Chapter 268 Primitive Beast World Cubs 42
A small patch of chili peppers grows on this hillside. There are no tall trees on the hillside, and the chili peppers have taken over this place aggressively.
After picking all the chili peppers from the branches and digging up more than a dozen chili seedlings, Shen Ci decided to stop. These chili peppers originally grew here, so they would definitely grow very well here.
So she stopped digging and got up to look around. Where was the little wolf cub?
The little wolf cub had somehow transformed into a wolf, its silver fur gleaming like a silver fish in the sunlight.
He ran very fast, and the wind blew the hair on his face backward, making him look quite dashing.
His body had unknowingly grown a size larger, becoming a long wolf, running freely through the mountains at an extremely fast speed.
Leaping and running, full of the wildness of a wolf.
At home, the wolf cub mostly takes human form. Shen Ci almost forgets that he is a beastman with beast genes, and this free and unrestrained appearance is what he should be like.
Wolves are social animals, and a wolf pack usually consists of dozens of members, led by a alpha wolf and his cubs.
Cangye is almost grown up. Will he leave home to build his own territory in the future?
Shen Ci didn't know, but she knew very well that raising a cub meant learning to let go, allowing it to develop, encounter setbacks, and try new things.
Regardless, these are her cubs, and it is a mother's responsibility to learn to let go.
Shen Ci didn't rush him to go home. At home, he had to do chores and study. Besides, the terrain back home was flat, but here there were rolling hills.
Let him play. Shen Ci continued to look for other supplies that she could use. The wolf cubs would find her by her scent, so there was generally no need to worry about them getting lost.
Now, we have found plenty of chili peppers, as well as wild Sichuan peppercorns. The leaves of the Sichuan peppercorn tree are long and angular, with a very obvious straight line running down the middle of the leaf.
People usually use Sichuan peppercorns as a condiment, but the leaves of the Sichuan pepper tree also have a flavoring effect, and even the trunk of the Sichuan pepper tree has a numbing taste.
In the past, many children in the teething stage liked to chew on things, so adults would cut a section of the trunk of a Sichuan pepper tree, polish it smooth, and give it to the children to chew on. It was all-natural and harmless.
It can be said that every part of them is a treasure, and nothing will be wasted!
Crops growing on the land are affected by factors such as topography, environment, soil, and sunlight, so different plants grow in each area.
Shen Ci walked through the forest to this hillside and found several kinds of seasonings. On the other side of the hillside, she found ginger, real ginger.
The pony was tied to a tree with a long rope, long enough for it to roam freely within a certain range and graze on some fresh, tender grass.
It was a rare moment of tranquility; horses grazed, wolves ran, she lay asleep on the grass, and clouds drifted across the sky.
Shen Ci was awakened by a horse's tongue licking her forehead. The rough, warm tongue was panting as it licked her forehead.
The feel of it is truly unique.
Shen Ci was startled awake. The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was a horse's face. The horse was looking at her with a silly grin, and its belly was round and bulging, indicating that it had eaten its fill.
It's getting late, and it seems the horse wants to go home now; it's even urging people on.
Where is Cang Ye?
Shen Ci got up and looked around. She didn't know how long she had slept. It was a rare comfortable dream. She didn't have any more bizarre dreams. Instead, she felt as warm and comfortable as if she were back in her mother's womb.
"Azure Night!"
Shen Ci called out, and a silver wolf quickly ran out of the forest, as swift as an arrow released from a bow.
Shen Ci realized once again that this child had grown up quite a bit.
"Mother!"
The little wolf cub, panting heavily, came running over and obediently squatted at her feet, waiting for Shen Ci to pat his head. It was always like this, and he was used to it.
Shen Ci reached out and rubbed Cang Ye's wolf head. It was still fluffy, just like before, but now that it had grown up, it looked much more handsome.
My son is growing up so fast!
"It's time to go home."
Shen Ci said, and Cang Ye turned around and dragged out a vine from somewhere. At one end of the vine was... a duck?!
With its grayish-brown color, it looks unremarkable and very ordinary. It's not even very big. It has a green patch on its head and wings. Isn't this just a duck?
“Mother, I caught it in the water over there.”
These birds run very fast and can also fly, making them difficult to catch. I managed to bite a few of them a little.
However, they do lay eggs, and the eggs are very large!
"Mother, I also collected some eggs. Can we make fried eggs when we get home?"
Cangye pulled out several large duck eggs, which surprised Shen Ci. This time, the child knew to leave survivors when hunting.
Several ducks were injured to varying degrees, some on their wings, some on their bodies, and some even had a little blood on them, but it was clear that Cang Ye was very careful.
He could usually bite the neck off such small prey in one bite.
"Of course, that's great, these are wild ducks."
Duck eggs look like this; they're quite large, but they tend to have a fishy taste.
Now we can raise ducks at home, all thanks to you, my sweetheart.
As usual, Shen Ci first praised him, and now the little wolf cub is able to accept praise without being shy.
He knew that his mother liked to catch animals alive! He could bring all these animals home and keep them as pets. His mother would eat anything, whether he thought it was edible or not.
Therefore, when Cangye saw an animal that wasn't in the house and wasn't aggressive, his first thought was to catch it and give it to his mother.
After examining the injured ducks, Shen Ci found that they mostly had minor foot injuries, none of which were fatal.
Carrying ducks and duck eggs—live animals that had to be tied up securely to Cang Ye—she rode her horse and followed Cang Ye on their return journey.
On the way back, we were so focused on getting there that we didn't have time to pick any more supplies. After dark, there would be many hidden dangers in the forest.
Many animals are nocturnal, hunting at night; it's better to stay at home when it's late.
I ran like crazy, but I still didn't get home before dark.
It was still dark when I got home. The journey was long, and I returned quite late. I even heard some strange animal calls in the forest.
Fortunately, she also had a fierce beast by her side, which was also a cute one.
They came home with their families, just in time for dinner.
Although she got home a little late, it was just in time for dinner. Today, she was going to show off her skills!
"Sweetie, just clip the ducks' wings first, like the method I told you before, it won't hurt them."
Then put them in the chicken coop with the chickens.
Wild ducks can fly, and at this time of year they fly very high; they are a type of migratory bird.
Once it flies away, it's gone.
