Chapter 146: Discovery

As far as the eye can see, there is a forest of trees all around, lush and extraordinary. At the foot of the towering mountain range is the place where delicious fruit trees grow.

This is a very barren land, and if you grab a handful of dirt in your hand, you will find that the soil contains a lot of gravel, and the distance between the fruit trees is very large, obviously exceeding the normal distance.

And between the wide intervals between the trees, there were no other plants that grew luxuriantly, but only some weeds with great vitality, which were strong in the land, which was in stark contrast to the gratifying growth of those delicious fruit trees.

Su Ming carefully observed this land, felt that it was very abnormal, very abnormal, took out the black iron long knife in his hand, and dug a soil pit directly under his feet, wanting to see the situation underground.

But as he dug and the pit deepened, his surprise and curiosity about the land became heavier. Because, the further you dig into the ground, the more gravel there is in the soil, until eventually, there is no dirt left, all gravel, and broken rock.

But what surprised him even more was that among the rocks and gravel, he could still find a large number of roots of delicious fruit trees, intertwined like nets in those tiny voids.

In order to understand the most real situation, Su Ming chose a fruit tree and dug down along one of its taproots, dirt, gravel, rock, rock. In the end, Su Ming excavated the roots of the tree and extended to the deepest part of the soil, learned about the real underground living environment of the delicious fruit tree, and also discovered the real reason for the failure of the delicious fruit transplant.

After learning the truth of the matter, Su Ming suppressed his excitement, looked as usual, and backfilled all the excavated soil.

"Let's go, we've seen this delicious fruit tree, we'll go, it's not early in the day. After trampling the excavated soil, Su Ming was ready to return to the camp with the others for a final discussion on the details of the three clans' troops.

"Okay, then we'll go straight back. The tooth piece saw that Su Ming had excavated and completed the backfill, which could be regarded as completing the investigation of the delicious fruit tree, and the result was just as he expected, and he did not find anything special.

At night, Hei Er and Su Ming were in a tent, discussing today's daytime affairs, others may not see anything, but as a companion who grew up with Su Ming, he knows many of Su Ming's habits very well, and today Su Ming seems to outsiders to be a very ordinary reaction, but in Hei Er's eyes, he sees a significant difference.

"Su Ming, what did you find in the delicious fruit grove today, and you didn't take the delicious fruit tree away directly?"

"Hei Er, you have to be prepared for this matter, it is very important, and you must not leak the rumors. Make arrangements so that there can be no one within fifty steps of the tent. After hearing Hei Er's inquiry, Su Ming also said with a serious face, and there was even some trilling in his voice.

"What the hell is so important, okay, you wait for me for a while, and then I'll arrange it. Hei Er also felt that the matter was very important, otherwise, Su Ming would not have issued such a name, this was the first time. Moreover, the tent was surrounded by warriors from their own tribe, and this time they couldn't even hear it, not because they were afraid that they would betray, but because they didn't leak their mouths, which shows the secrecy and importance of this matter.

Black-ear went out, and soon there was the sound of Black-ear's command and the footsteps of the warrior leaving quickly. After a while, Hei Er went in and out of the tent again, and came to sit next to Su Ming.

Su Ming once again warned him to keep his calm mind and not make a fuss when he heard the news. After Hei Er repeatedly assured that he would not, Su Ming leaned into his ear and whispered a word.

"What! Is this true?!" After listening to the news that Su Ming gave him, although Hei Er had repeatedly assured him and made full preparations just now, he still couldn't help but shout loudly when he got the news.

Although after shouting, he reacted instantly, and immediately covered his mouth to prevent himself from making a sound that he shouldn't have, but the shock and excitement in his eyes couldn't be concealed, his eyes looked straight at Su Ming, and he was so excited that he didn't want to ask if he wanted to ask, and his cheeks were red.

Su Ming nodded firmly without a trace of doubt, and after getting Su Ming's affirmative answer, Hei Er couldn't express his excitement, so he could only stride his feet silently, releasing and relieving his excitement.

The soldiers outside didn't know what Su Ming said inside the tent, but from the abrupt shouts of Hei'er and the sound of the load-bearing stomping of the feet, they could also guess that there must be something very important to negotiate.

The soldiers outside the tent were full of curiosity, but none of them dared to eavesdrop outside the tent without permission. Instead, he was fifty paces away, holding the weapon in his hand, vigilantly observing the surroundings, and carefully guarding the tent to prevent anyone from breaking in.

For the next day, everyone could see Hei Er's smiling face, not only smiling when there were people, but even when there was no one, he was secretly smirking alone.

After Su Ming saw his situation, he couldn't help but ask himself repeatedly in his heart, telling him the news if he had done something wrong.

But fortunately, on the second day, the black ear returned to normal, which also made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

"Su Ming, today's negotiation is really smooth, not only does this mountain pass belong to us like this, but also the land in this area, as well as the delicious fruit trees, now it also belongs to our Fire Tribe. Hei Er and Su Ming came from the camp of the Tooth tribe not far away, and were walking back to their camp, and Hei Er expressed his opinion on the outcome of today's negotiations.

"yes, it went very well. But I'm still a little worried, and you've heard that the wild beasts will attack in the spring and summer, and it will be a tough battle when the time comes, and it will last for three months. Recalling the news he learned at the negotiation meeting today, Su Ming was also very worried, after all, the population of the Fire Tribe was too small to withstand consumption.

"Su Ming, don't worry, now that we go back, we can immediately build those super giant crossbows, which are specially used to hunt large savage beasts, I don't believe it, they can still break our defenses." "Hei Er is full of confidence in the upcoming attack, which is a trust in the strength of his tribe.

"Moreover, we have to defend again, whether it is to defend against the large-scale invasion of our territory by the Savage Behemoths, or for its sake. The black ears with a confident face also became serious when he said this.

"Yes, we have a reason to keep it. Su Ming also put aside his worries, and his eyes became firm.
