I thought that the ladies, getting up in the middle of the night to watch the excitement would delay today's teaching.
The fact is, Mrs. You took it for granted.
Mrs. Xian, the newly appointed leader of the Xian family, started going from house to house urging everyone before they had finished eating.
There are many roads from the tribe into the virgin forest. Today, the patriarch’s wife led everyone to the farthest and most peripheral road.
Not to mention, with a different leader, the journey went incredibly smoothly.
Even the common jungle snakes were not found.
Under the scorching sun, a group of people stopped at today's destination.
Amazing, amazing!
Mrs. You looked at the dozens of big trees that required two or three ladies to embrace, and sighed at the gifts of nature.
I saw bunches hanging on these trees. Their appearance and color were very similar to figs, but the fruits were as big as her little sister's head.
What's strange is that their fruits are not grown on branches, but on the trunk, and they look like "popping" out of the bark of the trunk.
From bottom to top, they are densely packed, with more red and less green, which is very beautiful.
At a glance, each tree can bear at least thousands of fruits.
It’s so productive!
The people under the tree all stared at the fruit and swallowed their saliva.
The eldest wife of the Xian family was very proud, pointing to these fruits and said to the young ladies: "Come on, the rag seeds brought back yesterday don't have much pulp to eat, so let's go ahead and pick the ripe Gudu fruits today!
Gudu fruit is a good thing. Its young leaves are edible in spring, and its pulp is also delicious in autumn. I will teach you how to choose between male and female fruits. The male fruit cannot be eaten, but the female fruit can be eaten by postpartum women without breast milk. It is excellent! "
It turns out that this giant fig is called "gudu fruit" here!
This is also one of the fruits that all the children in the "big pit" like to eat most in autumn.
However, be careful when eating it, as there are secrets hidden in its fruit.
Sure enough, when the ninth cousin picked a ripe Gudu fruit, she cut it in two with her precious knife, and in the blink of an eye, a small bee emerged from the fruit.
Gudu fruit, like figs, has no flowers but fruit. The bees burrow into the fruit to pollinate it and then do not come out.
I don’t know if the honey it brews is the same variety as fruit honey.
If you are lucky, you will encounter little bees, but if you are unlucky, you will cut out a bunch of ants.
If you want to eat this honey, you have to endure the nausea of sharing it with all kinds of small insects in nature.
Madam You, of course she has no problem.
Not only was she fine, but about twenty young ladies had already buried their faces in the flesh of the newly picked Gudu fruit without raising their heads.
"Suck yo yo"
"Suck yo yo"
The jelly-like syrup is intoxicatingly sweet when you take a sip.
Thousands of fruits as small as sesame seeds bring an extremely rich taste feast after the collision on the tip of the tongue.
It is indeed the best among wild fruits!
The women didn't care to eat it on site. Most of them were masters of climbing trees, leaving the fruits in the low places for the young ladies to pick.
Five people had already climbed up on the branches.
In less than half an hour, a small mountain of Gudu fruits had been piled up in the animal skins under the tree.
As the pick was rising, the woman who climbed the highest suddenly let out a scream, "Ouch!"
Making everyone look up at her.
The woman held the tree trunk with one hand, pointed at everyone with the other, and stomped the tree in anger: "Which of you hit me with the fruit? Come out and admit your mistake quickly, don't dare to take it seriously!"
In addition to the severe pain, the Gudu fruit exploded and its juice soaked her clothes.
Really angry, the woman thought that no one could forgive her easily.
None of the women came forward to take responsibility for the incident, and they even pointed out each other's previous status and location, showing that they were not the ones who did such boring things.
The little ladies under the tree looked at me and I looked at you, feeling at a loss what to do.
Just when everyone was in a stalemate, several people who were about the same height as the woman who was hit were also attacked one after another.
"ah!"
"Who hit me!"
Seeing that something was wrong, Mrs. Zhao shouted sharply: "Come out? Who is he!"
Everyone has heard "sparse" sounds in the jungle.
The person on the tree gestured to the person under the tree, and in a few clicks he determined the direction in which the fruit would hit.
Following the direction of their fingers, Zhao and her aunt had already determined their next move in their eyebrows.
Unexpectedly, the opponent was not afraid of their little No. 30 at all. Before everyone could take action, there was another round of fruit battle flying from the sky, with incredible firepower!
The primary target is, of course, the people in the tree!
"Ouch, it hurts so much!"
"My nose is bleeding, it hit me in the face!"
There were screams, and some people even fell from the tree in pain.
This really irritated everyone, and the little ladies who had just been enjoying their meal suddenly entered a fighting state.
Mrs. You held the cold iron knife that her father had beaten with her own hands and followed her mother-in-law.
I felt like I was eating hot pot and simmering my belly, and I was very nervous.
A group of people quietly approached deeper into the forest step by step.
Less than fifty meters away, suddenly, a long cry came from the jungle:
"Ouch. Ouch. Ouch."
One after another, the sounds were high and long, each one faster than the other.
Then, there were more "oohs" in response.
When Zhao and others heard this voice, they took a long breath.
"I thought people from other tribes had come into the forest, but it turned out to be apes."
"Auntie, were they the ones who hit us just now?"
"Isn't that right? These guys are really strong."
As soon as the mother and daughter finished speaking, a group of about fifteen or six gibbons, either yellow-brown or completely black, jumped out from the Guduzi tree in the distance.
A yellow-brown gibbon, the black crown spot on the top of the head can extend from the shoulders to the back, and there is a ring of white hair on the face.
Mrs. You quickly pulled out the birth plan of this gibbon from the memory of the past animal world.
It seems that in modern times, this species of ape is quite rare!
Are you in the first or second year of the country?
Before she could smile at the national treasure, she was given a warm welcome gift.
I saw these guys swinging on swings to pick fruits. Their long arms picked up the fruits and threw them at the crowd. Their movements were so smooth!
The young ladies under the tree were also targeted.
One by one, everyone was hit seven or eight times.
The attack was so fierce that everyone squatted down holding their heads.
The face of the eldest wife of the Xian family turned the color of pig liver. She finally made up her mind to contribute this secret base.
The fruit forest that was originally intended to be used to give her a face, unexpectedly ended up in the territory of the apes.
These evil beasts are smarter than children, and they are quite vindictive.
