Chapter 137: Chapter 137 New Discovery
Su Tang stepped forward and asked softly, "What’s wrong?"
Huang Guo immediately voiced her dissatisfaction, "Tangtang, look at them! You clearly told them to pick mushrooms, but they picked a bunch of unknown fruits instead!"
The young females of the Weasel Clan stood huddled together, not daring to respond to Huang Guo’s words.
Seeing this, Aunt Hongguo frowned slightly and sternly said to Huang Guo, "All right, we still have time. They will be part of our tribe in the future. Be mindful of the way you speak!"
Hearing Aunt Hongguo’s lecture, Huang Guo was deeply dissatisfied!
It was obviously these Weasel Clan females’ fault. Why was Aunt Hongguo blaming her?
She looked at Su Tang with a wronged face, "Tangtang, look at them~"
Su Tang helplessly smiled and shook her head. First, she reassured the almost furious Huang Guo, "All right, don’t get angry now. They must have a reason for not picking the mushrooms. What Aunt Hongguo said was not wrong. They are going to be part of our tribe, don’t be so fierce~"
Huang Guo pouted, her voice noticeably weaker, "I wasn’t fierce, I just raised my voice a little."
Su Tang didn’t speak. She smiled friendly at the female members of the Weasel Clan. When she looked at the baskets behind them, she discovered two very surprising things.
"Sweet potatoes? Potatoes?"
She quickly picked up the enormous fruit from the basket and examined it closely. It was indeed the sweet potato from her memory.
Then she looked back at the Weasel Clan’s females who were only a bit taller than herself and felt a strong sense of affinity, "Where did you pick these? Are there more?"
A female who seemed to be even thinner than Su Tang stepped forward and softly said, "Maiden, we did not intentionally avoid picking the mushrooms. These are Sweet Earth Fruits. They can be preserved until winter. Back in our tribe, we ate these and Earth Fruits during winter!"
As she spoke, she handed over a potato the size of a coconut.
Su Tang nodded excitedly, "Yes, that’s right! These are sweet potatoes and potatoes! So, you call them Sweet Earth Fruits and Earth Fruits?"
The females of the Weasel Clan nodded in agreement.
Su Tang’s attention was then drawn to another basket filled with black fruits.
These fruits were not big, just about half the size of Su Tang’s fist. The hard, tough shell didn’t remind her of anything from her memory.
She asked with some confusion, "What are these?"
A female member from the Weasel Clan took one and forcefully tore it in half. The fruit split open, revealing a white pulp inside.
"This is Soft Fruit. Our tribe discovered it just last winter. Although it doesn’t have much of a taste, you won’t feel hungry after you eat it and drink some water."
Su Tang curiously stretched out her finger and pressed down on the white flesh. It left a shallow impression that quickly bounced back.
Su Tang’s eyes lit up. She took the white fruit pulp out of the shell and began kneading it in her hand.
The soft and smooth texture was elastic, odorless, and faintly released a refreshing fragrance!
This! Isn’t this just like dough!
Su Tang could hardly resist bursting into ecstatic laughter!
Unable to contain her excitement, her breathing became rapid. Clutching the female Weasel’s shoulder, her eyes gleamed, "Where did you pick these Soft Fruits? Quickly take me to see! And the Sweet Earth Fruits and Earth Fruits! We need to gather more!"
