"Chief, I want to join the picking team."
The males in the tribe are responsible for hunting, while the females need to go out on fixed days to pick fruits and edible plants to store food for the winter.
But the original body was lazy and refused to work. With the support of her family, the clan leader did not let her join the picking team.
In winter, other orcs could get food, but Yuan Bo did not work and could only rely on his family for support.
It’s not that Hu Jiaojiao is short of food, but there are many beasts in the tribe and they have many eyes. She can’t be too excessive when taking things out of the space, so she has to find a suitable reason.
For example, going out and picking up something.
She didn't want to reveal the fact that she had a space of supplies.
"You want to join the picking team?" The clan leader looked surprised when he heard Hu Jiaojiao's words.
In the past, Hu Jiaojiao cried and refused to go, but now she actually took the initiative to ask to join the picking team
"Yes, Chief, I hope you can agree." Hu Jiaojiao nodded.
This little thing is naturally not a problem.
"Okay, next time I go out of the tribe to pick, I'll have the orcs come and call you."
Whatever his purpose, he made a profit by exchanging it for fire-making stones.
"Thank you, Patriarch!"
Although she knew that the clan leader would definitely agree, Hu Jiaojiao still smiled happily.
Hu Jiaojiao took out two stones from her body.
"Chief, this is the stone that can make fire. I will teach you how to use it."
As she finished speaking, the two flints collided and rubbed against each other in her palms, and soon sparks fell. She then took out the tinder she had prepared in advance and caught the sparks.
He placed it in his palm and blew on it carefully a few times.
Soon, as white smoke came out, a string of flames quickly jumped out.
"It's lit! It can really make a fire!"
"What kind of stone is this? It's so magical?"
"Hu Jiaojiao is so lucky that she picked up such a good thing..."
Among the beastmen, there were those who were envious, jealous, and some who looked down on Hu Jiaojiao.
After the demonstration, Hu Jiaojiao handed the flint to the patriarch.
Originally, she was planning to look for the clan leader, but unexpectedly, Xiong Hua helped her and called the clan leader over.
The animals were jealous upon seeing this, but there was nothing they could do, so they shook their heads and left.
The look in the eyes of Flintstone, the tribe leader's subordinate, who looked at Hu Jiaojiao changed subtly.
He glanced at Hu Min and Long Yao who were still not far away, and a relieved smile appeared on his face, "Hu Jiaojiao, take good care of your five cubs in the future and treat them well. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me."
Perhaps because he took Hu Jiaojiao's things, or perhaps because he saw the changes in Hu Jiaojiao, he did not have any prejudice against Hu Jiaojiao like other orcs.
"Thank you for your kindness, Chief. I will take good care of the cubs in the future and raise them to be plump and healthy." Hu Jiaojiao nodded seriously and replied.
I felt quite emotional.
It seems that this patriarch is a good person. He is willing to lend a helping hand even to a female like the original body.
Although the patriarch had the method of making fire in his own hands, he also managed the tribe prosperously. Thinking of the patriarch's sacrifice in the book, Hu Jiaojiao felt it was a great pity.
"Little sister, you are so awesome!" After the clan leader left, Hu Qinggao praised Hu Jiaojiao with joy on his face.
Hu Qinggao has a gentle and jade-like appearance, and a pair of fox eyes add a touch of evil charm to his soft facial features. When he smiles, his handsome face is as refreshing as a spring breeze, and he looks like a handsome man who has walked out of a painting.
Hu Jiaojiao looked at her second brother's beautiful face and couldn't help but gasp. He was indeed a fox, so handsome. I wonder which female will get him in the future...
"Little sister, what's wrong? Is there something on second brother's face?" Hu Qinggao touched his face with a puzzled look.
Hu Jiaojiao quickly shook her head, retracted her gaze, and changed the subject.
"No... I want to ask, second brother, how did you know I was here?"
"I just came back from hunting and wanted to bring you some food. I heard Xionghua calling your name and was afraid you were being bullied, so I hurried over."
Hu Qinggao said this, and suddenly remembered something.
He turned around and looked far away, and soon came back with three pheasants that were flapping their wings and had broken legs.
"Thanks to my little sister's reminder, I almost forgot about the prey."
Hu Jiaojiao smiled faintly. The second brother of the original body was really the same as described in the book. He was good-looking, but had a bad memory and was careless in doing things, which was really inconsistent with this face.
Hu Qinggao scratched his head and pushed the pheasant into Hu Jiaojiao's arms, "Little sister, take these back and eat them. If you don't have enough, I'll go catch more tomorrow!"
The fox orcs were not good at fighting, and could only hunt small prey. Even so, every time Fox Qinggao caught fatter prey, he would send it to his original body as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Hu Jiaojiao quickly waved her hand to refuse.
"Brother, I don't need it. I still have a lot of meat at home that I haven't finished eating. It was all sent back by Long Mo yesterday."
Hearing this, Hu Qinggao frowned with a look of disdain.
"Long Mo? How many prey can that rubbish deliver?"
In the past, whenever he sent back prey, his little sister would have finished it the next day, so he specially sent the prey today because he was afraid that his little sister would be hungry.
Hu Jiaojiao pursed her lips and asked with a smile, "Second brother, how about you take me back to see him?"
The original body disliked Long Mo and often said all kinds of bad things about Long Mo in front of his family, so that Hu Qinggao had a deep prejudice against Long Mo.
She wanted to conquer the villain Long Mo, but she couldn't afford to fail here with these brothers.
Knowing that her explanation was useless, she simply let Hu Qinggao see it for herself.
"Let's go." Hu Qinggao nodded.
He really wanted to see how many prey Long Mo could catch.
Hu Jiaojiao wanted to take Long Yu and Long Yao home together, but when she turned around, the two little guys were gone.
He smiled helplessly and had to walk back with Hu Qinggao.
…
In the wooden house.
Long Xiu, the only one left at home, heard footsteps outside and nervously clenched the wooden stick in his arms.
"Second brother, we are back." Long Linger's voice came soon after.
Long Xiu then relaxed a little, moved his ears, and suddenly frowned again, asking, "Why are you two the only ones back?"
From the sound of footsteps, he could tell that only two people were returning.
"Two?" The scar on Long Zhong's face twitched suddenly. He turned around and saw that there was no trace of Long Yao behind him.
He gritted his teeth and said, "This Xiaowu, he slipped away again."
"What's going on? Didn't you succeed?" Long Xiu heard something wrong in the words and asked repeatedly.
He also listened to the vicious female's plan last night, but he couldn't see it, and it would be a burden to go there, so he could only wait for news at home.
"Of course it succeeded. Second brother, you don't know, Xiongqiu was in such a miserable state. His house was burned to ashes by his mother, and he even ate Xiaowu's shit..."
Long Linger couldn't wait to describe to Long Xiu the scene they had just seen.
The more Long Xiu listened, the weirder his expression became.
Eat shit
This was not included in yesterday’s plan!
"But... Xiong Hua will definitely not let mother go so easily..." Long Linger said, and suddenly became depressed.
Just as he finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside the house.
The three cubs subconsciously became nervous. Could it be that Xiong Hua brought people back for revenge
