Chapter 74.2 - Giant Pig (1/2)
Ch74.2 - Giant Pig
When Xiong Ye returned to the tribe, Zhou Ji was busy flipping over and examining the chili peppers he had set out to dry in the sun on the platform outside their cave.
He had cut up and set out these chili peppers to dry a few days ago. They had already become sun-dried chili peppers by now, and he could fry them with oil later to make chili oil.
He rather missed the taste of chili oil.
It was then that he noticed Xiong Ye running back with a naked man on his back.
Zhou Ji: “……”
Zhou Ji very readily noticed that Xiong Ye was carrying a man on his back, but the people of the tribe didn’t discover this fact. They only saw that Xiong Ye was running over from afar while carrying something on his back and asked one after the other, “Xiong Ye, what did you bring back?”
“Is it for Zhou Ji?”
“There’s no more noise from that Barosaurus. Did you guys catch it?”
……
Someone else commented, “That Barosaurus really can’t be compared to that giant beast from before! We didn’t feel much of anything while it was thrashing and rolling around! I looked, and the dinosaurs in our territory didn’t even run away.”
At first, they had been worried that when the Barosaurus was poisoned, the resulting disturbance would be too big and drive away the dinosaurs that they had finally attracted back to their tribe with much difficulty.
Fortunately, although the Barosaurus had kicked up a fuss, the dinosaurs hadn’t run away at all.
Zhou Ji felt a little helpless when he heard these words.
Back then, when he had been in a frenzy, not only had he created a disturbance, he had also sent out a lot of energy and killed countless dinosaurs… How could the dinosaurs in the area not flee? This Barosaurus was much milder in comparison… It hadn’t even destroyed that many trees.
“Xiong Ye, who is that person on your back?” Zhou Ji asked.
“It’s a stranger. He’s poisoned!” Xiong Ye spoke while he set the man down on the ground in the valley.
They didn’t know where this man had come from. He wasn’t about to bring him back to his own home!
Hearing this, Zhou Ji came out and went down to the valley to check on the man’s condition.
This man had indeed been poisoned, but the poisoning wasn’t too severe. Of course, if he didn’t save him, he would definitely suffer quite a bit. At the same time, he also had other injuries on his body. For example, Zhou Ji didn’t know how this man’s leg had ended up so crooked.
Zhou Ji said, “Cover him with a piece of animal hide.”
This man was naked, and Xiong Ye also felt that it was a bit inappropriate. Now, when he heard Zhou Ji’s words, he immediately found a piece of animal hide and covered him up.
Zhou Ji then said, “Give him some water.”

Fortunately, the people of the tribe didn’t mind that fact at all. They soon cleaned up the man who was still lying there, and even thoughtfully helped him wipe his skin clean.
Xiong Ye had already come back with the herbs. Zhou Ji had him feed them to the man, then straightened the man’s bones through the animal hide.
While they were doing this, Xiong Ye had already briefly told them about their encounter with the man.
According to the situation when they met, this person shouldn’t be a member of the Giant Tiger Tribe and was probably a wandering beastman. Otherwise, the injury on his leg wouldn’t have been left unattended for such a long time.
His crystal core was darker than Xiong Ye’s, making him a orange-level wandering beastman… If they could make him stay, the Big Bear Tribe would have another powerful fighter.
Zhou Ji used his energy to help the man heal his leg, then had Xiong Ye feed him some herbs that would sap his strength and weaken him.
“He’s alright now. Take him to the collective cave to rest.” Zhou Ji instructed, then asked Xiong Ye, “That Barosaurus…”
“The Barosaurus is dead! Everyone, come with me to help carry back the Barosaurus!” Xiong Ye hollered, then led the people of the tribe out towards the mountain at a run.
There was so much meat! They had to hurry up and bring it back!
Zhou Ji finished speaking and went back to their cave. He was thinking about making hot pot for Xiong Ye that night.
He could use oil to stir fry the dried chili peppers to make them more fragrant, add water to make a hot pot soup, then boil dinosaur meat in the soup. It would definitely be delicious!
Zhou Ji was looking for vegetables to cook with the hotpot when the priest suddenly climbed up to the entrance of his cave, “Zhou Ji!”
“What’s wrong?” Zhou Ji asked.
“That man’s leg was crooked when he first arrived, but it’s now straight again!” The priest exclaimed.
The priest had been down in the valley the entire time. He had seen the man’s condition when Xiong Ye had set him down––his calf had been bent, and it had been bent very badly… This was the mark of a blasphemer.
Although the people of their tribe didn’t care about this, now that this person’s leg had become like this, his life would definitely be difficult in the future.
Yet in the end, he didn’t know how Zhou Ji had done it, but the man’s leg was now fine. It wasn’t crooked anymore!
“Oh… I helped him straighten out his bones.” Zhou Ji said.
