Chapter 50: Utter Destruction

Ye Xi was taken aback: "Wu, how do you feel?"

Wu's face was very bad, revealing a blue gray, he waved his hand, and said in a weak voice, "It's okay." After sitting for a while, Wu tried to stand up again with his bone staff.

Ye Xi hurriedly went up to support him.

Wu slowly stood up under Ye Xi's support, and thanked Ye Xi after standing firmly, his peaceful appearance seemed to be just an ordinary kind old man.

Ye Xi hugged Wu, feeling that Wu's arm under the palm of his hand was amazingly thin.

Wu slowly turned around with a bone staff, wanting to go deeper into the cave, but Ye Xi was supporting him step by step.

Wu said slowly: "No need, good boy, go out, go bask in the sun." ”

Ye Xi wanted to say that he didn't want to bask in the sun, but seeing Wu's face was very insistent, he had to put down his arm.

Wu hunched over and walked slowly and slowly into the depths of the cave alone.

Ye Xi was worried that Wu Hui would fall halfway, so he followed Wu from a distance, and saw Wu Ping'an climb onto the stone platform and sit cross-legged before leaving.

Ye Xi walked out of the cave.

The sun was shining, and his eyes were filled with tears.

After the insect infestation, the land was devastated.

The ground was littered with bug slime and droppings, and the remains of creatures that hadn't had time to escape.

The trees in the jungle were ravaged like a tornado, and many of the trees that were not strong enough were skewed by the insect, and the leaves and bark were not spared, and they were mottled and eaten.

The jungle was extremely quiet, there was not a single birdsong or insect chirping, and there was a strange smell wafting through the air, which was the smell of insect secretions.

Ye Xi stood in the open space and looked around, only to feel that everything in front of him was so strange that it made him feel like a world away.

He glanced back at Xiao Tu Shan, and was extremely happy in his heart.

Fortunately, fortunately, they have a cave, and this small Tu Mountain protects the people of Tu Mountain like a guardian spirit, and if it were not for its protection, they would have all died under the impact of this scale of insect tide.

In the prehistoric continent where dangerous creatures are infested, humanity's greatest treasure is probably a fortified cave.

Suddenly there was a cramping pain in my stomach.

I didn't eat for three days, and after the crisis passed, extreme hunger and colds broke out.

In front of the cave were ordinary people who were just as hungry as he was, looking for food.

All the warriors were extremely tired from not closing their eyes for three days and three nights, and after removing the boulder and looking out of the cave and feeling that it was not dangerous, they all went back to the cave to sleep.

Only the chief, whose eyes were bloodshot, insisted on trying to settle the clansmen, but was persuaded by Ye Xi to go back.

Ye Xi looked at the devastated jungle and felt as if there was a fire burning in his stomach.

It's unlikely that there will be food after the insect tide, but you still have to look for it, and there is no food in the tribe now.

His body was a little weak because of hunger, but his strong will still drove him to run, and his eyes searched the jungle like a searchlight, sparing every corner.

In addition to the bones of animals, there is not even a single rabbit to be found in the jungle!

After the insect tide, the creatures of this jungle seemed to be extinct, and even in the area of the fruit grove, there was not even a single white fruit left!

Grunt!

The empty stomach screamed in protest, followed by a familiar colic, and Ye Xi pressed his stomach to try to relieve the stomach pain.

Looking at the trunk of the tree that had been gnawed off the bark to reveal the white core, Ye Xi thought tragically, should he gnaw the bark.

Ye Xi walked towards the tribe in frustration, and when he came to the trap, Ye Xi was stunned.

............

In the clearing of the tribe, the tribesmen who went into the jungle in search of food returned one after another, but no one found any food, and they pressed their hungry stomachs uncomfortably, and hung their heads.

Someone began to dig up the bark, removing the rough part of the tree and stuffing the slightly tender bark inside into the mouth.

The rest of the tribesmen hesitated for a while, but finally they were defeated by their hunger, and began to peel the bark of the trees, while some squatted down to pull weeds in the grass and chew the roots to eat.

When they saw Ye Xi slowly walking this way, they were all stunned.

Because Ye Xi actually dragged a huge insect corpse back.

The pheasant, who was eating grass roots, first glanced at the insect corpse in disgust, and then asked Ye Xi strangely: "Ye Xi, why did you bring this thing back?"

It was this thing that had left them with nothing to eat now, and they were almost dead, and she was very angry when she saw it now.

Ye Xi said helplessly: "I searched all over the forest, there is no food left, only this thing, I will bring it back to see if I can eat it." ”

The clansmen gathered around with the bark in their hands and gnawed on it, looking at the extremely ugly insect corpse on the ground and wondering, "Can this thing be eaten?"

The corpse was ugly, the size of a rhinoceros, covered with black carapace, and its stomach was pierced by a wooden spike in a trap, and black blood was flowing, and it looked so disgusting that it was impossible to associate the word food with it.

"Maybe, we have to try. ”

After that, Ye Xi borrowed a bone knife, pried open its carapace along the back of the insect corpse, and then dissected it along the lines.

When the piece of meat behind the carapace was dissected, Ye Xi's eyes lit up, and he was pleasantly surprised to find that the meat on its back was snow-white, looking like fish, as if it could be eaten.

The body fluids of this insect are not poisonous, and it is very likely that it can be eaten, and Ye Xi doesn't care that it has not been roasted with fire, so he slice it down and send it to his mouth.

"Don't eat it!"

The surrounding clansmen who were eating the bark and joining in the fun saw that Ye Xi was not joking, but really sent the insect meat to his mouth, and they all stopped it.

If this insect meat is poisonous, how can it be eaten so casually!

"I'll eat first!" a voice sounded beside him.

Ye Xi turned his head and saw that it was a horn. The big man who crossed over by himself on the first day and almost bled him.

Jiao's face was very serious: "In case it's poisonous, I'll eat it first!"

Ye Xi looked at the snow-white and tender insect meat, and felt even more hungry with a twitch in his stomach, he couldn't wait to think of something to fill his hungry stomach, and he was nine percent sure that this insect meat could be eaten......

But looking up at the persistent gaze of the clansmen, he still compromised.

Horn took the worm meat, closed his eyes and swallowed it as if he had eaten poison.

The crowd of onlookers let out a lot of hissing inhalations as the horn swallowed.

Most people are not as big as Ye Xi, and they don't have the slightest psychological barrier to eating insect meat, and the vast majority of people would rather gnaw on the bark than eat this, and they swallowed it without saying a word, feeling admired and disgusted.

After eating the worm meat, the horn first felt sick to the worm meat psychologically and retched.

After waiting for a while, I found that my body didn't seem to have anything unusual, but my stomach was not so uncomfortable because of the filling of food.

Ye Xi rubbed his stomach and said, "I can eat, right?" He was really hungry.

Jiao touched his stomach, feeling that it was indeed not uncomfortable, but Ye Xi was too important to the tribe, and he didn't want Ye Xi to make any mistakes, so he hesitated and said cautiously: "Wait a little longer, what if the toxicity will work later?"

"Let's eat some bark first?" The clansmen were afraid that Ye Xi would be hungry, so they stuffed the bark in their hands to him and persuaded: "It tastes good!"

Ye Xi who was stuffed with a hand of bark: "......"
