Building a Civilization and Raising Cubs in the Beast World – Chapter 37

Chapter 37

Bai Tu and Lang Qi were silent for a moment after hearing this. This scene was really rare. They never expected that there would be a day when Lang Ze felt that others were ignorant. If Langze hadn’t looked confused when they were talking about Shipeng just now, Bai Tu would even suspect that he did it on purpose.

But it turned out to be a good excuse. Bai Tu was thinking about how to mention it before, but now he doesn’t have to think about it, because the reason is delivered to his door.

After complaining about the ignorant Shi Peng, Langze took on the job of making the fire himself. When it comes to eating, no one can compare to Langze except Bai Tu. He has an amazing learning ability. In a short while, he made the fire, put on the stone pot, and then asked Bai Tu how much oil to put in. Although the tribe has been eating fish frequently recently, Langze always feels that no one else’s cooking is as delicious as Bai Tu’s.

In order to show that he is indeed stronger than Shi Peng, Lang Ze decides to show off his skills. However, no matter how he performs, Lang Qi refuses to agree to let him replace Shi Peng in the Rabbit Tribe. Lang Ze can only follow Lang Qi with grievance, glaring at Shi Peng from time to time.

Shi Peng has been absent-minded since hearing Langze’s words. He tried to find an opportunity to plead with Bai Tu, but it was useless. Langze was determined to take him away and even obtained Langqi’s consent.

“You are so stupid. Staying here will only hold Tu back.” Langze said impatiently, “If you don’t want to go to the Wolf Tribe, then find another tribe by yourself. Don’t drag Tu down!” In Langze’s mind, Bai Tu’s work was much busier than his brother’s. He had to grow all kinds of plants, research food, and take care of the cubs in the tribe. He heard the last thing from the Rabbit Tribe. The Rabbit Tribe also said that Bai Tu made a bunch of toys for the cubs. Langze was very envious.

In short, Bai Tu is omnipotent, and they should do other things well. But Shi Peng is causing trouble for Bai Tu. He is really ignorant and should be disciplined by his brother!

Before Langqi and Langze left, Shipeng wanted to say something to Baitu, but Baitu stopped him: “You are a fierce beast. Follow the wolf tribe for a few days to get familiar with yourself. There are many things to learn there.” ”

Hurry up and go back to plant trees!” Langze urged. They still had a lot to do. They had to follow Baitu’s footsteps and could not delay for even a day. Why was this lion so procrastinating? He was not as straightforward as him. He did whatever Baitu asked him to do. He planted corn when Baitu asked him to plant corn and planted trees when Baitu asked him to plant trees. It was a pity that Baitu did not let him make a waterwheel. Langze was very envious of the big round waterwheel of the rabbit tribe. It must be more fun on it.

No matter how reluctant Shi Peng was, he had no choice but to follow the two wolves. Before leaving, he comforted himself that the wolves had learned a lot from the rabbits, and it would be the same for him to learn from the wolves. As long as he learned well quickly, he would be able to find a chance to return to the rabbits, and it would not be too late to pass on the message then. If the tribe really did not have time to prepare, he would find a chance to rob the rabbits, as the rabbits had stored food anyway!

Shi Peng lowered his head to hide his little thoughts. He must make sure that the tribe survives the winter. As for what to do with the rabbits who stole their food, that had nothing to do with him, because the rabbits were the weakest!

In a place that no one else noticed, Shi Peng glanced at Bai Tu with disdain. This fake witch doctor who could only use his beauty to seduce orcs would be exposed sooner or later, and that would be his death. The Beast God Continent severely punished those who pretended to be witch doctors, and the Rabbit Tribe would never forgive this fake witch doctor. Shi Peng felt relieved when he thought that once the truth was revealed, both the Rabbit Tribe and the Wolf Tribe would be thinking about killing Bai Tu. Only people like Foxbu were qualified to be called witch doctors. How could Bai Tu, who knew nothing, be qualified!

Lang Qi, who was walking in front of the two, seemed to have sensed something. He turned around to look at Shi Peng and pondered over Bai Tu’s instructions. Bai Tu said that this man had evil intentions and told him to be careful. It would be best to have someone keep an eye on him and never let him contact the Lion Clan again.

Not long after the three of them left the place where the rabbit tribe lived, they changed into their original forms and rushed towards the wolf tribe. Their original forms were faster than their human forms, but they consumed a little energy. The mulberry branches that Bai Tu selected were all suitable for cuttings and not too long. They could be tied up and thrown directly onto the back, which was easier to carry than using a human figure.

Looking at the sizes of the two wolves, Shi Peng felt extremely jealous. Why were their original forms bigger than those of the lions?

Shi Peng looked down on orcs of other races, especially those weaker than the Lion Clan, and the tribes near the Lion Clan were basically in this category. Even though his status in the Mad Lion Tribe was very low, Shi Peng still didn’t think these races could compare to himself. But now that he saw the Wolf Clan which was stronger than himself, he was even more dissatisfied. The Wolf Clan should be weaker than the Lion Clan, how could he go against this rule!

He was unable to speak after turning into his original form. Seeing Shi Peng walking slowly behind him, Langze kicked him twice. How long would it take to reach the tribe if he kept taking so long? They still have to hunt at night!

Lang Qi did not stop Lang Ze’s actions. He waited until the two of them caught up with him before speeding up. He ran all the way and arrived at the Blood Wolf Tribe before dark.

Dozens of wolves were waiting at the foot of the mountain. Although they were only going to the nearby tribe, the members of the wolf team were equally dependent on and obedient to their little leader and the wolf king. The other members felt insecure when the leader was not around, so no matter where the wolf king and the little leader went, they would be welcomed by countless fellow tribesmen when they returned to the tribe.

When Langze saw his friends, he quickened his pace and rushed to the crowd. He put the mulberry branches behind him on the ground and stuck close to his teammates who had turned into their original forms one by one. However, in the end, the situation gradually turned into a chase and a fight.

Lang Qi’s reaction was much calmer. He went back to the cave and changed back into human form. When he came out again, he was the steady wolf king again. He nodded to his fellow tribesmen as a greeting, pointed to Shi Peng next to him, and said to an orc beside him: “Yang, send him down the cave.”

Lang Yang responded and took Shi Peng to the back mountain.

Shi Peng thought that his residence among the wolves should be the same as that among the rabbits, with a separate cave. But when he got there, he found out that it was actually a cave where more than a dozen orcs lived!

Even though the rainy season had just ended, the weather was still hot. The orcs’ hair in summer was not as dense as in winter, but its ability to retain heat was not much worse. A cave with a large number of people, no matter how clean it was, had an indescribable smell. What’s more, the orcs in this cave looked completely different from the orcs outside the tribe who came to greet Wolf Qi and Wolf Ze. Their hair was messy, and it was obvious that they had not been groomed for a long time.

The place where Shi Peng lived in the Crazy Lion Tribe was even worse than this. It was a cave that could accommodate dozens of people, and it was located in the most remote and least ventilated place in the tribe. The smell was much worse than this. But after joining the Rabbit Tribe, he had his own cave, which was not only clean and bright, but also had orcs to help clean. The treatment after coming to the Wolf Tribe was too different, and Shi Peng found it hard to accept.

It was obvious that these orcs were driven into this cave because they made a mistake. It was impossible for them to live here.

Shi Peng: “You are wrong, I am here to study and should not live here!” He is stronger than the average wolf. Even if he cannot get a cave as big as the rabbits, he should live in a separate small cave or a cave for two people with another orc. How could he live in such a crowded small cave with so many people!

“Yes, that’s it, go in.” Lang Yang pushed him and reminded his fellow tribesmen who were guarding nearby, “His name is Shi Peng. He was brought back by the king. He will go out with the others starting tomorrow.” The young

man who was guarding the entrance of the cave was a thin-looking young man. He nodded in agreement, but turned around and his tone to Shi Peng was not so friendly. He only said a few words: “You are thirty-two.”

The orcs lying or sitting in the cave moved in expressionlessly, leaving a space half a person wide. Shi Peng didn’t want to stay in such a cave. Noticing the dissatisfied looks of Lang Yang and the guarding orcs, he could only swallow his rebuttal.

It’s okay, just endure it for a few days. Once he has learned all the skills from the wolf tribe, he can go back to the rabbit tribe. He just won’t see Foxbub in the rabbit tribe. The environment is much better than here. He just needs to hold on for a few days.

It was not until the next day when he was taken out of the cave with the orcs that Shi Peng realized something was wrong. His job was not to study at all. It was the same as what the rabbit tribe did, digging holes and cutting grass. He never saw other orcs and was always surrounded by people who lived in the cave with him! Shi Peng had long been dissatisfied with these orcs. Not only did they smell bad, but they also grinded their teeth and talked while sleeping at night, which kept him awake all night. Not to mention now that the hardest work was given to him.

Shi Peng protested in dissatisfaction and threw the bucket in his hand: “I won’t fetch water!” The riverside was very dangerous just after the rainy season, and this bucket was a circle larger than the rabbit tribe’s bucket and was heavier when filled with water. Why was he the only one to carry water among so many people?

As soon as he said this, a few orcs who were digging a pit nearby stopped and looked at him unfriendly.

Shi Peng was not afraid of them at all. If it was Langqi and Langze who were here, he would be scared. As for this group of orcs who were thinner than him in their original form, they had no deterrent power at all. He now hopes that this group of orcs will take action, so that he can take the opportunity to establish his own position.

The wolf guarding the group of orcs was napping beside a tree, seemingly unaware of the situation here.

Shi Peng looked around and decided to take action now, and be the first to transform into his original form before anyone else made a move.

The few orcs who were originally just confronting each other smiled maliciously and turned back into their original forms.

Shi Peng was right about one thing. This group of orcs were smaller than him. Two of them were not large wolves but smaller jackals. Seeing that his opponent was so weak, Shi Peng felt very proud. He thought that after defeating this group of orcs, he would not have to do anything next.

But Shi Peng’s pride did not last long. He overlooked the most important point in the battle: the difference in numbers. He was bigger than his opponent, but his opponent was a group of orcs who had cooperated many times and had a tacit understanding. Not only could they easily find his weaknesses, but they also kept hitting him where it hurt.

Shi Peng roared in the direction of the orc who was guarding him, but the orc was sleeping soundly under the shade of a tree, and didn’t seem to care at all about what was happening here.

After the attacking wolves dispersed, Shi Peng had dozens of wounds of varying sizes on his body. The leading wolf turned into a human form and was not afraid of his attack at all. He picked up the wooden barrel that Shi Peng had thrown aside and threw it at him: “Go carry water, don’t think about being lazy, and don’t think about running away! Otherwise I’ll beat you to death!”

The orcs who made mistakes were locked in the same cave and would not be released until the wolf king felt that the punishment was enough. The wolf tribe also has a rule that if any orcs in the same cave run away or slack off, the remaining people will be punished.

Unlike the lion friends who had just arrived, the others knew the wolf king’s character very well and knew that they would never be able to escape unless the other party nodded. So even though the orc guarding them was the smallest wolf, no one tried to escape. Although it was a bit tiring to stay in the tribe, at least there was something to eat. Going out would not only be hunted by the wolf clan, but also face the risk of hunger and being attacked by other orcs. It went without saying which of the two lives to choose.

No one cared what Shi Peng’s original form was, nor did they care why Shi Peng was brought here. They just wanted to perform well and try to leave the cave as soon as possible. Of course, Shi Peng had the most work when he first arrived. This was the tacit rule of the small group. If he couldn’t finish the work, someone else would naturally take over. But Shi Peng resisted from the beginning and turned into his original form in front of everyone. This was definitely a provocation to other orcs. In this case, of course he had to know who was the boss.

Shi Peng, with a pile of scars on his face, limped to the river with a bucket to carry water. None of the orcs he met along the way showed any surprise, as if they had long been accustomed to it. Only a group of cubs at the cave entrance not far away looked at him curiously.

Before the lion friends could take a few more glances at the cubs, an orc drove the cubs back to the cave with a branch: “Go back, the king will be back soon.”

The cubs who were running and playing around stopped for a moment, and immediately lined up and walked towards the cave.

Shi Peng observed the orcs around him, but he didn’t find a suitable opportunity to take action until he reached the river. The wolf tribe had more people than the rabbit tribe, and most of them could be fought. Even during the day when the hunting team was resting, he had no way to escape.

The wounds on his body were getting more and more painful, and Shi Peng felt more resentful. It was all Bai Tu’s fault. If Bai Tu hadn’t agreed to Lang Ze’s proposal, he would still be in the Rabbit Tribe. The food of the Rabbit Tribe was better than that of the Wolf Tribe. There was very little food in the caves where there were many wolf tribe members, and there was only one piece of food. It was eaten by others before he could grab it. Now he had so much work to do, and he couldn’t contact his own tribe…

“Brother, what is that lion doing?” Lang Ze was not far from the river. He had just eaten fish yesterday and felt like eating again today, so he came to see if he could catch a few. However, Shi Peng appeared here soon, carrying water and gritting his teeth. What was he doing?

“Dream on.” Lang Qi said casually and threw the fish basket filled with earthworms into the river. Bai Tu’s idea was really good. It was easy to catch fish this way without having to go into the water.

“Oh.” Lang Ze was not angry without hearing Lang Qi’s explanation. He agreed and continued to look at the fish baskets in the river. He was eager to try, “Brother, can I go in the water?”

“No!” Lang Qi said in a deep voice, “If you go in the water, don’t go to the Snow Rabbit Tribe next time.”

“Okay.” Lang Ze sighed regretfully. Why is his brother getting more and more strict? In the past, when he mentioned going into the water, he would just say that he would not eat, but now he directly forbade him to go to Bai Tu. If he didn’t want to eat, he could wait for others to secretly bring it to him, but he couldn’t not go to Bai Tu. He also wanted to eat all kinds of food that Bai Tu mentioned!

Thinking of food, Langze started counting on his fingers again: “Brother, it will take a long time for the next market to come.” He really wanted to get to the market as soon as possible so that he could stay with Bai Tu for half a month and eat all kinds of delicious food.

Lang Qi glanced at his younger brother who didn’t care about anything else except eating, and threw the next fish basket down without saying a word.

A fish basket can only catch a limited number of fish, so we need to put more. Or, how about learning from the Snow Rabbit Tribe and digging a small pond in an empty cave to raise fish? The fish that the rabbit tribe raises are well-raised and fatter than those caught. You can eat them anytime without having to run outside every time.

Next time I’ll ask how they dug it. And the small waterwheel next to the pool is said to be useful too… Well, I’ll learn about it later. The little witch doctor seems to like baby animals. He was very happy for most of the day when I gave him the calves and piglets last time. It’s a pity that I didn’t catch them after the rainy season, otherwise I could have given him some more. I’ll catch more next time.

Bai Tu didn’t know that the two brothers were planning to come next time, so he started working non-stop after Shi Peng left.

Shi Peng stayed in the tribe, and the hunting team had to leave a few people in the tribe alone, so he missed a lot of things, such as checking the height of the corn. He could only go there quietly when the other party was busy. Bai Tu never told Shi Peng about the corn or the animal cubs.

Bai Tu was always extremely wary of the members of the Crazy Lion Tribe. No matter how well they said, he never truly trusted them. All he showed Shi Peng were things that made no difference whether he learned them or not. For example, weaving steamers, Shi Peng only knew how to weave them, and didn’t know that they were used to steam dried meat. The same went for cutting meat, cutting grass, and picking mulberry leaves. They were just the heavier work in the tribe. Shi Peng had never seen the more skilled work that actually involved storing food.

Even after living in the tribe for nearly ten days, Shi Peng still hadn’t discovered the tribe’s cornfield. The news that had spread was of the utmost uselessness. If the Crazy Lion Tribe really followed the other party’s wrong way to prepare winter supplies, it would be in vain.

The growth of corn is still good. A small part of the corn, which is more than 40 days old, has begun to form male ears. According to this trend, it will mature in about 30 days.

Bai Tu is very much looking forward to the harvest and takes good care of the crops. The only troublesome part is that there are no fertilizers or pesticides, so he has to catch the insects himself. Fortunately, no insect pests have been found so far.

After checking the corn as usual, Bai Tu went to see the silkworm eggs that were taken out after the rainy season ended. They had been placed in a cave with low temperature. There was almost no difference between when they were taken out and when they were put in. Now small black spots have begun to appear on the eggs, indicating that they are about to hatch.

It takes more than twenty days to nearly thirty days to raise a batch of silkworms, but Bai Tu speculated that this batch would take even less time because both the cocoon-breaking speed and the hatching speed were faster than he remembered.

Silkworms, corn, a few hens sitting on nests and the already grown chicks. Bai Tu breathed a sigh of relief. These developments were all in line with his plan and were even better than he had expected at the beginning.

There is only one thing. The time agreed with the Black Hawk Tribe has arrived, but no orcs from the Black Hawk Tribe have been seen so far. Bai Tu was a little worried. He had seen no mistakes since he woke up, and he still trusted Hei Xiao’s character. Could it be that something happened to the Black Hawk tribe, resulting in the inability to deliver the iron ore in time after the rainy season?

At the same time, not far from the Snow Rabbit Tribe, several huge goshawks were circling in the sky.

Black Hawk Tribe: Sorry, I’m lost.
