Chapter 124: The Early Death of the Orc World 12
With the emergence of new herbs, the severe freezing crisis was under control. At Qinghe's reminder, Lin also led a team to investigate the situation from house to house in case any tribe members fell into a coma and could not seek help.
In this snowy season, cold-resistant beastmen like Lin are extremely busy. Even though he couldn't bear to leave the pregnant female at home, he suppressed his reluctance and stepped into the howling cold wind.
Gu knocked on the door of his son's house with a basket on his shoulder. Lin's father and Lin were going to inspect the snow conditions on the mountain to see if there were any signs of an avalanche.
"Female mother." Qinghe smiled. Under the maternal protection provided by the system, her face was rosy, she looked radiant and energetic.
Gu quickly put down the basket and looked at her son's female. Well, the female seemed to be in good condition. Generally speaking, females with weak bodies are more sensitive. She was a little worried that Qinghe would complain about Lin not being able to accompany her during her pregnancy.
After helping the pregnant female to sit aside, Gu tidied up the housework while muttering, "Qinghe, have you eaten the milk fruit that I asked Lin to bring back a few days ago? Eating more milk fruit in the early stages of pregnancy can make you stronger. You should also eat more ice fruit to increase the baby's ability to resist cold..."
Logically, after Lin started a family, Gu would not interfere too much in his son's family affairs. These were things that Lin needed to do for Qinghe after consulting the elders.
But the situation is special now. First, Qinghe's mother died early, and no one probably taught her these common sense. Second, the tribe is in crisis at the moment, and Lin cannot be with Qinghe. So Gu takes on the responsibility of taking care of his son's female.
Qinghe sat on a wooden chair, smiling as she nibbled on a crystal clear ice fruit with frost flowers on the surface. The fruit melted in her mouth, refreshing and bringing some relief to her red face that had been smoked by the kang.
"Cow, what are we going to do today?" She followed behind Gu with her head leaning forward, staring intently at the white wolf ears twitching on her own cow's head. She really wanted to rub them as she saw the fur rustling.
Thinking of this, Qinghe couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Ever since she entered this world, she has been struggling for survival and has never had the opportunity to intimately feel the ears of other female beasts. However, touching beast ears seems to be a very normal intimate interaction between female friends. Should she make a few more friends when the warm season comes?
Pulling his fox ears, Qinghe was a little absent-minded.
Gu put the ingredients he brought into the kitchen one by one, carefully avoiding Qinghe's wandering eyes on the way. In the early stages of pregnancy, females are easily distracted and find it difficult to take care of themselves, which is why she took over from her son to take care of the little female.
When Qinghe came to her senses, the house was already filled with enticing aromas. In the middle of the stone table stood a large bowl of milky fish soup. Without much thought, this must be the recipe that Su Luoluo had spread.
The frozen bony fish still retains its original chewy texture, and the snow-white fish flesh gleams slightly under the candlelight. The misty water vapor shrouds the jade-like fish flesh, which makes people drool just by looking at it.
Qinghe secretly swallowed his saliva, served a bowl to the female first, and then quickly filled his stomach with a move that seemed elegant but was actually like a gust of wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Gu looked at the blush on the little female's face with amusement: "Females will eat more when they are just pregnant, so don't feel embarrassed."
After a pause, she seemed to remember something: "Tastes vary, so Qinghe, if you want to eat something, you must tell me immediately. Don't keep it in your heart. It's not you who want to eat it, but the little naughty thing in your stomach that wants to eat it."
Ah, she is finally going to have her third generation, but she doesn’t know if it is a female baby or an orc baby. Gu’s face was full of smiles, and his eyes wandered over Qinghe’s belly.
After quietly clearing away the dishes, Gu found a piece of brown, hairy bear skin from the room and covered the sleeping Qinghe with it. Then he picked up a few round ground beans and placed them around the fire. The crackling flames danced and released warmth.
Gu opened the window worriedly and looked at the undulating mountains outside. He prayed to the Beast God in his heart, hoping that the Beast God would bless Cang and Lin with everything going well.
On the snow that was frozen solid due to the low temperature, seven or eight snow wolves were running at high speed close to the ground.
Lin spat out the cold blood that splashed into her mouth, Pah, in the temperature of dozens of degrees below zero, the snow was frozen into hard ice chips.
A hint of smile flashed across his icy blue eyes. Wasn't this kid that immature? He shook off the snow on his body and asked, "Lin, is there much snow on the south side of the mountain?"
The slightly smaller snow wolf touched the corner of his mouth that was stung. This was the first time in Lin's lifetime that he had encountered such a severe cold snap. "Father Beast, the snow accumulation in the south of the mountain has not yet reached the scene described by the wizard, but the snow accumulation is already much higher than in previous years."
"Also, we found this at the foot of the mountain." Lin took out two frozen rabbit beastmen from his backpack. Only a weak heartbeat showed any sign of life.
He frowned. The rabbit beastmen were timid and xenophobic, and rarely set foot outside. This time they would actually risk such a great danger to come to the tribe for help. It seemed that they were really in big trouble.
The four-meter-tall white wolf howled several times at the sky, then turned around and led his team to run towards the tribe. Whether to help the rabbit tribe was a matter that would be decided by the tribe leader, the witch doctor, and, yes, the witch.
After arriving at the tribe, Lin watched her beastfather walk away, swung her tail happily, and walked towards her warm little house. She thought that she would have nothing to do until the rabbit beastman was rescued.
Gu opened the door and looked at the white wolf wrapped in snow outside in surprise: "Lin, you guys are back so soon?"
She looked back, with a puzzled look on her face: "Didn't your beast father come back with you?"
The white wolf shook his white fur on the porch in front of the house, carefully controlling the strength and angle to avoid splashing the female. "We found two rabbit beastmen halfway. The beast father brought our team back first. He should be discussing things with the tribe leader now."
Feeling that the snow on his body had almost fallen off, Rin transformed into a human form and could not wait to go into the house to dry the snow water on the animal skin. He immediately searched for the figure of his female with the corner of his eye.
Knowing the beastmen's possessiveness towards pregnant females, Gu pointed to the door and said, "Qinghe just fell asleep. Since you are coming back for a few days, I will be going back soon."
"Do you need me to take you there?"
"No, no." Gu quickly refused, looking at his red eyes with some heartache, "You should also go and rest. Your beast father will come to pick me up after discussing things. I still need to pack some things."
Hearing this, Lin, who had been running around in the snow for several days, suddenly felt sleepy. He opened the door gently, tiptoed to find a comfortable position on the bed, hugged the sleeping little female, and his heart suddenly felt at ease, and he soon fell into a deep sleep.
Outside the room, Gu picked out a fat and tender cuckoo beast from the storage room and prepared to make a pot of cuckoo chicken stewed with ground beans. She couldn't help but be absent-minded as she heard the "thump thump thump" sound of the cutting board, and she didn't know how her rough beast was doing now.
