"Zhou Ji, why are you here?" Kumano was a little surprised.
Zhou Ji said: "After I went to the Hieroglyphic Tribe with my father, I was always looked down upon because of my poor strength. Later, my father sent me to the Beast Temple, and then I stayed in the Beast Temple and helped to farm the land." He doesn't like to communicate with people, and Xiangtian is not happy for him to communicate with people. After arriving in the Hieroglyphic tribe, he has no sense of existence, and later he left quietly.
Later, when Xiangtian came to him, he was mad and killed, and the hieroglyphic tribe fell apart... Zhou Ji believed that thirty years later, no one in the hieroglyphic tribe remembered him.
Even if someone remembers him, no one can debunk what he made up.
Kumano said: "You seem to be doing well."
Zhou Ji smiled embarrassedly: "Because I'm lazy, I'm often lazy."
When Kumano first saw Zhou Ji, he had some precautions, but now that he observed it, the precautions were put down. After all, Zhou Ji didn't need to lie to him.
When Kumano observed Zhou Ji, Zhou Ji was also observing Kumano.
He was very jealous when he saw the other self and the other Kumano being sweet in the dream, but this jealousy was mainly because he found out that the other self had a partner and was doing well.
To be honest, he actually has no feelings for Kumano in his dream.
After all, the prey that Kumano hunted was not for him to eat.
But even so, he still had a somewhat different feeling for the person "Kumano".
He didn't care about the people around him, but Kumano was different. After he quietly observed it yesterday, he felt sympathy and anger at the same time.
That Shi Li is not a good thing at all, why does Kumano still miss him
He felt that, in another world, for the sake of falling in love with Kumano, he wanted to help Kumano get rid of Shi Li.
As for the future... He didn't even think about it.
Although I thought a lot in my heart, there was still a gentle smile on Zhou Ji's face.
Although he has become accustomed to being expressionless over the years, it is not difficult to make an expression for himself when necessary.
Zhou Ji said again: "Xiong Ye, I heard that you and Shi Li have both become beast kings? Congratulations."
"You know?" Kumano asked.
"Understood." Zhou Ji smiled and said, "Everywhere in the Beast God Temple, this is being talked about... Aren't you in the Wild Forest? How did you come to the Orc Continent?"
"Something happened in the tribe." Kumano said with a wry smile.
Zhou Ji asked, "Can you tell me?"
Kumano said: "There is nothing to say, that is, we were attacked by another tribe, and only 30 people escaped in the end."
Zhou Ji said: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."
Kumano smiled: "It's okay, it's been a long time."
Seeing Zhou Ji, Kumano recalled some past events, but he had hardly got along with Zhou Ji before, and he didn't know what to say at this time, and the two sides soon fell silent.
Zhou Ji said: "Xiong Ye, can I go back to the Big Bear Tribe?"
"You want to go back to the Big Bear Tribe?" Kumano was a little surprised: "Didn't you have a good time in the Beast Temple?" The Beast Temple can let Zhou Ji be lazy and raise his own land so well, why did Zhou Ji leave
"I have always missed the big bear tribe." Zhou Ji said: "Don't worry, I'm not lazy... I really want to be lazy, I can't live so well in the Beast Temple without any support. I can live well, yes Because I'm good at farming."
"You're good at farming?" Kumano was a little surprised.
Zhou Ji said: "Yes, I am good at farming. When I return to the Big Bear Tribe, I can guide the people of the gathering team to plant the land."
When Xiong Ye heard Zhou Ji say this, he was really moved: "Can you leave the Beast Temple?"
"Of course," Zhou Ji smiled, "There are still many people like me who can farm the land in the Beast God Temple, and there is no shortage of me... You and Shi Li become the Beast King, and the Beast God Temple will definitely give you some when the time comes. Man, I can take the initiative to sign up."
Zhou Ji has already considered everything... Kumano said: "Okay."
"Kumano, thank you, you are such a good person!" Zhou Ji said.
Kumano didn't think he was a good person, but asked Zhou Ji some knowledge about farming.
Kumano is forty-eight years old this year. He has experienced too many things over the years. He has to take care of everything. He also knows something about farming. Now he will ask Zhou Ji.
Zhou Ji responded fluently.
Although he did not like the Beast Temple, he also hoped that the life of the orcs would be better, so he found a lot of plants to bring back, let the people of the Beast Temple, and then let the people of the Beast Temple plant the seeds of these plants and planting methods. Teach the people of each tribe.
During the period, he will pay more attention to it. That being the case, it is naturally impossible not to know the planting methods of those plants.
Hearing Zhou Ji's words so eloquently, Kumano also completely believed Zhou Ji's words.
However, Zhou Ji is a person from the Temple of the Beast, so it is impossible for him to take people away directly... Kumano and Zhou Ji chatted and left.
Seeing him leave, Zhou Ji quietly followed.
Kumano returned to the place where the beast king lived in the temple of the beast, and found that Shi Li was not there.
He had an unexpected feeling.
It was getting dark.
The people of the Beast Temple brought a lamp to Kumano.
The lamp looks like a goblet. Of course, it is much larger and made of stone. In the top stone bowl, there is animal fat mixed with sawdust.
The boiled animal fat and wood chips are mixed together to form a ball, which will light up after lighting.
The lights flickered, and Kumano wanted to go to bed earlier, but he couldn't sleep, so he didn't sleep at all.
In the middle of the night, Shi Li came back.
Seeing that Xiongye hadn't slept yet, Shi Li was a little surprised and a little embarrassed: "Xiono, you haven't slept yet?"
"Yeah." Kumano nodded and looked at Shi Li.
Shi Li felt as though he was seen through by Kumano's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel guilty.
After hearing the high priest's words this afternoon, he wanted to part with Kumano.
Being with Kumano and being suppressed by Kumano everywhere, he felt very unhappy.
Moreover, he and Kumano's concept is also very different.
For example, he always felt that since he was already the Beastmaster, he didn't need to hunt, but what about Kumano? He is a beastmaster, and he even went hunting in person!
Also... He and Kumano don't have children, and it's not really good...
Shi Li was full of words and wanted to tell Kumano, but when he met Kumano's eyes, he couldn't say it.
He... Maybe he shouldn't have said it directly, it would hurt Kumano.
Otherwise, wait two years before dissolving the partnership
"Kumano, it's very late, let's sleep." Shi Li said.
Kumano responded and fell asleep.
Shi Li didn't share a bed with Kumano.
When he was young, he liked Kumano's body, but now he doesn't.
There are many scars and calluses on Kumano's body. Compared with Kumano, those young men with more outstanding appearance are obviously more in line with his aesthetics.
And women... don't know what women taste like.
Although the two were in the same room, once again they did nothing.
Early the next morning, Shi Li left again.
Knowing this, Kumano didn't feel uncomfortable for some reason.
After all, there were clues to tell him that Shi Li didn't like him anymore.
It's just that he always thought that even if there was no "love" between them, they were still relatives, family members, and would be together forever, but now it seems that is not the case.
Early in the morning, the Beast Temple brought food.
The Beast Temple is very particular. It will give them three meals a day to eat, and the taste is not bad... When he and Shi Li first came, they thought it was very delicious. Even if Shi Li went out to play every day, he would come back to eat. But recently, Shi Li hasn't come back to eat very much.
Yes, he is the king of beasts, and there is no shortage of food.
Kumano ate slowly. As the king of beasts, he could digest no matter how much he ate. For him, eating two people's food was nothing at all.
It's just today that things have changed a bit...
When Kumano was halfway through eating, Zhou Ji came.
Zhou Ji came over with a basket with several bamboo tubes in it: "Kumano, I have some delicious food here, I'll give you a taste."
"What is it?" Kumano was a little curious - he had already smelled the sweet smell from the basket held by Zhou Ji.
"It's bamboo rice and candied fruit." Zhou Ji said.
Zhou Ji found rice more than ten years ago, but because the environment on the side of the Beast Temple is not suitable for growing rice, no one is planting it here.
But he himself does not lack rice to eat.
And today at noon... He made bamboo rice.
The marinated meat, mushrooms, soaked rice are mixed together, and then a kind of chopped, young leaves of a tree similar to toona sinensis are added, and the rice is stuffed into a bamboo tube and grilled on the fire. It is very fragrant.
Of course, he brought more than rice.
He also brought a bamboo tube of candied fruit, which he used to make as a snack, and now brings it to Kumano.
Zhou Ji took these out and explained: "These two are the unique foods of the Beast Temple, you can try Kumano."
"Okay, thank you." Kumano laughed.
"No thanks." Zhou Ji said, his eyes fell on the food that Shi Li had not eaten yet.
Seeing Zhou Ji like this, Xiong Ye thought that Zhou Ji was hungry. Thinking of the food that Zhou Ji brought for himself, maybe it was his food for a day... Kumano said: "Shi Li is not here, let's eat his food for you."
Zhou Ji looked at the sincere and frightened: "How can this be done? This is for the beast king..."
"It doesn't matter, you don't eat and waste." Kumano said.
"Then I'll eat." Zhou Ji didn't refuse, sitting opposite Kumano and eating, chatting with Kumano while eating.
He hasn't said so much for a long, long time. After all, he usually has no interest in talking to others, but if the object is Kumano, he doesn't reject talking more.
Kumano had already finished his portion of food. As Zhou Ji said, he opened a bamboo tube filled with rice, and was caught by the tempting aroma.
It's a food similar to barley, but I don't know why... so delicious!
Kumano took a sip and suddenly found that the food that the Beast Temple gave him, which he thought was delicious, was actually very ordinary: "This... It's delicious."
"If you like it, I'll bring you some more tomorrow." Zhou Ji said, eating meat.
The meat that the Beast Temple gave to the Beast King was the meat of the dinosaurs that had been gelded.
There are several dinosaurs that look like pigs. If they don't gelatin, they will have a strange smell on them, but if they are gelded, the smell will be gone.
More than ten years ago, he began to let the people in the beast temple raise dinosaurs, and eight years ago he proposed gelding dinosaurs. Now the beast temple for the high-level food is all farmed, gelatinized dinosaur meat, and this meat tastes even better. Well, even he doesn't reject eating.
Seeing that Zhou Ji was happy to eat, Xiong Ye said, "Then I'll trouble you. You should come over at this time tomorrow. Shi Li's food can be served to you at that time." Although the food Zhou Ji gave him was delicious, But there is no meat, all plants, in fact, not enough to eat.
He ate a little of Zhou Ji's delicious food, and let Zhou Ji eat a full meal of meat as an exchange.
"Okay." Zhou Ji replied with a smile, and when Kumano ate the bamboo rice, he introduced the candied fruit to Kumano.
Kumano took a sip and was a little surprised.
This candied fruit is very sweet and really delicious!
Kumano thought about it, and finally found a low-level crystal core and gave it to Zhou Ji: "You can take this thing, you can use it to exchange things with people."
"Thank you." Zhou Ji said.
Other Beastmasters are accustomed to being sought after, and they will never think about giving back after receiving such a little thing. Kumano is really different.
Zhou Ji left, he didn't come at noon, but at night, he came again, this time, he brought a bowl of fried bird eggs to Kumano: "I found a bird nest this afternoon, and put the eggs inside. It's fried in oil, and I'll give you a taste!"
Kumano has never eaten scrambled eggs before.
The food prepared for the Beast King at the Beast God Temple is very delicate, but it will not be particularly delicious, or rare, lest the Beast King become addicted to eating it, and he wants to eat it by name.
Because eggs are not easy to get, they will not be eaten by the Beastmaster.
It was the first time for Kumano to eat scrambled eggs, and he was amazed by the taste, and his attitude towards Zhou Ji was even better.
The two chatted happily again.
When Zhou Ji left, Xiong Ye, who had planned to wait for Shi Li to come back, didn't wait any longer and went to sleep.
Like this, three days passed quickly.
Shi Li left early every morning, and only came back when Xiong Ye fell asleep. He left early and returned late. He didn’t know what he was doing, but Xiong Ye was used to Zhou Ji bringing some fresh food every morning and evening, and came to him for dinner and chat.
Zhou Ji has been living in the Beast Temple and knows a lot of things. Through chatting with Zhou Ji, Kumano also knows a lot of things.
That night, the two were having dinner when Shi Li came back.
Shi Li came in hesitantly, and when he saw Zhou Ji, who was sitting and eating with Xiong Ye, his face immediately became ugly, and he felt as if his territory was being harassed: "Xiong Ye, who is this person?"
"This is Zhou Ji." Kumano said: "It used to be in our tribe."
"Zhou Ji?" Shi Li quickly remembered. Having a beastmaster father, he turned out to be a waste... He was very impressed with Zhou Ji: "He's not dead yet?"
I thought that a weak person like Zhou Ji should die after his father died.
Shi Li's words made Kumano frown slightly, and Zhou Ji said, "Yes, I'm not dead."
"Why is he here? Kumano, you actually gave him my meal!" Shi Li was dissatisfied.
"If I can't finish it, I'll waste it." Kumano said without hesitation, of course, the real reason is not this... Zhou Ji will bring him something delicious every time, and today I gave him a bowl of fried loach, which he ate. For those, always give Zhou Ji something in return.
"Then you can let him take it and eat it!" Shi Li said, he felt that the appearance of Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji eating together was a bit annoying.
Kumano said: "What the hell are you doing?"
When Shi Li heard what Xiong Ye said, he felt that he was being underestimated: "You said I was making trouble? Where did I make trouble!"
"I'm sorry, Xiong Ye, Shi Li, I've caused you trouble... I'm leaving." Zhou Ji said, he planned to go outside and hide to watch the play.
Thinking about it this way, let's think about what I said... Zhou Ji suddenly felt like he was a bit of a white lotus.
Throwing this unreliable idea out of his mind, Zhou Ji heard Kumano: "Go back first."
Shi Li snorted coldly and said, "You want to call me the Lion Beast King! You are a cripple, you don't respect the Beast King, I can kill you!"
Zhou Ji: "..." He kept calling others by their first names, and he really forgot about this.
Kumano said, "Shi Li, stop making trouble."
Shi Li has murderous intentions towards Zhou Ji, but with Xiong Ye around, he can't do anything.
Not only that, but Kumano's words also distracted him: "What did you say to me?"
"I told you to stop making trouble." Shi Li said.
"Xiong Ye, did you like that Zhou Ji? Otherwise, why did you help him?" Shi Li said, "In the past few days, the house smells of him every day. I didn't think much about it before, but now..."
Kumano looked at Shi Li, a little disappointed.
Shi Li was even more dissatisfied with Xiongye's eyes: "Xunye, you are my partner, but you are so close to people, are you worthy of me?"
"So, what do you want?" Kumano asked.
Shi Li was stunned.
Kumano said again: "You quarreled with me about such a trivial matter, just to dissolve the partnership between us, right?"
Shi Li said, "Why is this a trivial matter?!"
"Haven't you eaten with others these days?" Kumano asked.
He was not ignorant of what Shi Li had done. It's just that he didn't know if he wanted to maintain the relationship between the two.
Shi Li froze.
Kumano said: "I will dissolve your partnership with you as you wish."
"What did you say?" Shi Li looked at Kumano in surprise.
He had already made up his mind to first tell Kumano the benefits of going to different territories, persuade Kumano to manage different territories with him, and then slowly reduce his contact with Kumano. After a year or two, he would break up with Kumano. relationship.
As a result, he was ready for a protracted battle, and Kumano agreed so easily.
"Now apart, we are still friends." Kumano said. He has been in friendship with Shi Li for so many years, and now that they are separated, the two can still be friends. If it goes on like this, he thinks that he will want to make a clean break with Shi Li, or even beat him to death.
Shi Li said, "I'm sorry."
"It's okay." Kumano said: "I'm going to rest, you go out."
Hearing what Kumano said, Shi Li left the house where Kumano lived. After he left, he was a little dazed.
He had always wanted to get rid of Kumano, and now he finally got rid of it, but it felt unreal.
A little guilty again.
Kumano liked him very much, and was even willing to be friends with him after the dissolution of the partnership, but unfortunately he could not repay Kumano.
Kumano didn't know what Shi Li was thinking. After Shi Li left, he lay down and fell asleep.
In the past few days, his heart had been tense, but now that he has said what he should say, he feels much better.
Zhou Ji has been observing secretly.
Seeing Kumano's choice, he kind of wanted to give Kumano a thumbs up.
Before, he was afraid that Xiong Ye would not want to separate from Shi Li, but he didn't expect him to be so straightforward!
After contacting him in the past few days, he already had a good impression of Kumano, and this time it was even more so.
Zhou Ji is in a good mood, but the high priest is entangled at the moment.
After discovering that the beast god likes Shi Li, he didn't tell anyone, but carefully observed Shi Li.
Then, he found that Shi Li was a bit fussy, and when he saw young and beautiful people, he always looked at him a few more times.
The high priest is going to die of grief!
How could the Beast God fall in love with such a Beast King? He felt that Shi Li was not worthy of a great god!
But as long as the gods like it, he still has to support it.
The high priest ran into Shi Li again.
"The Lion King." The high priest said.
"High Priest." Shi Li smiled, feeling very good.
He found that the Beast Temple was very concerned about him, could it be... When he went to the Beast Temple, he attracted the attention of the gods and was loved by the gods
"I heard that the Lion and Beast King often gathers with people?" the high priest asked.
"Yes." Shi Li said, finding that the high priest's expression was a bit wrong, and asked, "What's the problem?"
"Lion Beast King, you are a person with a partner, you shouldn't do such a thing." The high priest said, he felt that he needed to let Shi Li not worry too much.
"High Priest, I have already planned to terminate the partnership with the Bear and Beast King." Shi Li quickly clarified, and added: "Please rest assured, High Priest, I will never do anything wrong to him when we have not terminated our partnership. "
High Priest: "..." It doesn't matter what you do to Kumano, but you can't be sorry to the Beast God!
But now Shi Li doesn't know anything, and he can't say anything...
The high priest was a little worried, but he could only say goodbye to Shi Li with a smile.
However, Shi Li intends to terminate the partnership with Kumano, which is always a good thing... The high priest intends to go to Kumano to find out the news.
When the high priest came to Kumano, it was time for dinner.
The door of Kumano's house was open, and the high priest saw someone eating with Kumano from a distance. He also heard voices... Shi Li's incident did not affect Kumano, which made the high priest feel less guilty.
But after approaching, the high priest suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Why is the person across from Kumano so familiar
And this person's voice... The high priest suddenly discovered that the person who was saying to Kumano, "Since you like to eat this kind of fruit, I'll bring you some more tomorrow" turned out to be a beast god!
As soon as the high priest's knees softened, he wanted to kneel down, but he didn't succeed, so that's fine, his mouth was speechless.
Just when he couldn't move, Kumano saw him: "High priest, is something wrong?"
Then, Zhou Ji also stood up in "panic" and bowed to the High Priest: "Hi, High Priest!"
High Priest: "..."
