Chapter 1439: Sharp Weapons

"Are you sure you want to choose the seeds of the spiny bulb?"

Even if Fengyun was by Shi Fang's side, it was impossible for him to hear his words wrong, but when Fengyun said his choice, he still couldn't help but ask.

Fengyun also knew very well that Shi Fang would ask this, not because he really didn't hear his words clearly, but because he was surprised why he made such a choice.

In fact, Fengyun had already seen that, like Shi Fang, there were many people who expressed incomprehension of his choice, no, in fact, everyone was very surprised except for himself.

Although Shi Fang did not deliberately raise his voice when answering Fengyun's confusion, the soldiers of the expeditionary force on the scene were all carefully selected, all of them were deaf and clear-sighted, even if his voice was twice as low, they could hear it clearly.

Because of this, they have a more detailed understanding of the value of what they have come up with, which is also the real reason why they do not understand Fengyun's choice.

The seeds of the Thornball Tree he chose were not among the best of all items, but they were quite reluctant to rank in the middle of the list.

The seeds of the spiny bulb tree are not large, only the size of a thumb, and they are inconspicuous and dusty. If there is anything special about them, that is, their thorns are very sharp, even if a totem warrior is not careful, he will be pierced by it.

But that's about it.

You really can't understand why Fengyun chose it.

If it is used as food, it is completely unqualified, not to mention that the spikes on its outside are not easy to remove, even if it can be removed, it will also take a lot of time, with so much time, to find other things that can be eaten, you can definitely find more.

This is based on the fact that it can be eaten, because according to Shi Fang, even if the Thornball Tree only grows in the territory of cannibal barbarians, they never use it as food.

If it could really be eaten, they probably wouldn't let it go, because compared to the Terran territory, the cannibal barbarians' territory was still relatively poor, and there were often famines.

As we all know, driven by hunger, anything that can be eaten, will not be let go.

Whether it is for the human race or for the cannibal barbarians, if a thing has no special purpose and cannot be eaten, its value will inevitably plummet, and even if it is not classified as garbage, it will not be much better.

The seeds of the spiny bulb tree clearly fall into this category.

If it weren't for the fact that the fingers of the expeditionary soldiers who found it were pricked by it, and they thought it was special, and because it was relatively small and didn't take up much space, it was very likely that they wouldn't have wanted it.

Fengyun also knew that if he couldn't give an explanation that everyone could accept, they would be difficult to let go, but fortunately, he had already thought of his words before making his choice.

So in the face of Shi Fang's question, which was also the confusion of everyone on the scene, Fengyun simply nodded and said, "I'll choose it." ”

"Why?"

Immediately afterwards, Shi Fang asked himself, which was also the doubt in the hearts of everyone at the scene except Fengyun himself.

"I'm here to prick the trunk of the ball tree. ”

Fengyun calmly threw out his answer.

"What's so special about the trunk of the Thornball Tree?"

Fengyun's answer did not satisfy Shi Fang.

"You forgot, you told me yourself?"

"What did I tell you?"

"The trunk of the spiny ball tree is not only straight, but also dense, and more importantly, it can be easily split. You're not going to forget all of that, are you?"

"Hmm. I did say that, but what does that have to do with your choice of it?"

Although Fengyun had already made further explanations, he still failed to satisfy Shi Fang.

"It's a big deal. You don't know, the terrain of my tribe is a bit bad, and there is a lack of materials to make arrow shafts. I've listened to you, and the trunk of the Thornball Tree should be pretty good for making arrows. ”

"I see. You put it this way, the trunk of the Thornball Tree is really good for making arrow shafts. ”

After listening to Fengyun's words, Shi Fang showed an expression of sudden realization, and the confusion and incomprehension he showed were greatly reduced.

As long as you are a person, you know how important arrows are, and the consumption is extremely huge, and a tribe can indeed have a headache if they lack the materials to make arrows.

However, Shi Fang quickly said, "I still don't agree with your choice of the seed of the Thorn Ball Tree. ”

"Why?"

Although Fengyun's face was silent, his heart couldn't help but sink, worried that his true intention to choose the Thornball Tree Seed would be seen through by him.

That's right, what he told Shi Fang that the choice of the Thornball Tree Seed was to make an arrow shaft from the trunk of the Thornball Tree was not the truth at all, and he had never thought of using it in this way.

He would have chosen it, in addition to its extremely sharp thorns, which could easily pierce even the skin of a totem warrior, and a detail that Ishikata had inadvertently proposed when introducing the Thornball Tree.

As long as the thorn bulb tree bears fruit, whether it is ripe or not, as long as there is a move that harms them, whether it is a human or a beast, they will shoot out the seeds and attack them, and they are very fast.

The seeds of the Thorn Ball Tree reminded Fengyun of a hidden weapon often seen in martial arts before crossing over - the iron thistle, and it is indeed very pressing, and it is not lighter than the iron thistle.

If you feed poison on their spikes, whether it is attacking people or brute beasts, it is possible to achieve good results by surprise.

You can also use the Thornball Tree to shoot seeds when it takes damage, and you can also turn them into weapons. Plant them around the tribe, and if there is an invasion of foreign enemies, whether it is a totem warrior from another tribe or a brute beast, you can actively stimulate them to shoot seeds and attack the invading enemy.

As for how to avoid being injured by mistake, it is not difficult to solve.

If you can spray poison on the seeds of the Thornball Tree, your attack power will not be bad, and you may not have to fight them directly at all, and you will inflict heavy damage on them.

In addition, he also has a natural and man-made double cold spring, and watering them with spring water allows them to grow in a very short time, regardless of the growth cycle.

If they evolve and mutate in the process of cultivating them, it will be of great help to him, the cannibal barbarians, and even the entire Razor tribe, and become a weapon to defend against foreign enemies.

It was precisely because he saw the great potential of the seeds of the Thornball Tree that Fengyun chose them, and in his eyes, its value was far from comparable to that of other items that the soldiers of the expeditionary force could take out.
