Chapter 43 Bafeng: I Need You
Shanye scratched his head and said, "My mother said you know how to use herbs. If the orcs in the tribe feel unwell, they can all come to you for treatment, so you don't have to go picking rice crackers."
When these words were spoken, Bai Yue was stunned. She had never expected that her position in the Goat Tribe was so high.
She tried to explain, "I only know a few simple herbs, nothing else."
But when Shanye heard these words, it was as if they had not been spoken.
His eyes were filled with tears.
Looking at Bai Yue, he choked up and said, "It's different. If you know the herbs, you can save lives. We don't know them. If we get sick, we will die. No orc can survive."
In the primitive society of natural selection, the lives of beastmen are similar to those of animals.
Once injured or sick, the only outcome is self-recovery or death.
Bai Yue didn't know how important an orc who knew about medicinal herbs was to the tribe.
Faced with Shanye's high hopes, she was unable to say anything in rebuttal for a moment.
To say she's just an imposter? That's not entirely true.
At least she did know a few herbs.
Bai Yue, who was correcting herself here at this moment, had no idea that 24 hours later, this worry would no longer exist, because there would be bigger worries waiting for her.
"Thank you. I'll take it all without hesitation." Bai Yue thought for a long time and finally accepted it.
Since the Goat Tribe welcomed her regardless of her past, she should also integrate into the tribe with the same attitude.
"But why do we have to pick rice crackers after the wind blows?" She didn't have the original owner's memory, so she could only ask and guess many things.
"It's going to snow." Shanye pointed to the sky, then to the cave next door. "The snow will fall there. The rice crackers will be crushed if they stay on the tree."
After the conversation, Bai Yue learned that rice crackers can only be stored in a dark and ventilated place. They will rot if there is water or if it is too hot.
Bai Yue doesn't have this kind of worry.
She has space.
With Shan Ye's reminder, Bai Yue decided to pick all the rice crackers still on the trees in the wild before the heavy snow fell.
The few young cubs from the mountains came just for this matter, and left together after the task was completed.
The little jujube tree walked crookedly.
Funny and hilarious.
Bai Yue watched them walk away from where she stood until Xue came to her side.
Xue has been living in the cave where Bai Yue used to live these days. During this period, Shan Duo caused trouble several times, and was finally kicked to the ground by Xue, and never appeared again.
"Lord Bai Yue."
"Xue, what's wrong?" Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Bai Yue asked.
"It's about to snow. I want to ask the White Fox Tribe to send some animal skins." Xue hoped that Bai Yue would take the initiative to return to the White Fox Tribe. After all, the witch doctor and Lord Bai Yue were there.
The White Fox Tribe had no problem getting through this winter.
But in these few days, she clearly felt that Lord Bai Yue would be happier here than in the White Fox Tribe.
So she chose not to mention those words.
Bai Yue's expression changed as he tried to guess what she meant, but in the end he agreed to her request.
"Okay, do you need Bafeng to take you back?"
Xue shook her head slightly.
"I'm not going back."
"Then how did you get the animal skins from the White Fox Tribe?" Bai Yue asked curiously.
Hearing this, Xue's eyes suddenly curved up: "Someone will bring it to us."
Somehow.
As soon as Xue finished speaking, a familiar male white fox appeared in the Gobi Desert.
Bai Yue narrowed her eyes slightly.
It was him, the white fox male named Cang.
"Can he, an orc, do that?"
"Can."
Xue doesn't care about the male's life or death at all.
Then he said, "There is one more thing I want to discuss with you."
"you say."
"The Goat Tribe found some rice crackers, and I want Cang to pick some and take them back to the White Fox Tribe. In exchange, I plan to trade them with salt."
This incident was beyond Bai Yue's expectations.
After all, rice crackers are wild.
Whoever finds it can pick it, and there is no need for any tribal material subsidies.
"I can't make the decision on this matter. Perhaps you can discuss it with Patriarch Shanzheng." Bai Yue was helpless.
Xue nodded in understanding: "I'll go talk to him." But before talking to the orcs from the goat tribe, he had to tell her first.
To show that Bai Yue is an orc she respects in her heart.
"Then I'll go back first, Master Bai Yue."
"Okay. Be careful on the road."
The two ended their conversation and separated.
Bai Yue knew that this was not her world, and there might be differences in seasons, but she never expected that it would snow that night as soon as the autumn wind blew.
The white and fine first snow, bringing with it cold air, instantly swept across the entire Orc continent.
That night, Bai Yue was woken up by the cold.
...Why is it so cold?
The system had not yet been successfully upgraded, so naturally no one answered her question.
The cave was divided into two rooms. The inner one was small, and the outer one was large. To make it easier for Bai Yue to get up at night, firewood was burned in the outer cave all night.
At midnight, the heat of the flames will illuminate the cave inside.
These days Bai Yue slept in the inner cave and Ba Feng slept in the outer cave.
“Huff, huff.”
The wind whistled between the mountain walls and blew into the cave, causing Bai Yue to shiver uncontrollably.
cold.
It's so cold.
How come winter comes right after summer ends?
Bai Yue pulled the animal skin tighter around her body and put it on after finding a thicker one from the space.
Feeling that the temperature in his body had returned to normal, he walked out of the cave to look for Ba Feng.
What caught my eye was a black wolf lying in no sleeping position, with all four legs facing the sky and not moving at all.
Could it be...that he froze to death?
Thinking of this, Bai Yue quickly stepped forward and pushed the black wolf's head: "Bafeng, Bafeng, wake up."
The black wolf, who was still dreaming, smelled a familiar scent and licked Bai Yue's hand with his tongue without even opening his eyes.
“....”
Bai Yue looked at the sticky saliva on her arm and almost lost her mind.
Dirty.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so he simply clenched his fist and punched him in the wolf's head.
"Baphon!"
Ba Feng, who was yelled at and beaten, woke up instantly. His eyes were still a little confused at first, but after noticing the rapid drop in temperature, he instantly turned into a human form.
"Madam, winter is coming."
Bai Yue was furious.
"How dare you say that? If I hadn't woken up from the cold, I would have frozen to death tonight."
"..." Ba Feng's face showed a rare trace of embarrassment.
He shifted his gaze slightly and explained, "I'm a wind spirit. The lower the temperature, the faster I digest my energy, so I'm more likely to fall asleep."
After hearing the explanation, Bai Yue finally forgave him.
"Go find Xue quickly. She's a female, so she'll definitely wake up from the cold."
As he said that, he pulled Bafeng's arm and prepared to walk out, but the male did not move at all.
"Why are you still standing there?" Bai Yue turned around, looking angrily.
Ba Feng was so itchy that he wanted to touch it, but he didn't come back to his senses until he met Bai Yue's fiery gaze.
"Ahem. Snow doesn't like our help."
"Why not? She's a female and afraid of the cold." Bai Yue's teeth were chattering when she spoke because of the cold.
Seeing this, Ba Feng stepped forward and hugged Bai Yue. The warmth from his body directly drove away the coldness in Bai Yue.
"Because she has Cang."
"And I need you."
