Chapter 275 A Busy Morning
As dawn broke, Lang Cang got up and smiled slightly at Lin Baiyan, who was wrapped in an animal skin and had a rosy face from sleeping.
He got out of bed and added a few more pieces of charcoal to the nearly extinguished brazier, put the lid on, and then opened the window a crack.
After he finished, seeing that his little partner was still fast asleep, he leaned over and kissed Lin Baiyan on the cheek before leaving.
He is now leading the male beastmen to training.
Along the way, Lang Cang encountered a few clansmen who had gotten up early. Some of the bolder ones greeted Lang Cang with smiles, "Good morning, Lord City Lord."
Lang Cang nodded in response, "Good morning."
As he greeted them along the way, Lang Cang quickened his pace. He didn't know how Lin Baiyan had spoken to these beastmen. They had been quite afraid of the expressionless Lang Cang before, but now they were actually smiling and exchanging a few words with him.
At first, Lang Cang was very uncomfortable, his tone was stiff, and his words were very unnatural, but later he was even able to reply with a smile.
This gave the tribesmen immense confidence. They already deeply respected Lang Cang. Among the beastmen, the strong were revered, and Lang Cang's abilities were among the best. However, in the past, Lang Cang always had a cold face, so they didn't dare to get too close.
When they arrived at the entrance of the tribe, the male orc warriors had already assembled.
Lang Cang organized the team in front of them and began their morning training for the day.
Every male orc must maintain their combat effectiveness at all times, so daily training is essential. However, since their city is in a crucial stage of construction, Wolf Cang has flexibly modified the training methods.
Today's training involves carrying materials needed for city construction from the village.
This way, the training can be effective while also taking into account the city's development.
As the weight training was nearing its end, fine snowflakes began to fall from the sky. As Lang Cang ran, snowflakes clung to his eyelashes. He wiped his face and shouted to the back of the group, "Speed up!"
After the last round of raw material transport was completed, Lang Cang looked at the male beastmen who were panting heavily from exhaustion, and his face turned cold. "Add three more rounds tomorrow!"
This sentence instantly triggered a chorus of howls from the male beastmen. Lang Cang glanced at them and said, "Five."
Everyone quickly covered their mouths and smiled ingratiatingly at Lang Cang, "Lord, three, three please."
Today was almost their limit, and the thought of having to do three more rounds tomorrow made the male beastmen feel utterly hopeless.
Lang Cang said calmly, "Or eight?"
Everyone quickly stopped their city lord from his terrible idea, repeatedly assuring him, "Five or five will do!"
Lang Cang nodded, and then, unusually, explained, "Without breaking through the limits, you can never increase your combat power."
Huqiu sighed deeply. He knew this principle, but how many people could actually do it?
They're not like the wolf cubs, busy as spinning tops all day long, yet they still have time to train themselves. What's even more absurd is that he actually has time to practice hunting skills with the cubs!
It's outrageous!
"Alright, disperse and go eat breakfast." With a command from Lang Cang, the surrounding beastmen quickly scattered and ran towards the canteen. Hu Qiu grinned and put his arm around Ma Yuan, who was trying to escape. "What are you doing? Aren't you going to eat?"
Ma Yuan chuckled, "I need to go to the cub room first to get some goat milk for my little mouse, Le."
Looking at Ma Yuan's silly smile, Xiong Fei said sourly, "You're such a good father."
Ma Yuan scratched his head, his face full of a loving father's smile. "Little Mouse Le likes me to hold him, and I have to rush back to feed him!"
"Is it this clingy?" Huqiu asked curiously. His partner, Yangye, was about to give birth, and he was very curious about the offspring.
"Yes, I take care of him at home, so the cub is more attached to me!"
"Giving birth to cubs is such a hard job for the rats, it's only right that I help them out."
After Ma Yuan finished speaking, Hu Qiu quickly followed up with, "How are you going to take care of the cubs? Can you teach me?"
Ma Yuan was initially flustered, but soon he got the hang of it. "It's just playing with him, feeding him goat milk, and coaxing the cub to sleep."
Huqiu carefully wrote down Ma Yuan's words, asking a few more questions every now and then.
Hearing the back-and-forth discussion between the two male orcs, Xiong Fei felt even more envious!
He thought of his partner, who should be sound asleep at home right now, and sighed deeply. Lu Xiao had been busy until late last night before he got home, and the two of them barely exchanged a few words before he fell asleep.
They can't even communicate emotionally, let alone have offspring.
Thinking of the adorable little hamsters humming and squeaking at Ma Yuan's house, and then of the baby hamsters about to be born at Hu Qiu's house, Xiong Fei sighed deeply for himself.
He also really wants a sweet, soft, and adorable little cub!
The two were having a heated discussion, while Xiong Fei could only walk to the cafeteria alone with a lonely expression.
Ma Yuan was speaking enthusiastically when he suddenly slapped his forehead. "Oh no! The cubs must be starving at home. I have to go back right away!"
He hurriedly greeted Huqiu and then quickly headed towards the cub enclosure.
Hu Qiu silently recited the experience that Ma Yuan had taught him as he went to the cafeteria.
Just as he arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria, he bumped into Xiong Fei, who was coming out and looking at him with a resentful expression.
Huqiu was a little confused, but he could already smell the delicious aroma coming from the canteen. He didn't bother to ask Xiong Fei and rushed straight to the food window.
He looked inside and exclaimed, "Wow, the food is pretty good today!"
Bamboo shoot and cured pork soup, two roasted potatoes, cold seaweed salad, and a piece of roasted meat for each person.
After collecting his food, Huqiu hurried home to feed his mate.
Lang Cang had already received his food. He stood in front of his stove, frowning and looking at the colorful phoenix eggs in front of him with some difficulty.
He wanted to make a special meal for his partner today.
Steamed egg custard is a very simple food.
But when it came to Lang Cang's hands, it became exceptionally difficult. He had no idea how much water or salt to add or how long to steam it.
After a long silence between Lang Cang and Cai Feng Ji Dan, Lang Cang reluctantly gave up on the idea.
Forget it. If I succeed in making it, that's fine. But if I fail and blow up my partner's carefully decorated kitchen, I'll definitely get yelled at!
The bulging animal skin blanket inside the room rolled around several times like a fat worm, and a kitten's head poked out.
Lin Baiyan transformed into beast form while sleeping. When Lang Cang lifted the curtain and went in, he bumped into a kitten lying on its belly.
