I am a Primitive Man

Chapter 303: Return

Han Cheng couldn't help but secretly rejoice at the sight of Milk Tea Girl's appearance.

With the lofty ideal of making little undergarments for his wife, Han Cheng found some thatch and rope and erected a silkworm mountain.

After it was done, he placed the silkworm mountain in the pottery basin to raise silkworms.

After a while, the silkworms began to climb onto the silkworm mountain.

After climbing onto the silkworm mountain, they used the last pair of legs at the back of their bodies to hold onto the stem of the thatch and began to shake their heads.

They couldn't stop shaking their heads as if they were taking ecstasy.

In the afternoon, some silkworms couldn't hold it anymore, and silk began to come out of their mouths.

Watching the silkworms cocoon themselves round and round with silk from their mouths, Han Cheng intuitively understood the idiom "making a cocoon for oneself."

By evening, all the silkworms had begun to spin silk.

For this change, Milk Tea Girl and others like Xing, Xiaomei, and Xiaoli were very surprised and delighted.

In this emotional state, Milk Tea Girl began to worry again that the silkworms inside would feel suffocated.

Han Cheng explained the life cycle of silkworms to them.

While speaking, Han Cheng occasionally glanced at the gate, hoping the Eldest Senior Brother and the others would return.

The anxiety in his heart was inevitable, fearing that they might encounter some accident.

Between the Green Sparrow Tribe and the Bone Tribe, seventy to eighty people were slowly walking toward the Green Sparrow Tribe.

These were the people from the Green Sparrow Tribe, including the captives from the Bone Tribe.

Because each of the four people had their left and right legs bound together with two sticks, they didn't walk very quickly.

But even so, the Eldest Senior Brother refused to untie the sticks on their feet.

Compared to the anxiousness when they were first captured, the people from the Bone Tribe seemed much calmer now, with a numbness in their calmness.

"Need to relieve myself."

As they walked, someone from the Bone Tribe called out.

Said in Mandarin, which was taught to them by the Eldest Senior Brother's group.

Initially, the Eldest Senior Brother and the others didn't understand why this matter was called "relieving oneself," but now they understood it too well.

After the person from the Bone Tribe called out like this, two Green Sparrow Tribe members holding weapons came over and stopped the group.

They untied the rope from the person who requested to relieve themselves and allowed them to do so.

While relieving themselves, two people with spears closely watched them.

After this person was relieved, his legs were tied again, and the stopped group resumed their journey.

Today was already the sixth day, and the Eldest Senior Brother and the others hadn't returned yet, which made the people who stayed behind very anxious because, according to the previous estimation, they should have returned yesterday.

Han Cheng was also unsure, praying silently that nothing terrible would happen.

"They're back, they're back!"

Standing on the wall, Liang spotted something, rubbed his eyes, looked again, and shouted with excitement.

The entire Green Sparrow Tribe instantly erupted with joy, including the two Bone Tribe women who had been captured before and had mostly recovered from their injuries.

Han Cheng quickly climbed up the wall, stood on his toes, and saw a long line of people coming from the direction of the small river. Leading them was the Eldest Senior Brother carrying a rattan shield.

Seeing this, the big stone in Han Cheng's heart finally fell, but then he felt a sinking feeling.

In war, casualties were inevitable because there were too many unexpected factors on the battlefield. Even though the Green Sparrow Tribe had advantages in all aspects, it wouldn't be surprising if a few casualties occurred.

"It's best if nobody dies, but if there are deaths, there should be as few as possible."

Elder Senior Brother, Shang, Second Elder Brother, Zhuang, Tu Bagu, Sand Junior Brother.

Han Cheng stood on the wall, watching the arriving people from afar, silently reciting their names in his heart.

One, two, thirty-two.

Han Cheng skipped the captured people and silently counted the returning ones in his heart.

Twenty-nine, how come one is missing?

Han Cheng's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

Suppressing the negative thoughts, he hurriedly counted again, but the result became twenty-eight.

Han Cheng's heart sank, and he counted for the third time, reaching thirty-one.

Han Cheng shook his head wryly. It seemed he wasn't very good at arithmetic, even getting confused when counting people.

He counted for the fourth time.

As he counted back and forth, the elder senior brother and the others gradually arrived at the tribe.

When they got closer, everything added up, and after confirming that all thirty people who had gone out had returned without any missing, Han Cheng jumped up with joy.

Only then did he have the time to deal with the numerous Bone Tribe captives.

Forty-eight.

Wow, this is a big harvest!

After counting the number of captives, Han Cheng was also surprised.

This was nine more than the largest number he had anticipated.

With joy in his heart, Han Cheng climbed down from the wall and went to the gate, inspecting each of the thirty people who had returned one by one. After finding nothing major other than fatigue, he finally relaxed and began to inquire about the course of the battle.

Elder Senior Brother was very excited about the results of the battle and happily recounted them to Han Cheng. The others added a few words from the side, and the people who stayed behind in the tribe couldn't help but marvel at what they heard.

Han Cheng hadn't expected that the methods he had taught Elder Senior Brother would be so effective, and he laughed along with them.

While they were happy, the Bone Tribe captives who had been brought back were filled with fear and anxiety, not knowing what awaited them.

As they thought about these things, many Bone Tribe people couldn't help but look to the east, knowing that there were many people who had been burned after the failed attack on their tribe.

Maybe the people from their tribe who died a few days ago were also burned there.

"Let's go in."

After confirming that everything was stable, Han Cheng told Elder Senior Brother and the others, who were covered in dirt and looked extremely uneasy.

Elder Senior Brother and the others led these people and began to walk towards the open gates of the tribe.

The Bone Tribe leader, with many wounds on his body, looked up at the tall walls and the open gates, his face showing a nearly tearful expression.

He had finally entered the tribe he wanted to enter, but unfortunately, it was far from what he had imagined.

As these anxious people were led into the Green Sparrow Tribe, the gate was closed behind them. Han Cheng ordered people to prepare ingredients.

Today, they would have a hearty feast to welcome back Elder Senior Brother and the others and celebrate their victory.

The people who received the order went off cheerfully, and the returning warriors from the Elder Senior Brother's group were also very happy.

They always had great enthusiasm for eating.

Han Cheng also ordered people to feed water to the Bone Tribe captives who were tied up there.

"Shenzi."

After things stabilized somewhat, Elder Senior Brother found the shaman and came to Han Cheng to express his concerns.

Seeing the number of Bone Tribe captives returning, the shaman also felt the same concerns rise within him.
