Chapter 130 - Zhu Zhu

Ch130 – Zhu Zhu

That female pig wasn’t actually running their way. Zhou Ji opened up a corner of his tent and pointed in a certain direction, “Zhu Zhan, there seems to be someone over there, go and check it out.”

“Someone?” Zhu Zhan’s eyes lit up.

He was very eager to meet up with people from the Giant Pig Tribe. It would be great if it was someone he was familiar with, as it meant that he could ask about Zhu Zhu’s situation directly. If it was someone who he had a grudge with, he could also just fight them first before asking about the situation.

It didn’t matter as long as he was able to meet someone.

Zhu Zhan’s subordinates were thinking the same thing as Zhu Zhan, so they all headed in the direction that Zhou Ji had pointed out despite the heavy rain. As a result, they hadn’t run for long when they heard the sound of footsteps, and a little while later… They saw Zhu Zhu!

“Zhu Zhu!” Zhu Zhan expression lit up with pleasure as he shouted. That female pig froze for a minute then hurriedly skidded to a stop, but the two little piglets were still charging forward and directly knocked over the unsuspecting, Zhu Zhan in human form. They even trampled all over him.

Zhu Zhan lay there on the ground, his face covered in rain and stepped on by two small, yet still over fifty kilogram piglets, and found that he was in a great mood. “Daughter! Son! You guys have become heavier again!”

Zhu Zhan had a total of two daughters and one son. The eldest and the youngest were girls, and the middle child was a boy.

Now that they’d reunited so suddenly, and both Zhu Zhu and his three children were alright, he felt like he was at the top of the world.

Zhou Ji really deserved to be called the Beast God’s messenger!

He must have known that Zhu Zhu would come and had therefore chosen to set up camp at this place… Thank the Beast God, thank Zhou Ji!

Zhou Ji felt that he really shouldn’t have doubted Zhou Ji’s identity at the start… Zhou Ji was more like the Beast God’s messenger than those priests at the Beast God Temple!

He had to properly thank Zhou Ji!

Zhu Zhan was in the midst of being delighted when the female pig in front of him set down the child in her mouth and turned back into human form, “You’re not dead?”

“I didn’t die. I’m back.” Zhu Zhan’s expression was full of joy.

As a result, Zhu Zhu turned around and started to run back, “Then hurry up and come with me! Kill them!”

Zhu Zhan: “???” What was going on?

Although he was confused, his mate had given her orders, and Zhu Zhan definitely had to follow them. He turned into his animal form and ran out along with Zhu Zhu.

Many of Zhu Zhan’s subordinates also roared and ran after them. Fortunately, there were a few who were more reliable, remaining behind to look after the three children, “Dazhu, Erzhu, Sanzhu, don’t run around. Come over here with uncle.”

Zhu Zhan’s three children recognized Zhu Zhan’s subordinates and all gathered closer. Zhu Zhan’s subordinates patted Dazhu and Erzhu who were in animal form and said, “Turn back into your human forms and talk to your uncle.”

Dazhu and Erzhu obediently turned back into human form. They looked a lot darker and thinner than before.

Zhu Zhan’s subordinates were very distressed by this, “Dazhu, Erzhu, you guys have suffered… Has someone been bullying you? Is that why you were running like this in the rain?”

“No!” Dazhu said, “Our mother just went back to the tribe and tore down someone’s house and broke some people’s legs. We were just leaving.”

So that’s what it was… Zhu Zhu was really worthy of being someone who could even chase their boss around… Zhu Zhan subordinates continued to ask more about matters regarding the Giant Pig Tribe.

Dazhu was already thirteen years old. Unlike the dazed and foolish Xi Baobei, she was very clever. Now, she talked non-stop, telling them everything she knew and proudly sharing a lot about how their mother had gone to make trouble for others.

Because she’d been worried about leaving her children behind and having them get taken away by people or be injured by dinosaurs, Zhu Zhu would bring the three children with her when she went out to cause trouble.

Zhou Ji, who had been using his spiritual powers to observe the situation: “……”

When Zhou Ji had first discovered that female pig’s situation, he had thought that the other party was being chased, to the point where he even felt a little embarrassed–he should’ve set up camp later on so that Zhu Zhan could find her earlier.

He now knew that this hadn’t been the case.

Zhu Zhan’s woman was quite good at causing a disturbance… There was heavy rain that day, and everyone was nesting at home instead of venturing outside, but Zhu Zhu, who had learned some truths about Zhu Zhan’s supposed death, had run off to the Giant Pig Tribe to make trouble for the killers. Not only had she collapsed a house, she had also injured and broken the legs of two of Zhu Zhan’s younger brothers.

After that, she had taken her children with her and run away, planning to stay far away from the Giant Pig Tribe.

She had been driven out of the Giant Pig Tribe before winter, and had had to take care of three children during the winter. If she had gone far away from the Giant Pig Tribe at the time, she would’ve been leaving the environment she was familiar with. Even if she managed to live on, the children would’ve lost their lives, so she had remained near the Giant Pig Tribe.

However, spring was coming, and there was more food available everywhere!

Zhu Zhu planned to pull off a grand trick today, then take the three children with her and leave so they could go live somewhere else!

She had even laid out her plans, intending to go to the Beast God Temple and take advantage of the fact that many tribes would gather near the Beast God Temple during the Beast God Sacrifice in order to find a new tribe to join.

Some tribes were rich in resources but lacking in combat power. They would probably welcome her.

As for how that might offend the Giant Pig Tribe… As long as she found a tribe that was relatively far away, there was no need to be afraid of the Giant Pig Tribe!

Zhu Zhu had planned very well and had pulled off her grand plan today, but she’d never expected that she would encounter the Zhu Zhan that she’d thought was dead while she was running for her life.

Those younger brothers of Zhu Zhan’s weren’t as strong as Zhu Zhan, but they had numbers on their side. That was what had caused the current situation–they all had a bit of power of their own, but each individual’s power wasn’t high!

This time, Zhu Zhu had only made a move against three people who had the same mother, so there were only three sets of subordinates chasing after her. As for the other siblings… They were happy to watch as Zhu Zhu dealt with those three people and might even give her some help.

If it hadn’t been for that point, Zhu Zhu wouldn’t have made a move at all. She also wouldn’t have called for Zhu Zhan to come with her to help go up against her pursuers after running into him.

They could now kill the people who were chasing after them!

The water that had been set over the fire in Zhou Ji’s tent finally boiled.

Zhou Ji put a bit of salted vegetables inside, letting the flavor diffuse through the soup. Additionally, the rice balls wrapped in leaves had already gotten burnt on the outside, so the rice balls inside were now hot.

Zhou Ji removed the rice balls from several layers of scorched leaves and took a bite. In this primitive society, he had met a lot of simple people, of which Hai Feng was a good example , but he had also met others with good brains, like Zhu Zhan and his woman.

It was probably because they had encountered many schemes against them since childhood.

“Zhou Ji, be careful of getting scalded.” Xiong Ye took out another rice ball from the leaves and placed it inside Zhou Ji’s bowl.

Despite having a fire, their tent was still a little damp and uncomfortable due to the heavy rain. Fortunately, they were able to use their energy to keep the moisture and water out.

“This weather’s really bad…” Xiong Ye said, his eyebrows pulling together in a frown, “Someone started fighting… It’s Zhu Zhan?”

“It’s Zhu Zhan. He won’t lose, don’t worry about it.” Zhou Ji said.

Xiong Ye stopped worrying about it once he heard Zhou Ji’s words.

And Zhou Ji hadn’t been wrong. Zhu Zhan indeed wasn’t about to lose. Not long afterwards, he was already bringing back several people who had been beaten up all over.

When these people were brought back, some of them were still shouting angrily, “Zhu Zhan, you actually dared to come back! The tribal chief won’t let you off…”

Zhu Zhan punched him in the face, and the man spat out a mouthful of blood and no longer spoke.

At this time, Zhu Zhu who had always been in animal form turned human again.

Before, when Zhu Zhu had turned into human form, Zhu Zhan hadn’t thought much about it because he’d been anxious. This time, though, he immediately stepped in front of Zhu Zhu and told someone to get a piece of animal hide to wrap around Zhu Zhu’s body.

“What’s the point of being so particular?” Zhu Zhu slapped Zhu Zhan on the back, “Oh, right, weren’t you exiled to the wild forest? How did you come back? How come your leg is alright now?”

Zhu Zhu’s voice had been quite relaxed when she started speaking, but she became a little choked up towards the end.

Zhu Zhan said, “I met the Beast God’s messenger! He healed me and brought me back! The Beast God is the greatest!”

Zhou Ji: “……” He might never be able to come clean to Xiong Ye about the fact that the Beast God didn’t exist.

Juurensha: ….Zhu Zhu is the best!
