Chapter 75 Reasons
Chapter 75 Reasons
The young man got up, handed the cub to Xi Yang to look after, and went to the cave where the herbs were stored. He took out a few herbs to relieve fever and handed them to the dog spirit.
"Just boil it and let Maoxia drink it along with the medicine." Lin Baiyan had brewed Chinese medicine before, but those were all pre-packaged herbal medicine packets. It would be really difficult for the young man to prepare the medicine himself.
These few herbs were painstakingly found by him using his golden finger; boiling them should make their medicinal effects more readily apparent.
Only then did he remember to ask Tu Lin, "What's going on? How could she suddenly transform into human form?"
Tu Lin shook his head. "I've never encountered one before." It's not that he hasn't encountered cubs that can't transform, but most of these cubs return to the Beast God's side after they turn three.
Because in the eyes of the orcs, such cubs are another kind of cursed orc, and most tribes will no longer waste food to raise such cubs.
It's rare for a cat like Xia to grow up to be five years old, stumbling and struggling like this.
Wolf Cang suddenly spoke up, "Could it be because the food is better?"
His words immediately drew the attention of both of them. Lang Cang said in a deep voice, "Is it possible that such cubs are capable of surviving?"
"It was only because we lacked enough food and grew weaker day by day that we returned to the Beast God's side."
"And since Maoxia has been able to eat her fill all this time and has been training with Langyun and the others, haven't you noticed that her beast form has become stronger than before?"
Lang Cang seemed to have thought of something and coughed awkwardly, "Me too."
He has also grown much taller than before, and even his belly, which had become skeletal from the previous escape, is now rounded up.
For some reason, Lin Baiyan subconsciously thought of Lang Cang's neatly defined abs.
It seems so…
Tu Lin seemed to be deep in thought when he heard Lang Cang's statement.
It seems that they haven't gone hungry since they arrived in the forest.
With food available, everyone gradually became stronger than before, enabling them to hunt more prey, thus creating a virtuous cycle.
At this moment, the young man quickly pulled his wandering thoughts back and pointed out incisively, "So those cursed orcs are just deceiving the beastmen!"
"These little cubs that are having difficulty transforming are just a bit weak. As long as they are well cared for, they will be able to grow up!"
"They just didn't want to waste food feeding these weak cubs."
The young man grew angrier as he spoke, and remembering the people from the White Cat Tribe, he clenched his fists in righteous indignation.
The chieftain of the White Cat Tribe is a prime example of these hypocrites!
Those were all living, breathing human lives, and he just drove them away like that!
Lang Cang patted the young man's shoulder reassuringly, "Alright, thankfully we now know the real reason."
"If we encounter such cubs again in the future, we will have a way to deal with them and will not be fooled by others."
Hearing Lang Cang say that, Lin Baiyan gradually calmed down.
Lang Cang is right, there's no need to get angry with those pedantic and selfish people.
Anyway, they probably won't meet again in their lifetime.
In any case, it's great that Mao Xia was able to successfully transform into human form, and Lin Baiyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Inside the large cave, Lin Baiyan sat at the cave entrance, constantly circling long, thin grass ropes and bamboo strips. His technique looked like he was weaving a basket, but it was different; the one the young man was weaving was much larger.
He's been staying in the cave for the past few days. Mao Xia has just transformed and is still unstable. Lin Baiyan was worried that something might happen, so he's been watching over him.
Fortunately, I haven't had much to do these past few days, so I've been taking time out each day to go hunting with Lang Cang and practice my hunting skills.
"Priest brother, what are you doing!" Mao Xia's figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Baiyan.
Since Xia the kitten was able to transform into human form, she no longer likes to use her beast form. The little guy is still in the novelty phase and keeps trying relentlessly to tame his limbs.
At this moment, Maoxia stumbled over and jumped directly into the arms of her favorite priest brother, then rubbed her head against the young man's chest.
The priest brother smelled sweet and was so soft in her arms, Xia loved it!
The little guy even secretly sniffed it.
The other orcs in the cave heard Xia the kitten's question and turned their gazes to Lin Baiyan. They had long been curious about what the priest was doing.
It had been snowing almost every day for days, and most of the orcs were cooped up in their caves. After a few days of snow, everyone gathered in the big cave to have some fun.
Lin Baiyan freed one hand to ruffle Xia the kitten's curled fur. "I'm weaving a fishing net."
Yesterday, when they arrived at the large river to the east, they saw that the river surface was covered with a thick layer of ice. Lin Baiyan looked carefully through the ice and saw many fish swimming around below.
The kitten was practically lying on the ice, its eyes fixed longingly on the fish below. It seemed to have developed some of the characteristics of a cat-human hybrid, as it now had a great fondness for fish and seafood.
The seafood that Lang Cang and his crew brought back from the beach has been almost entirely consumed; he hasn't eaten fish in a long time…
So after they returned to the cave, the young man began weaving a fishing net without stopping. The straw rope wasn't flexible enough, so Lin Baiyan mixed some finely split bamboo strips into the net.
This way, the fishing nets will be more durable.
fish?
Xia the kitten accurately caught the word, and her eyes lit up immediately.
It's fish meat that the clan chief brought back from the seaside last time!
When the beastmen heard Lin Baiyan say that he was going to catch fish, their interest waned somewhat.
Most of the fish and seafood brought back by the hunting teams were distributed as supplies to the tribe.
However, most orcs do not eat fish. Even after the young man taught them to clean the fish scales and internal organs, they would just boil it, add some salt, and spit out the bones.
As a result, the beastmen in the tribe didn't really like to eat fish, except for the cat-shaped beastmen.
This includes Xia the kitten, who fell in love with the taste of fish the moment she tasted it for the first time.
The young man continued working, "Yesterday when your clan chief and I went out, we found there were quite a lot of fish in the river, so we thought we'd try to catch some."
When Maoxia heard that Lin Baiyan was going to catch fish to eat, the little guy was extremely excited.
Cat Xia absolutely loves eating fish!
"Xia, Xia wants to go fishing too!" She has already transformed into human form and can be of great help!
Xia the kitten was very eager to prove her worth, and she tried her best to puff out her little chest.
