Crossing To The Primitive With A Game Panel

This time, there were more words on the game panel.

[Low-Level training Ground function activated]

[Training Ground mode: Battle Training Ground/Skill Training Ground]

[View training items]

[Training Ground scene: Training Ground/Dreamland Training Ground]

[This function is connected to the home system, the training Ground can be optionally placed]

[Attention! The training level of the Dreamland Training Ground is lower, please choose carefully]

Lu Yu’s heart was pounding. Although the game panel remained the same, without explanation, just by looking at these lines, Lu Yu probably knew what the new function was.

It was exactly what they needed most now: “progress.”

The progress of their battles, and the progress of basic life skills.

Even for himself, maybe he could find a training method suitable for him to become a little stronger.

“Why are you smiling?” A deep voice sounded from above.

Lu Yu lifted his head, still wearing a smile as if he had found treasure, and subconsciously said, “Nothing—hey, your hand!”

He glanced at Tai Lie’s still bleeding palm, furrowing his brows and asked, “The pill? Haven’t you taken it?”

Every time they went hunting or anything like that, Lu Yu would give them pills to keep them on the tip of their tongues or tucked into the crevices of their leather skirts, just in case.

Tai Lie glanced at his hand, then casually put it down, “It’s just a scratch, no need for medicine.”

Relying on good physical fitness and lack of pain sensation, he really didn’t care much about his own body.

Lu Yu endured, but couldn’t help it, sighed faintly, and said helplessly, “Then at least bandage it, are you going to let the blood flow like this?”

A hint of inexplicable meaning flashed in Tai Lie’s eyes, and he said lightly, “I won’t.”

Lu Yu: …I knew it.

Helplessly, he took out a long, thin leaf from the ring, “Give me your hand.”

Tai Lie, who just said it was just a minor injury, readily extended his hand.

Lu Yu lowered his head and carefully wrapped his wound with the leaf.

Tai Lie gazed at the whirlpool on top of his head, smiling lightly like a breeze.

For some reason, Lu Yu’s face suddenly turned red. This person!

He angrily pressed on the man’s wound.

Tai Lie remained unchanged, lowered his eyes, and said seriously, “I’m not afraid of pain, you can press as hard as you want.”

Lu Yu’s face suddenly turned even redder.

Damn it, he actually forgot!

Was his brain muddled? Clearly just remembered this person had no sensation of pain, and suddenly did such a foolish thing…

Lu Yu quickly tied up the leaf, took a step back abruptly, turned his head away, “Done! It’s very simple, next time you do it yourself!”

After saying that, without waiting for his reaction, he turned and walked away.

Tai Lie watched his flustered figure and slowly closed his hand, which had been carefully bandaged.

Lu Yu went to see the archers guarded by Shan Pu lying on the ground and howling. He calmed down a bit and asked, “Are you people from the Gao Hui Tribe?”

The archer stiffened for a moment, didn’t speak, but an extremely guilty expression appeared on his face.

Shan Pu loudly exclaimed, “No need to ask, they must be from the Gao Hui Tribe!”

Lu Yu nodded and didn’t ask further.

—

Lu Yu and the others returned to the Beast Plains with the captured archers. Just as they entered the city and hadn’t walked far, Shan Pu suddenly said, “That person seems to be the chief of the Gao Hui Tribe!”

Lu Yu followed his finger and indeed saw Qiu Guang pacing anxiously in place.

Lu Yu squinted his eyes, about to speak, when Tai Lie beside him said, “Shan Pu, the bow and arrows.”

Shan Pu quickly handed over the bow and arrows he was carrying.

Lu Yu was puzzled, “Can you use a bow and arrow? Wait, why do you need them?”

Tai Lie said coldly, “To kill him.”

As he spoke, he placed the arrow on the wooden bow, raised the bow, and slowly pulled it back towards Qiu Guang in the distance.

Shan Pu even kindly introduced to Lu Yu, “The King knows how to use bows and arrows. Our tribe used to have bows and arrows, and the King and Xia Cao were particularly good at using them! It’s just that later, no one in our tribe knew how to make bows and arrows anymore…”

“Huh? Xia Cao can use them too?” Lu Yu suddenly realized, “No wonder she… Oh, no, this is not the time to talk about this. Tai Lie, wait a minute!”

Tai Lie turned his head, “What?”

Lu Yu was afraid he would shoot the arrow, so he hurriedly grabbed his arm, “It’s not that I won’t let you kill him, but fighting is not allowed in this stone city, don’t you remember?”

Tai Lie glanced down at the hand clasping his arm muscles.

Lu Yu recoiled as if burned by fire.

Tai Lie said, “Got it.”

Lu Yu nodded, and when he saw Tai Lie still raising the bow, he didn’t stop him again because he knew if Tai Lie promised, he would definitely do it.

Tai Lie aimed the arrow at Qiu Guang.

At this moment, Qiu Guang also noticed Lu Yu and the others. He first had an expression of “You actually came back alive!” admitting guilt, then he quickly realized that Tai Lie was aiming a bow and arrow at him, and he was startled.

But he quickly reacted, stood with his hands on his hips, and shouted, “This is the Beast Plains! If you dare to touch me, you’re dead!”

Tai Lie moved the arrow up a bit.

Qiu Guang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Before he could sneer, he saw an arrow shot out from the opposite side, aimed directly at his head.

Qiu Guang looked up in confusion.

Just as he looked up, a large, black shadow plopped down on his face.

Qiu Guang: !!!

“What is this thing!”

He reached for his face, grabbed the black lump and looked at it, only to find that it was actually a black hawk.

The hawk was dead beyond death, the arrow had pierced its body viciously, and its bright red blood stained Qiu Guang’s hand.

Lu Yu and Tai Lie had already walked over.

Tai Lie said indifferently, “If there’s a next time, you’ll be this hawk.”

Qiu Guang looked at his sharp eyes, shivering involuntarily, and didn’t speak until Tai Lie and the others walked away.

People from the Gao Hui Tribe approached cautiously, “Chief…”

Qiu Guang’s eyes darkened, “Send someone to the forest to find the body.”

—

Lu Yu and the others returned to the wooden hut with a full harvest.

As they approached, they saw various types of prey laid out on the ground.

“King, you’re back!” The Matai and Mao Pu who stayed behind rushed over excitedly.

The Matai reported, “Many people brought prey today—” He was interrupted before he could finish his sentence.

“Hmph, you finally came back. You made me wait for so long,” Yin He said with crossed arms, looking annoyed.

Lu Yu smiled and walked in.

There were about a dozen people who brought prey, ranging from lions and tigers to even a blue rhinoceros.

Seeing Lu Yu’s gaze fixed on the blue rhinoceros, Yin He raised his chin proudly and said, “What do you think? Haven’t seen one before, have you? Blue rhinoceroses are very rare to hunt!”

Lu Yu replied, “Indeed, they’re quite difficult to hunt.” For ordinary people like them, it was quite rare.

Yin He frowned, “When are you going to roast the meat for me?”

Lu Yu replied, “I already told you before, I’ll just help you process it. You can roast it yourself when you take it back. The taste won’t be much different.”

Then, Lu Yu added, “But before processing it, I need to check the quality of your prey. If it’s good, then you can take it back, skin it, clean it, and bring it back for me to process.”

Yin He wrinkled his brow, “Why is it so troublesome?”

Lu Yu earnestly persuaded, “It’s only through such trouble that we can eat delicious roasted meat. If you agree, I can take your prey to check it now.”

Yin He rolled his eyes, “Fine.”

The others waiting eagerly asked, “What about us? What about us?”

Lu Yu smiled, “Don’t worry, one at a time, I’ll check them quickly.”

After saying that, Lu Yu had the Matai move the blue rhinoceros into the wooden hut.

Lu Yu opened the game panel and searched.

[Blue Rhinoceros: Terrestrial Melee]

[Savage Level: B]

[Drop Rate: C-grade Ox Bone Bow]

It was a weapon!

Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and nervously instructed Shan Pu to deliver the final blow to the rhinoceros.

With a thud, a bright golden treasure chest appeared before him.

Got it!

Lu Yu felt joy not only because he obtained a treasure but also because of a faint suspicion he had.

This suspicion was that the drop rate of treasures from beasts in the same area seemed to gradually decrease, while the drop rate of treasures from beasts in different areas upon initial inspection seemed to be high.

So Lu Yu wanted to use this method to verify it, and now it seemed very likely to be correct.

Lu Yu took the dead blue rhinoceros out and said to Yin He, “I’ve finished checking. The meat of this rhinoceros is good. Take it back, clean it up, and bring it back for me.” Without waiting for Yin He’s reaction, he turned around and loudly declared, “Next!”

—

In the end, these dozen or so prey dropped a total of seven treasure chests, which almost confirmed Lu Yu’s suspicion.

It seems that in the future, they would have to go farther to hunt. Lu Yu thought.

Apart from the bull horn bow, there were also three weapons and three pieces of armor.

Actually, Lu Yu also wanted another storage ring. His current one seemed to be insufficient. Unfortunately, it seemed that only mammoths could drop it.

When Yin He and the others brought over the meat, Lu Yu brushed it with the pre-prepared seasoning.

This was his exclusive barbecue sauce. As long as these people didn’t overcook the meat, it would definitely be delicious.

In the evening, apart from Mao Pu, who had already gone to sleep, the Matai people sat around the campfire whispering.

There were also two Matai standing nearby as guards.

Shan Pu was the first to speak, “King, Witch, we’ve got all the supplies we need. When do we go back?”

Including the time on the road, they had been away from their small village for a full six days. Shan Pu hadn’t been separated from his tribe for such a long time before, and he was starting to miss them.

Lu Yu teased him, “Are you missing Xia Hua?”

Xia Hua was a girl Shan Pu liked, but she hadn’t agreed to marry him yet.

Shan Pu scratched his head awkwardly, “Not just her, but also Lian Shun and Xia Cao. Every single person is eager to go back.”

Lu Yu smiled. Each Matai person had their own personality, but they were all genuinely good people.

However, in Lu Yu’s opinion, they could stay here for two more days to gather some more treasure chests. But, after being away for so many days, he was starting to worry about the situation back in the Matai village. It would be good to return sooner rather than later.

But there was one thing…

Lu Yu glanced at Tai Lie.

Shan Pu and the others didn’t know that their purpose for coming this time was not only to collect materials but also to inquire about the events of those years.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Tai Lie, did you find anything?”

He knew Tai Lie must have observed every person they encountered over the past two days.

Tai Lie shook his head and replied flatly, “Nothing.”

Shan Pu was puzzled, “Nothing about what?”

Lu Yu decided not to tell them for now. Shan Pu was still somewhat immature, and Tai Lie hadn’t found anything yet, so there was no point in telling them.

“Nothing,” Lu Yu replied to Shan Pu first, then suddenly remembered something and turned to Tai Lie, “How about we go to the Commission Area again tomorrow? I want to exchange some fur for stone and bone tools, and also ask the supervisor…”

Perhaps the supervisor, who collected a lot of information, might know something. They could subtly inquire about it…

Lu Yu winked at Tai Lie, trying to convey this information to him.

Shan Pu tilted his head and stared at Lu Yu, “Lu Yu, are you feeling okay?”

Lu Yu: …

You probably won’t talk even when you’re a thousand years old.

Seeing Lu Yu’s frustrated look, Tai Lie felt a little relieved. “Okay,” he agreed.

He added, “After exchanging what you need, we’ll return to the village.”

Shan Pu cheered.

The night was quiet.

Lu Yu lay on the ground, opened the game panel, and selected the “Low-Level Training Ground” to check the options.

Perhaps because this new feature was still at a low level, there weren’t many training options available.

Under combat training, there were basic military training and simple scenario simulations.

Under skill training, there were basic weapon and armor crafting, and basic household item crafting.

After some thought, Lu Yu decided to let Tai Lie and the others use the “Field Training Ground” first, and he would see what the “Dreamland Training Ground” was like. If it was suitable, he could consider opening the skill training ground for the people in the basin.

After reading the simple introduction, Lu Yu felt a little itchy inside and wanted to click “Start Training” to see what it was like. But then he remembered that they were still outside.

Forget it, there’s no rush for these few days. It’s better to go back to their village to take a closer look.

The next day.

Lu Yu and the others arrived early at the Commission Area.

Lu Yu said to Shan Pu and the others, “You go and exchange for the stone and bone tools we talked about earlier. King and I will ask some questions.”

Shan Pu wanted to ask more, but was pulled by Lei Shui. He looked back at Lei Shui and obediently agreed, “Okay, we’ll get everything exchanged.”

Lu Yu nodded and walked with Tai Lie towards the supervisor.

This supervisor was actually a very friendly old man who seemed very approachable.

But Lu Yu wouldn’t let his guard down. After all, he was chosen by the three major tribes to be stationed here.

As soon as the old man saw them, he asked cheerfully, “You’re back again? Didn’t find what you were looking for?”

Lu Yu also smiled, “We found it, but we want to ask you something.”

The old man asked, “What is it?”

Lu Yu sighed, “It’s like this. About ten years ago, there was a tribe called Zhou Fang that saved my father’s life. My father was bedridden for several months before he got a little better and wanted to thank them. But at that time, he didn’t ask for the location of the Zhou Fang tribe. This land is so vast, and before he could find them, he passed away, leaving me with this task. But I don’t even know what those people look like. How can I find them? So I wanted to ask you if you’ve heard of the Zhou Fang tribe?”

Lu Yu knew that he definitely couldn’t directly inquire about the incident from ten years ago, so he subtly asked about the Zhou Fang tribe that had participated in the siege of the Matai.

Tai Lie said that they had later gone to look for this tribe, only to find that they had all disappeared…

“Zhou Fang?” the old man frowned.

Lu Yu discreetly observed every expression on his face.

After thinking for a while, the old man shook his head, “I’ve never heard of this small tribe, sorry, I can’t help you.”

His expression seemed normal, as if he genuinely didn’t know anything.

Lu Yu pretended to be disappointed and said, “That’s okay, we’ll just leave then. Thank you.”

After saying that, he briefly bid farewell and left with Tai Lie.

When they reached a corner with few people around, Lu Yu’s expression changed. He pulled Tai Lie’s arm and whispered, “That man lied.”

Tai Lie furrowed his brows, “What?”

Lu Yu said solemnly, “He used all his strength to maintain his facial expression, but neglected to organize his language. I never mentioned whether the Zhou Fang tribe was large or small, but he blurted out ‘this small tribe,’ indicating that he definitely knows something, at least about Zhou Fang. He’s not completely clueless.”

Upon hearing this, Tai Lie’s aura began to surge.

Lu Yu looked up, concerned, and said, “Tai Lie, let’s go back and plan this carefully.”

This old man was from the three major tribes. His reaction probably indicated some connection between that incident and the three major tribes. If that was the case, it was too dangerous to stay here. They needed to be fully prepared before seeking revenge.

Tai Lie glanced at him, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart.

“Okay,” Tai Lie said in a deep voice.

When they returned with Shan Pu after exchanging their items, the group returned to the wooden hut, packed up the obsidian wood, and prepared to leave.

As Lu Yu was considering what to do with the shed when they left, Mao Pu suddenly chuckled, “If you don’t mind, I can take care of the hut for you.”

Lu Yu asked, “You’re not coming back with us?”

Mao Pu looked hopeful, “To be honest with you, the Great Drift is coming in about ten days, and I’ve never seen it before. I just want to join in the excitement.”

Lu Yu thought about it and agreed, “Alright, you can stay here.”

Mao Pu continued, “When you go back, could you ask the warriors from my tribe to bring some food and fur?”

“No problem.”

Finally, Lu Yu and the Matai set off on their journey home.

Lu Yu was eager to return and see how Xia Cao and the others were doing, upgrade their fortress, and start using the training grounds.

“What are you thinking about?” Tai Lie approached.

Lu Yu turned to look at him, feeling helpless in his heart. Well, he still needed to deal with this person’s relationship issues quickly.

Because he realized that Tai Lie hadn’t figured it out at all!
