Over here, Yu Wanwan had already eaten her fill, and the three males in the family took turns coming out to eat as well. They hurriedly finished tidying up the cave before going to bed.
Yu Wanwan washed herself clean and lay comfortably on the bed.
I've been running around outside these past few days, and it feels so good to be home now.
Mo Zhou smiled as he watched her stretch out her limbs, like a little kitten, lazy and cute.
The snake's tail coiled around Yu Wanwan and kissed her lips, squeezing deeper into her mouth amidst a tender atmosphere.
...
The next morning, Bai Jing summoned the orcs in the tribe to discuss what to do next. A group of orcs came to the entrance of Bai Jing's cave.
From afar, they saw the ink boat perched in front of the cave, and were somewhat afraid to go in.
Mo Zhou lazily raised his eyes, then tilted his head and fell asleep again.
Yu Wanwan happened to come out and saw them, and waved to them, but the beastmen wouldn't move an inch. Helpless, Yu Wanwan had no choice but to call Bai Jing out.
Finally, they chose to go to the open space outside the cave.
Given the tribe's current situation, attacking the elephant tribe in the short term is definitely unrealistic. What they need to do now is to recuperate as soon as possible, heal their injuries, and find the shamans and tribesmen who have been scattered elsewhere.
Bai Jing entrusted the task of finding people to You Yi. His partner was also on the list of wanderers. You Yi immediately agreed and couldn't wait to lead several orcs to find the witch doctor and the others.
The tribe still needed food, so Bai Jing decided to lead the group out on a collective hunt and then distribute the hunted prey to everyone.
The problem is that if they take people out, the tribe will not have enough manpower. It's not just that they won't have time to repair the tribe; the most important thing is to prevent the elephant tribe from launching another sneak attack.
The best solution would be to have Fei Han and Mo Zhou take care of the tribe, but they still harbor resentment towards the tribe, and the tribe also rejects Mo Zhou. In that case, trouble might arise again.
Bai Jing was in a real headache.
Just then, Yu Wanwan overheard the conversation and felt sorry for Bai Jing. She mustered up her courage, walked into the middle of a group of orcs, took Bai Jing's hand, and whispered in his ear, "Bai Jing, I know the tribe needs manpower to defend against the elephant tribe's sneak attack. Why don't we build some traps for defense?"
"trap?"
Yu Wanwan nodded: "This is a method from my hometown."
Since it concerned the little female's hometown and origin, Bai Jing glanced at the beastmen around him, told them to wait there for a while, and then took Yu Wanwan's hand and entered the cave.
After making sure they couldn't hear her, Yu Wanwan continued, "There are many kinds of traps. For example, we can dig a pit around the tribe and lay branches on it for cover. If the elephant tribe comes over, they will fall into it."
Bai Jing nodded, a look of joy on his face: "That's a good idea."
Yu Wanwan continued, "We can also make a row of spikes and secure them with ropes. If someone triggers the mechanism, the spikes will shoot out."
She racked her brains and mentioned several types of traps, including watchtowers and protective nets, hoping to help Bai Jing.
Upon hearing the little female's suggestion, Bai Jing became even more excited.
With these traps, the tribe's defenses would be greatly enhanced.
Finally, Yu Wanwan added, "We can ask Mo Zhou to provide some venom to enhance the trap's power. If everyone knows that Mo Zhou helped, they will definitely thank him."
Bai Jing smiled and gently pinched Yu Wanwan's nose, saying affectionately, "Wanwan is such a clever little devil."
Upon exiting the cave, Bai Jing informed the beastmen about the traps and protective nets.
This was the first time they had ever heard of a trap, and knowing its power, they admired Bai Jing even more. They quickly and enthusiastically began discussing how to set up the trap, and so on.
When the discussion ended, Bai Jing returned and said to Yu Wanwan, "I'm going to lead the tribe out on a collective hunt. Wanwan, wait for me at home."
Yu Wanwan nodded.
Looking at the little female's obedient appearance, Bai Jing held her in his arms, his tone full of pride: "My Wanwan is beautiful and smart. Everyone says your idea is very good. When I come back from hunting this afternoon, I will start setting up the traps."
Yu Wanwan looked up at him, her tone full of concern: "Aren't you too tired?"
Bai Jing shook his head and kissed her forehead: "Wait for me to come back."
For the next few days, Bai Jing was busy hunting and building traps, and he was rarely seen in the cave.
Although Bai Jing didn't say anything, Yu Wanwan still felt sorry for his exhaustion and wanted to help share the burden. She begged Mo Zhou or Fei Han to go out to the outskirts of the tribe to check the situation when they had time.
After some time, watching Bai Jing lead a group of white tigers away from the tribe, Yu Wanwan sat at the cave entrance weaving bamboo baskets. Mo Zhou came over and chased away the midday heat.
Fei Han was cooking in the kitchen, and the aroma wafted out of the cave entrance.
Mo Zhou suddenly stretched out his snake tail and pointed outside, saying to Yu Wanwan, "Wanwan, someone is coming."
Upon hearing this, Yu Wanwan raised her head. Sure enough, an orc was gradually approaching and walking straight towards them.
This is the first time in the past few days that orcs have come to visit. Ever since everyone learned that Mo Zhou was here, all the orcs have intentionally or unintentionally avoided this mountain area. The females have even followed the example of Yu Wanwan when she first came to the tribe, keeping to themselves and rarely going out.
Yu Wanwan was surprised when an orc suddenly appeared at her door, and it was a female at that.
The female also saw Mo Zhou, but dared not get too close, and only waved to Yu Wanwan from outside the cave.
Yu Wanwan walked out of the cave. Mo Zhou lifted his eyelids to take a look, but found that it was just an old female, so he closed his eyes again.
