Chapter 124 New Ears
Jian Mo had discovered that the quarrels between the Baizhi tribe and the Yuqi tribe were just a lot of noise but little action. Every time they attacked each other, they were particularly childish, and they never really fought.
——When they fought, at most they would lose some hair, but no blood would be shed. This was simply incredible to the beastmen.
Jian Mo felt that this was the fun between the two tribes.
After running around to many places today, Jian Mo felt a little tired after returning.
After dinner, Wu Jiong went to arrange the affairs of the Riverside Tribe. Jian Mo took a pen and lay on the bed to record what he had seen and heard in the past two days. He originally wanted to wait for him to come back before going to sleep, but he couldn't bear it halfway through, so he stuffed the paper and pen into his backpack and soon curled up under the beast skin and fell asleep.
Jian Mo had no idea when Wu Jiong came back, and he got up very late the next morning.
When Jian Mo got up, Wu Jiong was gone. He was probably arranging today's schedule with Yun Qie and others.
He yawned and went to wash up. He felt a little dizzy and uncomfortable. He reached out and touched his forehead and found that he had a fever without knowing when.
Maybe it was because he was too tired in the past two days and his body was reacting after running around.
He simply took out the dried herbs and planned to find someone from the Snow Foot Tribe to boil some water to drink.
Drink some medicine and sleep on Wu Jiong's back later, and the fever should go away.
Just as Jian Mo was thinking this, an Asian beastman saw Jian Mo, suddenly walked over and touched his forehead.
Jian Mo subconsciously dodged to the side, and when he looked up again, he saw that the Asian beastman who came was Amon from the Xiongying tribe, who was also Ban Ming's lover.
Amon: "Doctor Jian Mo, your face is a little red."
Facing Amon's concerned eyes, Jian Mo raised the herbal medicine bag without waiting for him to speak, and smiled hoarsely: "I have a little fever, just boil some medicine soup and drink it."
Amon snatched the medicine bag from his hand: "I'll go and boil it, you sit down and rest for a while. Don't you need to tell others?"
Jian Mo was indeed a little unsteady on his feet, and sat down on a tree stump in the open space: "No, it will be fine in a while."
Amon: "Then you wait here for me, I will come to you after I boil the medicine. Just boil it for a while?"
Amon's father broke his leg, and it was Jian Mo who treated him at that time. He also prescribed herbal medicine at that time, so Amon had experience in boiling medicine.
Jian Mo nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."
Amon smiled and went to work quickly.
Jian Mo sat on the tree stump for a while, but still felt a little tired. He bent his knees and fell asleep with his head on his knees.
The wind in the early morning was a little cold. After falling asleep, he curled up. He
didn't know how long he slept, but he felt someone touching his forehead.
He startled and suddenly woke up, but saw Wu Jiong squatting in front of him, looking at him with concern and worry.
"I'm fine." Jian Mo said hoarsely, "Maybe I'm too tired these two days, my body is reacting a little, I'll be fine after taking some medicine and sleeping."
Wu Jiong touched his forehead with his lips: "I haven't been out for so long before, I neglected it."
Jian Mo grabbed Wu Jiong's hand: "I'm really fine."
Others came over at some point:
"Brother Jian Mo, why don't you stay here for two days and have a good rest?"
"Yes, Doctor Jian Mo, you stay in our tribe for two more days and get well before leaving."
"Your fever is too scary, you can't go on, if you get caught in the wind on the way, it will be a big trouble."
Everyone persuaded him, including people from the Riverside Tribe, the Mengshui Tribe, and the Snow Foot Tribe.
Soon, Amon came over with medicine.
The medicine had cooled down a bit, and Jian Mo picked it up, his hands shaking so much that
he could hardly hold it. Wu Jiong fed him the medicine with a spoon, very carefully.
Jian Mo really couldn't stand the long torture of drinking the bitter and astringent medicine spoon by spoon, so he picked up the bowl, made sure the medicine was only warm, and drank it in one gulp.
Jian Mo wanted to go with the main group, but everyone's advice was very reasonable, and he really didn't have the energy to refute them one by one, so he agreed.
Wu Jiong wanted to stay and take care of him, and arranged for the people of the Riverside Tribe to follow the others.
The people of the Riverside Tribe were a little unhappy, and also wanted to stay.
Wu Jiong insisted that they set out according to the established itinerary, and asked Yun Hao to help look after them.
The people of the Riverside Tribe couldn't disobey his orders, and finally agreed.
Wu Jiong also said that he would go after Jian Mo's health improved in two days.
They had arranged everything here, and Bei Ya insisted on staying to take care of Jian Mo.
Jian Mo looked at Bei Ya's embarrassed look and gently pushed Bei Ya: "It's okay, my partner will take care of me, it will be more convenient for you to follow the main force." Bei
Ya: "I can boil medicine, and take turns with Chief Wu Jiong to take care of you or you when he is tired."
Jian Mo smiled: "Wu Jiong is also very skilled in boiling medicine."
Bei Ya insisted: "Let me stay, I am not interested in the caravan, so I can take care of you."
Jian Mo persuaded him a few times, but seeing that he was unmoved, he had to say: "Then you stay here for two days and wait for us to set off together."
Bei Ya nodded happily and went back to communicate with his companions.
The people of the Riverside Tribe were a little upset when they found out that they could not stay, but Bei Ya and his companions could stay.
Ban Ming and his companions had no choice but to prepare to set off with their heads down after being repelled by Wu Jiong.
The people of the Baizhi Tribe and the Yuqi Tribe rushed over after hearing that Jian Mo was ill, and told the people of the Riverside Tribe that they would help take care of Jian Mo and not to worry.
Jian Mo did not expect that so many people cared about him, and he felt amused and a little emotional at the same time.
After struggling for half a morning, the caravan was ready to set off.
Yun Hao came to see Jian Mo and Wu Jiong before setting off: "Doctor Jian Mo, you should take good care of yourself in the Snow Foot Tribe. If you really can't, don't chase the caravan. We will come back and reunite with you. If you want to get out, you can come again next year. You have to take care of your health."
Jian Mo: "Thank you."
After most of the troops left, Wu Jiong sent Jian Mo back to the house to sleep.
Jiujiu noticed that Jian Mo was sick, so instead of going out to play, she insisted on guarding outside the stilt house where Jian Mo and the others were temporarily staying.
At noon, Jian Mo's fever not only did not subside, but it got even worse.
Wu Jiong hurriedly went to boil new antipyretic medicine, while the people of the Snow Foot Tribe specially turned on the fire and made soft and easy-to-digest fish porridge for Jian Mo, asking him to eat more and accumulate strength to recover.
The fish porridge of the Snow Foot Tribe was very soft and light, and it should have been specially made with pearl rice.
Jian Mo forced himself to drink two sips, but he really had no appetite and couldn't drink it. He didn't want to waste the Snow Foot Tribe's kindness, and he didn't want Wu Jiong to see his remaining porridge and worry.
He opened the door and planned to bring it to Jiujiu.
Jiujiu was lying by the door. When she saw him coming out, she stared at him with her big eyes and made a pitiful sound: "Ying."
Jian Mo walked over, gently touched Jiujiu's head, and said: "Jiujiu, be good, help me finish this bowl of porridge."
The porridge had already cooled down, and Jian Mo asked Jiujiu to open his mouth and planned to pour it into his mouth.
Jiujiu was hungry for the first time, so he closed his mouth and refused to drink: "Ying."
Jian Mo said in a hoarse voice: "Be good, help me with this."
Jian Mo repeated it two or three times, and Jiujiu seemed to finally understand, and opened his mouth to let Jian Mo pour the porridge into his mouth.
Fortunately, Jiujiu's mouth was big enough, so it was no problem to pour it directly into his mouth.
Jian Mo, who was burnt, had no idea that he could use leaves or something to catch it and then pour it into Jiujiu's mouth.
After Jiujiu finished drinking, Jian Mo touched its head again: "Jiujiu is so good."
Jiujiu understood what was said, and Jiujiu stood up and rubbed Jian Mo with its big head.
Jian Mo was often rubbed by Jiujiu, and this time, in order to prevent Jiujiu's fallen hair from getting on his face, Jian Mo also subconsciously pushed it away.
As a result, he didn't know where Jiujiu rubbed, and Jian Mo felt a tingling and soreness on the top of his head. He couldn't stand immediately, and squatted down to cover his head: "Hiss."
Jiujiu was anxious, and gently scratched Jian Mo with its claws: "嘤."
After circling Jian Mo twice, Jiujiu suddenly took a few steps, flapped its wings and flew away.
Jian Mo hadn't slowed down yet, and there was nothing he could do about it.
After a while, Jian Mo reached out and carefully touched his head.
Soon, he felt two pieces of soft, slightly cool, newly grown flesh.
Jian Mo had no idea what this thing was.
He endured the stinging pain and reached out to touch it again, and then it didn't hurt that much.
Just as he was trying to figure out what was on his head, a giant wolf ran towards him.
Behind it was a chirping bird circling in the sky.
The giant wolf ran up to him and turned back into human form before it could stop. It picked up the beast skin skirt that was floating on the ground and wrapped it around its waist: "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Let me see."
Jian Mo frowned and looked at him: "It seems that something has grown on your head. Can you help me see it? I can't see it."
Wu Jiong walked over quickly, held his face, and looked at it carefully: "It seems to be a newly grown ear."
"How is that possible?" Jian Mo subconsciously touched both sides of his cheeks, "My ears are still there!"
Jian Mo has seen other orcs whose ears have been changed into beast ears. Their original ears were directly transformed into beasts. No one has ever grown another pair of ears on their head.
He was very doubtful: "Did you see it clearly?"
Wu Jiong said in a hoarse voice: "Yeah, soft, a pair of small cat ears."
Jian Mo touched the outline of the two soft things doubtfully. After touching for a long time, he found that they seemed to be cat ears.
He was not sure: "How strange, are there any beastmen like this?"
Wu Jiong: "You are not an ordinary beastman."
Jian Mo: "If you are not an ordinary beastman, you still have to follow the beastman basic law, right?"
He fiddled with his ears, trying to make them stand up, but found that it didn't work. He couldn't help but mutter: "My ears look like the ears of a folded-ear cat. Could the beastman bloodline I awakened be folded-ear cat?"
Wu Jiong didn't know what species the folded-ear cat was, but he was sure it was not the species that Jian Mo would awaken: "You may have awakened the spirit cat bloodline. Wait a few days and you will find out." Feel better, let's go back to see Qing Kuang."
Wu Jiong grabbed Jian Mo's wrists and said, "Don't touch your ears, they are red and swollen."
Jian Mo: "Okay, it's just a little weird."
Wu Jiong kissed his forehead and said, "It's not weird, it looks good. The beastmen originally have all kinds of beastialized parts. Haven't you seen the wings of the beastmen from the Baizhi tribe?"
Jian Mo was dizzy from fever and thought for a while: "It seems so."
After Jian Mo's ears turned into cat ears, people from the Xuejiao tribe, the Baizhi tribe and the Yuqi tribe came to see him.
Everyone comforted him, saying that his ears might not have developed fully yet and would develop after a while.
Several tribes also sent all kinds of delicious meat, nuts, wild vegetables and other foods so that Jian Mo could replenish himself and rest.
It was fine if the people from the Baizhi and Yuqi tribes sent gifts, but Jian Mo did not expect that the people from the Xuejiao tribe would also send gifts.
They actually had a trading relationship with the people from the Xuejiao tribe, exchanging supplies and borrowing from each other, and the two sides could not be said to have any friendship.
The people from the Xuejiao tribe who sent things said to Jian Mo seriously: "Development is a big deal for every beastman and sub-beastman. They must eat well and be well-fed. Doctor Jian Mo, please do not take it lightly."
Jian Mo thanked them in a hoarse voice: "I know, thank you."
The people from the Xuejiao tribe emphasized again: "You're welcome. If you need anything, you can tell us directly. We can help."
Everyone was sure that Jian Mo had grown a new ear, and they were unwilling to let him do anything, so they let him lie down and rest.
His personal affairs were handled by Wu Jiong, and Bei Ya considerately helped with other things.
For a while, Jian Mo was bored.
Jian Mo's fever had not subsided yet, and his newly grown ears were limp and could not stand up. He lay on the bed, but no matter how he lay, he felt uncomfortable and became irritated.
He had an extra pair of ears, and his hearing became extremely sensitive. All the sounds outside, no matter how loud or small, were poured into his ears. He was completely unable to ignore the ambient sounds, which made him a little nervous.
Wu Jiong kissed him, comforted him, and gave him a massage, but he couldn't relieve his discomfort. He could only hold him and urge him to sleep quickly.
Wu Jiong: "It may take some time to get used to it."
Jian Mo sighed: "I'm really not used to it. I don't want to lie on the bed anymore. Can I lie on the small platform outside?"
Anyway, with his current hearing, he can hear the sounds he should and shouldn't hear whether he is lying in the house or outside.
It's better to go outside, bask in the sun, and look at the snow-capped mountains, so that he will feel better.
Wu Jiong agreed, wrapped him in a beast skin blanket, took him to the small platform outside, changed back into beast form, and let him lie on him.
The giant wolf's body was soft and warm, and its long fur was very smooth. Jian Mo finally felt a little more comfortable lying on him.
The weather was very good today, the sun was shining brightly, and the sky was full of clouds.
In the turquoise lake below, there was a group of small animals similar to river vultures practicing catching fish.
These small animals were thinner and cuter than river vultures, and had a big furry tail.
They looked very cute swimming around in the water.
Jian Mo watched for a while, and suddenly waved his hand, asking them to come over.
The little river vampires were very well behaved and swam over quickly: "Brother Jian Mo, what's the matter?"
Jian Mo lay on the giant wolf, pointed his finger under the small platform, and said lazily: "There are some big fish underneath, swimming around and making a lot of noise. Can you help me catch them?"
The little river vampires didn't believe it and widened their eyes: "Brother Jian Mo, are you kidding? How do you know there are big fish underneath?"
Jian Mo pointed to the pair of newly grown cat ears on the top of his head: "I heard it. Can you help me take a look?"
Although the little river vampires didn't believe it, they still dived down to check after hearing his request.
Soon, a small river vampire floated up with a big, plump fish longer than himself in its mouth, and shouted excitedly: "There really is a big fish down there!"
Immediately afterwards, several more small river vampires floated up with fish in their mouths, and said excitedly:
"I was wondering why we couldn't find the fish, it turns out they are hiding down there!"
"There is a fish nest down there, we will block it once we dive down!"
"Brother Jian Mo, you are so awesome!"
Not only the little river vampires, but also the big river vampires who were watching the cubs hunting to ensure their safety raised their heads and looked at Jian Mo in surprise: "Doctor Jian Mo, your hearing is so good, isn't it?"
Jian Mo sighed: "This is what is bothering me right now."
The giant wolf rubbed his head with its chin and said softly: "It will be fine in two days."
Seeing this, the big river vampires drove the little river vampires out: "Then let's stay away and won't bother you here."
Jian Mo waved: "Thank you."
Sure enough, the big and small river vampires swam to the other side of the lake.
Jian Mo looked at their figures and suddenly thought: "Does Zhou Fu have river beetle blood?"
When he first met Zhou Fu, he felt that Zhou Fu's round face, round eyes, and pale skin did not look like a beastman from the Riverside Tribe.
The giant wolf whispered: "Yes, his father is a beastman from the Snowfoot Tribe."
Jian Mo exclaimed: "It turns out that the tribes here have always been communicating with each other. I don't think I have seen his father. Is he traveling?"
Giant Wolf: "His father and father are in the Xiongying Tribe. He moved to the Riverside Tribe after he and Jiuyin became a couple."
Jian Mo: "I didn't know. Zhou Fu has too many friends. I thought he was from the Riverside Tribe."
The two chatted for a while, and Jian Mo fell asleep again.
After drinking the antipyretic, his fever slowly subsided. Although it was still a low fever, it was not as severe as in the morning. He estimated that it would be better tomorrow.
Jian Mo was very happy. In the evening, he put on a hat and planned to go out to eat with everyone.
Jiujiu was still waiting outside. Seeing that he was finally well, he was so happy that he kept jumping around. Ying Ao was obviously a little excited.
Jian Mo rubbed Jiujiu and Ying Ao: "Thank you, I'm fine. Let's go eat."
Jiujiu: "Jiu——"
Jian Mo smiled: "I'm really fine."
Wu Jiong and Jian Mo went to have dinner.
In order to take care of Jian Mo, the people of the Snow Foot Tribe made soup for him and cooked fish soup that was easy to digest.
Jian Mo slept for a long time, and it was interesting to sit in the crowd and listen to everyone chatting.
Although there is still a lot of noise outside, it won't be uncomfortable as long as no one shouts.
While listening to people chatting, Jian Mo heard a sound and suddenly turned to look at the lake.
He saw that Jiujiu and Ying Ao had jumped into the lake at some point and were swimming happily in the lake with the little river cicadas.
It's not surprising that Ying Ao can swim, Ying Ao looks like an almighty winged beast.
Jiujiu is so big, but it can actually float in the lake and paddling with its big wings. It's simply a miracle.
Jian Mo's eyes were full of surprise.
The people of the Snowfoot tribe followed his line of sight and looked into the lake. After seeing Jiujiu and Yingao, they smiled and commented: "Your two flying beasts swim well." The people of the Snowfoot tribe
: "Much better than the group of beastmen from the Baizhi tribe when they were in beast form."
Jian Mo was curious: "They can also swim in beast form?"
The people of the Snowfoot tribe laughed: "They were competing with the people of the Yuqi tribe - although their swimming styles were messy, the two tribes tied."
Jian Mo thought of the fat Jiujiu who refused to admit defeat, and raised his thumb in admiration: "Awesome."
