We only scouted this small area.

If it went further, we probably wouldn't make it back before dark.

Lu Gene was clearly not satisfied with the progress of their task.

Although they had explored an area, it was either forest or snowfield with no valuable information at all.

The mapping process had barely advanced, making him feel embarrassed to report back to the tribe leader.

Seeing Luo Gene with his head down, Lu Gia waved his hand nonchalantly.

It's fine.

You made the right call.

I asked you to return before dark.

Don't worry, mapping can take time.

Clearly, Lu Gia had anticipated the situation.

The reason was simple.

The conditions of this era were too poor and it wasn't easy to create a map.

They couldn't reach far places at all.

Even without any unexpected situations with just two legs, one day was spent both mapping and observing the terrain and environment.

No matter how hard they rushed, they couldn't cover much distance.

Moreover, to ensure the reconnaissance team could operate outside for extended periods, they needed to solve the issues of food and freshwater.

At night, the outside was filled with wild beasts, making it extremely dangerous for three people to camp in the wild.

In simple terms, their trib's reconnaissance team did not yet have the conditions or strength to carry out long-term reconnaissance tasks.

Starting tomorrow, let's scout in a different direction.

While speaking, Lu Jia pointed at the still quite rudimentary map.

First, let's investigate the terrain closest to our tribe thoroughly.

We can deal with the more distant areas later.

After saying this, Lu Jia encouraged Lu Jeene a few more times.

Fortunately, Lu Gene was not someone who got stuck in a rut.

After a day of hard work, he had a clearer understanding of the arduousness of this task.

However, feeling the pressure on him, he did not shrink back.

Instead, it sparked his motivation.

Chapter 28.

The silly giant as night fell.

The aroma of food wafted through the tribe, constantly stimulating the hungry members of the red fox tribe, making them swallow their saliva repeatedly.

Ever since their original camp was destroyed by a snowstorm, they had been eating and sleeping outdoors, and they hadn't had a proper meal.

The enticing smell that kept invading their nostrils was simply a deadly temptation for them.

Is it already dinner time? Stretching lazily, Ziao Pan stood up and slowly walked toward the campfire.

After taking a couple of steps, he paused and turned back to look at the Red Fox tribe leader, who was still standing there in a days, seemingly lost in thought, "Hey, it's dinner time.

Why are you just standing there?" Hearing this, the Red Fox tribe leader's facial muscles twitched.

Then he reminded Xiaoan somewhat irritably, "I'm a prisoner.

" "I know.

" Xiao Pan tilted his head, seeing Xiao Pan's silly reaction.

The Red Fox tribe leader felt a bit speechless.

So will food actually come to us? In this era, when one tribe is annexed by another, the prisoners usually don't get food in the first few days.

This is common knowledge.

After all, in his impression, even large tribes don't have an abundance of food.

At the beginning, those prisoners haven't done anything and haven't shown their value, so they expect to eat and drink for free.

That would be too naive.

Xiaopan naturally understood the leader's meaning, but he maintained his silly demeanor while entering the honest person setting.

But our tribe doesn't lack food.

How foolish can this guy be? The Red Fox tribe leader felt speechless again, then spoke.

There are indeed quite a few road deer, but your tribe has many people, too.

We won't have enough to share.

At this point, the Red Fox tribe leader tone became somewhat complicated.

You should hurry over.

Otherwise, if you go late, you might not get a bite to eat.

He didn't have any ill feelings towards the silly giant who had been chatting with him for a while.

In fact, he was a bit worried about how this fool had survived until now.

And then he began to urge him to go eat.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Pan scratched the back of his head with a silly expression.

But our tribe has more food than that.

Are you really not going to eat? At this point, Xiao Pan didn't te continue and instead walked toward the liveliest area of the camp.

As he left, the other members of the Red Fox tribe immediately gathered around, clearly having heard Xiaoan's previous words, "Leader, should we go take a look?" The aroma of the food was simply too irresistible for them, and their expressions were visibly shaken.

Upon hearing this, a flicker of indecision appeared on the Red Fox tribe leader face and coupled with Xiao Pan's earlier words.

After a moment of struggle, he gritted his teeth and said, "All right, let's go take a look.

" At this point, as if he noticed something, he suddenly turned back to look at the people behind him.

Also, we have now been annexed by the Ming Jing tribe, and the Red Fox tribe no longer exists.

Don't call me leader anymore.

Having been a leader before, he understood well that no leader likes to see their people calling someone else leader.

As he mentioned before, they had been annexed by the Ming Jing tribe.

This was no longer the Red Fox tribe.

Everyone needed to recognize their positions.

It was fine for the original members of the Red Fox tribe to gather together and look out for one another, but they needed to maintain a degree.

Otherwise, they would be seen as rebels, and life would be hard for everyone.

With a nervous heart, after taking a few steps closer, Ziao Pan suddenly waved at him.

Over here, over here.

Xiao Pan's commotion drew the attention of several members of the Ming Jing tribe who instinctively glanced over.

Feeling those gazes, the Red Fox tribe leader's heart tightened, and he couldn't help but silently curse this silly giant for shouting.

To be honest, at that moment, he was already mentally prepared to be driven away by the Ming Jing tribe members.

However, the result was that after those people glanced at them, they ignored them and continued with their own business.

This situation made him breathe a sigh of relief.

And then with a large group of people behind him, he stealed himself and walked toward where Xiaopan was.

Looking at the big guy who was smiling and inviting them to sit down, his feelings became even more complicated, and he couldn't help but be secretly amazed that no one came to drive them away, not even acknowledging their presence.

This pot of soup you can share yourselves.

While speaking, Ziaoan lifted the wooden board covering the stone pot and a rich, savory aroma immediately rushed to their noses.

Looking at the tempting milky white soup, they instinctively swallowed.

He could almost swear that in his 20 plus years of life, he had never seen food like this.

"What is this?" "Fish soup," Xiaopan said as he scratched his hair.

"Fish soup.

" Another unfamiliar term.

He realized there were too many things and matters he didn't know in this tribe.

like the fish soup in front of him.

How to explain it? A hint of frustration appeared on Xiaoan's face and then he simply took a wooden bowl, scoop a bowl of fish soup and took a sip.

In short, you could drink it directly like this.

There s meat in it, but be careful of the fishbones while eating.

While speaking, Ziao pan dramatically spat out a small sharp fishbone.

These fishbones can hurt your throat.

Everyone should be careful while eating.

Meanwhile, on the other side, after leaving the group of newcomers to Xiaoan, Loaji, the tribe leader, felt much more relaxed, gnawing on a roasted wild rabbit, he had grease all over his mouth, and then he took big gulps of the delicious fish soup, feeling that all the gloom of the day had dissipated.

Of course, the only downside was that it lacked a bit of flavor.

Sigh.

If only I could sprinkle some chili powder and add some cumin.

Thinking of this, Luaji took another big bite of the roasted wild rabbit and began to consider where to get some seasoning.
