Chapter 125 The Early Death of the Orc World 13
Over the next two days, the wind and snow outside the window became stronger and stronger, making the wooden windows rattle.
Qing He lowered his eyes helplessly and looked at the large human-shaped pendant behind him. After being away for a few days, Lin became more and more clingy.
Lin rubbed the slightly bulging belly of his female gently, then tiptoed to the kitchen to show off her skills. The female mother said that she must pay attention to nutritional supplements in the early stages of pregnancy. Two days ago, when she left Qiangu, she held her son's ears and gave him many instructions.
The wooden window frame was pushed open a crack, and the cold air spread into the house through the crack. The skin of the long-haired animal became soft and smooth after being nitrated with limestone and exposed to the sun. It was very warm to wrap around the body and strictly isolate the cold wind outside.
Qinghe exhaled white air and looked outside. It was snowing heavily. There was a thick layer of snow on the ground in front of the house. Huge, crystal clear icicles hung on the solid eaves. She gestured with her hands out of curiosity. Some of them were thicker than her arms.
The fluttering snowflakes were blown into the air by the strong wind, and it was difficult to see people from about two meters away. Qinghe felt a little dizzy as she watched. Just as she was about to close the window, a beast figure staggered towards her on the white snow.
Juan came to find Lin for a meeting. Well, the word "meeting" was also taught by the witch. The rescued rabbit people finally woke up.
Lin looked at Qinghe soothingly, then transformed into a beast and followed Juan into the snowstorm.
Soup was bubbling on the stove in the kitchen. The roasted meat had been cut into pieces and neatly skewered on wooden sticks and placed in a stone basin. Qinghe fiddled with the fire, and an orange flame instantly rose. The firewood crackled and splashed small sparks, but it was immediately extinguished after hitting the circle of ice bricks around it.
It's impossible to go out in this kind of weather. No wonder beastmen and females can't help but engage in reproductive activities during the long snowy season. It's really boring.
Qinghe walked along the ice corridor at the back door to check the firewood storage situation. Lin had just cleared the snow on the roof, and it seemed that there was no risk of collapse.
The toilet connected to the back of the firewood room has also been repaired. Before, there were wisps of cold wind that would seep in through the cracks in the stones, but after the cracks were filled with plaster, there was no longer the embarrassing situation of people shivering in the toilet due to the freezing.
Back in the cabin, Qinghe took off the hairy animal skin. The long-toothed animal meat in the kitchen was rolling in the pot. With a light poke with a stone, the pink animal meat immediately split into two halves.
She tasted the saltiness, then scooped a small spoonful of salt from the stone jar and put it into the soup. Salt was particularly precious in the snow season, and every grain should not be wasted.
The room was silent except for the crackling of the fire. Qinghe left half a pot of soup for Lin. After dinner, she took out the dried sour dates from the storage room.
The bright red sour dates add some vitality to the snow, and the sweet and sour taste is especially loved by pregnant females.
It was already midnight when Lin came back. Although he was very careful, he still woke up Qinghe who was in a light sleep.
"Is the tribe going to send people to help the rabbit people?" Her sparkling fox eyes were filled with the light of just waking up, and her rosy face was full of worry.
"The clan leader hasn't made a decision yet. Besides, it's snowing so hard right now that it's too easy for people to get lost. We should wait until the snow stops before making any plans." Lin waved his hand, signaling Qinghe to stay where he was. He was feeling cold now, so it would be better for him not to get close to the female.
"Have you eaten yet?" She was feeling sleepy, but she tried to stay awake. "There's a half pot of soup and a few ground beans simmering in the kitchen stove."
"You should go to bed soon." Lin coaxed the little female, and only after she went into her room to rest did he go to the kitchen to look for food with an empty stomach. He had just been to the clan leader's house with a bunch of elders, so he just had a couple of bites.
The next morning, the wind and snow had died down a lot. I couldn't wait to have a few days off, so I went to the woods with my friends to look for prey.
During each snow break, large predators that do not migrate will attack nearby orc tribes, so it becomes a rare activity for young, strong and idle orcs to look for prey to satisfy their hunger.
Qinghe was awakened by a neighbor knocking on the door.
The female with bear ears blinking her innocent big eyes is so adorable.
Honey was also new here. The female, who had just moved away from her parents and had lived a shameless and undisciplined life, suddenly realized that she was bored.
She quietly looked at the little female fox in front of her. There was still a hint of sleepiness on her palm-sized face. You know, before the arrival of the witch, Qinghe was one of the most popular females in the tribe.
Mi's voice was a little hesitant: "Qinghe, you have a baby?!"
???
Is Lin so powerful?
I actually had a baby during my first snow season!
Qinghe twitched the corners of his mouth. The female in front of him was really easy to understand. It was clear what she was thinking.
After inviting the person into the house, Mi revealed her situation clearly under her subtle questions.
The youngest female child who was loved by everyone, had three beastman brothers. She was abducted by her childhood sweetheart just when she came of age. Curious about the world without parental supervision, she ran out on impulse following her childhood sweetheart.
"But where is your orc?" Qinghe looked around but didn't see Lin, feeling a little strange.
"Eh? Did I tell you?" Mi boldly touched her new friend's bulging belly. "The snow is about to stop today, so some of the beastmen went to the mountains to look for food."
The soft touch made her unable to let go. Oh, no wonder her own beastman liked to touch her plump little belly. It really was very nice to pinch.
Here, the two newly acquainted females are enjoying each other's company, but over there, the situation of the hunting team is somewhat serious.
They walked around the mountain and found several bodies of Brokentooths that had killed each other and were covered in ice and snow.
According to the tribal historical songs, if too many animals die during the snow season, the Warm-machine orcs will face a food shortage in the next year. As the ice and snow melt, the rotting animal carcasses will bring a terrible plague.
Thinking of the horrific scene described by the witch doctor, the faces of the beastmen present were solemn.
"What should I do?"
"Are we going to relocate again this time?"
"No, my females have only been pregnant for a short time. During the last migration, many females did not survive..."
