Building a Civilization and Raising Cubs in the Beast World – Chapter 117

Chapter 117

Actually, the main reason for the slow running was that there was no hunting in the winter, and it was not the first time that it happened. It was just that in the past, people were so hungry that they were skin and bones and had no strength, so it was normal that they could not run. Now, they were full and they were still so slow. The group of people saw that there was only a thin layer of snow outside and started exercising immediately. After all, no one wanted to be so fat that they couldn’t walk.

Originally, the joke about being too fat to run was just within the tribe, but somehow the word got to the Yellow Lion Tribe. When Shi Su brought people over to take the cubs’ last month’s food, he was a little envious.

If it were anyone else, Shi Su would not say anything, but Bai Tu’s attitude was usually too kind, which made people relax involuntarily. Shi Su was worrying about the food problem of the tribe, and when he saw that the Snow Rabbit tribe not only had no worries about food and drink, but were even worried about eating too much, how could he not envy them.

“I wish our tribe could be like this someday.” Shi Su sighed, but he was just saying it. Even if they started to learn the various strategies of the Snow Rabbit Tribe now, it would take several years to reach this level.

Not to mention that they don’t know all the skills, even if they learned them, they might not be able to find the raw materials. Shi Su has been in and out of the Snow Rabbit Tribe many times and knows that there are at least several kinds of supplies here that they have never heard of. It is because of those things that the Rabbit Tribe’s living standards are so good. Other tribes can do nothing but envy.

Bai Tu was a little surprised that the news spread so quickly. After all, those jokes had only been made for a few days. Then he heard Shi Su’s sigh and thought that this year was indeed quite difficult, so he asked about the situation at the Yellow Lion Tribe.

All we can say is that it is fortunate that there is food prepared for the rescued lion cubs. Shi Su said that as long as the food for those rescued people is provided, Bai Tu certainly cannot give only this much.

The other party also helped provide a lot of labor. The food Bai Tu gave out was enough for sixty or seventy people. Shi Su gave the meat he brought back to those lions who were pregnant or had just given birth, and distributed corn and other foods to the tribesmen, otherwise they would have started starving long ago.

The taste of corn is definitely not as good as meat, but one advantage is that the portion is large. The tribe harvested two seasons of corn and was particularly generous when distributing it. Both the Yellow Lion Tribe and the Flower Deer Tribe who came to borrow food took a lot. Even so, the remaining amount was enough for the tribe to eat for a long time.

The Lion Tribe has a big appetite, and they have been living frugally since the second month of winter. However, no matter how much they save, the number of people is still there, and with the corn and other food given by Bai Tu, there is not much left now. Bai Tu calculated the food surplus of the tribe in his mind, and discussed with Bai An, and decided to lend some to Shi Su.

They were willing to lend the food not only because they wanted to help, but also because it was already late winter. The weather in the Beast God Continent changed quickly, and when spring came, all things revived and food would become more and more abundant. Their tribe only needed to keep enough food and seeds before summer, and it would be a waste to leave the extra corn.

Bai Tu was not so cruel as to keep the food and watch others starve, not to mention that Shi Su said that except for the food for the cubs and their mothers, the food eaten by others would be returned when they caught prey in the summer. No matter whether he could return it by then, at least he had shown his attitude, and anyone who saw it would be satisfied.

Because they were familiar with Shi Su, the few people didn’t take Shi Su’s joke seriously. However, a few days after Shi Su left, the White Lion Tribe came to visit the tribe.

The Yellow Lion Tribe did not have enough food, and the White Lion Tribe, which was weaker than the Yellow Lion Tribe, had been hungry for a longer time. However, they were not as familiar with the Snow Rabbit Tribe as the Yellow Lion Tribe, and had not contacted them before going to pick up the cubs. They could not bring themselves to borrow food, so they planned to foster the cubs with the Rabbit Tribe.

The White Lion Tribe had a total of more than one hundred people. They had attacked the Mad Lion Tribe together with other lion tribes, but they did not keep the orcs from the Mad Lion Tribe who defected to them. Because the tribe had a small number of people, the leader of the White Lion Tribe was worried that he would be targeted by the Mad Lion Tribe and would not be able to defeat them, so he acted cautiously.

The leader of the White Lion Tribe is called Shi Lin. Last time he came here to retrieve the cubs, and this time he came to deliver the cubs. He looked a little cautious. In fact, as members of the same lion tribe, it would be better for them to go to the Yellow Lion Tribe for help. But because they are more familiar with the situation and know the situations of several surrounding lion tribes, the situations of other tribes may be better than theirs, but definitely not much better.

Just when Shi Lin was worrying about the tribe, he suddenly heard that the Snow Rabbit Tribe had enough food. After much thought, he decided that sending the cubs to the Snow Rabbit Tribe was the best decision. Shi Lin also felt more at ease after seeing the living environment of the Snow Rabbit Tribe cubs.

The plan was good, but it still needed the consent of the Snow Rabbit Tribe. Shi Lin had met Bai Tu and knew that Bai Tu liked cubs, so he made up his mind and cleaned all the cubs in the tribe and sent them directly to the door.

Even though Bai Tu has come into contact with a lot of people recently, this is the first time he has seen such a situation. To be honest, there are quite a few little lions in the tribe now. Not to mention those brought from the Red Eagle Tribe, there are more than twenty born from the orcs of the Crazy Lion Tribe alone.

But as the name of the White Lion Tribe suggests, the lions in their tribe are basically white, including the cubs.

A dozen white furry little lions were brought to his eyes, lying down to be stroked, and at most they would just cry softly. No matter whether others could hold back or not, Bai Tu couldn’t.

Shi Lin’s method was indeed effective. Not only Bai Tu, who had always liked the cub, but even the orcs in the tribe who were indifferent to the cub did not refuse. Bai Tu and Bai An discussed it and agreed to help take care of the cub, but there were some things they had to make clear before taking care of it.

The probability of cubs dying is high. Even if the cubs of the Snow Rabbit Tribe are safe recently, there is no guarantee that the cubs of the White Lion Tribe will always be safe.

In fact, after taking care of them for most of the winter, the entire tribe has more experience in taking care of cubs than before. The cubs of the White Lion tribe are just thin, and only two are sick. The possibility of death is not high, but it is always better to speak out in advance, in case the cubs get sick, the other party will think they are not careful enough.

The cubs might get sick if their parents take care of them personally, plus two of the cubs were already a little wilted. Shi Lin certainly wouldn’t ask the Snow Rabbit Tribe to take good care of all the cubs. After hearing Bai Tu’s words, he nodded in agreement, indicating that he understood the truth and expressed his own thoughts: “As long as the cub is taken care of together with other cubs, there are no other requirements.”

They just hope that the cubs don’t have to eat only animal skins and bones like adults, and have a warm place and enough food. As long as these two conditions are met, everyone will be satisfied and have no right to raise other conditions. Even so, the White Lion Tribe is still worried that Bai Tu will refuse.

Fortunately, Bai Tu didn’t make them wait too long. After checking the cubs and making sure that the two had just caught a cold due to the change in temperature, he asked to keep the cubs.

Shi Lin was relieved to hear the affirmative answer. He left the cub behind and said goodbye without making any excessive demands, for fear that Bai Tu would go back on his word. Bai Tu and Lang Qi discussed it and decided to give each other a few baskets of corn from the Blood Wolf Tribe. At this time, even boiled vegetables can be eaten, let alone food. When the lion left, there was wind under his feet and he was so happy that he wanted to roar a few times.

Taking care of one cub is also taking care of it, and taking care of ten cubs is also taking care of it. There are many cubs in the tribe, and there are also many orcs assigned to take care of the cubs. The extra cubs are distributed to less than one person on average, and the work has not changed much.

Moreover, after so long, everyone is no longer as cautious in taking care of the cubs as they were at the beginning, not daring to move or hold them. Not only have they become more adept at it, but tasks such as feeding the cubs and bathing them have also become much faster. The first time, when one person took care of several cubs, they were in a rush, but now, one person can take care of a dozen with ease.

The two sick cubs were treated the same way as all the other sick cubs in the tribe were treated in the past: they were separated and made to live in a separate cave, cared for by one orc.

Bai Tu knew that diseases such as colds and fevers were easily contagious, especially colds, which could cause widespread problems. He specifically instructed the orcs who were taking care of the two cubs not to go to other caves until the cubs recovered to prevent infection.

The common cold is not a big deal, but it is not a small one either. Some people get better after a good night’s sleep, while others take medicine and get injections for a week but still see no effect. The cub didn’t recover in one day, but its physical condition was good. After three days in a solitary cave, it was basically fully recovered. It was much more energetic than in the previous few days, and had a better appetite for food, with its food intake doubled.

Bai Tu waited for another two days and only agreed to send the two cubs to the collective cave after making sure that they were fine.

The cubs had just been arranged and Bai Tu had not yet left the cave when Bai Qi, who was on patrol, suddenly ran over to him with a serious expression.

“What’s wrong?” Bai Qi is still in charge of the patrol area. Bai Tu is puzzled. Could it be that another tribe came to borrow food? They did think about this after lending food to the Flower Deer Tribe and the Yellow Lion and White Lion Tribe, but one cannot throw the food away because of choking. They also cannot guard the food and watch people starve to death in front of them just because they are afraid that other tribes will come to borrow food.

If the Snow Rabbit Tribe was still the small tribe it was before, even if Bai An agreed to lend food, Bai Tu would have to consider whether it was safe. But now the Snow Rabbit Tribe is completely different from it was a year ago. They have more tools and more people, and the tribes that borrowed food are all tight-lipped. Both Bai Tu and Bai An feel more at ease.

Bai Tu began to wonder which other tribes around had better relations with the Snow Rabbit Tribe.

Bai Qi’s next words interrupted his thoughts.

“It’s the Black Mane Tribe. They said they want to look for their cubs. Last year, there were cubs from their tribe that were taken away by the Red Eagle Tribe.” Bai Qi said while panting. He had run all the way here, so he was not tired, but his throat was a little sore from the cold wind.

“What?” Bai Tu suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Bai Qi repeated what he had just said, feeling speechless.

The Black-haired Tribe sent the cubs of their tribe away, and in early winter they wanted to use the cubs as an excuse to attack the Snow Rabbit Tribe, but they were beaten back. Now winter is not over yet, and the Black-haired Tribe, whose injuries have healed, has forgotten the pain and is planning to come over to ask for the cubs under another excuse.

Bai Tu was silent for a moment. It had been almost a year since he came to the Beast God Continent, but this was the first time he had seen such shameless people. They seemed to have forgotten about being beaten before, and as if they had collective amnesia, they chose to use the cubs as an excuse again.

It would be strange if Bai Tu could give the cubs to them. In the minds of Shi Wu and others, the cubs were just tools that they could use. If they were useful, they would use them, and if they were useless, they would ignore their lives.

If they cared about the cubs, they would not wait until the cubs spent a winter in the Snow Rabbit Tribe before mentioning taking the cubs back. Before attacking the Snow Rabbit Tribe, they did not think about what would happen to the cubs if a fight really broke out.

You should know that the Yellow Lion Tribe and the White Lion Tribe came to us as soon as they heard the news, and brought over all the orcs who had lost their cubs. In order to allay their concerns, they didn’t even bring members of the hunting team. This attitude shows that they truly want to get the cubs back.

Putting these things aside, it’s not like they didn’t know that the Black Mane Tribe had voluntarily sent their cubs away before. Why are they pretending to be victims now? Do they think that everyone else except them is a fool and has no memory of what happened before?

In fact, although Shi Wu is arrogant, he is not to the point of treating everyone as fools. The reason he came here is because he heard the news that the Snow Rabbit Tribe has sufficient food.

Among the surrounding tribes, except for the Rabbit Tribe and the Wolf Tribe who made preparations early, the situation of other tribes was not very good. They could still hold on in the early winter. After all, no matter how bad the situation was, they would store some food before winter. However, as time went by, the food in the tribe became less and less. Even if they were frugal, it would not be enough in the last period of time.

Orcs have strong recovery abilities, and one winter was enough for the Black Haired Tribe to heal their wounds. In addition, the tribe already had medicines, so not many members were lost in the end. Of course, if they had not been captured that time, the losses would have been even less.

It seems that there is not enough food. Just then, he heard that many people in the Snow Rabbit Tribe had gained weight, so Shi Wu immediately turned his attention to the Snow Rabbit Tribe.

The reason he lost last time before winter was that he didn’t inquire well. This time, Shi Wu made special inquiries for a few days to make sure that both the fact that the Snow Rabbit Tribe had plenty of food and the people in the tribe couldn’t run because they ate too much were true.

He would dare to take action even if he knew only one of the two pieces of news, let alone both. More food means it is worth snatching, and the rabbits are fat and can’t run anymore, which means their combat effectiveness is reduced. Either one is good news.

Because of the last defeat, many people in the tribe had opinions about him. Shi Wu urgently needed this opportunity to prove himself again. After confirming again and again that the news was true, he led his tribesmen to prepare without hesitation.

The orcs of the Black Haired Tribe had been hungry for most of the winter. They did not have enough food every day and could only eat half full at most. In the past, they did not think much of it because everyone was the same. But this year, when they heard that the weaker rabbits from the Snow Rabbit Tribe could eat meat at will, they became jealous.

Therefore, when Shi Wu’s plan was made known, there was almost unanimous response. Except for a few orcs in the Black Haired Tribe who did not agree with invading other tribes at will, the other orcs in the Black Haired Tribe were eager to take the food of the Snow Rabbit Tribe for themselves immediately.

A group of people were rubbing their hands in anticipation, eating the barbecue that could barely fill their stomachs with indignation, because before winter they were busy competing with other tribes for the territory of the Mad Lion Tribe, which resulted in a lot of food in the tribe not being properly processed. At that time, the temperature was not as low as it is now, and the taste of the prey had changed after a few days. Even after being roasted later, the faint stench on the food could not be covered up.

Lions don’t like to eat meat that has gone bad. Even though there are fewer prey, there seems to be a lot of accumulated food, so they think it’s enough to eat. Naturally, they pick the ones that taste good first. Now only these that are hard to eat are left. I have to eat it because it’s the only one I have. If I don’t eat it, I can only eat animal skins.

Although animal skins are also stripped from prey, if they taste good, they would not be used only to keep warm. Not only will they scratch your throat after being cooked, but they are also difficult to chew. They are even worse than stale food.

They either had to eat flavorful meat or unpalatable animal skins and bone soup with little meat. There was simply no better choice. The lion tribe felt miserable while eating their food and thought they should steal food from the Snow Rabbit Tribe.

Shi Wu got the approval of most of the orcs in the tribe, and felt that his decision was right. It was icy and snowy, and although some of the ice and snow had melted, the road was still not easy to walk on.

This was good news for them, because the bad road conditions meant that the wolves and leopards would not be able to come to help like last time. For their tribe, defeating the rabbits would not be an easy task.

However, the last incident also had a significant impact on Shi Wu. The biggest change was that he became more cautious. He knew that even without the help of the other two tribes, the Snow Rabbit Tribe now had a lot of people. After all, most of the people from the Crazy Lion Tribe were in the Snow Rabbit Tribe.

The embarrassing thing that happened last time was enough. Shi Wu would never allow himself to make the same mistake again. This time, he brought a particularly large number of people. Except for those who were determined not to come, all the rest of the tribe came.

Before setting off, Shi Wu ordered all the food in the tribe to be cooked and eaten. Anyway, there would be leftover food when they returned, and there would be no use leaving the food there. Now that they were full, they would have just enough energy to fight the Snow Rabbit Tribe.

After all, they had been hungry for a long time, and the food smelled bad, but it was just so-so when they ate it. The orcs, who could only eat one piece of meat a day, ate it with their stomachs opened. In addition, this was public food of the tribe, and eating more or less would not affect their personal food. Even the orcs with small appetites could not help but eat more, and stopped only when they could hardly walk.

A group of well-fed lions rushed to the territory of the Snow Rabbit Tribe and happened to see Bai Qi on patrol. They told Bai Qi that they wanted to take back the tribe’s cubs.

Just like Bai Tu said, the cubs were just an excuse. Shi Wu planned to ask several lions to remember the route when they went to the Snow Rabbit Tribe to find his cubs. Wait until they bring the cubs out, and the others will follow them into the Snow Rabbit Tribe. The weather is too cold, and they will definitely not be able to find food without a guide.

Lion Five also had another purpose to lower the Snow Rabbit Tribe’s vigilance. After all, they said that they would not fight as long as the cubs were brought out.

The Snow Rabbit Tribe must have thought that they really only wanted the cubs, Shi Wu thought proudly. Last time his plan went wrong and his attitude was too fierce, which caused the Snow Rabbit Tribe to become alert. His method was wrong. He should have entered the Snow Rabbit Tribe first like the Yellow Lion Tribe and the White Lion Tribe did.

As long as someone goes in and masters the route and the location where the food is stored, the food of the Snow Rabbit Tribe will be theirs. The more Shi Wu thought about it, the more beautiful it seemed, and he almost laughed.

However, he soon stopped laughing. A lion next to him held his stomach and said that his stomach hurt and he needed to rest.

Shi Wu treated his confidant quite well. When he heard that the other party was not feeling well, he waved his hand and let him go. On the one hand, he was still waiting for Bai Qi to get a reply and bring a few orcs in to recognize the cubs. It would take at least half a day before attacking the Snow Rabbit Tribe. On the other hand, the number of people he brought was large, so one person’s rest would not affect anything at all. The Snow Rabbit Tribe would not count the number of people attacking them, as they were still one short of four hundred.

The more Shi Wu looked at the people behind him, the more satisfied he became. The last time they came here, they were unable to defeat the wolf and leopard tribes because they were outnumbered. With so many people here this time, we will definitely win.

The smug Shi Wu was just happy for a while when he heard someone say that he had a stomachache.

His relationship with this man was not as good as the last lion who was uncomfortable, but it was not bad either. Lion Five, who was in a good mood, did not bother with him and waved his hand to let him find a place to rest.

As soon as he left, another person came over. Again and again, people came to disturb him as he imagined his life after getting food from the Snow Rabbit Tribe. The smile on Shi Wu’s face gradually disappeared.

As for the third person, Shi Wu’s expression became a little unhappy, but he still let him go to the back.

He was feeling bad when more people came over. Shi Wu suddenly felt that he was deceived by these orcs. They said that they would not be afraid as long as they attacked the Snow Rabbit Tribe, and that they would attack together. But now no one has even entered yet, and he started hiding.

Thinking that this group of people must not trust him because of their loss last time, Lion Five was furious: “Don’t think about being lazy! You’ve eaten all the food and now you want to be lazy! Dream on! Either wait or catch a prey, otherwise don’t enter the Black Mane Tribe!”

This was serious enough no matter how you put it. Usually, prey would appear some time after the end of winter. Now there was still a month left in winter. Even if he wanted to, he couldn’t catch prey. If he didn’t enter the tribe, he would be expelled from the tribe. Even the powerful Lion Tribe didn’t dare to say that he could survive outside alone. The orc who said he was uncomfortable was scared and trembled, afraid that Lion Five would really drive him out of the tribe. He could only endure the discomfort and wait where he was.

When the other orcs saw that he was being scolded, they didn’t dare to say that their stomachs seemed to hurt a little. In order not to anger Lion Five, they could only hold on.

After hearing what Bai Tu said, he immediately made preparations and asked people to take the cubs to a safer place underground. In fact, even if a fight broke out, it would never reach here. However, many orcs, especially lion orcs, have a habit of roaring when fighting. The harder the fight, the louder the roar, which can intimidate the opponent to a certain extent.

These methods are no longer as effective as before against the rabbits, wolves, and leopards that have fought with the lions several times, but they will scare the cubs.

The voices of adult orcs can travel over a wide distance, and by that time, it’s likely that not only the lions will make sounds, but the wolves will certainly make sounds as well. For the health of the cubs, it’s better to move underground.

After instructing the orcs to take care of the cubs, Bai Tu found Lang Qi again and called a few fast-footed wolves and rabbits to go find Shi Su and Shi Lin. At the same time, he notified Lang Ze. The wolf tribe was farther away, and even if they rushed to the Black Mane Tribe at the fastest speed, it would take half a day, while the two lion tribes that were closer would need less time.

While notifying several tribes, the orcs of the Snow Rabbit Tribe were not idle either. They could not rely on other tribes for help in all matters. In addition, the food was so good for the winter, and the group of people did not want to be looked down upon.

Bai Tu knew that there was still some gap in size between the Rabbit Tribe and orcs of other races, but they were not bound to lose, so he prepared weapons.

During the winter, all the mines and brick and iron smelting operations were busy. Almost all the iron ore that Heixiao had delivered in previous times was used up, and the number of finished products was also very gratifying.

There is simply not enough need for so many farm tools, so Bai Tu modified several weapons that are more convenient to use. For example, the pointed sticks that people used to catch prey had the sharp front end made of iron after the modification. Not only is it sharper, it will not break easily and has greater lethality.

Another example is a dagger. Even if it is sharp, its length is limited. Bai Tu extended it on the original basis, and it instantly turned from a weapon of average lethality into a very dangerous weapon.

There are several similar adjustments, even tools such as shovels intended to be used as farm tools can be used as weapons.

As for the more advanced ones, Bai Tu has not had time to study them. Even so, they are more than enough to defeat the Black Hair Tribe. He just wants to minimize the casualties on his side by sending more people. The probability of getting injured in a one-on-one fight is high, while in a multi-on-one fight, he can basically avoid getting injured.

The Black Hair Tribe had already reached the edge of the territory. Bai An and the others did not waste any time. After gathering everyone, they went straight over with weapons. In any case, they must not let them enter the Snow Rabbit Tribe’s territory.

This involves a question of tribal capabilities. If the Black Hair Tribe is allowed to easily step into their territory, it means that the Snow Rabbit Tribe will be defeated without a fight. Even if they drive the other side out later, it will leave people with the impression that their defense is not good enough. Once this news spreads, countless tribes will try it out.

There are more than just these familiar tribes bordering the area. Some of the tribes are not far away. If a tribe really comes in, what the tribe is doing now will be easily discovered.

In short, they must kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, to let the Black-haired Tribe and other tribes that are eyeing the Snow Rabbit Tribe know that the Snow Rabbit Tribe is no longer the same as before, that they can hold on to the food even if they have a lot of it, and that they should not make any small calculations.

In the past, Bai An would let Bai Tu stay in the tribe when something like this happened, and this time was no exception. But this time Bai Tu didn’t want to stay in the tribe. It had been so long, and he hadn’t seen what the black-haired tribal leader who had provoked the tribe again and again looked like.

There is another reason. Lang Qi will also go there this time. Even though it has been some time since Lang Qi recovered, he has never fought with other orcs before. Bai Tu would feel uneasy if he didn’t watch it personally.

When they go out, they will have to trouble Tu Bing to help look after the cubs. Originally, Tu Cai should have taken care of the cubs, but now all the cubs are arranged by Tu Cai. The transfer of more than 200 cubs is not a small matter. Even if the cubs have been taken care of for a long time, they will still be scared if they are moved rashly.

Tu Bing, who has her own cubs and does not need much care, is a very suitable choice. Her two cubs are too young and still sleep most of the time. Helping to take care of a few more cubs will also make them busy. The main thing is that the three little wolves are like the two little rabbits, sleeping twenty hours a day, and the remaining four hours are spent half eating and half looking for their father.

The two older cubs need special care. The human-shaped cubs and the beast-shaped cubs move at different speeds and have different ways of escaping. Bai Tu directly asked Lang Qi to move the fence down. After several reinforcements and modifications, the fence can ensure that no animal or human can get out.

After everything was arranged within the tribe, Bai Tu hurried to the edge of the territory with confidence. The orcs following him all had stern expressions and held their weapons tightly.

But when a group of people arrived at the junction of the territories, the atmosphere was not right.

Bai Tu looked at Bai Qi with a puzzled look on his face.

Are those orcs lying and rolling on the ground from the Black Haired Tribe?

Bai Qi was also confused for a moment. After all, when he was patrolling here just now, a group of lions looked ferocious and ferocious, as if they couldn’t wait to attack the Snow Rabbit Tribe. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so anxious to find Bai Tu.

But now the Black Hair Tribe is like frost-bitten chicks, each of them listless and howling while holding their stomachs.

There are many kinds of orc calls. Generally, orcs from different tribes can only distinguish emotions, while orcs from the same tribe can read clearer meanings.

Beastmen in human form rarely scream out loud. Most of them just say it, which is more intuitive. They will only scream out loud when their emotions really reach a certain level and they don’t have time to transform into beast form.

And now, half of the orcs from the Black Haired Tribe in front of him were howling in pain, while the other half did not speak, but also covered their stomachs.

Bai Qi looked at the Lion Tribe, then at Bai Tu, and explained: “I didn’t lie!” He really didn’t lie. The Black Haired Tribe just now was indeed scary, completely different from the one in front of him.

Bai Tu nodded. He certainly didn’t think that Bai Qi would spread the news randomly, but the behavior of these lions was somewhat intriguing.

If they pretended to be sick to lower their defenses and then attack, then these people’s acting skills are too good. I broke out in a cold sweat.

A gust of wind blew by, and a stench of corruption that was difficult to describe in words came. Bai Tu covered his nose and listened to the voices of the lions not far away, and seemed to understand what was going on.

Bai Tu didn’t want to get close to the other party, so he patted Bai Qi’s shoulder, cut off two small pieces of animal skin from his body, asked the other party to plug his nose, and said: “Go and ask them what they ate today.”

Bai Qi was very suitable to ask questions. He was the fastest orc in the tribe, and his speed of running at full speed was even faster than Langze. If he went to ask questions, even if the lion tribe was deliberately disguised, he could run back quickly.

Bai Qi walked to a few steps away from the Black-Burned Tribe, and after making sure that there were no orcs ambushing in the surrounding grass, he said, “What did you eat today?”

Shi Wu covered his stomach, feeling that the other party was mocking him. After all, he had already heard that the Snow Rabbit Tribe had plenty of food, but the Black-Burned Tribe did not have enough food. Bai Qi, as the youngest son of the Snow Rabbit Tribe’s leader, came over to ask them what they were eating. This was nothing but a mockery.

Shi Wu stared at Bai Qi fiercely, regretting that he could not jump up and bite the other person to death: “What our tribe eats is none of your business?”

Shi Wu was angry, upset and hurt. The orcs behind him said one after another that they had stomachaches and were uncomfortable. He thought these people wanted to be lazy, so he got angry directly. As expected, no one complained of discomfort afterwards.

In fact, the uncomfortable feeling did not disappear, it was just that what Lion Five said was too serious. Between enduring it and leaving the tribe, everyone would definitely choose to endure it. It was better to endure the pain than be kicked out of the tribe by Lion Five afterwards. The current weather means it’s a dead end to be outside the tribe. Staying in the tribe at least guarantees survival and has hot water to drink. Outside the tribe, even making a fire is a problem, and it’s good enough to be able to survive one night.

However, some pains cannot be endured by just enduring them. The group of people soon found that their stomachs were hurting more and more, but they didn’t dare to say anything and just endured it until someone couldn’t help but vomit.

Food is a precious commodity, and there are people who waste it like this. Shi Wu was furious. Since he didn’t wait for Bai Qi to come back, he kicked the lion directly.

Just this one kick caused the orc, who was already unable to bear the pain, to faint. Seeing this scene, the other orcs with stomachaches didn’t want to hold on any longer and directly said that they were in pain and couldn’t fight today.

If it was just a few people, then it would probably be due to one’s own carelessness, but when so many people are hurt, a group of people suddenly feel that it’s not their fault, so they have to blame it on the tribe.

The lion tribe member next to the unconscious orc whispered: “Could it be that the Lord Beast God does not allow us to attack the Snow Rabbit Tribe?”

They had fought other tribes before, and they had besieged the Mad Lion Tribe last year, but this situation had never happened. A large number of people had stomachaches. The orcs who encountered this kind of thing for the first time naturally thought of another level. It must be that their attack on the Snow Rabbit Tribe angered the Lord Beast God, causing him to punish them.

Shi Wu disagrees with this statement. He is the leader of this action and he asked people to come here. If he admits that it was the Lord Beast God who disagreed, doesn’t it mean that his behavior was wrong? Once this happens, his prestige in the tribe will only get lower and lower. Shi Wu does not want to give up the position of leader to others. After the previous leader gave up the position to him, life in the tribe is far worse than before. The orcs will please the leader, but they will not please the previous leader.

Shi Wu didn’t want to give up his position so early and insisted that he had done nothing wrong. However, he didn’t keep his mouth shut for long before he found that his stomach was aching. At first it was a slight pain, but he could still bear it. Later it became intermittent and he could barely hide it. Finally, the pain was continuous and he could no longer hide it.

In fact, no one paid attention to him at that time, because most people were lying or crawling on the ground in pain, and no one had the extra energy to care about others.

Bai An, Bai Tu and others came over at this time. Shi Wu did not admit that he was wrong. He was particularly angry when he heard Bai Qi’s words and cursed the useless orcs around him.

The others just kept cursing and did not move. Under normal circumstances, they would have attacked the rabbit tribe to please the leader, but now they did not have time to cover their stomachs, and they were afraid that the Lord Beast God would punish them more severely if they attacked people. They ignored Shi Wu’s curses and did not intend to attack. A few orcs who did not believe in this wanted to attack, but they had no strength at all. They stood up and before they could finish a word their stomachs started to hurt again. They did not even have the strength to change into beast form, let alone attack people.

Since Lion Five refused to cooperate, Bai Qi did not plan to continue asking him. He looked at the lions next to him, thinking that if Lion Five didn’t say anything, he would definitely have something to say. Before he could ask, a thin orc not far from Lion Five spoke.

“We…we have eaten up all the food stored in the tribe…”

“Nonsense! We haven’t finished it!” Shi Wu felt that Bai Qi deliberately asked them to say this, wanting them to admit that their tribe had no food. The damn rabbit tribe, they clearly did nothing, but actually deliberately ridiculed and mocked them.

“How much did you eat?” Bai Qi had seen Bai Tu treating other orcs and knew that one question was far from enough.

“Three big pieces.” The skinny lion measured the meat. Each of the three pieces was more than what he had eaten before. Originally, he didn’t plan to come over, but Lion Five said that the orcs who followed him could eat as much meat as they wanted today. He couldn’t resist the temptation and ate three big pieces. He came over burping and was the first to have a stomachache. It was just that it was his turn and Lion Five didn’t let him rest, so he endured it until now.

“When do we eat… Forget it, I’ll take you there.” Bai Qi originally wanted to ask something, but halfway through he felt that the question he asked might not be what Bai Tu wanted to ask, so he directly grabbed the person and went to find Bai Tu. Anyway, the lion tribe now didn’t have the strength to fight back.

The lion tribe member was a little scared after being caught, but later he found out that Bai Qi just dragged him to the rabbit tribe and didn’t beat anyone, so he immediately felt relieved.

Bai Qi told Bai Tu the two questions he had asked.

Bai Tu nodded and looked down at the lion who had to squat on the ground because of abdominal pain: “What did you eat this morning? How long have the foods been stored? Did they taste different? For example, smelly or sour.”

The lion was originally listening to his questions, but when he heard the last part, shock gradually appeared on his face, with an expression of how did you know.

Bai Tu knew what was going on without hearing the answer: this group of people had food poisoning.

Food poisoning is not easy to deal with. Now there are only herbs, and the quantity of herbs is not much. Even if he makes medicine, it may only be enough for a few people. More importantly, he does not want to waste herbs to save the orcs of the Black Mane Tribe. Baitu’s goal is to take revenge and complain. Shi Wu was planning to attack their tribe half a day ago.

Not to mention the fact that they came to pick up the cubs. Even if the few lions left in the tribe were from the Black Mane Tribe, they would not need hundreds of people to come. Moreover, he had known for a long time that the mother of those cubs was an orc who was locked up by them just like Shi Ning. He didn’t seem to feel sorry when they sent them away, so why does he feel sorry now? Langze wouldn’t believe such words.

Bai Tu asked Bai Qi and several members of the patrol team to count the number of the other side, and he walked up to Shi Wu and said, “I can save you, but I want all the salt from your tribe, and you have to work for the Snow Rabbit Tribe in the future.”

“You’re dreaming!” Shi Wu refused to admit his mistake for the position of leader. What’s more, Bai Tu said that they would become a subsidiary tribe of the Snow Rabbit Tribe in the future, which was more painful than killing him.

He came here today just to attack the Snow Rabbit Tribe, but ended up shooting himself in the foot. The Snow Rabbit Tribe was not hurt at all and they were just lying here howling. Shi Wu became more and more angry as he thought about it. Seeing that there was only Lang Qi by Bai Tu’s side, he used up his last bit of strength to transform into a beast, hoping to make Bai Tu his own ghost.

The moment Shi Wu moved, Lang Qi, who was guarding Bai Tu, moved faster than him. He transformed into a beast and pounced on Shi Wu, using his claws to cut a deep wound on his neck that was visible to the bone.

“Roar——” Shi Wu couldn’t tell whether his stomach or his neck hurt more, and he felt more unbelievable.

The two most important ways of attacking orcs in a fight are biting and scratching, but as we all know, bites are fatal, unless the size difference is large enough, otherwise scratches are just a drizzle. Wolves, on the other hand, prefer to attack their opponents with devastating bites, and their claws are more often used to immobilize the opponent.

The wolves could kill him with just their claws. Fear flashed in Shi Wu’s eyes. He realized for the first time how huge the gap was between himself and his opponents.

Bai Tu didn’t expect that Lang Qi almost killed Shi Wu with one claw. The scratches on Shi Hong’s body when he fought with Lang Qi last time were definitely not so deep.

Bai Tu couldn’t help but think of a possibility.

Beastiality may not be all bad.
