Chapter 233 Primitive Beast World Cubs 8
The little wolf cub squatted in front of Shen Ci with a look of wanting praise on his face. He didn't squat like a human, but like a beast. He was so tired that he was covered in sweat and panting heavily, like a puppy with his tongue sticking out and panting.
Shen Ci noticed that Cang Ye's limbs had become wolf-like, with sharp claws showing, and the wild bloodline in his body had become even stronger.
"That's great! You've collected so much food, that's amazing."
This child is still clumsy at everything else, but he is very strong. Most orcs are like this; those who are not strong cannot survive on this continent. It is survival of the fittest.
However, the wolf cub seems to be in better health now. His complexion is rosy and he looks healthy, whereas yesterday he was ashen-faced.
After receiving the praise, the wolf cub became even more excited. His ears twitched, and before he even realized it, a large, fluffy tail slowly appeared behind him, like a husky's.
Shen noticed this change and praised the child. A tail was wagging behind him, and from the tail, he could tell that the child was happy and excited.
"Cangye, your tail has grown out."
She reminded him, and the wolf cub suddenly turned around, only then noticing that he had grown a tail!
A fluffy little tail was wagging excitedly from side to side. He jumped up and chased his tail around twice. He had a tail!
The others in the clan used to say that he was a wolf of low blood, which is why he only had ears and could not grow a tail or limbs. A normal wolf cub can revert to wolf form and human form, but he has never been able to change back since he transformed into human form.
The only remaining distinguishing feature is a pair of animal ears, which serves as proof of their identity and lineage.
"Ding-dong!"
Within three days, the cubs were taught how to make fire.
Reward: A lighter that never runs out of oil.
Salvage value +10%.
While the cubs were running happily in the bamboo forest, Shen Ci received another mission from the system, and the reward for this mission was also very useful.
A lighter that never runs out of oil is a godsend in this primitive world; from now on, there's no need to worry about running out of fire.
For Cangye, who is not suited to eating raw food, learning to make fire and preserve embers is also an important survival skill. Shen Ci stopped the wolf cubs that were running around.
"Alright, let's go home. You carry this basket of bamboo shoots back, and I'll carry the other one."
Skinny people are skinny people; bloodline determines everything. They are stronger than an average adult. Cang Ye lifted both baskets without any apparent effort.
"I can!"
His eyes sparkled as he said, "It feels good to be needed."
As they walked, Shen Ci saw the abundant prey on the plains and his mouth started to water.
"If only we could catch some prey, I could make you some barbecue."
As soon as she finished speaking, two baskets appeared beside her. The little wolf darted out like an arrow and pounced on a pheasant, bringing it back to her.
A pheasant with its neck snapped was thrown in front of him, while the wolf cub continued to squat there, looking like he wanted to be praised.
Shen Ci: Suddenly I discovered the wonderful use of the cubs.
"What other prey would you like to eat? Whatever you catch, I'll make you something to eat."
She asked, "The child has a big appetite, so it would be best if he could hunt for himself and support himself."
Upon hearing this, the wolf cub exclaimed, "What? I can eat whatever I want?" Its wolf eyes scanned the plain before it, then it dashed off again, running very fast.
My stomach is full, and after a good night's rest, I feel refreshed. With the help of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, I feel like I have inexhaustible energy. I've never felt so energetic before.
A short while later, the wolf cub threw back two wild rabbits, both with their necks twisted. He was still too young and had no one of his kind to cooperate with, so he couldn't catch any larger prey. This time, Shen Ci waited even longer.
Finally, she saw the wolf cub running on all fours, with a deer about the same size as it, or even a little bigger, in its mouth.
This kid is too strong! The animals he captured were all ordinary animals, while the intelligent beastmen were simply outmatched by them.
"So much?" Shen Ci exclaimed in surprise. Only then did the two of them struggle to drag all the supplies they had found that day back to the cave.
The area in front of the cave was piled high with game and bamboo shoots; two baskets were simply not enough.
In front of the cave, a frame was erected using several tree trunks, on which hung prey strung together with vines, including several strings of fish.
There are also mushrooms and apples. Store what can be stored, and dry what is not convenient to store for a long time. Having plenty of supplies at home makes me feel safe.
Shen Ci quickly went to process the prey, with the wolf cub guarding her. There was too much prey, so she had to take it to the riverbank and wash it with the flowing water. The plains were the most basic and safest place, with very few large wild beasts roaming around.
She was cleaning her prey, and the wolf cub was right beside her, not far away, chasing butterflies one moment and scaring rabbits and pheasants the next, full of energy.
So cute, so incredibly cute.
By the time Shen Ci finished her work, it was almost evening, and the sky was already filled with the red glow of the setting sun.
The chickens, rabbits, and deer were all bled. The deer blood could be taken back and used; deer blood is a valuable commodity. The animals' internal organs were removed, their fur was removed, and only the flesh was left. It was then rinsed clean with river water to remove as much blood as possible.
She didn't have many suitable tools, only bone spikes, sharp stones, and sharpened bamboo strips, which greatly reduced her efficiency. For some parts that she couldn't cut, she had to have the wolf cubs scratch them.
Facing the setting sun, the wolf cub carried part of the prey, while Shen Ci led the rest. The setting sun cast long shadows of them, but their shadows intertwined.
After returning to the cave, Shen Ci decided to complete the tasks issued by the system first. There were many resources that she would have difficulty manufacturing with her current abilities. If she could trigger more system tasks, she might be able to get rewards.
First, cut the meat into pieces, then quickly built a frame using the bamboo we brought back today. We set up the bamboo frame in the cave, in places where it could be smoked by the smoke from the fire, and temporarily smoked it.
"Today, I'm going to teach you a very important skill: starting a fire."
"You're different from the other wolves. You can't eat raw meat directly; your digestive system isn't strong enough to digest it yet. Maybe you can later, but for now, let's learn how to make fire."
What Shen Ci was going to teach him today was how to make fire by rubbing sticks together. This was the most suitable life skill for the primitive world, since a little cub couldn't possibly find a lighter.
"First, find two pieces of wood. Sharpen one of them, preferably like this. Use a rope to make a small pull device so you don't have to rub it by hand."
If you have nothing else, put some light, easily flammable dry grass and firewood on this piece of wood, then hold the stick on top with both hands and rub it back and forth vigorously until it smokes..."
