If they didn't hunt beasts and ferocious beasts, what else could they hunt?
Shao Xuan was full of doubts, but before Shao Xuan could ask more questions, Ta had already walked over.
Since they were the advance group, they had to set off earlier than the other groups to explore the way.
"Alright, let's go!" Ta called out to the others. When they were about to set off, Ta turned around and looked at Shao Xuan, "Can you keep up with us? It's not like when you were with Mai and the others. Don't force yourself if you can't. "
Ta meant that the advance group would be faster. If Shao Xuan couldn't keep up with them, Ta might give him a hand.
"No, I'll try it myself." Shao Xuan had never seen the advance group's speed. Although he believed he could do it, he couldn't be too confident. What if he couldn't keep up with them? If he overestimated himself, he would be the one to suffer.
Hearing this, Ta didn't say anything more. He made a gesture to the other group leaders, and then led the advance group into the forest. In the blink of an eye, the forty figures had disappeared in the green forest.
Shao Xuan finally understood what Ta meant by "not as fast as the other groups". This was the difference between a motorcycle at full power and an ordinary electric car. He barely had time to pay attention to the surroundings.
Fortunately, Shao Xuan had improved quickly. Compared to when he had just awakened his power, his speed had improved a lot. Otherwise, he might not have been able to keep up with the advance group.
In order to check the general situation of this area in the shortest time possible, and to check if there were any ferocious beasts or other abnormal factors that were beyond the ability of the hunting group, every member of the advance group went to the destination they had arranged beforehand. Therefore, the group of forty people went in at the same time, and soon disappeared. Shao Xuan could only see Ta, who was leading him, and another warrior, Ah-Suo, who was about the same age as Tuo and Keke.
Except for Shao Xuan, the others were exploring in groups of two. They must have been familiar with the area they were going to explore.
After running for a while, Ta stopped. This was their rendezvous point. Later, the warriors who had been scattered to investigate would come here.
"Ah-Suo, you stay here and keep an eye on him. I'll go check it out." Ta left after saying that.
The reason why Shao Xuan was able to keep up with them was that Ta slowed down. He asked Ah-Suo to keep an eye on Shao Xuan in case they encountered any ferocious beasts. Ta seized the time to explore the planned area.
Ah-Suo was familiar with Tuo, but he was not optimistic about Shao Xuan. Before entering the forest, he was one of the people who laughed at Shao Xuan. What could a newly awakened warrior do? According to the team leader, it seemed that it was just a lucky charm. It was completely a decoration and had to be protected at all times. Regarding this, Ah-Suo despised him and hoped that this child would not be a burden like Hoodlum.
After Tower left, Ah-Suo paid attention to his surroundings. Ever since they entered the mountain, he had not even looked at Shao Xuan.
The surroundings were very quiet, except for the cries of birds and beasts. Ah-Suo thought that Shao Xuan would ask him some questions out of curiosity. However, after waiting for a long time, Ah-Suo did not hear anything from the person behind him. When he first joined the team, he had been curious for a long time. He had never met anyone who could be as calm as Shao Xuan.
Ah-Suo could not help but pretend to check the surroundings. He quickly glanced back, and then immediately turned back. He was stunned, and then turned back again to look at Shao Xuan.
Although Ta had not used his full strength since they entered the forest, his speed was still much faster than the other hunting groups. As a junior warrior who had just awakened his power this year, it was not easy for him to keep up with the others without any help. When Ah-Suo joined the advance group for the first time, he did not ask for any help either. However, he still gasped for breath for a long time after following them all the way here. It was only when the others gathered together that he finally felt better. However, now Shao Xuan was just a little short of breath. He was not even sweating. He stood there and looked around vigilantly, as if following them was nothing.
Was he really a newly awakened junior warrior? Or did he come out of the mountain cave?!
"Aren't you tired?!" Ah-Suo was very surprised.
Seeing Ah-Suo's strange look, Shao Xuan answered, "I'm okay."
Shao Xuan was indeed gasping for breath, but he recovered quickly. The sweat on his body was also dried by the wind. Feeling the energy in his body quickly replenishing, Shao Xuan could even use his ability to pay attention to the surroundings.
After looking at him carefully for a while, Ah-Suo found that this kid was not pretending. How strange!
Seeing that Shao Xuan had no intention to ask, Ah-Suo felt bored. He used to follow Ta to explore, so why would he stay here? This place was relatively safe, so it was okay to talk.
"Aren't you curious about what we are going to do?" Ah-Suo asked.
"You won't tell me even if I ask." Shao Xuan had asked before, but Ta, Tuo, Keke, and the others did not answer directly. They only told him, "You'll know when the time comes."
"That's because we are not separated from the other teams. When the time comes, of course we won't tell you. What if we tell you and you tell others? The Shaman doesn't want too many people to know. But now, I can tell you if you want to know. "Ah-Suo said proudly.
He saw that Shao Xuan seemed to have some ability, so his attitude was a little better. Once his attitude was good, his old habits would resurface. What he liked most was to answer all kinds of questions about the advance group to the newcomers. It gave him a sense of pride, especially when he saw the shocked expression on the newcomers' faces, which made him feel refreshed.
"Our team has a task, and it's given by the Shaman." Ah-Suo said. To them, this was an extremely high honor. Moreover, in the process, they were also the beneficiaries. "We can eat things that the others in the tribe can't. Moreover, we can become stronger than others in the future."
After listening to Ah-Suo's bragging for a while, Shao Xuan could not help but interrupt, "So what is the task?"
Ah-Suo, who was immersed in his own pride, was a little unhappy to be interrupted. He snorted, "Do you think the herbs used in the tribe can be found easily?"
Herbs?!
After receiving the bag of herbs from the Shaman, Shao Xuan also found that although he did not know what the original herbs were, he could distinguish the smell of some of them. However, there were many kinds of herbs that he had never encountered before, even when he was hunting with the advance group.
"So, you've been hunting for … plants?"
"Not all of them." Ah-Suo said.
Were they really plants?!
Shao Xuan was shocked. How could they use the words "hunting" and "killing" to find herbs?
What kind of plants were they?!
While they were talking, Shao Xuan heard a whistling sound coming from afar. Then, whistling sounds came from other directions one after another. Some were closer, some were farther, and some were more vague. If you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't be able to hear it at all.
After the whistling stopped, people began to gather here. Ta was the last one to arrive. He had to go back to deliver the message to the advance group. If he was too far away, the others would not be able to hear it.
After a short rest, Ta led the others to continue their journey.
Before, they were the advance group, but after this, they became the tribe's herb hunting team, to complete the task assigned by the Shaman.
