Long Mo quickly returned to the yard. Seeing that no one was at home, he quickly entered the wooden house, found the bed where the kids slept and began to search.
"Not here?"
He turned the bed upside down, but couldn't find the animal skin clothes.
Long Mo frowned. He clearly remembered that Hu Jiaojiao said yesterday that she wanted to use the animal skin clothes as a mattress. Could it be in her wooden house?
Thinking of this, he went to Hu Jiaojiao's cabin to look around. He didn't see any animal skin clothes, but he saw a pile of bone needles on the ground.
Long Mo paused slightly. These things are so sharp. Is she using these things to sew clothes?
A dark and inexplicable light flashed in his dark golden eyes. His eyes darkened, and he picked up a bone needle and stabbed it into his finger.
There was a stinging pain, but Long Mo remained calm. The bone needle had a large hole, and blood beads the size of soybeans appeared on his finger in an instant. He thought of what Hu Jiaojiao had suffered when she used these bone needles.
He immediately clenched his hands and let the blood drop drop by drop, his eyes filled with regret.
After a moment, he turned around and walked away from the wooden house quickly.
...
Hu Jiaojiao came to the river with an empty stone bucket.
Although there was a river not far from her home, there were not many fish. On the contrary, there were more fish in another tributary in the tribe.
After walking for about 20 minutes, she finally reached the river. She put down the stone bucket and began to look for a suitable place to go down to the river to catch fish.
There were several trees similar to willows on the river bank, with long branches hanging down, but the branches were bare and the leaves had long fallen off.
The river was not deep. When Fox Jiaojiao walked to the middle of the river, the water only reached her knees.
The river water was originally clear, but it became turbid after Fox Jiaojiao stepped into the river. However, this did not affect her catching fish. Beastmen have excellent eyesight and can keenly see the movements of fish from the turbid water.
Foxy grabbed a handful of fish feed from the air and scattered it around. Soon, the fish, who had never experienced the "evil heart", smelled the food and swam over.
In the beast world, except for the fish-loving beasts like cats, almost no beasts would prey on fish, so the fish here were basically not alert.
Unlike when she was a child in the countryside, the fish in the ditch were afraid of being caught, so they were very smart and would not be easily caught. They would swim away at the slightest disturbance.
Foxy rolled up her sleeveless arms, bent down and began to fish.
However...
imagination is rich, reality is skinny.
She had no experience in hunting. Although the fish here were not alert, they were not stupid. Every time Foxy touched the tail, they swam away.
Or she caught the fish and took it out of the water in surprise, but the fish's tail swung wildly and hit her face several times. If she didn't catch it, it would run away...
After working for a long time, Foxy's back and waist ached, but she only caught a fish that was smaller than the ones the kids caught yesterday.
It was just... as long as a finger.
Foxy stood in the middle of the river, feeling depressed.
"I didn't expect that I'm not even as good as the cubs..."
After a long time, she comforted herself: "Forget it, catching fish is not for me."
Fox Jiaojiao released the small fish, and when no one was around, she returned to the shore and took out seven large fish weighing more than ten kilograms from the space, put them in the stone bucket, and then clapped her hands with satisfaction.
"Well, a big harvest today."
She said that she "caught" them, and no one objected, right?
Fox Jiaojiao picked up the stone bucket and prepared to go back. She planned to clean the fish in the river at the door to prevent the fish in this river from being afraid of beastmen in the future, so that it would be difficult for the cubs to catch fish. As soon as
she turned around, she saw a female standing behind her.
It was Lu Li's mother, Lu Mu.
Seeing the person coming, Fox Jiaojiao ignored her directly and walked around with the bucket.
"Fox Jiaojiao, you caught so many fish? These fish look very fat..." But the mother deer was one step ahead of her and stopped her, staring at the fish in her hand with shining eyes.
Recently, her baby cub Lu Li has been clamoring to eat fish, saying that the fish that Fox Jiaojiao made for those little bastards is delicious, so she asked where they caught fish and came to take a look.
Unexpectedly, she really ran into it. She
thought that the fish in the river were not much, but she didn't expect that the fish caught by Fox Jiaojiao was so big, which is equivalent to a small prey!
The mother deer was immediately greedy, and while talking, she reached out to touch the fish in the stone bucket.
"Hu Jiaojiao, so many fish must be very heavy, why don't I help you get a few, you don't have to thank me, just give me half of the fish, I will reluctantly forgive you for what you did to Lu Li before."
Lu Mu usually loves to take advantage of others. When she saw so much meat, she forgot how fiercely Hu Jiaojiao had beaten Lu Li before, and only remembered that she was an easy target.
Who knew...
"Pa!"
Before her hand touched the fish, Hu Jiaojiao raised her hand and hit the back of her hand hard.
"Hiss!" Lu Mu took back her hand in pain, put it to her mouth and blew, looked down, and saw that the back of her waxy yellow hand was red.
Hu Jiaojiao held a grudge, she had not forgotten the last time Lu Li took Ling'er away, Lu Mu was unreasonable, this slap was full of strength.
The mother deer's hands were visibly swollen.
Well... the advantage of beastmen is that they are strong and can hurt people.
"Don't bother, I can do it myself. Besides, I still remember the grudge between Lu Li and my Ling'er. Even if you forget it, I won't forget it." The foxy mother said coldly.
"You! You little bitch, you actually hit me!"
The mother deer's eyes widened, her face flushed, and she didn't know whether she was angry or in pain.
"I'll give you another chance, send all these fish to my house, otherwise I will tell the tribe leader about you hitting me! Let the tribe leader drive you out of the tribe!"
She threatened with a dark face.
A sarcastic face looked vicious and greedy.
The mother deer only remembered that Lu Cuicui was also driven out of the tribe for hurting people before, so she was very confident.
The foxy girl sneered and shrugged nonchalantly, with an innocent look on her beautiful face:
"Who hit you? I didn't hit you. You tried to steal my fish and got bit by it. How can you blame me?"
"You little bitch, you're still lying..." The mother deer was so angry that she vomited blood. In the past, she was the only one who acted like a rogue to others, and she had never been played like a rogue by others.
Foxy Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows, "Who can prove that I lied? I said you stole my fish!"
The mother deer looked back and saw no one. Thinking that the patriarch was partial to Foxy Jiaojiao, she didn't dare to shout anymore.
Foxy Jiaojiao was too lazy to waste time with her, so she continued to walk home. She still had to go back to make delicious food for her cubs!
Unexpectedly, the mother deer suddenly saw the figure of an orc passing by in the distance, and suddenly sat down in front of Foxy Jiaojiao, wailing and rolling on the ground.
"Oh! Help! Vixen stole the fish I worked so hard to catch, and she wants to kill me..."
"Everyone, come and see, Vixen beat my cub so hard that he couldn't get out of bed for a month, and she wants to kill me. How can there be such a vicious female!"
