Chapter 158 – Battle (2/2)

Not sure if what the Drumming tribe’s crocodiles spit out into the water moon canal are exactly those gastroliths in their stomach.

The part of the river in the tribe that was the muddiest and turbulent produced this type of bright Water Moonstones, this is really a mysterious place.

After looking at the stone, Shao Xuan carefully put it into the rattan basket at the side.

After seeing Shao Xuan’s actions, Ping’s opinion of him rose. Taking out the stone that was just put in from the basket, and shoving into Shao Xuan’s hands, she said “Take it, wait till when you go out, you can still trade this for a lot of good stuff. After you exchange this for something you want with other tribe members, you will then know the value of this Water Moonstone.”

This was the feeling of becoming a tyrannical nouveau riche, such a big piece, won’t this make him feel distressed, his heart would ache if he spent it.

Ping also did not say more, after pushing the stone to Shao Xuan, she quickly went back to receive the stones that Chen Jia threw up onto the bank.

“Thank you.” Shao Xuan then put the stone into his animal skin bag and helped Ping look after the rattan basket.

Tonight was not calm, danger was lurking. Not only Shao Xuan, but also the Drumming tribe’s members were all set up ready. Every year at this time, many incidents would happen. Therefore they were already used to it and made preparations for battle. This is why they let their children collect the stones, adults would be alert of their surroundings, and at any time they found an irregularity, they would enter battle mode.

Not far from the water moon canal, Fu Shi and his partners were surveying the area. However, his heart was still concerned about the situation at the canal, not knowing how his family was doing this year.

“I think that this year my family’s harvest will not be less.” Fu Shi said.

“My family will definitely not be less than you!” The person beside Fu Shi exclaimed.

“I don’t hope for too much, just not to be the least.” Another person sounded.

“Good for nothing!”

“Ai, even if I worry about it, I still won’t be able to change it, so better not hold on too much hope.”

A few of them were talking, while someone who went to inquire about the situation at the water moon canal came over.

“Fu Shi, your family struck it rich this year! Your house’s area was the brightest!” Someone came, out of breath, and said.

“Ah Ha!” Fu Shi got excited and couldn’t help but jump a few rounds on the spot. That’s great! En, when it’s time for trading, I will trade for some good stuff, get a few beautiful clothings and gift them to Ping, trade for some good quality stone weapons for Chen Jia…..

A few others were like Fu Shi, their houses although did not gain as much as Fu Shi’s this year, but their harvests were not too little. When it’s time to go out to trade, what should they exchange for?

While thinking, Fu Shi’s face tensed up, the muscles under his skin bulged up, making his already strong body even more sturdy. The black lines of his scale-like totem patterns grew all over his body. Both his legs burst out a tremendous force, disappearing from where he was, in one step chasing after the silhouette that was rushing away from here.

Fu Shi suddenly held his stout arm covered with totem patterns up high, every muscle was filled with power, and the skin, under the expansion of the muscles, became tighter. His fingers clenched into a fist and punched towards the silhouette. Like a shot of a bullet landing onto the silhouette’s body.

Bang!

The originally fleeing silhouette was pounded hard into the ground.

The first punch landed, now came the second punch.

Ka!

Fu Shi’s punch directly smashed the opponent’s brain.

The guy lying on the ground had totems tattoos different from the Drumming tribe’s. Due to his death, the tattoos swiftly disappeared.

The sound of Fu Shi’s breathing was not the usual wheezing sound, but a burst of coarse and loud grunts. Dense black markings gradually extended around the tip of his pupils.

Cold eyes flashed past, Fu Shi had just killed one person, but he wasn’t stopping at that. Both his legs’ muscles expanded instantaneously, his body that was just now standing upright was now low on the ground on all fours. Both his palms and feets vigorously pushed against the ground, launching himself towards another silhouette. The surrounding wet mud splashed from the impact of his sudden burst.

Competing with a crocodile by running is okay, but competing with instantaneous movements, that is difficult.

Crocodiles advantage is not with its speed, but with its response and its explosive force. You might be able to run past them, but at the time you start running, whether they will give you the chance to run first is the point. Or maybe even before you run, they may have already bitten you.

The Drumming tribe’s members have many similar traits to crocodiles. Their strength and speed may not be that great, but their explosive outbreak always overwhelms the opponents.

Yet another silhouette was clamped, the next moment, he was twisted off from the middle.

The two guys were too fast just now, therefore Fu Shi did not have enough time to inform the rest while dealing with the two of them. He took advantage of this gap to unleash a roar like that of an ancient beast from his throat.

The roar was like a clashing sword, passing over the damp area, through the woods, splitting the quiet night.
