Chapter 357 357 Menstrual Period (2)

Xia Tian took the animal skin bag that Qiu handed to her and opened it. There were balls of snow-white cotton inside, which had been cleaned and carefully stored.

She looked at the cotton balls, not knowing whether to sigh at the timely help or be happy that cotton actually existed in this world, and had been discovered long ago...

After cleaning and putting a cotton ball on the floor, Xia Tian felt that she had finally rescued herself from the awkward atmosphere.

"Xia Xia, is everything settled?" Qiu re-entered the cave from outside and looked at the cave, which had been restored to its cleanliness and tidiness. He couldn't hide his admiration in his eyes. "You're so sensible. You even know how to clean up after yourself... Oh, by the way, have you used the cotton? That's the clean cotton I harvested last year, it's unused, so don't worry. Is there anything you don't understand? It's okay, don't be shy, it's something everyone goes through..."

Before coming, Si Ye told her that Xia Xia had never had a menstrual period before, and she didn't know why she suddenly had one this time.

Since it was my first time, I asked her to help.

"It's okay, it's very simple, I learned it quickly." Xia Tian was able to move freely again and gave her a kind smile, "Thank you for the cotton."

Cotton is the most cost-effective of all affordable fabrics, especially when used as a close-fitting material. Although its actual use is still different from the tools on Earth, it is already a very good enjoyment under such harsh conditions.

"Aye is right, you are very smart and you learned it in no time." Qiu expressed his admiration again.

"You said that Si Ye also... knows about this?" Upon hearing this, Xia Tian's face turned red.

She was used to being careless about this, but being known so clearly by the opposite sex...

"What's the big deal? The whole tribe knows about it now." Qiu didn't notice the petrified expression on Xia Tian's face. He sat down and talked to himself, "Oh, right, I almost forgot. You're not a half-orc, so you can't smell it. Females emit very strong mating pheromones during their menstrual period. You probably didn't feel it, right? In fact, the smell has already spread out. If it weren't for Aye's scent covering you up, everyone would have known it even faster!"

Although the lives of people in the Beast World are basically not much different from those of pure humans, in fact everyone has more or less beast blood, and has a primitive and unique worship of reproduction.

They regard this as a sacred ritual. Females begin to emit pheromones for courtship during their menstrual period. When the menstrual period ends, they can determine their partner and start considering reproducing the next generation.

Under normal circumstances, single females in the tribe should be very happy when they encounter their menstrual period, and will try their best to emit their pheromones to attract males that are compatible with them.

As for whether it would be awkward or not if everyone in the tribe knew about it...

"This is a very normal thing! Everyone has to go through it, right? You are still young. Although no one in our tribe can compare to Aye, you can still consider it!"

When it came to gossip, Qiu became noticeably more lively. "By the way, what's going on between you and Ah Ye? You already live together, so why haven't you become a couple? Let me tell you, someone like him has so many eyes on him. Aren't you afraid that he'll be snatched away by someone else?"
