Stone Age Husband Raising Journal

Chapter 144 Market

Back when Shi Li was still with the Big Bear Tribe, Xiong Ye had already felt that there was a problem with Shi Li’s brain.

And... it had been a sudden problem.

He used to be perfectly fine, so Xiong Ye still had no idea what had gone wrong. One day, Shi Li suddenly changed and had become like a completely new person. Many of his ideas and habits became inexplicable, and now... Now, the problem with Shi Li seemed to have become even more serious.

“Tribal chief, I also think that there’s a problem with his brain. He doesn’t understand normal people words!” Xiong Qi followed up.

Xiong Ye became more and more certain of his guess. For a moment, he even started to feel sympathetic towards Shi Li.

But Shi Li’s expression turned dark, “Xiong Ye, what nonsense are you talking about?”

To have someone say that there was something wrong with his brain... Shi Li was really furious now, and he released the energy contained within his body.

Such powerful energy swept through and pressured everyone... Many people couldn’t bear it and retreated, but the Big Bear Tribe and Giant Pig Tribe didn’t feel anything–the Rhinoceros Beast King had blocked all the energy for them.

“Lion Beast King!” The Rhinoceros Beast King looked at Shi Li, “What are you trying to do?”

“Rhinoceros Beast King, this is what I should be asking you! They insulted me, but you’re actually helping them...” Shi Li looked at the Rhinoceros Beast King, “Are you trying to go against me?”

“I do want to go against you. So what?” The Rhinoceros Beast King snorted and released more energy from his body.

Shi Li’s expression changed, and he flinched back slightly.

In his previous life, the Rhinoceros Beast King had already been dead for many years by the time he had become a Beast King. That was why he had never taken the Rhinoceros Beast King seriously, and had even looked at him with sympathy in his gaze before.

But now, he could clearly sense the Rhinoceros Beast King’s might.

If the person standing here was the him from his previous life, he definitely wouldn’t be afraid of the Rhinoceros Beast King, but now... He was just a half-baked Beast King.

“Rhinoceros Beast King, you are my senior, and I don’t want to get into conflict with you.” Shi Li found himself a way to retreat with some semblance of dignity, then glanced towards the people of the Big Bear Tribe. “As for this Big Bear Tribe... Do you really think that I care about such a broken tribe? From today on, I will break off all relationships with the Big Bear Tribe! In the future, if anything happens to you, don’t come looking for me!”

Shi Li turned around and left after he finished speaking.

This person was finally gone... Xiong Ye relaxed a lot, then looked at the Rhinoceros Beast King, “Rhinoceros Beast King, thank you.”

“No need for thanks.” The Rhinoceros Beast King replied. “I’ll take you to the place where the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe is staying.” He now couldn’t wait to settle these people down so that he could prevent having more and more people pay attention to the fact that he now had another ‘father’.

“Alright.” Xiong Ye agreed, and followed after the Rhinoceros Beast King.

Along the way, the people of the Big Bear Tribe were still indignantly talking about what had just happened. Xiong Qi said, “Xiong Ye, that Shi Li is really no good. If it weren’t for our tribe, he would’ve reached the end of the road a long time ago. But now he actually dares to say that we’re a broken, crappy tribe!”

“He’s too cold blooded. He said so much to us today, but he never even asked about his mother and brother.” Someone else spoke up. They were all from the same tribe, and everyone had eaten together and lived similar lives, so there was no need to talk about offering aid to others. But now that Shi Li had become a Beast King, not only had he left the tribe, he even tossed away his mother and younger brother who couldn’t do much work. That was too much!

Xiong Qi continued, “Indeed. He used to always express his care for his mother and brother, but now it seems that it’s not the case.”

While the people of the Big Bear Tribe were still talking about Shi Li, the people around them still felt that the people of the Big Bear Tribe were crazy.

In any case, driving away a Beast King was something they would never do no matter what.

However, some others had noticed other things, “Just now, that youth called one of the men from the Big Bear Tribe ‘grandfather’, then called the Rhinoceros Beast King ‘father’?”

“The Rhinoceros Beast King also gave up the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe’s spot for the Big Bear Tribe?”

“So... The Rhinoceros Beast King’s father is from the Big Bear Tribe?”

......

Having made this connection, they had a sense of suddenly seeing the light. Someone even said, “Perhaps the Big Bear Tribe drove the Lion Beast King away for the sake of the Rhinoceros Beast King? One tribe can’t hold two Beast Kings!”

“That’s most likely the case!” Someone else said.

Someone also said, “Sure enough, based on that clash just now between the Rhinoceros Beast King and the Lion Beast King, it seems that the Rhinoceros Beast King is more powerful.”

“After all, the Lion Beast King is still young!”

......

While everyone who had watched the confrontation between Shi Li and the Big Bear Tribe were still talking about it amongst themselves, Shi Li had already returned back to his own residence.

He hated the Rhinoceros Beast King very much at the moment. Only thinking about how the Rhinoceros Beast King would be dead in a few years made him feel a little better.

Hold on...

Shi Li suddenly frowned–that youth from before had called the Rhinoceros Beast King father!

Could it be that the Rhinoceros Beast King’s son hadn’t died?

Shi Li was still pondering this matter when Shen Yue came over.

“Shi Li, I made you some food.” Shen Yue smiled gently at Shi Li, then took out some pottery bowls from a basket.

One pottery bowl contained boiled meat with sauce made of ground plants poured on top. Another bowl was filled with roasted meat cut into small pieces, and of the remaining two bowls, one was filled with vegetables boiled in water, and the other with fresh fruit.

The quantity was small, but it was exquisitely prepared.

Shi Li said, “Thank you. This food looks delicious.”

Shen Yue smiled slightly.

Shi Li asked, “Shen Yue, I just encountered the Rhinoceros Beast King outside. He’s back? Did he find his son?”

“Yes. The Rhinoceros Beast King found his son and has already returned.” Shen Yue said. “Fortunately, he didn’t miss the Beast God Sacrifice, but the Elephant Beast King hasn’t arrived yet.”

Xiang Tian wouldn’t be coming, as he was already dead... Shi Li thought this in his heart even as he frowned–he hadn’t expected that the Rhinoceros Beast King’s son really hadn’t died!

Since the Rhinoceros Beast King’s son wasn’t dead, he wouldn’t go into a frenzy and lead the people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe to attack other tribes... If that was the case, then did that mean that he wouldn’t die either?

“How did the Rhinoceros Beast King find his son?” Shi Li asked.

“The Rhinoceros Beast King said that the people of the Big Bear Tribe passed by and saved his son... Shi Li, the Big Bear Tribe that he mentioned should be the same one as yours. You can use that as a reason to build a good relationship with him.” Shen Yue had been at the Beast God Temple the whole time before coming to find Shi Li and didn’t know what had just happened outside at all. At this time, she just felt that the Big Bear Tribe that she’d looked down on before was pretty good–they had managed to catch the attention of a Beast King!

The corner of Shi Li’s lips twitched.

He hadn’t expected such a change to have occurred.

If it weren’t for him, the fate of the people of the Big Bear Tribe wouldn’t have changed, and the Rhinoceros Beast King’s son would’ve died. The Rhinoceros Beast King should actually be grateful to him!

“Shi Li?” Shen Yue was puzzled as she looked at Shi Li.

Shi Li’s smile was wry, “Shen Yue, I’m afraid that my relationship with the Rhinoceros Beast King can’t be improved...”

While Shi Li and Shen Yue were talking, the Rhinoceros Beast King had led the people of the Big Bear Tribe to the place that belonged to the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe.

The open space in front of the Beast God Temple was used as a market for trading various things between different tribes. At the same time, it was also a place for the people who had come to participate in the Beast God Sacrifice to set up camp.

There was a small area for the Giant Pig Tribe to live, but because the place wasn’t big, not very many people could stay there.

Even so, the Giant Pig Tribe’s treatment was already pretty good. Some small tribes that had come to participate in the Beast God Sacrifice had nowhere to settle down and could only live outside the huge market.

Quite a few people from the Big Bear Tribe and Giant Pig Tribe had come this time, and there were almost a hundred people in total. In fact, the Giant Pig Tribe’s space wasn’t big enough for them to live in, but now that the Rhinoceros Beast King wanted to give them the place that had belonged to the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe, they definitely had enough space to settle down.

The tribes that had Beast Kings were given the largest stretches of space here!

Only...

By the time the people of the Big Bear Tribe arrived at the place that belonged to the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe, the people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe had already settled down there.

These people had come in advance and had already taken over their space. They had also finished setting up their accommodations.

The leader of this group of people immediately came out as soon as he saw the Rhinoceros Beast King. This person who was in his thirties smiled and said, “Uncle, why did you come? Is something the matter?”

The Rhinoceros Beast King said, “Yes... Move away for me!”

“Uncle?” The man was a little confused.

“This place. Let them live here.” The Rhinoceros Beast King gestured to Xiong Ye and the others.

Although he was unhappy that Hai Feng had coaxed his son into calling him grandfather, he was still very grateful to the Big Bear Tribe. After all, they had saved his only son.

He wasn’t young anymore and was even a bit older than Hai Feng. Even if he wanted to have another child, he couldn’t anymore!

Additionally, he used to have a mate, and his relationship with his mate had been very good. After his mate had passed away after giving birth to Xi Baobei, he hadn’t wanted to find another mate.

“Uncle, this place belongs to our Giant Rhinoceros Tribe. Why do we have to give it to others?” The leader of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe was a little disgruntled.

“No reason. I told you to move, so move!” The Rhinoceros Beast King said.

“Uncle...”

“My temper is so good that you all became ambitious, am I right?” The Rhinoceros Beast King caught the man and directly tossed him out, “Move out!” He looked at the well-arranged accommodations in front of him and was filled with even more anger.

A few days ago, he had been so worried and had gone looking for his son everywhere. But what about these people? They had been here happily waiting for the Beast God Sacrifice!

Of course, the main reason why he would find these people displeasing to the eye was because Zhou Ji had said that his son had been attacked by people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe.

He now had a grudge against his own tribe, but at the end of the day, this was still his tribe and he couldn’t just kill his way over to ask for an explanation... Ultimately, he could only act like this.

After the Rhinoceros Beast King threw the person out, he looked anxiously at his own son.

He’d been a little violent... He was afraid that his son would be scared after watching.

Yet as a result, Xi Baobei wasn’t scared at all. He even said, “Father, you don’t throw people as high as grandfather does.”

The Rhinoceros Beast King: “......” Should he throw a few more and try his best so that his son would realize that he could also throw people very high?

The Rhinoceros Beast King wanted to do something, but finally chose not to–these people were from his own tribe, and it was better if he didn’t kill them.

“You guys haven’t left yet?” The Rhinoceros Beast King asked.

It was obvious that the Rhinoceros Beast King was angry. The people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe didn’t dare to delay and hurriedly ran off.

The Rhinoceros Beast King added, “Take your things with you!”

When these people heard this, they all started to run back to take away their things.

The man who had been tossed out by the Rhinoceros Beast King was actually the son of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe’s tribal chief. He had been respected ever since he was a child, so when he got up from the ground, he was actually very angry. He wanted to go up and tell the Rhinoceros Beast King exactly what he thought, but he was stopped and persuaded not to by the people around him.

The Rhinoceros Beast King turned a blind eye to all of this and only said to Xiong Ye, “Find a spot and settle in!”

The people of the Big Bear Tribe and Giant Pig Tribe all settled down right away.

There were some shabby houses here that had been built many years ago. It was unknown if they were built by the people of the Beast God Temple or the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe over the past years.

Houses that were old were more likely to leak, but it was obvious that these houses had been repaired somewhat and were now as good as new. They had really taken advantage of someone.

There were more than ten houses connected together, with a large shed placed out front that was used to store the goods that would be set out for trade.

The ordinary people of the Big Bear Tribe and Giant Pig Tribe shared one room per ten people and soon finished allocating their accommodation. The remaining few rooms were given to Xiong Ye to make arrangements.

Xiong Ye had Zhou Ji live in the best one, and then he gave one to Hai Feng, saved one for the Rhinoceros Beast King, and left two others open for storing things.

They didn’t bring much, so they settled in quickly. The people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe had barely left when they had already finished settling in.

And by this time, many people had already run over to watch the show, “Why were the people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe kicked out?”

“Which tribe is this?”

“What’s going on here? Did something happen to the Rhinoceros Beast King?”

......

Of course, nothing was wrong with the Rhinoceros Beast King, and even his servants were still waiting outside... These people quickly explained the details of the situation to those who had come to see the bustle, “The people living here are the people of the Big Bear Tribe. They saved the son of the Rhinoceros Beast King, so he gave them this place to live.”

“So that’s why!”

“This Big Bear Tribe is so lucky!”

“I heard before that the Rhinoceros Beast King went missing, it’s great that he’s alright...”

......

Everyone felt that there was nothing wrong with what the Rhinoceros Beast King had done after they learned the truth of the matter. It was only the people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe who felt very dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do to the Rhinoceros Beast King. Finally, the son of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe’s tribal chief who was in charge of the group could only say, “Send someone back to tell my father of this matter!”

The people of the Giant Rhinoceros Tribe were finally settled in the place that the Beast God Temple had originally allocated to the Giant Pig Tribe.

At the same time, the Big Bear Tribe who had occupied a large stretch of territory attracted more and more people’s curiosity–where had this Big Bear Tribe come from?

Although they didn’t know where the Big Bear Tribe had come from, everyone generally felt that the Big Bear Tribe was very powerful, until the patrol from the Beast God Temple shared what Shi Li had spoken about before, “That Big Bear Tribe came from the wild forest.”

“They’re very poor and didn’t even have enough to eat in the past!”

“The only reason they can have that spot is because they’re lucky...”

No wonder nobody had heard of the Big Bear Tribe before. It turned out that this Big Bear Tribe was actually from the wild forest...

A poor tribe like that probably didn’t have anything to take out to trade, right?

They clearly occupied one of the best positions but couldn’t take anything out to trade with... that wouldn’t look good at all! After learning about the Big Bear Tribe’s situation, there were already people who were waiting to see the Big Bear Tribe make fools out of themselves.

Juurensha: Ah, the trials of the Rhino Beast King...

xiin: just wait, guys, you’ll see just how ‘poor’ the Big Bear Tribe is... also, Happy New Year!
