Their tribe lived right behind the mountain, and when the warriors of the tribe came back from hunting, they smelled the smell of the woods, and they found someone here, and they came to take a look.

Jiang Li stepped forward and communicated with them for a long time, and those people realized that the four of them had no ill will towards them.

Knowing that they were from the Yaoshan tribe, they came out to look for food seeds.

Yao Xiaoqing stepped forward to ask what seeds their tribe had, and if there were seeds that the Yaoshan tribe did not have, she was willing to exchange them with the seeds.

After talking for a long time, the leader understood what she meant.

asked the two of them to go back and get a few seeds, and Yao Xiaoqing found that the crops grown by the tribe here were similar to them, all millet and beans......

She thought about grabbing a handful of pumpkin seeds from the bag and telling them how to plant them.

It took a long time for those people to understand, and the leader was suspicious of what Yao Xiaoqing said, and handed over the seeds to the warriors around him at will.

Seeing that they didn't care about the pumpkin seeds, Heiba gestured at them dissatisfied: "These seeds need three heads of mutton to be exchanged, and Qingwubai will give them to you, you have to plant them well." ”

After that, he went to the back basket and brought out the pumpkin to show them.

"Oh~Oh!"

A dozen or so men exclaimed in surprise, stared at the pumpkin held by Heiba for a moment with wide eyes and stupidity, and began to talk nonsense.

The leading man looked at the pumpkin and pointed to the pumpkin seed in his hand, and asked Yao Xiaoqing if such seeds grew?

Yao Xiaoqing nodded and smiled, and a group of people bowed over to a few people excitedly, and walked away with pumpkin seeds.

The four of them sat down and continued to eat, and just after eating, they began to clean up, and the leading man came over with three men carrying the bag, handed the bag to Heiba and pointed at his mouth, meaning that the contents were edible, and the four of them left after the gesture.

Heiba opened the leather bag and smelled a refreshing fruity fragrance, only to see that the bag contained a bird's egg-sized, red fruit, which made the mouth water.

He carried the bag back to the animal skin cushion, "Young witch, chief, what are you?" It smells so good! ”

Yao Xiaoqing and Jiang Li took one and looked at it for a while, and the two shook their heads together, "I haven't seen it." ”

Heiba looked at the two of them, "That person said this thing is for food!" ”

Jiang Li broke it open and took a look, and the flesh inside was pink and tender, which was different from the fruit they had seen.

"It should be edible. They must have thanked us for giving them the pumpkin. ”

He said that he took it to the ditch and washed it, and after putting it in his mouth and eating it, he felt fragrant and sweet, which quenched his thirst.

Jiang Li washed a few more and handed them to Yao Xiaoqing, "It tastes good, you can also taste it." ”

Yao Xiaoqing felt the same after eating.

The four stayed at the foot of the mountain for two days, searched all over the valley, and found no trace of the rice, and then continued on their way.

The forest in June was hot and humid, and after less than two hours of walking, I felt sticky.

After walking in the forest for more than ten days, getting drenched in two rains, and encountering two tribes, there was still no trace of rice after communication.

Yao Xiaoqing gave them some pumpkin seeds in exchange for a bag of jerky.

Two days later, the four of them went down the mountain, blocked by a big river, and stood on the bank of the river, only to see that the river was vast, the river water was crystal clear, the sun was shining on the wide river, the water was rippling, shining like broken silver, and the bottom of the river was clear.

If you look at the river, you can see the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river and the large and small fish swimming in the water.

On both sides of the river are towering trees, with thick foliage and vines hanging down on the surface of the river, blooming red and yellow...... Wildflowers, the banks of the river look like colorful barriers dotted with flowers.

Heiba picked up a stone and threw it into the river, and with a plop, there were ripples on the surface of the river. Frightened wild birds fly high into the air in unison, circling and chirping on the surface of the river, swooping down from time to time and flapping the water with their brilliant wings.

A fresh breeze blows, and the wildflowers on both sides of the river bank sway gently in the wind, as if you are in a fairy tale.

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and thought that it had been almost a month, and he hadn't even seen the shadow of the rice, and he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. She began to suspect that Rice hadn't yet appeared on this plane.

Jiang Li looked at Yao Xiaoqing who was standing on the shore, felt her frustration, put down the basket and walked over, looking at her softly.

"Xiaoqing, let's stay here for a few days, take a look around, I think there may be rice on the boundary of the adjacent waters."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Okay, let's stay here for a few days and look around." ”

Jiang Li put the baskets together, "You rest for a while, let's go cut some bushes and palm leaves, build a tree house, rest for two days and then go to the neighborhood to look for it." ”

After hearing this, Yao Xiaoqing felt that what he said also made sense, and it was not a way to just look around the world without a goal.

"Okay, I'll gather firewood and look for wormwood, and you cut down trees and build tree houses." With that, he picked up his machete and began to search for wormwood.

There are many mosquitoes in the forest and they are poisonous, and after being bitten, they instantly swelled up into a large bag. If there is no wormwood smoked, it may be bitten alive by mosquitoes.

Fortunately, there were many by the river, and after Yao Xiaoqing beat the lush weeds and vines and shrubs with a long wooden stick, he looked around vigilantly until the sound of rustling was gone, and then he raised his machete and cut a large bundle of wormwood.

Tied with vines and dragged to the place where Jiang Li was going to build a treehouse. I started to collect firewood, and there were a lot of dead branches that fell in the forest, and after a while, I picked up a lot of them and piled them together.

Blowing the fire fold to light the thin branches, lighting the bonfire, and then put the wormwood upright next to the bonfire, the wormwood is roasted by the bonfire and emits a burst of wormwood fragrance.

She also picked up some mushrooms in the woods, and also picked up a dozen wild duck eggs and put them in the back basket. Looking at the big birds perched by the river, I went back and shot with my bow and arrows.

After shooting three in succession, Yao Xiaoqing stopped, picked up the wild birds with red legs and colorful feathers, cleaned them up by the river, smeared them with salty salt and spices, picked a few palm leaves and wrapped them, and then dug up some mud to wrap them.

I found a few stones, surrounded a simple earthen stove, took out a fire breaker, lit firewood, and put it in the hearth. When the fire is burning, put the mud-covered waterfowl into the fire.

Wild duck eggs are washed and dug up with some thin mud and wrapped in a fire, and the cooked duck eggs are more fragrant than boiled.

Jiang Li took Heiba and Da Liang to find some small trees with thick arms to cut down, shave the branches, and climb to a big tree that can only be hugged by more than a dozen people with Heiba, cut off the thick forks on the tree, and prepare to build the tree house on it.

Da Liang raised the wooden stick below and passed it to the two of them.

The two of them used flexible rattan to tie the wooden sticks one by one in the middle of the thick forks, first spread the bottom layer with the thick wooden sticks, and then began to tie the wooden sticks around them.

Jiang Li turned his head to look at Yao Xiaoqing from time to time, and only when he saw her nearby did he feel relieved to work.
