After a shipwreck, Li Qing arrives in a primordial world where dinosaurs, ferocious beasts, and humans coexist.
The story... begins here!
This incident made the hunting team lose their will to rest. Even though they were tired and thirsty, they had no choice but to continue their journey.
On the way, many people were still shaken by their discovery and were amazed that the man-eating flower looked just like a tree, which they hadn't noticed when they sat down to rest.
Along the way, the hunting party whispered about what had just happened. Chu, who was walking ahead, grew impatient and turned around, saying, "Keep quiet! We still have a long way to go! Aren't you thirsty? Stop talking!"
As soon as Chu finished speaking, the discussion in the hunting party quieted down a bit. Chu cursed again and continued on his way.
Such a state of rushing is extremely mentally taxing. The hunting team not only had to reach the place mentioned by the shaman as quickly as possible, but also had to be careful around them, looking for any dangers. The man-eating flower that was as tall as a tree, and the pig-eating ants they had encountered earlier, had left a very deep impression on them. They were afraid that they might encounter such seemingly simple but actually deadly creatures again on the way.
It's not fair to blame the hunting team for being inexperienced or timid. They rarely take this route normally, but today they had no choice because they couldn't find any prey at Moonstone. And this route is indeed much more dangerous than the road to Moonstone.
Li Qing remained in the middle of the group, looking around cautiously and curiously. Everything was new and unknown to him. There were many novel flowers he had never seen before, as well as common flowers that he could not even see in botanical gardens, growing large and lush.
Thump!
The ground suddenly shook.
At first, Li Qing thought it was an earthquake or a volcanic eruption, since such things were not uncommon in primitive times. But then he heard that the ground was shaking in a rhythmic, intermittent manner, which meant that it was not an earthquake at all, but the sound of some huge creature walking, and it sounded like it was walking towards them!
What is it this time?
Li Qing gradually became wary.
The members of the hunting party, under great pressure, took out their weapons and prepared for battle.
"Even if a whole hunting party went together, they probably wouldn't be able to scratch this enormous creature."
Li Qing had some doubts.
"calm!"
Li's voice came through.
Li pointed upwards with her finger.
"It was harmless; it was a very gentle dinosaur."
Hearing Li's words, Li Qing also looked up. He was puzzled. Judging from the footsteps, the dinosaur was obviously still a long distance away from him. How could Li see the dinosaur from such a distance, through the thick branches and leaves?
"My God, no wonder... it's Liang Long!"
Li Qing exclaimed in surprise.
Diplodocus is the largest known dinosaur. A normal adult Diplodocus can weigh close to ten tons. It is also one of the easiest dinosaurs to identify. The Diplodocus that Li Qing saw looked very strong, with a neck that was an astonishing eight meters long. Compared to ordinary Diplodocus, its neck was already very long.
However, as Li said, although Diplodocus looks very big, it was a herbivorous dinosaur with a mild temperament, and to put it bluntly... despite its size, it was actually one of the herbivorous dinosaurs that carnivorous dinosaurs liked to hunt the most.
Li Qing looked at the Brachiosaurus and was deeply shocked. This was the first time he had seen a creature several times larger than himself since he came into this world. It also made Li Qing realize how insignificant humans are in the face of nature.
Li: "Never mind it, let's keep going."
The hunting party recognized the Brachiosaurus, so when they realized that the loud noise they had just heard was from a Brachiosaurus, they all breathed a sigh of relief and continued to follow behind Li.
"Wait a minute!" Li Qing shouted. "Don't rush, let's follow it, maybe we can find a water source!"
Brachiosaurus was an animal that lived near water and on plains. Its huge body made it very dependent on water every day and it could not survive in dense forests.
Most of the time, they like to live and play in places with water, making them their home. As for the Brachiosaurus seen in the dense forest, although we don't know why it appeared here, if we follow it, we might find a lake if we're lucky. This could provide the Red Flower Tribe with a new water source and solve another big problem.
Everyone in the hunting party was thirsty, and upon hearing this, they all looked towards Li and Chu.
"Should we follow it? We're so thirsty, we can't stand not drinking water!"
"We promise that as long as we are given enough to drink, we will set off immediately without resting for a moment!"
“Yes, Li, just agree. We are really thirsty. In this state, even if we get to the place you mentioned, we won’t have the strength to hunt for food.”
Li frowned, neither agreeing nor denying; he was thinking.
This went against his original intention, but he couldn't completely ignore the hunting team's request. Even he was thirsty after walking for so long under the blazing sun. He looked at Chu, about to ask for his opinion, when Chu chuckled and said, "It's fine to do as they say. Our tribe is short of water too. After we bring back the prey from this hunt, we'll set off again with more people to find water. If we actually find water by following this Brachiosaurus, it will save us some effort, hehe."
Li: "..."
Chu continued to laugh heartily, pointing in the direction Liang Long had gone, and said, "Besides, we're going to that place anyway, so let's just consider it as going the same way."
The path Liang Long took was only about fifteen degrees different from where Li Qing and the others were currently located, so overall, it wasn't that different.
After a moment of silence, Li finally compromised and said, "Alright, we'll follow it and see. But if the place it goes to is too far from where we're going, then we'll stick to our original mission."
Li said solemnly, "The tribe hasn't had a full meal in a long time. Everyone's food rations are very limited. We still have plenty of water, but the food problem is the one we must solve right now! At the rate we ate last night, we'll run out of food in three days at most!"
"No problem, we'll definitely do whatever you say!"
"Let's go, let's go. With this Lianglong leading the way, at least there's some hope!"
Looking at the excited hunting party, Li added with some concern, "Don't forget to figure out what's most important. If we conserve the water, we can use it for about seven more days!"
Li's "Ha!" was drowned out by the excited cheers of the hunting party. Li took a deep breath, intending to raise his voice to calm them down and get them to listen to him, but Chu patted Li on the shoulder from the side, "It's okay, let them make a fuss. Many of them have never left the tribe before, so it's normal for them to be excited. We can't be too hasty."
