Chapter 140 Clean Up
After the chief's announcement, the tribe felt a sense of tranquility as if they had returned to their roots.
The males indulged their appetites and ate up all the remaining food in the tribe, and then the orcs organized themselves to find many living things to take away.
However, fire is very difficult to carry. If they cannot use fire to cook food, it will be difficult for females to survive for a long time.
Zhou Manman thought about it again and again, and finally went to the clan leader to give him two sets of fire sticks.
The clan leader's eyes dimmed as he looked at the fire stick that ignited as soon as it was blown.
"If we have this...fire stick, it can help us solve a lot of problems."
The chieftain raised his eyes to look at the shy female, "What did you say you wanted?"
"I want some charcoal. I have a fire starter, but the wood is too wet to start a fire."
The patriarch nodded. He had not thought of this before.
"anything else?"
Zhou Manman was stunned. What else?
"Do you think there's anything else we need to prepare?"
Females are more careful and do think more than he does.
Zhou Manman pondered for a while, then said, "The weather on the road is bad, so if you have animal skins or something like that, you can take them with you."
As for other things, Zhou Manman herself hasn’t thought of it yet.
After that, someone took them to the fire room. The charcoal in the fire room was very good charcoal that could burn for a long time. In fact, even without her fire starter, it was still possible to protect the burning charcoal, but it would require more manpower.
When they reached the cave entrance, the orc did not take them down.
He pointed inside, "The cave for the charcoal fire is on the right, the deepest one."
The fire room only collapsed on the outside, not the inside, but he was still afraid and decided not to get involved.
After a while, the orc was a little worried and reminded again: "Hurry up."
"Manman, you stay here, I'll go down and get it for you."
"It's okay, let's go together."
Carrying charcoal is a dangerous thing in itself. She even wanted to go alone. How could she let Lin take the risk?
Zhou Manman was firm in her attitude, so Lin had no choice but to go in with her.
They had been here before, so they soon arrived at the cave where the charcoal was stored. There were piles of charcoal inside. The cave was spacious and huge, and the charcoal was piled to the top. Zhou Manman couldn't even estimate how big the cave was for a moment.
"Lin, can you help me see if there is anyone there?"
Lin knew what she wanted to do, nodded and walked to the door.
Zhou Manman found an inconspicuous place and put all the charcoal into the space.
When she had almost collected everything, she stood up and shouted to the door, "Lin, I'm done! Come with me and get some."
When leaving, Zhou Manman was still feeling regretful. He wondered how long the tribe had accumulated so much charcoal.
It would be fine if she took all of it, but it would be a shame if she couldn't take everything. However, she didn't know how much the clan leader would take, and she was afraid that if she took too much, it would arouse suspicion.
After getting the charcoal, the two returned to the house by the river.
Zhou Manman stood outside the house, feeling quite sad.
You know, she has lived here for almost half a year, which is the place where she has stayed the longest since she came to this world.
She watched the house being built bit by bit, and that joy seemed to still remain in her heart.
But in the blink of an eye, the house collapsed.
Although the flowers in the yard were hit by the fallen stones, they tenaciously grew out from the other side of the stones, with fresh new buds emerging, as if the disaster had little impact on them.
Zhou Manman saw the stone mill in the yard and went forward to take a look. Although it was hit, it was not broken.
Zhou Manman looked up and surveyed his surroundings, then reached out and put the millstone into the space.
Finally, she held Lin's hand and stood in front of the yard, feeling filled with emotion.
Lin squeezed the little female's hand slightly, "We will have another house in the future."
Zhou Manman raised her eyes slightly and said, "Okay."
Fortunately, Lin is still by her side, and no matter how many difficulties she encounters in the future, she will be able to overcome them one by one.
Thinking of Xiao Mi, Zhou Manman couldn't help but lower his eyes.
I don’t know how he is now. Anlina’s words shocked her heart. She didn’t know what was wrong. She should hate Xiao Mi the most. Obviously...
If he came back and saw that they had all left, he would probably be furious.
Thinking of being able to anger Xiao Mi, Zhou Manman raised his head and said, "Let's go, Lin."
"You ride all over me."
Lin turned into a beast, and after Zhou Manman sat down, he listened to Lin say, "Let's get some food too, Manman. I know you have a lot, but we can't be too obvious."
Zhou Manman nodded.
Lin was silent for a moment, feeling somewhat confused. After struggling for a long time, he continued, "Manman, you must hide your spatial talent well and never expose it, no matter who you are in front of."
At this point in time, this space talent is even more dangerous than the wood talent.
If someone knew about Manman's spatial talent now, Lin could even imagine that many things in the tribe would be put into Manman, without considering whether she could bear it or the fact that she was just a female.
In the face of life, everyone is selfish.
It’s even worse on the road, because who knows when a female will be hungry and come to Manman for food.
If Manman says that there is no more at that time, will they believe it?
Lin's heart tightened and he told the little female everything he was thinking of, fearing that he would be too soft-hearted.
Zhou Manman leaned against Lin's neck and listened carefully.
"I'll remember that, Lin."
She knew that in the world of the jungle, the strong prey on the weak and in the face of life and death, there would be no preferential treatment just because she was a female.
The tribe became unusually busy again, searching for things under the wreckage of houses. Most of the houses had collapsed, but some had not. The orcs didn't care whose house it was. Whoever was faster would get into the house and put the things away. If there was smoked jerky, that would be even better. Some people even fought over it.
Zhou Manman sat on Lin and walked past them.
After a while, Zhou Manman had an idea and she grabbed Lin's fur.
"Let's get some more water, Lin."
Although it is raining now, who can guarantee that it will rain all the way? What if it clears up one day? It will become dry again as before.
The two went back to fill up their water bottles and then went to get the meat. The meat distributed was specially smoked jerky made by the tribe. Each female could get half of a pig.
This quantity sounds like a lot, but when the fresh meat on the road is finished, we will have to eat dried meat.
There is nothing unknown ahead, and no one will complain about not having enough.
Some males were dissatisfied and came out to make trouble, asking bluntly whether the tribe leader had hidden the dried meat, otherwise why there was only so much.
The orc who was distributing the dried meat explained, but it was no use, he was still making a fuss, and some of the orcs next to him were aroused by him.
There was only a "swish" sound.
The orc's head and body were suddenly separated and transformed into a beast shape. A man next to the chief slowly walked over.
Zhou Manman felt uncomfortable watching it and tried to hold back her nausea.
"Let's go, Lin."
