Chapter 210 Drogo Arrives
They had seen camps of human tribes before, but they had never seen anything like this.
At first glance, this grassland village was so different from the human camp he had in mind that for a moment, Drogo looked a little dazed.
"Drogo, please."
Zhou Xu raised his hand and led Drogo into the camp.
Since it has been decided to bring them here and let Drogo and the others stay in the camp temporarily, Zhou Xu doesn't mind giving them a brief introduction to the internal layout of the camp. Anyway, there is nothing that cannot be seen by others.
Along the way, Drogo was amazed at things he had never seen before.
During this process, Drogo inevitably noticed the hyena corpses that were being processed.
"Have you encountered any hyena people recently?"
"Yesterday."
Zhou Xu did not shy away from speaking the truth directly and openly.
"Hyenas have attacked our village before. With the heavy snow, they probably couldn't find food, so they came to us in groups, trying to steal our food."
After hearing these words, Drogo suddenly understood.
[The downside of having a fixed camp is that the enemy can come at any time.]
At this moment, Zhou Xu didn't care what Zhuo Ge was thinking, but continued to talk...
"But it wasn't a big deal. After a short fight, they ran away on their own and I killed a few of them."
Having said that, Zhou Xu pointed to the body of a hyena man thrown on the ground.
"This could be the new hyena queen, but I'm not sure. To me, all hyenas look alike. Have you seen one, Drogo? Come and check it out."
“…”
My goodness, what he said before was quite normal, but now, he is completely confused.
Drogo was slightly confused, and immediately set his sights on the hyena man's corpse.
Although they all looked similar, the wounds were different. Among the several hyena corpses, only one had its throat cut by a knife! Drogo had only glanced at it casually before, and really didn't pay much attention.
Now, after taking a closer look, he quickly discovered that the corpse Zhou Xu was pointing at was slightly larger than the other corpses.
[If this is really the Hyena Queen, then Zhou Xu has killed two Hyena Queens in succession, right? ]
Something that he had never done once since he was born, Zhou Xu actually achieved twice in such a short period of time?
When he thought of this, he felt a little complicated.
But looking at the corpse, Drogo still said what he meant...
"I haven't seen the new hyena queen, so I don't know if this is it."
Judging from the corpses in front of him, Zhou Xu was indeed referring to the largest one, but this cannot be used as an absolute basis.
Because hyena people themselves have individual differences.
Some are more burly, some are relatively thin. Strictly speaking, even if it’s just about size, there are no two hyena men that are exactly the same.
Moreover, just looking at the hyena queen that Zhou Xu was referring to, her size was obviously smaller than the previous hyena queen.
Of course, this cannot be used as a basis.
The hyena people were severely damaged after suffering heavy losses from them, and there might not be any hyena people as strong as the former queen in the tribe.
Under such circumstances, it is not impossible that a hyena queen was chosen from among the taller ones.
This problem troubled Drogo greatly.
Compared to Drogo who suddenly became distressed, Zhou Xu behaved very casually and freely.
"Forget it, let's not dwell on this issue. Regardless of whether the hyena queen is dead or not, their tribe doesn't have many people left now."
"When they attacked our village, they had already pulled out the younger ones to make up the numbers. Another group of them died in this wave. I think they won't dare to act rashly in the short term."
"Compared to the hyena man, it is more important to deal with the saber-tooth tiger first."
In just a few words, Zhou Xu quickly brought the topic to the saber-toothed tiger.
For now, the saber-toothed tiger is indeed a more troublesome existence for him.
The swift speed and powerful explosive power are both superior to those of the hyena people.
Once a battle breaks out between them and the saber-toothed tiger, the saber-toothed tiger will use this advantage to try to break through and escape, and they will not be able to stop it at all.
On the other hand, the hyena people are no longer a force to be reckoned with. As they are defending their village positions, they no longer pose much of a threat to their grassland village.
When leaving this area, Drogo couldn't help but turn his head and take a few more glances at the hyena corpses that were being processed.
Obviously, he was still a little curious about these corpses, and at the same time, he had a lot of thoughts in his mind...
[What did Zhou Xu and his men do with the hyena man's corpse? They couldn't possibly want to use it as food, right?]
In the end, Drogo couldn't help but remind...
"Zhou Xu, although food is scarce now, you can't eat the meat of hyena people."
When he spoke of the latter part, Drogo couldn't help but reveal a deep worry on his face.
Don't forget, Zhou Xu will solve their food problem in the next few days. Could this solution be to eat this? If so, he will definitely refuse to the end.
"The elders in our tribe have always told us since we were young that we must never eat the meat of hyenas. Once we eat it, we will have severe abdominal pain and eventually die in agony. It is cursed meat!"
This was the first time Zhou Xu had heard Drogo's words.
But he could probably guess what was going on.
I'm afraid it's because there are a large number of bacteria and parasites in that flesh and blood.
"What are you talking about, Drogo? I have no intention of eating the flesh of hyena men."
"So what are you doing?"
Zhou Xu's answer made Zhuogo feel even more strange.
"Gather some resources."
Having said this, Zhou Xu paused.
"Although the meat of hyenas cannot be eaten, their skins are very thick. If we peel them off and process them, they can still be put to good use. The bones are also useful..."
At this moment, Zhou Xu just said a few words casually to let Drogo roughly understand why they dealt with the bodies of the hyena people, and he did not intend to go into details.
They have joined forces, and although the two sides can be said to have had a pleasant cooperation so far, they are still two forces after all, and some necessary measures should be concealed, so it is better to conceal them.
As for Zhou Xu's words, Zhuo Ge felt that the skin, which was covered with wounds, would not be of much use if it was peeled off.
But since Zhou Xu said so, he didn't ask any more questions.
After a quick look around, Zhou Xu and Drogo found a place to rest and talked about hunting saber-toothed tigers.
During the day, we mainly focused on searching, but we didn't know where the saber-toothed tiger had hidden.
At night, they retreated to the village and waited for the opportunity to come.
After all, he did not rule out the possibility that the saber-toothed tiger would become interested in them after tasting the sweetness.
