"Yes, Hu Qinglu helped me make this bow and arrow. I didn't make it alone." Hou Xiaotiao scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I don't have such a good brain."
He is not smart, but he is quick with his hands and feet. It was Long Mo who taught them how to build the stone house.
"Then why didn't he come with you?" the patriarch asked with a frown.
He didn't expect that Hu Qinglu had this talent.
"He hasn't slept for several days in order to do this, so he went back to catch up on some sleep."
Speaking of this, Hou Xiaotiao felt even more ashamed.
It was clearly his business, but Hu Qinglu had to work so hard for so many days.
The clan leader was pleased and patted Hou Xiaotiao on the shoulder:
"You two have made contributions. From now on, you will teach everyone how to make bows and arrows. Just tell me what reward you want."
Monkey orcs are not good at fighting.
The chief wanted to reward him, which was also a disguised way of telling everyone that as long as they had the ability, weak orcs could also be reused.
Monkey Xiaotiao looked at Hu Jiaojiao somewhat at a loss.
In the past, he could only help Hu Jiaojiao make some furniture, and he never thought that he could get the reward from the clan leader by making things.
Hu Jiaojiao nodded at him encouragingly.
Monkey Xiaotiao finally became bolder and bared his teeth in a silly way, looking a little embarrassed:
"My wife Houxiang is pregnant again. I want to get some supplies for her so that she can eat better during the winter."
"There's monkey incense again?" Hu Jiaojiao was surprised, and then she smiled with joy. Recently, happy events in the tribe have been happening one after another.
Monkey Xiaotiao nodded.
Hearing this, Long Mo, who had a cold expression on his face, frowned.
How come another female is pregnant
He glanced at Hou Xiaotiao, who was grinning foolishly and had a happy face.
If he remembered correctly, Hou Xiaotiao's partner was pregnant for the second time, right
Jiaojiao and he just gave birth to a litter of puppies.
The natural competitive spirit of males made Long Mo feel a little unbalanced.
When Jiaojiao was pregnant, he was not there to take care of her, but they were able to stay by their partner's side every day and watch their cubs grow up little by little.
Hou Xiaotiao suddenly felt a chill on his back and couldn't help shivering. When he turned around, he saw Long Mo looking at him with a sinister look.
He seemed to... say something right, right
"Hou Xiaotiao, congratulations." Hu Jiaojiao was also happy for Hou Xiaotiao and Hou Xiang, "But as a beast, can you take care of them?"
There are still two monkey cubs in his family who have not yet transformed. Now Hou Xiang is pregnant again, and Hou Xiaotiao also has to make bows and arrows. It can be said that he is very busy.
"I'm busy enough. Hou Xiang's cub this time is from another partner. He will take care of the family, so there's no problem."
After Hou Xiang lost weight, many more orcs liked her.
Her second partner was the orc brought back by Xieman, a strong lion-clan orc.
Hu Jiaojiao was still a little surprised.
But on second thought, this is a very common thing in the orc world. Now the number of females and males in the tribe is very unbalanced. If the females don't find new partners, it will be a headache.
"We are not afraid of being tired, but the cubs always cling to Hou Xiang, and I'm worried that they will playfully kick Hou Xiang's belly..." Hou Xiaotiao was a little distressed.
"Wouldn't it be better if we just sleep separately?" Hu Jiaojiao asked doubtfully.
Monkey Xiaotiao shook his head. "All the stones in the tribe have been used to build the wall. There is no extra stone to build another house."
He couldn't occupy the stones for building the wall just for his own little personal matter.
He still knows what is more important.
Hu Jiaojiao touched her chin.
That's a problem.
The stones near the tribe are limited. Now that the tribe is expanding, more stones are needed. If orcs want to build stone houses in the future, they will have to go to farther places to transport stones.
Such repeated operations are a waste of manpower and time.
This is not a long-term solution.
Hu Jiaojiao thought for a moment and suddenly thought of something.
If you don’t have enough stones, you can make bricks!
The tribe now has manpower and can make things that they could not make before due to lack of manpower.
"I do have a way to replace stone, but it's a bit troublesome and takes time." Hu Jiaojiao thought about it and told Hou Xiaotiao the method of firing blue bricks.
She also only knows some theoretical knowledge.
The practice still needs to be left to them.
"Great!" Monkey Xiaotiao didn't mind at all, and said excitedly, "I can spend as much time as I want. I will study hard and try to make the blue bricks!"
There are so many places in the tribe that need stones.
If blue bricks can be fired, the tribe will be able to use them instead of stones in the future and will no longer have to worry about lack of building materials.
"Hou Xiaotiao, I will send twenty orcs to help you. If you don't have enough manpower, tell me." The chief also fully supported.
After that, he added:
"This winter, the supply of monkey fragrance is doubled. You can go directly to the warehouse to get it."
The warehouse is guarded by special orcs who are responsible for distributing supplies every day.
Upon hearing this, Monkey Xiaotiao became so excited that he spoke incoherently.
"Really? Thank you, Chief. I thank you on behalf of Hou Xiang and the cub..."
Double the supplies will allow the monkey to keep in good health and the cubs can grow up healthy.
The patriarch waved his hand and told him not to say anything more.
As long as he can make a contribution to the tribe, he would have no problem giving his share to Hou Xiaotiao.
The chief called his men and asked them to bring twenty orcs over.
Five of them were from the original tribe, and fifteen were orcs who had just joined the tribe.
There are few orcs in their tribe, so this ratio is just right.
Hu Jiaojiao took a quick look and found that she didn't recognize any of the orcs except the five from her original tribe.
But the other party knew her. When they walked up to her, they were a little excited, their dark cheeks were dark red, like shy dark-skinned girls.
They are actually qualified to help Hu Jiaojiao.
It's like a dream.
Long Mo looked at his daughter Jiaojiao being stared at by so many males, and his already unhappy mood became even more unhappy.
His face was gloomy, and a cold aura instantly spread around him.
The beasts felt that the air around them seemed to solidify in an instant. The powerful aura bent their backs and they even thought of escaping from here.
Bloodline suppression!
There's a reason for that.
Hu Jiaojiao and Long Mo were closest to each other, but they didn't notice anything.
Her attention was all on one of the orcs the chief had brought.
It's Leopard Wind.
At this moment, Bao Feng had completely lost his former high spirits. His long, messy hair hung down, his beard was untidy, and he looked dejected.
It was like a body that had lost its three souls and six spirits, and even its eyes were like emotionless jade, looking empty and lifeless.
There seems to be a clear difference between him and the orcs around him.
The tribe leader knew that Bao Feng was not in good condition recently, so he specially asked him to come over to find something for him to do to divert his attention.
But apparently, this had no effect on Leopard Wind.
