The priest: "…"
The priest was a little unwilling. "Why?"
Of course, he didn't want to dance and sing.
Moreover … it was not easy to be a priest in such a small tribe.
The priest did not need to hunt or gather. The best part of the food that the hunting team hunted would be given to the priest. It looked good, but in fact, the priest was very busy.
When people in the tribe encountered some problems that they couldn't solve by themselves, they would turn to the priest for help. The priest was also responsible for many affairs in the tribe, including farming. The people in the big bear tribe had not learned how to farm systematically; however, they had already known some simple planting methods, such as sowing some seeds around the tribe, planting some edible grasses around the tribe and telling the people in the tribe not to pick all of them off, etc.
In short, when someone was sick, they would look for the priest. When a child awakened, they would look for the priest. When someone died, they would look for the priest. Even when someone was about to give birth, they would look for the priest.
The priest was really busy, so much so that he could not leave the tribe.
Zhou Ji did not want to give himself so many things to do.
Was it not enough that he could not even have a good night's sleep at the end of the world? Why did he have to involve himself in all this?
"I'm lazy," Zhou Ji said.
The priest: "…" He had thought of many possibilities, but this was the only one he had not thought of!
Zhou Ji was actually unwilling to be a priest because he was lazy!
The priest's mouth twitched, and he was a little distressed. "You received the blessing of the Beast Deity and finally became smart. You are actually unwilling to do anything because of your laziness. How are you going to live in the future?"
"Xiong Ye will raise me." Zhou Ji smiled.
The priest really wanted to chase Zhou Ji out.
Zhou Ji said seriously, "Grandpa Priest, I just want to be with Xiong Ye and live quietly. I don't want to care about too many things."
The priest looked at Zhou Ji, and Zhou Ji said again, "I have indeed received the gift of the Beast Deity. After my mother died, I suddenly understood many things. I am willing to contribute to the tribe, but I do not want to be a priest."
"What did you understand?" The priest was very excited.
Zhou Ji said, "For example, the effect of the Senna Leaf, or the effect of the Spirit Soothing Grass. When I saw these plants, I inexplicably knew their effects."
The priest looked at Zhou Ji inquiringly. Zhou Ji's sudden improvement and intelligence was a little abnormal.
The people in the tribe didn't have much contact with the former Zhou Ji, nor were they familiar with the current Zhou Ji. They didn't know much about Zhou Ji, so they accepted it as a matter of course. However, the priests who had treated the former Zhou Ji knew that there were many strange things about Zhou Ji.
But he also saw that Zhou Ji had no ill intentions towards the people in the tribe and treated Xiong Ye very well.
Yesterday, under the witness of the Beast Deity and the Flame Flower, Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye had become partners, and his condition had suddenly improved during the Beast Deity Ceremony.
He was willing to believe in Zhou Ji, so he wanted Zhou Ji to be the priest, but Zhou Ji was unwilling …
The priest frowned. After a while, he relaxed and said, "Up to you …" He did not believe that he could not find someone who could take over his position!
"Thank you," Zhou Ji said.
The priest continued, "Since you've received a gift from the Beast Deity, tell me about it quickly!"
Just like that, Zhou Ji met the priest's inquisitive eyes.
He had a feeling that he had found trouble for himself.
Xiong Ye went to the river again. After all, fish were easy to catch, and Zhou Ji quite liked to eat fish.
Not only that, he would sometimes encounter other prey by the river.
Walking along the river to a place further away from the tribe, Xiong Ye caught seven or eight fish and a snake.
He also saw frogs, but they were not big, so he did not catch them.
Xiong Ye planned to go back. Such a harvest was not enough for him to eat, but Zhou Ji ate less, but it was enough. Most importantly, he was in a hurry to go back to accompany Zhou Ji.
Today was the first day after they became partners! They still had to be intimate at night!
Xiong Ye killed and washed all the prey and returned to the tribe happily. Then, he found that Zhou Ji was still with the priest. Not only that, when he wanted to take Zhou Ji away, the priest did not let him go.
Xiong Ye said, "Grandpa Priest! Zhou Ji is hungry! "
"Yes, I'm hungry," Zhou Ji said.
The priest looked at Xiong Ye with a face full of condemnation. Xiong Ye was so good in the past, and was especially respectful to him, but now he was wholeheartedly loyal to Zhou Ji!
The priest could only say, "Zhou Ji, come back after you eat."
"It will be dark after I eat," Xiong Ye said.
"Then come back tomorrow," the priest could only say.
Zhou Ji thought about it and agreed in the end.
In the apocalypse, because he had Plant Arcana, he had read a lot of books on plants and was very familiar with the various plants on Earth. However, there were many plants in this place that could not be found on Earth.
For example, the Flame Flower, or the fruit that he accidentally ate that he did not know what it was.
Today, he explained some of the uses of plants to the priest, but at the same time, the priest also explained some of the uses of plants to him.
This world was really amazing, and Zhou Ji was curious about it.
He clearly had no curiosity before.
Today, the fish that Xiong Ye caught was bigger, and it was not the size of a palm like before. Zhou Ji cut it into a few pieces and put it into the pot to fry. Then, he added water to boil it. After adding water, he also added the pickled vegetables that he had pickled a few days ago.
He thought about making pickled vegetables, but because there was not enough salt, he could not make more. However, he still made some. The pickled vegetables had only been pickled for a few days, but they already had the taste of pickled vegetables. After boiling them in the fish soup for a while, the fish soup became especially delicious.
Of course, the reason why he felt this way was probably because he had not eaten well for a long time …
Zhou Ji divided the pot of fish soup into two, half for himself and the other half for Xiong Ye.
He was used to picking out all the fish bones when eating fish, but Xiong Ye was the opposite. Other than the larger fish bones, he directly chewed and swallowed the smaller fish bones.
After dividing the fish, Zhou Ji ate slowly.
Xiong Ye was afraid that Zhou Ji would not be full, so after Zhou Ji divided the fish to him, he was not in a hurry to eat. Instead, he looked at Zhou Ji. Now that he saw Zhou Ji picking out such small fish bones, he felt a burst of heartache.
Zhou Ji was too weak!
Xiong Ye picked out all the boneless meat from the fish belly in his bowl and gave it to Zhou Ji. He also gave the boneless snake meat to Zhou Ji. "Eat more."
Zhou Ji looked up at Xiong Ye and smiled. He ate all the meat that Xiong Ye gave him.
Xiong Ye definitely did not have enough food to eat. After eating the delicious fish soup, he ate a piece of barbecued meat.
All along, Xiong Ye felt that meat was the most delicious thing in the world. No matter how much he ate, he would not get tired of it. But now that he ate meat after eating the fish soup, he actually felt that the taste of meat was not as good …
Xiong Ye felt that he should not be doing this. Making fish soup like this every day was really a waste of effort and firewood.
But when he saw Zhou Ji, he felt that it was right to let Zhou Ji live a better life.
Zhou Ji was his partner. He should take good care of him!
Zhou Ji did not know what kind of image he had in Xiong Ye's eyes. After eating, he said to Xiong Ye, "Let's sleep."
The cave that Xiong Ye had stayed in previously was dirty because he had slept in it a few days ago when he was sick. However, the cave that he slept in was very clean.
Originally, they were supposed to sleep in this cave on their wedding night. But at that time, Xiong Ye had transformed into his beast form and slept outside. He did not sleep the whole night …
Zhou Ji opened the animal skin curtain that he had made and lay down on the animal skin cushion inside. Then, he waved at Xiong Ye. "Come here quickly."
Xiong Ye immediately went over and hugged Zhou Ji. "Zhou Ji, I want it." As he said that, he took Zhou Ji's hand and placed it under his stomach.
Zhou Ji: "…" He had just come in the morning and he wants it again at night? His body is so good! And as expected of a primitive man, he was especially direct!
Xiong Ye's energy was so good! Zhou Ji helped him again and was hugged and kissed many times. After it was over, Xiong Ye asked, "Do you want help?"
Zhou Ji wanted to say no, but in the end, he said "yes" unexpectedly.
And Xiong Ye was not an indecisive person. He immediately helped him.
…
Xiong Ye's technique was really bad. He did not have any strength in his hands!
Zhou Ji felt that he should give him more opportunities to learn.
It was quite good for the two of them to be together like this.
After Xiong Ye fell asleep, Zhou Ji gave him some energy as usual. The next day, he woke up earlier than usual to make breakfast.
He realized that after eating that fruit, he did not need to sleep … That fruit was really quite powerful.
When Xiong Ye went hunting, he would go to the priest.
The priest could be said to be doing his best to teach Zhou Ji. He was even more dedicated to digging out more knowledge from Zhou Ji.
Every day, he brought Zhou Ji to the surroundings of the tribe to identify all kinds of herbs and edible plants. He did not want to waste even a moment.
Zhou Ji was pestered by the priest every day. He did not even have time to go out alone.
After eating that fruit, he wanted to go back and see the pool. But the priest pestered him too tightly. He did not have time to go over.
No, it was not that he did not have time at all. At night, after Xiong Ye fell asleep, he could go out.
But he was too lazy to go out at night.
Finally, after a few days, Zhou Ji rejected the priest. "I want to sleep today."
"The weather is so good. Isn't sleeping a waste of time?" The priest said, "You should follow me and learn more."
Zhou Ji: "I have learned all your knowledge."
The priest: "…" But I have not learned all your knowledge!
Sigh! Why did the Beast Deity give such a precious gift to a person who only thought about eating and sleeping all day?
"Let me rest well. Maybe I can remember some more knowledge," Zhou Ji said.
"Sleep slowly and think slowly," the priest said and went back to his cave to sleep.
These days, he had been bringing Zhou Ji everywhere. He was actually quite tired. His old arms and legs could not take it anymore … He should go back to sleep. He would look for Zhou Ji when he felt better the next day.
After the shaman left, Zhou Ji left the tribe and immediately ran towards the forest where many Knobby Chested Centipedes lived.
The forest was still the same, but it was a little different — he was now stronger and could easily find the centipedes hidden underground. At the same time, he reached the place that should have taken a few hours in less than an hour.
He walked so slowly because he was learning how to use his energy along the way.
The pool that Zhou Ji came to last time looked the same. It was just that he had trampled on a lot of plants during the battle and they had not grown back yet.
At the same time, the originally rich energy here had completely disappeared. The energy was even less than in other places …
As for the centipedes … That giant centipede was still living in the crevice. Zhou Ji did not see any other centipedes.
Zhou Ji came over this time to study why that plant grew here. In the end, before he could study it, he saw the giant centipede crawling out of the crack in the stone and running toward him aggressively.
Without hesitation, Zhou Ji transformed into his beast form, intending to kick the centipede away.
