Xiong Ye wanted to wash his hair for a longer time, but Zhou Ji quickly helped him wash his hair: "Let's go back."
When the two of them returned to the tribe together, Xiong He and the others had also returned.
Xionghe's team caught quite a few prey this time, but the sizes were not as big as those caught by Xiongye. However, even so, everyone was still very satisfied.
Today is a rare bumper harvest and everyone is very happy. Those who were sad because of the death of their relatives in the salt exchanging team also smiled.
Groups of herbivorous dinosaurs would flee in panic when they first saw carnivorous dinosaurs, but when the carnivorous dinosaur hunted one of them and started eating, they would stop and then continue to eat leisurely around the carnivorous dinosaur.
The people of the Big Bear Tribe would not be like this, but in such an environment, they would not grieve for too long over the death of their tribesmen.
"Today, every soldier will be able to get several dozen kilograms of meat."
“Even those on the gathering team will definitely get a lot.”
"The armor of the Strange-Mouth Dragon should be able to be exchanged for a lot of salt!"
…
The people in the tribe were talking while cutting the dinosaurs apart, getting themselves covered in blood. Some even patted their chests to show others the blood on their bodies and told others how they hunted.
Among them is Xiong Bai.
Zhou Ji felt it was a bit offensive to see Xiong Bai, a grown girl, doing this.
Of course, others obviously don’t think so, and some men even prefer Xiongbai because of this.
In such an environment, the very clean Zhou Ji and the already washed Kumano looked out of place. Some people who originally wanted to greet Kumano excitedly and pat him on the shoulder were too embarrassed to attack him.
Only Xiong Qi came over and said, "Xiong Ye, you are really amazing today. You actually caught a strange-mouthed dragon! Also, you look very different, very unique!"
Xiong Ye felt a little embarrassed by the praise, while Zhou Ji was a little speechless - why did he feel that Xiong Qi had a tendency to develop into a flatterer?
Fortunately, Xiong He interrupted Xiong Qi's endless praise: "All of you go to the river and wash! What does it look like to be covered in blood? And those internal organs, wash them too! After washing, I will divide the meat!"
"Yes, Chief!" Everyone responded loudly and happily went to the river to wash.
Kumano and Zhou Ji put their recent catch into the cave - Kumano used himself as bait and caught several piranhas.
This kind of fish is called piranha, but it actually cannot eat people, after all, it is not very big.
However, they are very sensitive to the smell of blood. If someone goes into the water with wounds, they are likely to be surrounded by them and bitten severely.
Well...if someone is seriously injured and falls into the river, it would not be surprising if they were eaten up by them.
"This kind of piranha is quite delicious. Once when I went into the water to catch fish, I happened to have an injury on my leg. Several piranhas rushed towards me, and I caught them all and had a full meal!" Xiong Ye told Zhou Ji about his childhood. He was very hungry at that time, but he couldn't catch any fish. He was worried, but he didn't expect that a piranha would take the bait!
Later he figured out a good way to catch piranhas, which was to bathe in the river with the smell of blood.
It's a pity that there are fewer and fewer piranhas now...
Kumano spoke happily, as if this was a very interesting thing, but Zhou Ji felt a little distressed.
Kumano must have been very young at that time, and he was busy just to get a bite to eat...
After experiencing the end of the world, Zhou Ji actually always thought that the people in the tribe lived a pretty good life, but now, he began to feel pity for Xiong Ye.
Realizing this, Zhou Ji couldn't help but smile.
When Xiongye saw Zhou Ji smile, he became even happier and started talking about piranhas again. While talking, he returned to the valley and waited for the division of the meat.
As he was speaking, the priest called him, "Xiuno."
"Priest Grandpa, is there anything wrong?" Kumano asked.
"Something's going on." The priest asked, "What kind of herbs did you give Xiong Qi? Why is it so magical?"
Today, Xiong Qi has been praising Xiong Ye in various ways. The priest of course heard it and became curious: "Did you find the legendary beast god fruit?"
As the apprentice of the previous priest, the priest knew a lot about the outside world and also knew that there were some magical plants in this world, such as the Beast God Fruit.
It is said that the Beast God Fruit is a small red fruit. As long as you eat one, you can increase your strength and become the Beast King.
Although the priest had never seen such a thing, he believed everything the previous priest said and firmly believed that the Beast God Fruit existed in this world.
It is said that it was a gift from the Beast God to the orcs.
"No, how could I possibly have the Beast God Fruit?" Xiong Ye had heard the legend of the Beast God from the priest. He said, "What I gave Xiong Qi was a very common herb."
Kumano said this and looked at Zhou Ji.
Zhou Ji said: "It is actually a kind of herb that can make people sleep. When I was a child, I was very noisy, so my mother would give it to me."
"There are such herbs?" The priest was a little surprised.
"Yes." Zhou Ji said, "After taking this herb, you will sleep very soundly. If you sleep well, your body will be better... Xiong Ye and I have both taken it. Xiong Qi said that he couldn't sleep because of the pain, so I gave him some too."
The priest suddenly realized.
He had no way to treat Xiong Qi's injury. Seeing that Xiong Qi had recovered a lot after a night, he thought Xiong Ye had given him some treasure, but it turned out to be just some herbs that made him sleep... "What does this herb look like? Can you show it to me?"
"I gave all the remaining herbs to Xiong Qi." Zhou Ji said.
"I'll go ask him for it right away!" said the priest.
Zhou Ji naturally wouldn't stop him. After the priest left, he turned around and looked at Xiong Ye: "I'm sorry, I gave you this herb without your consent before..."
"Why are you saying sorry? You're doing this for my own good!" Xiong Ye didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhou Ji feeding him herbs: "No wonder I slept so well before! It turned out to be because of the herbs. It really makes sense that sleeping well brings good health. I've been in particularly good health recently. Should I get some more herbs to eat?"
"No need, you've been sleeping well even without eating recently." Zhou Ji said.
"That's true. I've always slept well, so I don't need to eat these." Xiong Ye was about to say that it was a bit of a waste for Zhou Ji to give him such herbs, but suddenly he remembered that when Shi Li wanted to break up with him, he was so uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep at first.
Later, Zhou Ji started to feed him, and he began to sleep very well.
Zhou Ji really was thinking about him all the time...Xiong Ye was a little touched.
Zhou Ji: The little bear is so easy to kidnap. Yes, even the priests in the tribe are so easy to deceive, let alone the little bear...
While Zhou Ji was talking to Xiong Ye, the priest had already found Xiong Qi and asked Xiong Qi for the herbs that Xiong Ye gave him.
Xiong Qi was very respectful to the priest, and quickly showed the herb to the priest, saying, "Priest, this must be a very precious herb with a very good effect."
The priest glanced at Xiong Qi and said, "Yes, this is a very precious herb that I have never seen before. God of Beasts, it is really very kind of you that Xiong Ye is willing to give it to you."
Having just eaten Kumano's honey, the priest didn't mind speaking well of Kumano in front of Xiongqi, so that Xiongqi would be more grateful to Kumano.
This is also good for Xiong Qi. Xiong Ye will most likely be the chief of the tribe in the future. If Xiong Qi looks down on Xiong Ye as before, it will be disadvantageous for him.
Xiong Qi was already very grateful to Xiong Ye, and he was even more grateful after hearing the priest's words.
Shi Li saw Xiong Qi walking as usual, but couldn't help but frowning.
He remembered that in his previous life, Xiong Qi was also injured when he came back from exchanging salt. Later, he didn't care about his injury and went hunting as usual. Then, he didn't know how, his whole body grew crooked, and his fighting ability was greatly reduced...
After Xiong Qi was disabled and Xiong He died, he was allowed to become the clan leader.
But now, why is Xiong Qi doing well?
He hit Xiong Qi's wound several times. Xiong Qi's injury should have been more serious than in his previous life!
Things changed, and all this made Shi Li a little anxious. At this time, Xiong Qi ran to talk to Niu Er.
Niu Er almost died but was rescued. He felt that he and Niu Er had a lot to talk about.
If Niu Er hadn't stayed in the cave all day today, he would have had a good talk with Niu Er a long time ago.
And during this conversation... Xiong Qi found out that the herbs he ate were also eaten by Niu Er.
Niu Er's injuries at that time were much more serious than his. His injuries would make him lose his combat effectiveness. At that time, Niu Er... everyone thought Niu Er would die.
As a result, he did not lose his fighting ability and Niu Er did not die.
All this must be because of Kumano, because of the herbs Kumano gave him.
Xiong Qi became even more grateful to Xiong Ye. After hearing what he said, Niu Er, who was already very grateful to Kumano, was moved to tears, but Niu Er was not very good at speaking, and could not praise Kumano everywhere like Xiong Qi did.
But even so, Niu Er has made up his mind that he must repay Kumano in the future.
Xiong Qi praised Xiong Ye for a while, and then Xiong He started to divide the meat.
Each warrior received a lot of meat, even Xiong Qi and Niu Er received a lot. Xiong He also said, "Take good care of your injuries. When you are well, you can continue to hunt."
Xiong Qi and Niu Er nodded repeatedly. They decided to have a full meal and a good sleep at night.
Their injuries seemed to heal while they slept.
It took Xiong He a long time to distribute the meat. Because the meat was distributed today, the things collected by the collection team were not divided up. They just cooked a big pot and let everyone eat as much as they wanted.
At this time, the leader of the collection team found an opportunity and said to Xiong He: "Chief, Zhou Ji was not serious about his work when he was in the collection team before, and today he simply didn't want to follow us to collect. He shouldn't be given food in this state."
Anyone who is unwilling to contribute to the tribe will be despised by the entire tribe! By then, maybe even Kumano will look down on Zhou Ji!
The head of the collection team wanted to see Zhou Ji's good show.
However……
Xiong He said, "I didn't share any food with Zhou Ji in the first place. When we shared the meat before, Zhou Ji often didn't come to me to get the meat, and today he even directly said he didn't want any."
Head of the collection team: “…” Can we still do this?
Xiong He added: "Xiong Ye told me about Zhou Ji. Zhou Ji has not awakened his beast form yet, so he is slow in everything he does and his health is not good. If he wants to participate in the gathering in the future, let him go. If he doesn't want to go, forget it... Anyway, Xiong Ye will take care of him."
"Chief, how can this be possible? There are rules in the tribe!" The head of the gathering team was dissatisfied.
"Why can't it be like this? It can always be like this. Wasn't it like this when Zhou Ji stayed in the cave all day and was stupid? But Zhou Ji was raised by his mother before, and now he is raised by Xiong Ye." Xiong He said: "It doesn't matter."
There are many people in the tribe who cannot work but keep getting food. In fact, Zhou Ji is not the only one. Compared with others, Zhou Ji is really great!
Head of the collection team: It’s really enviable!
Xiong Ye did mention the matter of Zhou Ji to Xiong He. The reason was that Zhou Ji said that he could not do too many collecting tasks and did not want to go collecting with them during the day.
Kumano actually does not approve of such things. He always thinks that no matter who you are, you should work hard to support yourself, otherwise you will be useless.
But when it came to Zhou Ji, he felt that Zhou Ji was so fair and tender, it would not be good to ask him to do hard work.
Zhou Ji eats very little and doesn't like dinosaur meat. He wouldn't even touch the scraps that Xiong He shared with the gathering team. In that case, it didn't matter if Zhou Ji didn't take the meat from the tribe...it would be better if he didn't go gathering.
Anyway, he will take care of Zhou Ji.
It was really easy to raise Zhou Ji. Shi Li had said before that he was very powerful and didn't need him to raise him, but in fact, the meat he gave Shi Li at that time was much more than the meat he gave Zhou Ji now.
Thinking of this, Kumano simply went to say hello to Xionghe.
However, despite doing so, Xiong Ye still said to Zhou Ji earnestly: "Zhou Ji, you still have to learn to deal with others. There are too many accidents in this world. If I have an accident one day..." In fact, Zhou Ji would know how to collect information, but he was afraid that Zhou Ji would not have a good relationship with the people in the tribe...
"Nothing will happen to you." Zhou Ji said firmly. It would be fine if Kumano was just hunting nearby, but if he went on a more dangerous mission like exchanging salt, he would definitely follow.
In addition, he will find ways to improve Kumano's strength.
When Xiong Ye heard Zhou Ji's words, he puffed out his chest proudly - Zhou Ji trusted him so much, he must not let Zhou Ji down in the future.
After dividing the meat, everyone else stayed in the valley to barbecue and eat, but Kumano and Zhou Ji returned to their cave.
Xiong Ye was going hunting today, and Zhou Ji was too lazy to collect firewood, so the two of them still had no firewood. However, the children in the tribe collected a lot and gave them to them, so they were not short of firewood.
After arriving at the cave, they lit a fire at the entrance. Zhou Ji started to make fish soup for himself, while Xiong Ye started to grill meat.
It is actually very inconvenient to roast things in a cave. Even if they light a fire on the platform at the entrance of the cave, smoke is bound to fill the cave. Sometimes a gust of wind will even fill the cave with smoke.
Before, because he had mental power, he was not greatly affected and Zhou Ji did not bother to care about it. But now he began to think about expanding the platform and renovating the cave.
There is also the issue of food. What they eat now is too monotonous. Zhou Ji thinks they can get something else to eat, such as trying to make some sauces or pickle some pickles or something like that.
There are many kinds of pickles, which are not only delicious, but also have a unique flavor when used to cook or steam meat.
Unfortunately, all of these require salt, but there is not enough salt in the tribe.
Zhou Ji originally didn't want to be in charge of things, but now he finds that there are quite a few things that he needs to worry about.
But there is no other way. If you want to live a good and comfortable life, you can't completely stop worrying...
Piranha is indeed delicious, but it is always boiled in water with no other seasoning except salt, so it tastes pretty ordinary.
Zhou Ji missed chili pepper a little, but unfortunately he couldn't find it around the tribe.
It was still early after dinner, so Zhou Ji listened to Xiong Ye talking about what happened today.
Xiong Ye talked a lot with great interest. After he finished talking about what happened to him today, he asked Zhou Ji: "What about you? What did you do today?"
"I just found some edible plants around the tribe." Zhou Ji said, and then took out a grass and fed it to Xiong Ye: "Eat it."
Xiong Ye ate it with some helplessness. Zhou Ji especially liked to feed him grass!
He didn't like the taste of grass, but it was Zhou Ji's gift from the heart, so he just ate it.
After Xiong Ye ate some grass, Zhou Ji let him go to sleep.
The grass he feeds Kumano contains energy. If Kumano goes to bed early, he can help him sort out the energy.
The two closed the door and went to sleep. Xiong Ye fell asleep quickly. Seeing this, Zhou Ji got up and helped him sort out the energy in his body.
As he sorted out his thoughts... Zhou Ji also had some ideas about how to let Kumano train this energy himself.
He did not want to destroy the food chain in this world - if all the orcs became powerful, the ecology of this planet might be destroyed.
But it doesn't matter if Kumano becomes strong.
Zhou Ji simply helped Xiong Ye comb his hair, then lay down on his bed and prepared to go to sleep.
However, he was awakened just as he fell asleep - a man came to the outside of the cave where he and Kumano lived.
Zhou Ji’s brows immediately frowned.
He was not used to having people around him, and that person's sudden appearance made him quite unhappy.
As his mental power spread out, Zhou Ji realized that the person who came was Shi Li. After Shi Li paused at the entrance of the cave, he immediately started knocking on the door: "Xiong Ye!"
Shi Li's voice was not loud, but Xiong Ye did not eat the tranquilizing grass, and Zhou Ji did not deliberately use his mental power to calm him... He woke up immediately: "Who?"
"It's me." Shi Li said.
Xiongye got up from the bed with a frown, opened the door and looked at Shili with dissatisfaction: "What are you doing here?" Why did Shili come here so late at night? It will wake Zhou Ji up!
"Xiuno, I'm sorry." Shi Li said.
Xiong Ye was still impatient: "Why are you telling me this?"
"Xiumano, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have regretted it and been with Langyin... In fact, it has always been you that I like. I only like you..." Shi Li's face was full of remorse.
If he had said this a few days earlier, perhaps Xiong Ye would have felt something, but now: "It's okay, I forgive you." He and Shi Li no longer have any relationship, and he has let it go now.
"Xiong Ye, I know you still have me in your heart. Are you still willing to be with me?" Shi Li looked at Xiong Ye excitedly.
"No, I want to become a partner with Zhou Ji." said Kumano.
"Zhou Ji is so weak, are you sure you want to be his partner?" Shi Li said, "Xiong Ye, I am the only one who is most suitable for you. We have been together for so long!"
"Speak a little more quietly..." Kumano was unhappy.
Shi Li did not lower his voice: "Xiong Ye, as long as you are with me, you will have supreme glory in the future, and you will not regret it!" As he said this, he wanted to hug Xiong Ye and kiss him.
This was what they often did in his memory.
But during this period... they have never been so close, not to mention that at this moment, Xiong Ye hates Shi Li very much.
Kumano was startled and subconsciously pushed hard.
The energy in his body had not yet been fully absorbed, and he used it unconsciously in this push, which actually pushed Shi Li backwards suddenly and caused him to fall off the narrow platform in front of his door.
Kumano was stunned.
Zhou Ji was very angry and was about to use his mental power to teach Shi Li a lesson: "..." He heard a "thump". Shi Li must have fallen pretty badly?
