Chapter 62 - Barley Porridge (1/2)
Ch62 - Barley Porridge
The people of the Little Brook Tribe were really shocked by the fact that the Big Bear Tribe actually raised dinosaurs, “You can raise dinosaurs?”
Even if some of the smaller dinosaurs weren’t scary, some dinosaurs, like the Centrosaurus, were huge and intimidating. It was very difficult for the Little Brook Tribe to take one of them down even if all of their warriors worked together!
How could such dinosaurs be raised?
“Of course. To raise dinosaurs, you just have to feed them grass. Then after they’ve grown up, we can kill them for meat.” Zhou Ji said.
The people of the Little Brook Tribe stared at Zhou Ji in awe.
Was that actually possible? How amazing!
Why hadn’t they thought of doing something like that before?
If it was possible to raise dinosaurs, they wouldn’t need to go hungry. If they didn’t go hungry, they could have more and more people in their tribe. If they had more people in their tribe, they wouldn’t have been defeated by the Giant Tiger Tribe…
While Bao Cheng’s thoughts were still endlessly churning, Xiong Bai turned to Xiong Ye, “Xiong Ye, who are these people?”
The last time the salt team returned, they had been missing many people. How had they managed to come back with more people this time?
“They are people from the Little Brook Tribe.” Xiong Ye said, “Let’s go back quickly. I have something to say to the tribal chief.”
The fact that the Giant Tiger Tribe wanted to attack them wasn’t good news.
However, the place that their tribe was located was easy to defend and difficult to attack. It wouldn’t be easy for the Giant Tiger Tribe to defeat them!
Additionally, they had killed so many people from the Giant Tiger Tribe. They probably didn’t have many warriors left to fight with, right?
Xiong Ye wasn’t very clear about the Giant Tiger Tribe’s situation, so he wanted to meet with Xiong He and the priest to have a proper discussion and think up a plan together.
The salt team’s return was a very big occasion!
Some people had already gone back to the tribe in advance to tell everyone else about their return, so when Xiong Ye and the others arrived, Xiong He, the priest, and everyone else were already waiting at the gate of their tribe.
Xiong Ye felt quite happy inside when he saw this scene.
This was the scene that he had always wanted to see. He hoped that he could do something good for the people of the tribe.
Xiong Ye saw the priest heading towards him excitedly and said, “Grandpa Priest, I’m back!”
Priest: “Zhou Ji, did you find the thing that the Beast God asked you to find?”
“That’s great!” The priest said, “Oh, right. The earth eggs have all been planted. Do you want to take a look?”
Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji had been gone for almost a month on this journey. Not only had the earth eggs all been planted, some of them had even begun to germinate.
The weather had been quite warm recently. If they were watered well, the earth eggs would bud very quickly.
“Alright.” Zhou Ji nodded.
Xiong Ye watched as his mate was taken away just like that…
There were still many things he needed to do as well. He needed to give the salt to the tribal chief, and he needed to discuss the Little Brook Tribe and Giant Tiger Tribe’s matters, so he could only watch helplessly as Zhou Ji left.
Forget it, Zhou Ji would return at night anyway!
Xiong Ye immediately went to talk to Xiong He. At this time, Zhou Ji had already come face to face with over two hundred baby dinosaurs of all types.
Hadn’t they said that there were only about a hundred? There were nearly three hundred baby dinosaurs here if he added them all up!
Forget it, the people of the Big Bear Tribe weren’t good with numbers…
Zhou Ji remained calm as he looked at all these baby dinosaurs.
All sorts of different dinosaurs were being raised together, and they were also being fed very chaotically. Even if these little dinosaurs had hardy survival skills, quite a few of them were already at death’s door…
“Separate the different types of dinosaurs and feed them the food that they like to eat.” Zhou Ji said.
“Why do we need to be so nice to them?” Xiong Ping didn’t understand. Although she fed on dinosaurs, she didn’t have any positive feelings towards them––many people in the tribe had been killed by dinosaurs!
“In order to raise them up and eat their meat.” Zhou Ji explained.
With this in mind, Xiong Ping, who had originally been a little dissatisfied, immediately recovered. However, she was still a little anxious, “These dinosaurs aren’t easy to raise. They eat too much, and the hunting team has to spend all day outside gathering grass in order to barely get enough to feed them.”
“How much grass do they eat every day?” Zhou Ji asked.
Zhou Ji had also considered the possibility that dinosaurs wouldn’t be easy to raise. Certain dinosaurs grew to be too big, and the bigger they were, the more they would eat.
That was why he had planned to try raising all sorts of dinosaurs before finally choosing the ones most suitable for raising as livestock.
