Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 144 Breakdown
At that moment, Zhou Xu, who felt a life was born in his hands, couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

But after realizing some troubles that followed, he quickly became frowning again.

For example, how will they feed the newly born cubs at the age of suckling?

At the same time, according to the urine nature of the hyena man, it is undoubtedly clear at this moment that he suddenly started looking for the reason why this beast is unlucky.

Most likely it was because the beast was weakened by pregnancy.

And just as Zhou Xu was thinking about it, the four little claws of the cub had already started to claw at him.

Good guy, even though he is only five or six catties, it really hurts when his claws touch his skin.

Seeing this, Zhou Xu simply took off the piece of animal skin that was his coat, and then wrapped the cub up.

In this weather, people can't wait to shed a layer of skin, and they don't feel cold at all even when they are shirtless.

On the other hand, the cub, under the wrapping of the animal skin, couldn't stretch its four legs at will, so it became calm all of a sudden.

During the period, amidst the sound of 'wowing', the eyes of the cub slowly opened, looking at Zhou Xu who was holding him in his arms, it stopped barking instead, with a pair of big blue-gray round eyes, that's all. He looked straight at Zhou Xu, not knowing what he was looking at.

After staring at him for a while, Zhou Xu looked away and looked in the direction they came from.

A few members of the transportation team appeared in his field of vision just pushing the wooden cart.

Although he was not sure whether he could find the beast, but with a kind of preparedness in mind, he still called the members of the transport team to follow.

And now, it is undoubtedly coming in handy.

Let Zhou Zhongshan and Ye Jinghong go up to help. They will definitely take the corpse of this beast back.

After all, judging from the previous performance of the hyena people, this corpse may be a bit tricky.

Otherwise, when this ferocious beast fell into their trap, the other party would have just left. There is no need to stay here and fight them to the death.

The purpose of the death knock is most likely for this corpse.

As for what is so special about this corpse...

This can only be studied slowly after being transported back to the camp.

This beast is so huge that it takes a lot of effort to push it with a cart. By the time they returned to the camp, the sun was about to set. Once they came down, everyone was sweating profusely from exhaustion, even Zhou Xu was no exception. .

The cub wrapped in animal skins was tied up in front of him and slept soundly, which made Zhou Xu smile.

[I really want to slap it awake. 】

Of course, he just thought about it casually, even if he was out of breath from exhaustion, he wouldn't really have trouble with such a little guy.

On the camp side, Zhou Xu had roughly arranged the tasks before leaving, and with Li Ce in charge of dispatching, some post-war work is now done in an orderly manner.

And they who came back with the corpse of the beast undoubtedly attracted the attention of everyone in the tribe.

Since the previous hyena people came chasing this beast, most of the tribe members on the grassland camp had seen this beast before.

But the distance was far before, unlike now.

Although the beast had turned into a corpse, its huge size still shocked the members of the tribe.

"Boss, what should we do with the corpse of this giant beast?"

After returning to the camp, as the person in charge of the camp and dispatching the manpower, Li Ce quickly stepped forward to inquire.

Zhou Xu naturally understood what Li Ce meant.

It's midsummer now, and the climate is hot. If a corpse like this is left untreated for a period of time, it will soon rot and stink.

"Find a few good hands in the camp, speed up your actions, and deal with it. Be careful when handling it. There may be something special about the corpse of this beast..."

Having said that, Zhou Xu paused.

"Forget it, I'll watch from the side."

Although he had just delivered this cub from the beast's belly before, it didn't mean that he would show mercy to the beast.

If there were no accidents, there was a high probability that this beast would become food in their mouths.

In this regard, Zhou Xu has no psychological burden. After all, this era is like this. Such a huge pile of meat and large areas of leather cannot be wasted.

As for the cubs who are still in their infancy...

To be honest, he hadn't figured out how to raise this cub during the journey. At this juncture, where would he go to find milk for this little guy?

Zhou Xu was thinking at this moment, if he could smash fish or other food into a paste, and see if this little guy would eat it.

If this little guy doesn't eat, or accidentally feeds to death, then he can only add a dish to himself.

Before transmigrating, he might still have a little sympathy when he saw the cubs looking cute, but now, it's basically gone.

After all, reality is like this, and sometimes people have to learn to accept reality, instead of getting old and living with reality.

While thinking, Zhou Xu looked at the expert in charge of disposing of the corpse, and asked the transportation team to help move the corpse to the open space beside him.

During this period, Li Ce was not idle, standing by the side and quickly reported the casualties to Zhou Xu...

"The fifteen soldiers who came with us were basically injured but no one died. Four of them were seriously injured and are currently being treated for treatment."

"Of the 30 people in the grassland camp, eight died, six were seriously injured, and the rest were also injured."

Li Ce said this with a heavy tone. In this era, a serious injury is basically equivalent to death, especially in the grassland camp, which directly lost nearly half of the damage. Their losses in this wave are not insignificant!
After listening to the report, Zhou Xu took a deep breath.

At this moment, whether he was from the perspective of emotion or the loss of their tribe, this report was enough to make him feel heavy.

In the previous battles between tribes, due to the limitation of the strength of weapons, there would be basically no such situation.

This also made it really the first time for Zhou Xu to suffer such casualties.

Exhaling slowly, Zhou Xu, who had adjusted his mood, spoke in a deep voice...

"Pile up all the bodies of the brothers who died in battle outside the tribe."

Having said that, Zhou Xu turned his head and glanced at the coronagraph placed in the camp, and then spoke again.

"Two quarters of an hour later, except those who are incapacitated, everyone will gather there to cremate these corpses."

"Boss, what is the cremation?"

"It is to burn the corpse. Once the corpse rots, it is easy to produce germs. Burning is the best burial method."

Although Li Ce and the others don't know what 'cremation' is, they still know something about 'germs' because their tribe has established a medical department long ago and also proposed the concept of 'disease'.

Under this premise, they don't seem to have much objection to burning the corpse.

After understanding what 'cremation' is, Li Ce nodded and ran to make arrangements.
