Chapter 232 Primal Beast World Cubs 7
He wasn't afraid of being tired, dirty, or smelling fish; his only fear was not having enough to eat.
Its two claws kept pawing in the water. When Shen Ci pulled closer to take a look, he discovered that when its hands approached the water's surface, they could transform into claws, which were very sharp, like wolf claws.
This is the characteristic of orcs: possessing human agility and animal strength.
Shen Ci had no choice but to help him skewer the fish. This child had never eaten cooked food before, and he couldn't stand eating raw food. But once he tasted the meat, he couldn't stop eating it.
Finally, Cangye, who had been busy for most of the day, had several strings of fish strung together with vines hanging around his neck, and his basket was full. Although he still looked like a child, he was now very strong, no less than an adult.
After splashing around in the water for a while, Shen Ci noticed that the child's skin seemed to have become whiter and had a healthy glow, which was not the case before. She guessed that it was due to the effect of the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
Just then, Cang Ye washed himself in the water, cleaning out the impurities expelled by the Marrow Cleansing Pill, which made him look much better.
A man brought home a large string of fish. It was too hot to keep them fresh, and he couldn't keep up with the fish-killing. So, Shen Ci taught Cangye how to kill fish. His claws could be long or short and were as sharp as knives, making them perfect for killing fish.
The cleaned fish were strung together with vines and hung at the entrance of the cave, so that they could be sun-dried and prevented from being stolen by other animals.
While doing these things, the little wolf cub Cangye showed great patience and did not get annoyed by the repetitive actions, which made me feel very gratified.
But in Cangye's heart, his mother did not complain that he could not eat meat directly, nor did she think that it was troublesome for him to eat cooked food. Instead, she patiently caught fish for him and grilled fish for him.
This is what a mother is.
He knew, he had seen it before! The wolf cubs with parents were protected by their parents and given food, but he didn't have that.
When he was bullied, he had no parents to protect him. When he was hungry, he could only wait until the rest of the clan had finished eating before he could go up and eat a few bites, but he would vomit them up.
The little wolf bared its teeth, trying to protect itself in that state, but none of its tribe members were afraid of it.
He felt protected by his mother.
He became more and more serious about it. In his mind, his mother was teaching him skills, the ability to hunt, and the ability to cook food. These were things that only parents could teach him.
How can a child grow up properly if no one teaches them these skills?
The sensitive little wolf cub increasingly felt that having a mother was a good thing. Although his mother looked different from the other members of her tribe and did not have such a powerful appearance or agile movements, she was still very strong.
No one but her can make food that they can eat without vomiting.
She wouldn't blame him for not being able to eat food directly, for being incompetent, thin, or weak.
It took quite a while to process the fish. There was no time here, only sunrise and sunset. Seeing the wolf cub's sharp claws, Shen Ci realized that beastmen and beasts were still different.
The orcs are even stronger, and the wolf cub is an orc who has taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill, so he will only be more powerful. The family is destitute and must activate survival mode!
"Cangye, you must have been to many places here. Have you ever seen a certain plant?"
It's entirely green, growing segment by segment upwards. Its leaves are pointed, and they even sprout sharp, sturdy shoots from the soil. It grows very quickly.
The little wolf cub thought for a moment, then asked expectantly.
"Mother, are you talking about bamboo?"
...
Shen Ci's lips twitched. He even knows about bamboo? Isn't this a beastman world?
"Yes, it's bamboo, that's what you call it too."
Do you know where I can find bamboo? I need some.
This was quite unexpected. I didn't expect that bamboo was called bamboo here. These beastmen were different from what I had imagined. It seems that there is civilization in the beastman world.
"Follow me!"
Cangye said happily that he was happy to be able to help his mother. He then ran and crossed a hillside into the forest.
"Here!"
The little wolf cub shouted excitedly. In front of him was a large bamboo forest with bamboo shoots of all sizes on the ground. He wondered what season it was, since bamboo shoots were growing. The weather wasn't cold, so he guessed it wasn't winter.
As long as there is bamboo, that's good. With bamboo, you can make a lot of tools. She's not a beastman, so she doesn't have any innate strength advantage. She can only use her clever mind.
"Cang Ye, can your claws cut down these bamboos?"
I need to cut them like this, and then slice them into strips.
Shen Ci gestured roughly and realized that the orc's claws were even more effective than knives.
Cangye stood in front of the bamboo, swung his claws a few times, and the bamboo fell to the ground. With a few more swung claws, the cylindrical bamboo was shaved into long, thin strips. If that wasn't enough, he could swing his claws again.
"Good, good! Good boy, you did a fantastic job!"
Now I need to use these bamboos to weave some useful tools. Could you help me break off some bamboo shoots?
Do you know what bamboo shoots are? They're these pointed little things that sprout out of the ground. They're delicious cooked, and you can also dry them to eat later.
As soon as he finished speaking, Cangye couldn't wait to dart out. The feeling of being needed made him realize that he was not a useless wolf who needed the care of the pack.
Shen Ci found a clean place to sit down and start working as a bamboo craftsman. She didn't know how to actually do it, but she had a lot of theoretical knowledge. She had seen how to weave, but she had never tried it herself.
If you want a frame, weave it into the shape of a frame; if you want a basket, weave it into the shape of a basket; if you want a ham, weave it into the shape of a ham. In practice, it's just a matter of continuously stacking small squares.
After weaving the base horizontally and vertically, one strip at a time, the remaining bamboo strips were pulled up to weave the upper part.
She's fast, and the requirements for the fabrication are simple. It doesn't need to be too detailed, and she doesn't know how to make it too detailed anyway. As long as it works, that's fine.
Soon, Shen Ci made a decent-looking large basket, and also made two straps that could be carried on his back. They were also made of bamboo strips, and he would just stuff the parts he didn't know how to handle into the basket.
Use rattan and bamboo strips; as long as they don't break easily, can hold things, and are sturdy enough, that's fine.
After finishing, Shen Ci looked up.
Haha!
There was already a pile of bamboo shoots in front of me! These orcs are really fast; their efficiency is amazing!
"That's enough, that's enough. Let's finish this first. We can't do more than that. You should rest for a while."
For the first time, I was troubled by having too much stuff.
"Two baskets on your back".
The bamboo shoots gathered by the wolf cub had no effect; only those she obtained herself had one. Her basket immediately multiplied into two, one for each of them.
