Ch72.1 – Fishing Net

The priest shared a bit of the chili sauce he had just received with Xiong Qi and the others, then left completely satisfied. Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye continued to eat.

After Xiong Ye had finished eating all the meat he had been given that day, he suddenly discovered that a quarter of the terror bird he had caught today was also gone.

This... It wasn’t any less than the amount he had eaten today!

Had he eaten quite a lot of Zhou Ji’s terror bird meat when he was eating earlier? Otherwise, how could so much of the terror bird have been eaten up?

While Xiong Ye was still caught up in this conundrum, Zhou Ji had already gone to lie down in their bed, “Let’s sleep.”

Xiong Ye went over and noticed that Zhou Ji’s stomach was actually bulging.

He touched Zhou Ji’s stomach and said, “Zhou Ji, you look like you’re about to have a child like this!”

Zhou Ji: Was Xiong Ye only able to describe stomachs this way? Were his vocabulary and language that poor?

That night, Xiong Ye went out for a few hours to cultivate before coming back.

Zhou Ji casually pulled him back into his arms and went to sleep.

The next morning, Zhou Ji used chili peppers to fry up some terror bird meat and combined it with roasted earth eggs to make breakfast for Xiong Ye.

Xiong Ye was very satisfied; this chili was really tasty!

He felt warm and cozy after eating such a hot and spicy meal.

When he climbed down from the cave after eating breakfast, someone immediately came up to ask Xiong Ye what he had eaten yesterday. Xiong Ye replied, “I ate dinosaur meat, but there was a spice called chili added to it. This kind of spice is very delicious.”

“Xiong Ye, when will we get to try that chili thing?” Someone who hadn’t been able to try the chili yesterday spoke up and asked.

“Grandpa Priest has already decided to plant chili peppers. Everyone will be able to eat it when they’re ready.” Xiong Ye said. As he spoke, he saw the priest returning from outside, his walking posture not quite right.

Xiong Ye asked, “Grandpa Priest, what’s wrong?” Was he walking this way because he was hurt?

The priest laughed awkwardly, “I’m fine...”

“What exactly happened to you?” Xiong Ye pressed.

The priest saw that Xiong Ye was still asking and said, “I just had diarrhea, and it hurt a little when I went. It was firey and spicy, and it must be because of that pepper from yesterday!”

The priest was old, and he always felt that food was nearly tasteless when he ate, but after tasting that chili pepper from yesterday...

How could there be such a great spice in this world!

He felt that adding it to anything made it appetizing!

As a result, he ate too much last night.

Not only that, while everyone else could only tolerate a tiny bit of chili sauce, he could put a lot of it on his food!

It was probably because of this that he had suffered from diarrhea this morning. Not only that, a certain area still burned with a fiery hot sensation, and it was especially painful.

The priest naturally noticed Xiong Ye’s expression, and he couldn’t help but say, “Don’t think that I’m the only one suffering. Maybe you’ll suffer too. As for Zhou Ji, I saw that he ate quite a lot yesterday. Tonight... Let’s see how you manage to sleep together!”

“What does diarrhea have to do with sleeping?” Xiong Ye didn’t understand. As long as the diarrhea wasn’t serious, it wouldn’t affect their sleep. If it was serious... This wouldn’t only affect their sleep!

Xiong Ye was quite confused. After hearing his words, the priest also asked him with some shock in his voice, “You don’t know about the matter of sleeping together?”

“What matter?” Xiong Ye asked.

“There are other men that are together in the tribe. Haven’t you seen them?” The priest continued to ask him.

Only then did Xiong Ye understand what the priest was talking about, “I’ve seen it... But that has nothing to do with diarrhea.”

The priest realized that something wasn’t quite right, “How is it unrelated?”

“How is it related?” Xiong Ye was even more confused.

The two of them looked at each other. Finally, the priest spoke again, “When you saw two men together, cough, cough, how did they do things together?”

“With hands.” Xiong Ye didn’t think twice before answering.

The priest: “......”

People in the tribe all said that Xiong Ye had tossed Zhou Ji about in bed until he was unable to get up, but in reality... This fellow didn’t even know how to sleep together with his mate!

The priest looked at Xiong Ye sympathetically––as the oldest man in the tribe, he had seen a lot and knew everything.

“Is that wrong?” Xiong Ye asked.

The priest was about to reply, but Zhou Ji arrived, “Xiong Ye, there’s no more water in our cave.”

When Xiong Ye heard this, he immediately said, “I’ll go and get water right away.”

He went to go fetch water with a bucket as soon as he finished speaking. Zhou Ji then looked at the priest, “I know what two men do together.”

The priest: “......” He had originally thought that since Xiong Ye didn’t know, Zhou Ji would be even more in the dark about it. Unexpectedly, Zhou Ji actually knew how to do it.

Zhou Ji knew, but Xiong Ye didn’t. This...

The priest sympathized even more with Xiong Ye.

Zhou Ji was very good to Xiong Ye, and it didn’t seem like he was unwilling to sleep with Xiong Ye, but he didn’t sleep with Xiong Ye even though he clearly knew what was supposed to happen... Could it be that he didn’t want to be the one on the bottom and wanted to top Xiong Ye instead?

The priest went back to his own cave while stroking his beard in contemplation.

He was old now. It was better if he didn’t interfere in these matters of young people in case he offended Zhou Ji.

As for Xiong Ye... He was so robust that it wouldn’t matter much if he was on the bottom...

But Zhou Ji’s weak body might not be up to the task of sleeping with Xiong Ye!

Zhou Ji saw that the priest had left and headed out of the tribe––he wanted to bring back more chili peppers.

In addition to making chili sauce, they could also be dried then fried with oil to make chili oil.

Chili oil was definitely more fragrant than chili sauce.

Zhou Ji produced quite a lot of chili peppers as well as some chili plant seedlings, then brought them back for the priest to plant.

“This is really such a good thing!” The priest was incredibly fond of the chili plant seedlings and hastily took them away to plant them. He also didn’t forget to ask for more chili peppers from Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji felt rather helpless. The priest was really going for it; he had already suffered from diarrhea after eating too much chili, but he still wanted more...

“This chili is too delicious!” The priest said, “Can’t you see that I can’t help it?”

“You’re not young anymore. It’s not good for you to eat too much of it.” Zhou Ji advised.

The priest laughed, “I’m not young anymore and won’t live for much longer. At this time, I should just do what I want to do and eat what I want to eat! If I treat myself badly even at this point, aren’t I just finding trouble with myself?” He had been very cautious with his own body before, worried that he would accidentally die, and their tribe would suffer and deteriorate because they didn’t have a priest.

But now, he was already at ease––Zhou Ji understood much, much more than he did!

He could completely rest in peace!

The priest obtained a lot of chili peppers from Zhou Ji and was ecstatic, but someone soon ran in from outside, “Priest, there are bugs growing amongst the earth eggs...”

“Hurry and have the children of the tribe catch them! Ah!” The priest who had originally wanted to relax had to rush off to see to the earth eggs.

He was really hard-working! He must compensate himself with more chili later!

The priest was ruminating about how to enjoy the chili peppers that night when he found himself surrounded by a crowd of people, “Priest, did Zhou Ji bring back more chili?”

“Priest, is chili delicious?”

“Priest, show me what the chili peppers look like.”

“Grandpa Priest, I want to eat some too...”

......

The priest finally said, “Alright, alright, stop talking! I’ll make it for you all to try tonight!”

That evening, the tribe all ate dinosaur meat and earth egg stew. It was cooked in two large pots, one of which contained chili peppers.

This chili pepper hadn’t been pre-fried with oil beforehand and was just directly added into the soup, so the smell it gave off wasn’t as fragrant. Also, because only a small amount had been added, the spice wasn’t very obvious in the stew.

However, most people felt that it tasted better with the chili peppers added in.

More importantly, the dinosaur meat had picked up a stronger unappetizing taste after being left out for two days, but it was no longer as noticeable after the chili was added.

Chili peppers really were good things!

Everyone was sweating all over as they ate, and after a round of eating and sweating, they all felt very comfortable.

The Big Bear Tribe was happily eating meat everyday, but on the other side, the atmosphere in the Giant Tiger Tribe wasn’t very good.

It was once again time to eat. Hu Tian ate in his animal form, turning back into his human form when he was finished. He broke off a piece of straw and used it to pick his teeth.

After cleaning his teeth, he asked, “Is Fu Xiao not back yet?”

“No.” Someone who sat under Hu Tian spoke out in frustration, “He might have fallen into the hands of the Big Bear Tribe!”

Fu Xiao was a member of the Giant Tiger Tribe. He had been very weak as a child and at the time, many people in the tribe had advised his mother to throw him away. His mother had been unwilling and insisted on raising Fu Xiao.

At the age of ten, Fu Xiao had awakened... as a mouse that was even smaller than the palm of a hand?

Everyone had been very disappointed at the time. His name had been changed to Shu Xiao, and he hadn’t had any status at all within the tribe. He was always bullied and didn’t dare to show his animal form.

Shu – mouse/rat

Yet in the end, Fu Xiao finally couldn’t stand being beaten up all the time and transformed into his animal form out of agitation. After taking on his animal form, he actually managed to fly away!

Only then did everyone realize that Fu Xiao hadn’t awakened as a mouse. Later on, they finally discovered that Fu Xiao had actually awakened as a bat.

His name changed from ‘Shu Xiao’ to ‘Fu Xiao’, and he became a very important member of the tribe––the tribe needed someone like him to do things for the tribe.

Even so, the people of the tribe still didn’t respect the weak Fu Xiao, and many tasks were heaped onto him to do. However, it wasn’t without its own benefits––Fu Xiao, who nobody had been willing to have a child with before, now had many female slaves.

To Hu Tian, Fu Xiao leading the dinosaurs to the Big Bear Tribe was an easy, small task. Unexpectedly, Fu Xiao had gone out to do such a simple thing and still hadn’t returned.

Fu Xiao had likely died in the hands of the Big Bear Tribe.

Hu Tian was very unhappy.

Others in the Giant Tiger Tribe were equally unhappy.

Fu Xiao’s animal form was really very useful. If they didn’t have Fu Xiao... It wouldn’t be easy for them to spy on other tribes in the future!

“Have someone go and investigate the Big Bear Tribe.” Hu Tian ordered.

Before, Hu Tian hadn’t taken the Big Bear Tribe seriously at all. However, he no longer dared to treat them lightly.

If this Big Bear Tribe had no ability, how could they have killed Hu Tiao and the others?

If they didn’t have any ability, how could Fu Xiao have gone there and not returned?

However, they probably didn’t have much ability... If they were so powerful, they definitely would’ve come looking for them instead!

Regardless, they should go and investigate first.

Hu Tian’s eyes narrowed. He had reached his current status not only due to his strength, but also because he was careful.

He wouldn’t casually make a move without first understanding more about the Big Bear Tribe.

In the Giant Tiger Tribe, they finally found a few people with small animal forms to go and investigate––people with smaller animal forms could hide, and it was easier to have them go and scout for information.
