I am a Primitive Man

Chapter 286

Are the people of this tribe foolish?

To start an attack from such a distance?

This isn't just the idea of the Bone Tribe leader; it's the thought of all the Bone Tribe people.

Even the best throwers in the tribe can't reach such a distance.

However, what happened next wholly dispelled the thoughts that had just arisen in their minds.

"Thud!"

"Ah!"

The Bone Tribe leader was about to open his mouth to urge the tribe members to run faster to the wall and set up the ladders to climb up quicker.

But before the words could come out, a swiftly hurled stone smashed into his skull!

In just one blow, his head was smashed open, blood splattering everywhere. The words he was about to shout turned into a painful scream.

Before the scream could finish, he fell to the ground with a thud, rolling in agony while clutching his head.

Even the second senior brother on the wall was stunned. Although his slingshot was accurate, he never expected to knock down the leader of the Bone Tribe in one shot!

The people of the Bone Tribe hadn't even had time to cry out before more stones and arrows flew towards them, immediately hitting several people.

"Plop!"

One person carrying a ladder was shot in the leg by an arrow, causing him to collapse along with the ladder.

"Ah!"

Another person running was hit in the stomach by a stone, crying out in pain as they fell to their knees.

Most of the Green Sparrow Tribe recognized the leader of the Bone Tribe. Seeing him knocked down by a stone from the second senior brother boosted their morale, and they threw stones and shot arrows even faster!

Stones and arrows flew towards the Bone Tribe as if they cost nothing.

The people of the Bone Tribe were stunned by this sudden and utterly unexpected attack.

In their expectations, they thought they would have to run a considerable distance before the attack from this tribe would come.

But now, the attack came just like this!

And the power was surprisingly great. Not to mention the stones, even the sticks as thick as fingers, were so powerful?

"Attack!"

The Bone Tribe's assault only lasted a short moment before it fell apart.

Without needing the blood-covered leader of the Bone Tribe to order them, those who had been terrified by the attack turned and ran for their lives.

They didn't care about the uneaten food or the precious pottery they had longed for.

The blood-covered leader of the Bone Tribe also stumbled as he ran desperately.

He felt utterly dazed, the world before him turning into a blood-red scene.

"Attack!"

On the walls, the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe shouted, using stones and arrows to greet the fleeing tribe.

Two unlucky ones were left behind.

Watching the Bone Tribe people run away in panic like a scattered herd of deer, the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe felt unsatisfied.

They had prepared and waited for so long that they finally encountered enemies daring to attack the Green Sparrow Tribe. But before they could fight, the enemies ran away. It was truly frustrating.

Among them, the second senior brother felt the most remorse.

He deeply regretted not waiting for the Bone Tribe people to come closer before attacking.

If they had waited and then attacked, they could have left behind more people who dared to invade the tribe.

Those injured and unable to escape in time were unlucky in such a mood.

Lying there motionless was fine, but as soon as any attempt to escape was made, stones and feathered arrows would immediately come whistling through the air...

The leader of the Bone Tribe felt his head throbbing as if it were about to split open. He leaned against a tree and looked at the blood-red walls in the distance.

The walls stood silently as always, seemingly harmless to humans and animals alike.

However...

He slowly turned his neck to look at the people around him, all wearing anxious expressions.

These people had all turned into bloody figures, many of them bearing wounds.

The leader of the Bone Tribe shook his head in disbelief, wiping his eyes with his hand to dispel the bloody vision.

But the apparent reality was more cruel.

Many of the people who had followed him were now missing.

Thinking back on everything that had just happened, it all felt like a dream.

Yet, this dream was all too real.

His mind was no longer filled with desires for possessions or riches but rather with the sight of small stones and sticks flying towards him.

How could this be happening?

Their leader was absent, and far fewer people were standing on the walls than before...

The leader of the disheartened Bone Tribe, accompanied by his equally disheartened people, left that place they no longer wished to stay in as if in a dream, heading towards their tribe.

Even the group of deer grazing not far away, when encountered on the road, didn't stir any desire to hunt...

Skipping forward a significant amount of time, back to the second day of Han Cheng and his companions' journey downstream.

In the forest not too far from the river, the leader of the Sheep Tribe was leading most of the adults from the tribe in search of prey.

The mood of the Sheep Tribe's leader was good because last winter, their tribe hadn't suffered any losses due to illness, and their population had even grown compared to previous years.

With the weather getting warmer daily, food was easier to find now. Although it couldn't compare to the abundance of autumn, the threat of starvation was no longer imminent.

It was in such a mood that someone suddenly cried out in amazement, pointing to the river not too far away.

The leader of the Sheep Tribe followed the sound and saw several large objects floating on the river.

This sight, never seen before, startled him and some of the people from the Sheep Tribe.

They immediately hid behind trees with their weapons, peeking cautiously to observe the large, moving creatures floating down the river.

After watching for a while, the leader of the Sheep Tribe rubbed his eyes, shook his head, and continued to watch.

He watched as the giant creatures floating on the water slowly drifted away.

He blinked, and the rest of the Sheep Tribe blinked, too.

How could people from that tribe be floating on the water?

Where were all these people going with so many of them?

Although he couldn't see the faces of the people on the creatures due to the distance, he could recognize from their peculiar animal skin patterns that those floating on the water were indeed from the wealthy tribe.

After some hesitation, the leader of the Sheep Tribe wanted to go and ask, but the path along the riverbank was not easy to traverse, so he gave up.

In the days that followed, the leader of the Sheep Tribe would occasionally recall the scene of that tribe floating downstream.

Unintentionally, the hunting grounds were all near the river.

He wanted to see those people return to the surface of the water, but even after several days of hunting near the river, they never appeared.
