What’s worse is that there are more than just 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 people, they also possessed some spirituality and ability to move.

A three-color warrior from the Black Snake Tribe was relying on his swiftness to dodge the attacks of the tree men in the forest. When he landed on the ground, his feet were suddenly entangled by an ordinary vine.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't care about such ordinary vines at all and could break them with brute force.

But now, after he was entangled, the tree man's terrible branches came directly towards him.

"ah!"

The tricolor warrior let out a scream, and was beaten by the tree man's branches until his bones were broken and his body was covered with wounds.

The tree man pulled the thick roots out of the ground and moved over the tricolor warrior.

By the time the tree man had passed, the tricolor warrior was dead beyond belief, with even his spear broken into several pieces.

“Too fierce!”

On the sentry post, Jiang Xuan exclaimed in amazement as he watched hundreds of tree men chasing more than six thousand Black Snake Tribe warriors.

Chishao smiled and said, "With the Teng Shen here, the entire forest is ours. It won't be easy for people from other tribes to attack us."

"The whole forest is ours!"

Jiang Xuan was amazed again. For the first time, he truly felt the horror of the divine vine.

As long as it is in the forest, it can get all the plants to help fight the battle.

But Jiang Xuan thought of another question: "Why didn't the Vine God create some tree people before?"

Chishao replied: "Maybe it's because it consumes too much divine energy."

Jiang Xuan nodded. It was indeed not easy to turn a big tree into a tree man. If it was like that big black snake, even a great god could not do it.

Jiang Xuan guessed that it was because the divine vine absorbed the soul and power of the bird of prey god, and its strength increased significantly, and it even possessed the strength of a great god, so it was able to transform hundreds of large trees into tree men.

If the power of the divine vine continues to grow, it may be able to transform all the trees in the forest into tree people in the future.

When Jiang Xuan thought that all the big trees around the Hou Teng tribe would be tree people, his heart suddenly surged with emotion.

What a shocking scene that would 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 will not stop us, right?"

The tribe now mainly relies on burning firewood, and various tools and utensils can only be made by logging.

If these tree people stop the Vine Tribe from cutting down trees, won’t that be the end of them?

"This... I have to ask Fujishen to know."

Chishao closed his eyes, communicated with Shen Teng for a moment, and then opened his eyes again.

"How is it?" Jiang Xuan looked at her.

"The Fuji God asked me to ask you, why are there so many people in each tribe, but they often fight with each other?"

"This... is for survival, of course."

Chishao said: "Humans live to survive, and so do plants. The struggle for survival among plants is even more intense."

Jiang Xuan suddenly had an idea: "In other words, if we cut down some trees, it will be more conducive to the growth of other big trees?"

Chishao nodded and said, "That's what Teng Shen meant."

"Then I feel relieved."

Jiang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. It would be a real hassle if they were not allowed to cut down trees in the future.

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 people 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 a panic, leaving behind a pile of corpses.

Those tree people did not chase after the people. After driving them away, some of them returned to where they had grown before, while others found a new place to take root.

As long as they don't open their eyes and don't move around, they are almost no different from ordinary trees.

“Hiss…”

Above the forest not far away, 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 bring about another thunder disaster.

It stared at the sacred vine for a long time, then swung its tail and swam in another direction.

On the ground, the witch of the Black Snake Tribe received instructions from the Snake God. He said with a very grim expression: "Oracle, bypass this tribe and keep moving forward!"

“Crack!”

The leader of the Black Snake Tribe punched the tree trunk next to him hard, 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 swam and carried the leader of the Black Snake Tribe towards the direction of the Snake God.

The witch of the Black Snake Tribe also left riding a big black snake.

More than 10,000 members of the Black Snake Tribe followed one after another. Everyone felt very aggrieved, but there was nothing they could do.

This was the first time they encountered a tribe that they could not defeat, and it seemed to be only a medium-sized tribe.

Soon, everyone in the Black Snake Tribe left.

Jiang Xuan rode Tangyuan and followed from a distance, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that the Black Snake Tribe had left and had not returned to plot anything.

The crisis of the Teng tribe was finally resolved without any casualties.

On the other side, the Frog Tribe, who had been waiting by the river bank, finally let go of their worries.

"Finally left."

Huo Meng and Wu looked at each other, both breathed a sigh of relief and sat down.

When the Black Snake Tribe came, they were really scared.

Hatred aside, the Frog Tribe did not dare to fight the Black Snake Tribe. They were even ready to escape when they saw the Black Snake Tribe.

The Frog Tribe now has many giant frogs again. If the Black Tribe attacks this side, they will immediately ride the giant frogs across the river and run away first.

Fortunately, the worst did not happen, and they are still a good subordinate tribe of the Vine Tribe.

"Wu, what should we do now?"

The witch thought about it carefully and said, "Take all the warriors of the tribe and go outside the vine wall. Act as if you are ready to fight to the death with the Black Snake Tribe. We must not let the Vine Tribe discover our attempt to escape."

"good!"

Huo Meng immediately summoned the warriors of the Frog Tribe, put the packed things back first, then each of them picked up their weapons and entered the woods outside the vine wall.

After the crisis was resolved, 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?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Jiang Xuan looked at Huo Meng with a half-smile and said, "He has already run far away."

Huo Meng said indignantly: "What a pity! I wanted to kill a few more stinky snakes to get revenge!"

Jiang Xuan said: "Don't worry, Chief Huo Meng, there will be opportunities in the future."

Huo Meng always felt that Jiang Xuan's eyes were strange, and he felt very uncomfortable, so after expressing a few words of loyalty, Huo Meng said goodbye and left.

After Huo Meng left, Feng Cao appeared beside Jiang Xuan.

"Chief, we can't trust these people from the Frog Tribe. They clearly wanted to run away just now, but now they are deliberately pretending to be so intimidating to us."

Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "It's normal for them to want to run away. After all, the Frog Tribe now has a very small population. If they really fight with the Black Snake Tribe, the Frog Tribe might be wiped out."

After listening to Jiang Xuan's words, Feng Cao said, "Then they don't have to act like this on purpose, right?"

"You're showing your loyalty, I understand. But, you'd better place a few people in the Frog Tribe in the future."

"I can tolerate the cowardice of the Frog Tribe, but I absolutely cannot tolerate betrayal!"

"Don't worry, Chief. I'll make the arrangements right away."

The wind grass soon disappeared into the woods again.

Under her leadership, the 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 dealing with this matter, Jiang Xuan didn't care too much about it. To put it bluntly, he looked down upon the Frog Tribe's current strength.

"Uncaria, Stone Loach, you lead the hunting team to deal with the corpses left behind by the Black Snake Tribe. Take away everything that can be used and dig a few pits to bury the corpses."

"yes!"

Uncaria and Stone Eel immediately took people over to deal with the corpse.

In the past, everyone felt terrified because some people had witnessed with their own eyes the tree people showing their power.

They were afraid that the tree people would attack them when they were cleaning up the bodies.

However, their worries were apparently unnecessary.

The tree people didn't move at all. A few of them opened their eyes and looked around curiously, while the others simply didn't open their eyes.

The hunting team successfully disposed of the corpses and took away all the weapons, animal skin clothes, animal skin bags, food, medicine and other things.

For the naked bodies, they dug a few large pits and dragged the bodies there to bury them.

After the hunting team left, many tree people opened their eyes again. They pulled out their roots, swooped to the place where the bodies were buried, and scrambled to take root there.

After some chaos, some tree people occupied the places where the bodies were buried.

The tree man who failed to grab a position could only return to his original position in frustration and wait for the next opportunity.

Corpses are good nutrients for plants, and tree people like them too.

Teng tribe, Uncaria rhynchophylla’s home, night.

"Mother, why can't we go out after dark?"

Fuling sat on the doorstep, and Tiandong, who was over two years old, lay in her arms, asking various questions curiously.

At this time, the moonlight was as bright as water, and the entire tribe fell silent.

Fuling looked at Tiandong lovingly, scratched his little nose, and said, "Because it's dark, all kinds of wild beasts will come out. If you go out at night, you will be eaten by wild beasts."

"Then why hasn't Dad come back yet?"

"Because your father is a warrior in the tribe, he has to go far away to hunt, so that we can have meat to eat."

Hearing the word "hunting", Xiao Tiandong clenched his fists with a face full of longing: "When I grow up, I want to become a warrior like my father, go hunting, and eat meat!"

Fuling laughed in silence: "Okay, from now on our Tiandong will be a brave soldier and eat meat every day."

"I will!"

Xiao Tiandong was very serious and his eyes were determined.

Fuling rubbed Tiandong's little head, looked at the moon in the sky, then looked at the mysterious stone mountain at night, praying that Uncaria rhynchophylla could return safely with its prey.

Every time the tribesmen went out hunting or fighting, they would encounter various dangers, and those who stayed at home would inevitably be worried.

Because no one knows whether this will be a separation of life and death.

Precisely because of this extreme lack of security, the tribal people need faith. Faith can bring people courage, spiritual sustenance, and make them braver.

"Mother, I want to listen to hunting songs..."

"good."

Fuling cleared his throat and sang softly in a very ancient tune: "In the primeval forest, there is food everywhere."

"Brave warrior, come into the mountains to hunt."

"This is a dense forest. Be careful of wild animals."

"Sharp weapons are your helpers."

“Don’t go into deep water, don’t go to high mountains.”

…

"We are back from hunting, and everyone is eating meat."

"We are back from hunting, and everyone is eating meat."

The ancient and simple hunting song floated in the night sky as Fuling sang it repeatedly.

As the two-year-old Tiandong listened, his eyelids gradually could no longer hold up and he soon fell asleep.

Perhaps, in his dreams, he would become a brave warrior, walk into the mysterious forest, fight with all kinds of ferocious beasts, and finally return with a full load of prey.

"Fell asleep so quickly."

After Fuling sang several times, she looked down and saw that Tiandong had fallen asleep. His little face looked especially cute when he was sleeping.

Fuling couldn't help but kiss Xiao Tiandong on the forehead, then she carried him into the house and put him on the bed.

In order to prevent mosquito bites, Fuling went outside the house to pick a handful of fan grass, rubbed out the juice, and applied it on Tiandong's clothes and bedside, so that mosquitoes would not come near.

In fact, she could also dig some charcoal from the fire pit and put a handful of stinking grass on it to simmer.

However, burning stinking grass produces a lot of smoke, which is quite choking, so Poria is afraid that it will choke children.

After finishing all this, Fuling took out some cut animal skins, bronze needles and fine 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.
