Chapter 38
Lu Yu’s head buzzed, and he passed out.
After an unknown amount of ti, he slowly opened his eyes.
The glaring sunlight shone through the leaves.
Lu Yu shielded his eyes with his hand and waited for them to adjust before removing his hand.
He sat up and looked around.
It was a dense and ordinary forest, with only a few bird calls and the rustling of leaves in the wind, no other sounds.
So… where was he now? Still in the primitive world?
Lu Yu wasn’t sure.
The only thing he was sure of was that he didn’t know what was wrong with him. Eating lion at would cause him to traverse.
Last ti, he was directly transported to the primitive world. This ti, who knows where he would end up…
However, judging by the appearance of these plants, it seed to be a relatively ancient era.
Lu Yu got up from the ground and checked his whole body.
He was still wearing the animal skin skirt, and the wound on his waist was still there, oozing blood. It hurt when touched, but it didn’t seem too serious.
Lu Yu took out so long, soft leaves from his ring and wrapped the wound on his waist.
Now that he didn’t know where he was, it was better to save the red dicine.
Thinking of the red dicine, Lu Yu suddenly changed his thoughts about the ga panel. He thought, what if he didn’t co here and lose the cheat code?
Fortunately, the light blue screen popped up quickly.
Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
“Huh?” He noticed a new ssage and furrowed his brows slightly.
【Space Movent *2, Panel Usage Tis *2】
He understood the usage tis of the panel, but what about space movent?
What was this panel up to again?
Wait a minute, does this an the panel knows that he’s transported to another place just by eating at?
To be honest, Lu Yu had always thought that he was just like those characters in ti-travel novels, with a cheat code out of nowhere that no one could explain.
But now, he had a vague feeling that this ga panel of his seed to be so kind of high-tech product… And maybe he was just a test subject?
But why would they experint on him? And what does it an to be transported just by eating at?
Questions filled Lu Yu’s mind.
It seed that he could only explore slowly.
The most urgent task now was still to survive…
Sigh, after months of hard work, everything was on the right track, but now, he was suddenly thrown back to square one. And those people from Matai, Xia Cao, Shan Pu, Shi Tou… and him…
Forget it, let’s not think about it for now.
Lu Yu suppressed his complex emotions and took out a spare grass cloak from the ring, wrapping it around himself, and then retrieved a spear.
Once he was ready, he took a deep breath and cautiously moved forward.
Now, all he could hope for was that he was still in the modern era, or perhaps back in the primitive world with the Matai people…
—
Tai Lie ran to the entrance of a small cave.
The weeds at the entrance were trampled, clearly by a wild beast, with blood stains on them.
Tai Lie furrowed his brows, clenched his fists, and strode inside.
In the dim cave, there lay a lion, alive or dead, next to it was a spear, and traces of blood.
Tai Lie’s heart tightened.
Following the direction of the bloodstains, he saw the wound on the lion’s leg.
A wound clearly bitten by a human, a wound that could only be caused if the lion had been restrained.
In an instant, Tai Lie almost couldn’t control his raging emotions. With the speed of lightning, he flashed to the lion and grabbed its neck.
The pulsating of the blood vessels in his hand told him that the lion was still alive.
The lion was still alive, but where was Lu Yu?
Tai Lie forced himself to calm down.
There were no broken bones or flesh around, indicating that Lu Yu had not been eaten by this lion.
Could it be… Lu Yu stunned this lion and then ran away?
Tai Lie’s heart of anger paused for a mont.
—
Lu Yu caught a wild rabbit.
Perhaps due to the increased physical activity during this period, his movents were much faster, and catching the rabbit was a bit easier.
Seeing a small red dicine drop from the rabbit, Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, the cheat code was still useful.
After walking for half a day, Lu Yu also noticed.
Although he had never been to this place, judging from the types of flora and fauna and the surrounding environnt, there was a high probability that he was still in the primitive world, but he didn’t know exactly where.
Ti was also a problem.
He didn’t know if it had regressed or moved forward.
Lu Yu put away the rabbit and the small red dicine, continuing to walk forward. Since he didn’t know the exact direction, he could only rely on the position of the sun to choose a direction.
After walking for a while, there was suddenly so movent ahead. The alert bulb on Lu Yu’s head lit up instantly. With quick and gentle movents, he hid behind a tree.
After a mont, two people holding spears and wearing animal skin skirts walked by. They stood under a nearby big tree and opened their animal skin skirts.
“I haven’t been to the Beast Plains yet.”
“You talk as if I’ve been there before. It was always Gan Shi and Chief Jiao Feng who went together…”
“What Chief Jiao Feng? Are you daring to ntion him now? Be careful if Chief Mao Pu hears about it, he’ll punish you!”
“Hey, I’m just talking here. Chief Mao Pu isn’t here. But is what those people said true? Is Chief Mao Pu really in the Beast Plains? Could they be lying to us?”
“Those people must have too much ti on their hands to lie to us!”
“Even if they didn’t try to divert us, those people could do whatever they wanted!” One person adjusted his animal skin skirt and shook his head.
“You’re right!” A voice sounded.
“Of course I’m right!” The person raised his head smugly, but quickly realized, “Huh? Who’s talking?!” The voice just now didn’t belong to any of his companions.
The person next to him also looked puzzled. “I didn’t say anything.”
Seeing that the two had finished adjusting their animal skin skirts, Lu Yu walked out leisurely. “I’m the one who spoke.”
The two n from the Blackwater Tribe were startled, grabbing their spears from the side and turning around, “Who’s there?!”
Lu Yu smiled faintly.
His current mood, how should I put it, was very good.
It seems his luck was still good. Not only was he not transported to a strange place, but he was also still in the primitive society. Moreover, he encountered the team from the Blackwater Tribe heading to the Beast Plains.
“You’re… from that ruthless tribe…” One of them squinted and recognized Lu Yu.
Lu Yu waved his hand politely and humbly, “Actually, we are all very reasonable people, not at all ruthless.”
The two n: …
Curiously, Lu Yu asked, “By the way, are you guys heading to the Beast Plains?”
The two n put down their spears, “Yeah, isn’t it because you guys told us our Chief is waiting for us in the Beast Plains?”
Lu Yu nodded, “That’s right, Mao Pu is still living in the wooden shed we lent him.”
One of them frowned, “But, how co you’re alone here?”
Lu Yu coughed, “We went out hunting and got separated accidentally when we encountered a herd of beasts.”
The man looked puzzled, “Separated?”
Lu Yu’s expression turned serious, “Yes, there’s a large group of beasts nearby. I advise you to take a different route.”
The two n beca anxious upon hearing this, “But the captain said this is the safest route to the Beast Plains.”
Just as Lu Yu suspected! From the mont he deduced that these two were from the Blackwater Tribe heading to the Beast Plains, he guessed they might be taking the route that Mao Pu ntioned back then— the one with fewer wild animals but a longer detour, which is where they were now.
That’s why he didn’t recognize the surroundings, as he had never been here before. Now, all he needed was for them to take him to the route he knew.
Lu Yu was a bit eager, “I know a route that can avoid the wild animals and safely lead us to the Beast Plains. Take
to see your Chief, quickly.”
The two n didn’t dare delay and imdiately took Lu Yu to find their captain.
This group from the Blackwater Tribe consisted of about twenty people in total. In response to their chief’s request, they brought enough fur and food to et up with him in the Beast Plains.
The captain, who had been to the Beast Plains with the forr Chief a couple of tis before, though it was a long ti ago, believed half of what Lu Yu said when he ntioned the presence of wild animal groups nearby.
Lu Yu subtly convinced him, “Think about it, do I have any reason to deceive you? Besides, I’ll also be taking the sa route with you, and people from my tribe should be heading there as well.”
After thinking for a mont, the captain nodded, “Alright, which route are you talking about?”
Lu Yu replied, “The shortest one, the one that goes straight through.”
The captain agreed, “Got it.”
Lu Yu followed the people from the Blackwater Tribe, walking along the sa route they took when they went to the Beast Plains initially.
After walking for half a day, Lu Yu finally saw the familiar surroundings, feeling overjoyed.
This is it! If I continue walking for another two hours, I’ll be able to see the Matai village!
Lu Yu suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart and turned to the captain of the Blackwater Tribe, saying, “This is it. Keep going in that direction, and you’ll reach the Beast Plains.”
Lu Yu wasn’t deceiving them. Most of the formidable beast groups along this route had been taken care of by the Matai tribe. Walking here was more convenient and faster, which could be considered a bit of reward for bringing him along. He hoped they could just leave peacefully.
But it seed that things didn’t go as he wished. The captain, who had been cooperating all along, nodded and then fell silent for a mont. A glint of darkness flashed in his eyes. “…It seems like we haven’t seen anyone from your tribe?”
Hearing this, Lu Yu felt uneasy. He knew there was a risk in approaching the Blackwater Tribe, considering their past conflicts and their knowledge of him being a shaman. However, if he didn’t follow them, he wouldn’t find his way.
He had hinted all along that his tribe’s people were nearby, but he didn’t expect this from the captain…
Lu Yu remained calm on the surface. “Maybe they’re nearby. Anyway, it’s not far from our tribe, and I can go back by myself.”
The captain’s gaze towards Lu Yu gradually deepened as he stepped closer. “I think it’s too dangerous to go alone. Why don’t you co with us to the Beast Plains?”
He had been part of the initial attack on the Matai tribe and had witnessed Lu Yu’s abilities. Such a person, even if not recruited, could be sold off in the Beast Plains. When the buyer took him away and kept him locked up, there would be no risk.
“No, thanks.” Lu Yu took a step back, his fists clenched behind him.
If this man kept advancing, he would run. Could he outrun the wild beasts and these ordinary people?
Just as Lu Yu was about to bolt, a sudden change occurred!
A lion descended from above!
But it didn’t pounce. It was thrown like a rock, straight towards the captain.
The experienced captain quickly dodged, narrowly avoiding the attack.
Lu Yu’s eyes lit up with excitent and joy.
This unlucky bald lion!
And that majestic attacking technique!
Lu Yu turned around with a gasp.
A tall and sturdy figure, backlit by the setting sun, strode towards them.
Accompanied by the man’s deep, hoarse voice.
“I’ve found you.”
