Crossing To The Primitive With A Game Panel

Lu Yu walked to the door, about to knock, when he heard a coarse, heavy panting coming from inside, creeping out through the cracks of the wooden door.

Sexy, ambiguous, thought-provoking.

The hand that Lu Yu used to knock on the door stiffened for a moment, then silently withdrew.

It seems like… he heard something extraordinary…

Hmm… actually, thinking about it makes sense.

The Matai people are also human, they must have that kind of life too. Tai Lie hasn’t married yet, and he’s not the type to fool around. He must be taking care of himself, enjoying life.

He just don’t know if he has any tissue paper… ahem, leaves. If he didn’t bring any, the whole room must smell…

Wait, why is he even thinking about these things?

Lu Yu knocked on his own head, possibly encountering something too unexpected and not staying clear-headed, then turned around and quietly returned to his room.

That night, Lu Yu tossed and turned, wondering if it was just his imagination, feeling like he always heard some strange sounds in his ears, and even seemed to smell something fishy…

What’s even scarier is that in his mind, the expression Tai Lie had when doing such things automatically surfaced.

Furrowed brows, slightly trembling eyes, sweat dripping from his face to the rolling Adam’s apple…

—

Truly, going crazy.

Lu Yu raised his arm and pressed his eyes with his forearm.

In the morning, on his way to the river to wash up, Lu Yu saw Tai Lie not far away, packing up the hunted animals.

Lu Yu inexplicably felt a bit guilty, took a step back, and made a big circle around.

Shan Pu came back from the riverbank and happened to see this scene, scratching his head, asking in confusion, “Witch, what are you doing?”

Before, when the Witch saw the King, he would happily go up to greet him, but why does it seem like he’s avoiding the King today?

Lu Yu nervously chuckled, “This is the Witch’s daily practice method, you wouldn’t understand.”

Shan Pu nodded in realization, “Oh, I see.”

Lu Yu: …

Thanks for your innocence.

But thinking about his own actions just now, it seemed like he was indeed trying to cover up.

Lu Yu squatted by the river, washed his face several times with cold water, and looked at himself in the water for a while, finally calming his mind a bit.

—

In the morning, Lu Yu collected some hemp grass, opened the panel, and checked how much more material was needed to upgrade the village.

[Primitive Village (Upgradeable)]

[Materials Required for Upgrade]

[Wood 1002/2000]

[Stone 314/1000

[Clay (Wet) 768/1000]

[Branches 403/500]

[Hemp Leaves 348/500]

Due to the proximity to water sources and forests, progress with wood and clay was still okay, but stone collection was slow. There were already few suitable stones here, and bringing them back from outside was heavy and would burden the hunting team even more.

Lu Yu rubbed his chin and thought, it seems he has to go out for a trip. After all, he has a storage ring, which is perfect for carrying these stones.

But, speaking of which, although the Matai tribe is full of talented individuals, there are too few people. It’s already a bit difficult for the first upgrade of the village, what if the required materials double in the future?

It’s truly worrisome.

—

After lunch, the Matai tribe’s hunting team was going out to hunt, and Lu Yu requested to accompany them.

Shan Pu excitedly raised his small knife, “Witch, come with my team, I’ll protect you!”

Lian Shun squeezed in, “Witch should come with our team, we don’t have to go that far, Shan Pu’s hunting grounds are quite far.”

Shan Pu angrily retorted, “That’s because I exchanged with you!”

Lian Shun shrugged, indifferent, “You didn’t have to exchange.”

Shan Pu closed his mouth angrily. Not exchanging was impossible. He still wanted to eat more of the Witch’s roasted meat.

Lu Yu smiled and said, “I want to go where there are many stones.”

“Oh, so the Witch is going to collect stones,” Shan Pu suddenly realized, without much thought, he said, “Then go with the King, there are many stones where they are going.”

Lu Yu hesitated for a moment, then sighed and turned to Tai Lie with a candid smile, “Then, please take me with you, King.”

—

The location where Tai Lie and the others hunted was not too far from the cave they lived in before, but there were fewer grass and trees, and more stones. These small to medium-sized stones just happened to meet Lu Yu’s requirements.

Lu Yu picked and chose, taking one piece after another. If it weren’t for the limited space in the ring, he would have wanted to wave his hand and monopolize all the stones in this land.

Lu Yu happily scavenged for a while until he finally realized something was wrong. He turned to Tai Lie and the others who had been silently picking up stones behind him, feeling ashamed.

“I must have delayed your hunting, right?”

Hunting required long hours of hiding and waiting, and doing this almost equated to wasting time.

Lu Yu said seriously, “You guys go ahead, I’ll be fine here.”

Tai Lie remained expressionless, unmoving.

Lu Yu: …

Okay, Tai Lie couldn’t do it.

What if there’s any random wolf could snatch him away.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yu decided to join them in hunting. After all, the other materials wouldn’t be gathered quickly either, and they could always come back tomorrow.

—

The group found a spot with a wide view to hide.

This was a spot Tai Lie and the others had scoped out yesterday, as herds of elk might pass through at this time every day.

Lu Yu became interested when he heard about the elk. Elk were large animals, so they might drop something good too.

They ambushed for nearly an hour without seeing anything. It was all quiet around them.

Until a moving black dot appeared within their sight.

Lu Yu squinted to take a look.

That didn’t seem like an elk, it was too small, and there was only one. Could it be a lost elk calf?

After waiting for a while, Lu Yu was shocked to finally see what it was.

It was actually a human child!

Appearing to be around fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a tattered beast skin skirt that barely covered their body, stumbling as they ran.

At that moment, a distant rumbling sound suddenly emerged.

A huge elk, appearing to weigh two or three tons, seemed light but every step it took stirred up dust and rocks as it quickly dashed towards them.

Tai Lie said indifferently, “That elk is chasing after that person.”

Lu Yu focused and indeed, the elk’s direction was towards the child, who seemed to have noticed as well and was running even harder. However, the kid seemed to be injured and couldn’t run fast enough.

Lu Yu gritted his teeth.

Should he save them? Or not?

After all, it was a child, just watching them die like this was too…

But if he had the ability to save them himself, it would be fine. How could he let Tai Lie and the others take risks because of him…

“Get ready, hunting the elk!” Tai Lie suddenly said.

“Yes!” the others responded without hesitation.

Lu Yu hesitated, “King…”

Tai Lie said calmly, “We came here to hunt in the first place.”

…Right, it seemed so.

He seemed to have been overthinking it.

Lu Yu didn’t say anything more, just reminded them to quickly take medicine if they got injured, and obediently hid behind the rocks, not wanting to slow them down.

He also opened the game panel and scanned it.

[Elk: Land Melee]

[Threat level: C]

[Drop rate: D-grade elk leather gloves]

[Advanced racial abilities unknown]

Elk leather gloves? Is it a weapon?

Lu Yu scratched his face, wondering what elk leather gloves were, then suddenly realized.

Wait a minute, there seems to be something mixed in the information…

—

For a Matai person with small red pills, no sense of pain, and incredible bravery, killing an elk was relatively easy.

Tai Lie used a wooden stick to stab the elk’s neck and gave it the final blow. The massive elk collapsed to the ground with a bang.

The elk generously dropped a golden treasure chest.

Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and happily ran over there.

First, he went to pick up the treasure chest, then he went to see the child.

Before Tai Lie and the others could reach the child, it had already collapsed on the ground motionless.

Lu Yu approached and found that although the child’s face was dirty, it had a good-looking appearance. Long eyelashes, sharp chin, a very handsome boy.

Lu Yu checked the child breathing, still there, and quickly took out a small red pill and stuffed it into the child mouth.

He had always used small red pills to treat external injuries, not sure if it would work for fainting.

Fortunately, the small red pill was quite potent. The child woke up after a while, but the child eyes were still drowsy, and they dry-heaved uncomfortably a few times.

Lu Yu took out a bamboo tube filled with water and gave them a little.

—

Cha Zhe took a few sips of water, barely opened his eyes, and saw the person in front of him.

It was a very fair and handsome man, with soft black hair and eyes clearer than the sky.

He had never seen such a person before.

He was used to killing and bloodshed, never seen such a clean person before.

Cha Zhe felt his cold, hard heart suddenly stir.

“Do you want some more water, child?” he asked softly.

Cha Zhe nodded.

Watching him bring the water to his lips, Cha Zhe lowered his head and took a few s

ips.

He was about to retract his hand.

Cha Zhe suddenly grabbed his wrist tightly, staring at him intently with gloomy and hoarse voice, word by word.

“I am not a child.”

You’re not allowed to treat me like a child.
