Upon hearing this, Aoki's eyes shone even brighter than Shengxia's. He casually wiped his hands on the animal skin skirt, grabbed Shengxia by the armpit, picked her up, and kissed her passionately.
"Xiaxia, how are you so amazing!"
Sheng Xia's gaze suddenly shot upwards, her arm was pinched painfully, and soon her head and face were covered in saliva.
She turned her head away from Aoki's lips, her brows furrowing slightly as she struggled for a moment, and said something that sounded both coquettish and annoyed.
"Big lion, you're hurting me."
Those big hands were like pliers!
Yang Yun, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward and supported Sheng Xia's feet with her palms facing upwards to make her more comfortable.
With support beneath their feet, the sweltering summer pushed aside the green wood.
Sensing her resistance, Aoki readily released Shengxia, grinning from ear to ear.
"Xia, how much salt do you need? I'll go get it!"
Shengxia squatted down, stretched out her hands and rushed into Yang Yun's arms, hugging his neck. She turned back and gave Qingmu a charming glance, and said matter-of-factly.
"Of course, the more the better."
This is the seaside, with readily available resources. Since everyone is here, let's make more and store it to eat slowly.
By the way, I wonder if the chief has arranged for the rock salt that Guoguo's partner discovered to be excavated?
If the quantity is large, Yafatu won't have to worry about salt; if it's small, it's fine too, as they can purify sea salt.
While pondering the salt problem of the Yafatu tribe in the height of summer, Chief Lion Mountain was also thinking about the same issue.
Chief Lion Mountain excitedly arranged for the beastman to put the pink stones into the warehouse. Looking at the mountain of stones, he laughed so hard his eyes disappeared.
Snake glanced at him and teased.
"So excited? There are still two more mountains to climb."
Once they're all brought back, they'll be so excited they'll faint.
Lion Mountain's face trembled slightly, and he nodded emphatically, exclaiming, "With so much salt, we Yafatu people no longer need to be frugal with our food."
They, the females of Yafatu, achieve salt freedom!
Even if there's too much salt, more than the male can eat, he must restrain himself and not eat it all, saving it for the female and future offspring!
Oh right, he needs to set aside some for Xiaxia in advance. How much for her? Hmm... a mountain of salt, I guess!
Shengxia, unaware that she was about to own a salt mountain, was excitedly watching Qingmu and the others fill the pot with seawater.
"Yes, just fill it up. Big Lion, can you make another pot?" Not enough.
The chieftain and Crab Red stood among the orcs, watching Sheng Xia and his group of beastmen's actions with puzzlement, and asked.
"What are they doing? Is there no water to drink? How can they get seawater into the pot?" Although there isn't much fresh water here, it's enough for eating and other needs.
The chieftain turned his head and beckoned to an eagle-beast in the corner. The orc quickly ran over, grinning and asking questions.
"Chief, you were looking for me?"
The chief glanced at Sheng Xia, then turned his head and asked in confusion, "Didn't you send fresh water to the Xia Wu doctor's family?"
Fearing that the shaman Xia might have difficulty getting water, he specially arranged for water to be delivered three times a day, so that in addition to food and drink, there would be room for bathing.
The eagle-orc was stunned. He scratched his head and said, "I gave them away! I gave them a lot!"
The witch doctor said he had enough and didn't want anyone to send more, but he insisted on sending more anyway. Does the chief think he's being lazy?
No way!
How can a male be misunderstood as slacking off?!
He's the most diligent and capable!
"Okay, I understand. Find a few males right now and have them fetch water and deliver it to Doctor Xia's house."
The chieftain's eyes flickered. He thought for a moment, then lifted his foot and walked towards Shengxia. He had only taken a few steps when suddenly a chilling pressure came from ahead.
The chief struggled to breathe, feeling as if he were about to suffocate. Soon he was covered in sweat. He struggled to lift his head and unexpectedly met a pair of calm golden eyes.
He opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but he couldn't utter a word; even the blood in his body seemed to freeze.
How come Xia Wuyi's partner is so powerful?
This blue-haired, golden-eyed male didn't look very old, but even a casual glance from him could almost suffocate a beast.
The chief felt he was about to collapse, but thankfully, a sweet female voice rang out, and the oppressive aura around him diminished.
Summer was almost draining Aoki dry, but she couldn't conjure up any more pots. Suddenly realizing something, she subconsciously turned around.
"SuSu~ Why are you standing still? Is a beast coming? Hmm... isn't that the chief of the Crab Roe Tribe?"
Shengxia instructed Jiaosu not to let other beasts come over, fearing that a beast might suddenly come over while the Wolf King was lighting the fire and be accidentally injured.
She never imagined that Jiao Su thought he was being guarded to prevent beasts from spying on them, which led to the scene just now.
When Jiao Su looked at Sheng Xia, a warm glint flashed in his golden eyes. He parted his thin lips slightly and spoke in a clear and elegant voice.
"Xia, should we let him come over?"
Seeing that the chief's expression was off, Shengxia thought something had happened. Hearing Jiaosu's words, she nodded.
"Okay, let him come over, but be careful of the fire."
Hopefully, nothing has happened to any member of the clan...
The chief cautiously took a step forward, and finding no oppressive aura, he tentatively took another step forward.
Finally, he stopped at a safe and polite spot, wiped the sweat from his face, and asked with a smile.
"Medical Doctor Xia, is there not enough water? I sent a beast to fetch water. Seawater is neither safe to drink nor to bathe in."
What did the chief just say?
She didn't drink seawater, let alone bathe in it.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the large pot next to her, and suddenly realized something. She chuckled and said.
"Chief, are you referring to the water in the pot? We're making salt from seawater, and we have enough water to eat. Thank you for arranging for the beasts to deliver it every day."
With Iron White's water-related superpower, they will never lack water, no matter what they lack. Every day, beasts from the Crab Roe Tribe bring them water, saying it's arranged by the chief, and they can't be driven away no matter what.
Unable to refuse such kindness, she had no choice but to accept it.
The sounds of birds and insects drifted from afar, mingling with the sound of the waves to create a wondrous symphony.
The chief picked at his ear in disbelief, lowered his eyes, and muttered, "Haven't cleaned my ears in so long, are they blocked?"
Otherwise, how could we hear such outrageous words coming from the mouth of the upright and kind-hearted witch doctor Xia?
He must have misheard; it's not that Doctor Xia is talking nonsense!
Aoki's bright smile froze for a moment. He looked at the chief with a look of disgust and said, "Don't rummage around here. We're making salt."
It's so windy, don't let it blow inside. Xia is very clean and gets nauseous at the sight of dirty things.
The chief's sculpted features looked somewhat adorable due to his bewilderment. Upon hearing the word "salt" again, he couldn't help but begin to doubt himself.
Wolf King smiled slightly, ruffled Shengxia's hair, and whispered a gentle reminder in her ear.
"Summer, dragon's beard vegetable."
The hot, moist breath tickled her ear, and Shengxia shrank back, her eyes lighting up as she winked at Wolf King.
She didn't notice the chief's bewildered expression, and turned around to add with a smile.
"By the way, I discovered a type of seaweed that I can eat today. It will help with digestion."
Dragon's beard vegetable is low in calories, high in fiber, and has a high yield, making it very suitable for the orcs of the Crab Roe Tribe to eat.
"What?! Really? What kind of grass?"
The chief looked up at Shengxia in surprise, his eyes burning with fervor, and he opened his mouth wide to ask three questions in a row of shock.
