Building a Civilization and Raising Cubs in the Beast World – Chapter 80

Chapter 80

Foxbu couldn’t speak, so he could only use sounds and movements to attract the attention of the wolves, but the orcs guarding the door obviously didn’t buy it. The wolves made much more noise when they were playing, and the rest of the people were still sleeping soundly. The noise he made was not worth mentioning at all. They should just sleep and eat.

Foxbu looked at the wolf orcs outside who acted as if he didn’t exist, and racked his brains to think of other solutions. He must go out and inform the people in the tribe, otherwise all his plans will be in vain.

But they waited all night, until the morning when the wolf tribe changed shifts, and then they pushed open the stone door and dragged out Shi Hong’s body.

Foxbuster was worried that the two would notice something was wrong, so he showed a very sad expression and tried hard to disguise himself as a poor orc who was heartbroken after losing his partner.

However, the two young men didn’t even look at him, nor did they check the wounds on Shi Hong’s body. They didn’t care about the cause of Shi Hong’s death. They dragged the body out roughly and slammed the heavy stone door shut again. They didn’t say a word to Fox Bu from beginning to end.

Foxbu tried to talk to the two of them, but his mouth was blocked. He finally waited until noon when the water was given. After the wolf tribe untied the bite stopper on his body, the first thing he wanted to do was to see the leader: “I want to see the leader of the Blood Wolf Tribe and the leader of the Snow Rabbit Tribe!”

“The leader is busy, who has time to see you.” The wolf tribe said unhappily. They have been very busy recently. They have to prepare supplies for the winter and food for the market. Now they have to assign some people to keep an eye on the orcs of the Mad Lion Tribe, which makes them even busier.

As for the leaders, they had no time to deal with Foxbu, and Bai Tu had already said that he would starve Foxbu for a while, so of course they had to obey! They were not given anything to eat except half a bowl of water a day! If he wasn’t afraid that the person would die too quickly and it would be difficult to question him, he wouldn’t even want to give him water.

Foxbu lowered his head to hide the calculation in his eyes, he didn’t expect that no one cared about Shi Hong’s death. Without Shi Hong, he had even less to use. Foxbu’s eyes rolled and he said stubbornly: “I won’t drink unless you let me see Bai Tu!”

“If you don’t want to drink, then forget it.” The wolf tribe had been impatient for a long time. Upon hearing this, they put the bite stopper back on his head without saying a word and threw the water in the bowl aside.

Foxbu struggled. In the Mad Lion Tribe, he was the leader’s favorite companion, and the others naturally obeyed him. In addition, he knew about herbs, and his status was much higher than other orcs. He had never suffered such an injustice. Especially the bite stopper on his mouth. Foxbu knew this thing. It was used for orcs who made mistakes to prevent them from hurting other people. He obviously didn’t hurt anyone! In order to save trouble, these people actually made him wear this thing.

Foxstep grabbed the wolf’s arm and tried to snatch the key from his hand.

Few teenagers who are still growing up have good tempers. They can’t help but act naughty in front of the leader, let alone in private. The leader didn’t like Foxbu in the first place and was angered by his action. When he touched his stomach, he kicked him out: “Disgusting orc, don’t touch me!”

Foxbu was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard someone say this about him since he returned to the Red Fox Tribe. The orcs of the Fox Tribe are well-known for their beauty in the Beast God Continent. Foxbu knew the places that could be used on him, and he did have other ideas about getting close to the Wolf Tribe, but he never expected to be told a disgusting response.

The method that had been effective since entering the growth period suddenly lost its effect. Foxbu didn’t know what to do for a moment. What other methods could he use to save his life? He has been the most handsome orc since he was a child, and he has obtained countless resources because of this. Now his usual easy-to-use methods are of no use in front of the wolf tribe. The orcs he was familiar with were imprisoned in several other caves and were being watched by wolves, so he had no chance to go over and look for them. No matter how well they had discussed it in the beginning, they cannot communicate now, and the Lion Tribe cannot overthrow the Wolf Tribe and the Rabbit Tribe.

Foxbu suddenly felt scared. No matter he was besieged by other lion tribes or in the rainy season when food was scarce, he had a chance to turn things around because he had orcs behind him, and more than one. But now he was truly isolated and helpless. The only one who could help him was strangled to death by him yesterday…

The wolf tribe shook Foxbu off and took the bowl of water out and poured it out. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. He wanted to find someone to take over his shift. He was going to complain to the boss! This damn orc actually touched his belly! How could Foxbu have the right to touch such an important position!

Langze was asking Baitu for help in front of Baitu Cave. He didn’t know that the leader had to do so many things before. He usually saw his brother being quite leisurely, but when he took charge, he found that there were too many things to do.

Langze still needs Baitu’s help to calculate the points for his own team. Now he is scratching his head over the names and numbers. If it was the same kind of team as before, it would be fine. But now the Blood Wolf Tribe has added a construction team, a mining team, a blacksmith team, etc., just like this side. There are so many people, divided into so many types, it makes him dizzy.

Langze thought about it for a whole night and finally came up with a good idea: ask Bai Tu for help. Although he would have to face his brother’s death threat if he asked Bai Tu for help now, he was not afraid at all as long as Bai Tu was there!

Seeing the wolves coming, Langze pushed the bamboo slips recording the points in front of Bai Tu and said, “I’m going to be busy!”

Bai Tu waved his hand indifferently, “Go ahead.” Langze is a child himself, at the age when he likes to play. If Langqi hadn’t been injured suddenly, he would probably have gone to some corner to look for treasure. Bai Tu didn’t intend to push him too hard. Langze really needs to take up the responsibility as soon as possible, but this burden should not be placed on him alone.

And except for his lack of interest in words, Langze did well in other aspects, especially in defense. Having played in the territory for a long time, Langze knew all the routes in and out of the tribe and was able to defend the two tribes tightly.

Bai Tu grabbed Lang Qi, who was about to hit Lang Ze because he had abandoned his work and ran away, and comforted him, “It’s okay, I just happen to have nothing to do here.”

During the establishment of each team, he had made various arrangements. Each job had its own team leader. Now the advantages were reflected. By directly connecting with the team leader, things could basically be handled well. Moreover, because the team leader could make decisions on many things independently, even if they set out now, the remaining orcs could handle any emergencies in the tribe.

They had spent two or three days to arrange everything for after their departure. Today, they had less things to do, so it was no problem for them to help Langze.

Lang Qi glanced at the bamboo slips that seemed familiar to him for some reason, as he was seeing them for the first time. He said nothing and stood up to feed the cubs.

I don’t know if it’s because they were hungry that day or for some other reason, but the two cubs’ appetite has increased dramatically recently. Before, each of them ate about half a bowl of food three times a day, but in the past two days, they have eaten four times a day, and each of them eats more than half a bowl of food.

Lang Qi’s attitude towards the cubs has also changed. Although he still doesn’t smile, at least he won’t threaten him with the cubs from time to time. Thinking of this, Bai Tu breathed a sigh of relief. Even if he didn’t take action, a threatening look from time to time would make people speechless.

It’s just that Lang Qi still won’t let him get close to the cubs. It’s not that he won’t let him all the time, he can hold them occasionally, but Lang Qi has to feed them himself. Bai Tu still hasn’t figured out the reason.

After several days of observation, Bai Tu had a new understanding of Lang Qi’s symptoms. At the same time, he also felt that something was wrong with himself recently. He didn’t know if it was because of the drugs he inhaled that day. The two of them would uncontrollably turn into beast form in the middle of the night every day, and then change back the next morning.

Bai Tu rubbed his eyebrows. This was indeed a trouble. It was okay to live in the cave now, but what about going out to exchange salt? But he didn’t want to miss the only two chances a year to discover new items. He had to go because other orcs didn’t recognize those unfamiliar items and might get some useless items in return which would be a waste of supplies. Bai Tu was thinking about whether he should think of a solution.

Apart from transforming into a beast every night, there is no inconvenience in other aspects. After all, Lang Qi will not hurt people casually, and now he knows who are his people.

Bai Tu counted the list sent by Langze, made some modifications, closed the bamboo slips, and began to think about how to conceal it.

Bai Tu thought about it for a while and suddenly remembered an item.

tent.

It was almost a must-have item for traveling in my previous life. I didn’t think of making it last time, not only because I didn’t have enough time, but also because it was summer and the only things I needed to protect myself from were mosquitoes. Now the temperature is dropping, getting lower day by day. You need to wrap yourself in several layers of animal skins when sleeping outside. Some orcs have taken out the thick animal skins from the bottom of their boxes.

Bai Tu walked to the wardrobe where he stored animal skins and took out a few skins that were not soft enough. He had originally planned to use them as door curtains at the entrance of the cave, but now he decided to try making a tent first.

There are many ways to make a tent. Bai Tu plans to make one that can be folded and easy to carry. It also has to be large enough to accommodate at least two adults. Moreover, when Lang Qi turns into a beast, he needs more space than a human. Bai Tu doesn’t want to be crushed to death while sleeping. It’s not that Lang Qi’s sleeping posture is bad, but the size difference is too big. Just like a cub, it’s easy to get hurt. If the big orc is not paying attention, it will be fatal to him.

Find a blank wooden board from the white map, paint on it to draw the most basic structure, and then prepare the materials based on this.

In order to make the tent sturdy enough, several important locations are supported by iron pipes, and hard and straight wood is chosen for less important locations.

After all, it was a big item, and even with Langqi’s help, it took two days to make a tent. Bai Tu asked Bai Qi whether he should make a batch for the tribe, but it was too late this time and they might have to wait until next winter to be used.

Bai Qi was originally curious about this item which he saw for the first time, but when he heard that it was used to keep warm, he quickly waved his hand and said, “We just need to turn into beasts.”

Orcs are not resistant to cold in human form, but it is different when they turn into beasts. Almost all hairy orcs can grow a thick and dense layer of fur in winter, which has a particularly good thermal insulation effect. When many orcs gather together, the thermal insulation ability is even better. Sometimes the orc sleeping in the middle will feel hot and have to go to the outside to get some fresh air. Of course, this only applies to the beginning of winter. If you do this in the middle of winter, you will definitely be frozen solid the next day.

Bai Tu: “…” He almost forgot that everyone rested in animal form last time, but it was not convenient for him to see people in animal form, so he decided to use a tent.

Bai Tu was checking the tent to see if there was anything that needed to be adjusted when Lang You suddenly ran up and said, “Tu, someone from the Lion Tribe is looking for you. He said he saw Foxbu looking for people from the Bald Tribe!”

Bai Tu packed up the tent and immediately said, “I’ll be down right away.”

The orcs that Lang You was guarding were different from the other orcs. Most of them were the companions of Shi Hong and several other small chiefs. These people had one thing in common: their children were killed by Shi Hong or the small chiefs.

After the orcs of the Mad Lion Tribe were captured, many timid lions answered their questions seriously. However, most of the orcs did not know about some decisions and only obeyed the orders of the leader and sub-leaders. The useful content was limited, but they did answer a lot of private matters.

On the day he left the cave, Bai Tu began to slowly analyze the affairs of the Mad Lion Tribe. After all, he couldn’t pin all his hopes on Hei Xiao, who hadn’t received any news from this side. No matter how fast the Eagle Tribe was, it would take nearly half a month to go back and forth, so he couldn’t just sit there and wait.

Many of those seemingly useless private matters are related to each other, and the inexplicably killed lion cubs are one of them.

Since Foxbu entered the Crazy Lion Tribe, as many as forty or fifty lion cubs have died because they were not recognized by their biological fathers. This is a very scary number. It is impossible that so many lions would betray their partners and be willing to give birth to their lovers’ cubs.

Before this, similar incidents only occurred once or twice a year.
