Samira walked along the river, the dense trees almost hanging into the river, a low-lying plain with a very slow flow.

A few older children stood barefoot on the branches of the trees stretched out by the river, holding long-handled harpoons tied with daggers and sticks, and waited in the shade of the trees for the fish in the river to swim over and eat the frog's legs hanging in the river.

The boy slammed his harpoon into the river, making a 'thump' on the water.

"Yards, let it run again......"

The boy cursed.

Then he pulled the harpoon out of the river and crouched on the branch again, waiting for the fish to come up.

He also had a fish basket woven of wicker hanging from his waist, and judging by the heavy weight of the basket, there should have been fish in it.

Standing by the river, Samira said to the boy, "You can't catch many fish like this, not only are you not accurate enough, but your speed is not enough, and the range of movement is too great, and the moment you move, the reflection on the water has betrayed you. ”

The boy furrowed his brow and turned to look at Samira.

Seeing that it was a strange woman who was not a few years older than him, seeing that she was wearing delicate black leather armor with magnificent and strange patterns on it, and carrying a sharp bow behind her, he immediately put away his contempt.

But still a little unconvinced, said:

"You said it lightly, do you want to try it?"

The long leather boots were firmly stepped on the horizontal branch that plunged into the river, and Samira stood beside the boy with great balance, looked down at the swimming fish in the river again, took out the heavenly bow on his back, shook it at the boy, and said:

"I use this ......"

The boy looked at Samira's sharp bow with envy and said, "Compared to your longbow, my one looks like a toy." ”

"It's a toy, so why do you say it's like a toy?" Samira looked at the boy with a smirk.

The boy pursed his lips in anger, and did not care about Sami Mira anymore, drew an arrow, and looked at the river.

"You're a Ranger?"

The boy was once again attracted by the dagger with the golden ornament on her thigh, and couldn't help but ask.

"Sort of!" Samira didn't say she was a two-turn hawkeye.

Suddenly two splashes appeared on the surface of the slowly flowing river, and these two splashes appeared almost at the same time, and the shiny scales seemed to be clearly visible in the splash.

Samira shot the arrow in her hand almost at the same time, it was one arrow, but it was two out of her hand.

The arrows split in the middle of the way, hitting two sprays a little lower.

The arrows entered the water, bringing up a string of white bubbles, and after a while, the wooden pole arrows surfaced with two small swimming fish, and slowly moved down the river towards them.

The boy hurriedly picked up the fish in the river with the long handle in his hand, and asked with a look of surprise:

"You're so cool, how did you do that?"

Samira took the wet arrow, untied the fish from it, threw it into the boy's basket, and swam the arrow in the river before putting it back into the quiver.

"You've asked me a question just now, now it's time for me to ask you." Samira said.

The boy couldn't wait to say, "Then you ask!" ”

"How long have you been living here?"

Samira asked the boy with a smile.

"It's been months......" the boy said after a moment's thought.

Samira said finely and then said:

"It's archery, you need to practice it a lot to be so accurate, first of all, you have to be very steady, and secondly...... Let me see...... You don't have enough strength in your arms, and you have to practice your eyesight, not just staring at the fish in the water, but also watching the birds in the sky......"

Samira asked, "Where did you come from?" ”

Without thinking, the boy replied, "The town of Longhilde is just south of this jungle." ”

"How can I improve my arm strength?" The boy asked earnestly.

"Stretch your arms flat like this, and then hang two rocks at your wrists that you can hold onto, and do that for an hour every morning, and soon your arms will be strong......"

While Samira and the boys were exchanging new tips on archery, the other boys who were fishing by the river joined in......

……

Surdak walked to the edge of the camp, where a group of women were dealing with a mess of bushes in the woods, cut them down and cleared a glade.

Several men climbed up the high canopy with hatchets and cut off some of the branches and leaves at the top of the canopy.

These trees are so dense that if you don't cut them down a bit, you won't get the light through.

When there was enough light, the men brought in some logs and used them as the main support frame to build a treehouse.

They skillfully erected three pillars, formed a square platform with the tree, laid a thick layer of planks on top of the platform, and then continued to use some planks to form a wall.

They are very skilled in building this kind of wooden house, which has three rooms, a terrace with a view of the distance, and a spiral staircase is also built on the trunk of a large tree, which is strong and beautiful.

When the roof is covered, the trunk of the tree is also avoided to prevent the tree house from leaking......

The men continued to build their huts here, and Surdak stood in the glade below.

He roughly counted the number of wooden houses in the camp, there are about two hundred such wooden houses in this camp, and at the construction speed of these men, two wooden houses can be built in a day, and the accommodation problem of everyone has basically been solved.

"Why are you building these treehouses?" Surdak looked back and asked the man standing on the platform hammering nails into the planks with a claw hammer.

The man raised his short eyebrows, his eyes were aimed at the woman who was cleaning the bushes over there, and with a lewd expression that everyone understood, he smiled at Surdak and said, "Of course the house is not enough to live in, and no one wants to be crammed into one room." ”

The partner who worked with him on the other side also said at this time:

"And there's going to be more people living here."

Surdak continued, "Mind if I come up and have a look?" ”

The man spread his hands and said very casually, "Whatever, if we can bring the following two logs, we will be grateful......

Surdak lowered his head, slung two pieces of wood on his shoulders, and walked down the spiral ladder to the platform.

The man took the two pieces of wood from his hand, looked at Surdak in decent leather armor, and asked Surdak, "It seems that I have never seen you before......"

"Oh, I'm from outside with Edgar." Surdak explained.

After saying that, he stood on the platform of the treehouse and looked around, this kind of treehouse really has an atmosphere that is very close to nature.

Smelling the aroma of the oil emitted by the trees, it seems that the whole person is much more relaxed.

"Are there regular wars here?" Surdak asked the man.

"Not here, we usually have to drill out of that mountain to see those lord armies." The man pointed to the other end of the plank and asked Surdak to help him up.

Surdak colorfully nailed the plank to the trunk of the tree and said, "Life seems to be good here......

Seeing that Surdak didn't hate it at all, and knew how to help, the man chatted with him: "It's just that the camp here is relatively primitive, and the materials for daily creatures are relatively scarce, but it will slowly get better in the future......"

……

A group of rebel fighters made their way down the river, hunting everything they encountered in the jungle along the way.

The birds that stop in the treetops, the eggs in the nests, the badgers and hedgehogs that hide in the bushes, the snakes that hang on the branches of the vines, everything that can be seen is caught, and everything that can be bled is drained of the blood of the body and hung around the waist......

The rebel pair, numbering about two hundred men, were hunting in the woodlands and feeding the entire camp.

It is precisely because of their presence that the area within a kilometer of this woodland is at most a little more mosquitoed, and it is difficult to see even a grouse.

In order to hunt more prey, they had to go farther away.

Sometimes I go out in the morning and come back the next evening.

Thea soaked in the river upstream, dived her head into the water so as not to be seen, and waited for the hunters to move away from the river before resurfacing.

With such a river deep and wide enough, she can swim in the water a few times and stretch her body.

On the other side of the river there was a low bush full of berries, and a group of women squatted in the bush with baskets to pick the berries that were already red.

A large tree that has been deliberately cut down across the river, the branches on the canopy have been cleared, the trunk is covered with a layer of wooden planks, there are handrails on both sides, and there is a ladder more than a meter high on the side of the root.

When Thea had swam enough in the river, she found a hidden place and went ashore, took on a human form, put on a black robe, her long wet hair was scattered behind her, and she stepped barefoot on the slightly damp humus soil, and the dead branches on the ground were a little prickly.

However, she didn't wear shoes, these boots were wet, and when she wore them on her feet, she would make a 'poof' sound, which would make people feel a little uncomfortable when they listened to them.

With one hand holding the hem of her robe, she walked barefoot into the women who stepped on the berries, her steps graceful as that of a princess.

Her eyes were so clear that even women could hardly be hostile to her.

Squatting next to the bushes, she watched with a smile as a young girl picked berries, followed her movements, picked a few berries from the branches and held them in the palm of her hand, and asked in a soft voice:

"Are all these fruits edible?"

When the young girl saw Thea, her eyes froze slightly, and then she generously raised the basket in her hand and invited Thea:

"yes, would you like to have a try?"

"Okay!"

Thea took a berry from the basket and threw it into her mouth, and when she bit it, the sour juice overflowed, she closed her eyes and swallowed it into her stomach.

As a member of the Canahai tribe, Thea couldn't accept such a sour fruit, in contrast, she would rather find something to eat in the river, such as aquatic plants, river mussels, snails, etc., and when she fled, she was hungry and ate them.

"Can you eat all the fruit you have picked so much?" Thea couldn't help but ask when she saw that the baskets in the hands of all the women were filled with these sour berries.

"Of course, there are so many people in the camp, besides...... Even if you can't finish it, you can cook it into jam. The young girl expertly threw a berry into her mouth and chewed it with relish.

She then asked Thea, "You're new from outside?" ”

Thea nodded, helping her pick the berries together, but then she didn't dare to put them in her mouth again.

The young girl looked at her long wet hair, which was as green as Seaweed, and said with envy:

"Your hair is so beautiful, I've never seen hair of this color."

Then she handed out the invitation very warmly: "Do you want to join our picking team?" ”

Thea hesitated for a moment, but said, "I'm not sure if I want to stay here yet, but I can try to learn how to collect these wild fruits now......"

The young girl felt very close to Thea, as if she had endless words.

"What's your name?"

"Thea."

"You just came from outside?"

"Well, from the town of Takkale, they fought with the lord army in the town, many houses in the town were destroyed by the lord army's catapults, and a group of lord army wanted to trouble us, so we ran out with Edgar." Thea said casually.

"Why are those lords like this every time......" Hearing Thea say this, the young girl's eyes suddenly turned red, as if she remembered something sad.

Seeing the young girl's agitated mood, Thea carefully put away the Siren's singing.

Without this temptation, the girl's mood calmed down, and she still wondered how she could become friends with such a beautiful girl.

The women of the camp usually gather berries and wild fruits in the surrounding woodland, and they also grow some wheat in a clearing, but there is only so much land in the jungle that can be cultivated into fields that this part of the wheat field alone cannot feed everyone.

It was busy until dusk that Thea and the women returned to the camp......

……

Surdak was returned to camp by Edgar at noon.

There were still so many wounded in the camp that Edgar wanted Surdak to help them heal them a little more.

Although it was only a tentative request, he didn't expect Surdak to readily agree, and Edgar suddenly felt that Surdak, the paladin's character, was really good......

Looking at the injuries of these wounded fighters, there is no need to be as tiring as healing.

Despite this, Surdak made some preparations in advance, returned to his hut to start the sacrificial ceremony, and blessed himself with the 'True Eye'.

In this way, at the very least, it is necessary to use the divine breath to enter the other party's body, and you can see the injury at a glance.

When the other rebel soldiers saw Surdak treating the wounded so dedicatedly, they realized that since this knight had mastered the art of holy light, Surdak instantly became famous in the camp.

You must know that on the battlefield, everyone will inevitably get hurt.

If there is a knight with Holy Light in the camp at any time, the combat power of the entire team will be significantly improved.

As Surdak walked out of the wounded barracks quarters, he immediately felt that he was being pointed at, and almost everyone knew that he was a knight who knew how to use holy light.
