The slaves of the Giant Tiger Tribe were discovered as soon as they entered the territory of the Big Bear Tribe. The one who discovered them was Kumano, who had a particularly good nose and was leading people out hunting.
Suddenly seeing such a large group of people, Kumano was actually a little confused - where did these people come from? What do you want to do?
He should have been more cautious, but these people looked so miserable. Not only were they covered in scars and looked skinny, but many of them didn't even have a piece of animal skin to wrap themselves in.
Facing such a group of people, he was not on guard... He asked someone to tell the priest about this matter, and asked these people: "Who are you?"
These slaves had been in the Giant Tiger Tribe for a long time. Not only had they suffered oppression, but they also had no intention of resisting. When Kumano asked them this question, they immediately told him their origins and knelt before him, "Sir, please don't kill us..."
Kumano: “…” Why would I kill you for no reason?
"Come with me back to the tribe." Kumano said. He didn't know what to do with these people, so he just took them back to the tribe first.
He knew that the tribe was a little short of people, but he wondered if this many people would be too many...
Hearing that Kumano was willing to take them back to the tribe, these people were delighted and said, "Thank you, sir! Thank you!"
This person is willing to let them return to the tribe. Does that mean he doesn't intend to kill them? Or even if he wanted to kill them, he wouldn't kill them all?
This is really great!
Hope ignited in the hearts of these people, and they whispered to each other: "Can we... survive?"
“Will they give us food?”
"Even if you don't give us meat, you should give us some vegetables, right?"
…
In the Giant Tiger Tribe, they had no meat to eat and could only eat some vegetables. That would have been fine, but the people in the Giant Tiger Tribe would beat and scold them, and some of them even took pleasure in torturing them.
They don’t dare to hope to have enough to eat now, they just hope that they can have something to eat no matter what it is and not be beaten.
Most people thought so, and Hou Shi's woman pulled Hou Shi's sleeve and said, "Hou Shi, ask him...how is our child?"
Monkey Stone said, "Let's talk about it later. When we get to the tribe, we can see the child. There's no rush."
The woman from Monkey Rock nodded. The people they met were from a hunting team. Kumano was okay, but Zhuzhan standing next to Kumano was really too tall, taller than Hutian, which made people scared. Therefore, although she wanted to ask about her son's whereabouts, she did not dare to ask for fear of being beaten.
These people continued to move forward, one step deep and one step shallow.
Not long after they walked, someone fell to the ground.
They had long been at the end of their strength, so people fell down from time to time these days.
The slaves who were walking along saw the fallen man, but no one did anything about him. Many of them fell down along the way and never woke up again, which even attracted some small carnivorous dinosaurs to follow them and eat their corpses... They were all used to death and didn't care about those who fell down at all.
Even if these people may be their relatives.
Kumano was shocked and walked over to take a look. He found that the fallen person was hot all over and had rotten wounds on his body. He thought he really couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked him up.
"Sir..." Someone was dumbfounded when seeing this scene: "Sir, this man has a fever and is dying..."
People who have a fever like this may spread their fever to others, so once the Giant Tiger Tribe finds someone sick, they will kill that person and throw him away... Now if this sick person spreads the disease to the people of the Big Bear Tribe, will the people of the Big Bear Tribe drive them away?
"It's okay, just take him back and get treated." said Kumano.
These people had seen many people from the Giant Tiger Tribe kill people without blinking an eye. When they heard Xiong Ye say this, they were so moved that tears welled up in their eyes: "Sir, you are such a good man!"
They thought, it’s great that they should be able to survive!
These people were originally exhausted, but now they were full of hope for the future, they regained their strength and walked faster.
At this time, the person Kumano sent to find the priest to report the news came back.
"Kumano, the priest asked you to take people to the place where pottery is made!"
"Okay." Kumano nodded and led the people there.
Where is the place where pottery is made? What is pottery? These people were all very puzzled, but no one dared to ask, so they could only follow behind silently.
They walked very long, for more than three hours, before finally reaching the place where pottery was fired.
Then, from a distance, everyone smelled a fragrance.
Is that... the smell of boiled meat and eggs?
The people of the Big Bear Tribe actually ate boiled meat and eggs in broad daylight? Isn’t that too luxurious? Their tribe only eats one meal at night!
For a moment, these people were extremely envious of the people of the Big Bear Tribe.
At the same time, the fragrance also made them quicken their pace.
Even if you can’t eat it…it’s good to smell it!
The smell that was very fragrant to these people was just ordinary to Kumano, who had eaten a lot of delicious food recently, and he didn't feel anything at all.
The people of the Giant Pig Tribe would not drool over such a small thing - when they were in the Giant Pig Tribe, they often ate things like stewed meat with earthen eggs.
Seeing this, the slaves were secretly surprised - the people of the Big Bear Tribe didn't even feel greedy when they smelled this flavor, did they eat it often?
Even Hou Shi was surprised. He had come into contact with the people of the Big Bear Tribe when they came to the Green Mountain Tribe to exchange salt. According to what he learned at the time, although the Big Bear Tribe had one more priest, their life was not much better than that of the Green Mountain Tribe... How come these people have no reaction when they smell such a fragrant smell now?
He was just curious, and they walked through some trees and came to a place where some trees had been cut down.
This place is very large and flat, with a huge fire in the middle and some small fires beside it. On those small fires, there are stone pots, and what is being cooked in the stone pots is, isn’t it, local eggs and meat?
Their eyes were wide open!
Just then, an old man with white hair and beard, wearing a long robe that dragged on the ground, came up to them.
The robe this man was wearing was exactly the same as the one worn by the chief of the Giant Tiger Tribe!
However, he looks completely different from the chief of the Giant Tiger Tribe. The chief of the Giant Tiger Tribe looks scary, but he is different. He has kind eyes and a smile on his face, which makes people subconsciously feel close to him.
No, it’s not just close... There’s a circle drawn in the middle of his forehead, which looks very mysterious and makes people subconsciously want to worship him.
This man is of course the priest.
Before Zhu Zhan, he wanted to exchange his clothes for chili peppers from Zhou Ji, but Zhou Ji refused. But later he went to the priest and the priest agreed.
The priest promised to give Zhu Zhan and others a basket of peppers when the tribe grew peppers, and then he got Zhu Zhan's clothes in advance.
The priest thought Zhuzhan's clothes were really, really good and especially suitable for his status. The only drawback was that they were a little too big and too long. Unfortunately, he was considered small in the tribe, and he got even shorter as he got older. He was more than a head shorter than Xiongye and two heads shorter than the giant Zhuzhan...
So, the clothes that were actually a bit tight for Zhu Zhan appeared particularly loose and long on him.
But because of this, he looked ethereal... In short, the priest was very satisfied with his clothes and had decided to wear them whenever something happened in the future.
"Now that you are here...eat something first." said the priest, and then asked someone to bring some wooden bowls to distribute food to these people.
He gave each person a big spoonful of boiled eggs and meat.
The eggs were already cooked, the meat was chopped into minced meat, and a lot of water was added. These bowls of food were actually just a bit of watery minced meat and egg paste, but when those people held them in their hands, they were so happy that they almost fainted.
This stewed meat with local eggs is actually for them to eat?
This was indeed food for them. The priest said gently, "Eat quickly, so you can have strength." Only with strength can they help him work!
Today, the priest put not much eggs and meat in the stewed meat, and it was a little watery. On the one hand, this was to save food, and on the other hand, it was also for the good of these people - their physical condition was not suitable for eating too much, or eating too well, as that might cause them to have diarrhea.
These slaves were all very weak, and the place where they were staying now... there were many fires lit here, and the moisture in the air was dried up, making them feel very comfortable.
What's more, they have local eggs and stewed meat to eat!
The first person who got the stewed meat with local eggs drank up the porridge in the bowl without being afraid of the heat at all! And when they finished drinking, they returned the bowl and asked the person who served the rice to serve the next person.
Everyone was very excited, and the most excited one was the woman from Monkey Stone. After coming to this place, she subconsciously began to look for her child, and then she found him!
She took Houshi's hand and said, "Houshi, look! Our child!"
They saw their child, and the child saw them too, and ran towards them with muddy hands.
Monkey Stone didn't expect that the child was not dead. He was so grateful to the Big Bear Tribe that his eyes were red. Then he slapped his son on the head and said, "You little bastard, you don't work hard, but you play in the mud!"
The child who was making pottery embryos hugged him and got him covered in mud.
