Building a Civilization and Raising Cubs in the Beast World – Chapter 128

Chapter 128

Bai Tu was shocked by Xiong Liao’s train of thought.

Not only are the two people not on the same channel, they are even more than a million miles apart. This kind of self-confidence is worthy of admiration, but not worth learning.

Bai Tu was silent for a moment and said, “Is there a possibility that when he said leaving, he meant leaving forever?” No wonder he was not in a hurry at all and was so cheerful yesterday, but now he remembered to look for someone. According to the speed of the Eagle Tribe, they are probably almost at the tribe now.

“How is that possible!” Xiong Liao retorted to Bai Tu reflexively, “Mian will definitely come back, he will, he will not leave the team…” But his voice became lower and lower at the end. In the past, Ying Mian would have come back at this time, but he has not been seen today. Could it be that, as Bai Tu said, he really left forever?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Xiong Liu immediately shook his head: “No! Ying Mian will definitely come back to find me!”

Bai Tu: “…”

Forget it, hints will never work, Bai Tu directly told the other party the answer: “Ying Mian has returned to the tribe first, let’s talk about it after he comes back to exchange salt.” He doubted that if he didn’t tell him where he was going, Xiong Liu would wait here forever.

“Why does Mian want to go back to the tribe? I’m here.” Xiong Liu couldn’t understand why the two of them came out together, and Ying Mian had to go back halfway.

“Maybe something happened.” Both hatching eggs and raising cubs are important matters. It is not good to publicize them before they are successful. If you say it and the cubs are not born successfully, the psychological gap will be particularly large.

Now no one knows what the situation is on Yingmian’s side, and Bai Tu has no way to say it. He can only give a vague explanation: “The tribe is safer, wouldn’t it be better to let him stay in the tribe?” For Yingmian, the tribe is definitely safer. He doesn’t have to worry about encountering orcs who want to steal supplies, nor does he have to worry about accidentally touching eggs while traveling.

The unhatched cubs are more fragile than these cubs that can already cry. If the yolk is shaken loose, they will never hatch. Bai Tu felt a little scared when he thought that Ying Mian had been walking with the cubs for two days.

“But I can’t protect him if Mian returns to the tribe.” Xiong Liu felt that it was safest for him to stay with him.

“Don’t think about why Mian went back. Go and see the tribe first. You’ll know the reason when you come back from exchanging salt.” It would be better to let the young couple explain the problems themselves. What Bai Tu can guess now is that the two of them have completely different positions. As for the misunderstanding and the reason for the misunderstanding, Bai Tu shook his head silently and couldn’t understand.

Xiong Liao was still a little bit unconvinced until two bear tribe members told him that they saw Ying Mian and an eagle tribe member flying back. He had no choice but to believe it.

But Xiong Liu grasped another key point: “Why go with the Eagle Tribe?” Why is his partner with other Eagle Tribes?

“Mian didn’t know the way, so the Eagle Tribe helped lead the way.” Bai Tu explained helplessly.

“That can’t be the Eagle Tribe…” Xiong Liu whispered. Seeing Lang Qi coming back with food, he scratched his head, “Forget it, I can’t bully you.” He almost forgot that Bai Tu also had a partner. If he scared the person to tears, Lang Qi would definitely fight with him.

Bai Tu: “…” Forget it, he’s just a fool who doesn’t even know he ran away with his wife.

Lang Qi walked to Bai Tu and glanced at Xiong Liu’s back: “What is he doing here?”

“To ask why Ying Mian didn’t come back.”

Lang Qi: “?”

Bai Tu explained: “He thought Ying Mian went out for a walk last night and would come back.” He was confused when he didn’t see anyone in the morning.

Lang Qi was silent for a moment. He had already let his partner run away, so what else could he do?

Even Chinese medicine would hold on to his partner tightly. Lang Qi looked down upon a certain bear clan, and fed the cubs with Bai Tu as if nothing had happened.

Bai Tu did not waste his energy on Xiong Liu. He lowered his head to check the cubs’ food, and while looking, he muttered to Lang Qi, “I feel the cubs have gained weight again.”

The duration of the growth period of cubs around three years old varies. Some cubs can increase their weight several times during this period, while some cubs have no change from when they were younger. Although there is no fixed standard, the greater the growth rate, the stronger the body, and they are less likely to get injured whether they are playing when they are young or practicing hunting skills.

“Yes, they are heavier.” Lang Qi nodded and took out the two big ones. “Their appetites have also increased.” All the food made for Bai Tu yesterday was eaten by these two.

Bai Tu also agreed that the cubs’ appetites had increased. Previously, these two of them ate about twice as much as the other three, but now they have to eat half as much.

With many cubs to take care of, Bai Tu knows that this is just the beginning. Next, the cubs’ appetite will continue to grow, and it will reach its peak when they are in their teens. Orcs around adulthood often eat more than orcs in their prime, and they cry out for hunger right after eating. You can refer to Langze for specific situations. Thinking of Langze, Bai Tu seems to have seen the future of the cubs.

Looking down at the cub, Bai Tu couldn’t help but sigh.

Lang Qi looked at him, questioning with his eyes.

Bai Tu shook his head: “Nothing, I just miss the tribe. Everything should go well.” They had already made arrangements when they went out. Plus, with the relatively stable Bai Chen in the tribe, there shouldn’t be any problems. The orcs in the tribe just have to complete the tasks he gave them on time.

Bai Tu had nothing to worry about with the others, except for Langze’s team. Even though they were told many times, they always found loopholes in the rules. For example, they were not allowed to climb trees to destroy beehives, but a group of little wolves decisively went to the pond and got covered in mud. Later, they were not allowed to go into the pond casually, so the little wolves found a spring on the mountain that no one had ever seen before to play. In short, there were always things they had not told them about.

We can only hope that he will behave himself recently. Bai Tu thought that as long as the orcs in the tribe don’t make any big noise, it will be fine. However, Langze has never been quiet.

When Lang Qi heard Bai Tu mention the tribe, he did not give an answer. The two looked at each other and sighed at the same time. Let’s hope so.

Snow rabbit tribe.

The little wolves who had tasted the soil stared curiously at what they had dug out. The soil was not only bitter but also a little salty. The taste was particularly strange, but it was certain that it was not the clay needed to make bricks.

“Boss, what should we do?” a little wolf asked Langze.

Langze also wanted to ask what to do. If it were under normal circumstances, he would definitely ask Bai Tu to come and take a look at this kind of soil, but now Bai Tu is not here, Lang Qi is not here either, and even Bai An has set off with the team.

Langze rolled his eyes and waved his hand: “Cover it again!”

“Why do we have to cover it?” The little wolves were reluctant to cover it again after digging so deep.

It’s such a large area, it would be nice to keep it for fun.

“If I say build it, build it!” Langze kicked the other person, “What if someone else poaches it?” He hasn’t figured out what this is yet, and he must not let anyone else poach it.

The little wolf next to him nodded quickly and said, “Yes, if they are dug up, the salt-exchanging team won’t be able to see them when they come back.”

The little wolves, who knew how to share, quickly changed into their animal forms and began to fill the soil again.

Langze grabbed a handful, put it in an animal skin, and after returning to the tribe, he placed it on the door of the cave where Bai Tu and Lang Qi lived.

Bai Tu and Lang Qi both went to the market. No one was watching the cave, and Lang Qi was afraid that someone would go in, so he sealed the entrance with a stone, leaving only a section at the top for ventilation.

After putting it away, Langze clapped his hands and happily went down the mountain to eat.

There is delicious food again today!

The advantage of a large team is that it is safe enough. With a team of more than 400 people, not to mention wandering orcs, even the salt-exchanging team of a large tribe would not dare to provoke them.

But the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is not easy to manage. Although you can release one sheep or a flock of sheep, the energy consumed in releasing one sheep and a flock of sheep is different. After all, not all sheep will walk in the same direction.

Even though the leaders of each tribe followed, some orcs were still slow, and some were attracted by certain scenery on the road and became distracted or stopped, and needed to be reminded by the orcs walking at the end of the team.

If the person walking at the end happens to be distracted and falls away from the team, he will have to wait until the leader counts the number of people during the break and finds that they are wrong before turning back to look for him.

This kind of thing rarely happens in the wolf tribe. Lang Qi is not at the end of the team, but he has sent a few reliable orcs to follow behind. Lang Ya will occasionally go to the back of the team to check the situation.

The number of people from the Rabbit Tribe who came out this time was small, only about 20 to 30 at most. Bai An was very familiar with the orcs in his tribe, so he could tell if there was one missing, and there was no need to wait until the break to count the number of people.

There were not many people from the Leopard Tribe coming out this time, and the most famous feature of the Leopard Tribe was their fast speed. Even if the entire tribe fell behind, they could catch up in less than half a day, and there was no need to worry about getting lost.

Occasionally, people from the Lion and Deer tribes would fall behind, but they would react quickly, and either the orcs in front would go back to look for them, or they would run and catch up after a while.

The only tribe whose painting style is different from theirs is the bear tribe, and the characteristics of the entire tribe are very obvious. When they see something strange nearby, they will lean over to take a look. After looking at it, they will not leave immediately. Sometimes they will gather together to discuss it.

Those who do not participate in the discussion will not leave, but will stand aside. While they are here, their thoughts are no longer somewhere else.

Not only the ordinary bears in the team are like this, but even the bears are exactly the same.

Bai Tu can only say that they are worthy of being from the same tribe, and like leader leads like orcs.

Everyone finally understood why the Bear Tribe always left several days earlier than other tribes. If it weren’t for the orcs from other tribes helping to keep an eye on them, based on the Bear Tribe’s speed, they would probably not arrive until two or three days after the market opened.

When Xiong Liu began to come to his senses, he went to check on the tribesmen behind him. Later, he found that he didn’t need to go to check, and the other tribes could call their members over. So he stopped going back and focused on thinking about the problem that had been bothering him.

Why did Yingmian leave the team? Why not stay with him? Even if something happens, can’t we wait until they come back to do it? Why do you want to go back by yourself?

At night, Xiong Liu looked at the moon above his head and missed Ying Mian even more. The last time they were together, the moon was also this round. Although only two days had passed, he felt that a very long time had passed. Thinking that it would take another ten days before he could see Yingmian, Xiong Liu lay on the ground uncomfortably, not even in the mood to eat dinner.

By the time Xiong Liu missed Ying Mian so much that he couldn’t eat, Ying Mian had already returned to the Snow Rabbit Tribe.

This is a tribe completely different from theirs. Neither the previous tribe nor the current White Bear Tribe can compare to the Snow Rabbit Tribe. This can be seen from the food that the orcs in the tribe eat.

When Yingmian arrived, the orcs had just finished breakfast and were coming out of the cafeteria with fruits or snacks. These fruits and snacks are best eaten after a while after the meal, but the orcs who got the food obviously didn’t think so. The food was already in their mouths before they even left the cafeteria.

Yingmian looked at these orcs who had already eaten their fill with a hint of envy in his eyes. The Eagle Tribe joined the White Bear Tribe later. Even though the White Bear Tribe did not abuse the orcs who joined their tribe like some other tribes, what they could give was limited. At most, they could give them some leftovers in return for their help in guarding the house and patrolling in the winter.

Yingmian and Xiong Liao have an unclear relationship. Although Yingmian got more food than others, he still didn’t dare to eat as much as he wanted. His physical strength was not as good as Xiong Liao’s. Now he was already very tired after eating only a little food each time. If he ate more, he would be exhausted to death.

Yingmian could see that there were lions among the orcs leaving the cafeteria in front of him. The lions were in a similar situation to them, and the eagles were even slightly better off. After all, they took the initiative to join the white bear tribe, while the lions were the defeated party.

Since the lions can eat their fill here, then if he works hard, he should be able to fill his stomach too, right? Even though he has not yet seen the sub-beast that Bai Tu mentioned, Yingmian has already begun to look forward to his future life.

When Hei Xiao heard that one of his tribesmen had returned, his first reaction was that Bai Tu had encountered some trouble. Then he realized that a sub-beast had been sent back. He breathed a sigh of relief and went out to see the other party.

Hei Xiao didn’t expect that it was a sub-beast of the Eagle tribe. Although they were not of the same species as the people of the Black Eagle tribe, they were of the same kind after all, and his attitude was much more moderate than that towards other orcs.

“Now the Eagle Clan in our tribe are all using incubators. Bai Tu has hatched chicks with an incubator before, so it should be no problem to hatch Eagle Clan too. Do you want to try it?” Hei Xiao suggested. Sub-beasts are generally small in size, so the chance of a sub-beast hatching five eggs at the same time is very small.

“Let’s try.” Ying Mian agreed. The one in front of him was a sub-beast, and he also had his own eggs. He had more experience than him. In this case, he must listen to the other party.

Hei Xiao immediately called an Eagle who had just finished his meal: “Go and get another incubator.”

The Eagle spread his wings, raised his head and flew away. Soon he brought a brand new incubator and delivered it to the cave where Hei Xiao lived.

Hei Xiao taught Ying Mian step by step how to spread animal skins, how to control the temperature in the incubator through the water temperature, and how to adjust the humidity when it is different… In short, he told the other party all the knowledge that could be used to hatch cubs.

Ying Mian, who had been worried about the future of himself and his cubs, gradually felt at ease. He had arrived at a place that made him feel safe, and even his rest at night was much more comfortable than before.

Unlike Yingmian, Xiong Liu tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep, with Yingmian on his mind.

They stopped and walked along the way, and it took them three days longer than last time to reach the market. However, because they set out early, the market had not yet opened when they arrived.

There are more places to choose from around the market if you arrive early. Maybe because we arrived too early this year, there are only a few tribes parked around the market, but each tribe is very wary of the new orcs.

Seeing so many people in a team, all the tribes, whether they were far away from the market or close to it, looked defensive.

Bai Qi saw a friend he hadn’t seen for a long time, and went over to say hello excitedly, but unexpectedly the other party was very nervous and asked him to step back.

The joy of seeing a friend turned into confusion, and Bai Qi looked puzzled: “Xiong Tuan, I’m Bai Qi.” Bai Qi suspected that the other party no longer recognized him. After all, the previous two times he came to the market, he either didn’t see the other party, or they parted in a hurry after meeting each other.

After figuring this out, Bai Qi scratched his hair and said, “I am Bai Qi from the Snow Rabbit Tribe. We agreed to meet at the next market.”

“I know you are Bai Qi. Now stay away from us.” Xiong Tuan’s tone was okay, but there was still uneasiness in his eyes.

The attitude of the bear tribe member next to him was not so good: “Whether you are Baiqi or Heiqi, get out of our tribe as soon as possible!”

Baiqi was stunned. He knew the other party. He was the brother of Xiong Tuan’s mother. The last time he came to find Xiong Tuan, the other party gave him a piece of meat. Why did his attitude become like this this time?

Bai Tu is discussing the orcs around the market with Lang Qi. The market will start the day after tomorrow, so it is understandable that there are few tribes around, but the orcs in most tribes are very thin, which is a bit abnormal.

The orcs’ body size changes very quickly. After a winter, their size may become twice as large as before, or even half of its original size. Of course, this change refers to lateral growth.

Most people in the Snow Rabbit Tribe and the Blood Wolf Tribe ate better this winter. Although their weight did not increase by two times, on average each person gained several dozen kilograms, and many orcs’ bodies became rounder.

After going through a spring and early summer, the fat everyone gained during the winter has dropped a little, but overall they are still a little fatter than at the end of last winter.

After being used to seeing orcs from the two tribes, the contrast is very obvious when looking at these thinner orcs.

Bai Tu frowned: “I remember that I wasn’t so thin last year.” Last year, the orcs’ fatness and thinness should be similar to that of the bears now. They were not as strong as the bears, but they all had some flesh on their bodies.

Lang Qi glanced at the backpacks that the orcs were guarding and said, “They are all short of food.”

This situation was obviously too abnormal. Bai Tu looked around and said, “Let’s find a place to settle down first.”

After Bai Tu finished speaking, he was about to call Bai An, but saw Bai Qi surrounded by several orcs not far away. He quickly reminded Lang Qi, “Go check on Qi first!”

They had just arrived, and they certainly couldn’t conflict with the tribe that had arrived before. Not to mention how dangerous a fight would be, it would also be bad to leave a bad impression on other tribes that they were looking for trouble as soon as they arrived.

Bai An had just discussed with Shi Su and others to decide which location to choose. When he looked up, he also saw Bai Qi who was surrounded, and immediately walked over.

After all, he was his son, so Bai An was more anxious than others. He almost ran all the way there. But when he got there, he found that it was still a tribe he had known before.

“Chief Xionghe! What are you doing?” Bai An asked loudly. The two tribes had originally gotten along quite well, but now they were treating the Rabbit Orcs like this. Neither Bai Qi nor anyone else should be doing this.

Xiong He, who was called, looked even more defensive: “We have already warned him in advance to stay away from our territory.” If you listen carefully, you can hear that Xiong He’s voice is a little nervous.

This is no longer the Rabbit Tribe that was coming here with other tribes before. Xiong He saw that at least three tribal leaders were talking to Bai An, and Bai An was still in the middle, which proved that their status was the same.

The Black Bear Tribe certainly couldn’t defeat so many orcs, but there was not enough food in the tribe. This was the food they had saved with great difficulty to exchange for salt. Bai Qi wanted to get closer, and he would stop them even if he died.

“Qi just wants to find his friends.” Bai An knew his child very well, and Bai Qi was indeed looking for the Bear Group.

There are few orcs in the rabbit tribe, and it was not easy for rabbit cubs to survive. In the two years when Bai Qi was born, the tribe was colder than usual, and there were only two or three cubs of the same age left. It was even more difficult for Bai Qi to find a playmate of the same age and with a suitable personality.

Later, he met Xiong Tuan. Although they were not in the same tribe, they were of similar age and had similar personalities. Bai Qi regarded Xiong Tuan as the closest person to him besides his relatives. He didn’t catch up with the Bear Group during his previous two visits to the market, so this time Bai Qi started looking forward to it before the team set out.

Unexpectedly, he was turned away as soon as he arrived. Neither the Bear Group nor other orcs in the Black Bear Tribe welcomed him. Bai Qi didn’t mean to ignore them, it’s just that the other party’s attitude changed a little suddenly. Bai Qi, who had never experienced such a thing, was a little confused. In the eyes of the orcs of the Black Bear Tribe, this confusion meant that they were unwilling to go back, so they surrounded him.

Xiong Tuan was extremely anxious, but he was young and had not done as much in the tribe as Bai Qi. He had no way of commanding the orcs in the tribe. He could only anxiously grab a bear who wanted to take action.

Facing Bai An, the leader, Xiong He’s tone was a little better and he was willing to say a few more words: “Our tribe does not welcome orcs from other tribes.” If it were in the past, they would not stop the young orcs in the tribe from going out to play, but now everyone has to protect the few foods, and no one can be lazy, let alone go out to play.

Being close, Bai An could also see that the bear tribe was not in good condition. Even the leader was not full, let alone the others. In this way, we can understand why this group of orcs are so vigilant. It would be the same for them. If there is not much food, they will definitely be more vigilant than usual. Bai Qi did not take the other party’s warning seriously just now, so of course he was surrounded.

The other party expressed their attitude and understood the reason, so Bai An naturally would not say much, but just explained that Bai Qi did not mean it: “Qi has no ill intentions, I will take him away now. I will also give you half a basket of barbecue as an apology.”

No matter what the reason was for Bai Qi to come here, he asked for it by ignoring other people’s warnings and being surrounded. What’s more, the bear tribe has not taken action yet. Barbecue is an apology gift for disturbing them. Bai An also does not want to have a bad relationship with the Black Bear Tribe, with which he used to have a good relationship. If both sides take a step back, the matter will be resolved.

Hearing Bai An’s words, the bear tribe including Xiong He all swallowed their saliva at the same time. Half a basket of meat, even if there were more people, everyone could get a piece.

In order to save food to exchange for salt, they had been eating bones and animal skins for a long time and had almost forgotten what real meat tasted like.

No one would touch the food that was left to exchange for salt, but if it was sent by other tribes, they would eat some.

Perhaps for the sake of the meat, or perhaps because he did not want to offend Bai An, Xiong He said, “Let him go.”

Several orcs who surrounded Bai Qi left Bai Qi, and Xiong Tuan immediately checked on him anxiously, “Qi, are you hurt?” He

came over excitedly to find someone, but was not only rejected, but was also almost caught. Now the tribe had to take out half a basket of food. Bai Qi’s mood had changed from surprise at the beginning to disappointment. He felt that he had been deceived. Looking at Xiong Tuan, he finally did not have the heart to push him away, so he just pulled his arm out of his hand, “None of your business!”

The amount of food in the tribe is fixed. He was almost caught because of his slow reaction just now, which had already caused trouble for the tribe. In exchange for his food, he certainly could not take it from the tribe. He did not have enough food of his own, so his father would definitely save some food for him.

Thinking that because he came to find Xiong Tuan, his father would have to starve with him for the next few days, Bai Qi took a few steps back, turned around and ran. He was wrong. Xiong Tuan didn’t regard him as a good friend at all.

Unable to accept that he had suffered such a huge deception, Bai Qi was depressed for half a day.

Bai Tu and Lang Qi were some distance away from Bai Qi. When they arrived, Bai An had already finished dealing with the matter. The Wolf Tribe and the Black Bear Tribe had no dealings with each other. Bai Tu didn’t even know those people. Seeing that Bai An had resolved the issue, he didn’t say anything.

It was not until everyone had chosen a location to set up camp that Bai Tu saw Bai Qi again. He discovered that not only was he more disappointed than usual, but his eyes were also a little red.

The last time I saw Bai Qi looking so aggrieved was when Bai An scolded him because of Tu Cheng. Bai Tu hurried over and asked, “What happened?”

Was he scared? That shouldn’t be the case. Bai Qi is younger, but he is a member of the patrol team after all. He has seen orcs from all kinds of tribes. He has been walking with white bear orcs who are more ferocious than black bear orcs. How could he be afraid of a few orcs from the black bear tribe?

Bai Tu was just wondering when Bai Qi said dejectedly, “I treat him as a friend, but he doesn’t treat me as a friend.”

“What?” Bai Tu didn’t understand for a moment.

“I went to find Xiong Tuan, but he told me to go. The orcs from his tribe wanted to capture me.” Bai Qi said frustratedly. No matter how decisive he appeared in front of Xiong Tuan, he still felt uncomfortable when he looked back. He had known Xiong Tuan since he was a child. When he was a child, he was not as strong as he is now, but every time he thought about meeting Xiong Tuan, he would insist on walking from the tribe to here.

Bai Qi was always very happy whenever he thought about meeting the Bear Group at the market. Originally it was not his turn to come this time, but he specifically exchanged jobs with others and gave up several hundred points just to be able to see the Bear Group.

“I wouldn’t have come if I had known.” Bai Qi said sullenly. If he hadn’t come this time and didn’t see the Bear Group rejecting him, he wouldn’t be so sad.

“My father exchanged me for food. If I didn’t go, my father wouldn’t have to take those food.” Thinking of this, Bai Qi regretted it even more.

Bai Tu finally understood what was going on, and the friendship was over.

Bai Tu patted Bai Qi on the shoulder: “Okay, I thought it was a big deal. It’s not just that I didn’t come out to play with you. All the people in their tribe are guarding the food there. Wait until they change the salt before you go over. If he still ignores you at that time, you can break up with him.”

After all, he is still young. Although he is an adult, he has not experienced much. He gets very sad when encountering a little thing and ignores some details.

In fact, Bai Tu’s conclusion was the result of observations along the way. It was not just the Black Bear Tribe, but other tribes as well. They were very careful when passing by these orcs, for fear that the other party would misunderstand that they were here to steal food.

The orcs were also very vigilant, worried that they were here to steal food. Only a few orcs who saw the number of baskets on their backs were not on guard.

Bai Tu guessed that there was less food this year, and some tribes had been robbed before. In addition, there were too many people coming here at once, which made the orcs who came here before them more defensive.

Bai Qi rushed over rashly, so it was not surprising that others misunderstood him. It was just a small misunderstanding, so he could just turn around and explain it to the other party after they let down their guard. It is not appropriate to go over and explain now. The other party is on guard. If you go over again and again, it will be more likely to be misunderstood.

As for the food issue that Bai Qi was concerned about, Bai Tu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: ”

So many people have come this time, can I not prepare more food? Don’t say that the tribe leader just came back with half a basket of meat. Even if he used two baskets, you would not be short of food.” Not to mention the extra food, even if they didn’t bring extra, they would not let the father and son stand there and watch others eat. Dozens of kilograms of meat is the ration for two people, but it is not noticeable in the entire tribe. If one person eats one less bite, it will be enough for them to be full.

There are regulations on everyone’s food standards, but they are all human beings, not emotionless machines. Although there are regulations on how many pounds of meat each person can bring per day, that is just an approximate number to make it easier to calculate the food that needs to be brought. It is normal for someone to eat one bite more or one bite less, and no one will specifically test who has exceeded the limit.

Hearing that Bai An didn’t have to starve, Bai Qi felt a little better. He deserved to starve, but it was wrong to make Bai An starve with him.

After being persuaded by Bai Tu for a while, Bai Qi was not as depressed as before. After Bai Tu left, Bai Qi looked in the direction of the Black Bear Tribe not far away. Not wanting to be discovered by others, Bai Qi took a look and quickly looked away.

On the other side, at the Black Bear Tribe, a group of orcs were distributing the food sent by Bai An. Xiong He cut a piece of the tenderest meat and limped to Xiong Tuan: “Eat quickly, and then keep watch.”

Xiong He’s own son died a month ago. The one who was closest to him and strong enough was Xiong Tuan. This time, he brought Xiong Tuan out for a deeper plan besides changing salt. His health was not as good as before, and Xiong Tuan would probably be the next leader. Xiong Tuan needed to familiarize himself with various things on the way to change salt in advance.

The leader is different from ordinary orcs. Ordinary members only need to obey orders, but the leader considers more. For example, suitable locations to stay along the way, how to guard against other tribes after arriving at the market, how to choose a salt-exchanging tribe that has good quality and can exchange more salt…

Xiong He hopes that the Xiong Tuan can be the leader, but the prerequisite is that the other party’s ability is qualified for the position of leader, so while he can still move, he will try his best to teach the other party more principles.

Seeing that the Xiong Tuan was still sad about what happened in the afternoon, Xiong He sat down next to them and said earnestly: “You said you are friends, but there are so many of them together and they brought so much food. It is very likely that they robbed other people’s food. If we don’t guard against them, they will definitely come to steal our food.”

“Have you forgotten the stray orcs we met on the road?” Xiong He pointed to his right leg, where a hole where the bone could be vaguely seen.

On the road, they met a small group of stray orcs. The stray orcs fought desperately, but they had to protect their food and could not use their full strength. During the fight, he was bitten on the leg by a snake.

It was originally just a small bite, but the weather was hot and there was no medicine, so Xiong He could only scrape off the rotten flesh with a knife, but the wound only became more and more serious.

The tribe’s witch doctor left with all the medicines after winter, and Xiong He didn’t know how long he could hold on. He could only use this time to teach Xiong Tuan everything he could.

Hearing Xiong He comparing Bai Qi with those wandering orcs on the road who could only survive by robbing, Xiong Tuan retorted: “You’re talking nonsense, Qi is not that kind of person!” ”

Okay, if you say he’s not, then he’s not.” Xiong He sighed. Xiong Tuan was good in every way except that he was too soft-hearted. This year’s prey was more than half less than in previous years. Bai An’s team had hundreds of orcs. If they relied entirely on themselves, how big a territory would they have to have?

Xiong He shook his head. Xiong Tuan was unwilling to listen to him now. Only after he suffered losses in the future would he know whether his words were true or false.

Without discussing the matter any further, Xiong He handed the meat in his hand forward: “Eat something first.”

“I don’t want to eat.” Xiong Tuan turned his head away. It was all his fault. If he had not been so happy after seeing Bai Qi in the afternoon that he forgot Xiong He’s instructions and pushed Bai Qi out quickly, the tribesmen in the tribe would not have almost hurt Bai Qi, and Bai An would not have to bring food specially.

Xiong Tuan wanted to return the food, but he had no right to touch the food in the tribe. The orcs in the tribe had not had a full meal for a long time, and now everyone was gathered around the half basket of meat.

There was no way to return the food, so Xiong Tuan could only ignore it. Thinking of Bai Qi’s expression when he left, he felt more and more uncomfortable.

It would be great if he could become stronger, the Xiong Tuan thought. If he was stronger, he could catch enough food, and the leader and the tribesmen wouldn’t have to be so cautious, and they wouldn’t catch Bai Qi just because he approached. Even if he was caught, he could make someone release Bai Qi.

It was all because he wasn’t strong enough. Xiong Tuan leaned against the tree uncomfortably and slowly squatted down to the ground. At first I just felt a little stuffy in my chest, but later I felt pain all over my body, both painful and itchy, as if there were countless ants biting my body, or as if I was being scratched by a knife.

The most painful part was my head, as if someone was constantly knocking on it. In a daze, Xiong He’s voice became increasingly blurred, as if it was very far away from me, yet also very close.

There was another person next to them. The bear group looked over and found that it was a stray orc.

It’s all their fault! If the stray orcs hadn’t ambushed their tribe, they wouldn’t have had so little food. If they hadn’t met the stray orcs again on the road, Xiong He wouldn’t have been injured, and he wouldn’t have gotten nervous when he saw people.

Kill him! Kill the stray orcs! The bear group pounced forward and seemed to hear some familiar sounds of shock, but he could no longer care about that. The most important thing was to kill the stray orc in front of him.

The bear group slowly moved forward and was about to launch a second attack, when suddenly, another voice came from behind them.

“Tuan, what’s wrong with you?”

It’s Bai Qi! When he suddenly heard Bai Qi’s worried voice, Xiong Tuan woke up immediately. After waking up, he found that he had turned into a beast form without knowing when, and in front of him was Xiong He who was covering his shoulder.
