When Wu Chen went to the woods to look for wood for building a shed, Lin Xi followed him with a bow and arrow and a backpack.

She wanted to see if there was anything special to be found in the woods here.

After all, the place for collective sacrifices is so far away from the tribe, so the plants growing and animals living here should be somewhat different, right?

As she was thinking this, she followed Wu Chen step by step into the woods. Before she had walked far, she was actually hit on the head by a big surprise!

Lin Xi looked at the bamboo forest not far ahead and almost jumped up with excitement!

She quickly ran to Wu Chen who was not far away, pulled him towards the bamboo forest and said, "Wu Chen, follow me!"

"Xixi?"

Wu Chen was forced to stop the work in his hands and was dragged away by Lin Xi in confusion.

When he saw that Lin Xi was walking towards the bamboo forest, a hint of understanding flashed across his gray-green eyes.

He took a big step forward, walked side by side with Lin Xi, held Lin Xi's hand with his backhand, lowered his head and asked: "Xixi, do you want to eat the pointed tree?"

"Hmm?" Lin Xi looked up at him: "Do you call this a pointy tree?"

Wu Chen nodded, "Well, what did the tribe where Xixi lived before call the pointy tree?"

Lin Xi: "We call them bamboos, and the newly grown pointed little bamboos are called bamboo shoots."

"Bamboo, bamboo shoots?"

Wu Chen repeated the two words. Although they sounded unfamiliar, they somehow came across smoothly.

He watched Lin Xi walk into the bamboo forest, but she didn't lower her head to look for bamboo shoots. Instead, she looked up at the bamboo leaves high up. He asked curiously, "Xixi, what are you looking for? Aren't we going to dig bamboo shoots to eat?"

Hearing this, Lin Xi withdrew his gaze from the top of the bamboo forest and looked at Wu Chen: "Dig, of course. I'll make you stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat when I get back."

When talking about food, Lin Xi's eyes sparkled. Wu Chen's heartbeat suddenly quickened as he looked at the little female's brilliant smile.

He was just about to say that he would go dig bamboo shoots, when he heard Lin Xi suddenly say, "But Wuchen, there's no rush to dig bamboo shoots. I want to see if there are any bamboos that bear seeds first, get some seeds and plant them outside our cave."

Wu Chen didn't expect that Lin Xi even wanted to plant pointed trees!

But then I thought, since Xixi likes to eat bamboo shoots, and there are none in the tribe, I have to grow them myself!

So he said "Okay" and followed Lin Xi, wandering in the woods.

Lin Xi didn't know much about bamboo. He only knew that most bamboos only bloom and produce seeds once in their lifetime.

So even though the bamboo forest is very large, it is not easy to find bamboo that bears seeds.

However, just because it’s hard to find doesn’t mean it can’t be found. In the end, Lin Xi still found thick clusters of bamboo seeds on two trees.

Bamboo seeds are a bit like long-grain fragrant rice with rice husks, and are very small, but Lin Xi picked up half of the animal skin bag around his waist before stopping.

Of course, the seeds at high places were all picked by Wu Chen when he broke the mother bamboo directly. Lin Xi and he squatted on the ground and picked them one by one!

Yellow vertical lines can be seen on the main stem of this bamboo, which actually looks a bit like yellow-grooved bamboo.

The flowering period of yellow bamboo seems to be in spring!

Lin Xi thinks it's good, the yellow bamboo is good! The yellow bamboo is cold-resistant!

She remembered reading some popular science articles before that among the bamboos most suitable for planting in Northeast China, yellow groove bamboo is one of them.

In that case, even if the winter in the Shanhuo Tribe is long, she won’t have to worry about the bamboos she planted dying in the ice and snow outside!

And at that time she can also provide physical "warmth" for the bamboo forest.

After collecting the bamboo seeds, Lin Xi and Wu Chen dug a basket of bamboo shoots, and then dragged the wood they had found to build a shed back to the tribe!

When they arrived at the lake, Lin Xi saw from afar several strange orcs standing in the camp of the Shanhuo tribe.

Bai Nu and Wu stood opposite them, seemingly talking about something.

Suddenly Wu saw Lin Xi walking back, and quickly raised his hand and waved at her.

Lin Xi walked over with the backpack on his back. As soon as he stood still, he heard Bai Nu say to the orcs, "This is our Lin Xi the Wise."

Then Bai Nu looked at Lin Xi again and pointed at the several orcs in front of her.

"This is Feng Lin and Wu Fengqing, the leaders of the Baiyuan tribe, Lu Shi and Wu Chikong, the leaders of the Nancang tribe, and the wise Chi Yun."

Lin Xi looked in the direction that Bai Nu pointed. The leader and witch of the Baiyuan tribe were both orcs from the Gray Wolf clan. Both of them were males, tall and strong.

The few orcs of the Nancang tribe are all bird-type orcs, and they look slimmer than the wolf-type orcs.

Lin Xi's gaze involuntarily fell on the colorful long hair of several bird-like orcs.

Different from other orcs, the hair of bird-like orcs has a kind of flowing beauty that is particularly eye-catching!

After Bai Nu finished the introduction, several orcs looked at Lin Xi, with undoubting respect and curiosity in their eyes.

Except... the other wise man who was present!

Chi Yun, the wise man of Nancang tribe.

Chi Yun looked at Lin Xi with curiosity and scrutiny, but more than that, there was suspicion.

Her eyes swept over Lin Xi's thin and short figure, and inadvertently passed through the silent Wu Chen behind Lin Xi, and suddenly she chuckled:

"Chief Bai Nu, the appearance of a wise man always takes a long time of testing before it can be confirmed. How come the Shanhuo tribe is so fast that a wise man suddenly appeared?"

As she spoke, she suddenly moved closer to Lin Xi. Just as she sniffed him lightly, Lin Xi was suddenly pulled behind Wu Chen.

Chi Yun paused for a moment, with a look of concern on her face. She stood up, glanced at Wu Chen, then looked at Lin Xi and continued, "Besides, your wise man is so thin that he can't even smell the scent of the orcs. Can he really help the tribe?"

Chi Yun's hostility came out of nowhere.

Before Lin Xi opened her mouth, Wu Chen had already stood in front of her, looking unhappy, with a cold tone in his voice; "Xixi is a wise man, a wise man only needs to help us find ways to live a better life, and does not need to work for the tribe."

"Oh?" Chi Yun suddenly sneered. She looked at Lin Xi and pointed behind her. "The better way you mentioned, isn't it just making a thing to hold things? That thing doesn't look easy to use. Can you still use it after you turn into a beast?"

Wu Chen was stunned. He turned his head and glanced at the backpack behind Lin Xi.

The backpack was indeed a novelty to him at first, but after he turned into a beast, he really couldn't carry it with him.

But...Xixi taught the tribe more than just that!

He frowned and was about to retort, but suddenly heard Lin Xi speak calmly: "Of course there is more than one."

Several people looked at Lin Xi.

However, Lin Xi raised the corners of his lips and turned to look at Bai Nu and Wu:

"Chief Bai Nu, Wu, since I came to the tribe, I have made a lot of good things, right?"
