Xingyue didn't know that the first time Jia Chao was talking about was the time he opened his eyes and saw her after traveling to this world.
At that time, Jia Chao had just experienced the pain of the fusion of soul and body, and was in agony from the injuries on the original owner.
If it weren't for her appearance, Jia Chao might not even have the courage to live.
So when Jia Chao said these words at this moment, he had some intention of repaying his kindness.
What Jia Chao didn't know was that Xingyue regarded his words as a special promise.
From this moment on she seemed to be a different person, she spoke more and her voice became higher pitched.
"Do you still remember? Uncle Nushi once pursued Aunt Atu, and his butt was burned by fire while dancing. After that, everyone called him Black Butt for a long time..."
A boy and a girl sat on the big bluestone and looked at the moon and chatted about interesting things from the past.
When he was woken up, Jia Chao felt that his head was going to explode.
He was in a trance as a result of sleeping too late, but he was still woken up by Hongya before dawn.
Jia Chao looked at the twenty or so hunting team members gathered in front of him, and he could barely recognize them all relying on the memory of the original owner.
"Hongya, you should take a good rest because you were injured yesterday!" Jia Chao said, looking at the scar on Hongya's belly.
Hongya shook his head and said, "I'm fine! I'm completely healed!"
After saying this, he reached out and patted his belly vigorously, making Jia Chao grin.
"That's okay! Then has everyone had breakfast?"
Hongya looked at Jia Chao in confusion, "What to eat?"
Jia Chao: "Breakfast!"
Everyone shook their heads, as if they didn't know what breakfast was.
"We have nothing to eat. We can only eat after we have hunted prey!"
Jia Chao: "..."
It seems that the first thing I do as a chief is to re-write the rules!
"Xingyue, let's go fishing!"
Xingyue, who was still nestling on the big bluestone, jumped up when she heard this.
Everyone looked at Xingyue with confused expressions. Jia Chao explained to everyone the matter of Xingyue changing her name, and everyone nodded towards Xingyue.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Xingyue, who had changed her name, seemed to say goodbye to her past self called Disaster, with Xingyue's eyes full of vigor.
Jia Chao selected a dozen people from the hunting team to follow him up the mountain, and the rest were all waiting in the camp.
Not long after, Jia Chao came back with Xingyue and others.
They brought back a lot of pottery, most of which were fired after Oshishi left last time. This can be regarded as delivering some of Oshiki's orders.
They also brought back several large fishes, which were enough to feed dozens of people in the tribe.
Jia Chao and Xingyue spent some time teaching everyone how to stew fish soup in a clay pot. The limited four clay pots took several rounds before everyone could have breakfast.
After breakfast, it was already daybreak. Looking at the sun that had climbed to the top of the distant mountain, Jia Chao was speechless. This efficiency was obviously a bit low.
He thought about it and wanted to bake more pottery pots, but the tribesmen did not dare to go to the back mountain, and Xingyue caught the few big fish alone.
Thinking of this, he looked at Hongya beside him, "Brother Hongya, is the fish delicious?"
Hongya picked his yellow teeth with a fish bone, nodded vigorously and said:
"It's delicious! Someone in the tribe used to eat fish and his throat was pierced by the bones and died. No one dared to eat it anymore. It turns out that this is how it is eaten!"
Jia Chao laughed when he heard this and said: "Then besides the back mountain, are there any fish near our tribe?"
Hongya pointed in a direction down the mountain and said, "There are some in Baimu River! But they're hard to catch!"
Jia Chao nodded, pointed to the bone necklace on a thin string around Hongya's neck and asked:
"Then where does this necklace around your neck come from?"
Hongya raised his hand and held the bone necklace in his palm, "You mean this amulet? The Stone Priest gave it to me! Everyone in the hunting team has it!"
Upon hearing this, Jia Chao immediately asked Xingyue to find Nashi over. After a moment of communication, Nashi finally understood that Jia Chao wanted to tie the rope of the amulet.
"This is made of a kind of tree bark. There are many such trees on the mountain." Nushi explained, "But this can't be made very long like you said. What do you want this kind of rope for?"
Jia Chao rubbed the rope that Nushi gave him. The fibers inside were very thick and complete. It was OK for tying amulets, but it was still a bit difficult to make a fishing net.
He pondered for a moment and suddenly remembered the bamboo in the back mountain.
"Xingyue, let's go! Go back to the back mountain to chop bamboo!"
After saying this, he took Xingyue and ran towards the back mountain, leaving Hongya and Nushi who were looking at each other puzzled.
…
Saber Tiger Tribe, Sabertooth Peak.
There is a relatively smaller cave next to a huge cave, and there are three people standing in the cave.
The handsome chief Dongfeng, the high priest Hulan wearing a weird mask, and Xia Yun who just returned from the Yanshi tribe last night.
"You mean... the rune stones of the Flame Stone Tribe have turned into [Void Spirit Stones]?" High Priest Hulan asked Xia Yundao.
Xia Yun nodded.
"Ayun, this matter is not a trivial matter. Have you really figured it out?" Chief Dongfeng confirmed with Xia Yun again and again.
Xia Yun spread his hands and said:
"I just think his situation is very similar to what the high priest said about the ethereal stone before, but who is sure?"
Chief Dongfeng: "..."
Upon seeing this, the High Priest Hulan waved his hand and said:
"Ayun is right. The Sky Spirit Stone has not appeared on this continent for many years. For most people, the Sky Spirit Stone is just a legend."
Chief Dongfeng: "So are there ethereal stones in the world? What's so special about the beast whisperers awakened by ethereal stones?"
High Priest Hulan: "The emergence of ethereal stones is possible! Many high-level spirit speakers will seal the elemental spirits in their bodies into rune stones before death, thereby preserving the tribe's heritage.
Some spirit speakers have exhausted their soul power when sealing the elemental spirits, which will cause the sealed elemental spirits to lose their vitality and become ethereal.
Once the rune stone turns into an ethereal stone, the souls of the tribesmen need to be sacrificed to nourish it and rejuvenate the elemental spirits, otherwise the ethereal stone will backfire on the awakened ones.
From the looks of it, the first two chiefs of the Flame Stone Tribe may have been back-bitten by the Ethereal Stone! "
Chief Dongfeng clapped his hands when he heard this and said:
"No wonder! How could a person as strong as Chief Ahu suddenly die from a minor injury! But how did their tribe's rune stones turn into ethereal stones?"
High Priest Hulan: "Don't forget, before his death, the Yanshan Ancestor, the beast-speaking god of war of the Yanshi Tribe, consumed his last bit of strength in the Yanshi Mountains in order to compensate the spirit beasts who died for him. Leave a blessing.
Under the influence of that blessing, the probability of spiritual beasts appearing in the Yanshi Mountains is much higher. Perhaps it was for this reason that Yanshan Ancestor exhausted all his strength and made the Void Spirit Stone when sealing the rune stone! "
Xia Yun: "What will happen to the beast whisperer awakened by using the ethereal stone?"
High Priest Hulan shook his head and said:
"It's hard to say! Either become a waste or become a monster!"
Chief Dongfeng: "Ah? What does monster mean?"
High Priest Hulan: "People who awaken using the ethereal stone are very likely to become waste because they cannot inherit the elemental spirit.
But precisely because there is no elemental spirit, they do not need to distribute the soul power they obtain to the elemental spirit, so they grow faster than ordinary spirit speakers! "
Xia Yun scratched his little head, "But how can a person grow up if he doesn't even have an inheritance?"
High Priest Hulan pointed at Chief Dongfeng and said: "Guys like your father, who are born with brute strength or are lucky enough to obtain the best contracted spirit beasts, can hunt beasts without resorting to the power of elemental spirits.
As long as you kill enough prey, you will gain more soul power, and the faster you can level up. When he is promoted to brown level warrior or above, do you think he still needs the inheritance of the elemental spirit? "
Xia Yun and Chief Dongfeng clapped their hands at the same time, "Oh! Shout!"
Xia Yun shook his head again, "It's a pity that Ah Chao is very thin, and the initial contract beast is just a rabbit..."
…
Jia Chao didn't know that someone was discussing him dozens of kilometers away. He and Xingyue cut down a lot of bamboo together.
With the help of the tribesmen, the bamboos were moved to the platform outside the camp, and soon they were made into several strange tools.
Three tools called [shrimp baskets] and four [fishing baskets].
The shrimp trap is large and open, and can be used to catch fish and shrimp. The fishing basket looks like a jar with a narrow mouth, and can be used to hold the fish caught.
These tools were very common in the countryside of Jia Chao's hometown in his previous life. Although Jia Chao didn't know how to make them, he knew the specific shapes.
After his description, the hard-working tribesmen quickly embodied it, which attracted Jia Chao's admiration.
Sometimes racial talent is really important!
After these tools were made, Jia Chao and Hongya led ten tribesmen down the mountain, while Xingyue led five tribesmen up the mountain.
A few strong tribesmen were left to follow Stubborn Stone to take charge of the safety of the tribe, especially keeping an eye on Chief Big Bear.
The reason why Jia Chao went down the mountain was naturally to test whether the fishing tools he made could catch fish in the Baimu River.
The purpose of Xingyue going up the mountain is to leave a layer of insurance. If Jia Chao and others get nothing, the people in the tribe will not starve.
As for the tribesmen in the collection team, they also went to the woods at the foot of the mountain to look for edible fruits and vegetables.
Following Hong Ya down the mountain road, a lush grassland appeared in front of Jia Chao. Only then did he realize that the vastness of this grassland exceeded his imagination.
All I saw was a sea of green grass in front of me. The grass was about one meter and a half deep, and I didn't know what kind of animals were hiding in it.
A winding path extends to the west along the side of the mountain. According to Hongya, the end of the road is the Baimu River.
Generally speaking, hunting teams will not enter the Baimu Grassland directly. Instead, they will follow the path along the mountain to the Baimu River, and then catch prey on the river beach.
"Red Fang, why can't we catch prey in the grassland?"
Hongya smiled naively, stood there and raised her left hand, put her little finger into her mouth, and then raised her hand high with her little finger raised.
After a while, he pointed to the grassland ahead and said to Jia Chao:
"Look over there."
Jia Chao raised his eyes and saw a gust of wind blowing by. The wild grass on the grassland moved like waves, and some large animals hidden in the grass were revealed.
Jia Chao's eyes almost popped out the moment he saw those animals.
"I was shocked! Is that a dinosaur?"
