"Chief Eagle, this is all our Sunset Tribe's territory, as are those mountains outside!"
He was proudly introducing his territory to the eagle clan chief when his son, daughter-in-law, and two other women suddenly appeared in his field of vision.
Not only did he show up, but he was also dressed in a disheveled manner, which immediately made me look a little sullen.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Get out of here!"
Luo Bai and You Ran hadn't expected to encounter this situation. The foreign beastmen were all cleaned up, clearly indicating that something was up.
Their attire at this moment was quite impolite to appear before the guests.
You Ran quickly nudged Luo Bai in front of her and whispered, "Hurry up and take a detour!"
"good!"
The four of them, no longer caring about the mud on their bodies, simply walked around behind them until they entered the tribe and could no longer see the orcs, at which point they felt relieved.
Although they were far apart, Ying Yao recognized You Ran standing behind the blond-haired man at a glance.
She was covered in mud, and her hair was a bit messy, making her look completely different from her previous glamorous self.
"Chief of the Sunset Tribe, it seems that life in your tribe is not very easy."
Will our cooperation increase your financial burden?
Upon hearing this, the clan chief's heart leaped into his throat.
Ying Yao had promised to increase the number of guards for their Sunset Tribe and protect their safety.
But what does it mean to say that now? Are you trying to back out?
Just because you saw those scruffy orcs?
"No, no, no, how could that be? We're overjoyed to have your protection, how could we possibly feel pressured!"
“Those four were the more active orcs in our tribe. They like to run around all day long. Other orcs are not like that.”
The clan chief quickly explained, fearing that the prize he had almost won would slip away.
Autumn is here, and winter is not far behind.
Every winter is a time of great turmoil. Without strong military power, a tribe might be wiped out after just one winter.
If the Eagle Clan were to provide protection at this time, it would be like adding another layer of protection to the Sunset Tribe!
Don't get too excited!
"That's good!"
Ying Yao touched his wrist; he had only said those words casually.
"Since this is a collaboration, our Eagle Clan will provide some fish and shrimp for everyone to celebrate tonight!"
"good!"
The clan chief clapped his hands happily, surprised that the eagle clan chief was so straightforward!
He provided protection to the Sunset Tribe, and the Sunset Tribe provided them with the finest animal hides—a win-win situation.
You know, animal hides are easy to find, but such a strong protective shield is hard to find!
What's more, he's so easy to talk to, where else can you find such a good business partner?
You Ran and Luo Bai were covered in mud and had planned to wash themselves off outside before coming back.
Unexpectedly, the clan leader was busy with important matters, so he could only come back and wash himself with the remaining water, and then go out to wash again when he went to bed at night.
The two changed into clean animal skin skirts. Huang Yu also returned with the hunting team, carrying a fat black boar back happily.
"You Ran, I've brought the wild boar back!"
Upon hearing this, You Ran laughed excitedly: "Let's go, let's hurry over and get some lard!"
What is lard?
Huang Yu was puzzled; she had never heard of it before.
You'll see when you get there!
You Ran didn't know how to explain it, so she simply didn't bother. Anyway, he would know what it was just by looking at it.
When we arrived at the place where the wild animals were killed, there was blood and fur everywhere, and the whole scene was very dirty and messy.
Just then, a group of orcs arrived carrying several large baskets of fish, ready to kill them.
This was the first time Mu Youran had seen them eat fish, and she asked curiously.
"Huang Yu, do we usually eat fish?"
Huang Yu shook her head, feeling somewhat unhappy.
But he patiently answered You Ran's questions.
"No, these were brought by the eagle-clan orcs. We're having grilled fish tonight!"
Mu Youran suddenly heard about the Eagle Clan, and a wave of fear washed over her.
The last trip to the Eagle Tribe was not pleasant at all.
I glanced at the unfamiliar male; I'd never seen him before. He had a full head of white hair, so he must be from the Eagle Clan.
He turned around and walked up to the wild boar, just in time to cut open its belly.
You Ran pointed to the two large patches of snow-white fat on her stomach: "Could I have some of that fat?"
The male, who was processing meat, saw her arrive so early and assumed she was looking for a good piece of wild game.
But unexpectedly, they came to ask for this thing!
He laughed and said, "You Ran, this stuff doesn't taste good. It's so soft and mushy, and it'll disappear as soon as you roast it over a fire."
Mu Youran: "It's okay, I want that one."
Seeing that she wouldn't listen to reason, the male simply threw the two large pieces at her: "Fine, take them all if you want."
"real?"
You Ran looked at the snow-white lard in her hand with surprise.
"Of course, we'll throw it away later anyway."
Huang Yu took the lard and carried it in her hand. It was such a big piece that once she passed through the tribal square, all the orcs would know about it.
Eileen was secretly exchanging glances with Black Hair when she suddenly saw Huang Yu and You Ran passing by carrying unwanted wild animal meat.
His eyes were full of disdain. Black Hair had said that if you wanted to know if a male was virile, you could tell by his physique.
Generally, those with good physical strength are skinny monkeys, like the one with black hair.
Although he's not very good at hunting, he's got a knack for dealing with females!
As for Huang Yu's body, she had secretly seen it. His strong muscles were only good-looking on the surface and definitely not very useful.
Now she understands that when looking for a male, practicality is key.
She rolled her eyes dismissively: "Tch, I didn't expect that after Huang Yu got together with You Ran, he couldn't even get a decent piece of meat."
"Eating this kind of unwanted, junk meat every day!"
The other females nearby, though unwilling to agree with Eileen, had no choice but to accept the reality before them.
"Could it be that You Ran is too amazing and has drained Huang Yu dry?"
As soon as he said that, the whole room burst into laughter.
As for these gossips, You Ran didn't hear a word of them. When she got home, she took out the wood ash that she had soaked the night before.
Cut the fat into small pieces, put them into an earthenware pot, add a little water, and prepare to render the fat.
Luo Bai tended the fire, while Huang Yu pulled out a black animal hide and began sewing clothes stitch by stitch.
Meanwhile, You Ran wasn't idle either. She took out the bamboo tubes she had brought back today and neatly placed them on the table while keeping an eye on the pot.
Soon, the water inside boiled and dried up in no time, leaving only crystal clear oil.
Luo Bai sniffed: "You Ran, I didn't expect this unwanted meat to smell so good."
