Chapter 198 The chestnut found by accident(2/2)

Honghua picked up a cracked thorn ball and cut it with a stone knife to reveal two brown nuts inside with a brown hard shell.

"This is chestnut!"

Honghua excitedly cut the hard shell with a stone knife to reveal the light yellow flesh inside. She bit her a little, tasted it, nodded and said, "That's right, it's a chestnut."

I picked up a few more red flowers and took them to Chenbei to see them.

The hunting team stopped, Chen Bei got off the rhino king's back, took the nut handed over by the red flower, and said in surprise: "Is this... a chestnut?"

Honghua said: "I don't know what other tribes are called. In our tree tribe, this thing is called chestnuts. You can throw it into the fire and roast it and eat it. It's very fragrant."

Chen Bei crushed the hard shell with his bare hands, tasted it, nodded and said, "That's right, it's a chestnut. This is a good thing, an unexpected harvest. Are there any seedlings?"

Honghua said: "I just looked at it and there were seven or eight small trees next to the big tree, the thickness of fists. However, winter is here, and I can't plant it even if I dig it back. I need to wait for spring to arrive."

Chenbeidao: "Then wait for spring to come again, record the location first, and pick up some good chestnuts on the ground and go back."

"yes!"

Honghua immediately brought some totem warriors to pick up chestnuts and marked them on the nearby big trees. It would be easy to find them next spring.

Chen Bei took out a animal skin roll and a homemade animal brush.

This animal skin scroll is very big. It is a map that Chenbei has been drawing, and it marks the mountains, rivers and tribes around the Mang Tribe.

Now, he found the approximate location next to the Wild Boar Mountain Forest and drew a thorn ball to represent chestnuts.

Soon, the chestnuts on the ground that were not eaten by wild boars were picked up by Honghua and others, and put them in a large sack of woven bark. Even the chestnuts on the tree could be picked off.

Several large bags of chestnuts were placed on the rhino's back, and the rhino had no objection to this. Anyway, they were very strong, so camel-spotted chestnuts were nothing.

Chen Bei went to see the small chestnut trees again. They were indeed as thick as bowls. After transplanting them, they would probably bear fruit in two or three years.

This is good news, because if you plant it directly with raw chestnuts, it will probably take many years to grow up and grow chestnuts. Chenbei doesn't want to wait that long.

"It's resistant to storage, can be eaten raw or roasted, it's a good food."

Chen Bei was very satisfied with this. The more food the tribe is, the better, so that it can feed more people and change the taste from time to time.

After picking up the chestnuts and marking them, the hunting team continued to move forward.

Although there were some dangers on the road, they were all solved by the hunting team, and the group successfully arrived at the Wild Boar Forest.

The Wild Boar Mountain is located in the northeast of the Mang Tribe, about a day and a half away from the Mang Tribe.

This name was taken by Chen Bei because he once hunted a giant wild boar here.

This mountain forest is also a common place for hunting teams in the Mang Tribe. It is a commonly used hunting route. The people in the hunting team are very familiar with this place, and everyone's mood is a little relaxed.

The route I took before was unfamiliar, and no one knew what unknown dangers were ahead, and everyone was nervous.

Now that I have come to a familiar place, I feel much better.

Chenbeidao: "Yun, you take people to the giant wild boar, find two big ones, and come back and tell me when you find them."

"yes!"

The cloud lit up a dozen totem warriors, and then quickly disappeared into the woods ahead. They were very familiar with this place and knew the approximate range of movement of the giant wild boar.

"Everyone rest on the spot, eat something, and hunt giant wild boars for a while."

Under Chen Bei's order, except for the people who were watching, everyone else sat down on the spot and took out jerky, dried fruit and other food to eat.

And Yun and the others, after more than an hour of hiking in the woods, finally found traces of the giant wild boar.

"Captain, there are traces of giant wild boars there."

A totem warrior came back and called out, and Yun and other totem warriors rushed over immediately.

It was a grassland, all the soil was turned upside down, and the rhizomes, grass roots, etc. of the small trees were eaten a lot.

In addition, there is also feces, which are dark brown and striped, and look quite fresh.

Yun found the footprints of the giant wild boar in the mud, measured the size with his hand, and then looked at the size and freshness of the feces.

"It should be an adult giant wild boar. I just left not long ago and continued to search with these traces."

Giant wild boars are large in size and leave obvious traces when moving, so it is not difficult to find them.

An hour later, Yun and the others finally found two giant wild boars. They were indeed adults and were very large, each with about 3,000 kilograms.

"Go back and tell the leader."

Yun left two people to keep an eye on him, and then took the others back to the location where Chen Bei and others were, informing the giant wild boar.

"It's them, go, go hunting and offerings."
