Chapter 123 Crossing the River



In the small tent, the two people hugged each other tightly, and the atmosphere was very good.

But Kumano felt a little uncomfortable: "Someone..."

"I used energy to block out the sound and smell. They can't hear or see anything." Zhou Ji said with a smile.

Xiong Ye suddenly became interested: "How did you isolate them?"

Zhou Ji blocked the man’s mouth again - at this time, he didn’t want to hear these words.

However, before the two could do anything, they heard someone outside saying, "The chief's tent has collapsed!"

"Clan leader, Zhou Ji, are you okay?" someone else asked.

Zhou Ji let go of Xiong Ye: "It's okay."

"We'll fix it for you right away!" someone else said.

Zhou Ji: “…No need.”

Zhou Ji insisted that he didn't need to help him repair the tent, and finally sent the man away.

After the people left, he kissed Xiong Ye again and said, "Go to sleep."

The two of them hugged each other and slept until dawn.

Zhou Ji woke up very early, but was too lazy to get up. Xiong Ye went out early in the morning, and no one knew where he went...

Zhou Ji didn't come out of his tent until he was hungry. Then he smelled a strong smell of barbecue - the people of the Big Bear Tribe had lit many bonfires on the beach and were barbecuing.

When he came out, someone immediately asked, "Zhou Ji, what do you want to eat?"

"Fish." Zhou Ji did not hesitate and looked at Hai Feng who was eating barbecue next to him: "I want to eat fish."

Haifeng ate the barbecue in his hand in one bite, then called the people from the Beach Tribe and asked them to go fishing.

It was still early, so Zhou Ji boiled some water to wash his face. Because the sun was strong at the seaside, he also made himself a straw hat out of something that looked like willow branches and put it on his head.

When he finished weaving, someone brought him fish and shrimp.

At the same time, Xiong Ye's voice also rang out: "Zhou Ji, look what I brought back for you!"

Zhou Ji raised his head and saw Kumano coming back carrying a very, very, very big snake.

"Titan Python!" the people of the Beach Tribe exclaimed.

It turns out that this snake is called Titanoboa... Zhou Ji looked over and saw a big snake about fifteen or sixteen meters long.

This snake should weigh... maybe one or two tons?

"Zhou Ji, I wanted to find something to eat for you, but I saw this big guy..." Kumano placed the big snake in front of Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji said: "It is very big...if you can't finish it in one go, you can make it into jerky."

"Yes!" Xiong Ye responded, and then said: "I'll go kill the snake and clean it up!"

As he spoke, he was about to leave with the snake in his hand. When he saw some fish placed next to Zhou Ji, he came back and picked up the fish, then lightly tapped his toes and floated away.

"The Beast King is so powerful..." Everyone present was stunned.

Kumano suddenly became the Beast King, and everyone's attitude towards him became unconsciously restrained. For example, Zhu Zhan could no longer treat Kumano the same way as before.

But Kumano is still the same as before.

He was the King of Beasts, catching snakes and killing fish, and helping Zhou Ji.

The same goes for Zhou Ji. He is a beast king-level warrior and the messenger of the Beast God, but he actually cooks his own food.

And the sea breeze... The respected sea god of this beach tribe, the extremely powerful beast king, was actually sitting directly on the beach, drooling at the food made by Zhou Ji.

These beast kings are too humble. Zhu Zhan wants to restrain himself, but he finds it difficult to do so.

Zhou Ji cooked seafood today, mainly steaming it. After all, the freshest seafood tastes best when steamed.

Of course, some seafood is suitable for stir-frying... Today someone picked up some conchs for him, and he asked someone to pick out the conch meat and stir-fry it.

Zhou Ji gave Hai Feng a small portion of the fried snail meat: "Try it."

"For me?" Haifeng was pleasantly surprised and took a piece of snail meat and ate it.

"Hiss..." He was touched by the spiciness: "What is this taste?"

"It's spicy." Zhou Ji picked up the snail meat with chopsticks and ate it with the steamed fish.

Seeing that Xiongye and Zhou Ji were eating happily, Haifeng took another bite.

Although the taste is a bit pungent, it is inexplicably delicious!

Haifeng was getting a little excited, and Zhou Ji gave him another steamed fish.

Grilled fish with sea breeze is a common dish, as is boiled fish, but none of these are as delicious as the steamed fish made by Zhou Ji with oil and a little seasoning.

He ate the whole steamed fish in just a few bites.

Seeing this, Zhou Ji gave another steamed fish with pickles.

Steamed fish sprinkled with pickles is also delicious.

Zhou Ji is a really nice person. He attacked Zhou Ji for no reason, but Zhou Ji didn't kill him and even gave him delicious food! I ate a lot of Haifeng, one mouthful after another.

After Haifeng finished eating, Zhou Ji said, "We are leaving here tomorrow...you come with us."

"Where are you going?" Haifeng asked.

"Go to the Orc Continent." Zhou Ji said. When he decided to go to the Orc Continent with Zhu Zhan, he also decided to bring Haifeng with him.

Sea Breeze is very big and can carry them across the river easily. That’s fine too. Once they reach the Orc Continent, Sea Breeze will also be a powerful fighting force.

Although his beast form is useless on land, doesn't he still have a human form?

"I don't want to go..." Haifeng said, and then he felt a powerful energy pressing down on him.

So he couldn't refuse...

Hai Feng accepted his fate and even started to think about the good things, such as following Zhou Ji and eating delicious food...

After dealing with Haifeng, Zhou Ji divided the team into two.

He decided to let the people who originally belonged to the Qingshan tribe or other tribes return to the Big Bear tribe with the salt they exchanged from the Beach Tribe. As for him, he would take the people from the Big Bear tribe in the team, as well as Zhu Zhan and others to take a look at the Orc Continent.

"Let Xiong He help manage the tribal affairs first, and then tell the priest that we will go back before winter." Zhou Ji said.

Those who wanted to take the salt back responded one after another.

Then, both sides began to separate and pack up their things.

In order to make life easier, Zhou Ji was going to the Orc Continent and brought a lot of pottery, some daily necessities, as well as the remaining barley and seasonings.

After all, they will be gone for a long time this time.

Early the next morning, the people of the Big Bear Tribe split into two teams and left the Beach Tribe.

When they left, the people of the Beach Tribe, led by their chief Haipang, said goodbye to them in tears.

The people of the Beach Tribe were really sad because the people of the Big Bear Tribe not only took away the goods they brought to exchange for salt, but also took away their salt and sea god.

It would have been fine if it was just the salt, but they actually took the sea god away!

How can the people of the Beach Tribe not cry?

Even the sea breeze had red eyes.

He has lived in the sea here for decades, and now he is reluctant to leave...

However, although they were sad, the people of the Big Bear Tribe were very excited.

The previous priest described the Orc Continent very beautifully. People like Zhu Zhan who came from the Orc Continent were also well-informed. They all wanted to see what the Orc Continent looked like.

Of course, the most excited ones are definitely Zhu Zhan and others.

They... can go back!

The crowd walked along the coastline and soon arrived at the mouth of the river.

Before, Zhou Ji had always been carried on Kumano's back, but he didn't have such treatment this time. Of course, it was not because Kumano was unwilling to carry him, but because... Kumano's beast form was too big now.

Now, Kumano's beast form is as tall as a modern three-story building. It is very inconvenient for him to move forward in beast form, and it is naturally impossible for him to carry Zhou Ji on his back.

But Zhou Ji didn't leave by himself either.

Kumano added two wooden poles to the chair that was previously placed on Kumano's back, and then Zhuzhan selected two people from his men to carry Zhou Ji away.

No, it cannot be said that Zhu Zhan chose this person from his own men. In fact, all of Zhu Zhan's men were vying to carry Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji is the king of beasts! They all want to get close to such a strong man!

If Haifeng and Kumano hadn't been unwilling to be carried, they would actually have been happy to carry Haifeng and Kumano up together.

The team was full of strong men, and with the intimidation of the Beast King, they moved forward very quickly, and in almost no time, they arrived at the river.

As soon as he approached the river, Zhou Ji saw a crocodile that was more than ten meters long crawling out from the riverside.

The more than ten-meter-long snake caught by Kumano before was already shocking, and now he actually saw a more than ten-meter-long crocodile... Zhou Ji subconsciously used his mental power to scan... Well, this more than ten-meter-long crocodile was not just one, but a group, but those crocodiles were all hidden under the water plants.

A large dinosaur came to the river to drink water. As it was drinking, a crocodile jumped out of the water with its mouth wide open, bit the dinosaur's neck and dragged it into the water.

The dinosaur wailed, but the crocodile did not let it go. Instead, it and other crocodiles bit its body and tore it into pieces to eat.

This is also the riverside. There are many powerful prehistoric beasts hidden in the river.

Zhou Ji finally understood why the pigs were afraid to cross the river before the battle.

Xiong Ye even said: "Zhu Zhan, you guys were lucky before."

"That's right." Zhu Zhan said, "Those who can reach the other side of the river alive are lucky." Sometimes the giant beasts in the river are all full and will ignore the "meat" floating past them, but this kind of thing is really rare, and it is definitely a stroke of luck to encounter it.

He was able to reach the other side alive at the cost of the lives of many of his subordinates. He even wondered if those who were chasing them had eaten his men and that was why they stopped chasing them.

"Let's go." Zhou Ji said, then looked towards the sea breeze.

Haifeng directly changed into a beast, then turned his head and ate two crocodiles - when he lived in this river, he had suffered from these crocodiles, and now when he saw these crocodiles, he wanted to eat them instead.

Haifeng chewed the crocodile and ate it in no time, then couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This crocodile is really not tasty...

Even though he couldn't eat the food Zhou Ji made recently, there were people from the Big Bear Tribe who cooked for him. He ate and drank well every day, and he couldn't stand eating raw food anymore.

Haifeng was sighing when he heard Zhou Ji say, "If you eat it directly like this, you'll be eating the... ahem, shit in other people's stomachs as well." Out of sympathy, Zhou Ji didn't say the word "shit".

But Haifeng still understood: After hearing what Zhou Ji said, he suddenly felt so disgusted!

As a result of the sea breeze, the giant crocodiles that were originally waiting leisurely for their prey on the shore all fled in all directions.

When the power of the sea breeze was fully released...the stronger marine creatures in the river also scattered and hid away.

Haifeng said, "Come on up!" Orcs generally don't want others to ride on them, but Haifeng has lived alone since he was a child and has no concept of this. In addition, he has been oppressed recently, so he didn't think it was wrong.

Zhou Ji and the others leisurely walked onto Haifeng's back, and when the one-eyed wolf following them wanted to get on, they refused: "Haifeng is the beast king, he can't carry people casually, you should just swim behind him."

One-eyed wolf: “…” Even if they can swim, they can’t outshine the sea breeze!

But since Zhou Ji said so, they really didn't dare to object... One of the One-Eyed Wolf's men quickly got a few pieces of wood and jumped into the river.

They cannot keep up with the sea breeze, but after the sea breeze releases its power and passes through the river, the horrible creatures in the river will surely stay away, and the river will be safe for the time being.

They wanted to take this opportunity to cross the river as quickly as possible.

The one-eyed wolf swam desperately.

When everyone was crossing the river, in the Beast Temple, Shi Li thought of the people of the Big Bear Tribe.

The people of the Big Bear Tribe should have been displaced by now.

The Beast God Festival is coming soon. As the Beast King, he will show up at the Beast God Festival in the Beast God Temple. The orcs worship it. As for the Big Bear Tribe... In his previous life, the Beast God Festival this year was even something that Kumano casually arranged.

None of them had a full meal.

The strong sense of superiority made Shi Li very happy.

He decided to wait for Kumano to suffer a little more, and then he would go find Kumano. By then, Kumano would definitely be willing to follow him!
