"I didn't follow you. I came here because the fruits here are bigger. You think too much."

Hu Jiaojiao picked a grapefruit as big as a football and held it in front of her to prove herself.

"You are obviously! You..." Hu Jing was so angry that she was about to continue to confront Hu Jiaojiao, but Lu Mian'er beside her pulled her back and shook her head at her.

"Forget it, Hu Jing, let's go to the side to pick fruits."

Lu Mian'er was weak in character and never fought for anything.

"Mian'er, you are bullied by her because you are too easy to talk to." Hu Jing was indignant, but still carried the animal skin bag and moved to another place with Lu Mian'er.

Hu Jiaojiao turned her head and picked the fruits as if nothing had happened, ignoring Hu Jing's angry eyes.

After the two of them changed positions, she moved to the side with the animal skin bag.

"Ahem, the fruits here seem to be bigger..."

"Fox Jiaojiao!" Hu Jing couldn't bear it anymore and roared angrily.

This fox Jiaojiao must be deliberately annoying!

"What are you doing? I'm just picking fruits, why are you so fierce? I didn't steal yours. There are so many fruits here, only you are allowed to pick them, and I am not allowed to come over to pick them?"

Fox Jiaojiao squinted her eyes and picked her ears, looking innocent.

It must be said that Hu Jing is really a female man, and she has practiced the lion roar skill to perfection.

"What's the matter?"

Hearing the quarrel, the tribe leader immediately came over.

"Tribe leader, I pick fruits seriously, and Hu Jing always affects me." Fox Jiaojiao immediately complained.

She didn't lie, she was just picking fruits diligently!

It was Hu Jing who had a prejudice against her and scolded her whenever he saw her. This was none of his business.

Upon hearing this, the clan leader immediately frowned and looked at Hu Jing, "Hu Jing, picking fruits is everyone's business. You either pick them seriously or don't come and don't disturb Hu Jiaojiao."

"Me!" Hu Jing looked aggrieved, but couldn't find a word for a while.

"Forget it, Hu Jing, let's ignore Hu Jiaojiao and pick fruits..." Lu Mian'er grabbed Hu Jing's clothes and whispered.

Hu Jing looked back at Lu Mian'er, angry and aggrieved, "Mian'er, I'm helping you."

Mian'er didn't speak for him, and he also tried to stop him.

"Okay, everyone, concentrate on picking fruits." The clan leader gave an order, and the surroundings finally returned to peace.

The only sounds left were the leaves being torn off and the fruits hitting the ground.

When the females couldn't pick enough fruits from the higher trees, the males would transform into beasts and knock the fruits off the trees, while the females would pick them up from the bottom.

In half a day, they had a great harvest.

They picked hundreds of kilograms of grapefruits and persimmons.

Even so, these fruits would not be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of each beastman when they were distributed in winter.

"Okay, let's stop here today. Let's all take a break. We will return to the tribe soon."

The chief strictly managed the time and didn't want the females to get into danger outside the tribe.

After hearing the chief's words, the females all sat under the trees to rest, and some took a few fruits to satisfy their appetite.

The males were busy packing the fruits with animal skins and vines, as they would have to carry several hundred kilograms of fruits back soon.

Fox Jiaojiao also picked a persimmon and sat next to Lu Mian'er to chew it.

The persimmons here are hard and crunchy. Except for the slightly astringent skin, the flesh inside is very sweet and delicious.

She was wondering while chewing the persimmon.

Why haven't she seen the stray beastmen yet? Could it be that her dream was just a simple nightmare?

Was she overthinking?

Just as she was wondering, Lu Mian'er suddenly stood up and walked towards the distant woods.

Fox Jiaojiao was refreshed and immediately bit off the last bite of the persimmon, threw away the core in the middle, and followed carefully, not daring to slack off.

However...

she really has no talent for tracking.

Not long after they walked, Lu Mian'er showed up with the aura of a protagonist and found her.

"Fox Jiaojiao, you..." Lu Mian'er looked at Fox Jiaojiao suspiciously.

"I want to pee! I'm scared to be alone, so let's go together!"

Fox Jiaojiao suddenly had an idea and blurted out an excuse. After that, she walked forward and walked side by side with Lu Mian'er.

"Oh." Lu Mian'er nodded and didn't care.

Beastmen are not as particular as humans. Sometimes for safety, it is common for males and females to excrete together. Lu Mian'er didn't think there was anything wrong.

The two walked for a while, and when they were sure that the smell would not drift to the place where they picked fruits, they found a bush to stop.

Lu Mian'er took off her beast skin skirt and squatted in the bushes.

Seeing Foxy standing there motionless and looking around, she looked puzzled.

"Foxy, don't you want to relieve yourself?"

"Ah... yes, I have to find a good place, you go first, no need to wait for me..."

Foxy smiled awkwardly, lowered her head and groped around, and found a dense bush. After making sure that no one would see her, she squatted down with her fur skirt closed.

She just looked around and didn't find anything unusual around. She

breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the dream was just her overthinking. There were no stray beastmen here. She said, how could Lu Mian'er, as the heroine, die!

Just thinking about it, Foxy really felt the urge to pee.

She glanced at Lu Mian'er who hadn't finished dealing with it yet, and was about to deal with it on the spot, when suddenly, there was a rustling sound from the bushes next to her.

Foxy Jiaojiao's body froze, and when she looked back, she saw a black python raising its upper body from the bushes, its scarlet inverted triangle eyes staring straight at her, spitting out its tongue.

She swallowed unconsciously, and her mind went blank.

This black python was exactly the same as the beast form of the wandering orc she saw in her dream...

"Hiss~" There really is a female here, haha, it seems that the female didn't lie to us!

An evil smile flashed in the eyes of the black python.

Two more beasts emerged from the bushes, a striped tiger with one ear missing, and a gray wolf with one eye blind.

"Roar!" This little female is so tender, simply the best!

"Awooo!" She's much prettier than the female from yesterday, I like her, hehe...

Seeing the two females in the bushes, the wandering beastmen were so excited that saliva dripped from their fangs.

"Ah!" Lu Mian'er turned around and saw three terrifying wandering beastmen. She was so scared that she fell to the ground.

The place where fruits are picked is usually only frequented by herbivorous beasts, and it is generally safe. Lu Mian'er didn't expect to see such a terrifying beast, and she was stunned for a while.

At this time, Hu Jiaojiao suddenly came back to her senses.

"Lu Mian'er, they are stray orcs, run!"

Foxy Jiaojiao jumped out of the bushes like a spring, ran over, grabbed Lu Mian'er's arm, and ran to the place where the fruits were picked.

Although the stray orcs were vicious and terrifying, they were all disabled and not as strong as the orcs in the tribe. As long as they ran to where the chief was, they would be safe.

The three stray orcs laughed and chased after them immediately.

"Ah..."

Lu Mian'er suddenly screamed in pain and fell to the ground. His trembling voice was full of fear.

"Foxy Jiaojiao, I, I sprained my ankle..."
