Chapter 12 Fire Snake Fruit
Zhan walked over and asked with concern: "How do you feel? Are you able to adapt, brother?" Mu Bei was initially touched by his elder brother's concern, but he felt sick after hearing what he heard afterwards.
"Brother, why do I feel that you are so excited to leave home? Are you happy to leave Am, or do you not like being with Am?" Mu Bei asked with a smirk.
"No matter what you say now, it's useless. Am is not here. Second brother, you said that your brother is so good to you, why do you always cheat me! When I was a child, I took so many blames for you and got so many beatings." Zhan chuckled.
Mu Bei couldn't help but said, "How many times have I told you not to call me Lao Er? Why can't you remember?"
"As long as you don't call me No. 2 from now on, I won't cheat you anymore." Mu Bei compromised helplessly.
"Okay, it's settled. We'll live in peace from now on." Zhan said with a smile.
As soon as Zhan called out the word "old", Mu Bei glared back at him. Zhan smiled and said, "I will slowly change after I get used to it. Bei, the spearmanship you taught me is really amazing. Now all the tribe members are practicing and making great progress. When I practice, I feel that my strength increases very quickly, but I get hungry too easily. I get hungry after practicing a few times. This time, the leader led the team to hunt in order to solve the food problem. Everyone is practicing and the food is consumed very quickly."
"Don't force yourself to practice, otherwise it will harm your body. You must learn to adjust appropriately." Mu Bei said seriously.
"I understand this logic. I heard from Am that my sister's strength is almost close to 3,000 kilograms. Is it because of that spear technique?" Zhan said seriously.
"It does matter, but not much. The main reason is that I'm willing to work hard. By the time we return this time, I may have already broken through 3,000 kilograms."
Zhan said regretfully: "What a pity. If you had invented the spear technique earlier, I would have had the possibility to reach three thousand pounds. I was closer than my father back then, but I was too impatient and wanted to become a totem warrior and couldn't help myself." Zhan said with a bit of regret.
"Don't worry, if you practice hard, your spear skills can strengthen your foundation, and you may be able to surpass your father in the future."
"Can the foundation be strengthened? Then there will be a chance to enter another level." Zhan said in surprise.
"Brother, do you know what the next level is called?"
"I heard my father mention it once, it seems to be called supernatural power, it's been too long, I'm not sure, I just heard it accidentally."
Mu Bei was thinking about supernatural powers, whether to obtain supernatural powers or to cultivate supernatural powers!
Mu Bei originally wanted to ask his father, but when he saw that his father was discussing something with the leader, he gave up the idea of asking. The most important thing is to steadily improve his strength first. One day, the answer will appear by itself.
The tribesmen in the hall took a break, and then they all picked up their spears and started practicing the spear-holding style. Mu Bei also joined the camp. Soon everyone stopped practicing, took out the animal skins and spread them on the ground, ready to rest. Four people took turns to keep watch.
"Are you still adapting today?" Li brought animal skins to Mu Bei and asked softly.
Mu Bei gave his father a gesture that it was all right. His father touched Mu Bei's head and turned to walk towards the exit. One of the high-level totem warriors had to go on night guard.
Everyone got up very early in the morning, spent more than two hours exercising and eating, and then prepared to set off. Mu Bei originally planned to bring Erha with him this time, but the lazy guy refused to go out. Mu Bei completely ruined the good Shadow Leopard.
After adjusting, everyone started on the road. They didn't encounter any special beasts along the way. But they encountered the chili pepper tree that Mu Bei liked. It was an authentic tree. It was full of fiery red chili peppers, each of which was more than one meter long. Mu Bei was not sure at first, but after Zhan's explanation, he was sure that it was chili peppers.
Zhan called it Fire Snake Fruit. Mu Bei picked a bunch and put it on his back. The team members were all confused when they saw it. Although this thing is not poisonous, it is not edible at all. It feels like your mouth is on fire. Everyone can only eat wild beasts tonight because they haven't encountered any ferocious beasts to hunt all day.
Everyone entered the camp cave and started to make a fire to cook and grill meat. Mu Bei made a small pot and cut a few pieces of meat, adding a little salt and chili pepper. Zhan saw Mu Bei adding chili pepper and his mouth twitched.
When he saw Mu Bei eating with gusto, he couldn't help but grab a piece. He took a careful bite, and the taste of the chili instantly stimulated his taste buds. He wolfed down the meat in his hand, and when he was about to grab another piece, it was gone.
Zhan quickly found a big pot and asked Mu Bei to cook another pot. The reason was that how could he not give such delicious food to his father to have a taste.
Mu Bei could only cook a big pot. Zhan didn't care if it was hot or not. He grabbed a piece and put it in his mouth. His mouth was burned and he didn't spit it out. But Zhan didn't forget it and made up his own excuse. He brought the pot to his father to eat. Soon, before his father had eaten a few pieces, they were all snatched away by everyone.
This time everyone knew that if the fire snake fruit was not eaten directly, but was boiled in a pot, the meat would become more delicious. Everyone decided to bring more when they returned.
"Can we pull up this fire snake fruit tree and take it back?" The leader looked at Mu Bei and asked. Mu Bei didn't expect that the leader actually knew how to transplant it.
"I'm not sure about this. This is the first time I've seen it too. I just heard my eldest brother talk about this fruit and thought of putting it in a pot to try if it's edible. But when I cut it open just now, I saw seeds. I don't know if it can be grown." Mu Bei replied.
"You can try this. If we have this fire snake fruit in the future, the meat will taste much better and it can also remove the fishy smell." The leader said with a smile.
Everyone was discussing how to cultivate fire snake fruit when they return home. Once the topic is discussed, time passes quickly.
In the morning, everyone continued on their way. Mu Bei walked, focusing his attention on his hearing, so that he could hear the sounds from far away. When he focused on an organ, it would magnify the organ many times. Mu Bei's current breathing method had already surpassed that of his previous life.
Mu Bei suddenly heard a big noise in front of him. From the sound, he could tell that the animal was very big. Mu Bei hurriedly gave the warning, making a quick bird call. The people in front heard it and quickly stopped. The leader behind him also came up and asked softly, "Who gave the warning?" Mu Bei hurried forward and said softly, "Leader, I gave the warning. I heard a noise in front of me. From the sound, I knew it must be a big creature."
The high-level totem warrior in front said, "I didn't hear any sound." Mu Bei explained, "My hearing is very strong, several times better than that of ordinary people. Even the hearing of totem warriors is not as good as mine." Mu Bei paused and said, "That big guy is approaching this side, everyone be careful."
Seeing that Mu Bei was very sure, the leader began to use sign language to let everyone separate and hide. Three high-level totem warriors came to the front together, waiting for the ferocious beast to come. After waiting for a while, the ferocious beast still did not come.
Mu Bei was about to explain a few words, but when he saw everyone waiting cautiously, he gave up. This is trust, believing in anything that will bring crisis to the team, because only by being cautious can you live longer, and a small mistake will bring irreparable losses to the team and the tribe.
This is also the survival rule of the tribe. Soon, the sound of vibration sounded. When everyone heard such a strong vibration sound, it was easy to judge. The sound was getting closer and closer. Mu Bei focused his eyes and observed this big guy. It was 12 meters long, about four meters high, and weighed an estimated six tons. It had bone plates on its back and spikes on its tail.
