Zhou Ji was very relieved about Xiong Ye going back to find out the news.
With Kumano's current strength, even if he were to collide head-on with the Giant Tiger Tribe's large army, nothing would necessarily happen, not to mention the high probability that he would not collide with them.
He followed to prevent Kumano from getting into danger, but not to let Kumano experience nothing.
Zhou Ji thought so and looked at Niu Er and others outside the tree hole: "You sit down by the tree and pray silently to the Beast God, asking the Beast God to bless us."
When they hid, Kumano had carefully cleaned up all the traces, but something was still left behind. These people walked around with a frightened look on their faces, and perhaps someone would notice that something was wrong.
In this case, it would be better to let them sit aside obediently.
Niu Er and others were a little confused when they heard Zhou Ji's words, but they still sat down obediently and began to pray, each with a pious expression.
Zhou Ji is a person loved by the Beast God, so what he said must have a reason.
Great beast god! Please bless us!
Seeing that these people were not moving, Zhou Ji, who had already used some flowers and plants to isolate the smell, added a little more energy.
This way, they are safe. I don't know what's going on in Kumano...
Kumano has brought people to kill those who remained from the Giant Tiger Tribe.
This was his first time killing someone, but he had started hunting at a very young age and had killed countless prey. These people were his enemies and were clamoring to attack his tribe... Although he felt a little uncomfortable when killing people, he quickly adjusted himself.
After killing the people, Kumano opened several rooms where the people from the Creek tribe were imprisoned.
All the elders and children of the Creek Tribe had been killed, and most of the survivors were young people. The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe locked them up in order to play with them and to subdue them.
In the Giant Tiger Tribe, there are many slaves who help them work, and these slaves are all survivors from the tribes that were destroyed by them.
Generally speaking, after a period of starvation and beating, some people will surrender. As for those who refuse to surrender, they will be killed.
The Creek Tribe had just been conquered by them and was still starving, so there were quite a lot of survivors.
As soon as Kumano opened the door, he was met with angry looks from these people.
Fortunately, Xiong Qi squeezed in quickly and saw an acquaintance among these people: "Bao Cheng?"
The last time Xiong Qi and others came to Xiaoxi Tribe to exchange salt, they were in a very sorry state. The Xiaoxi Tribe was quite alert and did not let them enter the tribe. However, the tribe's chief Bao Cheng came out to negotiate with Xiong Qi. He knew Xiong Qi.
"Xiong Qi?" Bao Cheng was surprised and then his face was filled with grief and anger: "You joined the Giant Tiger Tribe?"
"How is that possible? I have a grudge against them!" Xiong Qi said.
Bao Cheng's face was full of suspicion, and Xiong Ye said, "We came to you to exchange salt, but we found something wrong, so we came in to take a look... The people guarding you have been killed by us."
"You are..." Baocheng looked at Kumano.
"He is Xiong Ye, a warrior from our Big Bear tribe! He is very powerful!" Xiong Qi's face was full of admiration.
Baocheng was deeply impressed when he saw that Xiongqi, a man whom he could not beat, respected Xiongye so much.
Bao Cheng was in good health. Although he had been hungry for a few days, he still had a lot of strength. He came out of the house and saw the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe who had been killed outside. He believed in Xiong Ye and was extremely grateful: "Thank you!"
"You're welcome." Xiong Ye looked at these people and thought, "Do you want to cooperate with me and kill all the people from the Giant Tiger Tribe?"
The people of the Giant Tiger Tribe went out, and according to those who stayed behind to guard them, they should be going after them.
If we can't catch up, these people will definitely come back. If we can kill them all...
Of course, before that, he had to go and see Zhou Ji.
They came out this time to exchange salt, and they also have to protect Zhou Ji. They can't let anything happen to Zhou Ji!
When Bao Cheng heard what Xiong Ye said, he agreed without thinking: "Yes! I must take revenge!"
The environment of the Creek Tribe is similar to that of the Big Bear Tribe. The entire tribe is like a big family with close relationships among each other.
The Giant Tiger Tribe killed two-thirds of their people. They hated the Giant Tiger Tribe so much that they wanted revenge.
Kumano made arrangements immediately, and after that he left the creek tribe and went into the forest.
He discovered that the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe chased them in the direction they came from and did not notice Zhou Ji and the others.
He didn't know when the people from the Giant Tiger Tribe would come back, but Zhou Ji and the others were definitely safe.
If Zhou Ji was brought to the Xiaoxi tribe now, he might be hurt in the fight that would follow... Xiong Ye went back quietly.
Zhou Ji, who discovered Xiong Ye’s visit with his spiritual power, said: “…”
When Kumano returned to the Xiaoxi tribe, the people of the Xiaoxi tribe had just finished eating the earthen eggs they brought to exchange for salt.
Compared to meat, free-range eggs can make people stronger faster.
After eating, the people from the Creek Tribe continued to lie back down, while the people from the Big Bear Tribe hid in the Creek Tribe and covered up the smell on their bodies with mud and other things.
With the cover of people from the Creek Tribe who were familiar with this tribe, it was not difficult for them to accomplish this task.
Not long after they hid, the people from the Giant Tiger Tribe came back.
Hu Tiao led his men out to chase the people from the Big Bear Tribe, but they couldn't catch them no matter how hard they tried. He asked the man in the form of a bat to fly ahead to look for them, but he still couldn't find them.
Those damn people from the Big Bear Tribe must be hiding!
The forest is so big, it would be hard to find fifty people if they were hiding... Seeing that it was getting dark, Hu Tiao took his people back to the tribe first.
Anyway, the Big Bear Tribe will be destroyed by them sooner or later, so there is no rush for revenge!
"Those people from the Big Bear Tribe are so cunning!"
"When we conquer the Big Bear Tribe, I will kill them all!"
"They have a lot of earth eggs. Let the chief knock them down quickly!"
…
As they were talking, they smelled the aroma of roasted earth eggs coming from the tribe.
Hutiao immediately became dissatisfied: "Those damn guys secretly roasted earth eggs in the tribe while we were away!"
Tiger jumped into the Creek Tribe, intending to cause trouble for the people he had left behind to guard the tribe.
During the day, Hutiao planned to lure the people of the Big Bear tribe into the tribe and then capture them all in one fell swoop.
And now... he came in with his men, and were all caught in one fell swoop, except for a bat that flew away when no one was paying attention.
Kumano noticed the movement, but the bat was too small and flew too fast, so he couldn't stop it even if he wanted to.
The Giant Tiger Tribe wants to attack the Big Bear Tribe. There is no need to stop them now. The most urgent task is to improve the strength of our own tribe.
Kumano turned his gaze to the people of the Creek Tribe who were crying bitterly after killing all the people of the Giant Tiger Tribe, and was a little hesitant.
Each of these people from the Creek Tribe is capable of fighting. If they are willing to join the Big Bear Tribe, the strength of the Big Bear Tribe will be greatly enhanced.
It is normal for a large tribe to absorb a small tribe. In the past few decades, the Big Bear Tribe had accepted a small tribe that escaped and had only a dozen people left.
But now the Big Bear Tribe has some problems - they are running low on food! Moreover, the Creek Tribe may not be willing to join them.
Xiong Ye said: "We want to go back to the Big Bear Tribe, what are you going to do?"
Leopard was stunned.
"You can come with us and settle down around the Big Bear Tribe." Kumano said again.
Bao Cheng was quite conflicted. On the one hand, he wanted to join the Big Bear Tribe, but on the other hand, he hoped that the Small Creek Tribe would still exist. Now after hearing what Xiong Ye said... he immediately agreed.
The next step is to distribute supplies.
Xiong Ye led his men to rescue the people of the Xiaoxi tribe. According to convention, everything in the tribe should belong to him, but Xiong Ye generously gave a lot of things to the Xiaoxi tribe: "We will give you all the earth eggs, animal skins and shells we brought. You can make weapons and equip yourself. But we will take some salt and other things."
"No problem!" Bao Chengdao looked at Kumano gratefully. They could plant these earth eggs after they found a new place to live. As for salt... the tribe was in this state and they might not be able to fill their stomachs for the time being, so salt was not a necessity.
Not to mention that Kumano hadn't taken all of it, leaving them a lot of salt.
"By the way, what is this?" Kumano asked, pointing at a bag of things that looked like seeds.
Zhou Ji liked all kinds of plant seeds and collected a lot of them in their cave. When he and Zhou Ji slept in the same bed, he would sometimes find a lot of seeds on the bed.
Now that he has accomplished something great, it would be nice to give Zhou Ji a gift. Seeds are a good choice.
"These are edible seeds. They were given to us by other tribes when they exchanged them for salt after the Qingshan tribe encountered trouble." Bao Chengdao said.
Edible seeds, that's even better... Kumano directly picked up the seeds in the animal skin bag: "Let's go!"
When fighting with the Giant Tiger Tribe, the people from the salt-exchanging team did not rush to the front, and those who came were all strong, so no one died. However, more than a dozen people from the Small Creek Tribe who were already injured or weak died, and now they only have about forty people left.
Kumano led the salt exchange team and the creek tribe, a total of about 90 people, and first went to a nearby... creek.
"What are we doing here?" Bao Cheng was puzzled.
"Take a bath." Kumano jumped directly into the water.
He had already discovered that Zhou Ji didn't like the smell of blood, but he was now covered in the smell of blood.
So, I should take a shower first and then go find Zhou Ji.
Xiong Qi and others also took a bath obediently.
When they arrived at the Xiaoxi Tribe yesterday, they did not look tired at all and everyone was very clean because Zhou Ji asked them to take a shower along the way.
At first they were a little reluctant, but after washing more often they felt... it was quite comfortable after being clean.
Taking a bath at this time, is it some kind of ritual? Baocheng took the people from the Creek Tribe to take a bath, and then they discovered... Kumano actually started catching fish!
