Not only that, saltpeter is also one of the tools for making gunpowder.

If we can find saltpeter, we will be rich.

As for finding the salt lake, we are not ready yet.

After all, it's shown on the map.

This salt lake is not far away from the tribe.

It’s impossible to come back if you don’t go out for a month or two.

This time.

It's too long.

Therefore, we have to wait until Su Che has made sufficient preparations before setting out to look for the salt lake.

No saltpeter was found that day, but an incredible tree was discovered.

Su Che approached again as if he had seen a treasure.

Several people already knew.

Whenever Su Che shows an expression like this, he must have encountered what he wanted.

So, several people got off their mounts and followed Su Che.

Zhiya asked, "Did you understand?"

"Do you need to take this thing back? But this tree doesn't seem to have any fruit."

Su Che smiled slightly:

"Indeed, we should take them back, but we don't need to take the fruits. We only need to take the leaves."

While speaking, Su Che did not pick the leaves.

Instead, he squatted down and looked at the purple-black fruits on the ground.

"I'm so lucky. I actually came across a hundred-year-old strychnos nux vomica tree. With so many fruits, I can plant a whole grove of strychnos nux vomica trees after taking them back and processing them."

The strychnos nux vomica tree is also known as the arrow poison tree.

But they simply couldn't understand what Su Che said.

Daji even squatted on the ground and looked at the purple-black fruits on the ground with Su Che. She reached out and took one, and even put it to her nose and sniffed it.

Seeing Daji was about to take a step further, Su Che immediately took the fruit from her hand.

"Idiot! You can't eat this. Although the white juice in the leaves is poisonous, the fruit is definitely not edible."

When she heard that it was poisonous, Daji's eyes widened:

“Is this thing actually poisonous?”

Su Che nodded:

"This tree is called the Blood-Seeing Tree. If your hand is cut by its leaves, the white juice in the leaves will enter your blood and cause the blood to coagulate, eventually leading to suffocation and death!"

For an instant.

Several girls with animal ears all moved away from the Blood-Seeing Marquis Tree!

Such a dangerous thing!

Of course stay away!

Tamamonomae even subconsciously moved Su Che a little further away.

"Why do you want to take such a dangerous thing back?"

"What if you really cut your hand?"

Su Che knew that Tamamonomae cared about him, and said with a smile:

"It's okay, just be careful. Don't help me pick them this time. I'll do it myself."

Tamamonomae was of course not happy, she walked straight forward:

"No! You can't pick this!"

"If something really happens, what will happen to me, Ahri, and Daji?"

Xunxue also came along today. She said with a worried look on her face:

"Yes! If something happens to Master Wu, what will happen to our tribe? Master Wu, we should not bring such a dangerous thing back to the tribe!"

Ahri took Su Che's other hand:

"Yeah! You can't run into any danger! Get away from this tree!"

Look at how worried they are.

Su Che smiled slightly and patted Ahri and Tamamonomae on the head.

"It's okay! I just picked a little bit, the main thing is to bring the fruits back."

"Besides, this thing is poisonous, but there is an antidote. If there is an antidote, there is no need to worry."

As he spoke, Su Che observed his surroundings.

At this time.

See the tamarind tree nearby.

There are green plants growing there that look like weeds.

He picked a blade of grass and began to explain to them.

"This is red-backed bamboo grass, which can detoxify the poison of the strychnos nux vomica!"

"And it is the only antidote to the Blood-Seeing Marquis Tree!"

"Now, you don't have to worry so much, right?"

Several people came to Su Che and looked at the red-backed bamboo grass in Su Che's hand.

In their opinion, it looks too much like weeds!

But since Su Che said it was an antidote!

That must be the antidote!

So, they started helping to pick the antidote!

There is an antidote.

Tamamonomae no longer stopped Su Che from picking the leaves of the strychnos nux vomica tree, and even helped him pick them.

No one was injured during the collection process.

For Su Che, this time was another fruitful return.

After returning to the tribal territory, Su Che found a piece of vacant land and planted the collected strychnos nux vomica fruits and the uprooted red-backed bamboo grass.

He also generously watered the strychnos nux vomica and the red-backed bamboo grass with some life-giving water.

This is to increase their survival rate.

Su Che read the plant encyclopedia and knew that the living environment of these two plants was relatively complex.

Not drought-tolerant or moisture-tolerant.

Perhaps by using water of life, they can be made both drought-resistant and moisture-resistant.

He told the tribesmen not to enter this area at will.

Of course everyone was obedient and would not disobey Lord Wu's wishes.

Followed by.

Su Che called Mi Lu over again.

In addition, Zhiya also followed along.

For the sake of the tribe's population plan, Sparrow basically does not allow Tamamonomae to participate in hunting-related matters, unless Tamamonomae herself is bored and insists on participating, Sparrow will not stop her.

Therefore, Oriya, who had just joined the tribe, had gradually replaced Tamamonomae's position.

After the two men came to Su Che, Su Che took out the leaves of the tree that could kill with one blow.

This thing.

Zhiya and Su Che picked them together, so she knew.

Seeing each other again, Zhiya couldn't help but ask:

"When I was outside today, I wanted to ask, what is the use of picking these leaves, Master Wu?"

"Besides, this thing is extremely poisonous. If it touches the wound, you will die!"

"Wouldn't it be easy to accidentally hurt yourself this way?"

When Mi Lu heard that it was poisonous, he immediately became nervous.

"Is this thing poisonous?"

Su Che nodded and smiled slightly:

"It's precisely because it's poisonous that it's so effective!"

"The wooden arrows we use now are the most basic and their lethality is really limited."

"But if the juice of this leaf is applied to wooden arrows, the arrows' lethality will increase."

"With wooden arrows coated with this leaf, we can easily kill a large beast with one arrow."

at this time.

Zhiya and Milu immediately understood what Su Che meant.

Mi Lu understood and said in surprise:

"Yes! This will make it easier to hunt wild animals!"

Zhiya looked at Su Che and felt something was wrong, so she said directly:

"You said it was for better hunting of wild animals, but our tribe is not short of food now, and there is too much food. Master Wu used this juice for another purpose, right?"

Su Che chuckled:

"You are very smart!"

After praising Zhiya, he began to speak:

"The existing hunting traps are enough to ensure that all our tribesmen have enough food."

"However, we have only solved the problem of food and clothing, but the safety of the tribe cannot be guaranteed."

"Luckily, we haven't encountered a single attack while we're stationed here."

"But none of us can guarantee whether other tribes or wild beasts will come to our door tomorrow."

"If a large number of wild beasts or other beast tribes come to attack, we only have more than 60 people now, and they are all females. Our overall defense strength is relatively weak."

"In order to improve the tribe's defense capabilities, the weapons need to be upgraded. We need to coat the wooden arrows with poison. Then one arrow can kill an enemy, and it won't be a problem even if we fight one against many."

"Although we are outnumbered now, we don't have to be afraid as we have poison-coated wooden arrows."

Both Milu and Oriya listened very attentively.

In the end, they all nodded, thinking that Su Che was right.

However, this is not the end.

Su Che directly took out another wooden arrow from the space ring.

It is said to be a wooden arrow, but it only has the arrow body, while the arrowhead is tied with sharp stones.

"This is my improved wooden arrow. The arrowhead is made of stone. It takes a long time to make, but it can be reused."

"The wooden arrows used before were basically useless after one or two uses, but this stone arrow can be reused more than ten times, and that's on the premise of hitting the target."

"The method of making it is very simple. You just need to find a stone that is easier to polish and grind it into a sharp shape like this."

Afterwards, Su Che handed the wooden arrow to Mi Lu.

"You will lead your tribesmen to make wooden arrows like this. The more the better. Weapons are something that no one will complain about if they are too few."
