Chapter 3 Welcome to the Primordial age
NiuXu woke up to an excruciating pain at his neck, accompanied by a feeling of extreme suffocation.
Upon opening his eyes, he saw a terrifying scene: A robust man was right beside him, tugging at the string of the ancestral jade necklace that was around his neck. The man's face was painted with camo paints of different colors and his only garment was a loincloth made out of beast skin.
From the looks of it, the robust man planned to take away the piece of jade by pulling the string apart; Did he not realise that NiuXu especially used a reinforced strong glass fiber and tied a dead knot to it so that he won't lose the only ancestral artifact?
Although NiuXu could not see it with his own eyes, he knew that the fiber string has already embedded itself deeply into his flesh, causing him to suffer an excruciating pain.
Even if NiuXu wanted to beg for mercy, under the situation of being strangled alive, he could not even utter a single word. In order not to be strangled to death, he instinctively used his hands to pull against the tightening fiber string; It was at this moment did he realise that his hands were bound together and was hanged from above.
Perhaps he noticed that the miserable youth would be strangled to death before pulling apart the string, the robust man embarrassingly stopped his actions and left immediately after muttering a string of unknown words.
After having a close shave with death, NiuXu struggled to expand his chest to breathe in more oxygen. After several cycles of deep breaths, NiuXu regained his calmness and it was then could he assess his current situation.
After surveying his surroundings, he was completely stunned by what he saw.
NiuXu remembered that before he fainted, a gigantic lightning bolt struck at him and it was during that moment that the jade started to seemingly heat up, and he lost consciousness after that.
However, he could not phantom how did he end stark naked with his hands tied and hanged from an unknown tree, instead of lying on a clean hospital bed.
A fresh piece of twine, which possessed incredible toughness, was used to tie his hands together. After several bouts of struggling, not only did the twine not loosen, the struggling caused his wrist to expose bare flesh mixed together with blood.
When a gust of cold wind blew past him, it caused the youth to have goosebumps all over. This position is quite embarrassing…
This place is an extremely primordial and filthy village, where thousands of small-sized thatch huts were sparsely located; The muddy ground suggested that it might have rained not long ago, and it was mixed together with all sorts of excreta, unknown skeletons and stains of black colored blood.
To NiuXu, the scene in front of him looked akin to hell. About 100 adults, not minding their bare feet stepping into mud puddles, excitedly surrounded him and were either spectating him or pointing at him. Occasionally, there would even be sounds of laughter.
To make matters worse, tens of butt-naked whelps were rolling around in the mud puddles. Even if they had been reduced to mud-skippers, none of the adults would stop them.
Amongst the 100 plus membered crowd, a large percentage was occupied by the females; However, regardless of the gender, they only used a small piece of beast skin to cover their private parts. (TN: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) )
Only a small proportion of men had their face painted with colorful camo paints; the rest wore large amounts of animal bones, teeths, or even beautiful small stones as decorations without exception.
Their figures were all exceptionally tall and sturdy. NiuXu inspected that the males' heights were generally above 2.2m, even the females' heights were at least 1.9m; The exposed muscles of the males were as tough as rock, while the females' womanly features were all very apparent.
Although he could not understand what they were saying, NiuXu knew that their expressions were like looking at a caged variant in a zoo back in his original world.
At the same time, NiuXu spotted traces of his missing clothes among the tribal people.
A robust man, who was taller than NiuXu, was wearing his tight fit T-shirt, which barely covered his chest area; When it comes to NiuXu's casual trousers, the robust man wore it such that it became a capri pants.
The fate of his underwear with snoopy's head printed on it ended up peculiarly on the outside of a woman's beast skin cloth; It can be observed that the woman's status is not ordinary as the other women gazed at her peculiar outfit with envy.
NiuXu knew that this was definitely not a prank, nor was he involved in a film by mistake; Firstly, just based on the process of strangling him to death, NiuXu would sue the crew to utter bankruptcy.
Furthermore, there were simply too many things that defied common sense.
For example: Not too long ago, NiuXu personally saw 2 little rascals of age not more than 10 fighting with each other. During the fight, one of them smoothy grabbed a 100 kg rock by his side and heavily smashed it onto the other rascal's head.
The rock shattered and the shards flew in all directions. The little rascal that got hit went staggering for awhile; After a few mere shakes of his head, he continued to fight with his companion. His actions made it seemed like he was hit on the head by a soft snowball instead of a rock…
The miserable youth, closed his eyes in pain. Isn't today's situation quite similar to the plotlines in those 'crossing over to another world' fictions in China.
To put it simply, he had teleported to another world! And he was tragically teleported to a primordial age that was completely different from the historical records. Only heavens know what kind of fate awaits him.
After observing him for an hour, the primitives gradually lost interest in him and left in their own groups; It seemed like they were preparing for dinner as it was already dusk.
Those little rascals were still brimming with inexhaustible stamina and thus, continued their fight. Each time they make a move would cause people to shudder with fear; Even the strongest student in No. 52 national High School, who was twice their age, was extremely weak when compared with those little rascals. (TN: Hacks.exe just saying)
The hanging NiuXu felt that he was like a piece of bacon, waiting to be dried and thereafter, consumed.
He felt that both of his arms had went numb since ages ago and the injury on his neck was still excruciatingly painful. In a bid to distract himself from the pain, he carefully stared at the primitives, observing what kind of food do they consume; One most important thing was that he had to ensure if they were cannibals.
The conclusion to his observations made him quite depressed. Their food was extremely lacking in terms of quantity and quality, even lacking in variety was an understatement; miserable amount of blocks of fresh meat were stringed together by branches and were grilled at the fire pit. In order not to waste any meat shavings, they shaved the bone such that it was even cleaner than a dog chewing on it.
Other than the blocks of fresh meat, they had a few appealing fruits-which was also meagre in amount.
Hence, NiuXu came up to a conclusion: This is a primordial tribe that severely lacks in food, when facing a 100 pound meat such as himself, the final ending would not be so wonderful.
Sorry for the long wait! Release will be once per week as my exams are coming soon, in like 2 weeks. However, I will try my best to upload as many as I can once exams are over. Cya!~
