The Caveman Made Me Awesome

All the warriors were excited to see so much scorched earth underneath, because it meant that countless substitute cercariae had been burned to death.

Cang Xin rarely showed a relaxed smile on his face, and shouted to Shi Pan: "You guys did a good job this time!"

Shi Pan grasped the feathers of the ominous falcon under him, with a bit of excitement, and with a bit of satisfaction after revenge, he stared at the countless scorched earth and charred corpses below.

When he left, he only burned down a cypress forest where the cercariae lived. He had no idea that the fire would spread so widely and burnt so much in the past few days. He speculated that maybe there has been no rain in the surrounding area for the past few days, and the climate is relatively dry, which is why the fire has such power.

To be able to destroy so many cephalic territories, the sacrifice of the clansmen is worth it.

Ye Xi's eyes suddenly froze.

"What tree is that?"

I saw several huge earth-brown giant trees standing in the charred ruins ahead.

The emerald green light representing vitality on these giant trees is very bright, which shows that they are all xenoplants, and they are advanced xenoplants.

Of course, there are as many heterogeneous plants in the Sea of ​​Fierce Beasts as ordinary plants, even high-level heterogeneous plants are not uncommon.

The reason why they attracted Ye Xi's attention was firstly because they grew intact in the charred ruins, and secondly because the appearance of this group of giant trees was so strange that it could even be said to be against common sense.

——All trees grow upside down.

The parts of their crowns are densely packed with roots, while the roots of the trees are thick branches with lush green flowers and numerous black fruits.

In addition to growing upside down, the roots of these trees are also very distinctive.

All the well-developed roots and hairs are intertwined with each other, forming a faint shape of a giant bag, and the openings of thousands of bags are all facing one direction, which seems to be the direction the wind blows.

In short, these giant trees grow in such a mess that it is difficult not to notice them.

"That's the smoking banyan tree."

A voice came from the side.

Ye Xi turned his head and found that the fierce falcon was flying nearby with Ting Lu'er.

Listen to green ears: "They will prey on thick smoke, and the smoke and dust produced when the fire burns is their nutrient."

"look!"

He pointed to the burning frontier in the distance.

Ye Xi looked along the place where Lu Er pointed. I saw countless huge smoke-eating banyans slowly crawling there, not afraid of the burning fire at all.

It was too far away to see clearly, so Ye Xi reached into the animal skin bag and turned the telescope out.

In the billowing thick smoke, the banyan tree stretched its body, supporting the bag woven with its roots, constantly capturing dust particles. Their root system has many hairy roots that are as thin as fluff, and the bag formed is like a filter, which intercepts the smoke.

A layer of dust thick as the bottom of the pot sticks in the root bag of all the banyan trees.

The forest fires keep burning, the smoke keeps rising, and they keep moving and capturing.

He also saw that some tobacco-eating banyan trees froze in place because of the heavy dust in the root bag, no longer crawling along the line of fire to chase the thick smoke, and seemed to be "left behind".

But soon they changed, and the branches grew small flower buds at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Listen to Lu Er's science popularization for Ye Xi: "When the smoke-eating banyan tree catches enough smoke, it will digest it on the spot. They will bloom and bear fruit quickly, and after a batch of fruits fall, they will climb over to chase the smoke again."

Ye Xi looked down.

Sure enough, I saw a few banyan trees full of flowers and fruits shaking their branches.

There were many black fruits crowded together on the branch, but they were all shaken off by the rustle. The emerald green flowers are tenacious, not falling off much, and there is a group of insects suspected of being bees lingering around the emerald green flowers with nostalgia.

After shaking off the fruit, these smoke-eating banyan trees went into battle lightly, and began to squirm slowly and quickly, chasing in the direction of the line of fire.

"This tree is too amazing!"

Ye Xi was amazed by the masterpiece of nature.

Is it because nature saw too many forest fires in the western continent, so it evolved specially? No wonder there are frequent forest fires in the Western Continent, but the air is not pungent.

"It would be great if we also had smoking banyan over there."

Ye Xi felt a little regretful.

I think the sky was covered in yellow-gray during the meteorite rain and fire. If there were such smoke-eating banyan trees, the air would not be so bad.

The fierce falcon in front slowed down and fell near the old swift.

Cang Xin said loudly: "The Yanyan Banyan is too big to be taken away. If Mr. Xi Wu wants it, why don't you take some seeds back to plant!"

Ye Xi said happily, "Then it will delay everyone for a while."

Without Ye Xi's orders, the old swift leaned down and flew towards the nearest banyan tree below.

The ferocious birds carrying other fighters also flew down one after another.

sieve!

sieve!

The smoke-eating banyan was shaking all over while crawling rapidly towards the line of fire. The tender green petals fell like rain, and the fruit in the center of the flower fell to the scorched black soil in large numbers.

The soldiers jumped off the backs of the vicious birds, and helped Ye Xi pick up the banyan fruits with their animal skins around them.

Ye Xi stepped on the ground barefoot.

The soil burned by the fire is hot and smoky, and the fruit of Ficus sylvestris is dark brown, which is very inconspicuous when it falls on the soil, which is also a way of protection.

He bent down to pick up a banyan fruit.

The fruit has a hard outer shell that well protects the seeds inside from being burned by high temperatures. When pinched hard, the outer skin was pinched, and the milky white nuts were exposed.

Cang Xin: "Try it? It's not poisonous."

Ye Xi threw the nuts into his mouth.

Hmm...no taste, not very tasty, not high in energy.

The old swift seemed to like it very much, and lowered its head to peck at a few banyan fruits.

After all the soldiers picked it up, they put all the banyan fruits into three large animal skin bags, and handed them to Ye Xi.

"Picking up so many?" Ye Xi took the heavy three sacks of fig fruit, and said with a smile, "We don't have so many fires now, so we don't need to plant so many fig trees."

Cang Xin: "Take it away, it's not easy to plant the banyan tree, so there will probably only be five or six."

"The germination rate is so low?"

Cang Xin nodded, as if thinking of something, and said: "This smoke-eating banyan tree seems to have been cultivated by the Wumu tribe. If Mr. Xiwu has a good relationship with the Wumu tribe, you might as well ask them how many."

Ye Xi was taken aback: "You said these trees were artificially cultivated by the Wumu tribe?!"

Is the Wumu tribe so powerful?

Lu Er and other Cang warriors were also very surprised, they had never heard of this saying before.

Cang Xin: "The Wumu tribe in the past was more powerful than the current Wumu tribe. The current Wumu tribe should not be able to breed similar things, but there should be some remaining smoke-eating banyan trees."
