Chapter 214 The Little Black Snake Carries a Flower
After filling several jars with fruit wine, the group bid farewell to the Wild Fox Tribe.
Donna, leaning on her cane, watched them disappear into the snowy forest.
The old clan chief helped the female mother back to the cave, and couldn't help but worry.
"Mother, after this winter, the number of beastmen and females in the Wild Fox tribe will probably decrease again."
He didn't say it explicitly.
But Donna could easily understand what he meant.
After a moment of hesitation, she spoke.
“Daniel, this is a good thing.”
"The Mother Tree sent me a divine message, hoping that after the female messenger returns, I will go to the Lion's Roar tribe to take root."
Daniel's eyes widened in surprise.
"Mother, are you saying... Mother Tree, Mother Tree is going to abandon us?"
Donna: "..."
She raised her cane and tapped the fox's son on the head.
"The Mother Tree wants us to move to the Lion's Roar Tribe."
Daniel covered his head.
"Mother, just say what you want to say, but can you please stop hitting my head? I'm the clan leader, and I've lost all face in front of the clan members!"
Donna glared at him.
"You stupid idiot, what do you care about saving face!"
"Go away, go away. After the snow melts, take some people to the Lion's Roar tribe and find their chieftain and leader to discuss the relocation."
The old clan chief, Daniel, left, clutching his head.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xi nestled in Lu Liufeng's arms and stopped skiing.
She skated all day yesterday, and her legs were trembling and sore.
She rolled up her animal-skin sleeves, revealing a small black snake, and told Lu Liufeng about her dream.
Lu Liufeng seemed to be deep in thought.
"Although I have never seen atavism, it is said that atavism involves reshaping everything from bones and blood to skin and flesh."
"Duan Si's snake body is large; perhaps he began to reshape it from childhood?"
This would reduce the risk of being unable to withstand the immense size of the beast.
Jiang Xi tapped her chin with her finger.
"I don't know, but I felt that Duan Si in my dream was in good spirits."
Gone is the gloomy and cold past; he's now a lively little tyrant, a leader of the kids, leading a group of little snakes into trouble before running away, leaving the little snakes hanging miserably on the tree.
Lu Liufeng keenly noticed the change in the female master's attitude towards Duan Si.
He pursed his lips, his amber eyes lowering slightly.
"Perhaps this can be considered a good thing."
Jiang Xi smiled and nodded, her dark eyes crinkling.
The little snake cubs are really interesting.
Both the two little cubs of the Yves family and the little black snake Duan Si are adorable, cute, and fun.
At noon, everyone had a casual lunch in the snowy forest.
Before nightfall, they were unable to find a tribe to stay in.
They could only set up animal skin tents in the snowy forest and cook over a fire.
These past two days, Yang has been getting along well with the beastmen. Although Layton still considers himself a beastman of the royal court, he has had to lower his head when it comes to food.
He traveled in his beast form during the day, but did not receive ten times the amount of food he would have in his beast form at night.
They only received one serving of food in beastman form, and after eating it, they were still starving.
He wanted more food, but Hong Wuqing refused.
"Please forgive me, Beast Master. It's not that I don't want to give you food, but that I simply don't have any."
"Everyone is eating sparingly, after all, you can't always encounter deer herds."
Layton looked at the other orcs, but they were all eating their food and no one paid him any attention.
At first, the beastmen might have shown him some respect because of his status as a beast envoy from the royal court.
But all the respect was worn away along the way.
Anyway, they are orcs from the Lion's Roar tribe and will not be living in the royal court in the future, so there is no need for them to curry favor with the royal court orcs.
Their sole task is to protect the female messengers.
As long as the female messenger is there, the Lion's Roar tribe is nothing to fear.
Layton looked at Yang and saw that Yang was eating heartily, and said with dissatisfaction.
"You were bought off with just a bite of food?"
Yang travels by skiing, so this food will only make him about half full compared to Leiden.
He looked up at Layton, somewhat displeased by his stubbornness.
"Layton, our mission is to deliver the female envoy to the royal court. As for other matters, I think you should save your breath as much as possible and avoid causing trouble that could lead to mission failure."
"I advise you to try skiing during the day as well, to save energy and food."
They certainly didn't lack food and drink at the royal court.
But while traveling, especially in areas prone to food shortages during winter, it's best to save money wherever possible.
Layton didn't go to Jiang Xi because he knew she wouldn't pay any attention to him.
He angrily left the camp and decided to go hunting on his own.
Jiang Xi glanced at the disappearing figure, then looked away.
Before going to bed that night, she sorted out the supernatural abilities of her six beast husbands, including Duan Si on her wrist.
It's not an in-depth analysis, just a rather superficial one.
After all, although her superpower had reached level 7, it was still not enough for her to thoroughly manage all six beastmen.
Even a superficial cleansing would deplete her supernatural abilities.
She fell into a deep sleep, and then, as she had expected, woke up in her dream.
But this time, as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the little black snake... no... he should say the middle black snake, Duan Si.
He had grown a bit bigger; his wrist was now thicker than hers.
The black snake was wailing loudly while carrying a white flower in its mouth and piling it onto a mound of earth.
His colorful snake minions, each carrying a white flower, came forward, placed it under the mound of earth, and wiped away their tears with their tails.
"Snake-like creature."
"True feeling snake."
"By the way, which of you has seen Duan Si's female?"
The colorful little snakes shook their heads and wagged their tails.
"Never seen it before."
"Never seen it before."
"According to Duan Si, she has fair skin and big eyes, and is more beautiful than all the females in Kurkan."
"Tsk, I still think Xiao Hong's mother is the prettiest. When I grow up, I want to marry her."
A small red snake swam out from the colorful array and roared angrily.
"I challenge you to a duel!"
"You shameless snake, you actually want to marry my female mother!"
"duel!"
"..."
Jiang Xi bypassed the chirping, colorful little snakes, came to Duan Si's side, squatted down, and tilted her head to ask him.
"What are you doing?"
Or perhaps...
What are you doing?
Last time, it was hung on a tree by the father beasts.
This time...
She looked at the small white flowers piled on the mound of earth, then at the large tears falling from the black snake's crimson eyes, and scratched her head in confusion.
Xiao Duan turned his head blankly, and when he saw the female in front of him, his snake eyes widened instantly.
"Female, female...female, you've come back to life!!!"
Jiang Xi blinked.
"Resurrection?"
Little Duan Si sprang up, leaped into her arms, wrapped itself around her arm and climbed up, excitedly sticking out its forked tongue to lick her neck.
"Kurkan has appeared! Kurkan has appeared!"
"I knew it! Kurkan must have heard my prayer!"
He was incredibly excited, but he forgot that just yesterday he thought the god Kurkan was useless and even urinated on his statue.
Jiang Xi covered her face.
She understood.
It turns out, she died in her dream.
etc……
Could it be that he... poisoned the fish he caught with his venomous fangs?
