I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 492 Prematurely Ripe Prickly Fruit

"Alright, then we'll take our leave."

After a night's rest, and having successfully merged and handed over ties with the Longclaw Clan, Lie Zhao, who was busy with clan affairs, did not delay and took the initiative to say goodbye.

Tree spirits never take separation too seriously, partly because they all live long lives and there is always a time for reunion after separation, but mainly because they are more focused on themselves.

It's not that the tree spirits are cold-hearted, but rather that their environment dictates that there are no rules or regulations about what anyone must do or how they must do it; everything comes from their own hearts.

That's why Lezhi found it strange when he saw how the Golden Armor Clan members interacted; they were too rule-abiding, which was very unlike the Tree Spirit Clan.

However, the Golden Armor Clan themselves did not think so. They were obviously enjoying themselves, including Lie Zhi, who occasionally did some outrageous things. He was also very comfortable in this system, probably because there was another side to him that he had not seen.

Regardless, even though Lezhi said she couldn't stand Lie Zhao and the others' rigid manner, she had to admit that they were always very responsible and the kind of friends you could trust with your back.

Having eaten and drunk their fill, Lezhi, with her high emotional intelligence, chose to smile and wave goodbye as they departed at the final farewell.

"Lezhi, see you at the clan assembly. You must come then." Liezhi returned an even bigger smile.

As if a nerve had been touched, Lezhi's eyes flashed, and her brow twitched involuntarily, but she did not respond.

However, Lie Zhi didn't care. He never thought that Le Zhi would miss the clan assembly. It was a grand event for the entire clan. If he missed it, he would have to wait another four years. What a pity.

Moreover, this event was hosted by the Biluo Clan, which is one of the most mysterious clans in the entire clan and has the least interaction with other clans.

The other is the Frost Spirit Clan.

Therefore, whenever it's the turn of these two clans to hold a clan assembly, the number of attendees is always the most complete, as no one wants to miss such a rare opportunity.

"Tsk, finally gone. The air feels so much fresher without those shells around, don't you think, Lezhi?" Nanfeng exaggeratedly fanned his nose with his hand, his disgust evident.

Although the two groups did not clash in front of Lezhi during their brief encounter over just one night, the occasional sparks flying between the team members as they furtively exchanged glances and engaged in furtive physical confrontations still gave him some clues.

Considering Lie Zhi's previous hints, Le Zhi already knew that the relationship between the two clans was irreconcilable, and the reason was simply that they were contradictory.

One is known for its high defense, covered in golden armor; the other is born with a sharp blade, excelling in high attack.

Both sides believe they are the strongest, so it's no wonder their relationship is bad.

Exchanging a glance with Lei Xiu and seeing certainty in his eyes, Le Zhi knew that her guess was basically correct.

Unaware that they were secretly chirping at him from behind, after seeing off the Golden Armor Clan, the Long Claw Clan group visibly became much more lively.

"Alright, let's go. We need to hurry, and we can't afford to linger on the road. I'll have to work hard these days." Nanfeng gave a heads-up, implying that no matter how capable Lezhi was, he was still a minor who needed protection.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Haha, okay, let's go."

"Oh……"

Nanfeng's call was met with enthusiastic support from the tribespeople, who cheered with raised arms. In a joyful atmosphere, they embarked on their journey once more.

…………

“Choo...choo choo…”

After traveling with the Longclaw Tribe for a day, Lezhi finally understood why they were responsible for protecting this plain.

In the thorny jungle, even with the aid of tools, other races would find it difficult to move an inch.

Not only are the thorns dense, but they also grow very fast. As soon as you cut one off, more new thorns sprout from the broken end. The best way is to go straight for the point and grab the thorn stem and pull it up.

Only the Longclaw Clan, with their sharp claws, can do this. Even the Golden Armor Clan, at most, are immune to thorns, but they cannot tear through brambles without tools.

Watching Nanfeng and his men clear a space large enough for several people to pass side by side in an instant, their claws swept across the area like autumn leaves in the wind. Yesterday's difficult journey seemed like a dream.

They traveled three times the distance of the previous day.

In the thicket of thorns, besides thorns, there are other plants, such as mushrooms and mosses, which can survive without much sunlight. Similarly, they also encounter many insects.

Most insects dare not attack them, after all, they can ignore thorns and look like they are not to be trifled with.

But there are always those who don't believe in bad luck. The Longclaws dealt with the thorns casually, and they became the food source for the next day.

When the journey was boring, Nanfeng would take the time to approach Lezhi and chatter on and on about anything worth talking about.

"Lezhi, look! This is black cumin, it has beautiful flowers, but you can only see them in the hot summer..."

"Ah, look there, those are thorny vine fruits. They've already borne fruit by now?" Muttering to himself, Nanfeng flashed forward and returned to the middle of the group before anyone could even see his movements.

"Here, have a taste. Prickly vine fruit is usually only available in the hot summer, but these must be early-ripening ones. They taste very good, we eat them often."

Nanfeng fed Lezhi so naturally, as if he were still a cub.

Lezhi, who was used to being fed fruit in the tribe, didn't think anything was wrong; it was just a few fruits.

The thorny vine fruit didn't look very big in Nanfeng's hand, but when Lezhi took it, he realized it was quite large. He could easily carry one in each hand, but carrying two was a bit difficult.

It's also possible that he has small hands.

The fruit skin is soft and needs to be peeled before eating. He tried to pry it off, but only managed to remove a small piece; the rest of the skin remained firmly attached to the flesh.

But even from that small opening, the fragrance that leaked out was enough to delight Lezhi; the taste was that of citrus fruits.

I just don't know how it tastes, whether it's on the sweeter or more sour side.

Watching Lezhi struggle with the thorny vine fruit with her little hands, without the blessing of the light, her hands were only a little pretty and a little fleshy, and she couldn't even peel the fruit skin.

Who would have thought that Lezhi once used these hands to tear apart insects?

"Let me try." Seeing that the thorny vine fruit peel was pitted and uneven, yet still impossible to eat, Lei Xiu couldn't stand it anymore and directly reached out to indicate that he could help.

He took the fruit, but instead of peeling it, he pinched both ends and snapped it open, revealing the fibrous flesh inside filled with juice.

It really does resemble the flesh of a citrus fruit.

"Thank you." Lei Xiu handed the first bite to Le Zhi, who didn't stand on ceremony. After thanking him, he opened his mouth wide and took a big bite of the juicy fruit.

The thin fibrous peel bursts in your mouth, and the juice flows down your throat, its sweet and sour taste carrying the unique fragrance of citrus, filling your entire oral cavity.

The taste is very similar to the famous jelly orange from his previous life, but the thorn vine fruit is purely wild, and has accumulated more flavor substances, so the taste is more outstanding. In addition to the fruity taste, there is also a hint of floral fragrance in the aftertaste. It is sweet and sour, with layers of flavor. Before he could even swallow one bite, he couldn't wait to open his mouth again.

"Don't rush, there's more over here." Sure enough, no child dislikes thorny vine fruit. Nanfeng smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits. Her eyes were already long and narrow, but now you couldn't even see her pupils.

He handed the remaining few fruits to Lei Xiu, then began looking around to see if there were any other early-ripening fruits.

Suddenly, as if he had seen something good, Nanfeng paused for a moment, then shot out like an arrow, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
