Even carrying a heavy burden, Baihu did not slow down at all and quickly covered half the distance.
At night, they found a place to rest as usual.
Dinner consisted of boiled rice noodles and roasted meat.
Bai Jing's cooking skills are getting better and better. The roasted meat is very fragrant and the chili peppers make people's mouths water.
The wind was quite strong in the wild today, and Bai Jing was worried that the females would catch a cold, so he dug a hole in a tree, put Yu Wanwan inside, and slept at the entrance of the hole to keep out the cold wind.
Yu Wanwan originally wanted Bai Jing to sleep in the tree hole as well, but the space was not big, so she had to put an animal skin for him.
The tenderness of the little female filled Bai Jing's heart. He lovingly licked Yu Wanwan several more times and then washed her face.
...
It was still dark.
Yu Wanwan woke up with a sharp pain in her chest.
She initially thought it was just an upset stomach, but the wetness in her lower body told her it was menstrual cramps.
She never had menstrual cramps before, but she had been using cold water for a while and was secretly pleased that it hadn't worked. Now that her period has come, all the problems have come back to haunt her.
Bai Jing twitched his nose in his sleep. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the little female was pale and clutching her stomach in pain, unable to speak. He was so frightened that he quickly transformed into human form and held Yu Wanwan in his arms.
"Wanwan, what's wrong?"
"Water... hot water..." Yu Wanwan struggled to utter a few words.
Upon hearing this, Bai Jing quickly took out the pink fruit shell, filled it with water, warmed it in his palm, and then placed it near Yu Wanwan's lips.
After drinking hot water, the stomach pain lessened a bit, but it was still very uncomfortable.
She was in a daze, and she grabbed Bai Jing's hot hand and placed it on her stomach, using it as a hot water bottle.
Beneath his palm lay smooth, soft skin. Normally, Bai Jing would have been distracted long ago, but now his entire mind was captivated by Yu Wanwan, leaving him no time to pay attention to anything else.
With Bai Jing's warm hand, Yu Wanwan gradually fell asleep.
However, Bai Jing was unaware of the situation and thought Yu Wanwan had fainted. Without thinking, he put her in the animal skin and carried her in his mouth towards the tribe.
The violent jolting nearly killed Yu Wanwan on the spot. She called Bai Jing's name twice, but Bai Jing was running too fast and her voice was too soft to be heard.
Fortunately, she was blessed with good fortune and survived. At the last moment, Bai Jing rushed back to the tribe and carried Yu Wanwan all the way to the shaman's house.
"Witch doctor! Grandpa witch doctor! Please come quickly and see my female! She's dying!"
Bai Jing's words were a wake-up call for both of them.
The witch doctor, who was still dreaming, woke up instantly when he heard that the female was dying.
Yu Wanwan opened her eyes and clutched the hem of her skirt tightly.
"Come quick, she looks like she's bleeding!"
"Bai Jing, I'm fine... I just have a stomachache."
Yu Wanwan was very flustered. What if the beastmen didn't know what menstruation was and mistook her spot for a wound and bandaged it up?
Bai Jing pressed Yu Wanwan's shoulders and placed her on the stone table.
Yu Wanwan couldn't bear to lie down; she clung to Bai Jing's hand and refused to let go.
As they struggled, the witch doctor also smelled the blood on Yu Wanwan's body.
That taste was completely different from the blood from an injury!
He slapped Bai Jing on the head hard and yelled, "Bai Jing, what are you doing! The little female isn't injured at all!"
Yu Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, the witch doctor's reputation was well-deserved!
"She's in heat!"
Yu Wanwan: "??!"
No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!
Bai Jing froze on the spot: "Going...going into heat?"
The witch doctor snorted, "I always tell you to learn how to take care of females, but you never do. Now you don't even know when a female is in heat, and you're bothering her in the middle of the night."
He pointed to the animal hide containing Yu Wanwan, which was now a mess and no longer resembled a hide.
Bai Jing moved closer to Yu Wanwan and sniffed her neck.
When he saw the little female was pale and smelled strongly of blood, he thought she was injured and never considered the possibility of her being in heat.
Now, if you smell it carefully, it is indeed different from the bloody smell; it has a sweet aroma.
A blush appeared on Bai Jing's face, and Yu Wanwan also blushed at his actions.
The witch doctor looked at the two people in front of him and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, since everything's fine now, go back and stop bothering me."
Bai Jing headed out and wrapped the fish, Wanwan, in animal skin.
The witch doctor rubbed his aching back, then suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, females usually go into heat during the second snowfall of the cold season. The first snowfall has just ended, so it's probably because the little female is too weak. You should leave her with me for now and don't move her around. Tomorrow I'll go up the mountain to gather some medicine to help her recover and give it to her."
Bai Jing prioritized Yu Wanwan's health and had no objections at the moment. He gently comforted Yu Wanwan, "Wanwan, you should stay at the witch doctor's house for the next few days. I'll go back and get you animal hides and food."
Hearing that she would be kept in the hospital for observation because of her period, Yu Wanwan was extremely embarrassed. She took Bai Jing's arm and whispered, "I'm really fine, take me home."
Her clothes were all dirty; even if she were to stay, she should at least change into clean clothes.
"Listen to me, I'll stay with you these next few days."
"That's not the issue..."
Why is that?
Yu Wanwan scratched her head, hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Actually, I do this every month. It's nothing serious. Take me back."
