Chapter 33： fruit that increases strength

"Snapped!"

Jiang Xuan and the three approached the whip tree with a simple large shield, and the longest branch was the first to be drawn, with great force, making a crisp sound when it was drawn on the shield.

"Go on, go slower."

Jiang Xuan walked at the front, Chishao was in the middle, Shiloach was at the back, and the three slowly moved towards the whip tree.

"Clap clap clap..."

As the three approached, the whip tree was provoked, and countless branches were slammed down, hitting the big shield, making a series of noises.

The big shield perfectly defended the attack from above. The three people under the shield were unharmed, and they were getting closer and closer to the trunk of the whip tree.

"It's almost a success!"

Chi Shao was very excited. She never thought that one day she would be able to pick the fruit of the whip tree by herself. It was like a dream.

Jiang Xuan and Shi Loach were also very excited. They took the opportunity to speed up their pace and came to the bottom of the whip tree.

The whipping sound of the whip tree became more intense, but the large shield was still very strong except for some bark and sawdust.

The fruit of the whip tree matured relatively early. Although it is summer now, the fruit is close to maturity and exudes an attractive fruity fragrance.

"You hold your shields, and I'll go pick the fruit."

"it is good."

Jiang Xuan swallowed his saliva, let go of one hand, reached the trunk of the whip tree, and stretched out his right hand to the nearest fruit.

The fruit of the whip tree is green and oval when it is immature, and purple when it matures. A gap will be cracked at the bottom of the fruit, revealing the fragrant pulp inside, attracting prey to come.

The fruit that Jiang Xuan wanted to pick was a ripe purple fruit. Through the crack at the bottom, one could clearly see the full red flesh inside.

Jiang Xuan accurately grabbed the fist-sized fruit and twisted it lightly, and the handle of the fruit was suddenly broken.

The fruit was successfully picked by Jiang Xuan.

"Clap clap clap..."

When the fruit was picked, the whip tree became even more angry, and frantically beat the big shield, but to no avail, its branches were not strong enough to break a whole row of thick wood.

After successfully picking one, Jiang Xuan made persistent efforts to pick all the five fruits he could reach. He even stabbed the taller fruits with a bamboo spear.

Half an hour later, the ripe fruits on this whip tree were basically finished, and these Jiang Xuan were full of half an animal skin bag.

Poor Whip Tree, I'm afraid I never thought that after finally possessing a powerful means of attack, he encountered the shield made by Jiang Xuan.

If it could speak, it would have jumped and cursed long ago.

"Walk!"

Contentedly, Jiang Xuan tied the animal skin bag around his waist, and then with the red peony and the loach, held up the big shield and withdrew.

After they left, the branches of the whip tree also drooped down weakly. After smoking for so long, they were probably not lightly tired.

After the three of them got away from the whip tree, they threw away the bulky shield, and then began to look excitedly at the picking results this time.

"Get rich, get rich!"

Jiang Xuan put down the animal skin bag and untied the straps. Looking at the half bag of fruits, he immediately smiled, feeling extremely good.

"Can eating this fruit really increase your strength?"

Shi Loh picked up a fruit and looked at it over and over, still having some doubts about the legend of this fruit.

Chi Shao wasn't sure either, because she had only heard of such a legend, but had never tried it herself.

Jiang Xuandao: "What's there to guess, just try it and you'll know."

Jiang Xuan picked up a whip tree fruit, broke it in half along the crack, then cut a small piece of pulp with a stone knife, grabbed a worm on the tree, and put the pulp in front of the worm.

After all, the legend is a legend, Jiang Xuan dare not be careless, he must make sure that this fruit is non-toxic before he can eat it with confidence.

Insects are relatively weak, generally poisonous fruits, insects will die soon after eating.

The worm had no intelligence. After smelling the attractive fruit aroma, it immediately lay down on the fruit and nibbled it quickly. It seemed that it was very happy to eat.

Jiang Xuan was not at ease, so he caught a few other bugs and fed them some fruits of the whip tree.

Half an hour later, the worms were not only safe and sound, they even searched for that kind of pulp everywhere.

Jiang Xuan was finally relieved, and even insects were not poisoned to death, which means that even if this fruit is poisonous, the powerful physique of the tribesmen can withstand it.

"I'll try one first."

Jiang Xuan picked up a fruit and wiped it, as if putting it in his mouth.

However, Chi Shao quickly snatched his fruit, put it into his mouth quickly, took a bite, and swallowed it.

Chi Shao smiled at Jiang Xuan and said, "I've been greedy for a long time, but I couldn't hold back for a while."

However, Jiang Xuan knew very well in his heart that Chi Shao had only one reason for doing this, that is, she wanted to test the poison first.

Although I have tried it with insects, the poison in the jungle is full of strange things, and someone has to eat it first before they can truly feel relieved.

Chishao quickly ate all the fruits the size of her fist, then tied the animal skin bag and said, "Let's go to the plants that eat insects first. There are so many fruits, you can eat them slowly when you go back."

Jiang Xuan knew that she was using this excuse to delay time, and was moved silently in his heart.

Chi Shao is really kind to him, no matter what dangers he encounters, he is always the first to go, for fear that Jiang Xuan will be injured.

Under the condition of tacit understanding, the three continued to walk in the swamp, looking for insect-eating plants.

It didn't take long for them to find a plant.

This plant is called Clap Flower.

It has red flowers on the top, and it blooms very brightly. The whole plant has only two leaves, and the shape of the leaves is very similar to two big hands.

This plant relies on the nectar in the flowers to attract insects. When the insects fly over, the two ghost-like leaves quickly attack, attacking from both sides, and slap the insects to death.

In the end, the bug fell to the ground, was quickly wrapped by the root system of the clap flower, and digested slowly, so that it would not be carried away by the ants.

Jiang Xuan dug up seven or eight seedlings of clapping flowers, because it was getting late, the three of them took these seedlings and a bag of whip tree fruit on their way back.

In the evening, the three returned to the Vine tribe.

Jiang Xuan first planted the seedlings of the clap flower in the ground, then returned to the bamboo house and opened the animal skin bag containing the fruit.

At this time, half a day had passed since the red peony had eaten the whip tree fruit, and there was no sign of poisoning in the red peony, indicating that the fruit was non-toxic.

"Sister, do you feel anything after eating the fruit?"

Jiang Xuan looked at Chi Shao expectantly.

Chi Shao thought about it carefully, and said, "When I came back, I felt a lot lighter and less tired than before."

Jiang Xuan's eyes lit up, which shows that the fruit of the whip tree is really amazing, at least it can make people more physically strong after eating.

"Where's the strength? Has the strength increased?" Jiang Xuan is most concerned about whether eating the fruit of the whip tree can increase his strength I will know after a try. "

Chi Shao walked out the door, found a big rock that she was familiar with, hugged it with both hands, and raised it above her head.

"Huh? My strength seems to be much stronger! Lifting this rock was not so easy in the past."

Chi Shao gently put down the big stone again, and tried other stones to make sure that her strength had increased.

"Great! It seems that the legend is true. The fruit of the whip tree can indeed increase one's strength."

Jiang Xuan's excitement was beyond words, it seemed that his hard work was not in vain.

At the same time, he thought of more things.

Legend has it that the warriors of some large tribes will grow much faster than ordinary warriors because they can eat the fruits of some magical plants.

Now it seems that the fruit of the whip tree is obviously one of the magical plant fruits that can increase strength when eaten.

If you can find more magical plants and pick more fruits in the future, there may be three-color warriors, four-color warriors, and even five-color warriors in the Vine tribe in the future!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan's heart surged.

A powerful tribe needs strong warriors to protect it.

If the Vine tribe can add a group of powerful warriors through this method, then in the future, they will be able to gain a firm foothold in this wild and primitive jungle.

That night, Jiang Xuan divided Chishao, Uncaria, Shiloh, and Nanxing. As the leader, he divided two more than others.

After Jiang Xuan ate one of the fruits himself, he only felt that part of his body's potential had been stimulated. The fatigue of the day was swept away, and the whole body was full of energy, and the muscles of the whole body became stronger!
