There was not enough time for Andy to take a bath, and even if he did, he would not have time to dry it. Hunting in the cold and wet was a kind of death-seeking behavior, so he went out with the smell of cub urine.
The instigator of the accident—Louis, happily went to the field with his father and his brothers.
Black and Bai's task today is to follow Sita and some other orcs to pick wild fruits and edible plants. Five female cubs were also cared for by their group, along with their mother.
"This area is very safe." As usual, Sita acted as their guide. She patiently introduced the distribution of the tribal territory to the three new members, where the delicious fruits grow, how to distinguish the marks left by the tribe members and various marks. what does it mean...
These are not only told to Black and the others, but also to the cubs. Sita is the oldest eldest sister in the tribe. As a long-lived mammoth, she has obtained more inherited knowledge from her ancestors than others. Most of the orcs in the Vash tribe are relatively young. They need to be accompanied by the elders to acquire various knowledge so that they can survive better and serve the tribe better in the future. I have to say that it is really a kind of luck to have such a knowledgeable girl in the young Washi tribe.
However, the members of the Vash tribe who grew up under the guidance of such a profound big sister of the mammoth tribe are all a bit like mammoths in their habits.
"Look, this kind of paw print was left by the leader. The third paw print is relatively deep, which means that this place is safe. This paw print has been left for about ten days, so the credibility is not very high. "
Sita began to explain the paw prints of the tribe members according to local conditions.
"It's too cold here. We don't have many trees or rocks. We can only leave paw prints on ice or land. Therefore, we need to inspect the land more diligently."
"Huh? Tree? What's a tree?" asked a young orc.
"Trees... trees are very tall grass! Much taller than our mammoths! And trees are different from grass, they have branches." Sita explained, and drew a small picture on the ground.
"Oh—" In the eyes of the orcs of the Vash tribe, the mammoth is already the tallest orc they have ever seen, and the tree is taller than the mammoth.
"How tall will be the person that the tree turns into!" The little orc just now looked longingly.
"Trees can't become people~" Sita pierced his imagination with a finger.
Trees can also become people, if they are given enough time... Meng Jiuzhao secretly thought, it is said that he has the blood of tree people in himself, and the proof is that he only recruits male mosquitoes and never female mosquitoes in summer.
However, Meng Jiuzhao was quite surprised that Sita would know the existence of the tree. The orcs here have already settled down. He has not been born in this world long enough, and his two fathers in this life have never taken him there. Many places, whether it is the land where he lived before or where he lives now, are extremely cold. This extremely cruel land is very barren, and only the most tenacious plants can survive. The land is completely extinct.
It can be said that the natives here will not know the existence of such things as trees.
He once suspected that the world had just undergone some kind of great change, and it was now in an ice age. However, if there were trees, it might mean that his guess was wrong. Maybe this was just an extremely cold place on this planet. indefinite. Of course, it is also possible that Sita is old enough. When she was young, the climate here was still warm and there were trees.
He will have to explore these by himself in the future, and when he can speak, he may be able to ask Sita for advice on the outside world.
"Ah~ I miss the smell of tree bark so much! Forget it! It's important to get down to business now!" Looking at the tree on the snow that she had just painted, Sita couldn't help drooling, keeping the words to her lips Drooling back, "This mark has been more than ten days. In our tribe, the mark of more than five days is considered invalid. Once the mark is found to be expired, every member is obliged to renew the mark!"
"Oh..." A group of orcs half understood.
"Next, I'll show you how to make a mark." Sita said, and stood up again. After she stretched her waist, she immediately became the prototype of a mammoth!
It was a giant beast about five meters high! It's taller than the Holstein I've seen before! The original Sita was covered with thick fur, and there were two very long and curved fangs around her mouth. She groaned, and then raised her right front paw as a demonstration, showing off her third toe. Where the hair is — well, the hair is too long and covered.
Sita stomped her foot down heavily.
After a loud bang, a paw print was clearly printed on the ice sheet.
"Roar~" The mammoth turned his head and waved his nose at the others, signaling them to turn around.
"???" Meng Jiuzhao, with a question mark on his face, was hugged and turned around by Blake, who also had a question mark on his face. Immediately, he blushed and heard the pattering... hissing sound coming from behind him.
Oops
"After pressing the paw prints, we also need to use urine to mark them, so when we are in the wild, we should try our best to save urine and use it on the places that need to be marked and on the boundaries of the territory." When they turned around again, Sita had already pulled up her skirt.
"Okay! Now it's your turn!" She waved to the other orcs who were already eager to try. Under Sita's gaze, they all became prototypes, and next to Sita's paw prints, they left their own paw prints and—
xx.
"Let's keep one too!" The mother of one of the female cubs beckoned to Black, and after she finished speaking, she carried her cub over, crawled the little female cub on the ice and snow, on the mother's lap As a demonstration, she left a very small paw print next to Sita's paw print, and when she finished, she raised her right leg to urinate a few drops.
Meng Jiuzhao's face turned green.
Black and Bai seemed to have gained something.
"It turns out that Dad regularly sharpened his claws on the ice not because his nails grew, but because he used it to enclose territory!" Bai said with emotion.
Black nodded in agreement, "Back then I thought it was unhygienic for Dad to defecate anywhere. I misunderstood him."
Meng Jiuzhao: ...
He felt again: it was really not easy for these two cubs to live to such an age safely.
In the end, Meng Jiuzhao and Louis were hugged by their fathers, and two small paw prints were left beside Sita's paw prints. More than a dozen large and small paw prints were not neatly arranged in a row, which looked like a painting. painting.
Fortunately, this ice sheet became a part of the iceberg and was preserved. The existence of these paw prints shocked people at that time, but the beasts of different races could leave such neat paw prints together. problems for the entire scientific community.
In fact, it’s just teacher Xita teaching you how to enclose territory. O(∩_∩)O
