Traveling through ancient times: Savages are hungry for food

Chapter 267 Fantastic Growth

The sacrificial ceremony was over, and Cang also put down the animal bones.

Sensing Sang's flustered and anxious expression, he immediately grabbed Sang Tian's wrist, and the warmth and slight strength of his palm gave her strength.

"Sang, don't worry. This is because the witch used her magical power to control the celestial phenomena and birds, prompting the spirit of the Heavenly Wolf ancestor to obtain the blood from the giant rhino's heart and let it merge into the bodies of the tribe members. This consumed a huge amount of energy, which is why she vomited blood and fainted.

But don't worry, this won't affect Wu's health. Once his energy is restored, he'll be well again."

Sang Tian's eyes narrowed.

"how long it takes?"

"Usually it takes half a month, but this time it's unusual. The witch has used an incalculable amount of energy. It will take at least a month."

Suddenly it was like an epiphany.

It turned out to be the case.

She had actually always been puzzled. Since the witch could control such a giant beast, then controlling the small beasts would naturally be a piece of cake. But why did the male members of the tribe still risk their lives to hunt?

Now the case is solved.

How could a witch possibly have enough energy to sustain such an expenditure?

However, Sang Tian still had doubts in her heart.

Is it really harmless to the body, and will the body be as good as before once the energy is restored?

Sang Tian was standing so close that she could clearly see that the witch spat out a mouthful of black blood...

How can it be harmless to the body?

Sang Tian didn't have time to think too much.

Cang pulled her down from the altar, and the tribesmen began to complete the ritual of "sprouting, growing, blooming and bearing fruit" under the leadership of Lei.

For this "germination" process, Lei and Wu chose jujube tree seeds.

It is quite a coincidence that in traditional Chinese culture, "dates" have always been a symbol of giving birth to noble sons.

This is a good sign.

The site for planting these seedlings is on a sunny slope five minutes away from the peach and apricot orchard.

This sunny slope has an open terrain, good drainage conditions, strong soil permeability and good ventilation performance.

Lei carefully selected large, healthy, pest-free, and disease-free jujube pits, the outer cores of which had been cracked, leaving only the seeds.

And the seeds have been soaked by thunder overnight.

The tribesmen also did some simple work on this sunny slope yesterday, digging and loosening the soil and spreading it with wood ash and animal manure. Now the soil fertility is guaranteed.

There were about forty newlyweds, and the tribesmen would plant forty date trees for them.

Soon, several tribesmen buried the seeds, covered them with a thin layer of soil, and applied fertilizer again.

Finally, Lei took over a large clay pot.

This pottery jar... seems to be the one used to collect the giant rhino's heart blood a few days ago.

Lei poured out the bright red liquid from the pottery jar and watered the jujube tree seeds that had just been buried.

Lei watered them one by one personally.

At first, Sang Tian was just curious about why he was doing this, but he didn't think there was anything special about it. It wasn't until he was watering the last seed that Sang Tian accidentally glanced over and saw that the first date tree seed... had... sprouted!

There is no problem with the soil, fertilizer or seeds of this land.

The only thing that couldn't be explained was the giant rhino's heart blood that was poured out by the thunder.

After a day of shock, Sang Tian had developed some resilience. She simply widened her eyes and raised her eyebrows, her heart filled with shock. Her expression didn't reveal anything.

Afterwards, Lei continued to "grow" on this sunny slope.

This time we chose chestnut saplings.

Chestnut trees are mostly planted by transplanting seedlings.

At this moment, there are about forty chestnut saplings, each one meter tall, that Lei and his tribesmen dug out from the chestnut forest.

He dug holes and planted them, then watered the saplings himself.

Sang Tian couldn't even control her expression at this moment, because she saw with her own eyes that the saplings Lei had watered were growing at a visible speed. The trunk gradually grew thicker and taller, and the branches slowly stretched out...

Sang Tian swallowed unconsciously. Was growing up... so fantastical?
