Thrown into the Beast World, My Powerful Dragon Husband Appears

[Sweet Romance, Ancient Times, 1V1] Shu Yue was a pampered rich young lady, spoiled by her doting parents. Unfortunately, she was raised to be arrogant and willful, squandering a perfectly good han...

Chapter 242 Wool (1/2)

Shu Yue found Xiao Jiao particularly pleasing to the eye and said, "I won't let you come here in vain. I brought you gifts."

Xiaojiao's eyes showed surprise, "Really?"

Shu Yue pointed to the bamboo baskets used to store miscellaneous items in the tent and said, "See? I left a lot of these baskets for you. They're convenient for storing things and easy to carry. This is a thank you gift for you."

Xiaojiao was very touched, "Thank you!" How could Shu Yue be so kind~

"Then let's go quickly. I'll take you to find it." Xiaojiao was an honest child. He felt bad when others gave him gifts but he had nothing to give.

"Father, please don't go. Your legs are not good and you can't run as fast as me."

The slow-moving leader of the Horned Sheep tribe: "..." He has first-rate escape skills!

Forget it, I’ll show it to this brat next time!

Xiaojiao ran in front to lead the way, while Wente held Shuyue and flew behind. Half an hour later, Xiaojiao disappeared into the weeds in the forest. The grass was now almost as tall as a person, and Shuyue could be buried in it even when she stood. If they waited another month, they couldn't imagine how high the grass would grow.

Xiaojiao was digging in the grass, and soon he dug out a big sweet potato with the flesh and roots. Shu Yue looked closely and found that these sweet potato leaves were the same small round leaves that she had eaten before.

But now the small round leaves have already grown old.

"So it's this kind of leaves!" Shu Yue felt a little complicated. Next time when she cuts wild vegetables, she should dig them out with the roots to see if there is a surprise!

"Little Horn, you eat a lot of red earth stems. You should know where the red earth stems grow the most. Can you tell me?"

Xiaojiao nodded. "Sure, the red earth stems are most abundant in the red roses. They are everywhere in the weeds, but they are hard to find. Also, where the sturdy hairy snorers live, the red earth stems are most abundant there."

"Hairy Snorlax?" Shu Yue repeated awkwardly.

Stop fooling her with cute names, none of the beasts here are good-looking!

Wente said, "Yueyue, I know where the Hard-haired Snorlax is. I'll take you to find it when we get back. The Hard-haired Snorlax tastes very good. You've eaten it before."

"...Uh, really." Since following Wente, she has eaten too much meat, but she can't name many of them...

How can I know which meat is called hard-haired snorlax?

Xiao Jiao helped them find a few more pieces, and Shu Yue didn't let anyone continue working. "That's enough, Xiao Jiao, just let us find them ourselves when we get back."

"We should go back."

Xiaojiao nodded, "Okay."

On the way back, Shu Yue asked Wen Te to fly lower so she could communicate with the running Xiao Jiao. "Xiao Jiao, I want to ask, what do you herbivorous orcs exchange with the carnivorous orcs at the trade fair?"

As Xiaojiao ran, he said, "Come and exchange for meat. During the red rose season, we herbivorous beastmen must eat some meat. This way, our fur will grow thick and dense, so that we can survive the cold moonless season."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then what do you exchange for it?" She guessed that the oil and water in the meat would help their wool grow better.

"We'll just use our own fur. Our fur is very warm to wear, and you females love it the most."

Shu Yue was stunned. How could she forget about wool!

"Little Horn, how about we exchange our prey for your wool?" Wool, spun into wool thread and then woven into cloth, is even better than yarn!

Xiaojiao shook his long horns and said, "Sure, I'll tell my father when I get home that we'll give you all our fur this year."

Their hair grows very fast, and they usually shed a lot. Once the red rose season is over, they will all shed their hair. The shed hair will remain until the red rose season when they are exchanged with the carnivorous orcs. This happens every year.
