Orcs don't call edible wild vegetables "vegetables" but "herbs." Like edible fruits, they were carefully selected by orc ancestors at the cost of countless lives.
Because some of them can cure diseases, they are called medicinal herbs.
Orcs only gather herbs to eat when they are starving. However, this is similar to how humans eat tree bark or Guanyin soil; if they do this for a long time, their lives could be in danger.
Moreover, orcs have an incredible appetite, and even a lot of wild grass can't fill their stomachs. Therefore, fruits with high water content and weight are more popular, but they still can't be eaten for a long time.
All orcs are pure carnivores.
Only wild animals are divided into carnivorous, vegetarian and omnivorous.
Bai Yingying finished recalling: ...It's so magical, rabbits can't eat grass.
She and Lin Xia had walked a long way, but they didn't see any fruit on any plant.
Yes, it’s just spring, where would the fruits come from?
Bai Yingying couldn't help but wonder: "Axia, where do you pick the fruit for me every time?"
"There is a magical place in the mountain behind the tribe. There is a pond with hot water. The plants near it bloom and bear fruit all year round." Lin Xia explained simply, without telling her how difficult it is to pick fruit.
Bai Yingying nodded in understanding.
It turned out to be a hot spring.
She guessed that most beastmen wouldn't pick fruit to eat, only beastmen like them who had no food to eat would pick it. That's why Lin Xia was able to pick...
Suddenly.
The two large animal skin bags in front suddenly fell to the ground, and a gray figure jumped out from them.
Lin Xia transformed into a beast, kicked his hind legs hard, jumped to a place not far away, and started fighting with a toad that jumped out.
The toad's size is similar to Lin Xia's...
It was the first time for both the original body and her to see the beasts of the Orc Continent.
Bai Yingying's face turned cold, she bent over half way, tightly gripped the dagger and walked quietly, waiting for an opportunity to help.
Lin Xia's attacks mainly rely on kicks or bites.
In addition to attacking with its long tongue, the toad's bulge on its body can also spray out green liquid. Lin Xia dodged it, and the liquid made a "sizzling" sound when it landed on branches and leaves. It was corrosive.
Generally speaking, similar size means similar strength, but it is not ruled out that some beasts have special abilities and can fight against opponents of higher levels.
For example, this toad, the liquid it sprays is corrosive, so its overall strength is naturally greater than Lin Xia. Unless something unexpected happens, the novice Lin Xia will definitely not be able to defeat it.
Bai Yingying watched Lin Xia nervously dodging the spray. After a few rounds, her hind legs were wrapped by the toad's long tongue.
Lin Xia struggled desperately, kicking and shouting without turning back: "Yingying, run away! Go back to the tribe!"
He also realized that his strength was insufficient and that defeat was only a matter of time. He only wanted Bai Yingying to escape as soon as possible before it was too late.
After Lin Xia finished speaking, she struggled to scratch the long tongue with the claws of her front limbs, or curled up her body and bit it with her teeth.
The toad knew that he would fight back, so it sprayed venom at the first moment. The venom landed on Lin Xia's gray fur, leaving a coin-sized wound that gradually expanded.
At this time, neither Lin Xia nor Toad felt Bai Yingying approaching.
As the two beasts wrestled, a human figure jumped out from the side.
A cold light flashed, and the tongue that was tightly wrapped around Lin Xia's right leg was easily cut off.
“Quack!!!”
The toad was already exerting force, and when its tongue broke, it screamed and fell backwards, rolled several times on the ground, and fled in the opposite direction.
Bai Yingying did not chase after him.
She was holding a melee weapon and was very wary of the liquid sprayed from the opponent's body. In the absence of medical care and medicine, it was best to be cautious.
Bai Yingying confirmed that the toad had really left, then turned around to check the gray-haired rabbit on the ground, "Axia, don't move. Let me check your wound."
Lin Xia had two injuries on his body, one was a corrosion wound on his back, and the other was a strangulation wound on his right hind leg.
Fortunately, they were all superficial injuries. The wound on the leg didn't need to be taken care of. The wound on the back only needed some minor treatment, and with the orc's physique, it would heal in a few days.
Bai Yingying placed Lin Xia's body on its side and said, "Bear with it. I'll use some water to wash the wound on your back."
In a short period of time, the wound expanded from the size of a coin to the size of an egg.
She was worried that the liquid would continue to seep in, so she decided to treat it first. Without any medicine, she could only give it a simple clean.
Without waiting for Lin Xia to answer, Bai Yingying swiftly took off the water bag hanging around her waist and carefully poured it on Lin Xia's back to rinse his wound.
"...Okay." Lin Xia responded belatedly after feeling the pain.
He endured the pain and asked curiously: "Yingying. What did you use just now? It's much more powerful than my claws..."
"It's a weapon sent by God," Bai Yingying explained simply, "Our safety for the next thirty days depends entirely on it."
As she spoke, she showed the dagger to Lin Xia and used it to quickly cut the toad's long tongue into pieces.
The whole process is very smooth, as easy as cutting tofu.
Products produced by the system are not ordinary products.
Lin Xia is trustworthy, and she would never put herself in danger just to hide a dagger.
Showing it at the right time can also make Lin Xia feel at ease.
"A gift from heaven?" Lin Xia's face was filled with shock. He was in a trance for a moment and said in surprise, "Yingying, don't take it out in front of any orcs again, otherwise something terrible will happen!"
Lin Xia, who was not very worldly-wise, didn't know what it meant to be guilty of possessing a treasure, but he knew that the sharpness of this "weapon" was comparable to the claws of a green-level orc.
Such a shocking and rare item must not be known to other orcs.
Bai Yingying smiled and nodded his head, "Silly A-Xia, I only show you such good things."
Lin Xia blushed again when she heard this, and thought to herself: Fortunately, it is still a beast's body, so Yingying can't see it.
Unfortunately...the ears on his head had already betrayed him.
When Bai Yingying saw the pair of long red ears, she couldn't help but put her hands together and touched them from bottom to top.
Lin Xia felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her entire body felt numb and tingling, and she was stiff and unable to move.
Bai Yingying felt that it felt very good, furry and soft, so she picked up Huixia and looked around, taking the opportunity to touch his ears again and again.
"Oh, Axia. I can't carry two big bags. I still need you to change back into human form to carry the bags." Bai Yingying touched the last handful and bent down to put Lin Xia on the ground.
After waiting for half a minute, Lin Xia didn't move.
Bai Yingying tilted her head to look at him in confusion, "Axia?"
She just stretched out her hand to check if the wound had worsened when the gray rabbit in front of her turned into a handsome young man.
