It's raining. Before the rain, the experienced big tiger sensed the omen of rain and took the two cubs to shelter from the rain in advance.
Song Xu saw her sleeping on the beach all the time and thought she didn't have her own nest. Only then did he realize that she had a nest nearby that could shelter from the wind and rain.
There is a spacious cave on a reef rock by the sea. When he got to the bottom of the cave, he found that it was difficult to jump into the cave because he was biting a snake that was too long. The big tiger let go of the snake in his mouth and let him climb up by himself.
Song Xu hugged Wumu's neck and hung on him. Fortunately, he didn't become the target of the big tiger's choke because of his small size.
The big tiger, who had lost his orc rationality, didn't seem to feel that the two cubs were now adult orcs. He only remembered that he was a big tiger with cubs. He still treated them the same way as children. He would bite and drag them away when he wanted to move his position.
Under the cave, reefs are stacked up into stairs, allowing the big cat to easily jump from one step to the top. Snake has to climb up slowly. He is tall, so his head reached the fourth step, while his tail was still under the big tiger's feet.
The big tiger waited for them to reach the cave completely before jumping up and resting his head on a smooth stone in the cave with familiarity.
Heavy rain began to fall, and the wind blew in from outside, and it was a little cold. I don't know what's wrong with the temperature in this place. It's very hot during the day and very cold at night. It's very hot on sunny days and very cold on rainy days.
Song Xu looked at Snake, then at the tiger, moved to the side of the tiger's belly, buried himself in the fur, and felt warm instantly. Although Wumu didn't say anything, Song Xu looked at his eyes and felt that he might have made a decisive choice. He waved to him and asked him to cover himself with a blanket to warm up.
Wumu looked at the big tiger hesitantly. In fact, he was more accustomed to fighting with the big tiger. Such intimacy made him feel at a loss, but he still compromised and leaned against the big tiger. He reluctantly used his tail to surround the tiger and the squirrel together.
There were three beastmen, one was sane, one was not, and the other was in the middle of the two. They were sometimes good and sometimes bad, all looking at the heavy rain outside.
The cave is next to the sea, and there are reefs and beaches below, as well as some low-lying ditches and pools connected to the sea. In the distance, the gray sea surface was surging with water vapor or waves. The rain hit the rocks and the water, making a noisy sound.
It was really pleasant to lie down and watch the rain quietly on a rainy day, even if there were still many troubles that had not been solved, but that would be after the rain.
Song Xu put his feet under the tiger's belly, his head resting on the snake, and lay horizontally looking outside, thinking about something.
When the rain was lighter, the big tiger stood up and stretched his waist. His body was as long as a truck, and he shook his big head lightly. The layers of hair on his body were clearly visible, and the small area on his belly that was trampled by Song Xu was particularly conspicuous. The big tiger didn't care about this. After doing the wake-up exercises like all cats, she looked back at the two in the den, and swept her tail over their heads as if to say hello, and then jumped down the cave.
She was going to hunt, and she didn't plan to take the two of them with her, probably because she thought they would be a nuisance.
Song Xu looked at the tiger's posture as it went down the mountain, and exclaimed: "This forearm muscle is really a boss."
A female gangster with a tiger tattoo on her arm suddenly appeared in her mind.
Shaking her head, Song Xu quickly got up and shook Wu Mu: "Hurry, while Heisen is not at home, let's go down and catch some fish to fill our stomachs!"
Heisen is a big tiger who is afraid of water. If he sees them go into the water, he will roar, and then drag them back personally, so they don't have many opportunities to go into the sea.
Song Xu doesn't like eating fish very much, but she will go with Wumu whenever she has the chance. She is always worried about Wumu's current state. He might suddenly forget who he is while swimming in the sea, and then forget to go ashore. And if she goes into the sea with him, she can also give Wumu some suggestions, such as what to eat.
"Don't eat this, Wumu. Many jellyfish are poisonous. Let's swim farther away." Song Xu stopped Wumu from trying to eat jellyfish, and warned him, "Although you are also a poisonous snake, it doesn't mean you are not afraid of poison, especially from the sea. You haven't eaten it before, so you can't eat it randomly. Let's eat something normal."
Wumu has always been very easy to keep. Basically, he eats whatever he encounters. When he ran into a big sea turtle head-on, he opened his mouth to swallow it, but was held down by Song Xu.
"No! These are all shells. What are you going to eat? Turtle shells are so hard to digest! Let's just eat some ordinary fish."
Wumu ate a belly full of fish, while Song Xu emerged from the sea holding a large ball of kelp, smiling happily: "Great, we'll eat kelp today!" She hadn't eaten crispy kelp for a long time.
The two of them walked up the mountain dripping wet, and were seen by a big tiger who was coming back with food. At that time, one was at the edge of the forest and the other was at the seaside. They couldn't see each other's expressions, but Song Xu felt like when she was a child, she was naughty outside and came back covered in mud and was caught by her parents.
It's strange, she didn't have this experience when she was a child.
The big tiger dropped the primitive beast in its mouth and rushed forward roaring. The big snake was chased by the tiger and wandered on the beach again. Song Xu was once again let go by the big tiger because of his small size and the cover of the big snake.
They drove them back to the cave, but the big tiger didn't let them go. It blocked the cave entrance. Its huge body was backlit, looking majestic and ferocious. Its open mouth was still filled with the blood of the primitive beast. If it was a little less courageous, it would be scared to death now.
Song Xu squatted beside Wu Mu, reducing his presence, chewing kelp silently, and listening to the big tiger's teachings. The language barrier was not a problem. After all, it was obvious that a mother as fierce as a tiger would say the same words when teaching her children.
"Aoaowuwu! Aowu! Roar!"
"Heisen's words are: 'I told you not to go to the sea, but you didn't listen. Your skin is itchy, right?'" Song Xu quietly translated with Wu Mu.
"Aowuaowu! Roar!"
"This sentence is: 'You took Song Xu with you. You are so brave!'"
Wu Mu believed in her simultaneous translation, and his eyes showed doubts about himself. He was wondering why Song Xu could understand Heisen's words, but he couldn't.
The big tiger finally stopped roaring and placed the primitive beast corpse he brought in front of the two cubs. Even though she had tried twice before and Song Xu and the others didn't eat it in the end, she still brought back food this time and tried to feed them.
After a few days of torturing each other, the big tiger also discovered that the two cubs were not happy to eat primitive beasts, but liked to go to the sea to catch fish to eat, and would also chew leaves in the forest like some primitive beasts.
Why are her cubs different from her? The big tiger couldn't think about too complicated questions, but she understood the cubs' diet.
Song Xu found that once again, the big tiger mother came back from hunting without bringing primitive beasts, but directly dragged a tree back, and there were countless green and yellow fruits on the tree.
Song Xu had never seen this fruit before, it looked like mango, and you could smell a fragrance when you got close. The generous tiger mother was so generous even when she brought back food. Such a tree, including fruits, flowers and leaves, is enough for Song Xu to eat for many days.
Not only that, the tiger mother also tried to catch fish for Wumu at the seaside, but she could not overcome her fear of the sea and did not dare to go too deep. She wandered impatiently in the shallow water area, and finally pulled out some shells and crabs, and a slow-moving sea turtle.
Looking at the beach where the big tiger had turned over, the reefs were lying on the ground and the sand was a mess. In order to turn over edible food, she turned over all the large reefs on this side.
Feeding her cubs is her instinct. Accepting that her cubs are strange long strips and small furs, and accepting the difference in their food, the tiger mother took the initiative to take on the responsibility of finding food for them.
She was a strong tiger beastman, and probably never worried about food, but the cubs needed fish, which really stumped her. As a big tiger, she "caught the sea" on the beach every day, but the harvest was not rich, which hit her self-confidence a little, so her attitude towards the sea became increasingly fierce, and she would roar at the sea to express her feelings whenever she had nothing to do.
She no longer stopped Wu Mu from going into the sea to catch fish to eat, but she was a little depressed, sharpening her claws against the reef, as if asking: "Are my claws not sharp enough?"
Song Xu saw it and was very happy, and helped her clean up all the sand in her claws that she had difficulty dealing with. The big tiger had thick pads, and its hidden claws were much sharper than the bone knife she had used before. There
were also long leg hairs in the gaps, and Song Xu wanted to cut them off for her. Wumu came back, dragging a fishing net with all kinds of strange things in it, and the harvest was rich.
After Song Xu had a large fruit tree brought back by Tiger Mother, she no longer had to look for food, so she put all her energy into making tools. She returned to her old job and started doing handicrafts, looking for vines in the forest, peeling off the rough skin on the outside, and using the soft tendons inside to weave a large fishing net.
The fishing net was given to Wumu to catch fish, which was more convenient and faster than catching them himself, and he could also bring back the harvest.
Tiger mother ate too many primitive beasts and became stupid, but Song Xu felt that she couldn't just give up like this and had to stop eating primitive beasts. Now Tiger mother has accepted that they don't eat primitive beasts but fish, so let her accept eating fish together.
In order to evoke the big tiger's memory as an orc, Song Xu also made a wooden basin with tree trunks, a wooden stick for grilling fish, and picked up a large shell to make a pot for stewing fish soup. The
piled branches smoked and gave off orange flames, which were reflected in the big tiger's golden pupils, reflecting the swaying shadow. Suddenly, there was a distant and lively sound in her ears. The beastmen of the tribe would knock each other with bones to make sounds to coordinate with the people dancing around the campfire.
Someone was calling her name, Heisen, Heisen!
But this scene soon disappeared. The big tiger stared at the fire in front of him, his claws itching to move, and he stretched out his hand to clap.
Song Xu: "...Ah!"
After many twists and turns, the big fire was finally lit. Grilled fish, boiled shells, and roasted octopus were all prepared. Song Xu took a few green and yellow fruits and threw them into the fire.
After finally settling down temporarily, she decided to seize the opportunity to make some delicious meals for Snake and Tiger.
Of course, there is nothing that can be done if it is not delicious, after all, there is no seasoning.
