The geographical location of the Big Bear Tribe is very good.
Back then, the previous priest led the wandering people of the Big Bear Tribe for a long time before they found such a valley to settle down. This valley can block the attacks of large dinosaurs. There are dense vegetation and rivers nearby and abundant food, making it a very suitable place to live.
However, there is no salt here, but for the Big Bear Tribe at that time, this was nothing, as they did not eat much salt before.
What's more, the priest quickly sent people with food and some other things to exchange for salt in the direction he pointed out.
Later, they really found a tribe and exchanged salt for it. After that, they went to exchange salt every spring. Sometimes the salt was not enough, so they would go to exchange it again in the autumn.
Now everyone is very happy to hear that the salt exchange team has returned.
“I wonder how much salt I got in exchange this time!”
"I also want to join the salt exchange team and go out and have a look!"
"I don't want to go. I heard there are a lot of scary dinosaurs out there."
…
The people in the hunting team talked a lot and at the same time quickened their pace to meet up with the salt exchanging team.
They were all in high spirits, but after seeing the salt-changing team, their faces didn't look so good.
The salt-changing team looked very embarrassed.
When the salt-exchanging team set out, there were a total of fifty people, both men and women. Among them were very powerful warriors in the tribe, as well as very small animal-like people in the tribe. Although the very small animal-like people had no fighting power, they could hide themselves and survive at certain times.
For example, there is a member of the Salt Changing Team who is a mole in beast form. Not only is he small in beast form, but his human form is also very weak. When hunting, it is difficult for him to play any other role except to ambush in beast form in advance and suddenly change into human form to scare the prey. But he also has advantages - after he changes into beast form, many dangerous carnivorous dinosaurs will ignore him. As for snakes or lizards that can swallow him in beast form in one gulp, they will not provoke him in human form.
After he transformed into beast form, the energy he consumed was very little.
In the wild, he can sometimes live longer like this.
But now, the carefully selected salt-changing team of fifty people has only twenty or so people left, and each of them is injured.
Seeing Xiong He and the others, the salt exchange team was very excited. Many of them had tears in their eyes. The leader choked up and said, "Chief..."
"Are you in danger?" Xiong He asked worriedly.
The people from the salt changing team nodded repeatedly and were about to say something when one of them, who was being supported by the people next to him, suddenly fell to the ground.
Kumano had already noticed that something was wrong with these people, and he also noticed the ugly expression on that person's face. Without thinking, he caught the person who fell, and then he found that the person's body was burning hot.
"Chief, he has a fever!" Kumano was a little anxious.
"Let's go back immediately!" Xiong He said.
The members of the salt-exchanging team were carrying some things, so Xiong He asked the members of the hunting team to help them carry the things, and also asked the members of the hunting team to carry the injured members of the salt-exchanging team on their backs and run back to the tribe.
Kumano was running in the front.
Since he didn't catch any prey today, his energy consumption wasn't very high. Plus, he had a full meal last night and ate ten kilograms of meat in the morning, so he was very energetic!
Since Xiong Ye was walking so fast, Xiong He naturally wouldn't delay. He didn't bother to ask questions and took his people back to the tribe first.
Shi Li followed behind, somewhat unhappy.
Kumano completely ignored him again today and was now running with someone else in his arms, which made him a little uncomfortable.
At the same time, everything in front of him was a little different from his impression.
As far as he could remember, he and Kumano were a group that went hunting that day. They couldn't catch any prey, so they went a little further away. When they returned to the tribe, the salt-exchanging team had already returned.
The person that Kumano is holding now had already died at that time. Kumano was very sad at that time, and the atmosphere in the tribe was not very good. Later, it was the joy of the partner ceremony held by him and Kumano that dispelled the haze that shrouded the tribe.
Because of his rebirth, many things have changed now, but fortunately, it’s not a big deal.
Shi Li followed Xiong Ye and ran towards the tribe.
When they returned to the tribe, the gathering team had just returned and were sorting plants in the valley, and the priest was also drying some plants.
"Grandpa Priest, he has a fever, please help him!" Kumano shouted anxiously, carrying the person to the priest.
"Put him down quickly," the priest said immediately.
Kumano immediately put the injured man on the ground, and the priest came to the man and examined him.
This was a young man in his twenties. He had a big frame but not much flesh on his body. There were several deep and long wounds on his back and stomach. Although he was lucky enough not to have his intestines pierced or his stomach rotted, the areas around the wounds had already begun to rot and gave off a foul smell. His body was hot, his lips were very white, and he looked extremely weak.
"Go to my cave and get a glass of water and some salt." The priest looked at Kumano.
Kumano quickly came back with water and salt. The priest added some salt to the water, and when the salt melted, he poured it on the patient and washed his wounds with the salt water.
Perhaps because of the extreme pain, the unconscious patient began to twitch.
Even though Zhou Ji had seen many deaths and had died once himself, he still felt a little pain when he saw this scene. After the priest used half a cup of salt water to wash the man's wound, he added water to the remaining salt water and fed it to the man.
"Beast God...what happened to you?" The priest asked after doing all this, and then took out some herbs he had picked today, added a little salt, then put them in a stone bowl, beat them into mud with a stone stick, and applied it to the patient's wound.
Zhou Ji was watching from the side and felt a little sympathy for the patient.
Salt can kill bacteria, but sprinkling salt on a wound is not a pleasant thing... Just as Zhou Ji was thinking this, he noticed that Kumano was very sad.
When Shi Li changed his mind before, Xiong Ye was very sad. Now that this man is going to die, Xiong Ye is also very sad, and his eyes are red.
Kumano was indeed very sad. He was able to detect that something was wrong with this man in a very short time and accurately caught him because this man was his half-brother.
His father was very powerful and was very popular among the women in the tribe when he was young. He had children with many women. In addition to him, his father had eight other children.
Of these people, two did not grow up, one died a few years ago, and now he has five half-siblings.
Among these five people, Kumano has a good relationship with the man in front of him and Toratsuki, but his relationship with the remaining three is not so good. When his father was still alive, there was a certain competitive relationship among them. Those people did not like him and even bullied him.
After his father died, those people stopped bullying him, but the two sides had no contact with each other. In fact, he and Hu Yue had no contact in the early years, but Hu Yue had never bullied him. But the person in front of him... This person lived with him in a collective living area because his mother died young, and sometimes took care of him, and he was very grateful.
At this moment, Kumano wanted to ask the priest what happened to this man, but he didn't dare to ask... He had studied with the priest for a period of time, so he naturally knew how serious this man's injuries were.
He could only pour the water and feed it to him slowly.
Seeing this, Zhou Ji used his mental power to observe the dying orc.
This orc has a high fever and is really going to die. There is also a white crystal core in his body, which is now almost disintegrating and energy is leaking out of it.
Zhou Ji came and sat down next to Kumano, using his mental power to control the energy and let it return to the body of the dying orc.
The dissipation of energy did not continue, but this was very depleting of mental strength... Zhou Ji continued as a way of exercising his mental strength, and even took the time to stuff a piece of fruit into the mouth of the person lying down.
The person lying there must be in great need of food - he is so thin, he must be hungry!
Xiong Ye looked at Zhou Ji with gratitude. Although he didn’t know why Zhou Ji did this, it was well-intentioned after all.
While Zhou Ji was using his mental power to prevent the patient's death, on the other side, the members of the salt changing team were receiving treatment from the priest and telling their experiences.
The tribe where the salt exchanging team went to exchange salt was called Qingshan Tribe.
The Qingshan tribe does not produce salt. Their salt is exchanged from another tribe, and then sold to others at a higher price.
They are very kind, so many tribes like the Big Bear Tribe would exchange salt with them.
But this time, when the salt exchange team went to Qingshan Tribe, they discovered that Qingshan Tribe had been occupied by another tribe!
If the salt-exchanging team had not been alert and discovered something was wrong in advance, they might even have been killed by those who occupied the Qingshan tribe and had their belongings stolen!
However, even though they were more alert, they still experienced a fierce battle. The people who occupied the Qingshan tribe killed more than a dozen people and robbed them of some of the food and specialties they brought to exchange for salt.
Not only did they not get any salt, but they also lost people and things. When the captain of the salt-exchanging team, Xiong Qi, was in despair, he was lucky enough to find another tribe near the Qingshan tribe, and that tribe agreed to exchange some salt for them.
The amount of change is very small.
"On the way back, we encountered a huge dinosaur again, and several people were eaten." Xiong Qi said in a muffled voice. As the captain of the salt exchange team, he was also seriously injured, but fortunately his life was not in danger.
"It's good that you're back. The Beast God will bless you." said the priest.
"Grandpa Priest, how is Niu Er?" Kumano asked at this time. His half-brother's animal form was a bull, and because he was the second child born to his mother, he was named Niu Er.
"Kumano...the Beast God will bless him!" the priest sighed.
What the priest said actually meant that it would be very difficult to save Niu Er.
Everyone in the tribe knew this, and everyone fell silent for a moment.
Xiong Ye was also in a bad mood. He subconsciously looked around and saw Shi Li first. He turned his head and looked at Zhou Ji beside him: "Zhou Ji, shall we take him to our cave?"
"Hmm?" Zhou Ji came back to his senses. His mental power was almost used up. Fortunately, it was not completely fruitless. The crystal core in the body of the dying man finally stopped disintegrating, and he even opened his eyes.
"He's awake!" Xiong Ye was surprised and happy, and grabbed Zhou Ji's hand: "He's awake!" The person who didn't wake up even after being poured with salt water is now awake!
"Yeah." Zhou Ji responded. He had figured out some new ways to use his mental power.
Shi Li, who was standing not far away, frowned when he saw this scene.
When Xiong Ye invited Zhou Ji to live with him, he was very angry, but then he thought that Zhou Ji was very stupid and weak, and it was impossible for Xiong Ye to look down on Zhou Ji, so he felt relieved.
As a result, after just a few days, Kumano and Zhou Ji became so close!
