This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 97 - 88 The Glowing Mushroom_2

The Hunting Team from the Vine Tribe has a relatively lower casualty rate because their food supply is relatively sufficient, so they don’t have to risk their lives as much.

Before the sun set, they found a large stone wall and built a temporary shelter against it and lit a fire.

At night, Jiang Xuan and the others roasted the meat of the giant python to eat.

While tearing the snake meat and stuffing it into his mouth, Jiang Xuan said to Chi Shao, "As expected, plants that enhance strength are hard to find. We’ve been walking all day and haven’t encountered a single one."

Chi Shao replied, "That’s because people from all the tribes need plants that enhance strength. Once they’re found, they’re often picked clean, sometimes even the trees are dug up. Over time, these plants have become increasingly scarce."

Jiang Xuan said, "So if we find a place where no one has ever been, is it possible to find a lot of such plants?"

Chi Shao was stunned and said, "Maybe, but such places should be very difficult to find."

The Southern Wilderness is vast, and the number of tribespeople is actually not that large, but they continue to endure from generation to generation, migrating from one place to another.

A place might be deserted now, but years, decades, or even centuries ago, many tribes may have inhabited it.

That night, nothing particularly eventful happened.

The next day, the group continued on their journey. Chi Shao found some rather rare herbs along the way, which was an unexpected gain.

Before nightfall, they finally reached the edge of the mystical Mushroom Forest. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

"Huh, it’s already summer, yet there are still so many giant mushrooms?"

Jiang Xuan was very surprised to see that the Mushroom Forest hadn’t changed much since last time.

Ordinary mushrooms have a very short lifespan, some from sprouting to withering last only a few days, while the longer ones can reach one or two months.

Except for special mushrooms like Wood Ganoderma, which have a longer growth cycle.

Obviously, the various giant mushrooms in this Mushroom Forest belong to the category of mystical plants, and their growth cycle is different from ordinary mushrooms.

Chi Shao said, "Since these mushrooms are still here, the people from the Mountain Turtle Tribe should come by often. We should negotiate with them then."

"It’s getting dark now, let’s find a place to stay for the night first."

The group found a relatively safe place on the edge of the Mushroom Forest, built a shelter, and lit a fire for the night.

As darkness fell, while everyone was roasting meat and eating some plant tubers, Gou Teng, who was on lookout duty sitting in a tree, suddenly let out a cry of surprise.

Jiang Xuan immediately stood up and asked from the tree, "Gou Teng, what’s wrong with you?"

Gou Teng’s voice was a bit excited, "Leader, quickly come up and look."

"Look at what?"

"Mushrooms, glowing mushrooms!"

Hearing Gou Teng’s words, Jiang Xuan immediately climbed up the tree and looked towards the Mushroom Forest.

At that sight, he was momentarily speechless with shock.

In the vast Mushroom Forest, many mushrooms began emitting a faint glow with the arrival of dusk, like a multitude of night lamps.

These glowing mushrooms came in red, green, blue, and the whole Mushroom Forest was shimmering with colorful lights, unbelievably beautiful.

"There really are glowing mushrooms!"

"So beautiful!"

The admiration from Jiang Xuan and Gou Teng made it irresistible for the others.

They all climbed up the nearby trees and witnessed this breathtaking scene.

Jiang Xuan remained fairly composed since, after all, he had seen many night scenes in his previous life. To him, these glowing mushrooms were just novel and beautiful.

But for those tribespeople who had never seen electric lights, and besides firelight and moonlight at night, scarcely any other light, these glowing mushrooms were visually overwhelming.

Many people, including Chi Shao, were utterly captivated by the sight.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xuan was pondering. If these glowing mushrooms could exist for a long time and be transplanted, couldn’t they be used as light bulbs at night?

Of course, the glow from these mushrooms was relatively weak, making it unrealistic to rely on a few mushrooms to illuminate a whole house.

But even so, if the tribe could have some glowing mushrooms, it would indeed be a pleasant sight.

At that moment, inside the Mushroom Forest, more than a hundred warriors from the Mountain Turtle Tribe were using the light emitted by these mushrooms to collect a very precious mushroom, accompanied by two large mountain turtles.

This mushroom was called Luminous Mushroom, and once consumed, it grants the ability to see in the dark, like nocturnal animals.

Having Night Vision is extremely important for the tribespeople.

Because they often have to spend the night in the jungle, without the ability to see in the dark, they can only rely on bonfires to prevent wild animal attacks and cannot hunt at night.

In fact, in Jiang Xuan’s previous world, it was only after portable lighting devices appeared that people could venture out at night.

The Luminous Mushrooms are harder to identify during the day, but at night they emit a special glow, which is why the Mountain Turtle Tribe people search for and collect them at night.

"There’s one over there!"

A warrior from the Mountain Turtle Tribe spotted a Luminous Mushroom and eagerly ran over.

"Let me pick it."

The leader of the Mountain Turtle Tribe, Shan Jia, still clad in his thick Turtle Shell, walked over to the spot where the Luminous Mushroom was found and carefully picked it up.

This was an outwardly unremarkable mushroom, only palm-sized, and if it were daytime, similar mushrooms would be all over the Mushroom Forest.
