Baduo glanced at Mu Youran's figure, seemingly lost in thought.
"So, you ate this and grew to be so good-looking and so big?"
Mu Youran was explaining the benefits of this product to them in a very serious manner, but she didn't expect them to look directly at her.
Their blatant stares made her a little embarrassed, so she covered her chest and gave them a coquettish glare.
"Fine, don't eat it then!"
Her charming appearance captivated the attention of the females, including Bado.
No wonder she has so many good-looking male partners all by herself; that's something they can only envy.
Even when she's angry, she's still so beautiful.
"Yes, yes, we want to eat!"
One of the females quickly chimed in, jokingly saying, "This stuff is so good! Not only will it make you grow more beautiful, but it will also fill your stomach. Only a fool wouldn't eat it!"
The group quickly squatted down together and started digging, but none of them were females who had ever done this kind of work before. They dug until it was almost dark, but they still hadn't dug up a single thing.
It wasn't until their partners and Luo Bai came looking for them that they found them all squatting under a clump of grass digging in the dirt.
"Hey, what are you doing? It's almost dark."
"You Ran, it's time to go home for dinner."
Luo Bai rushed over and saw that You Ran's clothes were clean, but now they were covered in mud.
Not only that, the faces of the females were covered in mud, and the hair on their heads was a mess from the surrounding branches.
When Mu Youran saw Luo Bai arrive, she quickly waved to him.
"Luo Bai, come quickly and help us get these kudzu roots out."
The other females also called out to come and help, and as soon as they arrived, Mu Youran and the others tactfully made way for them.
Several males conjured up their claws and quickly dug up the kudzu root that they had been trying to find for a long time.
Mu Youran excitedly went over and compared them. Good heavens, the thickest part of this kudzu root was as thick as her waist!
It's very long and winding.
Although they spent the whole afternoon digging kudzu roots, they also cut the grass that needed to be cut.
Walking to the area where they had circled yesterday, Luo Bai proudly introduced it to Chao Mu You Ran.
“Look, those two little yellow calves, I caught them.”
Another male proudly smiled and introduced to his mate, "I caught a little wild boar baby."
On the first day, Mu Youran was very happy to have made a harvest and quickly emptied the grass from her basket into it.
"Let Turs send people to guard it for a while. When it grows up, we can kill it and eat it."
The other beastmen around them grew increasingly fond of the little creatures roaming around inside.
This morning, Tull told them again and again that they should bring back some live cubs.
At the time, they didn't understand why hunting was like this: you could just go up and kill it with one claw and bring it back.
Why worry about whether they live or die, and they even want babies? That's too much trouble.
It's not only troublesome, but also very time-consuming.
But now, looking at these little creatures and suddenly hearing You Ran's words, they felt that they could watch wild beasts grow up right under their noses.
Then you can eat it whenever you want, which feels really good.
Luo Bai patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, Tu'er has already arranged for people."
This little beast cub is delicious, but we can't get our hands on it right now.
The females, including Baduo, were more interested in this kudzu root.
"You Ran, how do I do this?"
Mu Youran smiled and said, "Let's go to the river and wash these clean first, then have Luo Bai and the others go back and get some stone pots to use."
Soon, Luo Bai arrived with several males, carrying their own belongings, to help.
With a male present, Mu Youran naturally wouldn't take action herself.
"First, cut these things into small pieces, then throw them into this stone pot and mash them all with a piece of wood."
Luo Bai was responsible for chopping the kudzu into small pieces, while the males next to him were responsible for crushing it. Everyone had a clear division of labor, and since there wasn't much kudzu to begin with, it was all processed quickly.
Finally, five large pots were filled with water after rinsing.
Looking at the murky water, Baduo asked curiously, "You Ran, is there anything in here?"
"Yeah, it looks like muddy water. Is it really edible?"
Mu Youran smiled and said, "Trust me, just leave it here, and you'll know when you come over tomorrow morning."
That's what they said, but Bado and the others weren't at ease.
This is food. What if it's actually edible and someone steals it if I go out in the middle of the night?
So, after parting ways with Mu Youran, the group tacitly went to the riverbank and waited there with their partners for an entire night.
Actually, Mu Youran was quite curious as well. She had only seen this thing on short videos, and this was the first time she had ever made it herself.
The reason she was so certain of success was that when she crushed the kudzu root, she saw a thick starchy liquid inside.
Whether the finished product will look good or not, I don't know.
Early in the morning, after getting ready, she went to the riverbank alone to see what was going on.
However, before she even arrived, she saw that the place was already surrounded by people.
"You Ran, come quick!"
There's nothing in here.
Bado was very anxious. You Ran had clearly said it was food, but her hand was already at the bottom of the pot and there was nothing inside.
It was all murky water.
Mu Youran saw her hands stirring in the pot from afar and immediately ran over nervously.
"Bado, don't move!"
I ran to the pot and looked at the water inside, which had no sediment at all, and felt a wave of frustration.
This kind of thing needs time to settle, and now that she's messed it up, all that time has been wasted.
She felt a sudden discomfort. If she had known this would happen, she should have explained it to them last night and told them not to touch it.
"You didn't touch the others, did you?"
Everyone could tell from You Ran's expression that she was a little angry.
He quickly took a step back.
One of the females snorted in dissatisfaction.
"What's so great about it? You're talking about something that can be made into food? We just spent the whole afternoon digging in the mud yesterday."
"But now, there's nothing in here except mud and water!"
These words were immediately echoed by the other females.
"Yeah, they're just trying to starve us!"
They and their male partners had been waiting here all night, enduring the cold wind, and were already growling with hunger.
This piece of junk is what I got in return. Who wouldn't be angry?
Even Bado couldn't say anything. She was thinking of taking some food back for her baby, but unexpectedly, all she got was a big pot of muddy water.
The look in his eyes as he looked at Mu Youran now held more displeasure and reproach.
