"Excuse me...excuse me, female, watch your step, the road is slippery."
A cheerful voice came from behind, and Sheng Xia took two steps to the side to make way for him.
Just as they moved over, they saw a huge eagle-beastman fly past, leaving two deep trails.
If you look closely, its wings look like shovels. When it glides over, it clears most of the snow off the road. After flying back and forth a few times, the road is clean.
"Wow, these wings are really useful! Yuan, do you know how to use them? Why don't you try them out?" Shi Qing's eyes widened with excitement as she looked at Yang Yuan expectantly.
Yang Yuan blinked his peach blossom eyes and shook his head in refusal: "I won't, and you should call me brother... little brother Aqing."
"No! I'm the older brother." The little golden lion wagged its tail happily, then plunged into the snow without looking back, rolling around joyfully.
The little silver wolf and the little lamb pounced after them.
Everywhere you look, there are cubs like Wolf Song and the others, frolicking and playing in the snow, their joyful sounds filling the air.
In the height of summer, holding hands with a handsome man, she looked ahead with a cheerful expression: "Huh? I can't see any leaves anymore?"
When I first arrived, the surrounding mountains were covered in greenery, but now only some withered branches remain.
Many branches fell from the mountain, but most remained standing, covered with a thick layer of snow.
I wonder what the cattle and sheep here eat...
Seeing the worry in her eyes, the Wolf King smiled indulgently, ruffled her hair, and said in a gentle and pleasant voice,
"They have reserves even when the leaves are gone, and the cattle and sheep eat dry grass."
He observed that each household had a special burrow for storing hay, though he didn't know the exact amount, but he figured if they were careful, it would be enough for a snow season.
"Xiaxia, don't think too much. After the snow, the unpleasant smells have all been covered up. Have some fun." Tie Bai's light pink eyes curved into a smile, a hint of heartache flashing in them.
His Xiaxia was always so kind, always the first to notice the orcs' survival problems, even though the orc wasn't from her tribe...
"Okay, I understand." Sheng Xia smiled gently, holding Tie Bai's hand in one hand and Wolf King's hand in the other, and happily played in the snow.
The males of the Wolf Den tribe acted quickly, and soon the entire tribe was transformed. Many cattle and sheep came out one after another and strolled leisurely in the tribe.
A gentle breeze blew by, and summer gave a delicate yawn.
"Xiaxia, come here, lie down and rest for a while."
With a light tap of his fingertips, a verdant vine meandered and transformed into a sturdy vine lounge chair, covered in tiny pink flowers.
The delicate flowers swayed in the wind, and her long eyelashes fluttered in the summer breeze. She felt a tickle in her heart from the swaying of the flowers.
She walked over quickly, touched it with delight, and felt a ticklish sensation in her palm. Her eyes lit up and she exclaimed excitedly.
"So beautiful~ I'm going to lie down and take a nap."
It's hard for any animal not to love such a beautiful rocking chair!
She turned her head to look to the side and met a pair of bright, passionate golden-glass eyes. Sheng Xia smiled playfully, her eyebrows curving upwards, and pointed to a large tree next to her that would take several beasts to encircle.
"Susu put the rocking chair behind that tree."
The sun is shining over there!
"Okay." Jiao Su obediently picked up the rocking chair and gently placed it behind the big tree, deliberately positioning her head close to the tree and her feet in the sun.
This way you can get sunlight without irritating your eyes.
Xingmu nimbly went over and laid out a piece of animal hide. Hu Xue smiled and squatted down, rubbing her hands, ready to give Shengxia a massage at any moment.
In the height of summer, I lie in a rocking chair humming a simple tune, the gentle sunlight of the snowy season warming my body.
Her little feet swung happily, and before she knew it, her eyelids grew heavy and she drifted off to sleep.
A hint of worry flashed across Wolf King's gentle eyes. He turned to look at Jiao Su and gave him a wink.
Jiao Su nodded almost imperceptibly, and they avoided the beasts and walked together to an open space.
"You noticed too?" Wolf King frowned slightly, glanced at Sheng Xia's position, and his voice remained gentle.
"Well, the specifics are still uncertain. We need to observe for another two days." A hint of anxiety flashed in Jiao Su's golden eyes, but she quickly concealed it.
"Just keep an eye on Aoki and the others, and don't mention it in front of Xiaxia," Wolf King said gently.
The matter is not yet confirmed, and saying it out loud will only make Xiaxia worry unnecessarily.
"Okay." Jiao Su nodded.
He had never seen this situation before, so he couldn't draw any conclusions.
When they returned, Shengxia was still asleep. Several males gazed at her affectionately, but none of them spoke.
I didn't sleep for very long.
In the sweltering summer heat, I vaguely heard several cubs talking.
"The ground has frozen over recently, and there's not much grass. Our sheep are almost starving to death," a boy said dejectedly.
Another boy sighed: "I heard from my brother that there are no leaves left to grow outside."
In the past, it was difficult to get leaves during the snowy season, but since we were surrounded by mountains with many trees, we could pick some leaves by picking and choosing.
The fresh leaves picked every day, along with the hay dried during the windy season, are enough for the tribe's cattle and sheep to survive a snowy season.
Now the leaves are gone...
If cattle and sheep are not well fed, they will not produce milk properly, and the food stored by everyone is simply not enough to last until the end of the snow season.
The atmosphere in the entire tribe has been somewhat tense these past two days.
There are no leaves to be seen outside?
In the height of summer, she frowned slightly and opened her eyes in confusion.
"Xiaxia's awake? Here, have some hot water." Tie Bai held a steaming cup of water to Shengxia's lips.
A strand of smooth, silky white hair slipped down, and Shengxia's eyes lit up. She picked up the long hair and played with it in circles in her hand.
With a smile in her eyes, she watched Tie Bai take a sip of water. It was a bit hot, and she wondered if honey had been added; it tasted sweet.
