Lin Xia often sent her two brothers to relay messages, and Su Tang assumed that Lin Xia had something to say again.
“Mother is fine. I came to see you and Hu Shen because I have something to discuss with you.”
Before entering the house, Su Shiwei stomped the snow off her shoes. Once inside, she didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"Wasn't White Stone Lake in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain destroyed? I have a way to find White Stone."
Su Tang looked surprised, and even Hu Shen perked up his ears.
Just as the two were about to ask the questions that were on their minds, Su Shiwei dropped another bombshell.
"The last human you're looking for today is with me. She told me that humans have enough white stone, oh yes, they call it salty sand where they live."
Su Shiwei recounted all the information he had obtained from Lin Shantou to the two of them.
White Stone is not only the lifeblood of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, but also theirs.
The white stones they used on the farm were all traded from the Beast Mountain.
The relationship between the Beast Mountain and the other beastmen can be described as one of mutual prosperity and mutual loss.
After hearing Su Shiwei's words, both Su Tang and Hu Shen showed surprise and delight.
“If what she said is true, being able to exchange with the human race would naturally be a good thing,” Su Tang couldn’t help but say.
She prefers alliances to enemies.
This is good for both the Orcs and Humans.
As for the sea creatures I'd never seen before, I'd heard Rabbit Momo mention them back in the Rabbit Clan tribe; they weren't an easy race to get along with.
Hu Shen nodded in agreement. Compared to the dangerous and unknown sea creatures, the weak human race was naturally more suitable.
Less danger, more benefits.
Although both are beastmen, the relationship between land-dwelling beastmen and sea-dwelling beastmen is not good.
Both sides almost regard each other as outsiders, and it is best to avoid contact if possible. After all, one is in the water and the other is on land. Unless the land is submerged by the sea or the sea dries up and only land remains, the two sides will not have any interaction.
“It’s just that the human race is in internal strife, and we need you, Hu Shen, to send orcs to help her resolve it.” Su Shiwei was worried that Hu Shen looked down on the human race.
Before this, Hu Shen indeed looked down on him.
However, after listening to Su Tang's words, he understood.
“No problem,” Hu Shen said.
Not to mention internal strife among humans, he has already wiped out countless orc tribes.
Even if he were to wipe out the human race, it wouldn't be a problem.
However, not all orcs are bloodthirsty and brutal. Unless they are desperate and no one provokes them, the Beast Mountain will not kill other tribes.
Seeing that Hu Shen agreed, Su Shiwei was somewhat surprised, but still reminded him:
"It may not go smoothly, so you need to be mentally prepared."
Since nothing has happened yet, no one knows how it will turn out. Even if Su Shiwei thinks Lin Shanyue isn't lying, she can't be sure there won't be any unexpected events.
"I know, thank you." Hu Shen nodded solemnly, his face showing gratitude.
"Brother, how did you find out all this? This human is actually willing to believe you." Su Tang thought of the humans she had met earlier, her face full of curiosity.
Upon hearing Su Tang's words, Su Shiwei inexplicably recalled Lin Shanyue's agitated appearance and coughed lightly.
"I...maybe I don't look that fierce."
His answer was vague.
Su Tang thought about it and realized that her brother was not as fierce as other beastmen, and he spoke gently, except that he was a little taller than humans.
He might be considered a bit thin among orcs, but among humans, he was just the right amount of strong.
Hu Shen felt even more respect for A Tang's brother; he could easily ask questions that other beastmen couldn't.
Ah Tang's family members are indeed quite capable!
Having made the initial decision, Su Tang, fearing that the other orcs might frighten Lin Shanyue, asked Su Shiwei to continue inquiring about the details of the human race.
Anyway, the snow season is still so long, so if we want to go to the human realm, we'll have to wait until the snow season is over.
Su Shiwei agreed.
As he was leaving, before he even reached the gate, he suddenly remembered something and turned back.
"Tangtang, do you have any spare clothes? Could you give me a set?"
"Clothes?" Su Tang was slightly taken aback, then nodded. "Yes, brother, wait for me a moment, I'll go get them."
Su Shiwei was referring to a set, and Su Tang guessed that it was meant for human beings to wear, so she took out all the new clothes, inside and out.
She remembered Niu Li saying that the human they hadn't caught was a woman.
She packed everything into a big bag for Su Shiwei, from intimate underwear and close-fitting cotton undershirts to outer coats, shoes, and socks.
Su Shiwei didn't stand on ceremony with her younger sister. She told her mother to make her a new one later and then prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, there's also this, brother, you can take it too." Su Tang took out the brown sugar that Lin Xia had boiled from sugarcane earlier from the kitchen and handed it to Su Shiwei as well.
She blinked and whispered:
“It’s not easy for that girl to come here during the snow season. It’s not good for her to get cold. You can cook this for her to drink.”
It may not be effective, but it's better than nothing.
Su Tang still held this human woman, whom she had never met before, in high esteem.
If it were her, she might not be able to stand being in the snow for even half a day.
Su Shiwei understood immediately, and the image of Lin Shanyue's pale face immediately came to mind.
"good."
After saying that, he took a large bag of things and went back.
Back in the stone house, Su Shiwei put her things in the living room, went to the kitchen to boil some brown sugar water, thought for a moment, then boiled a pot of hot water in the large pot next to her before returning to her room with the clothes Su Tang had given her.
As soon as Su Shiwei entered, she saw a girl curled up in the corner, asleep with her head resting on her knees.
