On Earth 30,000 years from now, spiritual energy is thin and difficult to cultivate, so Ming Huan's magic power recovers slowly.
But on Earth 30,000 years ago, Ming Huan could feel the tremendous spiritual power between heaven and earth by taking a deep breath.
He had suffered such a severe injury that it would have taken him 20 to 30 years to recover, but on a planet like this, he could recover to normal in just two or three weeks.
Soon, under Ming Huan's guidance, Simon gathered a wealth of spiritually potent herbs. After consuming them, Ming Huan curled up into a giant, furry black ball and began meditating, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and incorporating the energy of the herbs he had consumed. This meditation session required three days and three nights without interruption. While Ming Huan was recuperating, Simon used his hands and feet to climb a high tree and turn Light Blue over to bask in the sun.
Thin rays of sunlight filtered through, and the dust in the air danced in the beams. There was fresh air all around, and the whole world was so beautiful that it didn't seem real.
However, the dreamlike world only lasted for one day before it was broken and the reality of the world came immediately.
It was the next morning, and the first person to discover something unusual was Qianlan. Qianlan had climbed a tree to bask in the sun early in the morning, and was the first to discover that a group of unidentified creatures appeared about a thousand meters away from here, and they looked like they were coming with great force.
After Qianlan found out about this, she crawled down in a panic and went with Simon to drag Minghuan who was still meditating. However, Minghuan was as motionless as if he was dead, and only his weak breathing proved that he was still alive.
Simon was at a loss. He looked around and saw that there was no other good way except to use a wooden stick as a weapon.
Hopefully, those menacing creatures were just passing through.
About ten minutes later, strange noises came from all directions. Simon held the stick tightly and looked around, but found nothing.
With a whoosh, something broke through the dense forest and flew towards Simon.
Simon dodged and saw that it was a stone!
Then, a man emerged from the woods.
Humans are social animals. Once one person appears, there will be a second and a third. That group of menacing unknown creatures are humans!
Soon, the crowd surrounded Simon and Ming Huan. Qianlan simply turned into a Bluetooth headset and hung it around Simon's neck, pretending to be dead.
Simon looked at these fellows. They looked a little different from him, with protruding foreheads. They were genuine primitive people from the Upper Cave period 30,000 years ago!
Those primitive people wore Baker necklaces around their necks and had messy hair. Some wore animal skins to cover their bodies, some wore grass skirts, and some held stones, some held javelins, and some held ropes and nets.
They waved their weapons and made all kinds of strange noises, staring at Simon and the black beast beside Simon with excitement.
An hour later, Simon, the big cat Minghuan who was meditating, and Qianlan who was hanging on Simon's neck were all captured by this group of people as prey.
Ming Huan was put into a net by those primitive people and carried away by ten people.
Simon's hands were tied with a straw rope, and the other end of the rope was hung around Ming Huan's neck. He stumbled forward with the group of primitive people.
"Qianlan, is your translator not ready yet?" Simon asked in a low voice.
Qianlan claimed that he had downloaded the latest global language translation software, which could even automatically recognize alien languages. However, when faced with this group of primitive people, he spent more than an hour trying to figure it out.
"Jiligualaguga~!" A primitive man who was walking in front and looked like the leader turned around and said something to Simon.
Light Blue played dead, and Simon couldn't understand what the man was saying. He could only shrug his shoulders to indicate that he didn't understand. The leader stopped talking to Simon.
The group walked for about three hours and crossed a mountain before arriving at the tribe of these primitive people.
The tribe, built by the river, looked small, with only about two hundred people. The houses were particularly low, a cone-shaped structure rising from the ground, surrounded by a fence. Some women and children sat in the open space, some weaving nets, some cooking.
As soon as the group escorting Simon back from hunting returned, the children immediately rushed over to Ming Huan and tried to touch him one by one. Simon saw one child even secretly plucking the cat's fur and couldn't help but shout, "Children, don't touch it! It's dangerous!"
As a result, he himself didn't understand what he was saying, but the children understood it, made a face at Simon and ran away.
Light Blue finally began to take credit: "Master, Master, my translation system is ready. It translates instantly without any delay. The headphones and speaker are ready!"
Sure enough, the next second, Simon was able to understand what those primitive people were saying.
The leading man was reporting the hunting results to a young and strong woman, and also said that he had something important to discuss with the patriarch.
Soon, an old lady with a cane and a kind face walked out of a low house.
The leading man bowed respectfully to the old lady and said, "Chief!"
The clan leader still had a kind face, looking at the leading man with a smile: "Amu, I heard that you caught something new."
Amu said, "Yes, Chief, it's a black tiger we've never seen before. It looks like it can be tamed. If we can tame it and let it give birth to a few more cubs, then we'll have hope of defeating the group in the cave on top."
The old lady, the clan leader, nodded in appreciation: "Not bad, not bad, Amu, you are becoming more and more intelligent~!"
Amu smiled modestly, and the two began to flatter each other.
Light Blue immediately began to show off his knowledge: "Master! The clan leader is a woman! All the people in charge here are women! Do you know why?"
This boast was immediately exposed by Simon: "The Upper Cave Period was originally a matriarchal society. I passed junior high school history. Thank you!"
Suddenly, Amu and the tribe leader changed the subject: "Amu, why did you bring another man back?"
Amu lowered his head in shame.
The tribe leader said: "Winter is coming soon, and we don't have enough food here. If you bring back a woman, she can have children and add more people to the tribe. But you brought back a man... He looks delicate and can't hunt or have children, so he must eat more. We are poor and can't afford to support more men!"
Amu felt even more ashamed.
The tribe leader said: "Everyone is hungry. You have been out for so long. Since you are planning to tame the black tiger, you can't go out for nothing. Just clean up this useless man and eat him."
As the patriarch spoke, he licked his lips and smacked his lips. It looked like he hadn't eaten meat in a long time and was hungry.
Simon: We agreed that civilized tribes don’t eat humans!!!
Simon quickly shouted: "I will do a lot of things, don't eat me... Ugh!"
Simon's mouth was sealed with a piece of rag and his hands and feet were tied up. Two strong women used a stick to string his bound hands and feet together in the middle, and carried them towards the big pot set up by the river, talking as they walked.
"This skin is so white, it must be delicious!"
"That's right! The tiger they caught last time was terrible to eat. I heard that tiger meat is sour. This time, I can finally eat something delicious..."
Soon, Simon carried the two women to the river and washed them clean with his hands.
Simon felt that he had a psychological trauma towards women in his life.
He was tied to a wooden stake, waiting for the water to boil while thinking about what would happen next.
It's clear that humans are social animals. If I could live with these primitive people and have them help me, life would be much easier. I just heard from the tribe leader that winter is coming soon. While Ming Huan and I can survive in the wild, life will be very inconvenient. But...how can I successfully join them? The tribe leader just said that men can't have children, they eat too much and are difficult to raise. Obviously, he doesn't want me!
As he pondered this, a woman suddenly rushed toward him from the village, screaming and shouting. She was dancing like a madman, her upper body exposed, and uttering strange cries. But before she could reach Simon, she was restrained and dragged back. Everyone around him remained remarkably calm, as if they were already accustomed to this scene.
Simon found this scene eerily familiar! It was like a scene from a mental hospital.
The two women who were boiling water to cook Simon sighed and shook their heads, discussing what had just happened.
"Alas, the young patriarch has gone crazy again... If she hadn't been crazy, she would have led us to grow more food this year."
"Shh, stop talking! I heard the tribe leader's hair turned white overnight because of this. The witch doctor in the cave said it was an evil spirit possessing him! We need to sacrifice children!"
"Let's cook the stranger until he smells better. I hope the young patriarch will get better after drinking the human flesh soup."
Simon sighed helplessly.
A long time ago, when he was reading a book, he had seen the statement that "neurosis is a disease of civilization". At that time, he also wrote an article called "Do primitive people have neurosis?"
Now it seems that there are! They were everywhere 30,000 years ago!
Simon coughed and looked at the two burly women approaching him. "Don't eat me. I can heal... Let's make a deal. I'll heal your young patriarch, and you'll take me and my cat in for the winter."
