Zhou Ji stopped talking afterwards.
Xiong Ye thought that there should be no such animal as "Ji". Zhou Ji probably saw that other people had two-character names and wanted to have the same name, so he named himself "Zhou Ji".
After a busy day of moving wood one by one to the entrance of his cave, Kumano was very tired even though he was in good health. He lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
It rained the next day, with a drizzle.
When Kumano opened the door, he shivered at the rain and fog that blew in his face.
He began to wonder whether he should cover himself with animal skins like Zhou Ji, but quickly rejected the idea.
That would be too inconvenient, not to mention that he basically hunts in the form of animals. Not only are they not afraid of the cold, but the animal skins are also inconvenient to carry.
The cave where Kumano lived faced south, which was a good orientation, but it was a bit high, making it inconvenient to get in and out. Before he moved in, there was only a narrow platform at the door, and there wasn't even a staircase leading down.
However, in recent years, he dug the cave a little deeper, made the platform a little wider, and chiseled some grooves on the mountain wall to make it easier to climb down, making it much easier to go up and down.
Now there were some wood piled at the entrance of the cave, and the road became difficult to walk on again, but Kumano was agile and didn't care at all. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the bottom of the valley.
He went to find Shi Li again.
The tribe's hunting team would only go out every other day, and on the days when they didn't go out, he would basically go hunting with Shi Li.
His beast form is much heavier than Shi Li and stronger than Shi Li, but his movements are not as flexible as Shi Li's beast form, and his fighting ability is not much stronger than Shi Li's.
Combining the characteristics of their respective animal forms, they used to choose a good place to ambush when hunting, and when the prey came, they would attack together. Generally, Shi Li would attack the neck of its prey, while he would attack the sides of its prey. As long as they could knock the prey down, it would be their prey.
The two of them have been hunting together for several years. They cooperate very well and can catch prey from time to time. But since Shi Li joined the tribe, he no longer had to worry about what to eat next, so he became a little lazy...
This is a common problem among people who awaken into lions. If no one cared about him and he was full, Shi Li could even sleep for a whole day and night.
But Xiongye is different from Shili. He would feel uneasy without food stored. Also... Shili has a mother and younger brother to support.
In their tribe, in a situation like Shi Li, it is considered good enough if he is willing to support his mother. He usually will not support his younger brother. After all, his younger brother will not starve to death, and orcs of this age can already do something.
But Shi Li is different. Shi Li is very good to his mother and younger brother. He would rather starve himself than feed his mother and younger brother.
As a result, they needed more food—Shi Li's younger brother was growing up and could eat more every day.
Xiongye came to the entrance of Shili's cave and shouted, and the door opened. This time it was Yangsu who opened the door.
When Yangsu was young, he treated Kumano very well, but after he awakened at the age of ten and became a sheep, his attitude towards Kumano plummeted. Xiongye was very puzzled and asked Shili about it. Shili said that he had awakened and become a useless sheep, and he felt unhappy, so he complained about them.
Kumano thinks that Yangsu can't do this. If Mao Jin awakens and becomes a little cat, can't he also guard the door?
The one awakened by Yangsu was a goat. According to the priest, this kind of animal can walk on steep rock walls, the horns on its head can be used for fighting, and it can run fast, so it's actually not too bad... But Yangsu has never practiced these skills and he is not even willing to transform into a beast to adapt to his body.
"Yangsu, where is Shili?" asked Kumano.
Yang Su rolled his eyes at Kumano, but still said, "I'll go call him."
Kumano nodded, but didn't go in, just waited at the door.
Shi Li's cave is divided into two halves, one of which belongs exclusively to Shi Li - Shi Li doesn't like to be disturbed when sleeping.
At this moment, Xiong Ye saw Yang Su walking towards Shi Li and said, "Brother, brother, Xiong Ye is here to see you!"
"It's so noisy!" Shi Li's voice was impatient.
Yang Su was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Xiong Ye and said, "Xiong Ye is here to see you."
Shi Li then came out of the house. He ruffled his messy brown hair and said, "I'm hungry. Where's the food?"
"It's there!" Yang Su pointed to the stone bowl on the wooden table next to him.
Shi Li looked at the stone bowl and saw the heart and meat with tooth marks on them, and he immediately felt disgusted.
This is... letting him eat what others have left?
"Brother, mom and I have reserved most of our hearts for you." Yang Su boasted.
"This heart was originally given to me, right? You only left half for me?" Shi Li said dissatisfiedly. How many years has it been since he last ate something that had been bitten by someone else? !
When Yang Su went to call Shi Li before and was yelled at by Shi Li, saying "It's so noisy", he was a little unhappy. Now seeing Shi Li like this, he was even more stunned.
Shi Li's personality is a bit overbearing, and he likes others to go along with him in everything, but he is still very generous to them and never counts the things at home. Even if they eat all the meat he brought back last night, Shi Li will usually just find a way to hunt again and won't say anything to them.
It is precisely because of this that they are unwilling to let Shi Li and Xiong Ye become a pair.
Can I still be so nice to Shi Li and Xiong Ye after they become a couple and move out?
Can they still follow Shi Li and eat meat?
You know, Kumano has always been indifferent to them.
As a result, Shi Li and Xiong Ye haven’t formed a partnership yet, but they are not allowed to eat meat!
Yang Su felt like he was facing a formidable enemy for a moment.
After Shi Li got angry, his attention turned to Xiong Ye.
The current Kumano is quite different from the Kumano he remembered.
In his impression, Kumano was very powerful and intimidating, but the Kumano in front of him was different. He looked young and immature, and especially youthful.
When he saw him, Kumano smiled, and it was a very beautiful smile.
Shi Li's heart moved. When he was young, he really liked Kumano. In their tribe, there was no one better than Kumano. Unfortunately, after a long time, he got tired of her.
It is impossible for him to form a partnership with Kumano again, but even if he does not form a partnership with Kumano, he can still be with Kumano. The two of them can live together like most people in the tribe, and if they feel it is not suitable in the future, they can separate and part ways amicably.
No, there is no need to separate. Once he becomes stronger, he will naturally have many people around him.
Many of those beast kings have dozens of wives and hundreds of children!
As for Kumano... Although Kumano was stubborn when he was young and was determined to find a partner to live with wholeheartedly, he would probably change in the future. As long as he was strong enough, Kumano would definitely not leave him, and must not leave him.
Shi Li thought a lot, but Xiong Ye didn’t think much about it. He just felt that Shi Li looked at him strangely, and... Shi Li was actually wrapped in an animal skin like Zhou Ji.
Didn’t he used to be annoyed by having to wrap himself in animal skins? I even wished I didn't even have to wrap the animal skin around my waist.
Xiong Ye said: "Shi Li, let's go hunting."
Shi Li didn't want to eat something that others had eaten, and he remembered that Xiong Ye's barbecue skills were very good... He nodded.
Xiong Ye said: "I saw a Hypsilophodon when I went to the woods to cut trees last night. It would be great if we could catch one today. If not, we can go fishing."
When the tribe hunted together, everyone divided the work and cooperated, so they always got something. However, when he and Kumano went hunting alone, they might not always catch prey - sometimes they waited carefully for a long time and caught nothing.
Usually at times like this, Kumano would choose to catch fish, or at worst find some edible plants.
After awakening at the age of ten, he ran away from the tribe to practice his beast form. He practiced so much that he was so hungry that he even ate the grass.
Of course, it was also because of this that he particularly hated eating grass.
Shi Li's expression froze.
He recalled how they hunted at this time.
At that time, he actually bit the prey with his mouth and splashed around in a muddy puddle for a long time just to catch a few fish - he wanted to go to a bigger river to catch fish, but Kumano was worried that there might be dangerous creatures there and didn't allow him to go.
Thinking back to the past, Shi Li couldn't help but feel disgusted. At this time, he saw that it was raining outside...
"Is it raining outside?" Shi Li frowned.
"Yes." Kumano was very happy: "This kind of rainy day is very suitable for hunting." Light rain will interfere with the prey's vision and sense of smell, making it easier for them to catch prey.
Shi Li said: "I don't feel well today, so I won't go." Compared to hunting, he decided to continue practicing! Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood. Only when you are strong can you gain the respect of others!
In his previous life, he did not become the Beast King until he was fifty years old. If he started practicing a few years earlier in this life, perhaps he could become the Beast King in his thirties!
"Do you have enough food?" Kumano frowned.
"Enough." Shi Li said. In their tribe, many people only participated in group hunting, but they didn't starve to death, did they? The food they got was even less than what he got.
"You'd better come with me." Xiong Ye said again. Shi Li couldn't stand being hungry. Winter had just passed and there were few prey in early spring. They had no food stored... If they didn't go hunting at this time, would Shi Li have enough to eat?
"I don't want to go." Shi Li said. What annoyed him most was that Kumano forced him to do things he didn't like. Couldn't he just sleep well?
Of course, he didn't want to sleep now, but wanted to practice.
He had already started practicing yesterday. Although he was practicing very slowly because he had just started, he had already made some progress.
"Were you injured yesterday?" Kumano asked. He was with Shi Li during the group hunting yesterday morning. At that time, it seemed that Shi Li was not injured, but it was hard to say... Shi Li always cared about his reputation.
"No. I just don't feel well." Shi Li was a little annoyed by Xiong Ye's constant questioning, so he turned around and went back to his nest.
Xiong Ye didn’t know what happened to Shi Li. He looked at the sky and had no choice but to go find Hu Yue.
Hu Yue is his half-sister who awakened and became a tiger.
They have a good relationship and often cooperate when the tribe goes hunting together. If Shi Li doesn't want to go hunting, it's also a good idea to go find Hu Yue.
It was still early. When Kumano left, Hu Yue had not set out yet and was eating. When he heard about Kumano's purpose, Hu Yue said, "Xiong Bai and I have an appointment to go hunting. You can go with us."
"I'll go with you." said Kumano.
Xiong Bai is a woman about his age. The bear he awakened was a brown bear, the largest of all bears, while the bear that Xiong Bai awakened was a black bear, which was only one-third of his size.
Of course, even so, Xiong Bai's fighting ability is still very strong - she is good at climbing trees, which not only helps her observe when the prey is coming, but also allows her to drop from the tree unexpectedly and attack the prey.
After a while, Xiong Bai came.
Although Xiong Bai's name is "Bai", not only is her beast form black, but her human form is also quite black. She is exactly the bodybuilding woman that Kumano had seen yesterday.
"Xiong Ye, are you going with us? Where's Shi Li?" Xiong Bai's eyes lit up when he saw Xiong Ye.
Xiongye is the most eye-catching among the younger generation in the tribe. Like Xiongbai, he is a bear. Xiongbai has liked him since he was a child and follows him around all day long.
Xiong Ye said: "He is not feeling well, so he won't go today. Let's leave quickly."
Xiong Bai nodded, and the three of them quickly left the tribe.
When the tribe hunts collectively, they will run to places where there are more prey, but when only a few people go out hunting, they will not do this.
The three of them went to the southeast side of the col, an area where there were many bushes.
In some places, the trees are very tall, so there are only deciduous leaves and a few shade-loving plants underneath, but the trees here are all short, and there are many flowers and plants growing under the trees.
The three Kumano turned into their original forms and walked slowly. After walking for a while, Kumano suddenly stood up and looked in one direction: "It smells like a Dimetrodon."
The three of them discussed it, smeared mud on their bodies to cover up the smell, and then chose a bush to hide in.
They hoped that the Dimetrodon would come towards them, but it did not do as they expected...it actually walked further and further away.
They could only move to another place to continue.
As a result, this time, they actually saw a ridge-backed dragon about three meters long nibbling on a clump of ferns.
The back of the dinosaur is covered with a thick layer of scales and sharp bone spurs. Many carnivorous dinosaurs do not like to prey on them, but Kumano is very good at dealing with this kind of dinosaur.
"Wait, Xiong Bai will attract its attention, I will turn it over and Hu Yue will attack!" said Xiong Ye. The back of the ridgeback dragon made it difficult for them to bite it, but its belly was its weak point. Although his claws were ten centimeters long, they were not sharp enough. Hu Yue was different. With one claw, Hu Yue could easily tear open the belly of the ridgeback dragon.
Of course, Hu Yue couldn't flip a three-meter-long ridgeback dragon over...
The three of them hid, looking at the ridgeback dragon as if they were looking at a small mountain of meat.
The author has something to say:
Regarding the weight of the people in the article:
The Kodiak Island brown bear is the largest bear in the world, with adult males weighing over 680 kilograms and eventually more than a ton. This bear stands more than three meters tall and can smell odors 1.5 kilometers away.
A male lion usually weighs around 200 kilograms, and the heaviest weighs a little over 300 kilograms.
The weight of a tiger is similar to that of a lion. When a tiger and a lion of the same weight fight, the tiger usually wins.
The Chinese black bear weighs about 150 kilograms.
As for mammoths... Today's male African elephants generally weigh about five or six tons, and adult mammoths used to weigh between 10 and 15 tons, which is not in the same heavyweight class as the ones mentioned above.
