Back then, the previous shaman led the wandering big bear tribe for a long time before they found a place to settle down. This place could block the attacks of large dinosaurs, and there were dense plants and rivers nearby. There was plenty of food, so it was a very suitable place to live.
However, there was no salt here, but for the big bear tribe at that time, it was nothing. They didn't eat much salt in the past.
What's more, the shaman quickly sent people to exchange salt in the direction he had gone before.
Later, they found a tribe and exchanged for salt. After that, they would exchange salt every spring. Sometimes, when there was not enough salt, they would go again in the fall.
"I wonder how much salt we got this time!"
"I want to join the salt exchange team and see the outside world!"
"I don't want to go. I heard there are many scary dinosaurs out there."
…
The people in the hunting team discussed and quickened their steps to meet up with the salt exchange team.
No matter what the people in the hunting team thought, they were very happy to know that the salt exchange team had returned. But when they saw the salt exchange team, their faces didn't look so good.
The salt exchange team seemed to be in a mess.
There were a total of fifty people in the salt-trading team. There were both men and women. Some of them were very strong warriors in the tribe, and some were very small beast-shaped people. Although these beast-shaped people had no fighting power, they were very good at hiding themselves in certain situations and could survive.
For example, there was a member of the salt trading team who was a mole. Not only was his animal form small, but his human form was also very weak. When hunting, other than using his animal form to ambush and suddenly scare his prey, he had no other use. However, he also had an advantage — after he transformed into his animal form, many dangerous carnivorous dinosaurs would ignore him. As for the beastly snakes or lizards that could swallow him in one bite, they would not provoke him in his human form.
In the wild, people like him could sometimes live longer.
But now, there were only twenty or so people left in the carefully selected team of fifty. Moreover, all of them had injuries on their bodies.
Seeing Xiong He and the others, the salt exchange team was very excited. Many of their eyes turned red. "Chief …"
"You guys are in danger?" Xiong He asked.
The people in the salt exchange team nodded, and one of them even fell to the ground.
Xiong Ye had long noticed that something was wrong with these people. Without thinking, he caught the man and found that his body was burning hot.
"Patriarch, he has a fever!" Xiong Ye was a little anxious.
"Let's go back immediately!" Xiong He said.
The members of the salt trading team all carried their belongings. Xiong He asked the hunting team members to help them carry their belongings, and also asked the hunting team members to carry some of the more seriously injured members of the salt trading team on their backs. Then they ran back to the tribe.
Xiong Ye was running at the very front.
He didn't catch any prey today, so he didn't expend much energy. In addition, he had a good meal last night, and he even ate five kilograms of meat in the morning. He was very strong!
Since Xiong Ye had left so quickly, Xiong He naturally wouldn't delay either. He didn't ask anything and brought his people back to the tribe first.
Lion Li followed behind, frowning slightly.
Xiong Ye hugged someone and ran, which made him a little uncomfortable.
At the same time, everything in front of him was a little different from what he remembered.
In his memory, he and Xiong Ye had gone hunting in the same group. They couldn't catch any prey, so they walked a little further. When they returned to the tribe, the salt trading team was already there.
And the person that Xiong Ye was hugging now was already dead.
Of course, because of his rebirth, many things had changed, so it was normal for things to be a little different.
Lion Li followed behind Xiong Ye and ran back to the tribe.
When they returned to the tribe, the gathering team had just returned and were tidying up the plants in the col. Of course, the priest was also there.
"Grandpa Priest, he has a fever. Take a look at him!" Xiong Ye said.
"Quickly put him down," the priest immediately said.
Xiong Ye immediately put the person on the ground. The priest came to the person's side and examined him.
There were a few long wounds on the person's body. The wounds had already begun to rot. His body was burning, and his lips were very white. He looked extremely weak.
"Go get a cup of salt water." The priest looked at Xiong Ye. "I have some in my cave."
Xiong Ye quickly returned with a cup of salt water. The priest took the salt water and poured it on the patient's body, using it to wash the patient's wounds.
Probably because he was in extreme pain, the unconscious patient began to twitch.
Even though Zhou Ji had seen many deaths, he still felt a little pain when he saw this scene. And after the priest used half a cup of salt water to wash the person's wounds, he added water to the remaining salt water and fed it to the person.
"Beast Deity above … What happened to you?" After doing all this, the priest asked. He took out a few herbs that he had picked today, added some salt, and placed them in a stone bowl. He used a stone rod to pound them into mud, and then applied it on the patient's wounds.
Zhou Ji watched from the side and increasingly sympathized with the patient.
Salt could kill germs, but rubbing salt on wounds was not something that made people feel good … Just as he thought of this, Zhou Ji noticed that Xiong Ye was very sad.
Xiong Ye was indeed very sad. He could notice that something was wrong with this person and accurately caught him because this person was his older half-brother.
His father was very powerful. When he was young, he was very liked by the women in the tribe, and he also had children with many women. Other than Xiong Ye, he had eight other children.
Among these people, two did not grow up, and one passed away a few years ago. Now, Xiong Ye had five half-siblings.
Among these five, Xiong Ye had a good relationship with the man in front of him and Hu Yue, but his relationship with the other three was not that good. When his father was still alive, they had a certain competitive relationship, and those people did not like him.
When his father passed away, those people were even colder towards him. In fact, back then, he and Hu Yue did not have any interaction at all. Instead, the person in front of him had a good relationship with him because his mother had passed away early and they lived together in the communal housing.
At this moment, Xiong Ye wanted to ask the priest what happened to this person, but he did not dare to ask … He had learned from the priest for a period of time, so he naturally knew how serious the injury of the person in front of him was.
He could only pour some water and slowly feed it to him.
Seeing this, Zhou Ji used his spiritual power to observe the dying Orc.
This Orc's high fever did not subside, and he was really going to die … There was also a white crystal core in his body, and now that crystal core was about to collapse, and there was energy leaking out.
Zhou Ji came to Xiong Ye's side and sat down. He used his spiritual power to control the energy and let it return to the dying Orc's body.
The collapse of the energy did not continue, but this consumed a lot of spiritual power …
Zhou Ji took the time to give him a fruit.
He felt that this person lying on the ground should need food …
Xiong Ye looked at Zhou Ji gratefully. Although he did not know why Zhou Ji did this, it was still a good intention.
While Zhou Ji was using his spiritual power to stop the death, on the other side, the people of the salt exchange team were receiving treatment from the priest as they talked about their experience.
The tribe that the salt exchange team went to exchange salt was called the Qingshan tribe.
The Qingshan tribe did not produce salt. Their salt was exchanged from another tribe, and then exchanged it with others at a higher price.
They were very kind, so many tribes like the big bear tribe would exchange salt with them.
But this time, when the salt exchange team went to the Qingshan tribe, they actually found that the Qingshan tribe had been occupied by another tribe!
If not for the alertness of the salt exchange team, they might have even been killed by the people of the Qingshan tribe, and their things would have been taken away!
However, even if they were more vigilant, they still paid a price. The people of the Qingshan tribe killed a few people, and some things were taken away.
They did not get any salt at all, and they even lost people and things. The captain of the salt exchange team, Xiong Qi, was very helpless.
They were also lucky to find another tribe near the Qingshan tribe, and that tribe agreed to exchange some salt for them.
It was just that they got very little.
"On the way back, we were unlucky. We met a very big dinosaur, and a few people were eaten," Xiong Qi said. As the captain of the salt exchange team, he was also injured, but fortunately, his life was not in danger.
"It's good that you're back. The Beast God will bless you," the priest said.
"Grandpa Priest, how is Niu Er?" Xiong Ye asked at this time. His half-brother's beast form was that of a bull, and because he was his mother's second child, he was called Niu Er.
"Xiong Ye … The Beast God will bless him!" the priest said.
The priest said this because it was very difficult to save Niu Er.
The people in the tribe all knew this, and for a moment, everyone was silent.
Xiong Ye was also in a bad mood. He subconsciously looked around, and saw Shi Li first, then turned to look at Zhou Ji beside him. "Zhou Ji, shall we bring him to our cave?"
"Hmm?" Zhou Ji came back to his senses. His mental strength was almost used up, but fortunately, it was not all for naught. The crystal core of the dying person lying on the ground finally stopped dispersing, and he even opened his eyes.
"He's awake!" Xiong Ye was surprised and overjoyed. He grabbed Zhou Ji's hand. "He's awake!"
"Hmm," Zhou Ji responded.
Shi Li, who was standing not far away, frowned when he saw this.
When Xiong Ye invited Zhou Ji to stay with him, he was very angry, but then he remembered that Zhou Ji was very silly, and that Xiong Ye would not like Zhou Ji, so he relaxed.
