These white stones are far more numerous than the white stones that were traded for with wolf iron!
Not only are there more of them, but their quality is also incomparable.
It took the gray wolf leader a while to come to his senses. These were all white stones that Lang Zhuang and Su Tang's brother had obtained from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain!
Why is there such a big difference between going to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?
Wolf Zhuang actually gave so many white stones to the tribe; he's a truly honest and kind-hearted male.
The gray wolf leader was unaware that this was only a quarter of the white stones that Wolf Strong had obtained.
at night.
The stars were dim, and the dark clouds had turned the moon black.
The long-delayed rain finally fell in the night, and torrential rain washed over the earth, as if it were secretly trying to peel off a layer of skin from it.
When Su Tang woke up in the morning, she heard a dripping sound outside.
The five kittens didn't turn their backs to her today; instead, they lay on the wooden table in front of the window, catching raindrops splashing in from outside with their paws.
They thought it was a "water bug".
No insect can escape their clutches alive.
Su Tang then realized it was raining. She went to the window and saw that the dripping sound was water splashing from the eaves. When she opened the window, she heard a rushing sound outside.
The rain was so heavy it almost obscured visibility.
The lush green scenery outside the window seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist.
The rainy season has arrived.
The rainy season on the ancient continent was extremely harsh.
The continuous heavy rains meant that hunting would be more difficult and prey would be harder to find.
Not only orcs need food, but wild beasts deep in the forest also need food to survive.
Sometimes, wild beasts from deep in the forest would even come out and attack the hunting orcs, so most orcs would not choose to go out during the rainy season unless they were really out of food.
Su Jianyuan won't be hunting today either. The meat they've stored up these past few days, along with the crops from Su Tang Farm, is enough for his family to get through the rainy season.
It was raining heavily, and the whole family couldn't go out.
Su Shiwei then drew diagrams at home, designing the future infrastructure in the surrounding area.
Lin Xia also gathered everything in the yard under the eaves, fiddling with how to turn the cotton Su Tang had given her into thread and cloth.
Now that the weather is hot, wearing animal skins is very stuffy.
Even when it rains, the door has to be left open, otherwise, sitting at home wearing animal skins, you'll be sweating buckets.
Su Guodong had a good grasp of the weather forecast, so he moved all the seeds he was cultivating into the cultivation shed yesterday. Otherwise, with such heavy rain, his seedlings would definitely have been washed away and killed.
Holding a ceramic cup, he sat on the recliner made by Su Shiwei, comfortably watching the heavy rain outside.
They weren't worried at all that the crops would be damaged by the rain.
This was the first time Su Tang had ever seen the whole family gathered at home like this.
For a moment, it felt like a dream.
"Mother, where are Xiaofu and Daqing?" Su Tang looked around but didn't see Xiaofu and Daqing, so she asked in confusion.
“Xiao Fu is still sleeping. That kid was worried about the chickens in the coop last night and probably didn’t sleep at all. This morning, your father went to check on them wearing a raincoat and only went to sleep after he found out that the chickens were alright.”
Although the two elders didn't treat Xiaofu like their own son, they treated him equally and without bias.
They fully support Xiaofu's chicken-raising business.
"Daqing, right? I haven't seen Daqing today. Old man, go and see where he went. He's usually up by now!"
Lin Xia was also somewhat puzzled when she thought of Da Qing.
He urged Su Guodong to go and check on Daqing's room.
Inside the room.
The massive red-footed falcon curled up in a corner, its wings enveloping its body into a ball, its head buried under its wings, as if trying to isolate itself from the outside world.
Hearing the door open, Daqing peeked out with one eye.
Seeing that it was none other than Su Guodong at the door, he buried his head back inside.
In the past, Su Guodong would have been terrified to see such a scene.
He has now grown accustomed to Daqing's beast form and takes it for granted.
Seeing that Daqing was still in its beast form at home, he paused for a moment, then asked curiously:
"Daqing, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell or injured? Why are you still using your beast form at home?"
Before Daqing could respond, Linxia, who had heard the sound, rushed over.
"What happened? How did you get injured! What happened to Daqing?"
Su Tang and her two siblings followed behind, also worried.
Seeing the entire beast family gather around, Da Qing, somewhat embarrassed, transformed back into human form, scratched his head, and said:
"I wasn't injured, it's just... it's just that it's the rainy season, and I'm used to staying in the cave, so I forgot for a moment that I had left the forest."
The rainy season and the snowy season are the two most difficult times for wandering orcs.
Without any companions, they had to find a secluded cave to hide in before the rainy season to ensure their safety.
Upon hearing this, everyone knew that he must have been recalling unpleasant memories.
"Daqing, don't worry, the wooden house is sturdy and can withstand the wind and rain. We also have enough food and white stones. This rainy season will pass smoothly," Su Shiwei, who was usually taciturn, comforted him.
He was very confident in the wooden house he had built.
As the eldest brother, his words carried great weight.
Su Jianyuan also said boldly, "That's right, don't be afraid. You're a beastman with a home now. We'll face anything together in the future, and we'll all help you!"
Su Tang and the two elders nodded in agreement.
Although they knew that only the most heinous orcs would be expelled from the tribe and branded as wandering orcs.
But after spending so much time together, they could see that Daqing was definitely not the kind of beastman who would do evil.
