After leaving the tribe, the Big Bear tribe's team walked very quickly.
It is early spring now. The snow on the mountain has melted and gathered into a stream that flows slowly down from the top of the mountain. The moist soil is sticky and leaves a footprint where you step on it.
Many dinosaurs can lower their body temperature and hide in the winter, but now they have come out again and are chewing on tender branches to increase their weight.
After seeing those skinny dinosaurs, Kumano felt that he had lived too comfortably in the previous winter - after a winter, not only did he lose his head, but he even gained weight!
This has never happened before.
The reason for this has a lot to do with Zhou Ji - if Zhou Ji hadn't taught them how to grow barley and potatoes, even if their tribe got a lot of meat, it probably wouldn't be enough to eat.
The conditions for people to go out at this time were quite bad. They spent most of the day on the road, and only stopped in the evening to set up camp and prepare food.
On the first night, they stopped not far from the tribe.
Xiong Qi, who had gone to exchange salt with Xiong Ye before, approached Zhou Ji as soon as the team stopped and said, "Zhou Ji, is there anything I can help you with?"
Xiong Qi offered to help, and Zhou Ji did not refuse, so he asked him to wash the food and fetch water.
Then, the person who had gone to exchange salt with Kumano Shuji last time came and brought firewood to Zhouji.
Zhou Ji accepted them all and asked these people to help him build a sleeping shed and help him make a fire.
During the day, Zhou Ji did nothing but sit on Xiongye’s back. Now he looks like this... He is worthy of being the messenger of the Beast God, so noble!
Zhou Ji knew that his actions would make people jealous. Just when he was thinking about whether to restrain himself, he found that everyone in the team was looking at him in admiration. He also used his mental power to hear their conversation: "The messenger of the Beast God is indeed different from us."
"That lord looks so noble!"
"I heard that he is someone who can communicate with the Beast God. I also want to serve him."
"If I can touch him, can I also receive the blessing of the Beast God?"
…
Zhou Ji: “…” In this era, it’s really easy to be a charlatan!
Zhou Ji even wondered whether he should just pretend to be a god.
That beach tribe has a sea god who can use plant-based techniques to pretend he's an earth god or something?
Zhou Ji thought about it and quickly gave up.
This is quite troublesome, so forget it.
Everything Zhou Ji needed for cooking was prepared very quickly, and then he started cooking.
The previous winter, he and Kumano ate a lot, and in fact, all the food and seasonings stored in the house had been eaten up.
But he took advantage of the fact that Kumano wasn't noticing and secretly produced some of them, so he still had as many seasonings as necessary.
It was quite cold to travel in this weather, so after a little thought, Zhou Ji decided to make hot pot, and he made two at a time.
One is for him and Zhou Ji, and the other is for everyone else... It's a bit too little for a hundred people to eat one hotpot, but if you divide it carefully, everyone should be able to have a piece of meat and taste the soup.
Zhou Ji thought so, but he didn’t know that those people felt even more unbearable after taking a bite.
Before, when there was only barbecue, they didn’t think it was bad, but after eating the meat cooked with chili, they found the barbecue a little hard to swallow.
Those who finally joined the Qingshan tribe had tears in their eyes.
They had heard of hot pot a long time ago, but probably because of the lack of chili peppers in the tribe, they had never eaten it until now when they tasted it.
It’s really delicious!
How can there be such delicious food in this world!
They finally understood why Xiong Qi and others were so attentive. With such delicious food, they also wanted to help!
Didn’t you see that those who helped, Xiong Qi and the others, got an extra fist-sized piece of meat cooked in the hot pot of Xiong Ye and the others?
When people are out, they are particularly craving for delicious food, so after Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji had eaten and drunk their fill, the remaining hot pot soup between them was immediately divided up by others.
When night fell, Zhou Ji went into the tent early to sleep, but Xiong Ye was busy for a long time. After arranging everyone to keep watch, he quietly entered Zhou Ji's tent and was hugged by Zhou Ji.
The two of them snuggled up to each other in the small space, feeling quite warm.
The group's speed was considered fast, but it still took them more than ten days to reach the place that originally belonged to the Qingshan tribe.
A winter has passed and there is no change here. It is still a mess.
We rested here for one night and then continued on our journey.
It would take them at least another half a month to reach their destination.
The journey was easy for them in the previous ten days, but it was not so easy in the past half month, and the reason was that it rained.
It was a light rain, but it kept falling and caused them quite a bit of trouble. When Kumano was sleeping, he even began to turn into his original form. Then he found a relatively dry place, hugged Zhou Ji, covered himself with some animal skins and went to sleep.
Zhou Ji was still not used to not being able to hold Kumano in his arms...but it was also quite comfortable to sleep with the big bear.
Unfortunately, there were too many people in the team and we couldn't do anything.
Zhou Ji found that he had lost his moral integrity since coming to this world...
Zhu Zhan was a little depressed.
The atmosphere between Kumano and Zhou Ji was really good. He saw these two people being affectionate with each other every day and he really missed his woman.
I don't know what happened to his woman...
Zhu Zhan has always wanted to return to the Orc Continent, but he failed to build the boat that Zhou Ji asked for, so he couldn't go back.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhan looked at Xiongye and Zhou Ji again. Seeing the two of them sleeping in each other's arms, he couldn't help feeling lonely.
Also, he actually thought that Zhou Ji was not nice to Xiong Ye before... He was really overthinking it.
If Zhou Ji really didn't like Xiong Ye, he wouldn't be so close to him...
The drizzle continued for three days in a row. On the fourth day, it finally stopped and a little sunshine even appeared in the sky.
Taking advantage of the good weather, Kumano simply stopped by a small river and prepared to set up camp early so that everyone could relax a little.
Zhou Ji also agreed with this, and after everyone settled down, he immediately cooked a large pot of herbs, and then asked everyone in the team to come and drink a bowl.
Everyone in the Salt Changing Team: “…” They didn’t expect that in addition to being able to cook delicious food, Zhou Ji could also make such dark dishes!
What on earth is this? Can you eat it if it smells so bad?
"This is herbal medicine. It's something that can keep you from getting sick." Xiong Ye took a bowl of herbal medicine and drank it all in one gulp: "Everyone should eat it, quickly!"
After Kumano said this, everyone was no longer averse to eating this herb, and they all waited to eat it with bitter faces.
Then, where no one else could see, Kumano looked at Zhou Ji pitifully.
Zhou Ji secretly slipped him a candy.
Xiong Ye immediately became happy, took a net and went to the river: "Zhou Ji, I'll catch some fish for you."
Kumano ran away quickly, and Zhou Ji followed him, then saw Kumano standing by the river, catching fish.
In the previous winter, Kumano had caught fish for him to improve his diet, but not often. Now Zhou Ji really missed the taste of fish.
Kumano was really catching fish. Zhou Ji suddenly felt something and looked in one direction, but quickly retracted his gaze and turned his attention back to Kumano.
Not long after, someone suddenly came out from the woods on the other side of the river.
A team of seventeen people came out, led by a one-eyed woman. As soon as she arrived at the river, she saw Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye, and her lustful eyes fell on the two of them.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a handsome man in the wild forest, and he likes to be clean..." The woman's eyes were still on Kumano's fur skirt: "It looks like he has good capital."
Zhou Ji's face suddenly darkened - Xiong Ye was really too likable...
Just as he was thinking this, the woman looked at him again: "You are so cute!"
Zhou Ji was about to say something, but Xiong Ye had already blocked Zhou Ji's way and glared at the woman: "What are you looking at?"
The woman said, "Look at the men! Are you willing to stay with me for one night?"
"No! Please leave!" Kumano said immediately.
The woman sneered, disdain showing in her remaining eyes. She released her aura and said, "If you two sleep with me for one night, I can let your team go. Otherwise... you will have to leave the things you brought with you behind!"
Was this a robbery? Zhou Ji found it a little funny - the woman in front of him was about the same strength as Kumano, so she was not qualified to be robbed.
Kumano thought so too.
This person actually wanted to rob them and said such things...
Kumano immediately transformed into a beast and rushed to the other side of the river - he liked to speak with his fists!
As soon as Kumano's beast form appeared, the woman opposite was horrified.
An intermediate beast warrior could basically walk around freely in the Wild Forest. She thought it would be easy to deal with such a team, but she didn't expect...
The guy she liked, who she thought was just a good-looking guy, turned out to be a mid-level beast warrior. That would have been fine, but this guy's beast form was so big!
Not to mention that there are quite a few people not far away!
The one-eyed woman was flexible and wanted to escape immediately.
But Xiong Ye had already caught up. At the same time, Zhu Zhan's voice sounded hesitantly: "One-eyed wolf?"
