Views:

Those brought back by Kumano who had been slaves to the giant tiger tribe for a long time eventually joined the giant bear tribe.

Then, all the warriors he had captured from the Giant Tiger Tribe were killed.

The three hundred people Hutian brought to attack the Big Bear Tribe were all the most powerful warriors of the Giant Tiger Tribe, and these warriors had undoubtedly invaded other tribes. When they were in the tribe, they were also qualified to use slaves and also That is, they were basically hated by slaves.

Now all the slaves of the giant tiger tribe have come to the big bear tribe, and they are naturally seeking revenge.

No one stopped this matter. In the end, the very powerful giant tiger tribe that had been in the wild forest for decades, disappeared like this, completely disappeared.

After these slaves joined the big bear tribe, they started to get busy.

Pottery can improve the lives of people in the tribe, but it doesn't really matter. The work of making pottery is slowed down first, and everyone is mainly busy with storing food and collecting firewood.

In the place where the Big Bear Tribe is located, there are more than 100 days in winter, and there are about 70 to 80 days. It is very, very cold, and there is not much food to be found. During that time, the tribe will not organize collective hunting.

That being the case, in order to spend the winter better, you need to prepare a lot of food. Not only that, but everyone will work hard to eat and gain weight before winter comes.

Kumano couldn't control himself.

He has been eating a lot recently, not to mention that the animal form has become fatter, even the human form has gotten a little fatter and has become more beautiful.

Kumano squatted by the pond in front of his house and watched the reflection in the water, feeling that he had become handsome.

And today is the day when the handsome he took over as the patriarch.

There is no need for group hunting in the tribe today. In addition, work such as collecting firewood has been suspended, and everyone has gathered in the col for the ceremony of Kumano's succession as the patriarch.

The Big Bear tribe had been struggling with food and clothing before, and such rituals were not taken seriously at all, let’s just say that at the time of Xionghe… After Kumano’s father died, he rushed ducks onto the shelves and became the patriarch directly.

But this time is different.

After discussing with Xiong He, the priest decided that this ceremony should be carried out well, so that those who have just joined the big bear tribe know that the big bear tribe has a background.

Those who have newly joined the Big Bear Tribe have a good impression of the Big Bear Tribe, but after all, they have not been here for a long time, and they often stay with the people from their original tribe, so they do not have a strong sense of belonging to the Big Bear Tribe.

The priest wanted to use this ceremony to make these people realize that the Big Bear Tribe is strong and that they are now members of the Big Bear Tribe.

So, they specially prepared a different ceremony, and in order not to make mistakes, they also asked Kumano to rehearse.

"Zhou Ji, you must attend the next ceremony." After seeing his appearance in the water, Kumano said to Zhou Ji while washing his face with water in his hands.

"Okay." Zhou Ji responded, and was helpless: "Why don't you use hot water?"

Zhou Ji is very, very satisfied with their new house. Since having this house, it has been convenient for him to cook and boil water.

And the first thing he does every morning is to boil water.

But Kumano does not always use hot water.

"I don't need it, you can just use it." Kumano said, boiling water is also quite troublesome. Zhou Ji not only needs to wash his face with hot water, but also drink hot water and take a bath with hot water... The hot water is still reserved for Zhou Ji. Bar.

Thinking of this, Kumano immediately decided to wait for the ceremony to end, and then go outside to get some wood and come back - he wanted to prepare more firewood to put at home.

Otherwise, how will Zhou Ji spend this winter

Kumano quickly washed his face, then combed his hair with a comb, and found the clothes Zhou Ji made for him and put them on.

"And shoes." Zhou Ji brought a pair of shoes to Kumano. These shoes were made by him according to Kumano's feet these days. The soles are layered animal skins and the uppers are plant fibers.

"This is for me?" Kumano hesitated a little when he saw the shoes. Shouldn't it be uncomfortable to wear something like this on your feet

He saw Zhou Ji making shoes a few days ago, but he didn't expect it to be for him.

"Try it on." Zhou Ji said.

Kumano was reluctant to reject Zhou Ji and immediately put it on.

Even if the shoes are uncomfortable, he has already made up his mind to wear them for a day. After all, these shoes are very troublesome to make. Zhou Ji doesn't go out these days, so he should just stay at home to make shoes.

Kumano didn't know that Zhou Ji didn't spend much time making these shoes. He stayed at home purely for sleep. He was very moved at the moment.

And when he put on his shoes... He looked at his feet in amazement.

He thought that being wrapped in something would make his feet uncomfortable, but he didn't expect the opposite.

Wearing such a pair of shoes, his feet are very comfortable.

Kumano moved his toes, took a few steps, and felt that his feet were warmed up.

"I also made a belt for you." Zhou Ji took out a belt made of black animal skin and ceramic buttons, tied it around Kumano's waist, and then took out a necklace and hung it around Kumano's neck.

This necklace is strung together with some colored stones. These stones are colorful and beautiful, and Zhou Ji did not polish them, so he just put them together to make a long necklace, which is quite rough. Beautiful, very different from Kumano's temperament.

Zhou Ji felt that Kumano should like this necklace, and Kumano really liked it.

He has liked to collect all kinds of beautiful stones since he was a child. He once collected a bunch of them. Later, he wanted to become a partner with Shi Li. He felt that it would take up space before giving them away, but he was actually quite reluctant to give them up. Now Zhou Ji has done this for him. A necklace…

Xiong Ye hugged Zhou Ji and kissed: "Zhou Ji, you are so kind."

Zhou Ji: "..." The stones he wore on the necklace he gave to Kumano were small at the top, but huge at the bottom, and the biggest one was about the size of an egg, and it was still unpolished.

When Kumano hugged him, the stone hurt him a little.

"Let's go." Zhou Ji said, and walked out with Kumano.

Not too far out, there is a cold wind oncoming.

Kumano immediately walked in front of Zhou Ji and helped Zhou Ji to block the wind.

But his stature is actually no taller than Zhou Ji, and he can't stop it at all... Zhou Ji chuckled and blocked some wind with his mental strength and energy.

The two walked forward together, and it didn't take long before they came to the mountain pass where the big bear tribe lived.

At this moment, there are many people in the col, and the smell of barley tea is still permeating here - a large fire is lit in the middle of the tribe, and there is a stone pot on it, and the barley is boiled in the stone pot. Tea.

Others stood by the stone pot, scooping barley tea for everyone who came.

When he scoops barley tea, he will scoop it together with barley. On such a cold day, drinking a bowl of hot barley tea and chewing up the barley at the bottom of the bowl is a great happiness thing.

"Zhou Ji, I made a very delicious barley tea!" Seeing Zhou Ji and Kumano coming together, the priest came over with a pottery cup: "Do you want to eat it?"

Zhou Ji has already smelled the smell, and at this time said without hesitation: "I don't want to."

The priest was very disappointed, and was still promoting: "It's really delicious! I put a little oil and a little salt, and the barley tea that I boiled is very fragrant."

Zhou Ji: "..." This should no longer be barley tea, but barley soup.

When Zhou Ji was talking to the priest, those who had just joined the big bear tribe were all looking at Zhou Ji.

It has been ten days since Xiongye brought people back to the tribe. In these ten days, these people have been familiar with the priest and Xionghe, as well as some other people in the big bear tribe, but Zhou Ji, the messenger of the beast god, they have not even seen.

Now that they have finally met, they are naturally curious.

"This man is so handsome."

"He's dressed nicely, too."

"Is he Zhou Ji?"

Everyone talked a lot, and some people said: "I heard that Zhou Ji is the messenger of the beast god, so he can do anything... Do you think he will have children?"

Mental power is so useful that I heard Zhou Ji clearly: "..."

When the barley tea is finished, all the people in the tribe will be there.

At this time, the priest walked to the open space in the middle of the mountain and said, "Today is the day when Kumano succeeded the chief of the Big Bear tribe. I will pray here and ask the beast god to bless my tribe..."

The priest said a long list of words, and after he had finished, he began to dance again.

Zhou Ji felt that the dance of the priest was as irritating as always.

If Kumano came to dance, he would definitely be able to dance very well... Wait, Kumano should stop dancing, and if he wants to dance, he has to be alone in his room and show him the dance.

After dancing, the priest began to speak again, and a bowl of meat, a fish, a bowl of boiled barley and a bowl of earthen eggs were served: "Great beast god, I present you with delicious food, may you bless you Our tribe…”

The priest made a lot of things out, and it was quite tossing.

All this is very simple for Zhou Ji, who has participated in many ceremonies in modern times, but the ordinary orcs watching around feel very grand.

Those who have newly joined the Big Bear Tribe are even more in awe when they see this scene - the Big Bear Tribe is really different!

They didn't even know that the successor of the patriarch had to do such a thing, to use food to worship the beast god... The people of the Big Bear tribe know a lot!

These people looked at the people of the native big bear tribe with envy, and felt that they must have had a very good life since they were young, but they didn't know the people of the native big bear tribe, and they were actually a little confused at the moment.

Before Xiong He took over as the patriarch, it didn't seem to be so troublesome! Was it because they were so poor at the time that the priest omitted the steps

After singing and dancing, the priest made the tribesmen dance with him, and even made Kumano and Xionghe dance with him.

Everyone jumped up, and only Zhou Ji and a few people who couldn't jump didn't jump. The latter refers to children who can't walk yet.

Zhou Ji felt that he was a little out of tune with the surrounding environment, but he really couldn't dance.

Zhou Ji had already heard from Kumano that this succession ceremony would be a little more complicated, but I didn't expect it to be done like this... But it was really lively.

Although he couldn't understand it, it was obvious that everyone else was happy, and Kumano was especially happy.

In the end, Kumano also took a pottery stick from Xiong He's hand.

This stick should be one of the pottery that has just been fired recently, but obviously, now he has become a symbol of power... Zhou Ji saw Kumano holding the stick over his head and said, "Big Bear Tribe! Big Bear Tribe!"

Everyone shouted: "Big Bear Tribe! Big Bear Tribe!"

The atmosphere was very lively for a while, and after that, everyone gathered to eat.

Everyone is very happy, and only Xiong He is not very happy.

And he was not happy, not because he handed over the position of the patriarch, but because... While he was happily preparing to eat, the priest said to him: "Xiong River, what I said at the ceremony today, You have to memorize the dance and learn it. In the future, the succession ceremony of the patriarch of the Big Bear Tribe will be done like this! The priest succession ceremony can also be done like this!"

Xiong He: "..." If I had known him, I would have asked the priest to say a few words less! So what did the priest say before

He really doesn't want to carry it at all!

Wait, he should not think about the things that he can't recite, let's find a way to find a suitable student for the priest!

He's too old to be able to carry it!

When Xionghe was depressed, Kumano was in high spirits.

He smiled and talked to everyone in the tribe, and finally came to Zhou Ji's side and took Zhou Ji's hand: "Zhou Ji, let's go dance."

Zhou Ji didn't want to dance at all, but probably because Kumano's eyes were too hot, he actually stood up and went to dance with it...

The ceremony is over, but the dance is not over yet, but at this moment, everyone is dancing around the fire at will.

Although everyone dances this dance casually, does it seem like it can make people very happy

Zhou Ji's idea was right. After such a lively scene, the people of the Big Bear tribe became happy.

The smiles on the faces of those who have been slaves in the dark for a long time are also getting bigger and bigger.

Everyone was even more motivated. Under the leadership of Kumano, they stored a lot of firewood and food before the cold winter came.

There was an empty room where Zhou Ji and Kumano lived. Zhou Ji didn't pay attention, it was stuffed with all kinds of things by Kumano, and half the room was filled with firewood.

That's not all the firewood... Kumano put all the thick and big wood outside the house.

Everyone is busy, and winter is coming quietly.

One morning, Zhou Ji suddenly found that it was snowing outside.

All kinds of preparations are almost done, and the time has come... The priest immediately said that winter has begun, and everyone will no longer need to hunt in groups. At the same time, Kumano and Xionghe took out the stored food and distributed it to everyone in the tribe. .

Kumano got a lot of meat. When he brought the meat home, he saw Zhou Ji standing under the eaves, looking at the snowflakes.

"Zhou Ji, it's cold outside, why don't you stay inside?" Kumano asked.

"I'm watching the snow." Zhou Ji said, how many years has he not seen such a snow scene

No, he had never seen such a snow scene.

The scenery here is so beautiful, and the people here are so beautiful.

Zhou Ji and Xiong Ye took the meat to the empty room and the kitchen to hang it. After finishing all this, Zhou Ji asked, "Xiong Ye, will you hibernate?"

Bears are hibernating animals. When there is a lack of food in winter, they will dig their own burrows, or find a cave to sleep in, waiting for the arrival of spring.

"I won't hibernate because of the abundance of food this year!" Kumano said without hesitation.

Bears will hibernate, but their hibernation is not really hibernation, but more like sleeping. At least, as long as there is danger, they will wake up immediately.

If there is food, they will also get up for a meal.

Kumano hibernated last year because there was not enough food, but this year... He wants to stay at home with Zhou Ji every day, eat, drink, and kiss!
