Chapter 444 Preparing for the Return Trip
When they finally returned to the tribe, Zhi, as always, rushed out as fast as he could and took on the important task of treating the snow beast cubs.
Throughout the journey, the poor cub lay listlessly in Bai and Xue's arms, looking extremely unwell. This caused concern, as no one could be sure whether it was injured or had encountered some other serious problem.
Bai and Xue stood somewhat reserved and uneasy at the cave entrance. For the snow beasts accustomed to the cold environment, the warm cave was like a scorching furnace, making them feel extremely uncomfortable.
Nevertheless, out of concern for the health of their cubs, they endured their discomfort and remained there.
The perceptive Zhiye quickly noticed the snow beast cubs' discomfort. He had always been tolerant and easygoing towards these adorable little creatures.
After a moment's thought, he led the cub out of the cave and headed straight for the wooden house where he used to live.
Upon entering the cabin, Zhi began to carefully examine the cub. After a thorough inspection, he found that the cub had not suffered any serious injuries, except for some signs of frostbite on its belly due to its fur being soaked in water.
In addition, the only noticeable injuries are some fine blood vessels caused by prolonged friction between the body and the stone. Overall, the situation is relatively optimistic and there is nothing seriously wrong.
Meanwhile, Ruan Mianmian, who had been silently watching the snow beast cub, learned of the cub's injury and immediately purchased a bottle of special anti-inflammatory spray from the system shop. She quickly handed it to Zhi, indicating that he should spray the medicine evenly on the cub's wound.
As for frostbite, it's easy to treat; it's just a tube of ointment, which Ruan Mianmian also provided.
Seeing how kind the leaders and beastmen of the Eastern tribes were to them, Bai and Xue didn't know how to express their gratitude and could only keep thanking them.
While applying medicine to the cubs, Zhi gently comforted Bai and Xue, "There's no need to be so polite. We should all look after each other."
The cub seemed to sense the kindness and let out a soft cry.
After applying the medicine, Zhi looked at the cub and smiled at Bai and Xue, saying, "This cub is very well-behaved. It should recover its energy after a night's rest."
Ruan Mianmian stepped forward and patted the cub's head. "You can stay in the cabin tonight. It's sheltered from the wind and snow, but not too hot, so it's a good place for you to live."
Bai and Xue hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.
That night, worried about the cub's condition, she went to the cabin to check on it again. Moonlight shone through the window onto the cub, which was sleeping soundly, and the wounds didn't look so glaring anymore.
The next morning, the cub woke up with bright, sparkling eyes and ran around the house, completely recovered from the previous day's lethargy. Seeing the cub regain its vitality, Bai and Xue's eyes reddened, and they once again expressed their deepest gratitude to everyone.
The tribespeople from the East simply smiled and responded, welcoming the snow beast to visit their tribe often. The cub happily ran to each person, sniffing them as if trying to remember the scent of its benefactors.
After resting in the valley for another night, the snow beast family made sure their cubs were alright before preparing to return to the snow mountain.
After all, their tribe and home are on the top of the snow-capped mountains, and the valley, though beautiful, is not their place.
Furthermore, winter is almost over, and they must return to the snow-capped mountains as soon as possible.
