Chapter 63

Zhou Lang said, “I guess you’ve already guessed. The main thing is that I want you to make a few more dishes, like the ones you made yesterday. Not barbecue, but wild vegetable dishes. Of course, you can rest assured that we will give you a lot of rewards.”

Coming to find him after eating his food, it must be something like this.

Lu Yu remained calm and casually brought up another matter, “By the way, yesterday the stone bowl I used to serve food was taken by you, right? The fur you gave me was only meant to be exchanged for food, not including the bowl. Your behavior isn’t good, it’s like stealing.”

Zhou Lang grinned, knowing that Lu Yu was indirectly bringing up the matter of him being called a liar and a thief before. But he did take something that didn’t belong to him. He waved his hand impatiently and said, “It’s just a stone bowl. I’ll bring you ten of them later. Tell me if you agree to what I just mentioned.”

Lu Yu smiled faintly, “I don’t agree.”

Zhou Lang was furious, “You!”

Lu Yu calmly said, “Young Chief Zhou Lang, as you can see, I’m busy all day and can’t spare time to help you make food. Haven’t you eaten a lot of delicious food before? Go find someone else.”

After the insults Zhou Lang hurled at him yesterday, Lu Yu wasn’t someone with Stockholm syndrome who would help just because asked. Besides, he didn’t like people like Zhou Lang and didn’t want to compromise himself.@@@@

Zhou Lang gritted his teeth, “If I could find someone else, would I still come to you!”

Yesterday, Zhou Lang brought back those few dishes to see if the people responsible for cooking in the tribe could replicate them. He thought those dishes were simple to make, and maybe the people in the tribe could learn. Then he could throw the cooked food in front of Lu Yu, saving face. But when he brought the dishes back, he happened to run into his father, Zhou Shan, the chief of the Dao Ma Tribe.

Zhou Shan was tall and burly, with a presence that shook the ground as he walked. Seeing Zhou Lang clenching a stone bowl and walking forward with gritted teeth, he reached out and grabbed the back of his neck, lifting him up like a rabbit. “What are you doing?”

Zhou Lang stumbled, subconsciously protecting the thing in his hand.

Zhou Shan frowned.

Stabilizing himself, Zhou Lang’s eyes lit up when he saw the newcomer. “Father, you’re back! Was everything smooth today?”

Recalling today’s events, Zhou Shan snorted coldly, “It was alright. The relationship with the three major tribes isn’t that strong. Entering the inner region is just a matter of time.”

Zhou Lang was delighted, “That’s great! Once we enter the inner region, we can talk to the witch!”

Zhou Shan looked at his happy son and sighed, “It’s not so easy to talk to the witch. But I heard that the witch went to other lands before, so this time during the Great Drift, she should come back. We’ll eventually have a chance to meet her. Anyway, let’s not talk about that. What do you have in your hand? It seems precious.”

Zhou Lang pulled his hand back slightly, feeling uncomfortable. “It’s, it’s nothing...”

Zhou Shan asked, “What food is this? Didn’t you eat enough at night? Why didn’t you let Zhou Da and the others cook barbecue for you?”

Zhou Lang forced a smile and said, “I wasn’t hungry. This food was exchanged from another tribe...”

Zhou Shan’s face darkened. “Exchanged for food? Isn’t there enough food in the tribe for you? Why do you need to go out and exchange for food? How much fur did you use to exchange?”

The question Zhou Lang least wanted to answer came up, but he knew there were many people around when he exchanged for the food. Even if he didn’t answer, Zhou Shan would soon find out. So he could only grit his teeth and say, “Six large pelts...”

Zhou Shan raised his eyebrows angrily. “Are you itching for trouble? Didn’t I tell you that we need to store a lot of supplies recently? Also, why is this food worth six large pelts? Have you lost your mind?!”

Zhou Lang was sprayed in the face with spit, trembling and dared not retort. He could only whisper, “Actually, this food is quite delicious.”

Zhou Shan looked at the stone bowl, picked up a piece of vegetable with his hand, and put it in his mouth. As time passed, his expression went from disdainful to shocked, then serious...

Zhou Lang sneakily watched, feeling a bit satisfied for some reason. So, this is what it feels like to see someone get slapped in the face...

The inner layer of Stone City...

Lu Yu paused for a moment, then slowly withdrew his hand.

Zhou Lang angrily led his men towards the door.

“Wait,” Lu Yu called out to him.

Zhou Lang turned back, his face still grim.

Lu Yu smiled kindly. “You’re right. I think we can discuss this further.”

Zhou Lang was stunned.

—

Watching the silhouette of Zhou Lang and his men leaving, Xia Cao turned her head and worriedly asked, “Lu Yu, are you really going to help them make food?”

Lu Yu replied, “Let’s discuss it first. If we can’t find any other information, we can consider it.”

Xia Cao said, “I don’t think this person is suitable to deal with.”

Lu Yu responded, “I understand what you mean. So this is just a backup plan.”

That night, Lu Yu opened the dream training ground.

When he returned to the control room after training, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the dream training ground had upgraded without him noticing.

Lu Yu was very happy.

The upgrade difficulty of the dream training ground was much easier than that of the village, mainly based on the number of training sessions and duration. When it was enough, it would automatically upgrade, which was very convenient.

Recently, whether it was the Matai people or the Valley people, they had been training diligently. Lu Yu even received feedback several times, hoping to train a little longer and not sleep so much. Some even said they could spare time for training during lunch.

They were very diligent and enthusiastic.

Lu Yu had been worried that they might feel overwhelmed by the tasks he assigned them, but he didn’t expect them to be so happy being busy. Indeed, in this primitive society, if you weren’t diligent, you would starve to death. Moreover, there weren’t as many entertainment activities as in modern times, so learning and working were equivalent to entertainment.

But Lu Yu still didn’t squeeze their time, increasing their duration in the dream training ground. Last time, the father of Qing Qiu died of illness, and Lu Yu had considered that it might be related to his long-term work in the Blackwater Tribe. So Lu Yu had been alert and tried to ensure that everyone had enough rest time every day.

Putting those thoughts aside, Lu Yu focused on the present and checked what new features the training ground had after the upgrade.

In the skill training ground, besides the original projects, there were more sub-projects, and a new main project had been added: Smelting.

Lu Yu’s eyes lit up as he examined it closely. Smelting was still in its infancy, with only one sub-project: Bronze.

Although they could only smelt bronze, it was still great. If they could make bronze tools, both their living standards and martial capabilities would improve significantly.

Lu Yu then looked at the combat training ground. There were no additional training projects, but there was an extra option and a note.
