Chapter 278 First Strike
Chapter 278 First Strike
She has been exposed to herbs with her father since she was a child, so this basic knowledge of herbs is not difficult for her.
Moreover, after interacting with Jiang Luoluo, Xi has become quite interested in these things. She can't say she likes them yet, but she does prefer daily tasks that don't involve too much combat to hunting and fighting.
Moreover, Xi is young enough that she has the resources to try and fail. If she later finds that she doesn't like doing this kind of thing, it's perfectly fine to change it later.
More than anything else, what Jiang Luoluo cares about is that she will be 10 years old after this snow season and will soon officially become a member of Xiaoshishan.
They will also be officially joining the group training.
Of course, for most ten-year-old children in the tribe, it is proper to wait until around the time of the Great Beast Season, or after the sacrificial ceremony, before going to the small stone mountain for training.
But Jiang Luoluo had already been training on Xiaoshishan for a long time beforehand.
Given that her size far exceeds that of her peers, she should be treated as an official member of Little Stone Mountain after the snow season, instead of having to go through any further procedures and waiting until the Great Beast Season ritual is over.
As for why it's necessary to confirm whether she's officially a member of Little Stone Mountain... well, it's because Jiang Luoluo needs to integrate into the group!
No longer relying on Brown's care, he receives individual training every day.
After Jiang Luoluo entered Xiaoshishan as a "formal member," she had to learn and train according to the rules of Xiaoshishan, and fight and compete with other children.
Instead of being pampered and indulged by other older children like this.
Not to mention that Jiang Luoluo is a star in the tribe and has always been in the spotlight. Unlike other children, she doesn't have the opportunity to hide herself and develop quietly.
The moment she appears, she becomes the focus of all the children's attention.
Surprisingly, Jiang Luoluo wasn't nervous at all; instead, she was full of anticipation. She only felt a restless energy in her body for the challenges ahead, without any fear or worry.
Jiang Luoluo thought that the blood in her body probably yearned for battle and adventure.
Of course, as Jiang Luoluo turned ten, more places on Silver Peak Mountain opened their doors to her.
Unlike before, when she could only move around in a fixed area on the mountain, Jiang Luoluo can now try to enter the nearby forest if she is accompanied by an adult.
Although it's just at the foot of the mountain, and there's still some distance to the actual entrance to the Taz Forest, with so many trees, how can it not be considered a forest?
Jiang Luoluo was full of anticipation. Not long after the snow season ended, she put on thick clothes and went to Xiaoshishan to check the situation.
At this time of year, there are usually very few children on Little Stone Mountain. Only a dozen or twenty children with calm and determined personalities can suppress their fatigue, overcome the cold, and come to Little Stone Mountain for training.
But as soon as Jiang Luoluo arrived, the news spread and the number of children doubled the next day, and by the third day, more than half of them had arrived.
On the fifth day, Jiang Luoluo saw You and her group of playmates of the same age on Little Stone Mountain, as well as Meng and his group of companions. Even Nan and his group of subordinates had arrived at Little Stone Mountain ahead of time.
Not only was Jiang Luoluo stunned, but He Ye had never experienced a scene where children "start school early".
However, now that the number of participants has been reached, it is indeed time to start the course.
Although the weather was still very cold and the children still had to wear thick clothes, the brown-clad children were not given time to get used to it.
"Go ahead and play freely." Brown waved his hand, pointing to a pile of large stones that had been moved in yesterday, and told all the children to move around freely.
The so-called free play is to let these children grab stones of different sizes according to their own strength, with the larger stones being the ones located in the middle.
The more they represent the children's status on the small rocky hill, the more significant they become.
Jiang Luoluo had already familiarized herself with the weight of the stones on the mountaintop a few days prior, and had a sufficient understanding of her own strength, knowing which location—the largest stone—was the one she could snatch.
As soon as Jiang Luoluo reached the large rock in the middle, she saw her opponent.
South, along with a 14-year-old and a 13-year-old.
Children on Little Stone Mountain usually start learning hunting and other skills with their parents at the age of 14, with some starting as early as 13. Very few continue training on Little Stone Mountain.
However, some will continue to linger on Little Stone Mountain because their parents are busy before and after the snow season, or perhaps because they weren't strong enough before and couldn't take the top spot on Little Stone Mountain.
So I wanted to take advantage of the fact that my peers weren't around and have some fun being the "boss" for a couple of days.
— You could also call it bullying noobs.
