Crossing To The Primitive With A Game Panel

Chapter 12 - Taking A Bath Part 1



As the sun gradually set, the aroma of roasted meat that wafted through the Matai village dissipated bit by bit.

After finishing their dinner, the Matai people dispersed in twos and threes. Since there were no entertainment activities at night and they could go out hunting, some people went back to their houses directly to rest, while others remained around catching some rabbits.

Of course, they now had another task at hand, which was to collect stones and soil to pile up and hand over to the witch, hoping that one day he would make their village more better.

Tai Lie lifted some trees he had cut during the day and placed them by his feet. Following the requirements, he chopped them into sections. Knowing Lu Yu’s habit of burying tree roots back into the ground, he specifically piled the roots together.

The man behind the wooden house sat firmly on a stone pedestal, his wheat-colored skin gleaming. Every muscle on his body was perfect, with smooth lines that were not overly exaggerated, covered with a thin layer of sweat.

His expressionless yet sharply defined handsome face showed no extra emotions, only mechanically and precisely performing the task at hand.

After chopping down the twelfth tree, he was about to take down another one when he was suddenly interrupted by a voice.

“King, are you busy right now…”

Tai Lie raised his head and saw Lu Yu standing not far away.

Although it was getting dark, casting everything in shadows, his skin was glowing white, especially eye-catching.

Noticing the two other tribesmen chopping trees around him, Tai Lie subconsciously furrowed his brows but quickly returned to his emotionless state.

He discreetly withdrew his hand about to take the tree and said calmly, “Not busy.”

Lu Yu glanced around, looking somewhat awkward, “Um, can you come over for a moment? I want to tell you something.”

Tai Lie didn’t say anything, but stood up and walked over to him.

Lu Yu led him to a secluded spot with no one around.

“Um, King, I found a mountain spring. The water is very clean and cool. I was wondering if you’d like to go soak in it…” Lu Yu stuttered.

Tai Lie felt like he didn’t quite hear clearly, “What did you say?”

After a moment’s hesitation, seemingly making up his mind, Lu Yu said loudly, “King, let’s go take a bath together!”

Although Tai Lie had bathed in the river with his tribesmen before, for some reason, when this person said he wanted to bathe with him, he felt a strange and inexplicable feeling of uncertainty.

After a moment of silence, he nodded.

“Then let’s go now!” Lu Yu’s mouth curled up happily, patting his chest, “King, don’t worry, I’ve brought everything we need for bathing.”

Tai Lie didn’t know what else was needed for bathing, but he didn’t say anything more.

Under the tranquil moonlight, a mountain spring flowed down over uneven rocks, gathering into a small clear pool.

Lu Yu, fearing that he might lose his storage ring while bathing, took off his beast skin skirt and found a safe place to press it down with stones.

“King, I’m going down first.” After announcing, he jumped naked into the water.

Although feeling a bit embarrassed, he comforted himself with the thought that he’s just in a bathhouse like the bathhouses before in the modern world, so it wasn’t a big deal.

After all, they were all men.

Some good buddies even compared the sizes of their birds together.

What’s there to be ashamed of?

Lu Yu reassured himself in his mind.

Since the moment Tai Lie was about to undress, he had lowered his gaze. Seeing Lu Yu leaning against the rocks, already enjoying himself with his eyes closed, Tai Lie walked to the other side, untied his beast skin skirt, and slowly stepped into the pool.

Lu Yu secretly opened his eyes a little, peeking under the moonlight.

…This must be due to genetic differences!

In this era without underwear, growing up like this, he’s not afraid of shaking when running!

Lu Yu internally ridiculed, but when he raised his head and saw Tai Lie looking towards him, his heart skipped a beat.

He quickly found a topic, “Refreshing, isn’t it?”

Tai Lie glanced at his dripping upper body, closed his eyes, and responded nonchalantly.

Actually, he didn’t feel refreshed at all.

The spring water didn’t lower his body temperature at all; instead, it seemed to intensify it.

Seeing his somewhat indifferent reaction, Lu Yu thought that maybe he didn’t really like bathing, so he didn’t speak anymore.

He opened the game panel and was pleasantly surprised to find that the favorability progress bar was slowly increasing.

Bathing is great!

After bathing for a while, Lu Yu splashed water over himself, rubbed his body, and was about to move when he suddenly remembered that he forgot to bring his bathing equipment.

The so-called bathing equipment was actually a kind of loofah-like plant he found to make a bath towel, and another kind of bath bean that could cleanse the body, which he crushed and used as bath salts.
