Chapter 162 The Cannibal Tree and New Home
Looking at the corpse that was bitten by a centipede and festered quickly, after the iron knife was pulled out, I washed it with water three times, and washed the pine cones more than ten times with soil before I dared to hang it on my body.
"When we came last time, we didn't encounter such a big bug, and there were many more snakes on the road than before!"
Continue to set off on the road, this time the tung tree was forced by a knife, so the prisoners were willing to walk in front and open the way.
Moreover, Wang Wei also agreed to them that when he arrived at the destination, the prisoners responsible for opening the way could join the tribe and remove their identities as prisoners and slaves.
Under the coercion and temptation, the prisoners had to wear several layers of dull animal skins and walk carefully and trembledly in the front.
The next two days were particularly difficult.
Although I did not encounter those huge dinosaurs or beasts, various venomous snakes and venomous insects that Wang Wei had never seen or even thought of appeared one after another.
Even the strange tree that can eat people has been touched by Wang Wei and the others.
The next morning, when passing through an open grassland, there was a big tree covered with vines and red flowers in the middle of the grassland.
The flowers exuded an attractive fragrance, attracting people to come and pick them.
The tung tree told Wang Wei very clearly that when they came over last time, there was absolutely no such big tree on this grass.
Even when I saw this big tree, the tung tree once wondered if it had led the wrong path.
Because the big tree is very tall and looks at least ten years old, it is impossible to grow from the plain in just twenty or thirty days.
If something goes wrong, there will be a demon. Wang Wei does not intend to get close to the big tree to find out.
However, what Wang Wei did not expect was that when seeing the beautiful flowers on the big tree, the red flower couldn't help but run out of the convoy and wanted to pick one.
As a result, as soon as she met a flower, she was entangled by the vines rolled over from behind.
There are many tiny spikes on the vine, tied to the human body, and the spikes immediately pierced the skin.
Fortunately, Honghua wore two layers of animal skins to protect against snakes, but the exposed skin on her arms suffered a small amount of damage.
Seeing that the tribe members were trapped, Tongshu and others rushed over.
As the iron knife in his hand slashed, a piece of vines hanging from the tree were cut off.
The vines that fell to the ground twisted like earthworms for a while, and then stopped moving.
And the cut-off interfaces are like faucets, with red sap dripping downwards.
Seeing this, Wang Wei was shocked. He really couldn't tell whether this strange tree was considered a creature or a plant.
Although there are many vines on the monster tree, the iron knife in the hands of Tongshu and the others is not a vegetarian. With one knife, most of the vines were cut off in a blink of an eye, and the tied red flowers were also rescued.
Looking at the vines twisted on the ground, everyone felt creepy.
A tree that can move and tie people has really refreshed everyone's cognition.
Although Wang Wei knew that there were many carnivorous plants on the earth, those plants could only catch some small animals such as mosquitoes and ants at most. Such plants that could catch people are unheard of.
"Burn this tree for me!" After fear, Wang Wei ordered.
After many of the vines hanging from the strange tree were cut off by the tung tree and the others, the remaining vines shrank back and were plated on the trunk like snakes. The whole tree looked harmless.
But Wang Wei knew that if it weren't for the fact that he had many people today and had iron swords, he would probably have been in danger this time.
Cans of lamp oil were poured onto the tree. After igniting, the whole tree instantly turned into a huge fireball.
The retracted vines hung down and twisted randomly, looking like demons dancing.
What shocked Wang Wei the most was that as the fire wrapped around the tree, the man-eating tree actually began to move.
After a closer look, Wang Wei found that there were not many roots at the bottom of the man-eating tree hidden in the grass, but rather thick vines of more than ten square meters spread. When the vines twisted, they not only supported the weight of the big tree, but also could move on the ground with it.
Seeing the cannibal tree completely losing its vitality in the fire, Wang Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Honghua was rescued, she was frightened. What worries Wang Wei the most was that her hands, which were pierced by the cannibal tree, gradually became numb. After a while, she completely lost consciousness.
Although the skin was not swollen or discolored, the hands were completely useless. Even if Wang Wei cut a wound on her hand and observed the color of the blood, the red flowers did not feel any pain at all.
Fortunately, this numb feeling is only near the hand and does not spread to other parts of the body.
After two hours, after a desperate cry, Honghua magically discovered that her hands gradually regained consciousness.
Seeing this situation, Wang Wei guessed that when the man-eating tree pierced the red flower skin, it should have injected juice similar to anesthetic into her body.
Thinking of this, Wang Wei couldn't help but feel a little annoyed about his reckless behavior just now.
Although it is terrifying to encounter plants that can eat people for the first time.
But if you think about it carefully, it is not too dangerous for yourself who has an iron knife as a weapon. If the juice secreted by this cannibal tree really has an anesthetic effect, it will be of great use in the future.
Thinking of this, Wang Wei asked someone to collect the vines cut off by the tung trees and the others and put them on the car, intending to study them when they have time in the future.
Historians have developed a very dangerous prehistoric world based on fossils.
However, how many creatures can there be left behind in this world, and how many of these fossils will be discovered by humans.
The dangerous primitive society they studied was hundreds of times safer than the actual primitive society.
Giant poisonous insects, venomous snakes, huge dinosaurs are nothing, and even a big tree that looks harmless is capable of eating people.
After passing through this grassland, you will reach the destination of Wang Wei's migration this time.
But from the time we encountered the poisonous snake and sacrificed the first person to the present, eight people died in the migratory team in just a few days.
Fortunately, this migration took place after the beast tide and along the road flattened by the beast tide.
If there was no such beast tide to clear the creatures and plants along the way, the twenty-day migration would only be eight people. If one of them was not lucky, it would be impossible for everyone in the convoy to explain on the road.
Fortunately, despite the sacrifice, I finally arrived at my destination.
This place is the farthest place where Tongshu and the others came from.
Because if you go further, there will be a primeval forest where there is no trace of the destruction of the beast tide.
The traces of humans at the foot of the mountain were also discovered nearby.
Looking at the endless primeval forest ahead, and then looking at the endless grassland behind him, as well as the endless mountains on the left and the sparkling lake on the right, Wang Wei inserted the wooden stick in his hand heavily into the ground.
