Chapter 8 Pentaceratops



Kumano returned to his cave and hung up the meat of the dinosaur first, and then ate the heart of the ornithomimus that he had not eaten last night, as well as a large piece of meat.

He was in a bad mood and wanted to eat more.

After eating, he took out the little salt he had left and rubbed it on the meat of the ridgeback dragon.

One of the methods the priests taught them to preserve meat was to pickle it with salt, but there was no salt near their tribe, so they had to go somewhere else to exchange for salt.

Generally speaking, they will be replaced once every spring.

At this moment, some older and more experienced warriors in the tribe went to exchange salt. Originally, he also wanted to go and learn from them, but he wanted to become a partner with Shi Li, so he did not go in the end.

Thinking of Shi Li, Xiong Ye felt uncomfortable and bloated in his chest. He touched his round belly, turned into a beast, fell on the bed he had made of wood, and fell asleep.

Kumano was awakened by a knock on the door, and along with the knock, Kumashiro's voice rang out: "Kumano, Kumano! Going hunting!"

When Kumano opened the door, he saw Xiongbai.

Xiong Bai looked a little different today. She had a ring made of green vines on her head with a few small flowers on it, and her chest was wrapped with a red dinosaur skin.

Quite cumbersome.

"Let's go." Kumano said. He went out directly without any weapons.

Those people in the tribe whose beast forms are relatively weak often do not transform into beast forms when hunting, but choose to fight in human form with weapons. But he is different. His beast form is his greatest weapon.

"Xiong Ye, why did you fight with Shi Li yesterday?" Xiong Bai asked as he chased after Xiong Ye.

Xiong Bai saw the fight between Xiong Ye and Shi Li yesterday with his own eyes and was shocked.

It’s not like Xiongye and Shili have fought before. People in their tribe often spar with each other, and Xiongye and Shili are no exception. But the way Xiongye and Shili behaved yesterday didn’t look like they were sparring!

Xiongye usually gives in to Shili, and Shili would never really fight with Xiongye, but yesterday... Shili was scratched by Xiongye, with several big cuts!

She felt that Xiong Ye and Shi Li might have broken up.

After guessing this, Xiong Bai was quite happy - if Xiong Ye and Shi Li broke up, could she have a child with Xiong Ye?

Kumano is strong and good-looking. The children she and Kumano have will definitely be outstanding. Moreover, Kumano is so kind to those children in the tribe who have nothing to do with him. If they have children, Kumano will definitely not ignore the children!

Kumano quickened his pace and said nothing.

"Xiongye Xiongye, they all said that Shili was too lazy and annoyed you, so you beat him. Is that true?" Xiong Bai asked again.

Kumano really didn't want to answer.

Although Shi Li’s reaction and words yesterday made him uncomfortable, the two have known each other for eight years, and he always felt that what Shi Li said yesterday was not his true words.

Shi Li was so happy when he talked about the future with him before, it didn’t look like he was unwilling to be with him at all.

Maybe soon, Shi Li will come to him to make peace.

Xiong Ye didn't want to answer Xiong Bai's question, so he just found a random topic to talk about: "Why are you wearing this thing on your head today?"

Xiong Bai saw Xiong Ye paying attention to him, and without bothering to ask about Xiong Ye and Shi Li, he quickly asked: "Does it look good?"

"It takes a lot of time to make this thing, right? Just for the sake of looking good?" Xiong Ye said, "Next time when you have time, you might as well weave a basket." When hunting later, Xiong Bai will definitely turn into an animal form. At that time, the animal skin on his waist can still be tied around his waist, but this wreath will definitely be thrown away!

Xiong Bai: “…”

Xiong Ye didn't think Xiong Bai was good-looking at all, but several young men in the tribe surrounded Xiong Bai and said, "Xiong Bai, you look really good today."

"Xiong Bai, I have some dried meat here..."

"Xiong Bai, I went out yesterday and caught two frogs. I'll give you some roasted frogs."

The women in the tribe will actively pursue strong or good-looking men, and the men in the tribe will also pursue strong or good-looking women.

"I caught a ridgeback dragon yesterday!" Xiong Bai said proudly to the men, then left from among them and went to find Hu Yue.

After waiting in the valley for a while, all the people who wanted to participate in the hunt arrived, about a hundred in total.

Xiong Ye looked around in the crowd and saw Shi Li, but Shi Li didn't even look at him, so he didn't look at Shi Li either.

When everyone was gathered, the tribe's chief Xiong He said, "Let's go! Let's go catch a big guy!"

"Okay!" Everyone responded and followed him out of the tribe.

Most of the soldiers in the team were young people, because many older soldiers had gone to exchange for salt.

Xiong He led them forward and explained some knowledge and experience to them.

After walking for a while, Xiong He asked these people to divide into groups of ten and go out to look for prey.

Xiong Ye, Hu Yue, Shi Li and even Xiong Bai are all leaders of this group of ten.

Kumano and his men walked forward cautiously.

They had worked together many times and had a tacit understanding. After walking for a while, Kumano smelled the scent of prey first, and everyone followed the smell and felt the earth shaking - they found several huge pentaceratops.

Kumano's beast form is the largest in the tribe, and those pentaceratops are probably ten times heavier than Kumano!

Kumano hid himself carefully, not daring to be discovered by those pentagons. At this time, he found that Hu Yue and his men were lurking not far away.

The two looked at each other, and the one who was smaller and less likely to be discovered changed into animal form and followed the pentagons, and then went back together.

When they returned, there were already many people waiting at the Bear River. Some of them didn't find any prey, while some found some small prey.

For example, Shi Li and his team found several Heterodontosaurus.

Xiong He weighed the options and finally said, "Let's go catch the pentagonal dragon."

Pentaceratops is a type of ceratosaurus with five horns on its head. An adult Pentaceratops is eight meters long and weighs more than five tons. To the people in their tribe, it is already a large dinosaur.

If it were a hundred years ago when there were no priests, they would not have had time to hide when they saw such a big dinosaur, but now they can "hunt" such dinosaurs by working together.

"Chief, is the pentaceratops very big? Do we really want to catch it?" someone asked excitedly and nervously.

"I'll take you to see it." Xiong He said with a smile, "It's still early now. If we can't catch it, we can go catch something else."

Everyone agreed and walked towards the location of the pentagon. Along the way, Xiong He talked about the pentagon: "The pentagon has a shield on its head, which is very powerful..."

Shi Li frowned as he listened: "The shield of the pentagon is hollow, and its only use is for courtship."

"Really?" Xiong He was a little surprised: "I've seen a pentaceratops, but never caught one. I didn't know that it was hollow inside!" The shield on the head of the pentaceratops looks very solid!

Shi Li said: "The head of the pentagon is very big, and it has horns. When we attack it later, we can't attack it from the front, we have to attack it from the back..."

Shi Li said a lot, all of which were experiences he learned in the days that followed.

The people in the tribe listened very carefully.

Yesterday, Xiongye beat Shili up. Many people saw it, but the people in the tribe didn't care much about other people's affairs and didn't pay any attention to it.

So what if Kumano and Shili had a falling out? These two are still very strong and are still the idols of most of them.

Moreover, most of the people in the tribe who awakened into bear-like animals like Xiongye, but there are also people who awakened into other animals and like Shili.

The lion's fierce and majestic appearance and passionate and flamboyant personality are still very likable.

Of course, the main reason why no one said anything was because... it was Kumano who beat Shili yesterday, and Shili didn't fight back much, and now he still has injuries on his body!

Seeing that everyone in the tribe was surrounding him, Shi Li said, "We will do this later. Some people will attract the attention of the pentagon, and some people will attack it from behind..."

He began to plan how to hunt.

However, as Shi Li was speaking, Xiong Ye interrupted him: "If we go directly against the Pentagon like this, we will die!"

Is the Pentaceratops so easy to mess with? This is a giant beast covered in armor and with horns on its head!

"How else can we hunt if not this way?" Shi Li asked back. Although he hadn't hunted for a long time, the hunting experience he learned during those years of wandering with Xiong Ye and the remnants of the tribe was still there. He believed that what he proposed must be the best way to hunt the pentacron!

As for dying... if they can die, then they are too weak.

Xiongye glanced at Shili and said, "Drive the pentaceratops into the swamp." He had heard from the priest about their tribe's method of hunting prey as large as the pentaceratops. Usually, they would drive these big guys into the swamp and let them get stuck in it. Then, they would let them slaughter them at will.

Shi Li was stunned and finally remembered something - the tribe seemed to have done this before.

However, the swamp used by the tribe to trap prey is not available all year round, and it is not easy to encounter such a big creature, so this is done very rarely. He had long forgotten about it, and even did not remember where the swamp was.

"I chose the pentagon this time because I wanted you to go and see that swamp." Xiong Hedao said, and then began to discuss with the warriors in the tribe how to drive away the pentagon.

Kumano had gone to observe the swamp a few days ago and shared his views.

When Shi Li was giving a long speech before, many people paid attention to him, but now, everyone went to listen to Xiong He and Xiong Ye.

Xionghe and Kumano walked together. They looked very similar and seemed particularly close.

Yes, they are uncle and nephew, and both have awakened brown bears. They are the only two brown bears in the tribe now, so they naturally have a good relationship. Shi Li knows that Xiong He has always wanted Xiong Ye to be his successor.

After Xiong He died in his previous life, there were a lot of things to do in the tribe and Xiong Ye was too busy to handle it. He also had to find a new place to exchange salt and could not stay in the tribe all the time, so he was made the chief.

Now……

Shi Li suddenly realized that what he had done before was a bit reckless.

His roots in the tribe are not as deep as Kumano's. If Kumano were to cause trouble for him...

Before, Shi Li still wanted to be together with Xiong Ye without becoming a couple, but after what happened yesterday, he had given up this plan.

Firstly, he knew that Kumano would not agree - when he was young, Kumano would not tolerate any sand in his eyes.

Secondly, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart - he was already beaten by Kumano, and he definitely couldn't show weakness to Kumano!

Since that’s the case... Shi Li suddenly realized that he should do something.

Everyone in the tribe went to listen to Xiong Ye and Xiong He talking, and no one paid attention to him. Shi Li was getting a little annoyed when a young and beautiful woman came up to him and said, "Shi Li, you are amazing. You know so much about pentagonal dragons."

When Shi Li saw this girl, his heart moved.

He still remembered the woman in front of him, she was the most beautiful woman in the tribe and Xiong He’s favorite child, Lang Yin.

Lang Yin has always liked him, but compared to Kumano, Lang Yin, who has been pampered since childhood, is really too weak!

At his age, he had never thought about Lang Yin, but after Lang Yin died at a young age in that catastrophe, he would often think of this beautiful woman who had once expressed her affection for him.
