Its fall to the ground brought the other two beasts out of their emotions. They looked at the fallen beast in panic and stopped all movements.
After Xuan confirmed that Meng Yuqing was still there, he turned his attention to the fallen beast. It was still struggling and had not completely fainted.
The other two beasts had no idea what was going on with the beast on the ground. They looked at Xuan warily, and then looked at the beast on the ground with some fear.
Perhaps the unknown is the most terrifying thing. They gave up fighting, turned around and ran away without looking back.
Xuan stood on the branch and watched them run away coldly without stopping them.
Rather than chasing them and killing them, he now wanted to protect Meng Yuqing more. He was shocked by Meng Yuqing's sudden "disappearance" just now.
It's just a wild beast. It ran away. It's no big deal.
After the two beasts ran away, Xuan jumped down from the tree, looked around carefully, and then picked up Meng Yuqing.
Meng Yuqing looked at the beast that had completely fainted on the ground and slowly walked over.
Although he always used the word "smallest" to describe the beast, when he really stood in front of the beast, he had to sigh that this thing was quite big and he was not even big enough to fill the gaps between its teeth.
Xuan slowly walked up to him and sat down, saying softly, "This white-spotted beast is not yet old enough to leave its parent beast."
Meng Yuqing suddenly realized, "No wonder he is the youngest."
At this point, he seemed to remember something and turned to look at Xuan. "Can't a young wild animal live away from its parents in one or two years? How can it grow this big in just one or two years?"
This is too incredible! The orcs will cry with envy.
Xuan pondered for a moment before explaining, "Small and medium-sized beasts will leave their parents once every two years, while large beasts will leave their parents once every three years, but no more than five years."
Meng Yuqing was horrified. It was terrifying that such a large beast had such a short infancy. Well, it takes orcs more than ten years to grow to this size. He continued to ask, "How old is this beast?"
Xuan stood up and walked around the white-spotted beast on the ground, then returned to sit behind Meng Yuqing. "It's been four years, right? I was about to leave my family and live on my own, but I didn't expect you to catch me."
After saying that, Xuan looked at Meng Yuqing and smiled brightly, "You are very powerful."
Meng Yuqing felt a little embarrassed by the praise. He was the one who secretly shot arrows from behind. It was just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. In fact, it was mainly Xuan's credit.
"Why are there three large wild beasts here? Aren't they said to each occupy a territory and live without interfering with each other?" Meng Yuqing was a little puzzled. This was different from what he heard in the tribe and what he saw in the "Beast World Continent Information Encyclopedia".
Xuan swept his tail and said, "This one should be following its parent beast to seize the territory of the howling beast. Some large beasts cannot conquer the other beasts alone, so they will take the cubs with them to seize the territory when they are about to grow up but have not yet left. It is easier to succeed when two fight one."
Is there such a thing? Meng Yuqing was a little surprised. "What happens after we snatch it? Will the cub be driven away?"
Xuan answered without hesitation, "Yes, but the cubs can return to their previous place to live. If it is not occupied by other large beasts during this period, they can easily inherit the original territory."
Meng Yuqing understood that after grabbing a good territory, the big one would not go back, and the old territory would be given to the small one.
"However, can the remaining one hold on after the cubs leave?" Meng Yuqing thought about it carefully and discovered the drawbacks of this method.
"Some of them are safe, and some are not. It's not easy for those who can't hold their original territory to return, because the original territory has changed hands." Xuan stretched out his hind legs and scratched his ears, then returned his gaze to the white-spotted beast on the ground, "Let's bring it back intact!"
His tone suddenly became very cheerful.
Meng Yuqing then remembered that there was still a large beast alive on the ground. "Let's deal with it. It's inconvenient to carry such a big beast."
"It's very convenient. I can take it back. This is a large beast. The people in the tribe will be surprised if you catch it. The weapons you make are very powerful." Xuan said excitedly, "You are the most powerful sub-beast."
Meng Yuqing was so praised that she touched her face with the back of her hand. It felt so hot. Xuan was really too straightforward, sincere and frank.
"But it's very troublesome to bring it alive. If I kill it, it might rot before it reaches the tribe in this weather. I can't fit such a big and complete beast in my bag right now." Meng Yuqing said with some embarrassment. It was still early spring when they killed the shadow beast before, and it was barely enough to bring it back after a five-day journey.
Now that spring is over and summer has arrived, it will become smelly if you bring it back.
Xuan tilted his head and said, "If we continue traveling as fast as before, we can reach the tribe in three days."
. . . . . .
"This will stink too." Meng Yuqing wrinkled his nose.
Xuan glanced at him before speaking, "When we go hunting, we sometimes travel for several days. We kill all the prey we catch, and this kind of grass grows everywhere on the earth."
As he spoke, he pulled out a handful of grass from the ground and said, “If you rub this grass on the prey, it will not spoil within five days, but it can only be used once for one prey.
Furthermore, the prey cannot be eaten within five days after the application of the herb. Only after the effect of the herb has completely worn off can it be eaten normally."
Xuan lowered his eyes and said, his voice suddenly softened, "This is a herb known to everyone on earth. It is also the only medicine known to everyone. We know it instinctively since birth. Don't say this to others anymore, okay?"
Meng Yuqing's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She had known this instinctively since she was born...
He was silent for a moment before speaking, "I understand."
"Well, I will kill this beast when it wakes up, and then we will bring it back intact. You don't have to worry." Xuan raised his head and looked at Meng Yuqing, his tone returning to its previous state.
"Okay, don't worry." He met Xuan's clear eyes and agreed with a smile.
The white-spotted beast woke up after about half an hour. Meng Yuqing calculated that if an orc was shot with this kind of arrow, the effect would probably only last that long.
As for Mu sleeping for an hour, it was entirely because he ate too much in one bite.
In the end, it was Xuan who dealt with the white spot beast. It was not that Meng Yuqing was unwilling to deal with it, but that he was simply unable to do it with his ability.
The only knife he could use was a bone spur scimitar, which was coated with black thorn grass juice, so it was impossible for him to use it to fight.
If you let him do it with a stone knife, that would be animal abuse.
While applying antiseptic grass to the dead white-spotted beast, Meng Yuqing asked the system in his mind.
"Why has the exploration of this antiseptic grass never given me any feedback?"
. . . . . .
The system was silent for a long time before speaking.
"Because it's a kind of grass known to everyone on the continent, it's common knowledge. Therefore, the system didn't list it as something that the host needs to discover and promote. It was classified with ordinary stones and soil, so there was no special reminder."
Meng Yuqing didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the system's voice was a little awkward.
