In the height of summer, she secretly peeked out from behind the curtain. Luckily, there were no neighbors around, so she could easily see if anyone was there.
Recently, many animals have come to me asking for medicine. I've refused all the healthy ones, and for the sick ones, I only give them the right medicine and not a single bit more.
If people suddenly hear that she has a miracle drug, she'll never have peace again.
"Hmm, don't get so excited, keep your voice down so no one can hear you."
Chengguo covered her mouth and stared wide-eyed.
His large eyes were filled with clear-eyed folly.
I recall the recent rumors that all the males in the tribe have come to ask Shengxia for a mate.
Orange then gossiped, "So many strong, young bodies, don't you like any of them?"
"What body?" Sheng Xia asked instinctively as she packed up her deworming medicine kit.
"It's wise to enjoy life while you can in the beast world. If you keep hunting all year round, the wolf king might die one day. You should choose a few more companions."
"The windy season is coming soon. The males will go out more often to hunt more prey and store it for the snowy season. The wolf king can't afford to feed you by himself, can he?"
midsummer:"……"
Can she say that she can support herself?
She's made enough dried fish recently to last her a month. The snow season is still a long way off, so she has plenty of time to stock up on food.
Looks like I need to step up my efforts and dry some vegetables and fruits.
Having food in hand means you won't panic.
I'd rather not try to find more males.
After mating here, the male will be automatically marked, and the animal-shaped mark of his mate will appear on his body.
A male can only be loyal to one female for his entire life. A male that is abandoned will be driven out and become a stray animal.
It is unacceptable to the beast world.
What a heavy promise! How can one casually enter into a relationship?
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Do you want to lose weight?" Sheng Xia couldn't explain it to her, so she abruptly changed the subject.
"I want to! Tell me quickly, how do I lose weight?" Orange looked up with an expectant expression.
"Come to me every day, I'll give you acupuncture, and then I'll prescribe some miracle medicine. I guarantee you'll lose weight like me in three months?"
Orange looked disgusted: "You're too skinny, you don't even have any breasts, I don't want you."
Sheng Xia paused for a moment, then looked down.
It's alright, it's just that you don't have to wear a bra, right?
In this beast world where there are no bras, having too many breasts is a burden!
Yes, it's a burden!
"What is acupuncture?" Cheng Guo's voice boomed like thunder, startling her.
"Why are you suddenly shouting so loudly?" Sheng Xia looked at her with lingering fear and suspicion.
"I called you several times, but you didn't hear me, so I spoke loudly next to your ear," Orange said, pouting and looking aggrieved.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I was thinking about something else. Acupuncture involves inserting bone needles into acupoints to achieve weight loss."
"Alright, come on, let's do acupuncture now!" Orange had long been fed up with the mockery from the other females in the tribe.
She's been called "fat pig" openly or secretly since she was a child, and she'll curse back whenever she encounters it.
But despite the scolding, she would feel sad for a long time after hearing those words.
Obesity has become a source of great anxiety for her.
Now that summer is saying she can help her lose weight, she'd be willing to do anything, even beat her up, let alone just get injections!
Sheng Xia was a little surprised that she trusted herself so much; all her advice was useless.
She smiled and said, her eyes crinkling, "Okay, you lie down on the bed first. We'll try it once today, and officially start tomorrow."
"good!"

That morning.
In the height of summer, I got up early, put on insect repellent, and went to the stream to set my fish trap.
I found a spot with lots of aquatic plants and put the fish basket inside.
Then look for edible wild vegetables nearby.
During the hot season, abundant rainfall makes the plants grow exceptionally lush.
I visited this place a few days ago, and today it's covered in wild onions again!
"!!! So many green onions! Dig, dig, dig!"
In the height of summer, her eyes lit up as she carefully sprinkled the insect repellent. She watched as the grass rustled and scurried about for a while before finally settling down.
She thought to herself that the medicinal herbs in the beast world were probably all-natural, and their effects were much better than those in modern times.
After using this insect repellent, there were no insects or snakes within a 50-meter radius.
In the height of summer, after looking around to make sure no one was around, she discreetly stored the half-person-high wild onions she had just dug into her spatial storage.
In less than an hour, we harvested nearly 60 scallions that were half a person tall!
If you're careful with your diet, it'll be enough to last you a whole year!
The sky was a clear, deep blue, without a single cloud.
In the height of summer, he sat down on the spot and casually wiped the sweat from his face.
A drop of sweat was about to hit her eye, so she blinked, trying to wash the sweat away with her natural tears.
Suddenly, I saw a very familiar tree not far away.
picture……
I can't quite put my finger on what it resembles, but it feels very familiar. I'm absolutely certain it's something good.
She wiped away her tears with animal skin grass and ran over eagerly.
I stood under the tree and studied it carefully.
This tree isn't big, only about the thickness of an arm, and its trunk is perfectly straight.
The tree is about 1.7 meters tall, a little taller than in midsummer, with a bunch of fruit hanging down from the top.
She tiptoed, pulled the treetop down a little, and picked a fruit from that cluster.
It was about the size of a ping-pong ball, and she already knew what it was once she held it in her hand.
Hold your breath and carefully peel off the outer skin.
!!
It's rice!
Overjoyed, Sheng Xia burst into tears; heaven knows how she got through all those days.
There are no staple foods, just the same old meat, wild vegetables, meat, wild vegetables.
She was about to throw up.
Now, she finally has a staple food in the sweltering summer.
