I am a Primitive Man

Chapter 464: The Horrifying loud bang and flashes

Calming everyone down, Han Cheng turned to continue watching the rare meteor shower, filled with deep emotions.

He had thought that he would never see fireworks again once he arrived here. To his surprise, the heavens had sent a meteor shower even more brilliant than fireworks.

It seemed the heavens were being quite generous with him.

The meteor shower lasted for quite a while, around ten minutes or so.

After the prominent display of the meteor shower passed and only a few meteors remained, Han Cheng looked to the side and saw that, at some point, Bai Xue had closed her eyes, her lips moving slightly—making a wish.

Han Cheng’s face twitched. Without asking, he could guess what Bai Xue was wishing for.

Han Cheng wished for a meteor shower for a child but didn’t know how to express his feelings about this.

“Brother Cheng!”

Opening her eyes, Bai Xue saw Han Cheng looking at her and excitedly called out like a little kitten.

The meteor shower, Han Cheng’s words during it, and the emotionally stirring scene made the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe extremely excited.

For a moment, no one felt like sleeping; instead, they all discussed the unforgettable scene with great excitement.

The meteor shower streaked across the sky, illuminating the night. This awe-inspiring sight was not only witnessed by the Green Sparrow Tribe.

Such a phenomenon shocked many tribes living across this vast land!

Under the night sky, a low, Square-shaped wall surrounded an opening glowing with fire.

Though the wall was low, it was still a step up from having no wall at all, offering some comfort to those within.

A group of panicked individuals had gathered in this enclosed space, shouting wildly with fear.

These people were among the braver members of the tribe, but the rest of the tribe had retreated into the cave, too afraid to move.

The frightened cries of children only added to the night’s unease.

Shu Pi, holding a bow, had a much more refined weapon now than the hastily made one he had crafted when he was first expelled from the tribe.

Even though he was outside, his body trembling uncontrollably behind the wall, he was still overwhelmed by the terrifying scene of so many flames flying across the sky above them!

If some of those flames had fallen, their tribe would have been doomed!

Shu Pi wouldn’t have been so scared if it were wild animals or other enemies, but the sight of those fiery masses coming from the sky genuinely terrified him.

It gave him a sense of helplessness.

After waiting for a while and seeing no more fire in the sky, Shu Pi, still trembling, suddenly stood up, raising his bow high and shouting in celebration and pride.

The sounds of his cheers continued, and soon, others holding weapons behind the low wall joined in the howling.

Hearing the cheering from outside, those hiding in the cave felt less frightened. Some bolder individuals tentatively ventured out from the cave and joined the cheering crowd, with more people emerging from inside...

Their lack of fear did not mean that others were not afraid.

To the north of Shu Pi's tribe, about a hundred miles away, another tribe was hiding in their cave, peering out through the gaps in the stone slabs with terror.

Fear had spread throughout the entire tribe. Even the bravest among them clung to their weapons, trembling with fright.

For them, tonight was nothing short of a disaster.

While they were either sleeping or humming tunes in their cave, a tremendous roar suddenly erupted from outside. It was louder than summer thunder.

The roar paralyzed the cave inhabitants. Some looked through the gaps in the cave entrance and saw flames flickering at night near the cave.

If that had been the only occurrence, perhaps their fear would have been more manageable. But the roaring continued, accompanied by terrifying firelight.

The cave suddenly shook during this ordeal, and small stones fell from above, intensifying their already extreme fear.

They huddled together, shaking uncontrollably.

In the face of natural disasters, humanity often seems incredibly insignificant.

Under their fearful gaze, the flames continued burning for a long time before gradually dying.

This provided some comfort to those in the cave, but no one dared venture outside to see what had actually happened.

What they could do was make the fire inside the cave burn brighter to bolster their courage.

That night, many people in the stricken tribe stayed awake, unable to sleep.

The idea of relocating the tribe, leaving this terrifying place, began to take root in many minds.

The long night finally passed in this anxious state, and dawn broke.

Compared to the mysterious and frightening darkness, daylight always provided some courage.

However, it seemed not enough. The cave of the tribe remained tightly closed.

Behind the stone slab, someone was crouched, peering out through the gap.

After a long while, someone who seemed to be the leader finally mustered enough courage.

He slowly moved the stone slab blocking the cave entrance, gripped his weapon tightly, and cautiously stepped out to examine the area. Seeing nothing unusual, he cautiously stepped out of the cave.

Nevertheless, he was prepared to retreat into the cave at any moment.

He looked toward the front side of the cave, not too far from the entrance, where a large area of blackened ground lay.

That was the mark left by the fire.

He stared at it for a while, and seeing no movement, his courage gradually increased.

He picked up a stone in front of the cave, gripped it tightly, and threw it toward the ash-covered area.

When the stone was thrown, he quickly retreated into the cave.

Clutching his weapon, he and the others anxiously watched the direction of the throw.

The stone traveled a short distance through the air, lost momentum, and fell to the ground, rolling a bit before stopping.

It landed some distance away from the ash-covered area.

Everyone held their weapons tightly inside the cave, staring fixedly at the ashes, fearful that something might suddenly leap out from there...
