Crossing To The Primitive With A Game Panel

Er Dai spoke intermittently, “That place was a very nice and large wooden house. I saw a person, a man… sitting… no, no, lying on a bench covered with white fur…”

Lu Yu asked, “Do you remember what that person looked like?”

Er Dai bit his lip, trying hard to remember, but couldn’t pull out the person’s appearance from those vague memory fragments, and shook his head in frustration.

Lu Yu encouraged him, “It’s okay, keep going.”

Lu Yu thought that Er Dai remembered the white fur on the bed, but couldn’t recall the person’s appearance. It was very likely that he subconsciously didn’t want to remember, perhaps that person had done something bad…

Er Dai calmed his breath a bit and continued, “Actually, I really can’t remember what happened next. It seems like that man stood up and looked at each of us…” At this point, Er Dai couldn’t help but shiver involuntarily.

On such a hot day, somehow he felt a bone-chilling cold, it was the man’s gaze and aura that brought it.

Lu Yu handed him a cup of warm goat’s milk, “Have some, don’t be afraid, we’re all here.”

Er Dai took the goat’s milk and glanced quickly at Le Shui, who was silently standing in the corner.

Le Shui’s eyes flickered.

Er Dai hastily withdrew his gaze and drank some goat’s milk.

Maybe it was because of the goat’s milk.

Soon he felt a little warmer, and the uneasy emotions in his heart dissipated a lot.

Sometimes it’s like this, when you’re trying to find something in the house, you can’t find it no matter how hard you try, but when you stop looking, it pops up by itself.

Something flashed through Er Dai’s mind, and his eyes widened suddenly as he exclaimed, “I remember! It’s soup… no no no, it’s medicine!”

Lu Yu asked, “What kind of medicine?!”

Er Dai swallowed hard, tightly gripping the bamboo jar, tilted his head, and pondered, “That man forced us to drink it. I don’t know what kind of medicine it was, it tasted awful, and had a strange color, red, black…”

Lu Yu asked, “Did that man mention what the medicine was for?”

“Um…” Er Dai fell into long thought.

In the end, he shook his head, “That man seemed to say that the medicine was very beneficial for us, but his expression…” Er Dai exclaimed, “That man was an old man! Yes! Although his hair and eyebrows were black, his face had many wrinkles! He was very old!”

Lu Yu pondered.

Er Dai couldn’t wait to say everything he remembered, “He looked strange when he spoke, so at the time, I didn’t want to drink the medicine, but he made someone force me to drink it… and then I felt very painful, very uncomfortable…”

At this point, Er Dai felt the chill come over him again, not from the man, but from the bowl of medicine, that terrifying bowl of medicine.

Er Dai was about to drink goat’s milk when he saw a tall figure walking towards him from the corner of his eye.

Le Shui stood silently behind Er Dai.

Like a silent but powerful guardian deity.

Er Dai suddenly felt that he didn’t need to drink goat’s milk anymore.

Lu Yu took out a soft grass leaf, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and smiled, “Er Dai, you did great, and you’re stronger than anyone else.”

Er Dai was confused, “Me? Strong?”

Lu Yu affirmed, “Yes, you, you’re very strong. If you can’t think of anything else, just rest for a while, okay?”

Er Dai thought about it and indeed couldn’t think of anything else. Moreover, through the flash of insight just now, he felt that by emptying his mind, he might remember more things, so he nodded.

Lu Yu paused for a moment, then continued, “Er Dai, how about you rest here, stay in my room, and I’ll accompany you—”

“No, no need!” Er Dai quickly waved his hand.

Although Lu Yu’s room was arranged very warmly and comfortably, and Er Dai liked it very much, but he felt that if he slept here, he would be very nervous and wouldn’t be able to think of anything.

“Come to my place.” A faint voice came from behind.

Er Dai and Lu Yu turned their heads at the same time, blinking in unison.

Er Dai already had big eyes, and Lu Yu’s eyes were also very bright. With four eyes between the two of them, it was like four big flashlights shining on Le Shui.

Le Shui asked casually, “What do you think, Witch?”

Lu Yu replied, “I don’t have any objections, but it’s best if someone accompanies Er Dai… in case he remembers something again, it’s good to have someone there to jot it down, so his memories don’t fade away.”

Le Shui said calmly, “I can switch shifts with Shan Pu, and I arranged the hunting team’s tasks yesterday.”

He thought it through very considerately, and Lu Yu didn’t hesitate anymore. The key was that he saw a child who had just refused him without any hesitation, now looking embarrassed and lowering his head, showing no signs of unwillingness…

Lu Yu couldn’t help but wonder if he had missed something.

Did he think that Er Dai was very afraid of Le Shui? Was Le Shui just fulfilling a task?

After sending the two out, watching their backs, Lu Yu was still thinking about this question.

After thinking for a while, he slapped his forehead, realizing, “Oh! Le Shui seemed to have a younger brother before, who later went missing in that frequent war… so Le Shui must treat Er Dai as his little brother! Well, that’s good too…”

Although Lu Yu himself had gotten involved with a certain big man, he was still quite clueless about others, thinking that everyone should be paired up as men and women…

Putting this matter aside, Lu Yu went back to his room to discuss the information Er Dai had just mentioned with Tai Lie.

Lu Yu had mentioned to Tai Lie last night that Er Dai seemed very afraid of him, so today Tai Lie was present, but basically acted like a invisible person, not speaking or making any unnecessary movements.

Chef Lu’s bedside manner was very powerful.

Lu Yu asked, “What do you think?”

Tai Lie replied, “Er Dai is not a spy.”

Lu Yu rolled his eyes very rudely, “I didn’t need you to tell me that!”

He had never believed that Er Dai was a spy, and now he was completely sure it wasn’t possible, there couldn’t be so much drama with spies.

Lu Yu pondered for a moment, “Actually, I have an idea, many things are uncertain, but I’m fifty percent sure. If it turns out to be what I think… ”

Lu Yu looked up worriedly at Tai Lie, “Then maybe we can find the answer to the Matai incident ten years ago.”

Tai Lie suddenly raised his eyelids.

Lu Yu walked over, sat next to him, held his big hand resting on the wooden table, leaned closer, and said seriously, “I’m thinking if this matter could be…”

—

The weather was very good today. Lu Yu went to the back of the house to check the meat he had dried earlier.

This meat had been looked after by someone in his village during the time he was away. When the weather was dry and sunny, they would take it out to dry.

After various processes, the outer layer had become hard and formed a natural protective layer, so it could be stored for a long time. When you wanted to eat it, you just had to cut it open.

For the development of a race, Lu Yu didn’t understand it deeply, but he knew that hoarding food was definitely the most important.

After storing the meat, Shan Pu came to call him, “Witch! Are you ready?”

Lu Yu smiled, “Yes, I’m coming.”

Originally, his plan was to accompany Er Dai today, but since Le Shui replaced his work, Lu Yu decided to go out with the hunting team instead. This time, they would bring back a lot of seeds, and he really needed growth potions now.

They first went to the small river where they caught crocodiles before.

Lu Yu especially admired this aspect of primitive people; they could remember the way wherever they went, like having built-in navigation systems.

Last time they came, they didn’t catch all the crocodiles in the river, but it was good that the remaining crocodiles hadn’t moved. Of course, it was impossible to refill the river in such a short time.

The process of catching crocodiles was very easy.

Lu Yu also went into the river to help, of course, with Tai Lie guarding by the side the whole time. After leaving the city, Tai Lie stared at him without blinking.

Lu Yu felt a bit embarrassed but didn’t object. Others might think that being watched like this restricted his freedom, but Lu Yu felt quite secure.

Ten crocodiles, big and small, dropped two Growth Potions to save face.

Lu Yu frowned as he held the small glass bottle, “It’s a bit too little.”

Shan Pu shook the water off his grass cloak, “Witch, there really isn’t even one left. I’ve turned over all the mud at the bottom of the river.”

Lu Yu said, “Let’s go downstream along this river and take a look.”

These crocodiles liked to stay in places with muddy water, so there might be bigger ones downstream.

After walking along the river for half a day, they didn’t find anything. Ming Shan’s sense of smell could only detect the scent of uncovered animals; his ability was greatly reduced for animals living underwater.

“Forget it, let’s stop looking,” Lu Yu called a halt.

Let’s just use the navigation function.

After that incident, Lu Yu hadn’t used the navigation function. One reason was that he didn’t need it temporarily, and the other was that he had some mental hang-ups. After all, the navigation function was closely related to Cha Zhe.

But now that he and Cha Zhe had settled their differences, and since there was a need for it, it would be silly not to use his “golden finger”.

Lu Yu opened the game panel and selected the navigation function. A line of text popped up on the panel.

【Navigation function upgraded】

Upgraded…

Lu Yu remained silent for a moment, trying hard not to show any unusual expressions, as the upgrade of the function was likely the reason for Cha Zhe forcing that kiss on him. And Lu Yu hadn’t told Tai Lie about this matter. If he did, Cha Zhe might really not survive…

Lu Yu scratched his chin and looked somewhat serious as he examined the upgraded navigation function.

【Designated item search】

【90 days/once】

【Attempts are not cumulative; each successful/failure consumes one chance】

Lu Yu’s eyes lit up.

Designated item search!!

This was great, he needed this right now!

Although the interval was very long, it was definitely powerful.

A large hand reached over and gently touched Lu Yu’s face.

“Why so happy?” the man said casually.

Lu Yu grinned, “Because something good finally happened.”

The matter they had discussed in secret that morning weighed heavily on his heart, and although he didn’t show it on his face, he felt very heavy inside.

A hint of bloodthirst flashed in Tai Lie’s eyes, but his expression remained calm.

“I won’t let you get hurt again.”

“Me neither,” Lu Yu replied, feeling a bit flushed on his face, and suddenly turned his head.

“Well, let me find the way…”

Just as Lu Yu was about to input the Growth Potion, he suddenly remembered that there was something else that seemed more urgent than the Growth Potion…
