This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 246 - 160 Finally Arrived at the Southern Wilderness! _2
Chapter 246: Chapter 160 Finally Arrived at the Southern Wilderness! _2
Several times, even Huo Meng thought it might be impossible to continue, let alone the others.
Fortunately, they were quite lucky. With those dreadful frog toxins, Huo Meng led them again and again out of danger, eventually reaching the Southern Wilderness.
After crying for a while, Huo Meng lifted his head and wiped away the tears.
Because he knew very well that although they had endured the toughest journey, the Frog Tribe’s arrival in the Southern Wilderness posed another massive challenge for survival.
The Frog Tribe’s witch looked even older, but his mindset was better than before, at least not as pessimistic.
"Chief, where should we go now?"
Huo Meng stood up and said to the witch, "Good places are likely occupied by other tribes. We should find a relatively secluded area suitable for the giant frogs to settle down for a while."
Huo Meng paused for a moment and then continued, "We could also inquire about the location of the Vine Tribe. If we can gain their assistance, establishing the Frog Tribe in the Southern Wilderness would be much easier."
The witch nodded and said, "That’s all we can do."
The Frog Tribe rested for a while in the forest, drank some water, and then continued on their journey.
This time, they were searching for a suitable place to live.
Earlier, they had captured a few wanderers and, upon questioning them, learned that they were already within the territory of the Southern Wilderness.
After traveling further south, they confirmed this.
The current environment in the Western Wilderness was generally dry, even the wind felt dry.
The Southern Wilderness was different; the soil in the forest was moist, and even the air was humid. Forest stones were covered with thick moss, so damp you could squeeze water from them.
Streams and springs were plentiful; you didn’t have to walk far to find another, making water resources extremely abundant.
The giant frogs were delighted, their calls louder than ever, as they loved such humid environments.
The tribespeople of the Frog Tribe also felt joyful, though the long migration journey had taught them much.
Facing the unfamiliar Southern Wilderness, they did not let down their guard, but walked carefully, constantly vigilant against potential dangers.
Along the way, they encountered people from other tribes, but under Huo Meng’s lead, they tried to avoid conflict.
With so few people left in the Frog Tribe, they had to preserve their strength, and be cautious when needed.
Walking and resting intermittently, bypassing territories occupied by other tribes, the Frog Tribe took seven or eight days to finally find an unclaimed forest.
This forest was relatively secluded, the ground uneven, but its only advantage was a body of water, not even a lake, overgrown with weeds.
A larger tribe wouldn’t even consider such a place.
Yet Huo Meng was quite satisfied with it.
While good environments are ideal for living, they also bring high competition. What does the Frog Tribe have to compete with other tribes now?
Living in such less favorable conditions can help avoid conflicts with other tribes and allow them to nurture their strength.
That wild pond might be useless to other tribes, but it could provide a habitat for the Frog Tribe’s remaining twenty or so giant frogs to survive and breed.
Huo Meng stood beside the fire pond, watching the giant frogs leap into the pond, and said to the witch, "This place is very suitable for the current Frog Tribe. If the Frog Tribe grows stronger in the future, we can then compete for better places."
The Frog Tribe’s witch nodded in agreement.
Then, Huo Meng led the tribe to a fairly level piece of ground and began clearing weeds and thorns, cutting down trees, and building shelters.
...
Southern Wilderness, Vine Tribe.
After several months, most of the fifteen hundred captives from the Giant Lizard Tribe had accepted reality and were content to stay and work in the Vine Tribe.
Some even developed an affection for the Vine Tribe and wanted to join, becoming true members of the Vine Tribe.
At the second settlement, of the more than five hundred captives from the Jackal Tribe, the vast majority had started to see the Vine Tribe as their home, for the tribe offered them the stability they had longed for.
Among the tribes migrated from the Western Wilderness, except for the Fierce Bird Tribe, the others were all small tribes.
With the presence of the Vine Wall and the Vine God, these small tribes dared not provoke the Vine Tribe.
The Vine Tribe entered a relatively peaceful internal and external period.
Jiang Xuan finally could fulfill his promise.
Before the arrival of the Giant Lizard Tribe, the old witch wanted a large piece of premium stone for carving the Great Wilderness Hundred Herbs Map.
But at that time, Jiang Xuan simply didn’t have the time to accompany the old witch to the Rabbit Tribe.
Now, he finally had the time, so he planned to accompany the old witch on a trip there.
Jiang Xuan explained the tribe’s affairs to Chi Shao and others.
Then he prepared salt, pottery, and other goods.
Because premium stone was very heavy, Jiang Xuan did not ride Tang Yuan, but instead traveled with the old witch on a giant eagle to the Rabbit Tribe.
"Screech!"
The giant eagle carried the old witch and Jiang Xuan, flapping its wings to ascend into the sky, then flew towards the direction of the Rabbit Tribe.
If walking from the Vine Tribe to the Rabbit Tribe, even at a fast pace, would take six to seven days, but riding the giant eagle, they could fly straight in the sky, much faster.
However, since they had never visited the Rabbit Tribe before, it took them three days of circling before they finally found the place.
