Yu Wanwan has left Qingwan Forest and is resting with Fei Han on an unnamed hillside.
After these few days of flying, Yu Wanwan has truly experienced what it means to live a life of hardship and exposure to the elements.
My mouth gets filled with wind as soon as I open it, and my hair is always wet with dew. It's such an uncomfortable feeling!
She sat on the animal skin, pulled her hat down, and wrapped her scarf tightly around her neck.
Mo Zhou had already returned to his semi-human form, lying lazily on the snow without moving, his breathing very shallow. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was dead, but in fact he was just pretending to sleep.
Fei Han built a fire, and once it was burning, she beckoned to Yu Wanwan to come and warm herself by the fire.
A warm feeling washed over her, and Yu Wanwan sighed contentedly, even feeling her hair, which had been styled by the wind, fall down.
"Wanwan, wait a moment, I'll have dinner ready soon."
Yu Wanwan nodded and sat obediently to one side.
Fei Han took out a bamboo tube from her spatial storage, washed the rice and poured it in, then stuffed it with meat, sealed the opening, and put the bamboo tube into the fire to roast.
Yu Wanwan told him about this method, saying that it could save time when traveling.
Fei Han also tried it and found that the rice made this way was not only edible, but also had a special bamboo aroma, which was very delicious. She instantly became a loyal fan of bamboo rice.
He not only stuffed meat and rice into the bamboo tube, but also tried to stuff in the fruits he usually liked to eat, but he gave up because the result was too dark.
Yu Wanwan rested her chin on her hand, waiting idly for the food to be ready. Mo Zhou, who had just been sleeping on the snow, woke up and turned into a small snake, coiling around Yu Wanwan's wrist.
These past few days, because it's been so cold while traveling, Yu Wanwan has stopped allowing him to tuck his body close to her chest. He either stays close to her through her clothes or wraps his arm around her wrist.
This left Mo Zhou feeling disappointed for a long time.
The aroma of food wafted from the fire. Fei Han felt it was almost ready, so she used a twig to take out the bamboo tube, poured the rice into a bowl, added chopsticks and a spoon, and a glass of juice before handing it to Yu Wanwan.
"Wanwan, come and have a taste."
"Okay." Yu Wanwan was about to reach out to take it when she suddenly felt a stab in her heart and clutched her chest in discomfort.
Seeing her condition, Mo Zhou and Fei Han rushed over, asking anxiously, "Wanwan, are you alright?"
Their commotion attracted the attention of the orcs nearby. Shunfeng walked over and asked, "What's wrong with you? What happened?"
Yu Wanwan shook her head: "I just suddenly feel a little unwell, I should be fine."
"Let me take a look at you." Fei Han took Yu Wanwan's hand and carefully took her pulse.
Seeing Yu Wanwan clutching her chest, Shunfeng couldn't help but speculate, "Could Wanwan be pregnant? Is she in heat this year?"
Logically speaking, females usually go into heat during the cold season, so it makes sense if Yu Wanwan gets pregnant at this time, but their mating speed might slow down a bit.
Upon hearing this, Mo Zhou couldn't help but look at Yu Wanwan's belly. Because his body temperature was too cold, he hadn't mated with Yu Wanwan recently. If she was really pregnant, the cub would either be Fei Han's or Bai Jing's.
Fei Han was always cautious when examining Yu Wanwan's pulse. He didn't immediately respond to their guesses. After feeling her right hand, he felt her left hand and even pried open Yu Wanwan's eyelids to take a look. After a long while, he finally confirmed: "Wanwan is very healthy and is not pregnant."
Before his partner Mo Zhou could react, Shun Feng sighed in disappointment.
Although it's not a good time to get pregnant, Shunfeng still hopes that a new child can be born into the tribe.
Yu Wanwan scratched her face sheepishly: "I've made you worry again."
This pregnancy misunderstanding has happened twice already, and each time it turned out to be nothing.
If this happened a few more times, Yu Wanwan would start to question her existence.
Mo Zhou didn't care whether there were cubs or not. He even thought that if Yu Wanwan had cubs, she would definitely take away some of his affection. Now that he knew it was another misunderstanding, he patted Yu Wanwan's head with great satisfaction and his face was full of tenderness: "Wanwan, go take a nap after you finish eating. You're probably too tired. We'll set off again tomorrow."
"But is it too late?"
"Don't worry," Shunfeng said. "Our progress is already faster than expected, so we have time to take a break."
Yu Wanwan nodded.
Actually, she felt fine now, but since she was going to be working at heights, if she felt unwell in the air and fell, she would be smashed to pieces.
Let's listen to Mo Zhou and take a break first.
...
Lu Si rushed towards Bai Jing, but halfway there, Bai Jing suddenly left.
With a jerk of his foot, Luce almost lost control and crashed into the deep pit.
"Bai Jing!" Lu Si gritted his teeth, looking angrily in the direction Bai Jing had left.
The fire rings below have now been repaired, which has temporarily contained the schistosomiasis.
Bai Jing noticed a cliff above the pit, which stretched out like a long hand. Standing on it, one could see everything below clearly.
Bai Jing stood on the edge of the cliff, checking for any schistosomiasis that had crawled too far.
Suddenly, a flurry of footsteps sounded behind him. Bai Jing frowned, spun around, and a dark shadow brushed past him, plummeting straight off the cliff.
Bai Jing caught a glimpse of an orc out of the corner of his eye and instinctively reached out to grab the orc's hand.
"Luce? It's you?"
