Stone Age Husband Raising Journal

Chapter 173.2 Parallel World (5)

The ingredients had indeed been delivered. Cleaned fish and meat had been placed in the kitchen.

These ingredients had originally been meant for Zhou Ji so naturally were the best quality ingredients. This was especially the case for the fish because Zhou Ji liked fresh fish that had only just been freshly killed.

“I didn’t think that there would be fish! It just so happens that I brought some pickled vegetables with me. I’ll make you pickled vegetable fish.” Zhou Ji said.

Xiong Ye had never heard of pickled vegetable fish, but he agreed anyway.

Zhou Ji made a full pot of pickled vegetable fish, then stir-fried the meat with the oil he’d brought. He also fried broccoli with garlic puree, then made several vegetable dishes.

As for the staple food, Zhou Ji made rice. When boiling the rice, he added a steam rack on top and prepared a bowl of steamed eggs.

Five full dishes were placed on the table, and Xiong Ye was stunned by the sight, “Why did you make so many dishes?”

“I have to show you what I can do if I want to stay in the Big Bear Tribe.” Zhou Ji laughed and said, “In fact, the reason why I can live so well in the Beast God Temple after my father’s death is somewhat related to my cooking.”

“The food you cook is so delicious. Are they really willing to let you go?” Xiong Ye couldn’t help but ask. He felt that if he was the High Priest, he would never let such a good cook go.

“They’ve already learned it.” Zhou Ji laughed, “It’s not hard to learn these things.”

So it turned out to be like that. Xiong Ye didn’t ask any further and started to eat.

Someone came over while the two of them were eating. “Bear Beast King, we heard that you moved here and came for a visit.”

The two old Beast Kings came in following the sound of their voices.

Because houses here had no windows, or the windows were usually all very small, people of this era generally left the door open for light during the day.

Not only that, the houses built during this era were often all built facing south so that every room could have daylight streaming in.

When Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji were eating, they left the main door open. When the two Beast Kings came in, they saw Zhou Ji immediately.

Their footsteps paused.

They had already known about the fact that Zhou Ji wanted to follow Xiong Ye, and had already spent a night accepting the fact. However, they still felt a little shocked when they saw it personally.

But these two Beast Kings were old and experienced. They didn’t lose their composure and instead, they asked, “Who is this?”

Xiong Ye stood up to greet them. Hearing them ask about Zhou Ji, he replied, “This is my friend Zhou Ji.” He even introduced Zhou Ji to the two Beast Kings.

The two old Beast Kings: “......” It was already a big deal that he addressed the Beast God by name, but he even called him his friend...

Of course, what shocked them even more was that the Beast God actually smiled at them, “Good morning, Ape Beast King, Ox Beast King!”

Out of these two Beast Kings, one of them had a great ape animal form, and the other’s animal form was an ox.

The Ape Beast King was a man while the Ox Beast King was a woman. Both of them were about the same age, and their faces were covered with wrinkles.

Now, the wrinkles on their faces crowded together even more. Their smiles were slightly stiff on their faces, “Good morning to you too.”

Zhou Ji stopped talking. The two Beast Kings remembered that he wanted to keep things secret and didn’t dare to speak with him more. They even started to worry that they might have offended him by rashly coming over.

Finally, the Ape Beast King spoke up, “Bear Beast King, I didn’t think that you would be so good at cooking!” Could it be that His Majesty the Beast God wanted to follow the Bear Beast King because of his cooking?

“I didn’t make this, Zhou Ji did.” Xiong Ye said. “Would you like to join us?”

These dishes had actually been made by His Majesty the Beast God? The two Beast Kings were stunned and couldn’t wait to sit down and have a taste. However, they were afraid that Zhou Ji would be unhappy and could only look towards Zhou Ji while saying, “How could we do that?”

“It’s alright. You can have some, too.” Xiong Ye stood up and served food to the two Beast Kings.

He wasn’t like Shi Li who liked to make friends all the time, but he was willing to build a good relationship with the other Beast Kings. This was especially the case since he and Shi Li were going to split up.

Zhou Ji knew what Xiong Ye was thinking and supported him doing this, so he naturally had no objections.

The Zhou Ji in his dream had only cooked for Xiong Ye because he liked Xiong Ye, but he himself was different.

In any case, he’d already made the food. Letting others have a taste didn’t matter.

After Zhou Ji came to the Beast God Temple, the people of the Beast God Temple had begun to use chopsticks. The two Beast King’s skill with chopsticks was very good.

The Ox Beast King liked to eat all kinds of plants. She’d never seen broccoli before, so she was very surprised by the taste when she used chopsticks to take a bite.

This type of plant that she’d never eaten before tasted extremely good!

The Ox Beast King began to try the other dishes.

As for the Ape Beast King, he first tried a bite of a meat dish.

Zhou Ji had added cumin to this stir-fried meat dish.

He’d given the Beast God Temple many plant seeds and taught them many farming methods, but he hadn’t let the people of the Beast God Temple plant this kind of seasoning. He felt that the development level of the current Beastman Continent wasn’t far enough along for them to start pursuing delicious food.

Of course, he could still use it for himself.

Therefore, the Ape Beast King and Ox Beast King were able to eat many things that they had never eaten before.

The two Beast Kings wanted to immerse themselves in eating.

Eating the food made by the Beast God would definitely bring them blessings!

However, it just so happened that... the Beast God’s food hadn’t been made for them. They didn’t dare to eat too much.

Ultimately, the two Beast Kings only ate a single bowl of rice and very little of the dishes. They had tears in their eyes, but they stopped eating.

Xiong Ye felt that he had really seen too little of the world when he saw them like this.

Zhou Ji’s food was so delicious that he couldn’t stop eating, but these two Beast Kings only ate such a small amount of food. Could it be that they ate this kind of food all the time?

Xiong Ye chatted with the two Beast Kings as he ate. He then discovered that the two Beast Kings had a very good attitude towards him.

At first, he’d found it a little strange, but after considering it carefully, he felt that it was normal.

If he reached the age of these two Beast Kings, he would also be very friendly to the younger Beast Kings so that the younger Beast Kings wouldn’t harm their tribes after their deaths.

Both sides talked for a long time and finished the food. At this time, Zhou Ji took the initiative to stand up and said, “I’ll clean up.”

How could the Ape Beast King and Ox Beast King dare to have the Beast God clean up? Just as they wanted to say something about it, they saw Zhou Ji gesture for them to leave.

The Ape Beast King and Ox Beast King didn’t dare to delay and immediately said their goodbyes.

Xiong Ye didn’t doubt them and sent the two Beast Kings off.

After both parties exchanged farewells, they separated. The Ox Beast King and Ape Beast King hadn’t taken more than a few steps when they saw Zhou Ji appear in front of them.

The two of them knelt down at once.

Zhou Ji said, “You guys should come over less in the future. You should tell the others to come over less as well.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” The two Beast Kings agreed and then discovered that the Beast God had already left.

Could it be that their Beast God had gone back to wash the dishes?

The Ape Beast King and Ox Beast King looked at each other. They didn’t dare to believe it, and then they became extremely excited–they’d eaten food made by the Beast God!

Not only that, they were the only ones who’d done so... The Beast God had told them to come less, and others would also go less, so they definitely wouldn’t have the opportunity to eat the Beast God’s cooking!

It was just... why was the Beast God so good to Xiong Ye? That Xiong Ye didn’t seem like anything special to them...

While the two Beast Kings were still puzzled, Xiong Ye was planning to bring Zhou Ji back with him to the Big Bear Tribe for a visit.

He and Shi Li had already decided to separate. Although he felt a little ashamed of it and didn’t want to tell other people, it still had to be said.

Additionally, Zhou Ji wanted to return, and he should let the people of the tribe get to know him.

On the way back to the Big Bear Tribe, Xiong Ye said to Zhou Ji, “We’ve been wandering for many years. Eleven years ago, after I became a high level Beast Warrior, we finally settled down. Now, the Big Bear Tribe has eighty nine people.”

Only eighty nine people... the Big Bear Tribe was really a small tribe.

However, it was a very powerful tribe. After all, this tribe had two Beast Kings.

Because it had two Beast Kings, the people of the Big Bear Tribe had a very spacious territory to set up camp in, and there were even people from other tribes who had helped them build houses as they didn’t really know how to do so.

When Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji went over, they saw that there were many people staying in the place where the Big Bear Tribe had settled in. They were talking and making friends with the people of the Big Bear Tribe.

When they saw Xiong Ye coming over, they all went over to greet him.

Zhou Ji stood behind him and reduced his presence. After that, he discovered that there were a few old priests from the Beast God Temple who recognized him and were sending hidden glances his way from the shadows.

Zhou Ji: “......”

Xiong Ye said a few simple words, then went to the house that the Big Bear Tribe had left empty for him and Shi Li. He then called in Hu Yue and a young man called Xiong An.

“Xiong Ye, why are you looking for us?” Hu Yue asked.

“There’s something to tell you.” Xiong Ye said. He paused, then introduced Zhou Ji. “This is Zhou Ji. Hu Yue, do you remember him?”

Xiong An was born after the disaster struck the Big Bear Tribe and definitely wouldn’t recognize Zhou Ji, but Hu Yue should still remember him.

“Zhou Ji?” Hu Yue was somewhat surprised as she looked at Zhou Ji. After a moment of recollection, her gaze turned softer, “Long time no see.”

“Zhou Ji will join the Big Bear Tribe in the future. When the time comes, take care of him a bit.” Xiong Ye said.

Hu Yue and Xiong An immediately agreed, “Alright.”

Xiong Ye started to speak again, then hesitated.

Hu Yue saw that Xiong Ye wanted to say something else and prompted, “Did you encounter some trouble?”

“It’s not trouble... Hu Yue, I’m going to separate and stop being mates with Shi Li.” Xiong Ye said.

Hu Yue’s expression changed suddenly, and her face, which was covered in scars, appeared particularly fierce, “Did he do something?”

“No.” Xiong Ye said. Shi Li hadn’t done anything that couldn’t be tolerated as of yet, “We just don’t have feelings for each other anymore.”

“What do you mean, no feelings? After he relied on you to get stronger...” Hu Yue wanted to say that after Shi Li had become stronger by relying on Xiong Ye and started feeling that Xiong Ye was no longer of any use to him, he’d decided to kick him away. However, she soon realized that if she really said that, Xiong Ye might be upset and eventually refrained from saying it out loud.

Xiong Ye continued, “No matter what, we’ll be separating during the Beast God Sacrifice... You can tell the people of the tribe about this later. When the time comes, the people who want to follow him can go with him, and the people who want to follow me can come with me.”

Xiong Ye didn’t want the Big Bear Tribe to split up, but he couldn’t just let Shi Li take all the people of the Big Bear Tribe... After all, this was the tribe that he’d fought so hard half his life for.

He could only let people choose.

“Xiong Ye, don’t worry. Other than Shi Li’s younger brother, we’ll definitely all follow you!” Hu Yue immediately replied, “I’m going to go and drive Shi Li’s younger brother out now!”

Hu Yue went to do as she said and immediately headed outside.
