Absolute Great Teacher-Novel2

Chapter 1125: Reunion

Although Hui Shi was young, he was an outstanding hunter.

Honestly speaking, 17 years old was already considered a middle-aged man in the stone era where one would usually not live past 30+ years.

“Come over here!”

Hui Shi ran a few steps. He then grabbed some vines that extended downward from a towering tree and began climbing up like a monkey.

“You should stay here!”

Sun Mo instructed the papaya girl and also rapidly climbed up the large tree, hiding behind the dense branches and leaves.

Only by looking down from above would one be able to fully exploit the advantage of using a bow. Moreover, they could view the battle situation and get themselves familiar with it.

Very soon, three sorry-looking figures stumbled into Sun Mo’s vision.

Pak!

Jin Mujie’s legs gave out. She didn’t manage to jump past those thick tree roots on the ground. Hence, she stumbled and fell.

“Teacher Jin!”

Gu Xiuxun returned to help her.

“You guys should continue running!”

Jin Mujie gritted her teeth and clutched a stone blade tightly. “I can’t make it anymore. I will guard the rear for you all.”

“No way!”

Gu Xiuxun spoke and squatted down, “I’ll carry you on my back!”

Pak!

Jin Mujie pushed Gu Xiuxun away. “Do you want to die?”

“Her choice is correct!”

Bai Fu sat at the side and took the chance to regain some stamina. “Rather than running to the point where we reach our limits and being captured alive, we might as well give it our all and fight, unleashing our final strength.”

“Shut up!”

Gu Xiuxun roared. After that, she looked at Jin Mujie. “If Sun Mo was here, he would surely not give you up. If I do something like this, I won’t be worthy of the title ‘great teacher’!”

When Bai Fu heard this, she felt a burning sensation on her face.

Gu Xiuxun’s choice was very foolish, but it also showed the light of humanity and courage.

“Don’t quarrel anymore. If Sun Mo was injured, he would also not choose to burden you guys.”

Jin Mujie decided not to leave. As the eldest sister here, how could she burden the younger ones?

Ao! Ao!

A bunch of people screamed shrilly and caught up to them.

“Excellent, none of us can escape now.”

Although Bai Fu gave very rationale reasons verbally, she didn’t abandon Gu Xiuxun and Jin Mujie. She brandished a stone blade she snatched from a savage. “Since this is the case, let us fight to the death then!”

“Mn!”

Gu Xiuxun inhaled deeply. “If I’m captured alive, and if you guys have a chance to do so, give me a swift death!”

(I’ll definitely not permit my body to be tainted by these savages. Ai! If I knew this would happen, I would have let Sun Mo take advantage of me.)

“Me too!”

Bai Fu nodded.

…

Hui Shi hid and stared at these three women. His heart was bubbling with joy.

(They are so beautiful! I must capture them back and make them bear kids for me. This is especially so for the older one. Her figure is like a ripened large snow pear, I really feel like taking a bite of it! However, the number of enemies seems a little too much. It’s troublesome.)

“We finally met someone familiar!”

Sun Mo felt like crying.

The savages of the Red Rock Tribe kept making a din.

They were doing this because they wanted to make Jin Mujie and the others continue to run so they would exhaust their stamina. This was the hunting method usually used by the savages.

Now seeing the three of them not moving and preparing to fight like a cornered beast, a hunter immediately lifted his bow. But just before he could fire his arrow, another savage at the side knocked his arm away.

Pak!

Woosh!

The arrow missed.

“What are you doing? What if you kill them?”

Hong Tu was very angry. If such beautiful women were shot to death, what a loss would that be?

“Careful, we will surely get rewards from the chieftain if we gift them to him!”

“Why don’t we keep them? I don’t have a woman yet!”

“The Fire God has been angry recently. It’s better to use them as sacrificial offerings to calm the Fire God.”

The savages quarreled as though Jin Mujie and the other two women were already their captives.

“How to split?”

Hong Tu asked.

There were seven savages, while there were only three women. That was too few to split.

“What do you mean?”

A baldie didn’t understand. “Let’s do things according to our old rules. One person per day?”

The women from the Gray Rock Tribe they had captured were shared like this, so everyone had time to enjoy them.

“I want the big one.”

Hong Tu was worried these fellows wouldn’t understand him. So he added another sentence. “She is mine, solely!”

These words directly caused the savages to start arguing again.

Hui Shi looked at Sun Mo.

Sun Mo immediately pointed to the three women.

Hui Shi nodded as he instantly understood Sun Mo’s intention. His meaning was that he would be responsible for the three women. After that, Hui Shi saw Sun Mo lifting three fingers before slowly retracting them one by one.

He knew that this was sign language. Once all three fingers were fully retracted back into a fist, he could start his attack.

You don’t say… but it was truly convenient.

When savages hunted, they would use various animal cries to substitute language. But this wouldn’t work when it came to fighting against a rival tribe. After all, everyone was simply too familiar with each other. No matter how similar their animal cries sounded, it wouldn’t fool their rivals.

“Teacher is too talented. After I return to my tribe, I can spread knowledge of this sign language!”

As Hui Shi thought about this, Sun Mo shot two arrows, aiming at a short-hair savage.

This was to guarantee his accuracy.

Sun Mo’s archery skills were at the grandmaster level. In the plains, he would be referred to as a godly archer, a Jebe. He was worried about the safety of Gu Xiuxun and the others, hence, he decided to go all out, doing his best to reduce the opponent’s strength.

Woosh! Woosh!

The arrows shot forward, and their target was Hong Tu.

Hong Tu’s senses were very sharp and he subconsciously dodged. Although he avoided instantly dying, his leg was still struck by the first arrow. This caused his movement to be slowed down and the second arrow penetrated his eye socket.

Putong!

Hong Tu fell dead.

“This bow is really rubbish!”

Sun Mo was speechless. The bow’s accuracy was too weak. Luckily, he was cautious enough and used two arrows, or he would have failed.

Hong Tu was a muscular and sturdy man, clearly the leader of this small team. After killing him, it would cause their morale to drastically weaken, and they would be without a leader. There was a huge probability that the enemies would surely descend into chaos.

As expected, the remaining enemies all made different choices. Some lunged toward Jin Mujie and the two women as they felt reluctant to give up on them, and some chose to hide. The remaining ones rushed madly toward the direction of the arrows, wanting to fight in close combat.

“Bold but not very astute!”

Sun Mo loved such enemies the most. He leisurely released arrows to reap lives.

“Hui Shi, attack.”

Sun Mo roared in a low voice.

Hui Shi didn’t doubt him and directly leaped down from the tree.

As for Sun Mo, he sat securely at a height and slowly aimed.

“It is a bastard from the Gray Rock Tribe!”

The three people who had chosen to hide charged out when they saw Hui Shi. In the end, they were buried by a rain of arrows.

Woosh~ Woosh~ Woosh!

The arrows whistled through the air, causing them to be dumbfounded.

(What is this? Are you not afraid that you might shoot this bastard by mistake?)

Hui Shi also jumped in fright, having never experienced such a battle tactic before. But after seeing the enemies being shot to death, he grew happy. This teacher was truly impressive.

(This archery skill is godly. After I return, I’ll get him to teach me!)

If there was a choice, Sun Mo also wouldn’t want Hui Shi to take such a risk. However, he had to reduce the number of enemies as fast as possible.

Luckily, the effect was very excellent.

Now, the only ones remaining were the two that lunged toward Jin Mujie and the others.

Gu Xiuxun and Bai Fu held stone blades and rushed over.

After they entered the game, they lost all spirit qi and their constitution weakened. There were no differences between them and ordinary women. Fortunately, they still had their moves.

It was also because of their exquisite and profound moves that they could fight equally against the savages. If not, they would have long since been killed.

“It’s over!”

Gu Xiuxun didn’t feel happy when she saw the chaos of their pursuers. No matter what, they would still be captured by the savages of a tribe.

“Endure it!”

Sun Mo roared. He then grabbed hold of a vine and swung down from the tree that was over ten-meter tall.

He was like Tarzan!

“Sun Mo?”

Gu Xiuxun’s eyes brightened, and she felt an immense sense of happiness filling her chest.

“Run!”

The remaining two savages intelligently retreated after seeing this.

“Don’t chase them!”

Seeing that Hui Shi wanted to pursue them, Sun Mo hurriedly persuaded him.

“Sun Mo, boo hoo hoo. It’s so good to see you.”

Gu Xiuxun rushed over and hugged Sun Mo. She had been truly frightened during this period.

“Everything is fine now!”

Sun Mo patted the masochist’s back. “Where are the others?”

“There are only three of us!” Gu Xiuxun’s countenance changed. “Don’t tell me you have been living alone?”

“There’s also Zhiruo!”

Sun Mo got Gu Xiuxun to release him from her hug. He still had to inspect Jin Mujie’s injuries.

“Teachers!”

The papaya girl hurriedly came over and greeted.

“Teacher Sun!”

Bai Fu expressed her thanks, yet her eyes were regarding Sun Mo with curiosity.

Although this man was also dressed in a grass skirt, he was fully armed. He had a bow, stone blades, daggers, and a quiver full of arrows.

Naturally, the most important thing was his complexion.

Bai Fu and the other two had been hungry for so many days. Their complexion was yellow, and they had clearly grown skinnier. But Sun Mo was completely fine. Although his face wasn’t shining brightly with the glow of health, his mental state was very good.

Also, this female student’s papayas were still as big as ever, showing no signs of shrinking.

Bai Fu felt that she might be inferior to Sun Mo, but she would definitely be stronger than Lu Zhiruo. But now, she was living worse off compared to her. Clearly, the crux of this had to be Sun Mo.

“Teachers, eat something?”

Without needing instructions, Lu Zhiruo already distributed jerky for everyone.

“Boohoohoo, Zhiruo, I love you so much.”

Gu Xiuxun hugged Lu Zhiruo and rubbed her cheeks on the papaya girl’s face. “Do you know that during these few days, I was so hungry that I began to see illusions? When I looked at clouds in the sky, I would imagine that they are chicken drumsticks and I would drool.”

Gu Xiuxun received the jerky and chewed it slowly, feeling reluctant to swallow it with a single gulp.

“The wound has festered a little, but it isn’t fatal.”

Sun Mo inspected Jin Mujie’s injury. “Let’s head back to rest and reorganize!”

Hui Shi immediately ran over.

“Teacher, let me carry her?”

Hui Shi was particularly attentive, but Jin Mujie was filled with trepidation and wariness.

“He wants to carry you!” Lu Zhiruo helped to translate. “He has no evil intentions!”

“Thanks, but there’s no need!”

Jin Mujie would rather walk by herself than let a savage touch her.

“Let me carry you then!”

It was impossible for Sun Mo to ignore Jin Mujie.

“Is he your slave?”

Gu Xiuxun chewed on the dried jerky and curiously surveyed Hui Shi. She could tell that this savage respected Sun Mo very much.

“Nope!”

Sun Mo shook his head.

“Why is he so obedient toward you then?”

Bai Fu didn’t understand.

(Why would the savages we met want to chase and kill us, while you actually have a savage as your fighter?)

“This is the power of intelligence.”

Lu Zhiruo flaunted and revealed the achievement of how Sun Mo had deciphered witchcraft from the totem.

“…”

Jin Mujie and the other two were dumbstruck and directly contributed a wave of favorable impression points.

Sun Mo carried Jin Mujie on his back. His hands were naturally placed on her thighs. After that, things got even more awkward.

(Isn’t the sensation of touch a little too clear?)

These three women were wearing straw skirts and their upper bodies were covered by leaves.

If this was in the modern era, such dressing could be treated as wearing a bikini. But in the Nine Provinces where women were scolded for being wanton just by revealing their feet, such style was simply too much.

“Student Lu, could we trouble you to lead the way?”

Bai Fu’s face was slightly red. She wanted to leave with Lu Zhiruo first so she could evade Sun Mo’s line of sight.

“These are bodies generated by the game, nothing but a bunch of data. Why are you guys panicking?”

Sun Mo was speechless.

“What is data?”

Gu Xiuxun was curious. In any case, she was used to Sun Mo seeing her body.

The group of them then returned back to the stone house.

Sun Mo cooked a pot of porridge with meat.

“Wow, we finally can drink some rice porridge.”

Gu Xiuxun was so moved that she wanted to cry.

For the following three days, Sun Mo had enough manpower and this caused their efficiency to become faster as well.

After benefitting from someone else, one must naturally help their benefactor. So, even Bai Fu was willing to act as a subordinate.

Reality had proven that when a girl who was into the arts and literature was hungry, she wouldn’t be able to immerse in that lifestyle anymore. Let alone writing a poem, she wouldn’t even want to scold people.

It would just be a waste of strength!

“Break the salt lumps first and toss them into the stone pot. Add spring water and plant ash to boil it until everything settles!”

As Sun Mo introduced the process, he also personally took action.

After the burning red charcoal cooled down, it would become a very good filter. In addition to the sieve created from mulberry skin, they could filter the saltwater thrice using the two filters to remove the impurities and particles. After that, they had to boil it again and the salt would be separated.

“For the final step, we just have to pour the saltwater on a slate and let the sun shine on it.”

In truth, this was a purification process to deal with coarse salt.

Naturally, there would still be some heavy metallic ions within. But before these things poisoned people to death, the savages would have long since died from sickness or accidents.

Seeing the white and slender salt powder at the bottom of the stone pot, Hui Shi was completely dumbfounded.

He licked his fingertip after dabbing one in it.

(It’s so salty, and there’s no bitter taste. Is this also salt?)

If it wasn’t for him personally seeing Sun Mo using a mysterious technique to create this, Hui Shi wouldn’t believe it.

This was simply too awesome!

Putong!

Hui Shi knelt to Sun Mo and forcefully kowtowed. He was also making strange noises.

“You are the prophet bestowed to us by our ancestors. Please follow me back to the tribe?”

Hui Shi sincerely begged.

With Teacher Sun, the Gray Rock Tribe would surely flourish.

Not only Hui Shi, but the three females were also staring at Sun Mo with a stunned look.

(Why would you even know something like this? How many skills do you actually have that we have no idea of?)

“It’s just purifying salt. There’s no need to be overly awed by this. You guys have not seen my final form yet.”

Sun Mo chortled.

He had no interest in becoming a prophet, but there was a need for him to have a group of hired thugs. After all, he was a great teacher. He couldn’t possibly attend to everything personally, right?

Hui Shi had left his tribe for over half a month, but he had no thoughts of wanting to return at all. This was because he could learn new things by following Sun Mo every day.

There was no need to mention knowledge about medical herbs and animals. Just learning how to fish alone was already extremely impressive.

When Sun Mo had lifted the enclosing frame from the lake, Hui Shi had personally seen several shrimps and two large fishes in it. He was then completely dumbstruck.

Fishes and shrimps were dumb as expected.

Hui Shi had then knelt and kowtowed piously toward Sun Mo.

“Since there’s crab, we can really enjoy a feast!”

Sun Mo recalled the days of his past when he was so poor that he could only eat hairy crabs for a living.

“Can this even be eaten?”

Bai Fu frowned. (This thing has such a grotesque appearance, can it really be consumed as food?)

“You guys are very lucky today and can just wait to eat some good food. Wait for me, Culinary God Sun, to cook something delicious for you all.”

Sun Mo was preparing to flaunt his cooking skills.
