He did not like to eat fish, but his technique of catching fish was actually better than Xiong Ye, after all, his beast form was very good at swimming.
Not long later, the huge polar bear caught more than ten fish, and these fish, were all given to Xiong Ye.
Zhou Ji had to clean the fish before eating, and he was not good at cleaning.
Xiong Ye was used to cleaning the fish, he first scraped the fish scales, then removed the fish head, and dug out the fish intestines …
The people from the Ursa Major tribe saw this, and were already used to it.
The messengers of the Beast Deity were very meticulous when eating, they even removed the barley and ground it into powder before eating, it was very normal for them to eat fish and not fish scales.
On the other hand, one-eyed wolf and the rest who were caught, were a little surprised when they saw this — these people were too meticulous, this kind of small fish, shouldn't they just roast it and eat it? Some people felt that roasting it was troublesome, and directly chewed it.
It was just a small tribe in the Mang Desolate Forest, and they actually lived as meticulously as the priests in the Beast Deity Palace!
As they thought about it, they suddenly realised something was wrong.
Previously, they did not think much of this team, after all, in the Mang Desolate Forest, most of the tribes were very backward … but now, what did these people take out?
They actually took out pots and bowls!
Why would there be pots and bowls in the Mang Desolate Forest? Wasn't this something that only the Beast Deity Palace had?
Just as they were feeling depressed, they saw these people pouring into the pots … was that barley shelled?
They had heard people say that the priests of the Beast Deity Palace were very particular when it came to eating, they would only eat barley shelled. At that time, they thought it was impossible, they did not expect to see it in the Mang Desolate Forest.
Not only that, they poured out so much barley … were they planning for everyone to eat shelled barley rice?
Too extravagant!
Zhou Ji did not know what these people were thinking, he asked them to take out the barley to eat, because the barley was wet.
As for why it was shelled … all the barley belonged to him, when Xiong Ye had nothing to do in the winter, he would let Xiong Ye shelled the barley, and at the same time, practice his control of energy, so naturally, they had a lot of shelled barley in their house.
He had originally planned to eat the barley slowly during the two months of traveling back and forth, but now that it had rained continuously, the barley had been soaked in water, so he simply took it out for everyone to eat.
If the barley was used to cook rice, the cooked rice would be a little hard. However, the barley was damp, which was equivalent to being soaked for a period of time. It was just right for cooking rice.
Zhou Ji took out some oil and poured it into the pot that had already been filled with barley and water. He then asked someone to cut up the bacon and spread it on top of the barley. Finally, he took out some pickled vegetables and placed them on top of the pot. Then, he covered the pot and asked someone to cook.
They brought a total of five pots from the tribe. Now, each pot was filled with smoked meat, salted vegetables, and barley rice. In addition, Zhou Ji also brought two pots that belonged to him and Xiong Ye. At this moment, he took out some vegetables that he and Xiong Ye had collected along the way, preparing to stir-fry two dishes and make a fish.
They didn't pay much attention to the stir-fried dishes. People in the tribe didn't like vegetables very much, but Zhou Ji's fish …
Zhou Ji used to cook pickled cabbage fish and boiled fish, which were all boiled in water. However, this time, he planned to make a different method.
He prepared to make grilled fish, which was the kind that was roasted and then stewed with rich broth and vegetables. He had eaten it before the end of the world, and it was very delicious.
Of course, he didn't know the specific method, and he didn't have enough seasonings, but he didn't mind making a counterfeit version.
After brushing oil on the fish and roasting it for a while, Zhou Ji put all the fish into the pot and stewed it with seasonings. He also added some dried mushrooms.
Although there was no soy sauce, the broth was made by frying chilies in oil. It was very fragrant. The moment the people of the big bear tribe smelled it, they couldn't help drooling.
When the grilled fish was ready, the barley rice was also ready.
When cooking, Zhou Ji added some oil, and the grains of barley looked very oily. He stirred it a little, and after mixing the bacon and pickles on the surface with the rice … the rice was really fragrant!
"Give me a pot of rice, you guys can take the rest." Zhou Ji said.
Xiong Qi immediately brought him a pot of rice, and then went to get the food. The barley rice and salted vegetables were provided by Zhou Ji, so it was not too much for Zhou Ji to ask for a pot of rice.
Xiong Qi gave a small bowl of rice to everyone in the team, and then carried his bowl to Zhou Ji's side, looking at him eagerly.
Zhou Ji gave him a fish. After all, those fish were caught by Xiong Qi.
Xiong Qi took the fish and left contentedly. After eating the smoked meat, barley rice and grilled fish, he started to grill meat to fill his stomach.
Xiong Qi and the others had to eat some more grilled meat to be full, but Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye didn't need to.
A whole pot of barley rice, a dozen fish, and some vegetables were enough for the two of them. They didn't need to eat anything else.
However, Xiong Ye still didn't like to eat vegetables. Zhou Ji could only divide the vegetables into two equal portions, and told him to eat one portion. Then, he saw Xiong Ye finish the vegetables first, and then focused on the barley rice and grilled fish, eating them with relish.
One-eyed Wolf and the others drooled as they watched.
At the same time, they felt a little regretful.
This tribe was obviously different from the tribes in the Mang Forest that they knew. They shouldn't have been so careless, thinking of robbing people and things!
One-eyed Wolf didn't say anything. She used her remaining eye to look at Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji, but her subordinates weren't so calm. "That smell is really fragrant …"
"The barley we eat in our tribe is cooked with the shell on. I didn't expect it to be eaten like this."
"Even if you know it can be eaten like this, you still can't do it. Did anyone help you remove the shell?"
"That fish looks delicious, but I don't know what they put in it."
"No wonder Zhu Zhan would follow them …"
…
In the entire team, Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji ate the best. The others were all the same. Zhu Zhan's subordinates only got a small bowl of barley rice.
One-eyed Wolf and the others thought that this tribe had already been taken over by Zhu Zhan, but now they knew that wasn't the case. Zhu Zhan and the others looked … like they had joined this tribe.
This tribe was too powerful.
Talking about Zhu Zhan, these people suddenly thought of something wrong. "Didn't they say that Zhu Zhan's legs were crooked?" According to the news they heard, Zhu Zhan was exiled because his legs were crooked. But the Zhu Zhan they saw before, his legs were fine!
"That's what I heard … But that news might be fake," said the person who had just come to the Mang Forest.
In this day and age, it was normal for all kinds of news to be wrong. Those people didn't care, but Zhou Ji looked at that person and suddenly asked, "I'm quite curious about the Beastmen Continent. I heard Zhu Zhan talk about it before … Is there any other news from there recently?"
"Yes," said that person.
Zhou Ji said, "Tell me about it." Although they didn't plan to go to the Beastmen Continent, they still had to understand it.
That person didn't know Zhou Ji's identity, but just from the fact that Zhou Ji was the only one wearing clothes, he knew that his identity wasn't ordinary. He said, "Recently, there was big news, very shocking news. Not long ago, a new Beast King appeared!"
"A new Beast King?" Zhou Ji asked, "Which tribe is he from?"
"He's not from any tribe. He's a stray beastman called Shi Li." That person's face was full of admiration. "He's not from a large tribe, but he can actually become a Beast King. He's really amazing!"
Zhou Ji: "…" Did he hear wrongly? Shi Li?
The people from the Big Bear Tribe were roasting meat and chatting, so they didn't pay attention to this side. Only Xiong Ye, who was sitting beside him, also heard the name. "That person is called Shi Li?"
"Yes, he's called Shi Li. His beast form is that of a male lion, and he's very powerful! He suddenly appeared, and no one has heard of him before. He probably became a Beast King because he ate the Beast God Fruit … If only I could become a Beast King too. " This person's face was full of envy when he talked about Shi Li, but he actually didn't know much about Shi Li, nor had he seen him before.
Zhou Ji asked a few more questions, but he couldn't get any more information. As a result, he couldn't confirm that the Beast King Shi Li was the Shi Li from their tribe.
If that person wasn't the Shi Li from their tribe, then this new Beast King had nothing to do with him at all. But if this new Beast King was the Shi Li from their tribe …
His Xiong Ye was actually weaker than Shi Li. This made Zhou Ji a little unhappy.
It was a pity that he never saw the Beast God Fruit again. Otherwise, he would really find it for Xiong Ye to eat.
It was already dark, but Zhu Zhan hadn't returned yet. Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye didn't wait and went back to sleep.
In the tent, Xiong Ye said, "Zhou Ji, do you think that new Beast King is Shi Li?"
"I don't know either. It has nothing to do with us," Zhou Ji said.
Xiong Ye thought about it and felt that it was true.
Even if that Beast King was Shi Li, it had nothing to do with him. No, it might have something to do with him. "I think there's something wrong with Shi Li. Do you think … he will harm our tribe?"
Zhou Ji knew how much Xiong Ye liked Shi Li back then. He didn't expect that now, Shi Li had become someone he had to be wary of …
However, Shi Li was indeed not a good person. He was sinister, cunning, and scheming.
Back when Shi Li was still in the tribe, Zhou Ji didn't care about him because he was weak. That kind of character wouldn't amount to much. But if he really became a Beast King …
Zhou Ji was a little worried, but he wasn't too worried.
Since he could scare Mammoth Heaven away, he should be able to scare Shi Li away too.
"Even if he really is Shi Li, he's in the Beastmen Continent now. He definitely won't return for a while," Zhou Ji said.
Xiong Ye nodded. Just as he was about to sleep with Zhou Ji, he suddenly said, "There's the smell of blood."
He immediately went out. Zhou Ji sighed — Zhu Zhan was back. He wouldn't be able to sleep for a while.
Zhu Zhan had indeed returned.
When he returned, he was dragging a dinosaur that weighed about five to six tons. This dinosaur's head had been bitten off, and its body was a mess. No one could recognize what dinosaur it was.
Zhu Zhan threw the dinosaur down. Only then did everyone notice that he was also injured.
The wounds weren't big, but there were a lot of them. They should have been left by that dinosaur … With his strength, he could completely avoid getting injured when hunting. Therefore, he must have done this on purpose.
"Heh …" One-Eyed Wolf sneered. "Now you know how to feel. Unfortunately, it's too late! Your woman might be dead by now! "
Just as she finished speaking, she was slapped by Zhu Zhan, and she fell.
Zhu Zhan's subordinates dragged the dinosaur away and dealt with it silently. Zhu Zhan came to Zhou Ji. "Zhou Ji, I want to go back. Is there any way?"
Zhou Ji said, "You can tie up some big logs and make a boat."
Actually, making a boat wasn't a big deal. Zhu Zhan's biggest problem was that he didn't have enough strength.
According to Zhu Zhan, there were many powerful creatures in the river. It was easy to cross the river, but it was very difficult to avoid being eaten by these creatures.
Zhu Zhan hugged his head. "If I was alone, I would give it a try. But …" If he wanted to go back, the people who followed him would definitely go with him. At that time, there would definitely be casualties.
Moreover, if he died in the river, then there would be nothing left. He didn't know what would happen to Zhu Zhu and his child …
Zhu Zhan originally planned to increase his strength before going back. But now, he couldn't wait any longer.
After asking Zhou Ji, Zhu Zhan silently sat at the side. He didn't speak, nor did he eat.
Early the next morning, everyone started to eat the dinosaur that Zhu Zhan brought back last night.
Zhou Ji also helped Xiong Ye roast a big piece.
When he was roasting the meat, Zhu Zhan came over again. "Zhou Ji, thank you for saving me back then … This time, I will be leaving after sending you to the Beach Tribe."
