At this time, Du Yuqi estimated that in just six or seven hours, they had traveled at least 300 kilometers downstream, which was an astonishing speed. The jungle here was not as humid as the tropical rainforest, but there were towering trees everywhere, blocking out the sun, making it difficult for sunlight to penetrate. Therefore, the vegetation at the bottom of the jungle was not lush, so the light was dim and it looked quite gloomy.

After Jet reached the shore and came into the woods, he was like a fish in water. He looked as casual as if he had returned to his own home. He waved to Du Yuqi to go forward, and from time to time he picked a fungus from the tree next to him and ate it. He even broke off a branch and inserted it into a hole in the ground, then pulled it out after a while and put it in his mouth, looking like he was eating it very happily.

At first, Du Yuqi thought that Jet liked to eat twigs. But when he looked carefully, he found that the twigs were covered with red ants. They were so dense that a timid person would be scared away. However, Jet quickly found an ant hole, broke off a branch and inserted it in. After the hole was full of ants, he pulled it out and handed it to Du Yuqi for him to eat.

Fortunately, Du Yuqi was very brave. Seeing Jet eating with relish, he simply closed his eyes and put the branch into his mouth. Immediately, he felt as if his mouth was full of big ants crawling.

However, after Du Yuqi chewed it hard, a stream of juice spurted out from the ant's body. It was a little sour at first, and then it had a slightly sweet taste. It was crunchy and quite delicious, and the taste was much more acceptable than Du Yuqi had imagined.

Seeing Du Yuqi happily eating ants, Jet also laughed and patted his shoulder. They had consumed a lot of energy after drifting all the way here, and both of them felt hungry. Jet indicated that he wanted to go find food, but Du Yuqi stopped him. After rummaging in the dimensional ring for a while, he found two buckets of pickled cabbage beef noodles and some military compressed biscuits.

At this time, Du Yuqi asked Jet to find some clean water, and then took out the outdoor water boiling kit: alcohol lamp and small aluminum pot to start heating. As a result, not long after, Jet, the muscular man, came over with a bunch of vines.

When Du Yuqi was wondering, he saw him pull out a vine, then break it, and saw clear water flowing out from the broken end. It turned out that he collected a plant called water vine. In such a jungle, wild water sources may hide deadly germs and parasites, but plants like water vine can provide clean water that can be safely drunk.

After a while, an aroma wafted out of the forest, which must be very familiar to the people on Earth, but was definitely unfamiliar to the people on the continent of Arad. The two began to slurp their instant noodles, and then soaked the general's compressed biscuits in the noodle soup and ate them. Jet must have been very happy while eating, and he even took Du Yuqi's noodle soup and drank it, and also collected the plastic fork.

After they had eaten, the two continued to move forward. Although it was getting dark and it was quite dangerous to walk in the dark forest, Jet was an indigenous resident here and the Creek tribe he belonged to was in a completely dominant position in this area, so they started to travel overnight.

While on the road, Du Yuqi even heard strange "rustling" sounds coming from both sides of the road, as well as the sound of branches being broken, but if Jet roared loudly, or if he held the scimitar behind him and hit it in the scabbard, these strange noises would immediately disappear.

Jet told Du Yuqi that this area was the activity area of ​​the Dark Curse Cat Demons. These guys were natural predators in the dark and were very difficult to deal with.

However, the Creek tribe did not only make a living by hunting, but also opened up fields and planted a large amount of food crops called "couscous". This plant is also called chaos flower. Its enlarged rhizomes that grow underground are used as a staple food (similar to radish). Du Yuqi has seen this thing and found it to be somewhat similar to cassava on Earth, and the way of eating it is also similar. It is estimated that they are related plants.

The Creek tribe only needs the mature rhizomes of "couscous", while the cat demons like the fruits of this thing. In this case of plant/food as the bond, the two sides have a wonderful symbiotic relationship. Therefore, the cat demons can suppress their hunting desires and live in harmony with the goblin tribe.

It is said that "Couscous" is a unique product of the Creek tribe. It was cultivated from seeds found by an elder in a relic several decades ago. It is unique and cannot be found anywhere else.

After hearing what he said, Du Yuqi also paid attention and found that indeed, he could see a faint black shadow running and jumping in the jungle at an amazing speed, and could also vaguely hear strange murmurs. It was also thanks to Jet that he revealed the whole story, otherwise if a timid person came, even if he was not attacked by these monsters, he would be scared to death on the spot.

The two of them trekked through the dense forest for three or four hours, during which time they also climbed over mountains and crossed rivers, and walked a considerable distance in a straight line by jumping over waterfalls and climbing vines to cross rivers. Finally, a stretch of continuous fire appeared in front of them, which seemed to cover the entire sunny side of the mountain. It was very magnificent just by looking at its momentum. There was also a road on the ground, with crudely made totem poles on both sides of the road.

To put it simply, this totem pole is actually a wooden stick with a skull on it. Of course, the stick has various special patterns on it, which makes it very recognizable. Once you enter the range of the totem pole, it is the gathering place of Jet's tribe, the Creek tribe, and its name is "Kuwa City", which means "City of Proliferation" in translation.

After getting closer to here, Du Yuqi realized that Jet's status in the tribe was indeed very high. When approaching the city of Kuva, he had encountered many patrol teams one after another. These patrol teams were originally quite hostile to Du Yuqi, but after seeing Jet, they all took off their weapons and saluted, and some even half-knelt on the ground. At the same time, their hostility towards Du Yuqi disappeared.
