The ridgeback dragon slowly nibbled the plants in front of it, its spurred tail swinging leisurely.
Kumano first transformed into a human form and slowly approached it. When he was close to it, he lay in ambush. At this time, Xiong Bai had already reached the other side of the ridgeback dragon.
The two waited quietly for a while, and then Xiong Bai suddenly fell from the tree, scaring the ridgeback dragon.
The ridgeback dragon subconsciously ran towards Kumano, and Kumano suddenly changed into a beast form and rushed out.
The movement speed of the ridgeback dinosaur was far slower than that of the ornithopods. After seeing Kumano, it was too late to run away. Kumano first held it down, and then when it twisted its head and tail and struggled, he flipped it over with force.
Then, before the ridgeback dragon could turn over and escape, Hu Yue and Xiong Bai rushed over and attacked the weak spot in its abdomen.
The three of them worked together and quickly killed the ridgeback dragon.
A three-meter-long ridgeback dragon weighs about four hundred kilograms. Excluding the inedible scales and bones on its body, it would still weigh more than two hundred kilograms.
It was not convenient to carry such a big creature back directly, so the three of them simply used their claws to cut the ridgeback dragon in half as they knew best, and then turned into human forms and divided the meat equally. The meat that Kumano and Totsuki got was better, while the meat that Xiongbai got was less so.
Xiong Bai was already very satisfied with this. In fact, she did not contribute as much as Kumano and Totsuki.
After dividing the meat, only bones and hides were left - the skin of the ridgeback dragon was actually scales and was of little use, and the bones were troublesome to carry.
Xiong Ye said: "If you don't want these, just give them to me."
Hu Yue said, “Okay.”
Xiong Bai had even less objection and said, "Let me get it for you!" She knew what Kumano was going to do with these things. When she was a child, she had eaten from Kumano.
"No need, I can carry it." said Kumano.
He wrapped the meat and bones that were allocated to him in the skin of a ridgeback dragon, with the side with the bone spurs facing inwards. Then he changed into the form of a beast and ran back to the tribe carrying the large bag of things.
The smell of blood will attract carnivorous dinosaurs, so they have to go back as soon as possible!
Kumano turned into a beast form, but Hu Yue and Xiong Bai went back in human form. Hu Yue did so because it was difficult to carry things in beast form, and Xiong Bai went back to talk to Hu Yue.
The drizzle was still falling, falling on Kumano's body, but it couldn't wash away the bloody smell rooted in his long hair. However, Kumano himself liked this bloody smell and didn't care at all.
When the three of them arrived near the tribe, people immediately saw them, and their faces were full of envy.
What they brought back was all meat!
To the people in the tribe, food is the most precious and important thing. They are busy every day, isn’t it just for a bite of meat and to be able to eat their fill?
But it's quite dangerous outside. Some of the weaker ones who have awakened beast forms cannot possibly catch those big guys, so many people can only envy them.
Being stared at like this, Xiong Bai proudly puffed out her exposed "chest". Soon, men from the tribe came to show their courtesy to her. Of course, Hu Yue was also there.
People with strong abilities, whether men or women, are welcomed.
Kumano did not get involved in these things. He carried his animal skin package and went to the big cave facing west on the east side of the col.
This cave was not dug by them, but existed before the people in the tribe came to this place. Of course, the people in the tribe dug the cave a little bigger.
In this cave live the elderly, children and disabled people who cannot participate in hunting.
It is said that a hundred years ago, their tribe was like a big family and everyone lived together.
At that time, they had not yet found the col, and life was very hard. There were very few people in the tribe, and it was impossible to tell whose children were whose and who were not. No one cared and just raised them together.
The elderly or disabled are often abandoned due to lack of food.
It was not until later, when a certain tribe leader accidentally saved the priest's master and their tribe had a priest, that everything slowly changed.
The priest knows many dinosaurs and the weaknesses of each dinosaur. He also knows a more complete language, can heal people, and knows how to preserve meat...
Since the priests appeared, there were very few cases of starvation in the tribe. At the same time, they began to pay attention to their relatives and started to have some private property, instead of everything belonging to the tribe.
It was because of all this that more people in their tribe began to awaken their powerful beast forms. Everyone's lives became better and better, and their numbers increased. Now there are already four hundred people!
However, although some changes have taken place, not everyone will raise their own children. Sudden death has always existed, so most of the children in the tribe still live together and are raised by the tribe. Those elderly people who have lost their ability to move are also raised by the tribe.
They got a lot of food, especially the children, who were highly valued by the tribe, but the lives of these children were not as good as those of children who lived with their parents.
Kumano has a dream. He wants to be the chief of the tribe and make his tribe stronger and stronger. He hopes that no one in the tribe will have to go hungry anymore.
When Kumano entered the cave, he saw a group of old people lying in a mess, but there were also some people sitting in the corner, talking to some children.
In addition, there were several children around 11 or 12 years old who were roasting earthworms to eat.
Children of this age are always hungry, and the food distributed by the tribe is often not enough, so they will try to get some food for themselves.
"Brother Kumano!" Everyone was very excited when they saw the huge brown bear.
Xiong Ye put down the animal skin package in his hand, changed into a human form and wrapped the animal skin around his waist, then said: "Hu Yue and I went out hunting and hunted a ridgeback dragon. The bones and skin are for you."
"Thank you, Brother Xiong Ye!" The children cheered, and the old men who were lying down also sat up. The old man who was talking to the children in the tribe said, "Xiumaya, you still care about us."
"I didn't do anything." Kumano said. He also needed to store food, and it was impossible for him to let the children develop the habit of getting something for nothing. Therefore, he would not give them good meat, but he would give them bones, animal skins and other things.
He liked to listen to the elders in the tribe talk about the past since he was a child. It was said that their tribe was very weak in the past, and the strongest people only awakened into black bears. It was very difficult to hunt dinosaurs, so they usually ate various plants, or waited for carnivorous dinosaurs to eat their prey, and then picked up the dinosaur skin and bones to eat...
Carnivorous dinosaurs generally do not eat their prey very cleanly, and there are always some scraps of meat left. In addition, bone marrow is also a good thing.
They never waste anything.
Even now, when people in the tribe go out hunting, they will not leave out the bones. Hu Yue and Xiong Bai gave him the bones because they knew that he would give them to the elderly and children in the tribe, and they did not lack these bones.
Xiongye put down the bone and left to find Shili.
This time, he saw Shi Li before he reached the entrance of Shi Li's cave - Shi Li was standing on the stone platform at the entrance of the cave where he lived, looking unhappy.
At this moment, not only was he wrapped tightly in animal skins, but even his hair, which was always loose in the past, was tied up with ropes.
Shi Li was indeed not very happy at the moment.
After he became more and more powerful and became the Beast King in his previous life, his life became more and more refined. Now he really couldn't adapt to this dirty and messy tribe.
Apart from anything else...he couldn't accept the fact that all the women in the tribe were topless.
In those big tribes, women don't dress like this.
These people... have no sense of shame at all!
Seeing that Hu Yue and Xiong Bai were covered in blood and in a miserable state but still had many people trying to please them, Shi Li began to think about leaving the tribe early, but he quickly rejected the idea.
He is still too weak now, and it would be easy for him to encounter danger if he goes to other places. Instead, if he stays here... At least he knows what they will encounter next, and he knows how to deal with it.
Moreover, he used to be the leader of this tribe and had many loyal subordinates in the tribe, and he did not want to abandon these people.
Of course, besides his subordinates, there are also people he hates, such as Hu Yue... Shi Li even started thinking about how to kill them.
Shi Li was thinking about the future when he saw Xiong Ye.
Kumano looked even more miserable than Togetsuki and Xiongbai.
When Hu Yue and Xiong Bai came back, they only carried the meat, and they had already turned into human form. They at least wiped themselves on the way, but Kumano didn't have time to do anything.
"Shi Li." Xiong Ye called out with a smile.
There was a flash of disdain in Shi Li's eyes, and he dodged to the side when Xiong Ye approached.
Seeing this, Kumano was slightly stunned.
In the eyes of the people in the tribe, Kumano has always been carefree, not caring much about material things, and willing to help others.
But only he himself knows that he is not actually like that.
His father and his mother were not together for long. They separated after he was born, and his mother raised him alone.
Three years later, when he grew up a little, his mother fell in love with a handsome man, gave birth to a second child with him, and no longer took care of him. When he was five years old, his father, who occasionally took care of him, passed away.
Growing up in such an environment, he has actually been very good at reading people's faces since he was a child.
He could ignore some of Shi Li's reactions yesterday, but Shi Li's disdain today made him unhappy.
But he was also a little puzzled - why did Shi Li suddenly change?
However, Xiong Ye did not reveal anything, but said: "Shi Li, I killed a ridgeback dragon, do you want it?"
Shi Li actually looked down upon the bloody meat on Xiongye's back, but he suddenly remembered that there was no meat at home.
Since he did not go hunting with Kumano, he could only cut off some of the meat that Yangying and Yangsu had gnawed and eat it.
If it was the Shi Li of the past, he would eat less if there was not much food at home, but the Shi Li of now does not have such awareness.
He has lived a life of luxury for decades, how could he go hungry?
Also... when he was practicing, he got hungry very quickly.
Shi Li had already eaten all the food distributed by the tribe yesterday, and he was hungry again.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come out.
"Put it down." Shi Li said reservedly.
Hearing this, Xiong Ye asked without thinking: "Shi Li, do you remember what you said when we decided to become partners?"
